Among other things, State would like to atone for its poor TV showings of last sea son when its only losses were before the magic eye.

Penn State SDX Offers Resolution Against Regulation By TONY FOGLIO ---: -City Editor Special to The Daily Collegian Norfolk, Va. A resolution opposing the Federal Communi cations Commission attempt to regulate the amount of adver tising carried on . broadcasting stations will be- presented -today to the Sigma Delta Chi national pretty typist, told with an em barrassed smile of her ordeal in the custody of the secret police last Friday, only a few hours before the outbreak of the coup that destroyed Diem. Confined with Girls She said she was taken from a cell-like room where she was confined with six other girls and six men.. “They stripped me, tied me over a bench,,choked me with whter and a towel and beat me until I was unconscious,” she said. A Buddhist employed at the British Embassy, Miss Dong said that was her treatment when she denied charges that she was a Communist ana that she had served as a courier for Buddhist documents smuggled to foreign correspondents, the United , Nations fact-finding mission and the U.S. Informa tion Agency. More Threats She said the guards let her dress and rejoin other prison ers at the camp, in a woods about 12 miles outside Saigon, only after warning her she would be tortured again in the afternoon. But the sound of guns and warplanes intervened. The government announced the state of martial law im posed with the coup has ended throughout South Viet Nam. A curfew order and censorship of news dispatches were lifted on Thursday. Reliable sources said Tran Van Khiern, a younger brother of the widowed former first lady Mrs. Ngo Dinh Nhu, is; under arrest in'Saigon. He hadi only recently accepted a high political security post in Diem’s administration. A grenade exploded at the foot of a Saigon bridge near an army checkpoint Thursday night and slightly injured two soldiers. University Enrolls 35,000 in Fall The University reported a total enrollment of 35,945 for the fall term yesterday. Included in the total are 25.543 students enrolled for resident and non-resident credit work, an incerase of nearly 2,000 over the 23,584-of a year ago, Robert G.

The resolution will be submit ted by the Penn State chapter of the national journalistic society. The draft of the resolution specifies that regulation of broadcast advertising “would give the FCC the right to dic tate to a broadcast station the manner imwhich it may arrange its programs.” First Step “Such a-policy would consti tute a first step toward censor ship in contravention of the First Amendment and in violation of Section 326 of the Communica tions Act,” the resolution reads. The section, known as the anti censorship section of the Com munications Act, prohibits the FCC from exercising any con trol other than allocating fre quencies or channels. The resolution was drawn up by Stuart Chamberlain, SDX member, and Tony Foglio, SDX vice president, following a speech Thursday by veteran CBS newcaster Walter Cronkite. Criticizes FCC In his speech Cronkite criti cized the FCC for the mediocrity of American broadcasting. He charged that FCC regula tions stifle editorializing by tele vision and radio broadcast sta tions. Chamberlain and Foglio will submit the resolution with chap ter president Stephen Monheimer to the national convention busi ness session this morning. Omens Favorable Informal conversations with both professional and student convention leaders indicate that the resolution will be adopted by the convention. Theodore Kopp, president-elect of the society, said yesterday that the resolu tions stands a good chance of gaining the support of the 600- member convention. The resolution will first go to the resolution committee, chaired by Alfred-Balk. Taishoff said that if the reso lution can pass Balk’s committee there is a “good chance” for its adoption. Convention leaders expressed surprise and gratification that an undergraduate chapter would take the initiative by presenting such a resolution to the national body.- West Convoys Enter Berlin BERLIN (AP) - The three Western powers sent convoys along the disputed highway to Berlin yesterday to test Soviet intentions, and all got through without trouble. Lt. Ivan Scott Lewis, 24, offi cer commanding a British con voy from the Prince of Whales’ own regiment, said on arrival in West Berlin: “It was noticeable that the Russian attitude was much easier.” Soviet Premier Khrushchev warned this week that the three Western powers must respect what he called Soviet control orocedures on the autobahn from West Germany to Berlin. | He ' predicted there would be -more holdups along the 110-mile i highway unless these Soviet i rules of the road are resDecfed. The British convoy of eight vehicles and 43 men was the last to reach Berlin. First to cross from West:Germany with a U.S. convoy of six vehicles end eight men. It was foOowed by a French convoy of 10 vehi cles and 47 men. ... UNIVERSITY PARK, PA., SATURDAY MORNING, .NOVEMBER ?, .1963:, Fate of Request For ETV Here Remains Uncertain The fate of the request to operate Channel 3 from a Clear field County location for educa tional purposes, filed this sum mer by the University, remained undecided yesterday. John Kushman, administrative assistant to Federal Communica tions Commission Chairman Wil liam Henry, said in a telephone interview that a decision is now likely before the month ends. It had been announced earlier that a decision might be reached at, an executive session of the commission' Oct. 28. Kushman said that meeting was cancelled because ,of the chairman’s con flicting commitments. The meeting has been re scheduled for the week of Nov. 17. Drop-in Question To be decided by the commis sion before a ruling can be made on the University’s request is this question: Should an addi tional VHF channel be “dropped in" at Johnstown? If the commission votes in the affirmative, plans for the ETV facility could be shackled. The University has selected a prob able location for a transmitter and is known to be considering the outlines of a program sched ule. There are several rulings the commission could hand down: •No “drop-in” could be al lowed. This was the decision reached when the question was last considered, several months ago. This would clear the way for probable approval of the University’s request. • A channel could be “dropped-in.” If this were the de cision of the commission, it would then have to vote whether such a station would be Chan nel 3 or Channel 8. A decision to add Channel 8 to the approved frequencies would still leave the possibility the University might win its long fight to provide edu cational television programming on a VHF channel in the central Pennsylvania area. (An esti mate 500,000. homes in 22 coun ties could' be" reached, from' the proposed Clearfield County loca tion.) Should the commission decide to add Channel 3 at Johnstown, there is a possibility the Univer sity could again go into the courts, challenging the ruling. Such a step was taken previously but failed. In the event all alternatives were exhausted, the University could ask permission to operate UHF Channel 69 for educational purposes.' This channel has been reserved for such purposes for a number of years. Reduction of 847 Forces To Take Place WASHINGTON (JP) The United States announced yes terday a cutback of ngarly 20 per cent in its 847 nuclear bomber force stationed in Eu rope. Tire action may be followed by some reductions in fighter squadrons in other U.S. air units in that area. The Defense Department said 19 of the aging six-jet 847 s will be brought back-from Britain by July 1, leaving 80 of the planes in Britain and Spain at least for the time be ing.. At the same time, 22 propel ler-driven KBSO tanker refuel ing planes will be retired from service in England. Two of four bases used by the Strategic Air Command in Britain will be returned to the Royal Air Force. They are Fairford in Gloucestershire, and Greenham. Common in Berkshire. About 2,650 American Air Force men are affected, the Pentagon said. There are about 25,000 U.S. military men in Britain along with about 35,000 of their dependents. No Less Power The action will not mean any reduction in U.S. nuclear strik ing power covering Europe, the Defense Department said. According to the Pentagon, the 847 reduction was made possible by a rapid increase in the number of U.S. Polaris missile-firing submarine ' and intercontinental ballistic mis siles. The Polaris can be fired from the safety of the ocean depths, and' ICBMs, with a range of more than 6,000 miles, can strike targets from the United States. Neither is dependent on advance bases vulnerable to Communist attack. Experimental Theatre To Hold Tryouts Tues. Tryouts will be held from 7 to 9 p.m. Tuesday in the Little Theatre, Old Main basement, for parts in two one-act plays by Tennessee Williams. The one-acts are being pro duced by the Experimental. The atre under the direction of the atre arts graduate-students Jack Shaheen and Richard Davis. The play will be presented the first Monday-in December. . FOR A BETTER PENN The VHF facility would be come' the central Pennsylvania link in the proposed Common wealth Educational Network. The network, initially envisioned as having five stations, would bring educational television to all but the most isolated homes in the Commonwealth. Channel Reserved .. Its establishment was speeded last summer when the FCC re served the required channels for educational purposes. Chan nel 3 in Clearfield County was included in this action. But be fore it can begin functioning, permission must be obtained to construct and operate a trans mitter. It is this permission the University awaits. Under legislation approved this year, the University expects to receive part—up to s3oo,ooo—of the funds required to put a sta tion on the air. Both federal and state-monies are involved. Allocations of available funds is being held up by the lack of final word from the FCC. Ist License Approved in Wheat Sale WASHINGTON (£>) A U.S. - Soviet -deadlock over terms for the sale of surplus American wheat was broken last night when the govern ment put it up to American grain merchants to make their own deals. The Americans lost no time in bidding for the $5OO million worth of Soviet bloc business, and the first sale was signaled when the Commerce Depart ment granted a license for the wheat to Communist Hungary. In Minneapolis, Cargill Inc. revealed that it had received this initial license. A spokesman said the deal involved about 3.7 million bushels of soft winter wheat valued at $6.5 million, minus transportation charges. The company said the transac tion was within the confines of the government agreement, namely that at least 50 per cent of the shipments would move in American vessels, according to their availability. First ship ments are expected to go for ward late this month. The announcement was made shortly after it was revealed that the United States and Rus sia had reached agreement on a framework for negotiations for the sale of four million tons of wheat to Russia and her Eu ropean satellites. Undersecretary of Commerce Franklin D. Roosevelt Jr. said the dealer who obtained the li cense certified that one-half of the grain will be carried in American ships. The deal with Hungary was a 57.6-million transaction, in cluding the cost of delivery. The arrangement between the United States and the Soviet Union provided that the actual price of the wheat and shipping costs would be determined in negotiations between U.S. grain dealers and a Russian grain purchasing team. There were strong indications that the Russians would work out agreements with the private American grain dealers on the actual price and other terms. ACommerce Department spokesman said no applications for shipment of wheat to Russia were pending but he said at least one grain dealer already had started negotiations with Russian representatives. light Peace On Campus Penn State and the Peace Corps, old friends since the latter’s are together once again.

NGO DINH NHU Mme Nhu Claims No Extra Funds LOS ANGELES(£>)—Mrs. Ngo Dinh Nhu spoke out yesterday for the first time on the subject of her per sonal finances,, and denied she has funds-abroad. “They are all liars,” she told The Associated Press, “those people who say I have a villa and money, outside Viet Nam.” The former first-lady of-South Viet Nhm, in-seclusion at a pri vate home here since the coup that overthrew the regime head ed by her brother-in-law and husband and cost their lives as well, spoke to a reporter by telephone;/,,,, “All that I have is in Viet Nam—my home at Dalat that I was preparing as a nice place to retire to.” A report from Washington on Thursday quoted a “qualified! source close to’-’ the Nhu family as’-'sayi'ng-'shens.Vaiclev'er-'birs inesswoman ~ with ample re sources in other countries, in cluding a villa on the French Riviera. “The story that I have prop erty abroad is an invention of Nam's Embassy in Washing ton.” She said she was referring to Ngo To Dat, former first sec retary of the embassy, who re signed along with her ambassa dor father, Tran Van Chuong, last August in protest over treatment of Buddhists by the regime of President Ngo Dinh Diem. As to where she will get mon ey to support herself and her four children, Mrs. Nhu re plied: “I do not know. I shall see when I talk to my brothers in-law Ngo Dinh Luyen, former Vietnamese ambassador to Great Britain, and Thuc.” The latter is Archbishop Pierre Mar tin Ngo Dinh Thuc, now caring for her three younger children in Rome.

Describing as serious t! autobahn highway connecting Berlin with West Germany, Rusk expressed belief that So viet Premier Khrushchev shares this view, ‘ In his first news conference since Aug. 16, Rusk criticized Congress for its deep cuts in foreign aid and suggested that! the tendency “to legislate for eign policy” denies the Presi dent the flexibility he needs to protect U.S. interests. Viet Nam Coup On the recent coup d’etat in South Viet Nam, Rusk said that during the last period of the regime of the late President Ngo Dinh Diem there was a “growing gap between the gov ernment and the people.” The United States hopes that the country’s new leaders will consolidate their efforts and “get on with the job” of fight ing communism, he said. Discussing the recent Berlin crisis, Rusk conceded that "the incidents, in which American army convoys were held up on the autobahn, sometimes look artificial because they involve jonly questions of procedure. But that’s not the real issue, he added’. “The point is not whether a particular tailgate is lowered,” he explained, referring to a Soviet request that the Ameri cans lower the tailgate of the vehicles to allow a head .count aT.trgops. .. ... “The point is freedom of ac cess to West Berlin.” Access Fundamental That access, he said, is utterly fundamental,” and warned that Soviet insistence upon changing control proce dures on the highway “could be converted into a power to interrupt access to Berlin.” Rusk conceded he has no ready explanation for the Ber lin incident. Discussing Viet Nam, he re jected Communist North Viet namese overtures aimed at “neutralizing South Viet Nam” and said he suspects that what the Communists really want is to let North Viet Nam remain Communist while bringing South Viet Nam into the bloc. “To negotiate on far-reach ing changes in South Viet Nam without far-reaching changes in North Viet Nam seems to be not in the cards,” Rusk de clared. Negotiations Indicated Reliable U.S. sources have reported indications that the late Ngo Dinh Nhu, brother and chief adviser of the late President Diem, had been ne gotiating with North Viet Nam Communists on a neutraliza-. tion plan. He was reported working through Polish mem bers of the International Con trol Commission in Saigon. • On congressional action in slashing foreign aid Rusk’ ar gued that, “The large and dan gerous questions are still in front of us. There is no detente relaxtion. This is no time to quit, there is too much unfin ished business ahead of us.” He said this country is spend ing $5O billion a year on de fense and, “I'do not see why we can’t spend 10 per cent of that, if necessary, to get the job done without war.” Corps Officials To Hunt Talent Turkish villages. Boughton said he spoke last week with the Turkish Ministry of Edu cation, which has offered to hire each of the teachers from the government’s own money, if the teachers choose to stay and teach in the Mid-Eastern nation.

FIVE CENTS ;he recent incidents on the Diplomats Find Roles Demanding The role of the American ambassador is becoming more difficult each .year. He is subjected to greater pressures and greater de mands as- a result of the expansion of United States ac tivities abroad, the- growth of new international agencies and the increase in the number-.of new countries. This was the consensus of the more than 60 ambassadors, both active and retired, as well as career foreign service officers who ended a three-day closed conference here yesterday. The meeting centered on dis cussions of the role of the Ameri can ambassador in a time of rapid change. Chairman States Role Thorsten V. Kalijarvi, profes sor of international and public affairs, who served' as confer ence chairman, said the group concluded that the role of the American ambassador should re main the same—that of being “Mr. U. S. A. abroad,” and- of coordinating and directing all U. ,S. activities abroad. -iAlthougtr-the'ambassadorsTec ognized the increasing pressures, they agreed that the length of service of a U. S. ambassador should be longer in the country he is assigned. ' The characteristics for select ing an ambassador. should re main the same high qualifica : tions and the ability to deal with others. Kalijarvi said the consensus was that' the calibre, of Ameri can ambassadors today is as high as it has ever been in our history Th le group of ambassadors also agreed that the wife of a U. S. ambassador has a "very real role to play” and that in con sidering the qualifications of an ambassador, the qualifications of his wife and family should also be taken into account.. Untapped Reservoir What use should be made of the retired or former ambas sador? According to Kalijarvi, the ambassadors' agreed that while efforts are being made by the present administration to make more use of former ambassa dors,, there is a“great reservoir of knowledge and experience available from former ambassa dors that is going untapped.” This “reservoir” could and should be used more effectively: Kalijarvi, himself a former ambassador to El Salvador, said the meeting is- believed to. be the largest gathering'of such of ficials since the Congress of Vienna in 1814. He estimated that nearly 1,500 years of Ameri can diplomatic service was rep resented at the gathering. Among the participants, was a group of 34 American ambassa dors representing 35 foreign countries who made the 200-mile trip here from Washington, Di C., by bus. merous classes, residence hall areas, fraternities and .voca tional organizations through out the week..
