Nixon's Friends Fear Ike's Ready To Bounce Him
(Compiled from United Press
by Daily Kansan Editors)
WASHINGTON—Vice President Richard M. Nixon is today's election-year storm center.
If he is forced off the 1956 Republican presidential ticket, a likely substitute would be former Gov. Thomas E. Dewey, of New York. Mr. Dewey probably would accept.
If he is forced off the 1956 Republican presidential ticket, a likely substitute would be former Gov. Thomas E. Dewey, of New York. Mr. Dewey probably would accept. He Enlisted.
In regard to his state of health, the President said in his broadcast to the nation Tuesday, "In my own case this question (whether or not to seek a second term), which was undecided before my recent illness, has been complicated by the heart attack I suffered on Sept. 24 last year.
"But, let me make on thing clear. As of this moment, there is not the slightest doubt that I can perform, as well as I ever have, all of the important duties of the presidency. This I say because I am actually doing so and have been doing so for many weeks."
Ike Explains
"Aside from all normal considerations, I have been faced with the fact that I am classed as a recovered heart patient. This means that to some undetermined extent, I may possibly be a greater risk than is the normal person of my age. My doctors assure me that this increased percentage of risk is not great."
Other aspects of the decision of the President to run for re-election are the attitudes exhibited by the Democrats, economists, and nation around the world.
Democrats squared off today to exploit President Eisenhower's health as an issue in a campaign against a "part-time" president.
Democrats To Fight
Their reaction to Mr. Eisenhower's second-term announcement ranged from outright defeatism in some quarters to cheers in others. The cheers came from those who said they now would face the man who alone must take responsibility next November for the Eisenhower administration record.
In Boston, Dr. Paul Dudley White, heart specialist who supervised President Eisenhower's convalescence after his heart attack, said today the President's decision to run for a second term appears "all right to me."
"We can lick anybody they pu up," said former Truman President Donald J. Trump. **COMMENTS:**
In Washington, Sen. William F. Knowland (R-Calif.) warned Republicans today that despite President Elsenhower's decision to run for reelection "the campaign of 1956 must not be taken for granted."
West European newspapers today lauded President Eisenhower's personal courage in deciding to run again but many hinted that the Republicans should ditch Vice President Richard Nixon.
"Today at his press conference President of the United States of America Eisenhower said he felt able to run for office this year."
Moscow radio informed the Russian people Tuesday night of President Eisenhower's decision in a one-sentence announcement which said:

March Lion Is Quiet So Far, But Next 24 Hours Will Tell
Mr. March Lion appears some-what subdued today, in contrast with his usual blustery, windy entrance onto the March weather scene but he'll probably begin to snarl up clouds of dust and perhaps spit rain and snow within the 24 hours.
Showers or scattered thunderstorms are forecast for southeast Kansas tonight with temperatures dropping in the west.
March is usually a period of watching and waiting for farmers over the state. High winds can reduce crop potentials to a minimum, kicking up valuable topsoil, especially if the month is fairly dry.
In March of 1952 winds up to 75 miles an hour whipped across the campus, collapsing the steel framework of the new science hall, now Malott Hall, breaking windows in Marvin Hall, and uprooting several large trees in front of Watkins Hospital.
Damage to the campus was $30,-
000 to $40,000.
O Boy! 14 Women In Bathing Suits
Models will be Betty Kogel, Mission, and Sylvia Frost, Kansas City, Mo, both sophomores; Janice Kibler, Topeka; Kenar Howard, Wichita; Nancy Olsen, Delaffel, Wis.; Ruth Stephenson, Kansas City, Mo; Janis Hartell, Plattstburg, Mo; Adriance Armsby, Kansas City, Mo; Paralee Neeley, Stafford; Jayne Callahan, Cleveland, Ohio; Loren Hunt, Liberal; Sarah Waddell, Salina, juniors; Sally Rendig, Lee's Summit, Mo, and Lucy McKeithan, Bartlesville, Okla. seniors.
The Newcomers Group, a part of the University Women's Club, is for faculty wives, women on the University staff, and staff members' wives, who have been at the University less than two years.
Bathing suits will be modeled by 14 women students at the Newcomers Group fashion show at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, March 7 in the Student Union Ballroom.
What! No Hadacol?
NEWMARKET, Ont. (U.P.)—Mrs. Nellie Prosser, 51, told the judge she had bought 10 bottles of liquor and 96 pints of beer every month for the last four months "strictly for medicinal purposes." She was fined $100 for bootlegging.
Eisenhower Files In Two States
WASHINGTON (U.R.) President Eisenhower today signed legal documents needed to permit the filing of slates of delegates in his favor in California and Wisconsin.
Mr. Nixon, Sen. Knowland and Gov. Knight, who previously had been waging a struggle for control of the California delegation, had announced earlier that they would unite behind Mr. Eisenhower.
Under a new California law, the President chose a committee there to select delegates. He named Vice President Richard M. Nixon, Sen. William F. Knowland, and Gov. Goodwin J. Knight.
The laws of both states expressly required written consent before slates of delegates could be授予 in the President's name.
In Wisconsin, the President selected 30 delegates headed by Gov. Walter J. Kohler.
The President's decision to consent to use of his name in the Wisconsin primary came less than 30 hours before the filing deadline.
Little Symphony Concert Praised

The Little Symphony Orchestra presented its annual spring concert Wednesday in Strong Auditorium, and many of those who attended probably wished that they could hear more from this group.
Audience Roars At 'Menaechmi'
Sly winks, chats with the audience by the actors in a comedy of errors gave a capacity house good reason to feel intertwined when "Menaechmi" opened Wednesday in the Union Ballroom. The human play, which was co-written by Suzanne Theatre productions, will play at 8 p.m. today. Friday, and Saturday,
The play itself its amusing, but the enterprising actors are responsible for most of the humor. Although adapted for modern taste, "Menaechmi" is sometimes too obvious because situations and speeches are often anticipated before they occur and the humor is lost. The cast overcomes this with well-delivered speeches.
William Duke Howze, Mission junior, is especially proficient at delivering lines. Playing Menaechmus Sosicles, a visitor to the city of Epiphanes, he plays both of his historical twin brother, Howze acts both of the plays' best scenes.
Mistaken for his brother, Menaechmus, played by Jack Jordan, DeSoto freshman, Sosicles is given a dinner by Erotium, a courtesan and his brother's mistress, played by Joyce Carol Rea, Branson, Mo. junior. After the dinner, Menaechmus Sosicles reels from Erotium's house obviously more wined than dined.
Sosicles later feigns insanity and this gives Howze his second opportunity for a humorous situation. With a repertoire of excellent stage movement and good delivery, he and his brother's father-in-law, played by Dennis Richards, Lawrence senior, act the scene perfectly.
John Husar, Chicago freshman, is outstanding as Cylindrus, the courtesan's dull-witted cook.
Max Dale, Abbbyville sophomore, as Peniculus; Lynn Miller, Dodge City freshman, as Messenio, and Mary Jo Lowman, Lawrence sophomore, as the wife of Menaechnus are all entertaining.
Charles Dodrill, instructor in speech and drama and assistant director of University Theatre, directs the play.

The program, directed by Dean Thomas Gorton of the School of Fine Arts, was entirely contemporary music. Four out of the five numbers were written within the last eight years.
Particularly noteworthy were the "Three Short Pieces for Chamber Orchestra" by George Green, instructor in music theory. There was prolonged applause for this sensitive and delicate work.
Berkeley's "Four Poems of St. Theresa of Avila" were well interpreted by bass-barton Reinhold Schmidt, professor of voice. The four compositions were varied, one reminding the listener of an English folk song, another of a hymn.
Marcus Hahn, assistant professor of music education, displayed fine and clear technique in his flute solo passages in Hanson's "Serenade for Solo Flute, Harp, and String Orchestra."
Other numbers - on the program were Hindemith's "Concerto for Trumpet, Bassoon, and Strings," and Ravel's "Mother Goose Suite."
Hall-Shaw Battle Rages
Mr. Shaw said there would be no shortage of employees if they were not assigned out-state party chores by Gov. Hall and instead "would take care of the work for which they receive their salary."
PARIS—(U. P.) —Premier Guy Mollet's government demanded unprecedented "special powers" today nationalist terrorism in Algeria.
Mr. Shaw is seeking the GOP nomination for governor against Mr. Hall. The Topeka lawyer commented on the governor's complaint this week that the Kansas Revenue and Taxation Commission will be short needed employees because of a half-million budget cut imposed on the agency by the Legislature.
TOPEKA (U.P.)-Rep. Warren W. Shaw charged today that Gov. Fred Hall is sending state employees in unmarked state cars into Kansas communities "to further" Hall's ambitions to control the delegates to the Republican National Convention."
French Premier Asks For 'Special Powers'
So far-reaching and undetailed was the bill the government submitted to the National Assembly that Mollet probably could declare the entire territory in North Africa under a state of siege. This would give him a legally free hand to assume virtually complete control of all affairs in the troubled North African region which is in the throes of what amounts to civil war, although the Paris regime has carefully avoided use of that term.
