Soviets Agree to Resume
Nuclear Test Ban Talks
MOSCOW (>P) —The Soviet
Union agreed yesterday to re
sume negotiations with the
United States and Britain for
a treaty to ban nuclear weapon
tests, but qualified the agreement
with an implied call for another
uninspected test moratorium like
the one it broke in September.
A Soviet note delivered to the
American and British embassies
accepted the U.S.-British call to
take up the test ban talks Nov.
28 in Geneva.
But the note warned that if
some other power tests nuclear
weapons while the new talks are
going on, the Soviet Union will
be forced “to draw the corre
Good Travel Conditions
Expected Today, Tonight
Partly cloudy skies and chilly temperatures are expected
today as. thousands of University students leave campus to
spend Thanksgiving with their families.

conditions to continue Friday.

weather in Pittsburgh shows most

in the southeastern sections of
the state early Monday has com-
sponding conclusions concerning
nuclear tests."
In Washington, the. United
States ordered its nuclear test
ban negotiators to return to
Geneva in preparation for new
talks. But it ruled out resump
tion of an uncontrolled morator
ium.

cision cautiously and declined to
be drawn into any promise to
participate in a moratorium while
test ban talks are in progress.

referred questioners to Prime
Minister Harold Macmillian's

Walker Thanks Foianini,
But Says 'No' to Dinner
President Eric A. Walker sent a letter to Dennis Foia

;ive assistant to the president,
said.
Walker declined Foianini’s in
vitation, delivered in the name
of the Student Government Asso
ciation, because he has already
invited a group of foreign students
to his home for dinner, Kenworthy
said.
He added that he did not know
the exact number of students who
had been invited. Walker received
the SGA invitation Tuesday eve
ning, he said.
Foianini said last night that
he had not received the official
letter of regret in the mail, but
that Kenworlhy had informed
him of the president's commit
ment in a personal interview
yesterday. .
Foianini would make no con>
mc-nt on the refusal other than
"The point of my invitation ex
presses my feelings pretty well.”
In extending the invitation,
Foianini wrote:
“We would like to have you
(Walker) among us as a testi
mony of the University’s convic
tion that a compact term schedule
is of greater importance than ihe
traditional values of Thanks
giving.
Another invitation, also spon
sored by SGA, will be extended
today to Harold J. Read, chair
man of the University Senate
Committee on Calendar and Class
Schedules, Foianini said.
Dorothy J. Lipp, dean of wom
en, has accepted an invitation to
