Freshmen threaten to picket
dance to save class function
Desperate freshmen yesterday
declared they would picket Satur
day's Assembly dance, scheduled
for the same time as the Freshie
Glee, and Assembly dance heads
condemned the freshmen for ex
ploiting the students.
"It is unfair that a money mak
ing ASUC proposition, should be
allowed to run in competition with
a class function," Edward Willi
'42, freshman class president,
cried.
Charges Answered.
"It is not an ASUC activity, it is
not money making, we had our
date before the Glee was thought
of, and many students cannot af
ford $1.50 for a dance," William
Douglass '39, Assembly dance
chairman, replied.
Willi called upon all "able
bodied" freshmen to join his com
mittee chairmen in picketing the
dance. He said the Glee would be
held despite any opposition.
Orchestras Signed.
Paul Martin will play for the
Freshie Glee at the Berkeley
Women's City club, and Carl Ra
vazza will provide music for the
Assembly dance to be held at
Hearst gymnasium. Both will fol

week end include an honor stu
dents' reception for President
Robert Gordon Sproul and mem
bers of the faculty at 4 p. m. to

sity Chorus at 3 p. m. Sunday in

Stressing the need for lifting
foreign embargoes on loyalist
Spain if its repulsion of Franco's
rebels Is successful, Antonio Ruiz
Vilaplana declared in a speech
last night before students and
townspeople that "if fascism wins
in Spain, it will come to South
America."
In addition to the aid which the
United States could render to the
loyalists by raising its embargo,
the speaker felt that "possibly by
preserving democracy in North
America, Spain can be saved." He
stated emphatically that the loyal
ists want to carry on and can:
Author of Burgos Justice, Vila
plana was formerly a Franco aide,
but now is an ardent supporter of
the loyalist cause. He disproved
Franco'a cause for a declaration
of war against communism, be
cause at the outset of the war
Spain had no relationship at all
with Russia and only 16 of 500
members of the national legisla
ture were communists, he said.
Striking at another loyalist en
emy, he noted, "One of the most
powerful yet harmful forces has
been the church led by a strong
clergy which has done nothing for
peace and has allowed Franco
propaganda to carry on."
