The big ram escaped, without injury, but a cople of the Blue Devils did not.' Two were report edly injured, although not ser ibusly, in a clash with a large number of Carolina men.

Taft as he con cluded the series of three Weil lectures and ended his "collegiate cavalcade" of North Carolina. His proposed "affirmative cam paign in behalf of liberty" would be "definitely moved away from the Department of State" and the Voice of America, which is an or ganization, according to Taft, run by people "who do not know what 'democracy' is or what makes America tick." The candidate for the Republi can presidential nomination told his full-house Memorial Hall audience that there should be "somewhere in our government . . . an agency completely advised as to the character and identity of all those forces and individuals fighting for freedom throughout the Communist world." This agency, he said, would be able to organize these anti-communist forces to set up the kind of, propaganda through local newspapers, local radio and pam phleteering which, ... will most effectively advance the cause of liberty in their country. He further advocated the es tablishment of active under ground movements in the Soviet Union and its satellite countries c!a P First Issue Due Monday - Quarterly Praised Highly By Literary Men At UNC "Tf wp don't want to become A-a. known exclusively as a football university, we must do something Howlnn an exnression of our 'intellectual and artistic life.

"A small amount of money,- if well spent, could succeed in sub stantially building up a love for freedom in Soviet dominated ter ritory, which would have a most chilling effect on any Soviet idea of military invasion of Europe and might lead to the ejection of Communist control in some, of these governments," Taft assert ed. The propaganda, he said "must meet and disprove the lies of the Communists about America, and the communists are expert liars. We cannot afford to have our own government advertising to the world the faults of America, and exaggerating them to a degree out of all relation to the facts It must be an expert job, run by specialists in each country whom it may necessary to train - as 'Commy' propagandists have been trained in Moscow." fTf we could push1 back com munism into Russia itself, if we could free the iron-curtain clun- tries in Europe - and at least part of China, then it seems to' me that freedom . and communism could live side by side.
