"He feels that if students like you," Mrs. Montoya added, "you'll be a success anywhere." Montoya, the first flamenco guitarist to experiment with con cert solos, demonstrated his talent to UNC students last night in Memorial Hall. "When I play, I don't see the people. I see only my guitar," Montoya said in a rich Spanish ac cent. "I play what I feel. Classi cal guitar is like one, two, three. You can't improvise on it." "Not As Mechanical" Mrs. Montoya explained that he ' h neutralist nations with members of the various UN missions in New York.

He doesn't read music, he improvises from his mind." "Flamenco is for all," he said. "When you play for a dance, you make more noise, more rhythm. For a concert you play softer," he added, gesturing with his long, sensitive fingers. Montoya, who is presently on a North American tour before head ing for Europe and his native Spain, has played flamenco all over the world. "When people ask me where he has played," Mrs. Montoya said, "I tell them 'ask me where he hasn't?

"It was in 1934 during Stalin's peak." Mr. Montoya said he saw only the hotel and the theatre. "He had a shadow," she added. "Russian and Spanish music are at odds," she said, "but he was well received." Montoya, who said his favorite country other than Spain was the U.S., expressed amazement at the interest in the flamenco music in the United Stales.

Former President Eisenhower said Tuesday the Kennedy administration made the decision to sell 130 jet fighters to Yugoslavia. But the White House replied that this was merely a continuation of Eisenhower administration policy. Pierre Salinger, President Kennedy's press secretary, said in Wash ington that more than 500 U. S. military aircraft were given or sold to Yugoslavia during the years Eisenhower was in office. Eisenhower was asked about his role in the controversial transac tion because of Washington reports Monday that he had given Ken nedy a specific explanation of the sale just before turning over office last January. The former President told a news conference here: "I did not brief President Kennedy." He emphasized the word "not." Nikita Boasts Of USSR Output Increase MOSCOW Premier Nikita Khrushchev said Tuesday agricultural output in the Soviet Union had increased 43 per cent in the past five years but he acknowledged the country still had shortages of some products, particularly meat. Khrushchev told the 22nd Communist Congress that measures adopted by the party early in 1961 to increase output of farm pro ducts have not had their "full impact" but he predicted that agricul tural output would show a "steep rise" before long. . The premier said the growth rate of agriculture was still lower than that of industrial production and still docs not meet the growing requirements of the population.

Michelmore, 23, who referred to the "primitive living conditions" in this Negro re public on a postcard to a friend back home. Miss Michelmore, of Foxboro, Mass., has apologized and offered to resign. But officials involved adopted a "go slow'.' policy on the question of her resignation and return to the United States. Miss Michelmore's . postcard .was intercepted, reproduced and dis tributed among Nigerian students at the university in Ibadan where she was in training for service as a school teacher here. Demand Corps' Ouster The students demonstrated and demanded the expulsion of the en tire 40-member Peace Corps con tingent. Reports from Ibadan Tuesday said the students who circulated the copies will be "disciplined." There was no elaboration. A government spokesman said that while it was "perfectly right that the students . . . should be incensed and indignant, the. views expressed are not shared by other members of the Peace Corps.'r "The, friendly and cordial rela tions between Nigeria . and the U.S.A:," he said, "must not be jeouardized or affected by the foolish writings .of one-irrespon sible student." ' Appeals To Students The university's Student Chris tian Movement alsd urged the stu dent-body "not to be hostile" to Peace Corps members '.who are studying : for volunteer services throughout Nigeria. "Miss Michelmore must not be taken as the voice "of America," the movement said. "It is the sin of an individual person, and is a symptom of racial sin which dic tates the attitude of the white races of Ihe world toward the black races." Newspapers also called for calm and restraint. . Air Cadet Rooney Makes Solo Flight Cadet Capt. 'Michael J. Roonev.

K Offers To Erase Treaty Deadline (United Press International) MOSCOW Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev offered Tuesday to withdraw his year-end deadline for a peace treaty with East Germany on condition the Allies showed "readiness" to negotiate .Then he said Russia would explode a 50 megaton bomb the biggest in history On Oct. 30 or 31. Khrushchev told 4,799 delegates to the 22nd Commun ist Party Congress in a six hour and 20 minute Kremlin speech that President Kennedy and other Western leaders in prelimi nary talks appeared ready to stration members will attend from Carolina. Recently the Corps has been a subject of considerable controversy in Nigeria, West Africa, where 1, 000 (Nigerian college students de manded that Peace Corpsmen be deported. The trouble resulted from an "insulting" letter written by a female Corps member. In addition to Harriss, the fol lowing persons from UNC will at tend the conference: Anne Queen, YWCA director; Prof. James Blackman, representing the facul ty; Jim Wagner, chairman of the campus Peace Corps group; and Both Warren and Jarrell are not member. The conference will bring togeth er "leaders of business, farm, la bor, civic, professional and educa tional groups who have indicated an interest in the Peace Corps,' said Dean of Students Charles Hen derson. White House BegsKIirush Hold Bomb WASHINGTON (UPI) The White House Tuesday night appealed to Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev not to go through with his an nounced plan to explode a 50 megaton nuclear bomb late this month. A White House statement said the United States has had the technical know-how since 1957 to produce bombs in the 50 to 100 megaton range equal to 50 mil lion to 100 million tons of TNT. Exploding such a bomb by the Soviet Union "could only serve some unconfessed political pur pose," the statements said. "We call upon the Soviet Union to reconsider this decision, if in fact it has been made," the state ments said. Khrushchev told the 22nd Communist Party Congress in Moscow Tuesday that Russia would conclude its current test scries wit ha 50 megaton explo sion. The White House said people throughout the world would join the United States in asking Rus sia not to go ahead with such a test. Testing the giant nuclear weapon would add "a mass of additional radioactive fallout to that wihch has been unleashed in recent weeks," the statement said. A 50 megaton detonation would be the largest known man-made explosion in history and would mean that the current Russian test series would dump more radio active fallout on mankind than any previous series. "We know about high-yield weapons," the White House said. "But we also know that such weapons arc not essential to our military needs."

But he repeated his demands for a "free demilitarized West Ber lin." Khrushchev said the Soviet Union would end its nuclear test series at the end of the month by exploding a 50-megaton bomb equal to 50 million tons of TNT and 2,500 times bigger than the one that incinerated Hiroshima. He said Russia had perfected a 100-megaton bomb but "God grant that we never have to explode it because we might then blow in our windows." Reaction Cautiously Optimistic The first world reaction . to Khrushchev's statements on Berlin and Germany was one of extreme ly cautious optimism. The United States withheld comment. British Foreign Secretary Lord Home said he was encouraged. West Germany said he had said the same thing before. France observed tartly that Khrushchev now apparently prefers negotiations in order to ob tain his objectives. Khrushchev made only passing reference to Soviet space achieve ments but said Russia had an ar senal of intercontonental missiles, anti-aircraft rockets for the land, sea and air forces, and a fleet of nuclear submarines armed with ballistic and homing rockets. He repeated his demand for a three-man "troika" secretariat to run the United Nations, insisted that Communist China be admitted with two Germanics East and West to repair the U.N. machin ery he said had grown rusty in the cold war years and was operat ing fitfully. He denounced the Albanian Communist party, bringing the So viet feud with Albania into the open for the first time, and said it was trying to draw back into the Stalin era. He dismissed Yugo slavia as having been led into a bog of revisionism by its leaders. Neither country was represented at this congress. 16 Carolina Teachers Work Abroad Recent graduates of Carolina's School of Education are teaching in places as far removed as West Germany and Okinawa this year.
