Nixon repays Indiana with large win :$ x-
By EUGENE J. CADOU INDIANAPOLIS (UPI ) — Richard M. Nixon, Republican presidential winner, Tuesday repaid Indiana for past support by carrying the state hugely
and affording coattails to GOP local nominees that produced a substantial GOP sweep in the state. Nixon garnered 50 per cent of the Hoosier vote, with Hubert
Leading art exhibits on display at DePauw
The leading “op” and “pop” artists of Paris, London and the U.S. have samples of their works in DePauw University’s Contemporary Printmakers show. Fifty-one prints are currently on exhibit in the University’s Art Center, gathered for the most part by the Jane Haslem Gallery of Madison, Wis. Miss Haslem is an alumna of DePauw. Op art, according to DePauw’s own printmaker Professor Ray French, is basically a visual (optical) piece- -like Victor Vasarely’s “J Code Suite,” a rather dizzying serigraph purchased for the University's art collection. Vasarely is generally considered the leading op artist in Europe. He works in Paris. Pop art takes the commonplace,
elegant and unexpected and often juxtaposes them, producing ludicrous effects like Edwardo Paolozzi’s colliding Mickey Mouse and Michelangelo! Paolozzi does his print-making in London and so does another one of the show’s contributors, Peter Hedegaard. Many of the exhibit’s other printers do their thing on college campuses. Mel Butor is a professor of fine arts at the University of Wisconsin, and Jerry Erdman is a graduate student in fine arts at the same school. Judy Kelly is the lone Canadian in the show. She teaches fine arts at St. George University in Montreal. Warrington Colescott has several intaglio prints in the show , many of them whimsical Continued on Page 6
FRENCH PROGRAM--This French literary cabaret troupe, “Paris Rive Gauche,” will present DePauw University’s convocation program Friday at 11 a.m. in Meharry Hall. The one-hour performance is free and open to the public at large. The performers from the renowned literary cabarets of Paris' Left (non-political reference) Bank will be Beatrice Arnac, Bernard Haller, Jacques Marchais, Michel Villard (pianist not pictured) and Paul Villaz. The program will include French songs, satire and poetry set to music, traditional French folk songs, and the “very latest sounds” with lyrics from Baudelaire through Jean Genet. Two of the performers —Arnac and Haller—made their American television debuts on the insomniac circuit—the Tonight show.
H. Humphrey winning only 38 per cent and George C. Wallace scoring a surprisingly low 10 per cent. The upshot was that Republican Secretary of State Edgar D. Whitcomb, World War Two hero, won the governor’s chair over Lt. Gov. Robert L. Rock, Democrat, 53 per cent to 47 percent, and all other Republican state candidates prevailed. Also the GOP congressional lineup of six Republicans and five Democrats was changed to seven Republicans and four Democrats. In addition, the Republicans captured both houses of the General Assembly by generous Postmaster positions sought Postmaster, C.E. Coffman announces that examinations will be given for Distribution Clerks and Letter Carriers in the Postal Service. The positions are for employment in Post Offices in Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana. For information and application contact the Bainbridge Post Office.
margins and hundreds of local nominees of the GOP were winners. Bayh Only Exception The exception, and a notable one, was the reelection of Democratic Sen. Birch E. Bayh, Jr., over State Rep. William D. Ruckelshaus, Republican, 52 to 48 per cent. Bayh’s tremendous personal charm and interesting legislative record in Congress helped in his victory. The voters knew Bayh and many scratched for him. They had done so six years ago when the 40.year-old Bayh has scored a startling triumph over veteran GOP Sen. Homer E. Capehart by the skin of his teeth.— a margin of only 10,944 in 1962. Indiana’s senior senator, Vance Hartke, Democrat, does not have to run until 1970. The Democratic congressman who lost his seat was Rep. Edward Roush, Huntington, who had been reapportioned into the 4th from the 5th District and who was downed by veteran GOP congressman E. Ross Adair, Fort Wayne. The Hoosiers likewise voted against legalizing pari - mutuel race horse gambling in a refer-
endum. However, the decision was only advisory and the 1969 Legislature has the power to take the opposing stand. This may be unlikely because of the opposition of many church, business and civic groups. Bet In Other States All states surrounding Indiana have legal pari-mutuel betting. They are Illinois, Michigan, Ohio and Kentucky. Continued on Page 3 Serving on USS Cochrane (X05 95) PEAR HARBOR, HAWAII (FHTNC) Oct. 30 — Storekeeper Second Class James M.

Named fund chairman
Dr. Anne Nichols, 707 E. Seminary, Greencastle, has been appointed local chairman for the 1968 campaign of the Indiana University School of Medicine Fund. She is one of 7 graduates of the I.U. School of Medicine living in Greencastle. The program of raising funds from alumni and friends to help meet the needs of the school is now in its fifth year. It is conducted annually by the School of Medicine Alumni Association, in cooperation with the staff and faculty and with the Indiana University Foundation.
In last year’s campaign, gifts were received from more than 1,500 donors in 440 cities throughout the nation. Dr. Earl W. Mericle of Indianapolis, national chairman of the 1968 program, said that local chairmen are now organizing for personal solicitation in 220 cities throughout the nation. “Contributions to the Fund will be used for students scholarships and loans, for facilities, for research, and other urgent needs, in accordance with the wishes of the donors,” she said.

A real prestidigitator | (magician) at fiesta
‘It’s fantastic!’ ‘How does he do it!’ ‘There has to be some trick, yet....’ These are the comments you will be hearing at the Northeast School Saturday night when the PTA features A MAGIC SHOW by Bruce Hetzler, professional magician, during the FIESTA DE LA OLIMPIADA. Bruce, a junior at DePauw, is from St. Louis and has been doing magic since ninth grade. He was admitted to the Society of American Magicians at age sixteen. His performances in the St. Louis area have taken him to Scout and church groups, as well as to numerous private parties at hotels and on the riverboat, Huck Finn. He has appeared on TV, at shopping centers,
county fairs, hospitals—once in a psychiatric ward—as well as in the Kiel Civic Auditorium in downtown St. Louis. When asked what is his most spectacular act, Bruce replies that the ‘Hand - Chopper’ gets the most gasps from the audience. ‘Another favorite is when I produce live doves from a hat, ‘he added. ‘However, I can’t do that trick Saturday night, since I don’t have my doves here.’ (Longden Hall frowns on the keeping of doves in the rooms.) But watch out for those rabbits! The time of the Magic Acts has been scheduled for one hour intervals beginning at 5:30. The shows will last twenty-five min-
.V utes and will be held in the fifthsixth grade wing. Saturday night will be this young prestidigitator’s debut in Greencastle, but is certain not to be the last, since he has decided to make himself available for local groups. ‘We feel so fortunate to be first to introduce a talent such as this t o Greencastle!’ reports Mrs. Robert Morris, chairman of the Fiesta, herself a native of St. Louis. So before leaving the Northeast School FIESTA DE LA OLIMPIADA on Saturday night, (from 5:00 to 9:00) be sure to get in line for the BRUCE HETZLER MAGIC SHOW. Hasta Luego!
