GOP Takes Early Lead in Nebraska Vote
Omaha, Neb.,—(U.P.)—Republicans, with a scattering of incomplete precinct reported, took an early lead in the three Senate races and the governor's contest in Nebraska tonight. The total vote was expected to top 500,000—heavy for an off year
Partial returns from four of Nebraska's 2,110 precincts showed, in the six-year Senate race, Republican Carl Curtis leading with 282 votes to 123 for Democrat Keith Neville.
Incomplete returns from three precincts gave Republican Hazel Abel 24 votes to 104 for Democrat Hilary Martin the two months short senate term.
In the four-year Senate contest, Roman Hruska, Republican, led Democrat James Green 292 to 105 with four incomplete precincts reporting.
In the governor's race, Victor Anderson, Republican, had 281 votes with four partial precincts reporting, and four partial precincts 130 for Democrat William Ritchie.
Nebraska elects three senators because of a legal quirk allowing an appointed senator, not in today's election, to serve only until a successor is declared qualified. The successor serves until January.

Martin Wins Senate Seat In Iowa Republican Upset
The Iowa Senate candidate who said. "A vote for me is a vote for Ike!" beat incumbent Democratic nominee Guy M. Gillette by a handy margin in yesterday's election.
Republican Thomas E. Martin, an eight-term representative, was assured of his first Senate seat by 2 p.m. (CST) today when, with three fourths of the vote counted, he compiled a 25.000-vote lead.
The victory was a major GOP upset, with most state political observers expecting Sen. Gillette to return to the Senate floor.
Sen. Gillette had campaigned against Administration farm, power and conservation policies in the recession-hit agricultural state. Mr. Martin had received all-out support from President Eisenhower and the Republican party.
The state supported the GOP despite recent distress in poultry and dairying areas. The distress situation was thought to be a strong vote getter for the 75-year-old incumbent, Sen. Gillette.
Reno Paper Says Bible Is Victor
Reno, Nev—(U.P.)—The Nevada State Journal, Nevada's leading Democratic newspaper, tonight claimed victory for Democrat Alan Bible over Republican Sen. Ernest S. Brown in Nevada's United States Senate race.
The two men are seeking the final two years of the unexpired term of the late Sen. Pat McCarran, veteran Nevada Democrat who died of a heart attack last September.
Publisher Joe F. McDonald said that with more than 30 per cent of the votes tabulated, it was his belief that Mr. Bible's lead indicated the 46-year-old Reno attorney would defeat Brown by at least 5,000 votes.

Shivers and Johnson Win in Texas Races
Dallas, Tex., (U.P.)—Both Democratic Gov. Reagan Shivers and Senate Democratic leader Lyndon Johnson were reelected.
Returns from 28 of the state's 254 counties showed Gov. Shivers with 93.4 per cent of the vote counted and Sen. Johnson with 90.54 per cent. Shivers' Republican opponent was Tod R. Adams, a lawyer.
Robert Johnson, a veteran political observer and manager of the Texas Election bureau, which tabulates the vote in the nation's largest state, said the returns were representative and there was no doubt that Gov. Shivers and Sen. Johnson had won.
He ran far behind in his home county. Johnson was opposed by Carlos Watson, a veteran Republican, and Fred T. Spangler, a Constitutional party member.

IN AT 9 - OUT AT 5
Poetry of World Wars Discussed by Moore
Sen J. Allen Frear was returned to his second term as Democrat from Delaware yesterday by defeating Republican Herbert Warburton, $2,000 to $1,0,000.
A member of the right wing of the Democratic party, Sen. Frear won on the promise that a vote for him probably would swing control of the Senate to the Democrats.
Sen. Frear's election again will give the state a divided representation in the Senate. The other Delaware senator is John J. Williams, Republican.
Poetry of the two world wars was the subject of last night's lecture by Geoffrey Moore, visiting Rose Morgan professor.
Sen. Frear Wins Delaware Race
The two candidates held similar views on most of the Eisenhower program, and both candidates ignored the school segregation issue in a relatively quiet election campaign.
Johnson May Assume Senate Leadership
Austin, Tex., —U.P.)—Texas Sen. Lydon B. Johnson refused to comment last night on the possibility of his becoming Senate majority leader until results from across the country were more conclusive.
However, Sen. Johnson, who was re-elected over Republican Carlos Watson, sent congratulatory telegrams to incumbent Democratic senators of three other states when it became apparent they had been returned to office.
The messages went out to senators Robert S. Kerr of Oklahoma, Allen Frear of Deleware, and Theodore Green of Rhode Island.
Johnson spent most of the day at Johnson City, where he voted. He drove to Austin late in the day, ate leisurely dinner and then went to its office where he remained about 15 minutes listening to election returns from around the country.
Mr. Moore cited Rupert Brook as typical of the soldier poets of the early years of World War I and said that Brook's poetry was characterized by a lyric patriotism quite different from the realism of the poets of World War II.
Poets of the pre World War I period were just急 emerging from the rigidity of the Victorian era and were faced with the problem of rejecting Victorianism. Poetry of that time was pastoral and "sang sweetly" said Mr. Moore, and it was natural for the early war poets to picture war in the same idealized manner.
Wilfred Owen was probably the best poet of World War I, said Mr. Moore, but his poetry, unlike that of Brook, reflected a bitter cynicism that was almost vicious in its truth.
Poets of the World War II era accepted war and spoke with quiet familiarity of the commonplace events of a soldier's existence. Smugness was lacking, said Mr. Moore, and these poets were embarrassed by patriotism and a little ashamed of nationalism.

Goal of the campaign is to secure the signature of every student in order to assure the team 100 percent support. Members of the club will have scrolls at the information booth, the rotunda of Strong, and outside the Hawk's Nest in the Union.
