Debaters Reach
Team Semi-finals
Members of the College Men's
debate squad were , defeated in
the semi-finals of the team divis
ion of the Boston university de
bate tourney last week-end. More
than 50 college teams competed.
In the tournament each team
entry took part in a preliminary
six rounds, alternately defending
the affirmative and negative po
sitions of this year's national
inter-collegiate debate question,
"Resolved: That the non-commu
nist nations should form a new
international organization."
Marlin Brenner and David
Lewis, representing Penn State
tourney, won four of their pre
liminary six rounds in order to
qualify for the semi-finals.
They defeated New York uni
versity, the University of Ver
mont, the Massachusetts institute
of technology, and Providence
college, but Tufts college and
Brooklyn college won decisions
over them .
After th e preliminary six
cunds, the four teams which
qualified for the semi-finals were
Notre Dame, Yale, the University
of Pennsylvania and Penn State.
Penn State was defeated by Penn,
which lost in the finals to Notre
Dame, defending champions of
the tournament.
Robert Alderdice of the College
squad represented Penn State in
the extemporaneous speaking di
vision of the meet. He was elimi
nated in the preliminary bouts.
J. F. O'Brien, professor of pub
be speaking and coach of the
squad, accompanied the team
members to Boston.

Nasrollah Entezam, Iran, Pres

Parallel Reported Crossed I
Official reports from Korea, la
ter contradicted, said a South
Korean force had crossed the par
allel again.
Prime Minister Attlee told the
House of Commons that Gen.
Douglas MacArthur, U.N. Corn
mander in Korea, should not send
troops across the old border un
til there has been "full consulta
tion with the United Nations."
Some U.N. delegates have said
MacArthur has enough authority
under existing U.N. resolutions to
pursue the Communitsts into
North Korea—if the U.N. forces
can do so. But others have said
that the crossing of the 38th
parallel last fall by the U.N. sol
diers brought Red China into the
Korean conflict. They favor hav
ing the armies stop in the vicin
ity of the parallel in an effort to
establish an atmosphere mor e
favorable for peace.
Red China Called Aggressor
The resolution creating th e
good offices committee also
branded Red China an aggressor
in Korea and set up a 14-man
committee to study how the U.N.
could punish her for aggression.
But many delegates indicated
they were pinning hopes on the
good offices committee before
considering punishments.
Communist China attacked the
Assembly resolution and made it
plain it would have nothing to
do with the three-man group.
The General Assembly will
meet tomorrow at 3 p.m. Before
it will be a report from the pol
itical committee that Russian res
olutions hitting at the United
States were rejected in the com
mittee.
One resolution charged the U.S.
with aggression against Formosa
and the other asked the U.N. to
stop American planes from bomb
ing Chinese territory.
