Vassily Chuikov, Soviet com mander in Germany, announced tonight the Berlin blockade will be lifted at one minute after mid night Thursday morning and from then on 16 allied freight trains a day will be allowed to bring supplies into the city. The allies are ready, and traffic will begin to roll at once by rail, canal and autobahn for the first time since the Russians closed all land routes 11 months ago and tried to starve the western powers out of Berlin. Chuikov's order also decreed the end of police restrictions be tween the eastern and western sectors of Berlin. However, he said the Western Mark will con tinue to be banned in the Soviet zone "pending the decision on the question of currency in Ber lin." The first rail traffic into Berlin will be a British military passen ger train. Next, by a few minutes, will be the crack Berliner Express from Frankfurt. British officials said all techni eal arrangements for resumption of traffic between Berlin and Germany's western zones are be ins handled by German traffic experts. Red Debate Set For Wednesday vited guests. These include State and University officials, mem bers of the University Board of Trustees, and friends of John Motley Morehead. After Dr. Graham's address, Morehead will formally present the Morehead Building and Plan etarium. Following the dedica tion, Governor Kerr bcott win give the speech of acceptance for the University and the State. The group will then observe the premier showing of the Plan etarium, "Let There Be Light," by Dr. Roy Marshall, director of the Planetarium. The performance will last approximately one hour, Marshall said. Before the ceremonies, the guests will attend a luncheon given by Morehead in the dining room of the Planetarium at 1 olclock.- After the luncheon the group will be taken on a tour of the entire building, which will end in the Planetarium .room, where dedication ceremonies will begin at 3 o'clock.

Duke Elhng ton is the leader of a small move ment in this direction. Although several people who heard the concert last year by the Satterfield Orchestra have compared the type of program given to those prominent bands mentioned above, but local audi ences have pretty well agreed that Satterfield's ideas are dis tinctly individual and not imit ative. Five original compositions and an arrangement of an old German round will make up the first half of the program. The original works include: a prelude for or chestra composed by Carolyn Satterfield; a tone poem by bari tone saxophonist Thomas Allred, a sophomore from Greensboro; suites by tenor 'saxophonist Sam uel Andrews, a junior from Dur ham, alto saxophonist Frank Justice, a graduate from Raleigh, and pianist-leader Satterfield, a senior from Spencer.

Then by looking skyward or, more correctly, roofward he may see anywhere from one to a dozen coeds peacefully sun ning in the sun. The coeds began their sunbath ing during the first hot spell. But after several days of playing host to capacity crowds, the roof at the back of Spencer Hall was suddenly empty. When asked why the popular roof was so quickly deserted, one coed said simply "Those damn pledges!" The day before, it seems, some overly - energetic pledges had found that Hell Week "was not so bad after alL" Armed with a long hose and the -blessing of some Spencer cooks who willing ly screwed 'the rubber weapon to a kitchen sink, the pledges went to work. What happened next is the one thing that keeps this story from being dry. Slowly, carefully , one of the pledges moved a stepladder to within firing distance of the roof. Then he ascended and .carefully took aim. . Throughout all the preparations the coeds had not heard a thing. But suddenly a whoosh of cold water told them that something was up. Grabbing towels, blankets and each others hair in the ex citement, the wet, screaming coeds were adequate proof that Oper ations Water was a success. This week, however, the roofs are once more the. center of coed activity. The Spencer girls, re membering the Hell Week epi sode, have moved to another roof, but the boys are still making the most of the situation. Complete evidence has not been (See 5 UN BATHERS, page 4). DURHAM, May 9 (UP) A 19-year-old Duke pre-medical stu dent went quietly back to his studies today after startling sci entists with his dramatic discov ery of a new organism which kills athlete's foot and other fun gus growths. Youthful Glen R. Gale, a slight, dark-haired junior from Mt. Croghan, S. C, said he stumbled onto the organism in a routine soil bacteria study in the Univer sity's botany laboratory, wnen he isolated it for study, the killer organism proved able to stop the growth of fungus. Gale first told of his discovery Saturday before the annual North Carolina Academy of Science meeting at Chapel Hill. A Duke instructor, Dr. John R. Warren, said he advised and assisted Gale in his study. "If the substance can be ex tractedand we believe it can it may have practically unlimited possibilities in the . treatment of plant disease, and certainly in treating superficial fungus skin diseases in humans," Warren said. Warren said the "killer" organ ism had been tested successfully against ringworm, athlete's foot and two lung infections.
