U ________________________________________________________________________________ N FROM ARTS TO X-RAY: Varied Summer Symposia Will Add To Curriculum No Spring Chickens? Conferences and symposia in- cluding more than 20 programs ranging from visual arts surveys to astrophysics studies will supple- ment the Summer Session curric- ulum. Open lectures on linguistic subjects will be held every Tues- day and Thursday in the Rackham Amphitheater. Lecturers will be members of the Linguistic Pro- gram staff. The forums are in con- junction with a concentrated study program offered this summer. AMONG the three symposia of a scientific nature is "Radiation Korean War Began Three YearsAgo (Continued from Page 1) JUST WHEN peace seemed im- minent the UN forces were struck by a "human sea" of 30 Chinese Communist divisions in a new of- fensive that rolled them back 150 miles in a few short weeks. In April, 1951, General MacAr- thur, having successfully launch- ed a counter-offensive, was re- lieved of his command as a result of disagreement with President Truman over strategy and the ob- jectives of the war. He was suc- ceeded by U.S. Eighth Army Com- mander General Matthew B. Ridgeway. PHASE TWO.. .. First truce meeting held July 10 was. the beginning of nearly two years of constant charge, de- mand and stalemate. A deadlock over prisoner repatriation was the major issue. FIGHTING continued in spurts -bitter fighting-with casualties and no progress. Total casualties mounted to an estimated two and a half millions of which 137,000 have been Americans. American dead number 24,000 to date. Finally on June 8 of this year an agreement was drawn up which would pave the way for a cease-fire order. Accord was reached concerning Communist prisoners reluctant to return home. Politically neutral na- tions agreed to participate in the repatriation proceedings. Under the agreement, the pres- ent battle-line was to serve as truce line with a 2.4 neutral zone. A series of political conferences would be held within; three months to iron out any difficulties. PHASE THREE.. .. Exactly a week ago President Rhee in an act of defiance to- ward the United Nations settle- ment displayed his complete dis- approval of the proceedings by ordering the release of the first group of reluctant prisoners. IN A DESPERATE effort to prevent a truce he believed would be harmful to his country, he threatened first to "fight on alone," and finally to "withdraw . forces from the United Na- tions command." This attempt to unify the en- tire Korean peninsula instead of merely insuring that the Com- munist armies keep out of his country has, in the opinion of political experts, immeasurably prolonged the time before peace can be attained. Prof. Fang-Kuei Li To Speak Today Prof. Fang Kuei Li of the Uni- versity of Washington linguistics department will speak on "Chinese Phonology, Old and New" at 7:30 p.m. today in Auditorium B, Angell Hall. Biology" presented by the biolog- ical science division. Participat- ing in this fourth annual sympo- slum will be four lecturers from leading science institutes of the United States. The series lasts from July 6 to 16. Two other symposia in the field of science will begin Mon- day. Related to the one con- cerned with astrophysics will be a detailed study of X-ray diffraction. These are both in the well-known University Mod- ern Physics series. Those interested in survey re- search will be given the opportu- nity to study techniques in this field in a four week course begin- ning July 20. The program will be operated by the Institute for So- cial Research. . *a * HIGH SCHOOL publication staff members will visit the cam- pus for 12 day periods throughout the Summer Session. During this period a workshop will be orga- nized for practical experience in meeting publication problems. The program includesa workshop for advisers to high school publica- tions. A conference slated for July 8 to 10 at Rackham will center around earning opportunities for mature workers. Conducted as a service to the ministry will be the workshop en- titled "Speech and the Preacher" sponsored by the speech depart- ment July 6 and 7. A second con- ference July 20 and 21 will be con- cerned with speech communication in business and industry. * * * "COMPLEX Variables" and "Mathematics on the March" are the subjects of two conferences planned as a service to mathe- matic teachers and researchers in the field. National band conductors will meet for the fifth annual con- ference from July 2 to 24. The five day session is offered by the School of Music to teachers and conductors of music. The architecture college is fea- turing a workshop course on the Visual Arts in School and Society. Public lectures will be given on July 2 and 14 at Rackham.

NO TABUS: Union Announces Limited Summer Session Service Coeds Slate Matty Danies In Summer With social activities planned for five evenings a week the League summer program is calcu- lated to keep interested students busy, according to publicity chair- man, Coleen Campbell, '55.

At 9 p.m., Saturday Al Town- send and his orchestra will provide music for the first in a series of weekend dances, to be held every Saturday except July 4.

Now a graduate student at the University, Townsend formerly played trombone for Gene Krupa and Henry Busse and did part- time arrangement for Krupa's band. First Square Dance session of the semester last Monday, was at- tended by close to 100 people. Call- er John Redd taught the group several schottishes and the Texas Star along with other dances. Redd has many other dances up his sleeve for future sessions, which will be held from 7:30 to 9 p.m. every Monday, Miss Camp- bell promised. The League will also be open, she added for ball room dancing lessons with classes, at 7 p.m. for beginners and 8 p.m. for interme- diates on Wednesday evenings.

FOR THAT HARD-TO-FIND TEXTBOOK try, FO LLETT'S State Street at North 'U' Italians Visit ' Four Italian naval engineers and architects are on campus to study the University's ship designing and testing facilities so they can help fellow Italian shipbuilders increase contributions to their country's de- fense efforts. Of special interest will be the naval tank, where research is done on design of canal and riverboat hulls, because much of Italy's busi- ness is with ships of this kind. 82.50 plus taxes Since 1908 MORRILL'S 314 S.

Although the Union will act only in the capacity of a hotel un- til the fall semester, the cafeteria, Union officials said the front door taboo has been broken fre- quently this summer and "prob- ably nothing will be done about it since there - is no law pro- hibiting them to use the door-j only a tradition and traditions are never followed." Two Professors Elected to ASM Two University professors have been elected to positions in the American Society of Mammalo- gists at their meeting in New York. Prof. William H. Burt of the zoology dept. was elected presi- dent, and Prof. Emmet T. Hooper, also of the zoology dept. was re- elected to the board of directors. Prof. Hooper has just returned from an expedition to Mexico where a study of the region's mammals is underway. On this trip, Hooper placed emphasis on the squirrel in an attempt to show its relation to local species. dining room, and barber shop will be open to the general public.
