WASHINGTON (P) - Eighteen
American students who defied a
State Department travel ban to
visit Red China have refused to
hand over thei~r passports to
American Embassy officials.
Authorities who disclosed this
yesterday said embassy officials re-
quested the passports in order to
stamp them valid for return only
to the. United States.
Sixteen of theestudents were
contacted at the Moscow airport,
these informants said, but all re-
fused to hand over their passports,
even after an /explanation was
given them.-
Two others were located in Ran-
goon, Burma, by American Em-
bassy officials. These students also
spurned the request to hand over
the passports.
State Department offlpials said
that even though the students
have refused to hand over their
passports, the documents are auto-
matically valid only for return to
the United States.
Foreign governments will be
notified of this; if necessary, they
said, in order to make certain all
return home promptly.
Once they reach'American terri-
tory, the passports will be picked
up in line with previsious decisions.
'U Physicist
Comparisons
A 1erica's rather tardy space
missile was contrasted unfavor-
ably with Russia's by Prof. Rich-
ard Sands of the Physics depart-
ment last night.
Appearing on WCBN's "The
Third Programme" at 8 p.m.,
Prof. Sands declared that the
Russians have made some notable
advances toward the solution of
the main problem in getting rock-
ets into the air - that is, the
question of propulsion.
He explained that it requires
thousands of times more energy
to send up a 180-pound object,
such as the Soviet 'sputnik', than
it would to raise the United
States' 20-30 pound artificial
moon.
. The advantages, he continued,
are also greater. The 'sputnik' can
carry much more optical equip-
ment than the smaller American
model, thereby providing the So-
viets with more of the- informa-
tion they seek.
Radio Signals
Aain .Heard
From 'Moon'
WASHINGTON ()-Radio sig-
nals from the Russian earth satel-
lite began coming in again late
last night after being silenced for
about six hours.
The United States Naval Re-
search Laboratory said the signals
which faded at 4 p.m., EDT, began
coming in strong 'at 10 p.m. and
were still being heard after mid-
night.
The laboratory said the signals
were the same kind of beeps that
had fascinated scientists and ra-
dio listeners since the baby moon
began whizzing around the earth
in outer space last Friday.

The Union will recommend that

back to the Student Government
Council.'
The recommendation will be
made by Union executive vice-
president' Fred Wilton, '58, at the
Wednesday, Oct. 15 meeting of
the SGC.
Wilton said that it was the
opirion of both he and the other'
Union student officers, president
Donald Young, '58, and adininis-
trative vice-president Duane Le-
Moreaux, '58E ,that it was against
Union policy to pay student per-
sonnel.'
The officers said they felt that
the SBX could not be run suc-
cessfully without paying person-
nel.
During the two years in which
the SBX was handled by the Un-
ion, the SBX manager was paid.
Young said he thought that, in
order to nake the SBX a success,
it would be necessary to pay all
the personnel of the bookstore. He
said that the work of the SBX
was primarily clerical and not,
suitable for an unpaid extracur-
ricular activity.
The' SBX in recent years has
only done one-half of one per
cent of the total sales of text-
books, according to Wilton.

Hanks,'56, assistant to the state
GOP chairman.
Sen. Knowland will be intro-
duced by Sen. Potter, according
to YR president Davey Bray, '60.
Knowland to, Come Monday
Knowland, who has recently
announced his candidacy for the
California governorship and has
been mentioned as a, presidential
candidate in 1960, will arrive in
Ann Arbor at 4 p.m. Monday. He
will hold a press conference' in
the Student Publications Building
at 4:30 p.m.
Tickets for the rally, which

the YR's before the rally.
A reception for the senator will
be held following the rally and
be open to the public.
After spending the night at the

Knowland, who has not yet an-
nounced the title of his speech,
was born and raised in California.
He started his political career in
1933 when he was elected to the
Calfiornia State Assembly.

In 1938 he was named the Re-
publican National Committeeman'
from California, and in 1940 he
was elected a member of the ex-
ecutive committee of that body..
He later became its chairman.

ator served as an enlisted man
and later as an officer.,

appointed by. Governor Earl War-
ren of California to fill the sena-
torial vacancy created by the death
of Sen. Hiram Johnson.

can floor leader in the Senate, suc-
ceeding the late Sen. Robert Taft

nearly as large a crowd as the one
which featured former governor
Thomas E. Dewey of New York
just over a year ago. The Dewey
rally was also held in Hill Audi-
torium.

MOSCOW (R)-Nikita Khrush-'
chev said yesterday manned war-
planes are no match for Russia's
intercontinental ballistic missile.
"The age of bombers is over.
"They might as well put bomb-
ers and fighters in the museum,"
he commented, citing Soviet scien-
tific achievements.
Britons Hear
"Our intercontinental ballistic
rocket shows that it is no good

chines against missiles."
The Communist party chief's
words were reported by two Brit-
ish membersof Parliament who
talked with him 80 minutes.
They quoted Khrushchev as say-
ing "it is dangerous" for the
United States to take the view it
is dealing with a peasant country.
Planes Now Obsolete
The British MPS, Conservatives
Cyril Osborne and Capt. Henry
Kerby, said Khrushchev told them
ICBM is "only one of the many
things we are doing."
Asserting this missile has made
warplanes obsolete, Khrushchev
said:
"This all points to the fact we
have even more things up our
sleeves. You can't send human
flesh and blood to fight things like
that."
No Comment on U.S. Missiles
Osborne, who visited the United
States two months ago, told Khru-
shchev the United States has
rockets capable of hitting a base-
ball field from 3,000 miles. The
Communist boss made no comment
on that.

last weekend from his vacation
near Yalta, added his own words

Holds Talks
On .Rockets .
WASHINGTON Cam) - President
Dwight D. Eisenhower held two
hurriedly scheduled conferences
with civilian experts on missiles
and satellites yesterday.
The President and seven aides
met for an hour in the morning
with four government scientists.
Late in the day President
Eisenhower again sought sien-
tific counsel on the problems
faced by the United estates in its
race to unravel the mysteries of
outer space.
He met for half an hour with
Dr. Detlev W. Bronk, president of
the National Academy of Sci-
ences.
James C. Hagerty, White House
press 'secretary, would say little
except that the meetings dealt
with Russia's satellite launching
and United States plans to follow
suit.
He said he would prefer to let
President Eisenhower discuss the
matter himself at his regular
news conference today.
In reply to a question, Hagerty
said that so far as he knows Pres-
ident Eisenhower received no in-
formation that would lead to a
speedup in this country's satellite
program.
SGC To Talk

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (A')-Some five criminal cases growing out
of last month's integration disorders at Central, High School were
postponed yesterday until late November.
"Stay away from the school," Municipal Judge Harry Robinson
cautioned five defendants before him Tuesday. All the cases involve
such charges as disturbing the peace, unlawful assembly and resisting
arrest.
- Delay Granted
Robinson, an appointee of Gov. Orval Faubus, granted a delay in
the five cases at the request of defense lawyers. He set hearings for
Nov. 26 and 27 and said he would
do the same as other defendants
come before him.

Lectures and forums sponsored by student organizations are now
in the tentative planning stage.
Proposed programs are being considered for scheduling through-

In comparison with last year and the Sigma Kappa open forum,
the trend in lecture and forum programs seems to be toward political
talks and discussions, with further emphasis on religion.
