VOLUME LIX Associated Press CHAPEL HILL, N. C. 1HURSDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 1950 United Press NUMBER 43 r U.S. Demands Chinese Halt Aid To Korea Security Council Asks For Chinese Reply To Charges LAKE SUCCESS, Nov. 8 (JP) The United States charged to day the Communist Chinese have recklessly thrown thousands of troops into the war in North Korea and demanded an immedi ate halt to all Red aid to the Communist Koreans. The Securi ty Council thereupon called on. the Communist Chinese to come here and answer the charges. The invitation to the Red Chi nese termed by U. S. delegate Warren R. Austin as a summons to a witness was extended by a vote of 8 to 2. The Council adjourned without setting a date for a new meeting but informed sources indicated the U. S. might toss in a resolu tion tomorrow backing up Au stin's charges and demanding an early meeting. Austin and Na tionalist China's T. F. Tsiang in sisted the invitation must not delay the Council. The invitation was in the form of a British resolution supported by the United States, Russia, Britan, France, Ecuador, India, Yugoslavia and Norway. Nation alist China and Cuba opposed it and Egypt abstained. Nationalist China is one of the Council members holding the ve to but its negative vote did not ; count as a veto since the ques tion of an invitation is only one of procedure? Austin touched off fireworks with blistering charges against Red China based -on a special report from Gen. Douglas Mac Arthur. U.N. Commander in Korea.

App roval Among Southern Universities MEMPHIS, Nov. 8 (UP) There was growing student ap proval today for admittance of Negroes to Southern colleges. A series of U. S. Supreme Court rulings opened the doors of State Universities to Negroes in the past three years, and the situation has been accepted calmly.. Some protest has' come from politicians, while university au thorities have discreetly side stepped critical comment. The students themselves have taken the new development in stride. Thus far, the slow and cautious entry of Negro students into Dixie Universities has been mainly on the graduate school level principally into schools of law. The Southern Conference Ed ucational Fund, Inc., of New Chinese Reds In N. Korea Still Fall Back TOKYO, Thursday, Nov. 9 (UP) Chinese Communist troops throughout North Korea contin ued their unexplained withdrawal for the fourth straight day Thursday under blazing and sus tained attack from the aroused Allied air arm. United Nations patrols pene trated as far as three miles into Communist territory on the northwest front without making heavy contact with the enemy. In the northeast, a U. -S. 10th Corps spokesman said the Reds alsd were retreating before U .S. Marines south of the Choeen Rcsevoir and apparently were "out of contact." The Communist withdrawals wer(made amid a new and mod erated tone in Peking broad casts. The broadcasts seemed to suggest that Ret China may with draw her troops from Korea on the strength of United Nations assurances the Manchurian bor der will be respected. The morning dawned clear over the northern battlefront and warplanes throughout the Far East command were alerted to follow up the massive aerial (See REDS, page 4) Beat Dook Floats Asked For Parade The PiKA fraternity, which is sponsoring the "Beat Dook" float parade, has invited all interested organizations to enter the con test.

Somebody plugs something in the wall and pretty soon your ribs begin humming soft and low, like the tunes of a tuning fork.

Brown describes Of Negroes Grows Orleans, says that an estimated 200 Negroes are now emolled in 21 previously all-white southern colleges and universities. Negroes attend graduate and professional schools in 11 of 17 state universities. Private Colleges in three states admit Negroes. There are some states where laws demand segregation of the races, and Negroes still have not been admitted to white universi ties. However, in specific instances the courts have ruled that Ne groes be admitted to the Univers ities of Oklahoma, Texas, Ar kansas and Louisiana, and the Attorney General of Tennessee recommended admission of Ne groes to the University of Tennessee.

C. Lewis charged here last night in the second of his three McNair Lectures. Speaking in Hill Hall, Dr. Lewis stressed the view that "the least advanced of all the sciences are those having to do Phone Strike Is Threatned Across Nation NEW YORK, Nov? 8 (UP) Key telephone workers walked off the job in 10 cities today, jumping the gun on a scheduled strike which could lead to a nation-wide tele phone tie-up tomorrow. Some 37,000 union workers are scheduled to strike at 6 a. m. EST tomorrow. By post ing pickets around key tele phone exchanges across the nation, they expected to hold other telephone workers off the job and thus cripple the country's telephone service to back their demands for wage increases. , The strike was threatened by the Communications Work ers of America (CIO), which represents some 30.0,000 of the Bell System's 500,000 telephone workers. The workers who walked out today were members 1 of CWA Division 18. They are employed by Western Electric Co., at distributing houses and telephone repair shops. They did not throw picket lines around telephone exchanges in any of the 10 cities tonight, so telephone service was not interrupted. But the full 37,000 Western Electric and Michigan Bell Telephone workers promised to hobble major exchanges with picket lines tomorrow un less contract disputes v were settled in marathon negotiat ing sessions tonight. Couch Method For M a king A Very Vibrant Gal as "circular, cellular massage." Brown, a tall slightly puzzled looking young man, who isn't puzzled at all, is president of a new company which manfac tures a new type of mattress. The mattress has a small motor embedded in the foot of it and the motor makes it behave like a scoop- of gelatin in the mess car of a troop train. "There are other concerns," Brown says, "which manufacture vibrating mattresses. But theirs are products which rely on straight-line vibration." He jerks his fist up and down, smiles patronizingly, conveying of campus newspapers at south ern schools have endorsed the admission of Negroes to theif classrooms. These were at the University of Alabama, Auburn, the University of Mississippi and Millsaps College, a Methodist school in Jackson, Miss. The "Auburn Plainsman" said it doesn't believe the students would object to Negroes attend ing the school. The University of Alabama publication previously carried an editorial in the same vein. A week ago, Albin Krebs, 21-year-old editor of "The Missis sippian" at the University of Mississippi, said that "Negroes should be admitted , "not only to Ole Miss, but to Mississippi State i College and other state-supported I schools." with man's relations with his own kind." The speaker is noted in the psychiatric field. For the past, 14 years he has been Director of the New York Psychiatric Institute and Hospital. Dr. Lewis will give the final lecture of the annual series to night at 8:30 in Hill Hall. "The least .advanced of all, the sciences are those having to do with man's relations with his own kind," he asserted. "Here the scientific method is most diffi cult to apply. However, it can be and is being done with some success." He pointed out the "great lack of adequate financial support to do research on a scale urgently needed in the field of mental health." Dr. Lewis stated that "about $200,000,000 of the taxpayer's money is spent yearly for the care of mental patients. Less than $1,000,000 of these funds is de voted to the promotion of re search attemots to discover the sources of trouble." The series was established by John Calvin McNair, class of 1849. Its purpose is to "show the mu tual bearing of science and the ology upon each other . . ."

Republicans 'Add Up Gains After Vote By The Associated Press Republicans happily added up election returns yesterday, re turns that showed large gains for their party in Congress, some stunning defeats for Democratic stalwarts, and a Republican lead in governors voted into office. The Republicans immediately claimed the results showed a com plete repudiation of President Truman's domestic and foreign policies. A prominent Democrat replied Ihii wasn't so at all, that the switch to Republican was due to the recent reverses in Korea. Democrats still held numerical control in the House and Senate. But their margin was so skinny that it looked as if it would be impossible for Mr. Truman to push through any significant part of his "Fair Deal" program in lh next two years. And since many of the win ning Republicans had criticized Mr. Truman's conduct of foreign affairs, it appeared that biparti sanship on international issues also was in for some rocky going. From the Democrats' view point, one of the most displeasing results of the balloting was the approving pats the voters gave such standout Republicans as Senators Taft (Ohio) and Milli kin (Colo.) and Governors Dewey (N. Y.) and Warren (Calif.) ' At the same time, it was thumbs down for such Democrat leaders as Senators Lucas of Illinois. Myers of Pennsylvania, Tydings of Maryland and Thomas of Utah. Mr. Truman spent last night aboard his yacht on the Potomac. He got up even earlier than usual, at 5 a.m., for a look at the re turns. Harold Stassen, University of Pennsylvania . President, and spokesman for the Republicans in their answer to Mr. Truman's political speech in St. Louis, told (See ELECTION, page 4) They said the Russian-made planes tried to lure them over the Yalu River into Manchurian territory. Stephens' wingman, 1st Lt Russel Brown, Pasadena, Cal., shot down one of the Soviet planes .and Stephens damaged the wing of another. The four American jets were strafing the airfield at Sinuiju, at the mouth of the Yalu River, when they were alerted to the presence of enemy aircraft in the area. Stephens and Brown climbed to 20,000 feet, followed by Lt. Ralph N. Giel, Cleveland, O., and Lt. Richard D.
