Model Road To Be Shown At Exposition
One of the many exhibits to be shown at the Engineering Exposition to be held Friday, April 21 through Sunday, April 23, will be a model highway built by the students of civil engineering department.
This highway will be a scale model which will be shown in several stages of construction. The display will consist of four sections. Scale model equipment and vehicles will be used throughout the project to offer a touch of realism.
The second section will be a view of the same terrain but will show the initial steps and the cut being made through the hill. Typical earthworking equipment that would be seen on an actual construction project will be shown in place.
The third section will show further construction with a section of the concrete slab being poured by model equipment. The final section will show the finished highway complete with traffic.
The initial section will show the rough terrain, a hill adjoining a food plain, with the necessary stakes for the beginning of construction.
In conjunction with this project will be a display of the latest prefabricated military bridges. These bridges will be exact scale models of the bridges now being used by the U.S. army.
The civil engineers will show surveying instruments, measuring apparatus, and bridge models in 208 Marxin hall.
In room 11 Marvin hall the soil exhibit will consist of models showing soil settlement under buildings, the model of an earthdam with electric flow net analyzer, and the model of equipment used to obtain borings and full size undisturbed samples of soil in tubings.

US Policy Too Negative Lackie Tells Young GOP
Dean Acheson, secretary of state, is a "bungler." Paul Lackie, '40 McPherson attorney, told Young Republican club members Tuesday night.
Referring to more local matters,
Mr. Lackie said that it was the duty of
the Young Republicans and similar
groups to get out the more than
46 million votes wasted in every
election by non-voters less than
40-years-old.
The present administration formulates a policy and then "hopes everything turns out all right", rather than adopting a positive policy toward world developments, he charged.
He cited a need for greater cooperation among older and younger political groups in order that the wishes of both may be better served. It calls for "a nickels worth of diplomacy," Mr. Lackie said as he advocated that more young peo-
Mr. Lackie declared that President Truman's "welfare state" is a "narcotic of security," and that it will result in the loss of the people's freedom. When the government "tries to do it all" it makes the people too dependent; it will destroy their incentive, he remarked.
He attributed this negative stand to the tendency of the administration to listen to the ideas of Owen Lattimore and "fellow travelers." M. Lattimore is the government envoy charged by U.S. Senator Joseph McCarthy as being a top Communist svy.
pr stools for once.
We should select candidates who have a common appeal to the mass of voters, Mr. Lackie concluded.
ple should run for office.

One reason for the success of the performance was that it appealed to those who aren't interested in the technicalities of the Bach sonatas so often performed, but who appreciate the fine melodic compositions of Brahms and Schubert.
709 Mass.
The trio consisting of Erich Kahn, piano; Giorgio Ciompi, violin; and Benar Heifetz, cello; gave the audience a performance with flawless timing and of rare excellence.
The program included the "Trio in E Flat Mayor" by Haydn, "Trio in C Major" by Brahms, and "Trio in E Flat Major" by Schubert.
The program opened with Haydn's trio, written in three movements. The moderately fast beginning continued through the slower, carefully shaded second movement and ended with the third movement marked "Presto Assai."
Open Sundays
The second number was Brahm's trio. Melodic and powerful, with its theme recurring again and again in the different instruments, it gained momentum through four movements of almost faultless playing and ended with a merry finale.
Schubert's trio finished the concert on a stately plane. The skillful blending of the piano, violin and cello brought out all the innuendos of melody, especially in the "Andante Con Moto." second movement.
