Pentagon Backs Hungarian Move WASHINGTON (UPI) The State Department Saturday de nounced Russian "colonialism" in Hungary and backed the right of the Hungarian people to independence. In a statement issued on the fourth anniversary of the ill-fated 1956 Hungarian revolution, it said: "In an era during which a large and growing number of peoples is being granted national independence, the Hungar ian people remain in bondage to a power which, while it pro claims itself a champion of independence, has in fact estab lished a new colonialism in the areas which it controls." . Ex-American Faces Cuban Guns HAVANA, Cuba (UPI) Maj. William Morgan, a soldier of fortune who lost his American citizenship for joining the Cuban revolt, was charged today with plotting against the Castro regime. He faced death by a firing squad. A presidential palace announcement said Morgan and an other rebel army officer, Maj. Jesus Carreras, were arrested Friday night and accused of counter-revolutionay activities. U.S. Plans Nuclear-Armed NATO WASHINGTON (UPI) The Eisenhower administration hopes to draft a concrete program for giving the North Am erican Treaty Organization its own nuclear force in time to outline it to a NATO meeting in Paris in December, high officials said Saturday. But the far-reaching plan, now being worked out by the state and defense departments and the Atomic Energy Com mission, will necessarily be conditioned on the Republicans winning the Nov. 8 presidential elections.

Joseph Mobutu, charging that the United Nations had tried to "topple me from power," today announced he would fly to New York Tuesday to complain personally at U.N. headquarters about the atti tude of its representatives.

Kennedy called on Vice President Rich ard M. Nixon today to abide by President Eisenhower's own code of "face to face" settlement of differences by agreeing to a fifth television debate on the campaign is sues. Kennedy, in a speech pre pared for delivery during his Missouri stumping tour this morning, said that if Nixon can't find time to debate with him he might "debate" his running mate, Henry Cabot Lodge, Gov. Nelson A. Rocke feller, Sen. Jacob Javits or other GOP leaders with whom he has "differences." Kennedy insited that "there remain vital differences be tween us" and the country is entitled to have them thor oughly aired. He recalled that on Nov. 23, 1953, President Eisenhower said: "Abilene, Kans., had a code and I was raised as a boy to prize that code. It was: Meet anyone face to face with whom you disagree." In this country, if someone dislikes or accuses you, he must come up in front ALLENTOWN, Pa. Vice President Richard M. Nixon charged Saturday night that Sen. John F. Kennedy's pro posal for U.S. support of a new Cuban revolution is a di rect invitation for Russia to intervene militarily and even tually could touch off a third world war. Assailing Kennedy's plan as "the most shockingly reckless proposal ever made in our his tory by a presidential candi date during a campaign," Nix on said in a speech at Muhlen berg College. "This mistake ... should convince many Americans that they could not rest well at night with a man with such a total lack of judgment as commander-in-chief of our armed forces." He said Kennedy's Cuba proposal was part of "a pat tern of conduct" which Nixon said included Kennedy's "sug gestion that President Eisen hower could have apologized to Khrushchev at Paris and that we should surrender the free islands of Quemoy and Matsu."

UNC In Trying Battle As SO Wins First In 4 CAROLINA QUARTERLY: Editor Outlines Policies "Mature voune writers will develop at UNC only when they have a significant chance to be heard by the entire university, stated Richard Rickert, editor of the Carolina Quarterly, com menting on the magazine's edi tcrial policy. He emphasized that his staff is continuously reviewing stu dent writing and making direct invitations to students for their work. Students Urged Students are urged to bring their best writing to the Quar terly office in Graham Memorial Monday evening, at 8 for discus sion with the editors. The deadline for contributions to the first issue of the year is November 7. Rickert stated the need for one more student-written story for the issue. This student-oriented policy resulted in a great increase of student-written fiction and po etry published last year. Articles On Criticism Articles on criticism and con temporary cultures are now the focus of new efforts to recruit student writing. In past issues articles have been contributed largely by seasoned authors. "But now," Rickert asserted, "we want the vigorous and fresh writing of the intelligent student. "We're looking for those writ ers now. "Students should keep in mind that we want articles of immed iate, contemporary significance, on quite recent fiction, poetry, developments in the arts, archi tecture and current events. Wants Satire "We also would like to see some well-written satire in an article or short story on an im portant element of university living.' "The national and interna tional political scene is also ripe for satire. "With intelligent writing, there's no reason why the maga zine can't have some bright spots of outstanding humor. "The Quarterly has achieved a national reputation by insist ing on quality. "As editor, I intend to keep that quality, but to open its possibilities to the best student thinking.

AT HOWELL HALL DEDICATION: Journalists Abound With Advice 'Responsibility' Is Keyword In Dedicatory Ceremonies Responsibility was the keyword in Howell Hall during the Friday . afternoon dedicatory program when the publisher of the Courier-Journal and Louisville Times, Mark Ethridge, spoke of the "Responsibility of the Publisher." Stressing regional problems in relation to the world situa tion, Ethridge declared that the responsible publisher must deal with them. He said responsible publishers must deal with regional problems in their relation to the world. The vast majority of newspapers don't do this he stated. Taking his own region, the South, as an example, he acknowledged integration as one of its present day problems. The full story hasn't been told, according to Ethridge, who agrees with Harry Ashmore that the story of Little Rock hasn't divulged how the moderates and people of good will have been affected. A feeling of embattled martyrdom has led the South into isolation. It has caused a withdrawal from rationalism and the right to freedom, he said. (Continued on Page 3) N. C. High Schoolers Hear UNG Graduate-Georgia Editor "Don't ever get up more than one rabbit at a time," was the advice passed on to North Carolina high school newspaper editors yesterday by Sylvan Myer, UNC alumnus and cur rently editor of the Gainsville, Ga., Daily Times. The occasion was a conference of teenage editors on cam pus to attend the nineteenth annual North Carolina Scholastic Press Institute. "Keep to your major project in the editorial; and don't kid yourselves that people don't read editorials: The people who count are the ones who read editorials," Myer said. Myer, a former Nieman Fellow at Harvard University, told his audience of about 45 that the editorial isn't always a driv ing, scolding writing. "It should not be out of harmony with the rest of the paper. Major editorials set the tone for the Paper," he said. How should the editorial be written? Myer quoted a eorgia minister who once told him how he preached to his G congregation: (Continued on Page 3) average comes down Under this new system, the administration hopes to retain a higher percentage of students in law school after they have been admitted and reduce the number of failures.

The Roosters scored late in the third quarter and added the two point tally to jump ahead of the Tar Heels who never could catch up. Coach Jim Hickey's charges fouffht a trying battle against the fired-up South Carolinians who recorded their first win against three losses. 1-4 Record The Tar Heels are now 1-4, a record just reversed from that which most observers would have predicted for this time in the season.
