Korea Talks
Hit Snag on
Soviet Issue
MUNSAN, Korea, Saturday,
March I—(AP)—Korean armis
tice negotiations reached their
most critical impasse in seven
months Friday when a high-level
United Nations command deci
sion barring Russia as a neutral
truce inspector was delivered to
the Communists.
Angrily the Communists de
manded that the Allies with
draw their statement and ac
cused the UN command of "an
unreasonable, arbitrary and aloof
attitude." ..
UN negotiators had informed
the Reds that "under no circum
stances will there be a change in
the decisions." The rejection of
Russia was called absolutely
"final and irrevocable."
The Allies als o announced
there was no possibility they
would abandon their stand
against forcing prisoners to re
turn to the Communist side if
they did not want to go back.
In this unyielding frame of
mind, Allied negotiators prepared
to go' to Panmtinjom once more
today for a staff officers' session.

uate manager of athletics; Joseph
Bedenk, head baseball coach, and
possibly Rip Engle and Elmer
Gross, head football and basket
ball coaches respectively.
The purpose of these speakers
is to give students a chance to be
come better acquainted with the
sports, either in participation or
appreciation as spectators. Gen
eral techniques and a few tricks
of each game will be discussed
with the students. Emphasis is
placed on the team sports because
they are most difficult for par
ticipants and spectators to under
stand.
During the latter class period
of each week, students will see
movies about health and recrea
tion. Last week, students 'saw
"There Is No Substitute," a Red
Cross film about .blood donors
and the processing of blood before
it is used for a transfusion. Fu
ture movies are "Playtown USA"
and "Leaders for Leisure."
