Dewey to Address Student Law Group

Thomas E. Dewey, former governor of New York and twice-defeated Republican presidential candidate, will be in Cambridge today to address the Student Bar Association on the "Lawyer and Politics."

The non-partisan talk, scheduled for 8 p.m. in Langdell North Middle, will consider the problems that a lawyer encounters when he enters politics. Dewey is the third of a series of speakers addressing the SBA on this topic. During the fall term Theodore R. McKeldin, governor of Maryland and Joseph Cox, Justice of the New York Supreme Court spoke. The group will sponsor a final talk in the spring by Paul Butler, Chairman of the Democratic National Committee.

Non-members of the Student Bar Association will have to pay a 25-cent admission charge to the meeting.

Dewey first gained fame as a racket busting prosecutor in New York during the '30's. He ran unsuccessfully for Governor of New York State in 1938, but was successful four years later for the first of his three terms.
