Politicos Bitten By Presidential Bug This week, some three years before the next national political convention, political medicine men and some of the weekly magazines started to speculate on which of the current politicians would vie for the 1953 presiden tial nominations. Time Magazine listed the following men as those afflicted with the presidential bug: Tennessee's Estes Kefauver, 49, who ran stronger than any other Democrat in the presidential pri maries, last year, never has stopped running, who, according tff Time, drained th last ounce of publicity out of committee on military affairs last vear. is showing a rare talent to.- keeping Northern Fair Defers and Southern Democrats wording harmoniously as the Democratic Senate minority leader.

He has so much as said, "If the administration tan't win this battle with international Commu nism, I can. Just look at what I can do if I want to."

Purdue Eponenr Engineers Not Recommended For Marriage Special Financing Offered To encourage productive schol arly research by University of, Rochester faculty members, par ticularly in the humanities and so cial sciences, the University re cently announced a new plan of support through a series of sum mer fellowships. For the coming summer, ap proximately five fellowships will be granted, each with a cash award of $400 to J$600. All full time members of the faculty of the College of Arts and Sciences below the rank of full professor rfre eligible. Most or all of the fellowships are expected to be awarded in the fields of humani ties and social sciences. ' The purpose of the fellowships, according to Professor Carl K. Hersey, chairman of the Univer sity of Rochester Committee on Grants in Aid, is to enable faculty members to engage in research by at least partially relieving the re- l.iiont nf thA finnnMnl tppA fnr additional employment, such as summer school leaching. As in the case of the grants-in-aid program conducted for some time by the University, the awards may be used to meet travel expenses and other costs. The unique feature of the fel lowships, however, is that the awards may be used for meeting the recipients' ordinary expenses of life while remaining in Roches ter. The awards will take the place of additional salary that might be earned by summer school teach ing or other employment. Decisions on the fellowship awards will be based on the im portance of the research project, the applicant's need for financial assistance, and his expected con tribution to the world of scholar ship and especially to the intel lectual life of the University of Rochester.
