Pope Pius
Takes Turn
For Worse
CASTEL GANDOLFO. Italy (Ji
The condition of Pope Pius XII
grew worse Tuesday night.
The 82-ycar-old head of the Ro
man Catholic Church had rallied
earlier from a coma and partial
paralysis that attended a stroke
Monday, but other symptoms re
curred. -
Then late last night a Vatican
i official said flatlv Iho PnnUff'c I
condition had taken a turn for the
, worse. Pressed to elaborate on the
degree of worsening, he replied
only: "I stick by what I said."
A doctor close to the situation
said the Pope was in worse condi
tion than a-medical bulletin issued
at 6 p.m. had indicated. This
source said the Pontiff actually
was still afflicted with partial
paralysis that affected his upper
body, face and speech, i
There also were signs that the
Pope possibly was delirious.
, Msgr. Angelo .Dell'Acqua, , sub
stitute secretary of state, visited
the bedside and said the Pope had
asked "why the audiences had
been suspended."
AUDIENCE IMPOSSIBLE
ndicatld that 'he
i J'opc that audi-
ftfne being im
possible. The Pope has received
millions of people ia audience dur
ing his 19-year i reign.
Another indication that Ihe Pon
tiff's' condition ' had become more
erave was the announcement that
the Vatican press office planned
to remain open throughout the
night
A slight detcrioriation had been
reported in the Pope's condition
earlier in the evening.
Vatican sources said members of
the papal household disclosed the
return of a urinary difficulty. His
physicians had reported it cleared
up this morning.
OTHER INDICATIONS
Other indications of deteriora
tion were a quickened pulse a
beat of 102 per minute and a
slight fever at a temperature of
99.5 degrees. Normal body tem
perature is about 98.6.
The Pope's condition improved
markedly during the day.

COMPARATIVE SURVEY COMPILED The Student Legislature
Emergency Dormitory Rent Committee has compiled a comparative
survey of rents in other universities. Shown above are figures of 17
colleges and how they compare with UNC's. Listed are the square
feet per occupant, rent on 3-man rooms, whether the other colleges
have a self-liquidating plan, and the cost of construction per student.
Red (Zhina Planes
Touch
' TAIPEI. Formosa -MV : Com-j
munist planes swooped over- Que-j
moy and touched off hail of Na-
tionalist antiaircraft .fire .Tuesday,
straining the Red-proclaimed cease-,
fire in Formosa Stnut.
The Nationalist firing was the
first since Red China proclaimed a
week-long halt in its artillery pound
ing of the offshore island effective
early Monday. No further clashes
were reported, and the Nationalists
took advantage of the truce to push
in more supplies by air and sea.
Eight planes in three formations
approached Quemoy at 4:25 p.m.,
the Nationalist Defense Ministry
said. They streaked over the island,
then raced for the mainland with
antiaircraft shells bursting around
them and machine gun tracers prob
ing the sky.
AP Correspondent Gene Kramer
reported from Quemoy the Red
planes made two passes -through
a high overcast but did not open
fire.
Maj. Gen. I Fu-En, Nationalist
Air Force intelligence chief, said
both jets and propeller planes may
have been involved. This raised
speculation that the slower propeller
craft may have taken photographs
while MIG fighters provided cover.
The Red flights did not necessari
ly violate the truce pledge. Peiping's
original announcement, said only that
artillery shelling of Quemoy would
be suspended for seven days. One
condition, however, was that the
United States cease convoying Na-
tionalist ,supply ships to .Quemoy,. i
In Washington Sta:e Department j
Press Officer Lincoln White de- j
scribed the flights ,as provocative.
Therefore, he said, Ihe Nationalist
antiaircraft fire did not break the

Jn pointing out problems under
this plan, the Student Legislature
j. Emergency Dormitory Rent Com
mittee has compiled a comparative

I The self liquidating policy means
! that neSv dorms constructed are fin-
I p.nced by 40-year bond issues. The
j source of revenue for repaying
j these bonds when thev come due
I .
j is from room rent net income. And
this is why room rent goes up every
time plans for new dorms are ap
proved. The "self liquidating" plan was
applied to all housing construction
in state-supported colleges by the

bly. RENT HAS jIXCREASER
On the basis of this law, room
rent at the University hr:. increased
several times from the $67.50 annu-
v.l charge in 1917 to the present
ist 71. 50 'for men). This increase of

schools were given an optional
question of their opinion of the

swered opposed the plan, except
for unqualifif d aflirmatives from
the univesrities of Connecticut and
Texas.
Many of the coJJi-gcs expressed
interest in working out a percentage
system, part aporopriation financed
