U.N. Troops Battle
To Stall Enemy
* Compiled by Dave Cromwell
From the Wires of the Associated Press
Allied troops fought desperately Tuesday to slow the Com
munist tide rolling toward the heart of South Korea and menac
ing the U. S. Eighth Army’s retreat route to the old Pusan beach
head.
Two United Nation’s battalions attacked a Red Korean force
two miles south of battle-wrecked Wonju, road hub abandoned
Monday to the Reds.
An allied regiment counterattacked strong communist forces
six miles southwest of Wonju. Allied artillery slammed shells
into the Reds and fighter-bombers roared down.in close support.
Field dispatches said the fighting still was raging shortly be
fore midnight Tuesday.
General Eisenhower Arrived...
. . . yesterday in Brussels, Belgium, on the second leg of his visit to
Atlantic Pact nations which will provide the international anti-Kremlin
army he is to command.
He flew there from a three-day inspection visit in France, where he
talked with French civil and military authorities and studied the five
nation Brussel’s pact defense headquarters at Fountainebleau which may
form the nucleus of the 12-nation Atlantic defense pact force.
The Oregon House and Senate...
. . . met for only five minutes each yesterday morning. Among the im
portant bills introduced in the two houses were means of providing emer
gency civilian defense funds, to abolish dog racing, to tax amusements
temper cent, and to provide for a one-house legislature.
In the Senate, the Oregon “statesmen” were confronted' with the ultra
important question of whether their secretaries should be allowed to sit
next to them on the Senate chamber’s floor. Three past presidents of the
Senate, Senators Walker, Walsh, and Belton were appointed to com
prise a committee to bring a decision in on this “problem.”
The idea to kick the secretaries off the floor came from Democratic
Senator Mahoney, who said it gives Oregon the reputation of having an
“apron string” legislature. Often the secretaries could be seen knitting
or working on crossword puzzles during the sessions.
While at the same time, the Speaker of the House John Steelhammer,
declared that he did not believe that women should be hired in the legis
lature who had husbands who could support them. Mrs. Steelhammer
was employed by the legislature during the last session!
Two of Hitler's Generals...
... sat down with allied officials today for secret talks on putting uni
formed Germans in the westerrt force of Gen. Dwight Eisenhower, who
led the invasion across the Rhine only five years ago.
The men met in the same room that Neville Chamberlain had vainly
argued with Hitler to avert World War II.
The two German officers are Hans Speidel, once Rommel’s chief of
staff, and Adolph Heusiner, who helped plan the Russian campaign.
47,000 More Enlisted Naval Reservists...
. . . are to be called to active duty during April, May and June. The
revised three-months quota is 32,000 more than the Navy said last month
would be added during the three months.
Classifications to be called up include waves in the three petty officers
categories and male petty officers in some 25 specialties. Enlisted men
in the first three pay grades will also be ordered to duty as seamen, fire
men, airmen, and stewards.
Russia Will Face A Counter-Revolution...
... if she begins an aggressive war, Harold Stassen said today as he
returned from a 34,000 mile trip around the world. He believes that even
the Red Army itself would revolt.
He said that he feels that while there “are very many real dangers of
world war, the prospects for world peace are brighter than at any time
in the past three years.’’
His reasons for so thinking are: 1. The wo'id is awakening to the ex
treme evils of communist imperialism and that awakening is one of the
key things; 2. People everywhere, including the iron curtain countries,
wa^t peace and freedom and the Russian Kremlin faces a counter-revo
lution; 3. America and the other peace-desiring nations are rearming
and thereby filling the vacuum spots of weakness all around the world.
What to Name It...
. . . was the problem facing the house armed services committee yes
terday. “It” being the new air-craft carrier just approved by congress.
It was originally to be named the “United States,” but it has now been
suggested to the committee that it be called the “James Forrestal” after
the late Secretary of Defense.
The new carrier will be the largest in the world. It would be capable
of handling high speed planes and heavy bombers that could deliver the
A-bomb.
It was while Forrestal was Secretary of the Navy that plans were
drawn for the 65,000 ton carrier.
Tuesday's IM Hoop Action
(Continued horn bane imtr)
scored six for the Sig Eps.
Sigma Nu scored 22 points in
both halves of their game with
the Legal Eagles as they trounced
the future lawyers 44-5. Superior
passing and a good share of the re
bounds at both ends of the court
proved to be the margin of victory
for the boys from eleventh street.
Hultzman and Ritchey led the
pointmaking parade for Sigma Nu,
as they scored 11 and 10 points
respectively.
jLs Minturn Romps
‘ In the final game of the day
Minturn hall, led by sk^’scraping
Emery Barnes, romped to a 38-1?
victory over an independent quinl
known as the Jumping Jets. A1
though having an easy time witt
the Jets after the first period
which ended with the Min'urn’!
barely ahead, the vets dc.mer:
lacked lustre and showed signs o:

The Jets lost some of thei:

ended 38-18.

The parental release printed above must be filled out by the par
ents of all blood donors who are 18 or over but who are under 21 years
of age, except for married women. The release must accompany the
pledge card, which is due by Monday. If this is not possible for some
students, then they must have their releases turned In before their
appointment. For this reason, students under 21 should have their
releases signed and turned in as soon as possible.
Preparations Urged
For Student Donation
Of Blood for Korea
With only 12 days left until the
campus donation of blood for
fighting men in Korea on Jan. 22,
students were urged by the Lane
county chapter of the American
Red Cross and by campus Red
Cross President Donna Mary Bren
nan to do the following things as
soon as possible:
1—If under 21 years of age,
and not a married woman, have
the parental release blank filled
out by parents and ready to
turn in with the donor pledge
card if possible. The blank has
been printed in the Emerald for
three days and also appears in
this issue.
3—Turn in pledge cards be
fore the deadline, which is Mon
day. Men’s donor pledge cards
should be turned in to Herb Nill
and women’s cards to Leslie
Tooze at Kappa Alpha Theta.
Faculty cards should be return
ed to Howard Lemons at John
son Hall.
All students who are unable to
have their parents fill out and
sign the release and return it in
time to turn it in with the pledge
card before Monday can still turn
in the release later and be able to
donate blood, IF the release is
turned in before the appointment
on Jan. 22. Such releases must
therefore be filled out immediately
and turned in as soon as possible
before the appointment.
Donor pledge cards were distri
buted to women’s houses Monday,
and will be sent to men’s houses
soon. A booth in the Co-op will be
open starting today for off-campus
students to sign up for the blood
donation drive and to get their
pledge cards.
The booth will be open from 11
a.m. to 5 p.m. today, Thursday,
and Friday, and from 9 a.m. to
12 noon Saturday. Faculty cards
were sent Tuesday.
This is the first blood donation
Theater to Show

“The Bicycle Thief,” Italian
movie sponsored by the Foreign
Movie Club, will be presented at
the Mayflower Theater tonight

drive conducted at the University.
Oregon State Cpllege has had two
previous drives. The quota set for
the University is 350 pints, with
425 appointments to be made to
take care of any rejections and
failures to keep appointments.
Students are remined that any
person who has ever had infec
tious jaundice will definitely not
be accepted, so they should not
sign up. Anyone who has been in
oculated for typhoid or vaccinated
within the last 30 days should al
so not sign up, for they must also
be rejected.
However, the names of any of
these latter persons who do appear
will be taken and kept for later
date, but such persons are definite
ly asked not to sign up, since they
will only increase the rejections
and impair the chances to reach
the 350 pint quota.
The Lane county chapter of the
Red Cross also mentioned that any
person with a cold who has a high
temperature will not be accepted.
The local Red Cross chapter
cautioned donors not to eat fatty
or fried foods within four hours
after their donation.
The blood donation drive, which
is open to all students and facul
ty members who are at least 18
years of age but not yet 60, will
collect whole blood for the wound
ed men in Korea. It will be flown
to Korea by Jan. 27, five days aftei
its collection.

Campus Morals
('Continued from page hvo)
the frustrations in college as
widespread and deep as Prof
Gilbert's statement would imply,
nor of the kind that an early mar
riage would resolve. One must
keep in mind the character struc
ture of the college-level students,
the greater intensity of social
pressures in their case, the more
complex intellectual and nervous
organization.
What is more serious about sex
.on the campus is not so much the
frustrations and suppressions as
. the sense of guilt and the sense of
I self-doubt with which most stu
J dents seem constantly plagued.
Wondering whether they have
done right or wrong, wondering
whether they are storing up ha
voc for themselves psychological
ly, wondering whether they are
popular and whether they are
being talked about in the right
way or the wrong way, trying to
square themselves with the ex
pectations of their families and
their fellow-students and their
own demands on themselves—it
is here that much of the agony
lies.
* *
*
If there is any solution—and a
partial one at best—it must be in
clearer study and knowledge of
the whole problem by all, and
clearer self-knowledge by the in
dividual.
Erich Fromm, in another es
say on the Kinsey volume, comes
close to the truth when he says
that “sexual behavior is not the
cause but the effect of a person’s
character-structure.” On the
same campus I have seen stu
dents whose frantic pursuit of
sexual expression did nothing to
diminish the torments they felt,
and who were left as wretched as
when they started; and others
who did whatever they did—in
cluding petting—out of love and
tenderness, and who left on all
their behavior the undeniable
stamp of a regard for another’s
personality and respect for their
own.

success system).
