Himalaya Peasant Refugees Living in Makeshift Homes
Kpw rinlhl -lUPl) More than
8.000 refugees from the Hima
layan mountain areas overrun
by the Communist Chinese
are living in thatched hut
camps and makeshift quarters
in Assam state today and
wondering what comes next.
The refugees for the most
part are long-haired, moon
faced Mompas, who fled be
fore the Chinese October at
tack from the valley homes
where their kind have lived
for hundreds of years.
First, they fled the monas
tery town of Towang to Bom
dl La, and then went from
Bomdi La to the plains of As
sam when the Chinese struck
again.
They walked, rode tiny
mountain ponies or were car
ried by truck from the fight
ing areas In the northeast
frontier agency (NKFA) to
the refugee camps in Assam.
The Assam State govern
ment undertook to help them
by setting up makeshift camps
Suuth of the Brahmaputra riv
er near Tezpur, and in Gau
hati, 100 miles farther to the
southwest, wheie they are be
ing housed in school and col
lege buildings.
Record Demand Noted for Grads In Teaching Field
Corvallis - A record num-notes in her report. Oppor-
ber of requests for teachers
were handled by the Oregon
State University Teacher
Placement office the past year
and the over-all Job outlook
for graduates this year is as
good or better.
But opportunities are con
siderably brighter in some
teaching fields than others
and school administrators are
"much more choosy than ever
before" in selection of new
teachers, says Mrs. Kathryn
H. Smith. Teacher Placement
program director at OSU 1
a former school superintend
ent. More well-trained elemen
tary teachers are especially
needed now - and will be for
years to come - Mrs. Smith
tunities are especially good
for men in elementary edu
cation, she added.
Biggest teacher shortage
fields in junior and -senior
high schools the past year
included the physical sciences
(physics, chemistry, math),
English (particularly women
teachers), foreign languages,
girls physical education, and
library.
College Opportunities
A steady demand exists for
teachers of agriculture, home
economics and Industrial arts.
College teacher opportunities
are getting better each year
with rapidly increasing en

Freighter Breaks
Info Three Parts
Coos Bay-IUPD-The stricken
lumber ship Alaska Cedar of
Portland has broken into
three parts, the Coast Guard
said.
The 256-foot vessel, carry
ing a load of lumber, was
smashed onto the north jetty
at Coos Bay Sunday. A heli
copter helped rescue Its crew
of 24 men.
A spokesman for the Coast
Guard said the center section
of the ship had dropped off
the jetty into the water. The
forward and after sections
were on the jetty, the spokes
man said.
In their bulky robes, felt
clothes and leather boots, they
drink thick tea and wonder
what their next move will be.
Most are expected to return
to their Himalayan homes in
the wake of any Red Chinese
withdrawals.
Many will return after their
first look at the Indian plains
with some serious doubts
about the future and their In
dian protectors.
The refugees told reporters
in Tezpur shortly after their
arrival last month that "air

best in these hills.'
'Why not send airplanes to
help us?" they asked. "(Prime
Minister Jawaharlal) Nehru is
a great leader. Why does he
not hurl these invaders from
our land?
"When you allow them into
your house, it is difficult to
get rid of them. Is it not fool
ish to venture into a threaten
ing storm without umbrellas?
Why not prepare fully for the
next storm?"
Indian officials are not
commenting, but one of their
toughest problems if Indian
control is re-established
throughout the NEFA will be
to regain the confidence of the
tribesmen. For the past 15
years, Indian administrators
have been at work establish
ing contact in the wild tribal
area which the British left
largely alone when they con
trolled India.
India's crushing defeat at
the hands of the Red Chinese
is expected to make the tribes
men dubious of New Delhi's
authority.
One newsman observed that
"Indian troops are unlikely to
be greeted by cheers when
and if they return to Bombi
La and Towang.
The Chinese also are expect
ed to leave behind Mompa
agents of their own, which
will force the Indians to crack
down on some natives for se
curity reasons and probably
thereby breed dissention.
Furs Make Gills
For All Ages
Wife or mother, sister or
fiancee, or perhaps your fa
vorite aunt if she's a wom
an, then it's a sure thing she's
the type for fur.
Of course your budget and
her tastes will be determining
factors in your final selection,
but there are inviting selec
tions of a multitude of fur
coats, stoles, jackets and little
accessories to help you select
just the right fur for her.
A luxurious fur stole or
cape will transform Mrs.
Homemaker into a glamour
queen; Miss Career will thrill
at a fur boa, scarf or petite
cape of mink or other fine fur.
Miss Collegienne will cheer
loudly at a pert fur jacket to
wear to football games or top
her date frocks.
Furs this year are a verita
ble wonderland of long and
short haired beauties; colors
are most fanciful in natural
shades, as well as tints, dyes
and mutations. Mink comes in
a wide range of exciting hues
from White-to-blues to browns-to-black.
Even "littlest angels" will
love a bunny hat, jacket, muff
or scarf they're never too
young (or too old) for fur.
You'll be saying "Merry
Christmas" loud and clearly
when you find that just right
fur for your special someone.
