pe M. On Dial To Auto Dealers Encourage Vote Transportation To Planned DETROIT, (Special) --Free transportation to the polls will be offered voters in this year's presidential election by new car dealers in nearly every community in America, in a non partisan effort to turn out a record-breaking vote, it was announced here today by J. Sarton Lloyd, President of the National Automobile Dealers Association. The announcement was made following a mid-year meeting of the association's Board of Directors in Detroit. The Directors voted to make this nation-wide "transportation to the polls for those who need it" campaign the national association's major public service activity for the Fall of 1952.

Underlining the project's non partisan nature will be the slogan: "Vote as you please but vote!" New car dealers, Mr. Lloyd pointed out, are "merchants of mobility" and so are in the unique position of being able to offer transportation to voters who need it. Dealers are being urged to use all available staff and company cars for bringing to the polls voters who would not otherwise be able to get there. Folders to encourage voting will also be distributed widely by dealers, the NADA official said. The folders will emphasize the citizen's duty to vote, the decisive importance of a single vote, and the alarming decline of the total popular vote.

The folders will also contain tally sheets for voters who wish to follow and record the returns on election night. "We have undertaken this program because we feel strongly about the duty and the privilege of the ballot," said President Lloyd. "The franchised new car dealers cf America are local businessmen who are close to the people of their communities, and as citizens they are concerned that so many Americans neglect their privilege and responsibility to vote."

Right now, Fmletter said, the United States is much better off to bombers than Russia, but Russia has more fighters and her MIO-15 has some advantages over the U.S. F-M Sabre Jet fighter. "The Air Force is not going to be able to do the Job that is expected of it," If planned economies are enforced, Fmletter said.

With the additional money, he aaid, the Air Force can have 143 wings in the air by July 1, 1954. Without it, he declared, the program cannot be fulfilled before 1957. Finletter spoke in an interview transcribed for broadcast Sunday night by the Gannett Mews Service. THREE FIREMEN KILLED ST.

PUt IMMVCItON CM1 EXTlRMINATING CO. Dial Not Always This Way St. John's Experiments in Admitting Women Students ANNAPOLIS, Md. In the easy air of today's commencement, you'd think womanhood was an established institution around St. John's colonial campus.

But it wasn't always so. From its founding 255 years ago this Great Books college had been strictly masculine until last September the first of 24 voices echoed down its halls. Despite the fears and mutterings among many beards, both gray and light peach, the college has changed little. "Admitting women as is still in the nature of an experiment," explains President Richard D. Weigle, a Yale man, "but it's been so successful this far that there is a frequent tendency to treat them as permanent." The women have not asked for-nor received --special treatment of any sort.

Sarah Covington, Cen- trevUle, has for example, a wicked arm and nice drop pitch, so she's the hurier on the class Softball team. The girls generally agree that with their studies, there isn't much time for romance. Three of them were married before they enrolled, and one is a widow in her 40s. All are stepping from freshman to sophomore class, for St. John's accepts only beginning women students.

Academically, the college won't be pinned down on how the women stack up. "It's hard to tell says Dean Jascha Klein. "This may be a better than average group. In any case, some are bright, some are dumb, just like all human beings." The gals themselves wouldn't have it any other way. "At least a third of us had worked or gone to another college first," says Janet Jenkins, a former Swarthmore girl.

"We certainly prefer this approach. Formerly the classroom emphasis was all on memory and competition. You took in, parrot fashion, what the professor said. You fed it back to him in the "I simply think co operation works out better. When other people share ideas with you, you get more ideas of your own." The St.

John's curriculum Is based on the study of what it considers the great books of all time. They deal mainly with language, mathematics and science, with a dash of the arts. Discussion plays a major part in the system. The college graduates 19 today. Southern to Build New Science Hall LAKELAND, Fla.
