I i Reds Rule Campus Club RANGOON W Like many other schools Rangoon University Satur day found itself in the middle of n ideological contest to win minds. Mainly because of lethargy or disinterest in politics among some segments of the student body, the Communists have emerged as spokesmen for the majority. This does not mean that most of the 9,000 Rangoon students are Communists. It is doubtful if more than 200 hard-core Reds are on the campus. But aided by financial support from the Red Chinese embassy, the Communist-led Students' Un ion Front is the strongest organ ization on the campus. It seized on legitimate student complaints, used them as election issues and was able to tout itself as the popular champion of academic privileges. There had been student com plaints about overcrowded dormi tories, high entrance fees, lack of study space and short vacations. Knowing the financially drained university could net cope with these complaints, the Communists used them heavily during the campus election, , OTIS BELL is minister of the First Christian Church, Ninth and Pine streets, now hav ing an evangelistic crusade which will continue through November 17.

Wig Knotters Scarce; Old England Upset LONDON (B-Wig knotters are getting scarce. "We just can't get enough of mem, says Robert Harris, mana ger of Charles Fox Ltd., wig makers. "Ours is a dying trade." Knotters tie strands of Japan ese, German and Italian hair to gauze mounts stretched over dum my domes. A couple of hundred years ago a man s station in life could al most be judged by his wigs and how well he kept them powdered. "Today, most of our production goes to actors and actresses," Harris said. We make a few wigs privately." That covers gentlemen or ladies shy of hair. The wigmaking trade is not easy. A seven-year apprenticeship is required. Judges and lawyers in court wear wigs but these need not be of the same quality as stage or private headpieces. Elected Richard A.

A special section to be opened later will deal with research into Negeb minerals.
