At the outset of the program a moder ator will present a brief sum mary of what is currently hap pening in Congress and of the present foreign policy of the country. However, he will make no attempts at interpretation. Following that, each member of the panel will speak for five minutes expressing his own per sonal views on the subject. Graham Memorial officials are hoping to have a panel of at least five or six members. Four persons have already offered their services as panel members for Thursday's discussions.

In another maneuver, the Chin ese Communists, formally an nounced they would "assume the responsibility to advise the Chin ese volunteers to return to China" if the principle of withdrawal of foreign troops is put into effect. The new stand by Mao Tze Tung's government seemed "almost certain to postpone for some time passage of the American propos al to brand Peking an aggressor and to consider- immediately the imposition of punitive "measures. Indian Delegate Sir Benegal Rau told the General Assembly's main political committee that Mao's stand had been formally communicated to India's ambassa dor in Peking, Sardar Pannikar. It was in reply to two questions seeking clarification of Peking's earlier answer to the UN's cease fire offer an . answer interpreted by the United States and many other non-Communist nations as a flat rejection. , A highly-informed source said the two questions originated not with v India but . with Canadian Prime Minister Louis St. Laurent, who was understood to have re layed them to Peking through Indian Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru. Rau told the 60-nation political committee that Peking's reply to the Indian Ambassador in the Communist capital "indicates the nature of the points raised." GM Opens Exhibit By Editors Of Life Beginning today and continu ing through Feb. 1, Graham Mem orial has arranged to show The American Revolution, an exhib ition prepared by the editors of Life magazine. This exhibition in the Williams Wolfe Lounge, offers a full ac count of the situations and events which marked the most vital years in our national history, and attempts to show their interre lation with the changing scene in 18th Century Europe. Americans do not always re member that the American Rev olution, like Gual, had three parts. The first, of course, was the war of the colonies for independ ence from Britain. The second was the larger war for world supremacy fought by Britain and France, of which the colonies' struggle became a part. The third part was a social revolution re sulting in the repudiation of all class differences and the creation of a democratic republic. The exhibition endeavors to make these separate aspects of the American Revolution easily understandable and dramatically effective as they combine to tell the whole story. Literally hundreds of pictures, assembled by researchers for the special article in Life, July 3, 1950, have been carefully studied and sifted for the exhibition.. The story is revealed chrono logically, beginning with the causes of the colonies' revolt and ending with Washington's in auguration. All of the major incidents are covered, including the opposition to the Stamp Act, the Boston Tea Party, Patrick Henry's oration, Paul Revere and the battld of Lexington and Concord, the cap- VULN 3s NLy TUESDAY, JANUARY 23, 1951 tAt "r "r urrow $1000 Given To Journalism Honors Russell Anonymous Donor Commends Teacher For Contribution A contribution of $1,000 has been made to the University Journalism Foundation as a trib ute to Prof. Phillips Russell, it was announced Saturday at the closing session of the annual North Carolina Press Institute by Foundation President Holt Mc Pherson of Shelby.

"Red Buck," Bryant, 78, a news paper reporter for 56 years, re members when The Daily Tar Heel had competition. Its rival was a short-lived newspaper called the Blue and White. "Back in 1893," said Bryant, "The Daily Tar Heel printed a statement that 'non-fraternity men were sour because they were beyond the pale.' " The squabble resulted in the non-fraternity men publishing their own paper, The Blue and White. It folded in three weeks because the staff lost interest. "I was the treasurer," Bryant said, "and later a fraternity man. The row ended amicably." Bryant is retired now, but he still writes a Sunday column of reminiscence for The Charlotte Observer.

" Ko-Reds Slaughter ROK Engineer Unit TOKYO, Tusday, Jan. 23 (AP) Suddenly aggressive Ko rean Communist troops cut to pieces a battalion of South Korean engineers ' 40 miles inside Allied lines Monday in a flareup of fighting on the right end of United Nations pos itions. '' While details were lacking, headquarters said the engineers appeared to have been ambushed near Andong. This interior road and rail center is 50 miles north of Taegu, the UN northwest bas tion in last summer's battle per imeter. Elements of two North Korean divisions the 2nd and 10th have been identified in hills north of Andong. At full strength this would indicate 20,000 Reds were sifting southward. U. S. 7th Division elements and other Allied troops have been fighting in this barren east-central area against infiltrating Red Korean regulars and local guer rilas. In startling contrast, reinforced Allied hunter-killer teams on the central and western Korean fronts slammed back into Woniu Air- withing 25 miles of Seoul with out finding the fight they were seeking.

Bryant (the initials stand for Henry Edward Cowan) unashamedly admits that he flunked English three times. "I failed English and I've made my living at it ever since," he laughed. One day back in the 90's he was shot at. It happened this way: A singing Texan lived directly beneath Bryant in Old West. Bryant got fed up with Tex's constant singing so he burned a hole in the floor with a hot poker and dropped the poker into the room below. The Texan retaliated by firing a pistol ball through the ceiling into Bryant's room. Fortunately it missed the occupant. The re sult: a trial by the Dialetic Sen ate. The denouement: Bryant licked the Texan. Press ""1 a dispatch from 8th Army Pro: Will Attend Convention Two University professors, Dr. J.
