' FRIDAY, MAY 1, 1953 SIX PAGES TODAY nop Model UN Assembly Notes: Soviet Says Jgreernen$ Reached With Iranian The Soviet delegation to the United Nations Model Assembly an nounced yesterday that an agreement had been reached with Iran over the distribution of Iranian oil. Fred Crawford, chairman of the Russian delegation, said that Russia will buy 40 per cent of the annual . , ' nicians for the development of oil resources, and support the govern ment. At the suggestion of Ray Long, the Iranian "representative, the caviar supply from the Caspian Sea will continue to be controlled under the present arrangement. An unnamed, but unimpeachable source, close to the Iranian tinder box situation, said the success of this agreement depends on the repeal of the present UN plan. The plan, which has Great Brit ain in control of the oil with a third party arbitrating, "will be fought bitterly," Crawford told re porters yesterday. He attacked the West by say ing, "We are absolutely pledged to break the western capitalistic countries eeconomic domination of the eastern countries." "Great Britain has tried to sub jugate the people of Iran," he added. "Russia is interested only in the oil. It is only by their un favorable balance of power that the western countries have been able to impose such measures on the people of the East." The Russian delegation also charged that the United States and i president Baxter Miller, ."f A. T 'i " . 1 A.

Russia has hinted re cently that they may attempt to get a seat for Red China in the UN. Gorham Takes Oath For Top Campus Post Bob Gorham took office last night with a pledge and some pol icy principles. "I have some pretty definite ideas about campus politics here at Carolina," said the UP president to the student government banquet at Lenoir Hall. "I realize that they must exist as a means of promot ing good student government, but student government must also exist as a means of promoting good campus politics." Gorham said the "solution to our problem" is that we "must use common sense in all our dealings." The student government banquet marked the beginning of terms for many and the end of terms for oth ers. Vice-president Jim McLeod re ceived the traditional gavel before yielding nis seat to new vice- Mi AH IS Wi i 1 r pCm Lai - I ; - It - I. , . " - , s , " ' s. , v , -L. - -' 1 j- .

He added that by doing this "we can main-r tain a high level in student gov-, ernment and politics."

PANMUNJOM The Allies warned the Communists yesterday they might take a short cut through the snarled prisoner exchange problem by simply releasing 32, 000 North Koreans who don't want to go home. This would follow a pattern created by the Reds them selves. The Allies also told the Communists to nominate a non Asian country as neutral caretak er for 48,000 Communist prisoners who don't want to go home, and made it clear the Allies would dis cuss little else until that's done. TOKYO American war prison ers refusing to make Communist broadcasts were put in three-foot-high wire cages where they had to crouch like animals, a liberated soldier said yesterday. Some of the soldiers gained release from the torture and humiliation by saying they had seen the error of their ways. One man is reported to have .spent six months in one of the cages.

Student government leaders indicated that action would be taken : immediately against the offenders. Also they worked out plans to prevent such incidents from hap pening again. As stude'nt government clamped down on the affair, Cobb Dormi tory, origin of the riot, viewed the damages incurred during the fra cas. Several students' rooms were soaked as a result of a water battle there, and halls were cover ed with water. The riot, called a "panty raid" by some or "just a lot of guys raising cane" by others, brought out the entire Chapel Hill police force. "Police said yesterday, how ever, that no arrests were made. "We don't want - trouble if we can help it. But this sort of non sense must stop," one officer said. The mob attempted to overturn one police car after officers grab bed a student. Gene Cook, Bill Acker and student body vice president Baxter Miller stood be side the car trying to keep stu dents from turning it over. Close to a thousand yelling stu dents came to the girls' dormitor ies shortly before midnight. The incident started with a water bat tle involving only a few students, Cobb residents said yesterday. Considerable soaking took place after the riot when students re turned to the dorm at about one in . the morning, it was - learned also yesterday. 1 J A ' i i . m .-.....;.,....,A. it v' i J Graduation Plans Listed By Chancellor MEN OF C BATTERY, 867th Field Artillery Bn, remove the barrel from this giant 280-mm cannon prior to loading on a flatcar at Fort Sill, Okla.

"No, can't say that we have,' a reporter answered. "Well," the caller said, "ours went off during the storm. It came back on after the storm and I tried to cut it off but the pic ture won't go away. It's haunting me." The crowd, obviously composed of as many onlookers as rioters, came up from Cobb to Mclver. After yelling outside that dormi tory for a half hour, the group headed to Carr, then to Smith. A number of the mob veiled. Dr. Francis P.
