That was the general conclusion after asking a sample of students "What do you think of the Associated Press wire news printed daily in the Emerald?" It seems that most students like to have the news there, even though they don't always read it. They just want it handy in case they do find time. Jack Young junior in business "I hardly ever read it. I think it's a good thing to have the wire news, but I just never seem to get around to reading it. Ueklde Burgess sophomore in education -"I certainly think it keeps students up on world acti vities. I don't usually have time to read the Oregonian, and this column keeps one briefed on what s going on." Patty Kemnierer freshman in liberal arts "Well. I just skip over it. I hear enough about the world over the radio. There are undoubtedly people who do read the wire news, so I wouldn t ad vocate disbanding it.” Sandra Snodgi'ann sopnornoi * | in art education -"I’m sorry. I never read it. It's a very good idea to have it printed, however. Many students don't read other news papers and this is their only source, of world information. I prefer to read other daily papers for world news.” Boh Hawkins senior in business _“I don't even read it. to tell you the truth! They have the same thing on the front page of the Oregonian." Crox Uelwll junior in architec ture “I think it's probably more accurate than our own campus re porting. X read it whenever I get up in time." Margaret Madsen junior in art education—"I think it s wonderful for getting a bird's eye view. It's good for just hit-and-miss looking when you don't have time for read ing the whole article."

Now recovering from a heart condition suffered during the final week of fall term, Schumacher, who has been on the Oregon facul ty since 1928, plans to resume all classes in the spring. “I’m getting along fine,” he said when questioned Tuesday. “The doctor seems satisfied with my progress.” Schumacher will instruct classes in American governments and a seminar on political parties spring term.

The allied commander indicated that "if and when" allied troops reach the border, he would give consideration to any “co Kent political reasons against the crossing.” The I’ritish are strong in their opposition to the crossing.

W hen allied troops, after thrusting into Red 'Korea last fall, dro.c close to the Manchurian border all across the peninsula, China threw tens nf thousands of her regular army forces into the conllict. That action forced an allied retreat back into South Korea. Since January 25. when the new eight army commander, Kt. C.en, Matthew H.
