Pledge Not to
Invade China
NEW YORK-(P)-The United
States and Britain gave solemn as-
surancos yesterday that United
Nations itces will not cross the
Korean border into Communist
China or the Soviet Union.
These pledges were made as
several influential delegates sug-
gested privately that the Presi-
dent of the Fifth General Assem-
bly, Nasrollah° Entezarp, sound a
Call for the North Koreans to cease
hostilities. If Entezam consents,
this is expected to be made im-
Wediately after passage of the
right-bower Korean peace plan to-
day
Warren R Austin, United States,
tad Kenneth Younger, Britain,
spoke for the eight-nation plan in
the, final stages of the Assembly
debate.
YOUNGER TOLD the Assembly
the UN- had taken a historic de-
eision in June to resist aggression
by force.
He said if anyone outside the
Assembly-for instance Commu-
nist China - feared that UN
forces might carry hostilities on
beyond Korea or remain in Ko-
rea longer than the UN, objec-
tives demanded, ."I give them
my solemn assurance . . . that
their fears have no foundation."
Austin endorsed the British
pledge in his speech. He said also
the quicker Korea is permitted to
live its own life without foreign
Interference, the better.
THE EIGHT-NATION plan was
approved by the Assembly's po-
litical committee. By a vote of 47
to 7, more than enough to over-
come the two-thirds vote barrier
In the Assembly.
The plan calls for a reorganized
* UN commission on Korea to con-
duct elections and take necessary
steps for setting up a unified, in-
dependent Korean government.
UN forces will remain in Korea
long enough for the Commission
to carry out its assignment. The
plan also calls for immediate steps
for rehabilitating the country.

Old-time Staffers Meet
As, Daily Hits 60th. Year

The Daily's past is showing.
Alumni who remember when the
Daily was five columns wide and
reportsed only local news began to
drift into the Student Publica-
tions Building last night to help
celebrate their old paper's 60th
anniversary.
* * *
PRESENT staff members re-
garded them with curiosity and
paused from their reunion prep-
arations to ask: "When were you
here?" This question launched a
flow of memories about the Daily
staffs of yore.
Many of the alumni had never
seen the Publications Building
before and exclaimed that days
State Phone
Strike Looms
DETROIT - -(R) - A state-
wide strike of the Michigan Bell
Telephone Co. was threatened yes-
terday for Nov. 6.
The CIO Communications
Workers of America said its 16,00
members would walk out at ex-
changes in 104 cities and villages
unless a contract dispute is settled
in the next month.
The strike threat followed union
rejection of a company offer
which would have provided raises
of up to $5 a week. Herbert F.
Lange, Michigan Bell vice-presi-
dent, said the offer was "very fair
to employes."

One former Daily business man-
ager recalled moving the press

stairs, where they had -a chance
to view the Daily's $300,000 shop.
Other alumni busied them-
selves hunting up their names in
the files of old Dailies on dis-
play in the Ensian office.
Letters from alumni unable to
attend the affair have been posted
for them to read.
THEaREUNION, which com-
memorates 60 years of continuous
publication, a record among col-
lege newspapers, officially gets
underway this morning with an
open house at the Publications
Building.
While coffee and cigarettes
are served, aalumni will have a
chance to revive memories and
explore the building with their
present-day successors who will
act as guides.
Though most of the alumni will
attend the Dartmouth game, the
highlight of the program will come
this evening when more than 110
alumni and current staff members
gather in the Union for the re-
union banquet. -

The South Korean Capital Divi-
sion was reported to have occu-
pied the villages of Yongdae and
Inje in the rugged mountains east
of Hwachon.

IT WAS REPORTED that all
three divisions were advancing
against light opposition.
A cloak of military secrecy
was wrapped around the re-
grouping movements of most UN
forces-but a spokesman for
Gen. MacArthur said that this
did not mean necessarily that
the big push was imminent.
There were many indications
that the remnants of the Red
army would make a last ditch
stand. Supply convoys have been
reported rolling into North Korea
from Manchuria. One was re-
ported heading eastward toward
Wonsan. Other supply caravans
were spotted on roads leading
south from the Communist capital
of Pyongyang toward the 38th
parallel boundary.
- * * *
ALLIED PLANES blasted these
convoys day and night as supply
lines on both coasts were being
bombarded by American, British,
Australian, Canadian and French
warships which were operating in
the dangerously mined waters.
Meanwhile, American Marines
and the U. S. Seventh Division
continued advances north from
Uijongbu, captured Red commu-
nications hub 12 miles north of
Seoul. The American units in
this sector were about 15 miles
south of the border and out of
contact with the enemy which
has scampered across the border
back into North Korea.
General MacArthur's head-
quarters in Tokyo announced that
the North Koreans had suffered
200,000 casualties, including 40,-
000 men. captured, since their
June 25 invasion of the South
Korean Republic.

By PAUL BRENTLINGER
Daily City Editor
Michigan editors last night
heard the president of the Ameri-
can Society of Newspaper Editors
sharply criticize modern news-
papers for their "carelessness, in-
difference and lack of initiative."
Dwight Young, editor and pub-
lisher of the Dayton Journal-
Herald, expressed this view at a
banquet held by the University
Press Club of Michigan, now hold-
Press Club
Hears Panel
Doctors Discuss
Medical Progress
"The atomic age has given a
feeling of insecurity to many
children that necessitates closer
bonds between the members of
the family," Dr. Ralph Rabino-
vitch, professor of psychiatry, said
yesterday.
Dr. Rabinovitch was a member
of a panel which discussed "Ad-
vances in Medical Science" yes-
terday in Rackham Amphitheatre
before members of the University
Press Club. The panel discussion
was part of the three-day pro-
gram comprising the 33rd annual
meeting of the Press Club.
Dr. Rabinovitch claimed that 80
per cent of the juvenile delin-
quents could be rehabilitated if
we had the proper facilities.
"Much of the work in this field
is being held up because of lack of
funds," he said.
In a discussion of the uses of
antihistamines, Dr. John Sheldon
noted that "as far as we know, a
University faculty member was the
first person in the world to take
an antihistamine substance."
Dr. Sheldon, professor of in-
ternal medicine, said that the an-
tihistamine effect on the common
cold was only to relieve some of

ing its 33rd annual convention
here.
s " s
YOUNG described the mainte-
nance of "an efficient, intelligent
and hard-hitting editorial staff"
as the toughest problem facing
present day editors. He suggested
a careful, periodic check of staff
member's merits as a means of
meeting this problem.
The Dayton . editor . blamed
such things as excessive con-
cern over a 40-hour week an(I
overtime pay for the flaws of
today's newspapers. He contrast-
ed today's reporters with the old
timer who wanted only the "op-.
portunity to' demonstrate to the
boss and to himself that he had
what it took to succeed."
A firm believer in personal jour-
nalism, Young disapproved of
those papers which frown on any
expression of personality by mem-
bers of their own staffs. "Yet these
same papers will carry such per-
sonalized columns as those writ-
ten by Pegler, Winchell and Pear-
son without batting an eyelash,"
he said.
PUTTING his views into prac-
tice, Young himself writes a col-
umn three times a week for the
Journal-Herald. Although his pa-
per is owned by a former Demo-
cratic governor of Ohio, Young de-
clared that his column "has a slant
that is Republican because I am a
Republican."
An expert on Ohio political
affairs, Young was asked before
the banquet about Republican
Sen. Robert Taft's chances for
re-election.
"The election will be very close
but I believe that Taft is going
to gain strength from now on," he
said.
AFTER YOUNG'S SPEECH,
Press Club members presented a
citation to President Alexander
Ruthven, in an expression of their
"affection and respect." Because
President Ruthven will begin his
retirement furlough July 1, he
made his last official Press Club
banquet appearance last night.

An expected breather might turn
into a major gridiron battle for
Michigan's Wolverines this after-
noon when they seek the scalps
of the Dartmouth Indians and
their first victory of the 1950 sea-
son.
Some 75,000 fans, including a
host of high school bands and stu-
dents, are expected to witness the
tussle, the first between the two
teams. Proceedings in the Sta-
dium will begin at 2:00 p.m., with
the weather expected to be cloudy
and warmer.
FOR THE invading Indians it's
the big game of the season and
they go into the fray with little to
lose and a lot of prestige to pick
up if they can knock the perenial
kingpins of the Big Ten.
For Michigan the contest is.
a "must." After,their relatively
poor showing against Michigan
State they are out to make
amends and begin living up to
their high pre-season ranking.
They must, however, do it with-
out their offensive star, Charlie
.Ortmann. The versatile Wolver-
ine tailback is definitely outof
today's game, and his absence
could conceivably make the out-
come much closer.
* *
THE EASTERNERS boast of a
terrific passing attack featuring
their quarterback, Johnny Clay-
ton, and the game could turn into
an aerial duel between him and
Michigan's Bill Putich.
Clayton has been one of the
brightest stars in Dartmouth's
long.gridiron history. He was
fifth in the nation last year
Last week against Holy Cross
he had 12 of 21 for 105 yards.
Included were his 20th and 21st
touchdown passes of his college
career. Along with him, are three
other experienced backfield per-
formers.
TWO OF these are from Michi-
gan, Ed Isbey, a wingback from
Grosse Point, and Bob Tyler, a left
half from Niles. At fullback Coach
Tuss McLaughry has Bill Roberts,
the leading ground gainer in the
Ivy League last season.
In the Wolverine camp Oos-
terbaan expressed the belief that
he would string along with the
same backfield combination that
played most of the State game.
This will mean that the Wol-
verines will probably continue
operating more from the "T" for-
mation to make full use of Putich's
passing. There is also a possibility
