VOLUME LIX Caravan Rolls Into Territory M If IMAtra I lmA Small Contingent Welcomes Team A r. di t. j mult nunc i rm hi t By Roy Parker. Jr. f SOUTH BEND, Ind., Sept 29 It was a long, hard thousand-mile , trip, but we made it. I Our small caravan rolled into South Bend today about the same , time the team flew in, 2 o'clock ihis afternoon, and we joined the small contingent , of Tar Heels i greeting the players before they were hustled 15 miles away to Elkhart. The trip up was what you'd call completely uneventful. The only familiar faces we saw on the en tire route belonged to two fresh men bumming north in Roanoke, Va. Tar Heel cars piling into South Bend were anything but nonde script. Confederate flags, blue and white streamers, and booster flags fluttered from every one to let local residents know they had officially beeninvaded from the South. We've already won the hearts of the cops. 4 By game time tomorrow, an estimated 2,000 "North ?Carolin ians will be packed into this in dustrial city of more than 100, 000. Most of the University and state bigwigs are staying at the downtown Oliver Hotel. Probably the . most unusual thing we noticed on the Notre Dame campus (unusual to us) was the ample parking space available. And .we saw the rest of the campus, with student guid es meeting us at the main gate to escort us and point out the scenery. The Daily Tar Heel delegation joined wire service and news paper sports writers from all parts of the country this evening at a press party fpr visiting mem bers of the Fourth Estate. We thought possibly the festivities would make the- waiting for game time tomorrow pass a little fast . er. - . But K-hour, kickoff time, -.still seems a long way off for us Tar Heels. World In Brief NEW YORK, Sept. 29 (UP) Every plainclothes policeman in New York was demoted today in the most drastic shakeup in po lice department history. Three hundred-thirty six plain clothesmen were "busted" by the new police commissioner, Thomas F. Murphy, as Gov. Thomas E. Dewey threatened to step into the big city scandal over- gamb ling and graft to expose "the higher ups." - WASHINGTON, Sept. 29 (UP) Identified American casualties in the Korean war through Sept. 22 totaled 17,220, including 2, 441 dead, the Defense Depart: rnent announced today. Identified casualties are those whose next of kin have been of ficially notified. , tt t TTcuTMn M V Sent. 29 (UP)-An eight-nation resolution implying that Gen. Douglas Mac Arthur's United Nations forces are authorized to cross the 38tn parallel was put before the Gen eral Assembly tonight. Associated Press South Koreans Halt At Line Shell Reds, Await UN Decision TOKYO, Saturday, Sept. 30 (&) Advancing South Korean forces slammed artillery fire into fugitive Reds crouched on the 38th parallel boundary of Com munist North Korea today, but they were under orders of the Allied command to halt the chase at the parallel and regroup. Whether the victorious Allied forces, having smashed the Red invasion of South Korea, will eventually go after the Red Army leftovers in North Korea was a question not yet answered by the United Nations supreme com mand. The order to halt for regroup ing went out from U.S. Eighth Army Headquarters Friday night Hershey Wants Draft For Fathers And Vets WASHINGTON, Sept. 29 () Maj. Gen. Lewis B. Her shey today urged that the draft be thrown open to veterans and men with dependents and that the length of service be stretched to 30 months. It is now 21 months. Hershey, Director of Selective ; r Service, also suggested that three months of basic training be given youth before they reach the draft age of 19. ' The official, appearing before the House Armed Services Com mittee, talked of reaching a 1,500,000-man Army in two or three years (apparently about doubling the present force). The committee is studying possible changes in draft regulations. Hershey said his pool of men under 26 years of age and eligible for the draft under present regu lations is down to 1,500,000 and that the rejection rate under De fense Department standards of men- called before draft boards runs about 50 per cent. He recommended: 1. Extending the period of draft service, with six months to be spent in training and 24 months in service. This would require an act of Congress. - 2. Changing the rules for de ferment because of dependency so - that collateral dependents wouldn't count. Selective Service officials said that their use of the term "collateral" does not apply to wives,- children, parents, broth ers and sisters. It does apply to aunts, couisns, uncles and the like. 2,000 Sign ND Telegram Some 2,000 victory-hungry Carolina ' students, as well as President-Elect Gordon Gray, yesterday signed their names to a "pep telegram" which will be delivered to the Tar Heel foot ballers at half time in South Bend today. The telegram, outgrowth of an idea originated last year by Chapel Hill merchants, was sent last night ' from Western Union here. While no official account wis available early, last night, it stimated that nearly 2,000 was es signatures were attached Jerry Sternberg, president of the University Club which helped push the event, termed the "nick-el-a-name-drive" successful. He thanked Wilton Stone, man ager of Western Union, Daily Tar Heel columnist Harry Sjiook, and officials of Lenoir Hall and the Carolina Theater for helping the two-day whirlwind campaign. "And my deepest appreciation, Sternberg added, "to the dozen coeds who gave a lot of time and effort to the telegram." & II I just as the South Korean Third Division -chased retreating Red troops to the parallel on the east coast and shelled them squarely astride the line. The 38th parallel, originally the dividing line between American and Russian occupation forces at the time of the Japanese surrend er five years ago, is not recogniz ed by either side. - Both the United Nations-sponsored Korean Republic and the Soviet-sponsored Red regime al ways have claimed sovereignty over all Korea, but until the Red invasion of June 25, the parallel was a real, even though unrecog nized boundary.

U-'iaoaatnwi'-'itt. I Leif Erickson looked down on the east end of that line from an ah plane Friday. He reported he saw Allied artillery shells hitting ridg es almost exactly on the parallel. The Reds, he said, apparently were trying to dig in along the line four or five miles south of Yangyang and about two miles inland from the sea of Japan; Erickson also said he saw an Allied cruiser and four detrpy ers idling close to shore where the line runs to the sea. The warships had the coastal highway under observation, but fired no shots while Erickson's plane cir cled several hours over the paral lel.

Wallace today wrote to Chinese Communist Premier Mao Tze-Tung urging him to support friendship with the United States and spun "sla vish obedience" to Moscow. ; Declaring that "Americans hav been traditionally friends oi the Chinese and want to ''continue to be friends," the former Vice President wrote in an open letter: "Unless the new China is in terested in joining with the U.S. S.R. in an insane drive toward world conquest, it is high time that she consider the fundamen tals of an understanding with the U. S. as a necessary prelim inary to settling the Korean prob lem, the Formosan problem and entry into the United Nations." Wallace's appeal was sent by airmail to the Chinese Commu nist leader in Peiping. "I am writing to you as one farmer to another," Wallace's letter began. "As farmers we are both interested in a world at peace with more food andvcloth ing available for the hungry multitudes."

NUMBER 9 J J(oy Srea The trip over to South Bend will be made at 10 this morning and the game is scheduled to stai t at 2 o'clock thi3 afternoon. The Tar Heels are in excellent spirits and fully expect to be the first team in four years to walk off the field on the long end cf the count. The last time the feat was accomplished was back in the last game of the 1945 season when the powerful Great Lakc Naval eleven toppled the Irish. Since then, Notre Dame has ram bled" through a 38-game slate without defeat. All Tar Heelia well remembers the first Carolina-Notre Dame clash played last season in New York City when Carolina battled bravely for three quarters before bowing, 42-6. The first quarter score stood at 6-0 in favor of the Tar Heels and the Irish tied it up in the second quarter as the count was 6-all. Many of the heroes of Carolina';, valiant struggle last season .will be on hand for the conflict today. Dick Bunting, who was both ttic. offensive and defensive standout of the game while filling v. shoes of the absent Charlie Jus tice, will be back to pilot the Tjr Heel offense. Irv (Huck) Holdash, big cente and linebacker who played rno .t of the game at tackle, will abo be on hand to uphold the Tar Heel defensive line, considered one of the. nation's best. Holdash was picked on the Irish all-opponent team last year as a rr ward for his performance again t Notre Dame in Yankee Stadium. With one game already under their belts, the Tar Heels will have a slight advantage over ibo big Notre Dame aggregation. La :,t Saturday's 13-7 win over SlaU; showed that Carolina had several weaknesses which would have to be cleared up, but it also proved that Carolina was still a very powerful team. Irish Coach Frank Leahy, on hand for the Carolina-State clash, remarked after the game that Carolina was much improver! over last season and termed th"? Tar Heels as "great." Leahy and his eleven will r.n much of Bunting today and it was little Dick who dashed '!' yards in the opening quarter l-i X weekend to rack up the gatn?'. first score. Another gentleman who v;ll undoubtedly see a great deal r f action is Bud Wallace, 200 ponnH- er from Kinston, who scored fh game-winning touchdown, ("ov ' Carl Snavely said that the turn ing point of the State game carne when he sent Wallace in with in structions to run with the ball. Both Wallace and Bunting wil! see .action at the offensive fall back slot although Bunting ma be used more on defense.
