Hungary Protests
Thousands of university students, workers and off-duty soldiers in
Budapest, Hungary, raised shouts of "Out with Russian troops and

The demonstration was advertised first as a gesture of "sympathy
and solidarity" with the Poles, who threw Stalinist elements out of the
Communist party leadership. Secondly it turned into a public mass
"demand for similar Hungarian "declaration of Independence" from
Moscow control.

Team Captains Head Into Lincoln
Approximately 3000 students
were solicited by 200 AUF workers
last night during the first day of
the 1956 AUF fall drive.
The drive got under . way last
night with the mass solicitation
of independent students living
throughout Lincoln.
Teams of solicitors from the or
ganized houses met at Love Li
brary Auditorium at 7 p.m. for a
last-minute orientation session be
fore beginning the soliciting.
At the meeting Peyton Short,
regional World University Service
secretary, and Rex Knowles, AUF
advisor, spoke to the workers about
the purposes of the charity drive.
Knowles told the solicitors that
money is not given to AUF but that
through AUF one is able to give to
five needy charities.
"Money should be given be
cause of the need to help others
less fortunate rather than be given
only because 'one has to give," he
said.
Short emphasized that fact that
AUF is the leader in the Univer
sity charity giving and he urged
the workers to remember that peo
ple all over the world are "listening
in" on what is being done during
the AUF drive.
From Love Library the solicit
ing teams went out into Lincoln
to contact and solicit independent
students.
The teams reported back to their
teams captains at the Union before
10 p.m. with the money they had
AUF Banquet
Begins Annual
Solicitations
The All-University Fund kicked
off its fall solicitation drive last
night with its annual kick-off
Dinner. This dinner annually in
itiates AUF's fall drive and serves
as a spark to get the drive going.
Attending this banquet were
AUF members and advisors,
team captains and Peyton Short,
WUS secretary.
Immediately after eating Mr.
Short 'declared war."
"I am declaring a war on
hunger, disease and need on one
hand, and ignorance, complacency
and prejudice on the other," Mr.
Short stated.
Short cited examples from his
recent trip to Asia to show the
hunger, disease and need exhibited
there. He told of children thump
ing their bloated stomachs and of
the rampage of disease with few
on none medical facilities.
He also told of students in these
foreign countries who don't know
from night to night . where they
will sleep or where their next
meal will come from.
"Here," he stated, "we must
declare war on ignorance. We
must find out what is behind the
community chest ... and where
our money and help is needed."
He went on to state that we must
also fight . a complacency which
leads us to say to heck with every
one else as long as we are com
fortable and prejudice which
makes us refuse to sacrifice or
to help others.
"But the first thing which we
must do is to practice what we
preach. We must be willing to
sacrifice ourselves first," Short
told the audience.
- "Tliis is a war in our hearts,
of love, not hate. The only . way
we can force out evil is by good
deeds, npt by more hate," he said
in conclusion.
Mr. Short had high praise for
AUF and its work and also for
the work done by the Rev. Mr.
