The appearance of Professor Albert Einstein at a meeting of the Anti-War Society of Princeton University last night proved such an attraction that a last minute shift in the choice of lecture halls was necessary.
The meeting was shifted from Murray-Dodge Hall, which seats fewer than 100, to the auditorium of the Cliosophic Society, which accommodates 300. All seats were occupied quickly and an additional 150 students sat on the floor and jammed themselves against the walls.
