Warren Wins Pulitzer Prize For His Novel
Robert Penn Warren, novelist who recently lectured at Kansas university on the works of Robert Frost, has been awarded the Pulitzer prize for his novel "All The King's Men"
Mr. Warren's novel is the story of a southern political leader's rise to power. Ray West, associate professor of English, who has reviewed the novel in a literary journal, compared it with "Babbitt" and "The Great American Tragedy" as a work that will endure.
"The Autobiography of William Allen White" received the biography prize which will go to the widow of the late Emporia editor.
He said that the novel had been misinterpreted by many reviewers because of Mr. Warren's departure from the realistic style adopted by some modern authors.
Other prize winners are Eddy Gilmore, reporting of international affairs; Vaughn Shoemaker, who also received the award in 1938; cartoon; Arnold Hardy, Georgie Tech hotel, pictures of the Winecoff hotel in Atlanta; Balthasar Kalinovich, correspondent, articles on Russia; Edward T. Follard, o' the Washington Post, articles on Columbians, Inc.
William H. Gimnes, Wall Street Journal, editorial writing; Frederick Wolman, New York World-Telegram, articles on the infiltration of communism into the United States; James P. Baxter III, article "Scientists Against Time"; Robert Lowell for his poem "Lord Weary's Castle"; and Charles Ives, winner of the prize for his "Symphony No. 1"
Harold T. Herriott, College junior,
must pay the $140 fine assessed
against him by the student court for
S traffic violations. Herriott's appeal
was denied yesterday by the
court.
Herriott Must Pay $140 Fine
Herrlott's attorney, Roland Gidrey, based the appeal on the fact that Herrlott, as editor of an official compus publication, the "Bitter Bird," received the tickets while doing necessary business for the publication.
Gidney also tried to establish that a car was absolutely necessary in the publication of the magazine.
Don McCaul, circulation manager for the "Bitter Bird." Ruth Clayton, advertising manager, and William E. Burgess, business manager, were witnesses for the defense.
The prosecution objected to the testimony as being irrelevant and in material.

Britain Refuses To Pay Debts
London.—(UP)—A high government source said today that Britain will refuse in forthcoming negotiations with creditor nations to recognize all her wartime borrowing as legitimate debt and will be "very tough" about getting the balance sailed down.

people with sterling balances that
we are prepared to be very tough."
