The 'campaign Is under: the di rection of r Miss j Jennelle Vande vort, former YW president, and the chapel i: exercises yesterday were featured by! a shdrt. talk giv en by a Russian student, Crothers, who has been a political prisoner in Russia ; and who understands the Conditions in Europe from" first hand experience. r It was pointed out that a great number of! foreign students have to 'struggle for a: long time to get enough money" tbf attend & college, and that some who are not strong enough' cannot stand, the struggle, and as a result lose all faith in themselves and In' humanity. The feeling that other students are helping1 them in their work,-how" ever, does a great deal to hdlding their faith and gives them moral support to continue their work.
