(AP)—French Foreign Minis ter Maurice Couve de Mur vile renewed Thursday h i s government's call for a "de cisive initiative" from the United -States to end the "cruel and destructive" war in Vietnam. He suggested in a policy ad dress to the U.N. General As sembly that such an initiative might be an unconditional cessation of the U.S. bomb ing that is "ravaging North Vietnam." "No one would approve of such a decision more than the French," he said, "and first because it would put an "end to the suffering of many Viet namese." But he added that "this in cleedrw ould probably be a first step" to peace negotia tions. He said Hanoi had declared several times since last Jan uary that "discussions could be envisaged" if the bomb ing were halted.

Twenty-four died before it, hit at Brownsville, Tex., and Matamoros, Mexico. Eleven have died in Texas from indirect effects of the huge storm. The Weather Bureau issued a new alert for evacuation between the Rio Grande and ,the levees in the area of Brownsville, and Matamoros, calling for a watch for flooding there. The weather agency earlier said neither city appeared in danger be cause they are protected by the levees. Browrlsville and Matamoros are about 70 river miles downstream from Har lingen, Many of Harlingen's most expen sive homes remained submerged_ and others held varying degrees of flood water.

Canadian Foreign Secretary Paul Martin ,t old the as sembly Wednesday that any efforts to' open negotiations between the two sides were "doomed to failure unless the bombing is stopped." Couve de Murville contend ed that "the only imaginable settlement" in Vietnam would be a return, to the Geneva Agreements of 1954. Evacuation Of U.S This would involve, he said, evacuation of a 1 1 foreign forces and a pledge against their return and a ban on any outside interference in Viet namese affairs in return for a Vietnamese commitment to a policy of strict neutrality. `The provisions, he added, Episcopal Church Welcomes YOU, Eisenhower Chapel • Sunday • • 8:00 a.m. Sun g Eucharist , 8:30 a.m. "Colonial Pastry" Breakfast Lar g e Loun g e Chapel 6:15 p.m. The Holy ComMunion Wednesday • 12:35 p.m. The Holy Communion (Faculty - Staff-- Students Welcome) Episcopal Office 205 ,Chapel 865.3762 . 0000000000000000 000000p000000000c000000000006000000000000000000000 CLASS OF "69" )0000000000000000000000 COUVE DE MURVILL should be embodied, in a treaty to which the great powers and all other coun tries• directly involved would PRESBYTERIAN WORSHIP- SERVICE This Sunday EISENHOWER CHAPEL 9:15 A.M.

LYNDON JOHNSON Mysterious illness Hits 700 at WVU A member of the West Virginia Department of Public Health has been called to help in the investi gation of a mysterious illness which has affected 700 students at West Virginia University in Morgantown. Joan O'Connor, news editor of the Daily Athenaeum, told the Collegian last night that Dr. David Allen is investigating the possibility that stu dents were affected by either food or soft drinks pur chased at a football game Saturday afternoon. - IVI, iss O'Connor said that students began report ing fo the university health center Sunday night, complaining of nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and high fever.. "At first, they just thought it was the flu," she said. "But by Wednesday, the number of 'students who were sick, increased to 700. • / "Alsb," she said, "it has been ,determined that most of those affected did attend the West Virginia- Virginia Military Institute football game Saturday afternoon." She said that although there has been no offical word on the cause of the illness, it is generally be lieved that it was caused by something sold at the game. Dr. Allen is interviewing the ill students, and the Daily Athenaeum is conducting a survey of its own.
