AROUND THE COUNTRY
With time running short, 11 top
candidates yesterday shot the
works with a killing pace of per
sonal appearances and radio
television addresses arguing issues
ranging from peace to prosperity,
Korea ' to Communism. Gen.
Dwight D. Eisenhower, Repub
lican presidential candidate, and
Sen. Robert A. Taft of Ohio, a
major supporter, were keeping
the Korean War in the forefront.
Gov. Adlai Stevenson, Eisen
hower's Democratic opponent, and
Pres. Truman, Stevenson's lead
ing backer, were talking of pros
perity for the Little Man, and
predicting a Democratic victory
six days hence.
ABOARD STEVENSON SPEC
IAL Gov. Adlai E. Stevenson
opened his bid yesterday for
Pennsylvania's important bloc of
32 electoral votes by labeling the
Republicans obstructionists in the
fight for social gains. Stevenson
stood bare-handed in a raw wind
that whipped snow flakes around
him as he told thousands at
Scranton that "The Democrats
have proved their concern for the
average man through legislation
such as the minimum wage law."
"This was done in spite of the
Old Guard Republicans," he
added.

NEW YORK Gen. Dwight D.
Eisenhower, pointing a power
house drive at the big voting
centers around New York City,
says a "top secreet document"
on Korea is being used against
him by his political enemies. He
did not identify the. document
other than to describe it as "a
top secret document of the
American Defense Department."
In a radio broadcast he said, "This
morning, there was' a very signi
ficant item in the paper. It was
this: There was quoted a top
secret document of the Ameri
can Defense Department. How it
got there, we will never know,
probably."
HOLLYWOO D Dixie Lee
Crosby, wife of crooner Bing
Crosby and mother of four sons.
was near death as she lay in a
coma yesterday. Her husband and
children were at her bedside,
Larry Crosby, brother of the
world famous Bing, said Mrs.
Crosby's condition was "highly
critical." She has been ill for
several years. Mrs. Crosby, a
singing and dancing star who
gave up her own film career to
raise a family, suffered a relapse
Sunday while recuperating from
a serious operation.
SEOUL United Nations troops,
on the alert1 for another "human
sea" assault on Pinpoint Hill,
forced 1,000 Chinese forming east
of Sniper Ridge to dispense last
night under a deadly rain of ar
tillery fire. The barrage hit the
Communist formation about 7
o'clock, but it was too dark to
tell how many casualties were in
flicted. Allied infantrymen cap
tured Pinpoint Hill yesterday in
an attack that began at dawn
in near-freezing weather. They
reached the crest at 10:30 a.m.
and began herding the Reds
down the northern slopes with
grenades, bavonets and rifle fire.
THROUGHOUT STATE
Fresh forest fires spread across
widely scattered sections of the
Carclinas yesterday, throatonir
thousands of acres of valuable
woodland. Cold winds, which shot
the mercury down to freezing,
fanned the costly blazes and the
weather man could promise no
rain to ease the work of the weary
firefighters. Forest fires, helped
by a. long dry spell, crackled in
several areas yesterday from the
mountains to the coast of both
states and a heavy pall of smoke
reduced visibility.
New Deal
Students got a new deal
offered them yesterday.
Those planning to attend the
Miami game in Coral Gables,
Fla. over Thanksgiving may go
by train at the roundtrip price
of $39.62. This also includes
meals enroule and a bus trip
from Chapel Hill lo and from
the train station.

New Union
Tuesday night the two oldest
extra-curricular organizations on
campus passed resolutions in sup
port of the administration's re
quest for funds to build a new,
larger, more centrally located stu
dent union building.
For the past year a group of
interested students, faculty mem
bers and members of the admin
istration have been working up
the case for a new union build
ing. Last spring it was put into
a formal proposal to the Board
of Trustees and subsequently to
the Advisory Budget Commission,
where the proposal is now being
considered. The Budget Commis
sion will make its recommenda
tions to the State Legislature af
ter the first of the year.
In other action Tuesday night
the Dialectic Senate defeated a
bill calling for all-out war in Ko
rea, after which a resolution was
introduced calling on President
Truman to draft General Dwight
D. Eisenhower and send him to
Korea for high level observation
and supervision. This resolution
was referred , to the Ways and
Means Committee for further
consideration.
The Philanthropic Assembly
sent back to committee a bill call
ing for the disbanding of the Re
publican Party and the acclaim
ing of Adlai Stevenson as presi
dent. Tom Lloyd, conditional Di Sen
ator, was sworn into full mem
bership in the Dialectic Senate.
Bruce Crater was accepted in
to conditional membership in the
Senate.

NO WINDSHIELD WIPER
The British say they've deve
loped a moisture-proof glass for
windshields. A thin transparent
sheet of metal oxide between
two plates of glass does the trick.
The metal oxide conducts elec

With a big weekend such as
Germans, topped off with
Homecoming, the Carolina coed
is giving much thought to her
'wardrobe so she may look her
stylish best.
Featured this year are many
new cotton fabrics such as the
woven cotton "tweed" used
for lightweight suits and dress
es. This fabric has all the ap
pearance of tweed, and com
bines many new colors with the
soft lightness of cotton.
New corduroys, pin wale and
wide wale, plaids and checks
are on campus and in leading
fashion magazines as well. Cor
duroy has gone dressy too with
rhinestone studded date dresses
made of the fabric. These will
be good for those after-the-game
parties.
That all-time favorite velve
teen is a cotton fabric that will
make its appearance at Ger
mans. Its vibrant colors and
soft richness make it flattering
to the wearer.
Whatever the occasion,' cot
ton will be there.

Mars Rocket
Still Makes
Nightly Trip
Sinse her maiden voyage on
October 7, the Morehead Plane
tarium's simulated rocket ship has
made 46 successful round trips to
Mars, the red planet of mystery.
Last weekend nearly 1,500 pas
sengers mentally made the one
hundred million mile flight of ed-
Lucational entertainment, without
mishap.
A light year of distance is com
pressed into an exciting 50-min-ute
program of factual fun.
When on Mars, a highlight of
the performance is the panoramic
view of the "Mars-scape," which
suddenly becomes apparent after
the launching of the sub-rocket
cruiser, which constitutes the en
tire nose of the great SDace ship.
More than 200 running feet of
specially hand-painted scenery
has been installed behind the
huge Planetarium dome to create
this singular effect.
Flights leave the Planetarium
every evening at 8:30 and in the
afternoons on Saturday at 3 and
4 o'clock and on Sundays at 2,
3 and 4 p.m.
The program will continue
through Nov. 10.

Senior Class rings will be on
sale today in the Y Lobby from
