But right now the big job is to
hold auditions for the casting of
the 33rd annual musical comedy.
Tryouts will be held from 3-5
p.m. and 7-9 p.m. Wednesday and
3-5 p.m. Thursday, in the Union
Opera offices, Herb Harrington,
'53, Opera general chairman an-
nounced yesterday.
MEN TO FILL all positions are

and specialty numbers are wanted
for the cast.

Dem Victory
Seen by Wyatt
In November
SPRINGFIELD, Ill -(/P) - Gov.
Adlai E. Stevenson's campaign
manager yesterday predicted a
landslide victory for the Demo-
cratic presidential nominee in the
Nov. 4 election.
"But we are still running a com-
pletely straight campaign and ex-
pect to right up to election," said
the Stevenson manager, Wilson
W. Wyatt.
* * *
WYATT'S rosy forecast was the
strongest victory claim so far from
the top echelon of the Stevenson
camp. Specifically, he said the
Gov. Stevenson will speak at
10:30 p.m. today over CBS net-
work.
Democrats expect to carry such
key states as New York, Pennsyl-
vania, California, Michigan, Illi-
nois,'and Ohio.
Asked at a news conference
whether there were any states
he doesn't look for Stevenson to
carry, Wyatt replied "we must
frankly admit there are two or
three states on which we have
some doubts."
He grinned and added that he
hadenot expressed any optimism
t about Maine and Vermont-the
only two states the late President
Franklin D. Roosevelt failed to
carry in his 1936 landslide victory.

and promotions are also urged to
come to the Opera offices today.
In this department, women are
eligible to participate.
Fred Evans, New York chore-
ographer, will again come to the
University to direct the final stages
of the production. It was largely
due to Evan's able direction that
the show was successful last year.
STEEPED IN tradition gained
from a colorful past of 32 previous
productions, this year's musical
comedy may add another song to
its list of smash hits like; "When
Night Falls Dear," "I'll Ne'er For-
get My College Days," "The Friar's
Song" and "Men of the Maize and
Blue," which have become part of
campus tradition.
After appearing in Ann Arbor
Dec. 10, 11 and 12 the musical
troupe will begin its seven city
tour of Michigan, Illinois and
Ohio. They plan to hit Chicago,
Flint, Lansing, Detroit, Toledo,
Cleveland and Buffalo.
This is the first time since 1929
that the tour will be made during
Christmas vacation and although
the specific dates of playing each
city have not been announced the
tour starts Dec. 27 and will con-
tinue through Jan. 3.
To those traveling with the
Opera the trip offers excitement
and adventure. All players ex-
penses are.paid for by the Opera
and the local alumni of each town
played throw parties for the musi-
cal troubadors after every per-
formance.

tinued, "but noWno country stands
between us and Communist agres-
sion, as first Europe and then Eng-
land alone did in the past. We can-
not afford to tear down collective
security by letting' our internal
economy crumble."
DURING a question and answer
period which followed he said that
he did not know which Flair or New
Deal reforms the GOP would aban-
don to lead the country into de-
pression.
He further asserted that "if
the GOP had been In power dur-
ing the past few years, there
would be many more countries
behind the Iron Curtain in Eu-
rope and in the East."
Hitting at "the man who seems
to dominate the Republican par-
ty," Sen. Robert Taft of Ohio,
Harriman claimed, "If we'd fol-
lowed Taft's policies regarding the
Atlantic Pact and Korea, we would
have followed exactly the line the
Communists wanted us to follow."
GOP LEADERSHIP got its share
of lashing from Harriman. He said
that he "could not understand how
Eisenhower has undertaken a cam-
paign of smear and falsehood" and
further claimed that "Eisenhower
is saying a great many things
which just are not true."
He cited. the Republican presi-
dential candidate's quotation out
of context from one of Acheson's
speeches which threw unfavor-
able light upon the Secretary of
State.
He criticized Eisenhower's sug-
gestion to withdraw American
troops from the front line in Ko-
rea as "irresponsible," and said
that one-half of the line already
was being guarded by Korean
troops.
"We are standing on the line of
victory in Korea," he. maintained.
"The war was a grave miscalcula-
tion on Stalin's part, and we must
continue to stand there until he
will make peace on our terms."

Upholds Foreign Moves;
Hits Ike's 'Falsehoods'
By DIANE DECKER
Mutual Security Administrator Averell Harriman yesterday praised
the foreign and domestic policies of the Truman administrationand
emphasized that a changeover to GOP leadership now could be
disastrous on both counts.
Speaking to nearly 400 people in the Union ballroom, the unsuc-
cessful contender of the Democratic nomination, claimed, "I am un-
willing to leave the country's future to the piecemeal planning of
business. If we turn over our economy to the Republicans, they will
again take us down the boom-or-bust road.

men opened a smashing new at-
tack at dawn today on the Korean
Central Front 17 miles east of
White Horse Mountain under a
blazing artillery and tank bar-
rage, front reports said.
The attack is believed the heavi-
est Allied assault since Heart-
break Ridge, one year ago. Ob-
servers reported the attack north
of Kumhwa was directed against
"Triangle Hill," a Communist po-
sition in the old Iron Triangle
area.
INITIAL reports were sketchy.
An officer reporting from a divi-
sion command post said the Allied
big guns, mortars and tanks un-
leashed "terrifie" fire on the Chi-
nese.
At White Horse Mountain vic-
torious South Korean troops cut
down Red suicide squad attack-
ers, then pounded the Reds' last
foothold on that bloody hill
mass.
Chinese soldiers were stopped
short in four assaults on the crest
of White Horse during the night.
South Koreans counterattacked at
dawn.

FIGHTING raged into its eighth

inflicted a staggering defeat on

Corps, regarded as one of the Red

Estimates of Red casualties ran
as high as 10,000 killed and
wounded. Probably three Chinese
divisions, numbering 23,006, were
crippled in the week-long battle.

Eighth Army commander who has
