FURIOUS FIGHTING EXPLODES
Lions At Erwin f
Honor Wives !
And Teachers 1
Faulty translation of a pnrvirb
was blamed by Professor JosefMß.
Robinson of. Wake Forest for same
of the faults of teaching today. Sic
proverb, “If thou train up i ; tp
in the way he should go, wjEn
he Is old he will not depart fan
it” was badly translated, he assess.
Professor Robinson, teacher Sos
homolitics at the Theological Semi
nary at Wake Forest was ramt
speaker at the Ladies-Tekclrs
night program of the Erwin Ltejhs
Club Tuesday evening. HomolltKS,
he defined as the art of preachifg.
The speaker, a graduate of tpe
Union Theological Seminary jin
Virginia was a Baptist pastor for
12 years. He attended the Southern
Baptist Seminary at Louisville Jot
post-graduate work.
Explaining his reason for ceasing
as pastor and entering on his teach
ing career, he said, “I have been
trying to serve my God for 30 years,
and it came to me recently that I
could multiply my efforts by teaeh
r lng others to preach.”
He told the group he was glad
to represent this baby institution
which now has 85 students. They
come from all states, he said, and
although most are young, one man
is 51. He had been preaching but
had not had the advantages of theo
logical education. He predicted
that in time, when the seminary
took over the campus, there would
be as many students as there are
now at the college.
Many of the problems encoun
tered at .the seminary, he told the
teachers, were similar to those they
would encounter in their classrooms.
Language problems often trouble
foreign students, but the English
language Is sometimes difficult for
those who are brought up in It.
fro illustrate, he told of the Bra
zilian student who was asked tat
lead- in ncaras.. In his -naitsafrtK*
fugeae. the word presdiTe Tian the
same connotation as pickle, and the
student translated literally. When
he came to the portion of the pray
er “Lord preserve us” the Brazilian
translated the word as pickle.
GIVES EXCERPTS
However, he pointed out, there
are students whose mistakes in Eng
lish are nearly as laughable. As
examples he noted some random
excerpts from papers turned in
which defined a polygon as a man
with too many wives and a bru
nette as a young bear. A. circle,

Biggest Red
Buildup Hit
By UN Troops
BTH ARMY HQ., Korea—
(UP) —Furious fighting ex
ploded all along the 135-mile
Korean front today as Unit
ed Nations forces hacked
at the biggest Communist
buildup since the abortive
Red Spring offensive.
The Bth Army hit the Comrtlun
ists with flame throwers and one of
the heaviest artillery bombard
ment of the war In a desperate
attempt to break resistance at the
western end of the front.
Smaller-scale U. N. attacks were
launched all the way east to the?
Sea of Japan coast, where the
45.000-ton U. S. battleship New
Jersey was pounding enemy de
fenses.
BITTER RESISTANCE
The Reds everywhere put up
bitter resistance. Hand - to - hand
fighting raged west of Chorwon ,on
the west-central front, below Kum
song on the east-central front,* and
northwest of “punchbowl valley”
on the eastern front.
The Allies were up against Com
munist positions strengthened dur
ing the truce talks, and the Reds
were trying hard to complete their
buildup for an expected fall offen
sive. i
HEAVY RED TRAFFIC
U. N. pilots reported the heaviest
Communist traffic behind the front
since the enemy offensives lost
May. The airmen spotted 4,386
trucks Tuesday and destroyed or
damaged 606 of them.
One hundred and seventy massed
British Commonwealth and Ameri
can guns, from 25-pounders to 155-
