U. N. Recaptures
'Old Baldy' Hil!
SEOUL, Korea, Sunday (IP Unit
ed Nations infantrymen, confusing
the Communists with dummy at
tacks and fake radio messages, re
captured strategic Old Baldy Hill
Sunday with a sudden, violent as
sault. Allied troops stormed to the
crest of the height west of Chor-
won on the Western Front and the
surprised Reds offered no heavy,
resistance.
An American soldier was found
alive on top the naked, shell
rocked hill.
SURVIVED TWO DAYS
"The soldier had been holed up
in a bunker for two days," report
ed United Press War Correspond
ent Frederick C. Painton from the
front.
"Somehow he had survived two
days of Allied and Communist ar
tillery and mortar fire. He was
wounded, but he will live.

Soviet readers were told Sat
urday. The press reported a lecture
by V. A. Holodkov sponsored by
the all-union society for spread

knowledge.
"Examination of history re
veals that the very idea of set
ting up Red Cross societies arose
in Russia and not abroad," Hol
odkov said.
He dated this Russian Inven
tion to the time of the Russo
Polish war in the mld-17th cen
tury. In addition, he said, the Rus
sian society played leading roles
in setting up the International
Red Cross committee in Switzer
land in 1863.

During the attack a group of

them.

NEWSMAN vs. NEWSMAN
Aboard the train, the writer was
quizzed for 15 minutes by Jim Mur
ray, a Time Magazine reporter
accompanying Nixon. Murray, tak
ing rapid notes wanted to know
how Eugeneans felt about what he
called "the Nixon scandal," the
area's previous voting preference.
party registrations, economic
wealth, populations, etc.
The interview ended, Murray for
the first time asked the identity of
the writer.
"Oh, I thought you were a local
Republican!" he said on learning
it. But he took a few more notes
anyway. Just to make things even,
the writer interviewed Murray
who had this to say:
"Nixon seemed over-confident
and that's never a good thing, until
this money thing came along. That
settled him down and made him
nervous. Now his speeches are
more vigorous, more sincere. They
tried to ignore the $16,000 at first,
you know, a pretty foolish thing.
DON'T SEE NIXON
"Nixon? No, we never see Nixon.
There are no press conferences. We one and two work topic reminders,

The Eugene school board Satur
day urged defeat of the measure
to be voted on Tuesday which
would establish kindergartens
throughout School District 4.
Until now. the board has been
neutral on the issue. Members of
the board issued the following
statement, however, giving their
reasons why they believe "this is
not the proper time for the estab
lishment of kindergartens in our
system.
The statement:
"In normal times and under or
dinary circumstances the Eugene
attack! school board would welcome the
addition of kindergartens to the
school program. It appreciates the
contribution kindergartens can
make to the education of children.
"These are not, however, normal
times in this district, and in the
"They will probably
again," he reported early today,
"but as of right now we hold Old
Baldy."
While the Allies took the initia
tive on Old Baldy, the Chinese
launched a series of attacks else
where on the Western and Central i board's judgment this is not the
Fronts.
LOST ONE HILL
The U.N. lost one hill.

proper time for the establishment
of kindergartens in our system.
During the past few years the
board has had to ask the voters to
approve expenditures of several
million dollars for new buildings
and each year must ask them for
approval of an operating budget in
excess of the six per cent limitation
by more than a million dollars.
"After the current year the need
will, because of greatly increased
enrollments, become even more
acute. Not only will the board have
to ask for increased operating bud
gets to care for greater numbers
of children each year, and to meet
further inflationary costs, but it
must also ask approval of addition
al building funds to house six hun
dred more new children each year.
"With the completion of current
building projects now under coh-j
tract, building funds already voted
will have been used except for a !
$250,000 serial levy which ends in ,
1953-54. This levy, probably with a :
substantial increase, must be 'oted
again next year or it will not be
possible to provide enough rooms
for the children.
"In voting on the establishment of i
kindergartens, providing the funds
with which to operate them for the
first year, and to build the rooms,
the school board asks only that the
people keep in mind these addition
al needs which must be met during
the next few years. If the voters
do decide to approve kindergartens
as an addition to the Eugene school
program, the board hopes that they
will also plan on giving their ap
proval to these other very neces
sary school needs as they are pre
ray, are with the train. Most of
them represent wire services and
syndicates. They rarely leave the
press car, which is a club car, but
with typewriters. Their stories Sat
urday, for instance, indicated Eu
gene was just a routine stop, be
cause none of the newsmen left
the car to watch the crowd.
MANY STAFF MEMBERS
Nixon's staff outnumbers news
men by several times. According
to labels on compartment doors,
there are even secretaries to the
secretaries. There are secretaries
in charge of the different news
media, who take all the burden off
Nixon.
He came through the Lane Coun
ty car and shook hands with each
person, but he would answer no
questions. All comments, his staff
indicated, had to come through the
proper secretary who was nowhere
at hand.
But on the train's rear platform,
he makes his own releases. He is
a vigorous speaker, obviously ex
perienced. He uses many gestures, with the
desired effect, and puts one of both
hands into the pockets of his well-
tailored suit coat, when he doesn't
need them.
REMINDER CARD
He uses a now-you-see-it, now-
you-don't reminder card during his
talks. On the 2 by 4 inch card are
off the cuff.
But is isn't.
It is memorized almost to the
word. He varies it from town to
town in little more than arrange
ment of points. But is is apparently
his own speech, from his own mind,
and he changes it minutely be
tween stops to meet the situation.
He ate lunch between Eugene
and Albany and had no time to
himself or to talk with his staff.
BETTER REBUTTAL
Yet in Albany his rebuttal of the
money charge was much more ef
fective. A few small changes in
wording and emphasis did it. News
men say it has improved with each
stop.
He makes no bones about his
lack of knowledge of the area. He
admitted in Albany that he didn't
know which congressional district
he was in. He admitted there that
he didn't know what time it was:
" . . this morning, or is it this at; '
ternoon?
And he can sway a crowd by a
string of accusations against the
present administration. He can get
crowd participation by asking a
series of questions, waiting for the
always unanimous answer to each.
In Albany he was visibly tired,
he muffed words. He hesitated. His
voice cracked. He was becoming
hoarse. But the speech was still
forceful. Old campaigners recalled
that Wilkie's voice was similar and
that it gave nut toward the end of
that campaign. Would Nixon last,
they wondered.
And they wondered how success
fully he can counter the Democrats'
jests about his $16,000 gift which
incidentally was raised to $18,235
by Nixon himself Saturday.
