Governor Dever's appearance is the result of a letter written last Friday, asking him to appear at some function of the Young Democrats. The Governor's secretary informed Tobin and Douglas Hobbs '55 yesterday that the Governor "would be pleased to speak before it at the Friday time...

"The other 50% are either finding it pretty tough to make up their minds, or appear to have made them up with such strong misgivings as to indicate the definite possibility of a change later...
