MOrinet .:Fight a '; ay Into Seoul
T 0 K Y o—American Marines
are driving into the streets of
Seoul, unconfirmed reports from
South Korea disclosed last night.
Marine Commander Lieutenant
General Lemuel G. Shepherd said
his men may get into the city
proper in the next 24 hours. Shep
herd added that it will be at least
a week before Seoul will be se
curely in the hands of the U.S.
Marines fighting in the Seoul
suburb of Yongdungpo, across the
Han River from the capital, have
run into some of the strongest
Red opposition since the Inchon
landing a week ago. After being
thrown back by an apparent fight
to-the-death stand by the enemy
the Marines with the aid of the
U.S. airmen crashed through and
knocked out the main transport
lines leading southward into the
suburb from Seoul.
Truman Veto Expected
WASH INGTON -- President
Truman, according to a high
source on Capital Hill, is expected
to veto the anti-communist bill
today. The communist control bill
which came out of congress with
overwhelming approval, is ex
pected to have enough supporters
to override a presidential veto.
The communist control measure
is designed to tighten up the home
front defenses against subversive
persons and groups. Truman had
opposed urevious editions of this
measure because he felt that they
are unnecessary and dangerous to
American freedoms.
The President yesterrlav won a
nartial victory in an effort to get
Congress to drop a Senate plan
which, he said, might push some
countries into the Soviet sphere.
The President objected to a Sen
ate amendment to the 17 billion
dollar emergenCy defense plan.
The Senate provision would
mean a complete ban on econ
omic aid to any country sending
war potential goods to the Soviet
bloc.

tisement is to attempt to

fusion which we understand

And it won't be many days
before you are able to find
the correct class room. Our
personal advice is that you
should never be without a
pair of scissors with which
to cut the red tape. But we
are getting away from our
point—there is nothing like
being confused when writ
ing about confusion.
Confusion say After you
learn where to eat and sleep
(because it might be a bit
difficult to do that here) and
your way around the cam
pus, discover for yourself
