I Weather Forecast: I : Partly Cloudy, Pleasantly Mild VOL. 61, No. 6 Eisenhower To Appear efore U.N. WASHINGTON (JP)—Presi dent Eisenhower has convert ed his appearance before the United Nations today into a 2-pronged diplomatic offen sive. First, Eisenhower sought to beat Khrushchev to the punch, report edly with a revamped version of his open skies inspection plan to forestall sneak nuclear attacks and a proposal to aid the emerg ing nations of Africa. Second, the President arranged to court representatives of 18 Latin American nations at a luncheon, and to meet with other foreign government leaders. The odds were heavily against any meeting of Khrushchev and Eisenhower. This would be a pointed snub to the premier who has been waging a campaign of vilification against the United States and Eisenhower personally since the summit con ference collapsed last May. Announcing Eisenhower's plans, White House press secretary James C. Hagerty said Cuba's Yankee-baiting Prime Minister Fidel Castro and the Dominican Republic's representative were not invited to the Latin American luncheon. It will be at the U.S. mission's headquarters in the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel. By JERRIE MARKOS For the story of old-time customs see page 5 "Customs, customs everywhere and not an extra clink." And then there is the story of an enterprising young .freshman who is out to make a name for himself. He started his University career by piling up an impressive record—a record of eight customs violations, that is. With a lead like 'that he could easily pass the high water mark long before the storm is over. Could this he an indica 'tion of a future BMOC?

While the West has rejected Khrushchev's bid to make this U.N. gathering a giant summit meeting, the session has drawn a heavy concentration of wor 1 d leaders.

Proffitt, director of food 'service, said yesterday. Each year there is nearly the same situation and students who do not have 8 or 11 o'clock classes can help by coming to meals be fore the rush line starts, Proffitt said. Food Service will also be able to help by planning meals l easy to serve on days when it is ' known that the greatest number ;of students will come through 'line, he added. IStudents can facilitate the line imovement by going quickly with ! their trays from the cafeteria to the dining halls. Food Service would like this year to give the students more choices but deci sion making slows up the service and if the lines get too long we wil not be able to do this, Prof fitt said. In the Pollock Dining flails approximately 75 to 81) men will be moved out of Dining Rooms B and C to A and D to even the lines, Proffitt said. If this works out, more may be moved.
