They wanted to see the grand finale which was to come moments later. As it fell, yells of "timberrrrrrr" and a triumphant "hurray" burst forth in unison from the 200 or more curious students. Once again mankind overcame one of nature's phenomena. After the oak had been felled, activity resumed and sounds made from quick-stepping students hur rying to classes could be heard up and down the campus walkways. According to Norman Armstrong of the Armstrong Tree Co., the Post Oak was dead, having suffer ed from a blight called Endothia which has recently been attacking North Carolina Chestnut trees. Armstrong said also that during a re-grading of the campus 30 years ago dirt used to fill in places caused stoppage of oxgen and water to the roots of the oak. The tree had been dying slowly since that time and when the leaves didn't come out this year the de cision was made to cut it down.

Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko and French Foreign Min ister Maurice Couve DeMurville expresed hope that a Summit Meet ing will result from the foreign minister conference. Secretary of State Chritian A. Htrter, last of the three to arrive, made no mention of a summit meeting. He said he hoped the talks would lead to a lasting peace. The United States wants a sum mit meeting only if the foreign min isters make progress. Selwyn Lloyd, British Foreign Secretary, Ls due in tomorrow from London and will go into a secret meeting almost at once with Her ter and Couve De Murville. "I have come to Geneva to join my British and French colleagues in discussions with the Soviet for eign minister of various aspects of the problem of a divided Ger many , Herter said at the airport. "The United States approaches these negotiations with a sincere dtslre to achieve positive results. We trust that our deliberations will pave the way for a final and over due settlement which would serve to riduce international tension and be a step on the long road to es tablishing a just and durable peace in Europe." Couve de Murville said the Soviet Union had provoked the crisis over Berlin and added: "the object of this conference is to find a way out of this (Berlin) crisis and to pre pare the way for a summit meet-ting." This indicated a possible loosen ing of the French position. France ha? backed the United States in insisting that the foreign ministers produce some positive results before there is any meeting of the heads ot government.

Medical Scho ol To Hear Pathologist Lecture 1 v 4v.v Million Dollar Fire Begun By 10-Year-Old BALTIMORE, May 9 UFi Police said a 10-year-old boy ward of the city welfare department has admitted starting a million-dollar fire that destroyed a large grocery warehouse early today. The young negro boy was picked up about 4 a.m., after he had been seen at the fire for more than three hours. Officers questioned him at length at a district police station, then reported the child admitted setting the fire accidentally. The 12-alarm blaze turned the large one-story warehouse of B. Green & Co. into a charred mass of ruined grocery stores, tumbled walls and a half-melt ed roof. Police said the boy said he was looking for canned goods that might have spilled from the warehouse loading platform about 12:30 a.m. when he dropped a match into some paper.

He told of Freedom Fight ers, ordinary men and women, who struggled to establish their inde pendence from Russian domination Finally they were defeated, he said, by treachery and by the over whelming might of the Red army.

The student was not allowed to face his accuser was not allowed to examine the quiz on which he was supposed to have cheated, and was treated in a completely arbitrary manner by the court. After some deliberation by the judges, Brooks was awarded the Mangum Medal by a vote of 2 to 1 The Mangum Medal is presented each year to the outstanding senior orator.

The lecture is open to the public. It will be held in the Clinic Auditorium. The Lee B. Jenkins Endowment was established in 1954 by Mrs. Jenkins in memory of her husband, a prominent civic-minded industri alist of Kinston. Since its establish ment, the endowment has brought some of the country's most prom inent medical scientists to Chapel Hill for lectures and consultations. Dr. Klemperer is a native of Austria who came to America m 1921. In 1926 he was appointed pathologist to the Mt. Sinai Hospit al in New York City, a post he filled until his retirement several years ago. Since his retirement he has di vided his time between the Cell Research Laboratory of the Mt. Sinai Hospital, where he directs basic cellular research, and the Library of the New York Academy of Medicine, where he continues his studies of the historical back ground of our present concepts in medicine. In addition to training many of the country's current pathologists he has made a number of out standing contributions to medicine. His most noteworthy studies have been on the so-called "collagen diseases", such as rheumatic fev er and rheumatoid arthritis. His basic investigations stimulated widespread interest in these diseas es and have led to much better un derstanding of their nature and treatment. WC Tours!
