The Communists refused today ... . .. to shift the Korean truce talks from Kaesong to the no-man's land village of Songhyon. Gen. Matthew B. Ridgway promptly asked them to auggest some other site between the battle lines. "Mince you reject my suggestion'to meet at Songhyon, I propose that our delegations meet at a site selected by you and acceptable te I me approximately midway between our respective front lines," the ** general told the Reds. Meanwhile, five tank-led U.N. divisions .. . . . . smashed ahead up to four miles from their jump-off positions Thursday in the biggest Allied offensive since the Korean truce talks began.

Iran will take a walk . .. .. . out of the United Nations security council if it claims jurisdiction in the Anglo-Iranian oil dispute, deputy premier Hossein Fatemi stated Thursday. The deputy premier told a press conference that Premier Mohanned Mossadegh will "repudiate Britanin’s complaint" to the U.N. and challenge the security council’s authority to deal with the question. Karlier Mossadegh had told Parliament in a speech that ended in a torrent of tears that he is going to New York to find out whether the council is just "another trap for weak nations.” Members of the House disagreed Thursday ... ... over the final approval of the massive $57,200,000 defense ap propriation, the biggest chunk of military spending since World War II.

Most Oregon students asked the above question by the Inquiring Reporter were at a loss as to what the organization was or how Ore gon would benefit or fail to bene fit by membership. Of the few students who had heard of the group, the majority favored joining the national stu dent group. Elizabeth Johnson — sophomore in liberal arts "It's up to the Uni versity students to decide. It should be put up to a vote." Klta Brown junior in speech— “Oregon should join the NSA. It would promote more interest in student government and give the school more recognition national ly.” Howard Smith senior in physi cal education— "Wouldn't hurt the school to join. It's good experience for the participants in student government to take part in a group of national scope." Ann Moyes- junior in political science "Joining the NSA might broaden the viewpoint of students on national affairs. Being in a na tionwide organization like NSA, it might be possible for the students' opinions to carry a little more weight." Harry Giles — graduate student in physical education — “Don't think too much of the idea. The membership money could be spent for student scholarships or some other worthy campus cause.” Anita Holmes - senior in jour nalism “Oregon should definitely join the NSA if the budget will possibly allow it." Robert Barber — sophomore in liberal arts—“Won't make much difference to school as a whole. About the only ones that it would affect would be the students in student government.” Joan Jacobs — junior in educa tion—“Oregon might be better known nationally if it were in such a large organization. Also, the schools could do more as a group to change national policies and get students ideas before the general public than trying to stand alone on an issue.” Donna Covalt—junior in drawing and painting—“In order to have more influence for student views the NSA needs more backing and support for the nation's schools. It would be a step in the right di rection if Oregon joined the group." John Ranlett — graduate stu dent in mathematics — "I don't favor the idea. Use the student body's money for some other pur pose. For example, an altempt to bolster school spirit which is rath er sadly lacking.” r TjT~~ —» For the Best in fish and seafoods Call 4-2371 NEWMAN'S FISH MARKET Fresh, frozen and canned fish and seafoods 39 East Broadway 287 Women Sign for Rushing With 287 women signed up for I fall rushing, the first period of ! dates begin this afternoon at 4 p. ! m.
