Speaker Doesn't Mind Name Calling
Being called a name by a Russian isn't always the most pleasant thing, but Melchior Aquino, a member of the Philippine delegation to the United Nations Far Eastern commission until recently, and a speaker in the University's bureau of lectures and concerts, is quite proud of his. He visited the University Monday.
Tabbed the vest pocket edition of the "Voice of America" by Dr. Ivan P Pavlov, formerly Russia's delegate to the UN and now Soviet ambassador to Paris, Mr. Aquino will tour 38 cities in Kansas, western Missouri and northern Oklahoma in the next six weeks.
He will be speaking on "Crisis in the Far East," before the "Talk of the Month" clubs which have been established by the bureau.
The speaker fell heir to his nickname during the course of a debate on freedom of information. Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt once defended the

visitor pointing out that the vest pocket books are one of the best means for getting messages across.
The lecturer received his newspaper training from Carlos P. Romulo, former president of the United Nations. He first started to work for newspapers when he finished high school.
He attended the University of Manila where he received his bachelor of arts and bachelor of laws degrees with honors. Working for an English news magazine when World War I broke out, Mr. Aquino was active in the resistance movement.
Following World War I he became
Strangers Can Be Identified Just Observe Them Carefully
Even if you have never met that person walking toward you on the campus, chances are you still will have no trouble deciding to which school of the University he or she belongs.

Certain characteristics of a soun are very evident. For example, almost anyone can spot an engineer. He is the student who is always overladen with textbooks on shears and popped up in one’s spection will reveal the characteristic slide rule, the engineer's right arm.

KU Film Series Brings Guinness
"Last Holiday," a British comedy by Ji B. Priestly, which stars Alec Guinness, will be the first offering in the 1952-53 film series. It will be shown at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Oct. 10 in Hoch auditorium.
The schedule for the film series was released today by Raymond Nichols, executive secretary to the chancellor. Mr. Nichols explained that the films were selected in an attempt to fit such a program into the general cultural pattern of the University.
The rest of the schedule for the year is as follows: "Carnival in Flanders," Oct. 24; "Daniel and the Devil," Nov. 14; "Bicycle Thief," Nov. 21; "Brief Encounter," Dec. 5; "Film Without a Name," Jan. 9; "Dios le lo Pague," Feb. 13; "Tony Draws a Horse," Feb. 17; "Torment," March 6, and "The Queen of Spades," March 20.
The films will be shown promptly at 7:30 p.m. Mr. Nichols said. Group singing and organ music will begin at 7:15. Don Parker, engineering senior will serve his third year as organist.
ID cards will admit students. Admission will be limited to students members of the faculty, and their immediate families.
arts students. If they can't be picked out by tackle boxes, portfolios of music, or dabs of powdered chalk and paint on their elbows, they can be spotted usually by their wilder-than-normal clothing. Then, too, their exotic hair styles can sometimes give a clue to their identity.
The lawyers appear to be a conservative lot. Rather drab suits and cavatts topped by a pair of horn rim plates. It is a picture of the usual law student.
A pencil stuck in the coifure or behind the car provides easy identification of, the journalists. If neither of these signs is evident, the journalist can be spotted by printers' ink smeared on the forearm or hands.
No characteristics of dress distinguish the pre-meds or chemistry majors, but they can usually be identified by bags under the eyes. If this fails, use your nose, for work in the labs seem to give a certain "air" to these majors.
If you are curious about the school identity of a student who seems to be haplessly wandering about, you would be pretty safe to guess that he is a business major. The businessmen can be compared to men without a country. They attend classes in several buildings.
Pharmacy students, education students, and those in the college, are harder to distinguish. They can be noticed, however. Pharmacy students pride themselves on the odd short-hand style they are taught to use and often display their learning on tables at local cafes. College students can be spotted by their habit of congregating in groups, for a collective damning of Western Civilization.
With these hints it becomes easy to identify students. However, a word of caution is necessary. Watch out for faculty members. They have a funny habit of looking like students sometimes.

Adlai Picked to Win By Political Writers
Washington—(U.P.)—A poll of 50 top political writers showed today that a majority expect Gov. Adlai Stevenson to be elected president.
Newsweek magazine took the poll of the newsmen, most of them Washington correspondents. The magazine said all but two of the reporters submitted their replies before it was revealed that Sen. Richard Nixon, Republican vice-presidential nominee, had received an $18,235 expense fund from wealthy California supporters.

The poll showed that 28 of the writers "g u e s s e d" Stevenson would win the election and 22 believed the voters would favor Republican nomine Dwight Eisenhower.
