Eleanor Roosevelt Names
UN As The One Existing
Hope For Universal Pe~ce
By EMIL AUH
Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt, speaking at the Memorial Auditorium
Wednesday, declared that the future of the world lies in the hands
of young people tl toughout the world.
Her av..,.,.!arance, sponsored by
the International Cer.ter, attract­ed
a convocation audience of over
2,000 students and teachers.
"I'm not one of those people
who think peace will just descend
on us," she said. "We'll have to
work for it with as much courage
as we put into winning the war.
"Those who worl~ with us have
several questions about our mo­tives.
We don't always speak to
the world with unity ... strength
and consecration. We give the
USSR food for propaganda.
"I think above all we must have
moral and spirtual strength to
show that we do respect all hu­man
personality. If we don't
prove that, then one of our strong­est
arguments is lost, because we
do not prove in actions what we
say in words.
"Political .and economic strength
are not enough. We must be
strong in character. I want to
leave you young people with a
vision of a better world. You will
need courage and the grace of
God to attain it."
We 'Haven't Had Peace'
Mrs. Roosevelt felt that the
United Nations Organizations is
the one existing instrument that
can make world peace a possi­bility.
"The purpose of the United Na­tions,"
she said, "is to create an
atmosphere where peace can
grow." However, she stated, the
UN leaves much to be desired as
an instrument of settling interna­tional
diff.,rences.
"We ought to face the fact that
on the political side, we can only
boast of minor accomplishments,"
she said. "We have not the ma­chinery
to handle political prob­lems.
We haven't really had peace.
"We've brought a truce to the
Dutch and Indonesians, but we
had to do it throu~h persuasion
and public opinion:
Russians 'Frustrating'
"Certain things have gro~
clearer every day. Namely, the
.great rift between the United
States and U.S.S.R. has been the
real stumbling block to the organ­ization
of strength in the United
Nations which would make it pos­sible
to reduce force.
"The differences which exist
between the United States and the
U.S.S.R. are deeply rooted in lack
of understanding, lack of confi­dence,
and in backgrounds of dif­ferent
development and different
histories.
"Some people feel we can never
get together. I don't feel that way.
However, I do get frustrated
sometimes with my Russian col­leagues.
They always speak as
government representatives, nev­er
as one human being to an­other."
Health Most Important
Mrs. Roosevelt said that the
world health organization of the
U. N. had met with heartening
success. "(It) may be on its way
to doing some things which are
vitally important," for the health
of young people of war-stricken
countries is the primary factor
which will enable them to streng­then
their countries once again.
Mrs. Roosevelt indicated, how­ever,
that the organization still
has a long way to go. When she
was in Paris last year as a dele­gate
to the UN, the professors at
the Sorbonne University told her
that more than half of the stu­dents
"did have, have had, or
were about to have tuberculosis."
After Mrs. Roosevelt's address,
President John W. Taylor bestow­ed
upon her the University of
Louisville Award of Merit, and
he presented an honorary degree
of Doctor of Law to Mr. H. Fred­erick
Willkie:
President Taylor opened the
official convocation. Mr. Dann C. ·
Byck, chairman of the Board of
Aldermen, introduced Mrs. Roose­velt.
Pep Clu.b Prexy Elected
By Unanimous Vote
At a meeting of the Pep Club last Tuesday, March 14, Jack
Lynch was unanimously elected president of the Pep Club for the
coming year.
Two other offices were also fil-led
unanimously. Those selected
for these offices were: Betty
Gates Moran, vice-president; and
Jack Wilson, Sergeant-at-arms.
With over 150 members in at­tendance,
the election was car­ried
off with considerably less
dickering than in previous Pep
Club elections.
A motion was made and car­ried
concerning the qualifica­tions
to be set up for the selec­tion
of candidates for the com­ing
years. The motion, made by
Bob Stout who is chairman of the
qualifications committee, stated
that to become a presidential can­didate,
a member must have first
served on the Pep Club Council,
on one of the committees, or have
been an active in the Club for
one year.
This qualification ruling, how­ever,
was not observed in Teus­day's
election. Nominations were
made from the floor, and selection
was based on a simple majority
in a showing of hands.
After the election Mrs. Sher­rill
Brakemeier, faculty advisor
of the Pep Club, gave a short
speech urging the cooperation of
the members with the new of­ficers.
She said that no matter
how good the new officer are,
th~y cannot be effective with­out
the cooperation of all the
members.
Other officers elected · were:
Ethel Scobee, secretary; and Len­ny
Pine, treasurer. ·
Mary Spencer Nay
Exhibit Featured
In Main Library
Mary Spencer Nay, well-known
artist and instructor at the /Ut
Center Association, has a refro­spective
exhibit of paintings and
prints on display in the rotunda
of the Administration Building.
The exhibit is retrospective in
that it represents a ten-:1ear per­iod
of her work. The paintings
were done over a five-year span
from 1945 to 1950 and the prints
from 1940 to 1946.
Miss Nay feels that 'the artist
is not complete until he exhi·bits
... pe must place his work be­fore
the public in order to develop
his powers of self-analysis."
In 1939 Miss Nay was selected
to represent Kentucky in the New
York Worlds Fair art exhibit and
in 1942 she was entered in the
"Artists of Victory !lhow" at the
Metropolitian Museum, New York.
She has also had entries in the
Ohio Valley Exhibition for the
past eight years and in the Vir­ginia
Intermont Regional show for
the last six years.
The show offers a wide choice
of subjects matter and covers a
large portion of Miss Nay's work
span. -

of native painting
since the depression.

Plans laid For Future Teacher's Club
To Publish Work
In British Magazine
Plans were made last Friday night, March 10, for the establish­ment
of a future teacher's Club at the University of Louisville.
The purposes of the club will be
to promote a better. relationship
between the public school system
and future teachers, and to pro­vide
a means whereby people in­terested
in teaching can meet and
discuss problems and exchange
ideas about this prof~ssion.
It was suggested that the club'
become affiliated with the Future
Teachers of America which is a
branch of the National Education
Association. A member of the Fu­ture
Teachers group automatical­ly
becomes a member of the Na­tional
Education Association and
the Kentucky Education Associa­tion
thereby receiving all the
priveleges pertaining to these or­ganizations.
An executive committee was
also set up at the first meeting to
formulate plans for future gather­ings
of the club. Some of tbe top­ics
the committee has seleeted for
discussion are curriculum, devel­opmental
classes, discipline prob­lems,
and social functions. .
All atudets working toward a
secondary or elementary teacher's
certificate are elleible and have
been invited to join the club.
Announcements of future meet•
iDp of the new teacher's club will
be made throuch the c.-•·el aad
