Korea.
After a review of the Korean
situation by Gordon McDougall,
YP chairman and leader of the
discussion, Al Lippitt presented a
plan worked out by a group of
interested students and printed
on the editorial page of The Daily,
July 12.
T1is plan called for the with-
drawal of all troops from Korea
and the appointment of a UN
commission composed of the chief
Asiatic countries, including Com-
munist China, to supervise the
cessation of hostilities.
The official Progressive party
stand on Korea was described by
John Sloss.
The discussion was then thrown
open to the 30 students at the
meeting. The Young Democrats
and Young Republicans were not
officially represented at the dis-
cussion, as those groups are not
functioning this summer.

AP Newsfeatures Writer
NEW YORK-(M~-George Ber-
nard Shaw will be 94 years old
today.
GBS (that's what his friends
call him; he hates the name
George and has dropped it) will
pay no attention whatsoever to the
event.
FOLLOWING a pattern estab-
lished a quarter of a century ago
when Shaw birthdays started to be
news, the bearded, irascible Irish
sage will closet himself for most
of the day, refusing telephone calls
and interviews and leaving con-
gratulatory messages unopened.
At some point, however, Shaw
may be glimpsed long enough by
newsmen to snort, in essence, on
the subject of his birthdays:
"Bah, rubbish!"
Once, turning a mere 82, the
millionaire playwright amplified by
complaining wearily: "Why can't
they forget my birthday? I shall
not have a cake with candles on it
nor shall I have a party. I wish
people would stop talking about my
birthday."

The business of the traditional
Shaw birthday interview began in
1926when the world's best-known
vegetarian approached his 70th
birthday. Plans were made for
him to broadcast a speech from a
dinner in the House of Commons.
The broadcast was banned Shaw's
speech was a broadside at Britain's
"Tory rule"-a familiar theme.
* * *
A FEW MONTHS later he won
the 1925 Nobel prize for literature,
receiving it with a typical testy
remark that hewas mystified be-
cause he hadn't written a thing all
year.
On one occasion many years
ago he remarked he couldn't un-
derstand why he hadn't been
hanged for his statements. Years
after that he explained how he
was forever getting away with
sniping at tradition and mores.
He called Christmas a nuisance
and a "horrible carnival." He said
men couldn't write the truth- about
marriage while their wives were
still alive. He called all men vil-
lains at 40; all women, at 30. He
denied he had eaten caviar and
said reports he had taken liver

injections for anemia were "flam-
ing lies." A couple of years later
he admitted the liver shots.
HE INVENTED a 42-letter Eng-
lish alphabet. He declined a title.
He said he was careful never to
say a civil word to the United
States and had defined the 100
I percentAmerican as 99 percent
idiot, "but they adore me . .
He called Hollywood writers
"bellboys." He added a Shaw act
to onetof Shakespeare's plays. He
said telephone operators rated
above actors in diction and pro-
nunciation.
That's a rough sampling of Shaw
opinion through the years Mostly,
he's been against things. Usually
he has been on the unpopular side.
Probably he's serious when he
says he wants to live to be 100-
he seems to fake a great joy in life
and work. It is just possibli he
wrapped up his attitude towards
the world in a non-birthday state-
ment:
"I never speak without giving
offense to a large number of peo-
ple. After all, my business is to
say what other persons leave out."
