44 Delegates En Route For A.Y.C. Convention

Off for another dizzy ride on the Washington Merry-Go-Round, a record-breaking delegation of 44 Harvard men left the Square yesterday afternoon at 5 o'clock to participate in the annual gathering of the American Youth Congress.

The aims upon which the rival groups in the party had agreed were fourfold: to help keep the peace, to preserve New Deal social gains, to maintain academic freedom, and to exert pressure on Congressmen to adopt National Youth Administration scholarships.

As the result of a plea made yesterday by Michael Millen '44, Roy Atherton '44, and Tom Hall '44, a group of nine Yardlings left for the bus ride to New York yesterday. The delegation of eleven from the Medical School was the largest yet from a graduate department.
