A major target of the survey will be ferreting out organiza tions no longer active but still on the record. The consensus of Cabinet was that the students should play a bigger role in the probing of campus organizations, since that is the purpose of student govern ment. The announcement that the Artists* Series would present the Modern Jaaz Quartet as part of the Awards Night pro gram oi Spring Week, brought a flurry of discussion on the feasibility of such a plan. Inter-College Council Board Chairman David Epstein objected to the scheduling of the jazz pro gram and the awards presenta tions-cornation on the same eve ning. He cited past incidents of inattention toward the perform ers by the audience, which was there primarily to see the awards presented. Cabinet suggested that Art ists' Series and Spring Week commilfee*members work out a feasible plan for the event.

SEPTEMBER 29. 1959 Khrushchev Visit May Lead To Conference at Summit WASHINGTON (/P) —President Eisenhower said yesterday his secret talks with Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev about Berlin’s future led to enough progress to wipe out many of his objections to a summit conference.

Lions 21-0 Top Keydets, in Stiff Battle Even ole Stonewall Jackson would have been proud of the Keydets from his native Virginia Military Institute for their performance against Penn State Saturday on Beaver Field. Although they lost to the heavily favored Nittany Lions, 21-0, the Keydets gave a good ac-i count of themselves before 19,800.! Playing without' their top bocki and captain, Sam Horner, the 1 boys from Lexington, Va., battled Riverboat Richie Lucas and com pany to a complete standstill for most of the first half. But late in the second period the Riverboat hoisted anchor and the Lions were underway. With the score 0-0 and the ball on the 50, Lucas came, in with .the second unit on the field, and un corked an 18-yard aerial to full back Sam Sobczak on the 32. On the next play Lucas hit the Lions’ leading ground gainer Dick Pae with & 14-yarder and the ball and other allied leaders. The President said that Khrush chev—who once had given the West six months to get out of West Berlin—has now agreed there will be no deadline for East-West negotiations to meet in seeking a peaceful settlement. Eisenhower said Khrushchev has agreed these talks should not be "unnecessarily or unduly extended." He did not explain whether this meant negotiators would have days, weeks or months to talk. “No one is under duress,” Ei senhower said, when asked wheth er Khrushchev promised to ease pressure on the German capital. MOSCOW OP) Nikita Khrushchev, beaming at a hero's welcome home yesterday, said his American trip was very successful. He told the Soviet people President Eisenhower is a man of peace with the back ing of all but a small minority of Americans. The Soviet Premier noted in stances of hostility and com plained again of security meas ures that caused him to threat en in Los Angeles to cut short his tour, but good feeling was the keynoie of his report. “No one is under any kind of threat and, as a matter of fact, he stated emphatically that never had he any intention to give any thing that was to be interpreted as duress or compulsion.” I Eisenhower gave no clue to the kind of Berlin settlement that might be shaping up. Khrushchev in reporting Sun day on his talks said he and Eisenhower found much in com mon in their search for a settle ment of the Berlin crisis. And yesterday, back in Moscow, Khrushchev shouted to loud ap plause at a homecoming rally: "Long live Amencan-S ovi e t friendship!” Eisenhower set off a diplomatic furor by telling newsmen he could not guarantee that any settlement would uphold the previous vows to protect the freedom of West Berliners and to guard allied rights.
