Steward who were classmates with him at the Uni versity of Indiana in Blooming ton, Ind. Mr. Steward and the Republi can presidential nominee, en tered college as freshmen in 1909 and sat next to each other in a history class. "Willkie first came to school in a grey coat and brown trousers, later he wore turtle neck sweaters and never seemed to care much about dressing up", Mr. Stew ard recalled today. "If you met him just once, you would never forget him," the local man said.

There were three brothers, Robert, Herman and "Lewis" all in college at the same time and they were known as the "Willkie brothers". None of them ever had much money and therefore did not Join cam pus clubs or enter much into college activities. Mr. Roberts recalled that later on in school. Mr. Willkie be came affiliated with Beta Theta Pi fraternity at the same time that Paul V. McNutt was in the house. He said the man in col lege had a keen mind, who, when he reached an opinion voiced it when the opportunity arose. The Medford lawyer said that Willkie was graduated from the liberal arts and law schools, that he was popular and pos sessed the same qualities of wholesomeness and honesty which appeal to the voting pub lic today.
