More than 53 per cent of the Freshmen residing in the Yard have joined the Willkie Club of Harvard and are working for the election of the Republican candidate this November, Theodore J. Frazier, president of the Club, said last night, as he announced the Club's plans for the next two weeks.
Two Willkie rallies have been scheduled by the Club, though the speakers have not as yet been chosen. Frazier hopes that Senator Edward Burke, Democrat, of Nebraska, who has come out for Willkie, will speak at the largest of the meetings.
Accepting a challenge of John M. London '41, president of the Roosevelt Club here, the local Willkie group has scheduled several debates with Roosevelt supporters, including a debate between Langdon P. Marvin '41 and Thomas Matters '43 at Pine Manor next Wednesday. George Saxion '44 has been chosen chairman of the Freshman Willkie Club.
