This policy,, running counter to
the announced wishes of the Rhee
government, was adopted unani
mously by. the seven nation, in
tcrvm Korean Committee set up
last week- to start planning, for
postwar unification of the war
battered nation. It would remain
in force pending post war nation
wide elections for a unified gov
ernment for all Koreans.
It was not immediately known
what MacArthur, as overall UN
commander, feels should be done
about interim North Korean civil
administration as his armies lib

The committee, under the
chairmanship of Carlos P. Romulo
of . the Philippines, was ' to "ad

Commission arrives on the scene.
The new group, composed of the
seven nations on the interim

The proposal to keep the Rhee
government from extending its
civil authority to North Korea as
MacArthur's armies advance was
made earlier this week by Aus

five of the other six members ap
proved this policy, and the Neth

UNC Graduate
Given AquittaE
In Durham
Caustic Rebuke
Made By Judge
After Decision
Special to The Daily Tar Heel
DURHAM, Oct. 12 A Carolina
graduate who circulated a Com
munist Stockholm Peace Treaty
here in August as a "test case,"
won an acquittal today and a
sharp rebuke.
William McKee Evans was ar
rested Aug. 22 when he attempt
ed to get three policemen to sign
a supposed Stockholm Peace
Treaty. When taken into police
headquarters he stated that he
purposely attempted to get him
self arrested to test the validity
of a new ordinance under which
police have the authority to ar
rest anyone passing out the pe
titions. In giving Evans the acquittal,
Judge Henry L. Stevens also ren
dered a caustic rebuke to the for
mer student. Stevens act-used the
26-year-old Evans of "Commu
nist-inspired" activities.
Evans said after the trial that
"the charges against me have
been dropped because the people
of Durham nave refused to see
their Constitutional rights of pe
tition violated."
"However, the defense of our
libqrties is an ancient fight and
this .victory does not end- it.
Eternal vigilance will be requir
ed if we are to keep the freedom
that we have always known."
Judge Stevens accused Evans
of being among the group using
the Constitution to hide behind
while "attempting to scuttle the
very country that Constitution
stands for."
Judge A. R. Wilson, who is
sued the order to police to ar
rest the petitioners, also branded
the petition as communistic in
open court. Wilson stated, "I can
prove without a shadow of doubt
that the leader of the Communist
party in North Carolina who
lives in Chapel Hill, got Evans
to make the test case."

18-Year-0lds;
Mew Goal Cited
Tough Job Seen
In Winning Over
Solons-Hcrshey
WASHINGTON, Oct. 12 (UP)
-Maj. Gen. Lewis B. Hershey,
National Selective Service Direc
tor, said today the question "of
asking Congress to lower the
draft age to 18 is being "seri
ously considered."
He made the statement soon
after President Truman issued
strict, new draft regulations for
doctors, dentists and veterina-
ians. They are aimed to guar
antee minimum health standards
for civilians and put younger
medics in uniform first."
In a speech before the Wash
ington Chapter of the American
Veterans Committee, Hershey
said World War II .veterans could
be "wholly" excepted if draft
boards were allowed to tap the
"very rich source of manpower"
represented by 18-year-olds.
Under present draft regulations,
men 18 through 25 must register
for the draft but only those 19
or above may be inducted.
Queried by reporters whether
he is ready to ask Congress for
an, 18-year-old draft, Hershey
refused to comment except to say
the question is being "seriously
considered."
He conceded he was getting in
to a "dangerous field" and said
he didn't know if Congress could
be sold on the idea. He said se
lective service could get more
men by lowering the draft age
than by raising it because more
older men have dependents. j
Veterans now are draft-proof
but Hershey has said repeatedly
it may be necessary to take them
if the armed forces continue to
build toward President Truman's!
goal of 3,000,000 men in uniform.!
The medical regulations, an
nounced by the White House in
Mr. Truman's absence, make it.
difficult for those affected to ob
tain deferments unless their serv
ices are vitally needed at home.
All medical men under age 51
are covered and the vanguard
of 19,000 will register Monday.
Barring an unexpected surge of
volunteers, the first group of 300
will be inducted into the Army
on Nov. 15.
Unlike the regular 19-through-25
draft, in which older men ar
taken first, the medical draft will
reach younger men first provid
ed they did not See extensive
service in World War II.
All deferments will be decided
by local draft boards, with sthe
advice of local medical commit
tees. The boards will be required
to make sure a doctor's induction
will not cause health services in
his community to fall below "rea
sonable, minimum standards."

students to Durham where the

7:30.
John Slemp, chairman of the

the train departure time has been

so that students will not have to
reserve hotel rooms. With the
train fare set at $13.11 for the

ig- rime
NEW YORK, ; Oct. 12 (P) College football, beset by" spiraling
costs of everything from adhesive tape to star halfbacks, "is on
the verge of pricing itself right out of business," Life Magazine
declares in-an article appearing in this week's issue.
- Asserting that it costs $275,000 a year not counting player
subsidies - and other "hidden" expenses to maintain a big time
football team, the magazine says that some schools are losing
money and giving up in disgust.
"The good old days, when a college could get rich simply by
violating a few amateur ideals, are dead," Life says. "Halfbacks
can no longer be bought for $50 and a free education.
"There are no amateur standards left worth mentioning.. It is
mostly touchdowns and dollars and cents. As a big business, foot
ball has not only kept up with the pace of inflation but is way
out in front ruiming' interference for it."
The article says it cost the University of North Carolina $275,-
j 000 again not counting player
! Reason. '
Life quotes Coach Carl Soavely. of North Carolina as saying: ,
"The tendency is to dip into gate receipts to go out and get
more players to build bigger and better teams, then build bigger
stadiums to get" bigger crowds to get-more money to spend on
more players t build bigger and better teams.
. "There isr ho tfamh'excuse for the $1,000 in the bank. I believe
in declaring these players ineligible. The only way you're going
to control the alumni is to make them think their money is going
to hell."
The most important single item of expenses, the Life article
says, never shows on the books at most schools.
"That is charged to organizations like Educational Foundation,
Inc., a group of loyal North Carolina alumni who maintain a
fund of $500,000 and sweeten it by $150,000 each year," Life
points out.
"Ohio State has its Front Liners and Southern California its
Trojan Club; Oklahoma's Quarterback Club dug deep in its pocket
to buy talent last year."

'Mo' Leads Attack
On Commie Port
TOKYO. Friday, Oct. 13 (AP) The U. S. Battleship
Missouri led a heavy Allied sea-air bombardment Thursday
that set aflame the North Korean port of Chingjin, near the
Siberia-Manchurian borders.
United Nations ground troops
were advancing relentlessly on
the North Korean capital of
Pyongyang from the south and
southeast against weakening Red
resistance.
The attack on Chongjin, on the
northeast coast, could be . the
softening-up process for an Al
lied landing, or it could be a
diversion to draw attention from
a landing elsewhere. It also could
be merely a routine smash at
targets of opportunity.
The Sept. 15 Allied landings at
Inchon, on the west coast, which
led to smashing of the Red In
vasion of South Korea, were pre
bombarment and a simultaneous
Siberian border and 43 miles
churia border at the closest
points. It is linked by rail with
Manchuria.
Carrier-based planes rocketed
the city for two days before tne
attack from the sea opened Thurs
day. The U. S. Cruiser Helena led
the sea strike with a quick shell
ing from close up, with her 8
inch guns. Then the ponderous
Missouri began throwing in one
ton missiles from threfe of her
nine 16-inch guns.
The U. S. Cruiser Worchester,
the British Cruiser Ceylon, and
the Australian Destroyer Warra
munga also- participated.
Photographer - correspondent
Gene Herrick, who watched the
assault from the decks of the
Missouri, said part of the city
was ablaze one hour after the
shelling. -
