Dorm Newspapers
To Be Given Aid
y Committee
The Communications Committee
has begun a drive to assist dormi
tories with efforts to provide their
residents with dorm newspapers.
Several dorms which previously
had not published dorm papers
now have editors and plan to pub
lish within a few weeks.
The committee is helping exist
ing dorm newspapers to publish
more frequently and to improve
their papers. A file of old dorm
newspapers is beir prepared and
numerous source materials such
as joke books and cartoons are
being furnished.
According to Chairman Robin
Britt, the committee hopes to estab
lish a headquarters for the dorm
papers where some of the more
complicated Stylus work in
volved in mineographing can be
done. The headquarters will also
furnish a central location for the
files of the old newspapers and
source materials.
The committee is working
through the IDC and with dorm
presidents. Britt presented the
idea to the IDC in December and
proceeded with the program on
the basis of the interest shown at
that meeting.
Originally the plan called for

day. I'm really looking forward
to this day and to tomorrow morn

he was being "de-briefed" after
his earth-orbiting trip Tuesday,
Glenn was reported "living from
moment to moment" for the meet

his wife, their children, and other
relatives.
He also was reported a little
nervous about ceremonies at the
spaceport where the President was
scheduled to present him with the

National Aeronautics and Space
Administration.
Still more honors are in store
for Glenn, the nation's biggest

ly is nearing perfection at N. C.
Memorial Hospital. Support for
continuing this work will come
from the 1962 Campus Chest, which
is contributing to heart research
for the second year.
Conducting the project is Dr.
Thomas C. Gibson, Assistant Pro
fessor of Medicine and William B
Thornton, Consultant in Engineer
ing for the Medical School.
The Campus Chest grant will
be used to perfect the new tech
nique in two directions: to enable
the patient to tape his heart record
at home and to develop a better
computing system for the informa
tion broadcast by the transmitter.
At present, a person trained in
reading electrocardiograms must
spend a large amount of time
scanning many feet of record tape
to translate the information re
corded. The researchers are work
ing now on a method of decoding
this information mechanically and
providing answers in a simpler
form.
Dr. Gibson is a native of Eng
land and received his medical de
gree in 1946 from Cambridge. He
trained at the London Hospital and
engaged in private practice . in
London before he came to the UNC
Medical School in 1957. His as

against further sabotage Thursday
under a state of emergency proc
lamation. Nearly a score of incendiary
blazes have caused an estimated $1
million in sugar crop damage in
recent weeks. The coalition pro

a roundup of agitators Wednes
day and authorized their deporta

claimed was an unholy conspiracy
of former members of the Tru jil

Bonnelly in a radio speech
Wednesday night said the procla

was aimed at halting not only
growing sabotage- but increasingly
frequent riots and leftist-sparked
disorders.
Five leftist leaders detained for
questioning Wednesday still were

to permit the 1 o c a 1 or foreign

-Tsarapkin made it clear the ne
gotiations at the general disarma

as they were during the three-
year nuclear test ban conferences
which ended last Jan. 29.
- He said the Soviets stand firm
ly on their Nov. 28 suggestion for
an uncontrolled moratorium on
nuclear tests. The West has re
jected this and is certain to re
ject it once more when and if the
nuclear test question goes before
the 18-nation conference.
In announcing Thursday's shift,
Tsarapkin said the Soviets meet
ing "since it is clear that the West
has no interest in continuing the
nuclear discussions either of.
ficially or unofficially."
Tsarapkin told a news confer
ence in his villa overlooking Lake
Geneva that the' latest decision
had been taken because "there is
nothing more to be gained, offi

Kremlin Admits
Abel Worked As
Spy For Soviets
MOSCOW (UPI) The Kremlin
publicly acknowledged for the
first time Thursday the existence
of Col. Rudolf Abel, the convicted
Soviet spy who was exchanged
for U2 pilot Francis Gary Powers
nearly two weeks ago.
The government newspaper Iz
vestia printed a letter, revealing
to the Russian public that Abel
had been released and returned to
Soviet authorities on Feb. 10.
The letter, from Abel's wife
Helen and daughter, Lydia, pub
licly thanked Premier Nikita S.
Khrushchev for arranging the re
lease of the colonel.
It ended years of official Soviet
silence on the case of Abel, who
had been sentenced to 30 years'
imprisonment in the United States
following his convictin on
charges of sending American nu
clear and other defense secrets to
Moscow while posing as a Brooklyn
photographer.
Publication of the letter was
seen here as a Soviet attempt to
offset criticism abroad and news
leaking through to the Russian
people that their , government had
concealed "details of the exchange.
Abel's wife and daughter, in
their letter to Khrushchev, said
Abel had been "innocently ar
rested" and "unlawfully commit
ted." The letter did not specify that
Abel had been exchanged for
Powers. Nor did it mention the
simultaneous release of American
student Frederick Pryor, who had
been held in East Germany.
Powers had been sentenced to
10 years in prison for spying after
his high-flying plane crashed deep
inside the Soviet Union on May 1,
1960.
At the time of his release, the
government said it acted with the
aim of improving Soviet-Ameri
can relations. But no mention was
made of the exchange for Abel
at that time nor was his name
mentioned in the press until Thurs
day.
The letter from Abel's wife and
daughter, dated Feb. 19, gave no
clue to Abel's present where
abouts. There was no indication
from where the letter was writ
ten. It gave the impression that
Abel's liberation was strictly a
Soviet initiative.

ROBERT F. KENNEDY
RFK Pledges
Full Defense
Of W. Berlin
BERLIN (UPI) Atty. Gen.
Robert F. Kennedy arrived Thurs
day with a new presidential
pledge to defend West Berlin a
gainst the Russians. He re
ceived a tumultuous welcome
from West Berliners while Com
munists reacted with a decisive
barrage of red flags and rockets.
Kennedy, in one of four speech
es delivered Thursday, told a
cheering throng of 150,000 to 160,
000 in freezing, snow-covered city
hall square that the United States
would regard an attack on West
Berlin as an attack on New York,
Chicago, London or Paris.
The Communists tried to dis
rupt the rally by sending up four
rockets which looked like bal
loons. They exploded overhead
and unfurled four-foot-square red
flags which drifted down by par
achute. The crowd booed and Ken
nedy taunted: "The Communists
send out balloons but they will not
let their people out."
Veteran observers said Thurs
day's welcome was one of the
warmest ever given a visitor
here. Police estimated another
150,000 to 160,000 lined the road
from the airport to the square.
There were cries of "welcome"
and shouts of "Bob" nd "Ethel"
for Kennedy and his wife.
The attorney general read a
message from his brother, the
President, that promised Ameri
can solidarity with (Berlin and
peace and freedom for the world.
Italian President Installs
Leftist Premier And Cabinet
ROME (UPI) President Gron
chi Thursday swore in Premier
Amintore Fanfani and a left-of-center
cabinet which will rule with
support from the Socialists in a
political era of high hopes and
possible dangers for the West.
Fanfani, the Christian Demo
cratic "Little Professor," ended a
20-day-old government crisis by
heading a coalition cabinet that
includes three Social Democrats
and two Republicans. To survive,
it must have parliamentary sup
port of the Socialists.
The pro-Western government
Italy's 23rd since World War II,
virtually is certain to receive a
strong parliamentary vote of con
fidence before March 3. Pietro
Nonni's left-wing Socialists, who
have been in the opposition group
with the Communists for 15 years,
have pledged to support the new
government.
The naturalist Socialists have not
broken all links with the power
ful Italian Communist party, thus
causing: strong right-wing doubts
about Italy's future relations with
its NATO allies.
Fanfani, i n announcing the
"center-left ' program, declared
Italy will continue its firm anti
Communist foreign policy and its
loyalty to 1 NATO and the Euro
pean integration movement.

Sorority girls no longer can be
required to join either or any cam
pus political party by their sor
orities. This resolution was made public
yesterday by the Panhellenic Coun
cil. The resolution also stated that
no sorority could place party mem
bership dues on a sorority bill
and that it could not place a fine
for non-attendance at any political
party function. It said also that
there will be no promising of votes
prior to the balloting process. "Our
members will vote as individuals,"
the resolution stated, "and we will
do all in our power to discourage
the practice of block voting among
other groups."
The Council recommended that
both political parties put more em
phasis on pre-nomination meetings.
The resolution suggested that sor
ority pledges be required to attend
both the Student Party's and Uni
versity Party's preliminary meet
ings, and afterwards be allowed
to make their own choice.
"I am in complete agreement
with the Panhellenic resolution,"
UP Chairman Bill Criswell said yes
terday. "I think this will help
clear up the political apathy on
this campus."
"I also believe this resolution
will help to end the misconception
that the University Party belongs
to the fraternities and sororities."
He said he thought the clause
suggesting that pledges be requir
ed to attend one meeting of each
party would be an incentive to the
parties to improve their platforms.
"Bloc voting can no longer be
counted on to provide party mem
bers," he stated. "The parties
must now work to attract their
members."
SP Chairman Jimmy Weeks also
expressed complete agreement
with the resolution. "I do not think
however, that this resolution will
affect Spring elections a great
deal because of the lack of time
before elections."
Criswell said, however that this
resolution will definitely help the
UP this spring despite the time
element. "I think the candidates
will be able to emphasize the new
convention system in their individ
ual campaigns," he stated.
Council President Janice Haley
emphasized the suggestion that
sorority pledges be required to
attend meetings of both parties
because she believes that "pledges
may become interested in campus
politics if they have a chance to
find out what politics is like."
receive any basic foreign policy
concessions in return for the vital
support from his socialists in par
liament. But he and his top aides
have declared their conviction
that the "center-left" formula is
the first step on the road to dem
ocratic socialism for Italy.
Eventually, the Socialists want
at leat a British-type "flexibility"
for Italy within NATO. They are
not happy about U.S. missile bas
es on Italian territory. The strong
pro-Communist wing of the Social
ists seeks an even more pro
nounced "lean to the left."
