Small GOP Edge In House, Senate
Washington—(U.P.)—Republicans won control of both houses of the 83rd Congress by razor-thin margins that will force President-elect Dwight D. Eisenhower to rely on Democratic help to enact his legislative program.
Nearly complete returns from Tuesday's congressional elections showed the Republicans holding 219 house seats, one more than a bare majority. They were leading in two of the still undecided races for an indicated total of 221. Thus the house will be more closely divided than it has been, immediately after an election, since 1916.
Senate results showed that 23 Republicans and 12 Democrats were elected to the Senate Tuesday. Added to the holdover senators whose seats were not at stake this year, these returns gave the Republican's 48, or exactly half of the Senate seats, and the Democrats 47.
The GOP won control of the House only by their inroads into the normally Democratic south. Three Republican House members were elected from Virginia and one from North Carolina.
The remaining seat is occupied by Sen. Wayne L. Morse of Oregon, who now labels himself an independent Republican and refuses to say how he will vote in organizing the Senate.
Sen.-Elect Price Daniel of Texas a Democrat, said he also may go to the Senate as an independent because of threatened reprisals for his support of Gen. Eisenhower during the presidential campaign. The GOP could use his vote.
Control of the two houses of Congress is important because it determines which party will elect committee majorities and chairmen.
Although the GOP lacks one vote for a Senate majority it is assured of control, at least after Jan. 20, because Vice President-elect Richard M. Nixon then will be able to vote in case of ties. ...
Thus, after the Republicans will be dependent on Democratic help to offset normal losses from their own ranks on key votes. Gen . Eisenhower's legislative lieutenants are expected to try to develop working arrangements with conservative Southern Democrats who have often voted with the GOP in the past in an informal coalition.
However, minority status usually has a unifying effect on a party, even one which has been as badly divided as the Democrats for the past 14 years.

English Poet To Speak Friday
Mr. Auden, whose lecture is titled "The Poet and His Poems," is an adept social satirist whose keen observations have caused critics to applaud his "being 'alive' while he's still living."
Not at all the removed, aloof stereotype of the poet who has no contact with his surroundings, Mr. Auden has perspective which enables him to bring life to the pages of his books.
He keeps continuous rapport with young people, for instance, by lecturing on campuses of such schools as Harvard, Bryn Mawr, Swarthmore, and the University of Virginia.
Mr. Auden was born and raised in England, attending Oxford university. His reputation as one of the most promising poets in the renaissance of English poetry was already established when, in 1939, he came to the United States.
Many of the works of W. H. Auden are being shown in the display case on the second floor of Watson library. The volumes included show not only his work as a poet, but also samples of his talent as an editor, essayist, and playwright.

"This is a machine which gives an indication of the order in which atoms are grouped together within the molecule," Dr. Raymond Q. Brewster, chairman of the chemistry department, explained.

Union Carnival Planned for Nov.21
Gov. Earl Warren of California has been mentioned as a possible choice for attorney general and Gov. Dan Thornton of Colorado might be offered the position of secretary of interior.
Sen. Carlson, a close adviser to the President-elect throughout the campaign, was reported a possible choice as secretary of agriculture. But Rep. Clifford R. Hope of Kansas, Senior Republican on the House Agriculture committee, also was regarded as a good prospect for this post.
Everything from a shave-the-balloon contest to a mock wedding will be featured at the annual Student Union Activities Carnival to be held in the Military Science building.
Dewey, Carlson, Hope Might Get Ike Posts
High in this group were John Foster Dulles as possible secretary of state; John J. McCloy, former high commissioner of Germany, as possible secretary of defense, and Paul Hoffman, former mutual security administrator, as possible secretary of commerce or state.

Business leaders and others who have played important roles in the campaign and Gen. Eisenhower's career also figured in the speculation over the new cabinet.

Republican National Chairman Arthur E. Summersfield, who served as Gen. Eisenhower's campaign manager, was a possible choice to become the new postmaster general, although he has said he wants to return to his Michigan automobile business.
Several other Republican governors also are high on the list of possible cabinet members. Of these Gov. Adams, who was Eisenhower's campaign chief of staff and closest adviser, can just about write his own ticket.
Others with claims on cabinet consideration include defeated Sen. Henry Cabot Lodge Jr., of Massachusetts; John Foster Dulles; Gov. Sherman Adams of New Hampshire; Sen. Fred A. Seaton of Nebraska; and Sen. Frank Carlson of Kansas.
Gov. Adams might choose to become secretary of commerce. But he also might decide to join Gen. Eisenhower's White House staff.
Most of the hooths will be based on games of chance. Ring throwing seems to be the most popular game, with one house adding spice by having contestants throw the hoops over women's legs.
Gov. Dewey, twice defeated as Republican presidential candidate played a major role in Gen. Eisenhower's campaign. He was reported under consideration for appointment as secretary of state or secretary of defense. He might get his choice.
Despite Gov. Dewey's repeated protests that he wants no cabinet post, it was believed here that he could be persuaded to change his mind.
Other booths will feature horse races, a snowball contest, a raffle, a vaudeville, and a Hawaiian show. One house will feature a sideshow and another a mock wedding.

Pachacamac - FOR made a clean sweep of the freshman class officers and All Student Council representatives in the freshman election yesterday.
A few more than 750 ballots were cast, of a possible 1500.
Neither party was surprised at the outcome. Fachacamac spokesmen had consistently predicted victory since the primary last week.
FACTS supporter Kay Conrad, college senior, said, however, that the vote "was much better" than had been anticipated.
The women's ASC representative contest had been watched with considerable interest. FACTS pinned most of their hopes for victory on this race.
Most of the ballots cast were straight tickets, with little crossing of party lines.
Edith Sorter, president of FOR, said last night that the party would meet some time next week to discuss and take action on ways of accomplishing the things which were promised in the FOR platform.
The platform includes: more social activities for the freshman class as a whole; more joint activities and better relations between Corbin and North College and Foster and Hodder halls, and a class-sponsored service project.
The winners, with the unofficial tabulations, are listed below.
Women's ASC representative, Margaret Campbell, 178, over Jane Snyder, 136; Men's ASC, Larry Heil, 258, over Dirk Hazlett, 178.
Freshman president, Fred Heath,
431, over Ron Denchfield, 222; vice president, Betty Lou Watson, 394,

Lydia Ibarrondo, mezzo-soprano from northern Spain, will sing the title role in the Charles L. Wagner production of Bizet's "Carmen" when it appears in Hoch auditorium Wednesday.
Spanish Mezzo-Soprano Takes Title Role in 'Carmen'
The opera will represent the opening of the University Concert Course.
Miss Ibarrondo has acquired an excellent reputation for her part of the fiery gypsy in the opera. She sang the role last July with the Cincinnati Summer Opera association. Her first appearance as Carmen was in New York, with the New York City Center.
Miss Ibarrondo was born in Bilbao, in the Basque country, and studied music in her home town. She finished her education at the Paris conservatory.
Her principal vocal teacher was Alberti de Gozostiga, who also taught Lily Pons. In 1944 Miss Ibarrondo made her debut at the Teatro Liceo, in Barcelona, as Ortrud in Wagner's "Lohengrin."
She also appeared there as Carrren, Amneris, Dailah, and Ulrica. After her first successes she was engaged for appearances in Paris, Bordeaux, Lille, Orleans, and other French cities.
She also appeared in London in 1948. She came to this country by way of Havana and South America, joining the New York City Center, where she has appeared as Amneris, Santuzza, and Suzuki, in addition to Carmen.
She has also appeared in concerts and over the radio siaging folksongs from Andalusia, Castilla, Aragonia, and other parts of Spain. She has also made recordings for Columbia and MGM.
