MacArthur May Accept GOP Presidential Bid
Milwaukee—(UP)—Gen. Douglas MacArthur will throw his gold-braided cap into the Republican Presidential ring before Christmas, Lansing Hoyt, his leading supporter, predicted today.
Hoyt, chairman of Wisconsin's MacArthur for President club, knew MacArthur as a Milwaukee high school student, and has been in close communication with him in recent weeks.
He declined to say whether his statement was based on communications with MacArthur, but he said that the General probably would announce his candidacy "within the next 60 days."
weeks.
"I am able to set down with the certainty of personal knowledge that General MacArthur will accept the Republican nomination if it is offered to him." Hoyt said.
The announcement, he indicated, would follow a national conference of MacArthur supporters to be held here Nov. 15.
Youth Speaks Before FUI
"World government is the only answer to the sorry condition in which the world is today. Federal Union Incorporated is the logical first step toward it," said Alastair Kyle, 16 year old freshman from St. Johns university at the F.U.I.meeting Monday night.
"The people of America and the world must realize that another war must be averted before we are all destroyed," said the youth, while leading the informal discussion.
The youth from Annapolis has been associated with the organization since its formation. He possesses poise far beyond his years. At no time did the discussion move beyond the control of the slim freshman. He was not definite about the time required to accomplish the mission of the club, however.
"The American people will require much education along this line. The idea of world citizenship is entirely new to the majority of them. They regard it as something strange and foreign. It is left to us to accustom them to it."
At the request of Ralph Moberly, president of the local chapter, the speaker outlined the aims of the organization.
"It is the opinion of my organization that world government will come slowly. It is our aim to unite all persons possessing civil liberties into a powerful unit. We believe that after Russia and other like states, realize our power, they will be willing to join us."

Chiapusso Gives Top Flight Piano Recital
Music lovers who didn't hear Jan Chiapusso, professor of piano, present a piano recital Monday really missed a good bet. The performance would have done credit to the most top-flight concert artist.
Although the audience was small, for Hoch auditorium, the music the audience heard was tremendous in both quality and quantity.
Professor Chiapusso, whose many years of concert work have given him a poise younger artists may well envy, makes a very impressive figure at the piano. From the opening strains of Cesar Franck's Prelude, Aria, and Finale, he held the audience under a musical spell.
The second group of numbers including Liszt's "Etude in F Minor," two lively Chopin mazurkas, and Chopin's "Ballade, Opus 38," were played with such appreciation and depth of feeling on the part of the artist that the mere mechanics of his playing went entirely unnoticed.
The final work, and 45 minutes of continuous playing is definitely work, was Beethoven's "Fur Das Hammerklavier" sonata. This largest and most important of Beethoven's piano numbers was being played for the first time before a Lawrence audience. It taxes every power at the pianits's command. It would also have taxed the audience's powers of concentration but for Professor Chiapuso's sensitive and stirring interpretation.
Modern Choir To Hold Tryouts
Additional tryouts and a rehearsal of the Modern choir will be held tonight in 131 Frank Strong hall. Under the direction of Ross Robertson, economics instructor, the group will sing in the all school musical revue as well as for other school functions.
Plans include the forming of several smaller vocal combinations within the choir, and a complete repertoire of modern music similar to that of the Fred Waring vocalists.
All persons interested in joining the choir are requested to attend the rehearsal tonight. A complete list of those selected will be announced later.

Ex-Ambassador Commits Suicide
Concord, N. H. —(UP)—John Gilbert Winnant, 58, wartime ambassador to Great Britain and former governor of New Hampshire, fatally shot himself in the right temple Monday night after first attempting suicide with an unloaded gun, officials said today.
Winant, scion of an aristocratic New England family, killed himself in the bedroom of his palatial, old colonial home. A coroner's report attributed his act to "despondency occasioned by extreme fatigue and nervous tension."
Left No Explanation
Authorities said he apparently left no notes.
County solicitor Raymond K. Perkins said that Winant first tried to shoot himself with a German Luger pistol but hurled it to the floor of his bedroom when it failed to discharge and he discovered it was unloaded.
Friends and servants believed his condition, which all had noticed in recent weeks, was due largely to the strain of preparing his memoirs as wartime ambassador to Great Britain.
The Luger was found between twin beds in the room. Marks on the floor and the condition of the weapon indicated it was thrown down "with some force", probably only minutes before Winant shot himself with a 7.65 Belgian automatic.
Ironically, at the moment he died alone in his bedroom, an advance copy of his first volume was en route to him by mail.
