Cambodia Ends Thailand Ties
BANGKOK, Thailand — (UPI) Relations between Thailand and Cambodia sank to their lowest point today since diplomatic ties between the two countries were severed in late 1958.
The Cambodian government last night broke off diplomatic relations with Thailand following a charge by Thai Prime Minister Sarit Thanarat that the Communists planned to make Cambodia a jumping-off spot for attacks on nearby southeast Asia nations.
Less than three years ago, Cambodia suspended diplomatic relations with Thailand, which sealed off its border with Cambodia. The dispute was over the ownership of a border temple ruin.
THE CAMBODIAN parliament, in an emergency session, empowered the government to call on the Communist bloc for aid in event of war with Thailand.
THREE MONTHS later, the two nations announced the restoration of diplomatic ties.
The current showdown came to a head less than three weeks ago when Prince Sihanouk in Tokyo allegedly made disparaging remarks about his "pro-Western neighbors" at a news conference.
In Washington, State Department spokesman Lincoln White said yesterday that the U.S. government has appealed to Thailand and Cambodia for "statesmanlike" settlement of their differences in the face of a common threat from Communism.
Sihanouk denied Thanarat's charge and said Cambodia was "strictly neutral" and had no ties with the Communist camp.
Wozzeck' Shown Today in Film Series
"Wozzeck," a German film, is the second attraction of the University Film Series today in room 3 of Bailey Hall. The film will be shown at 4, 6 and 8 p.m. Admission is free.
"Wozzeck," written by Georg Buchner, is considered a prototype of expressionism 100 years before the technique had been fully developed.
The film tells of a soldier in the Prussian army who allows himself to be overpowered by his superiors. His only hold on life is his relationship with a prostitute by whom he had a child.
Roy Davis, radiochemist of the Brookhaven National Laboratory, will present a seminar on "Meteorites and Cosmic Rays" at 4 p.m. Tuesday in 122 Malol.
When his love is seduced by a Prussian soldier, Wozzeck, crazed with jealousy, kills her and commits suicide.
Chemist to Speak On Cosmic Rays
At Brookhaven Mr. Davis first developed a chemical method for detection of neutrino reactions. More recently he has been measuring the radioactivity present in meteorites, recovered Discoverer satellites and minerals exposed to cosmic ray bombardment for long periods of time.
Biochemistry Grant Awarded
Research by a biochemist at KU may hasten a breakthrough in science's understanding of virus multiplication in living systems.
Philip Newmark, associate professor of biochemistry, has received a new grant of $25,000 for two years' work on his project, which is entitled "Nucleic Acid, Protein and Virus Synthesis in Green Plants." The National Science Foundation is supporting the research, which is a continuation of studies begun six years ago.
Mr. Davis received his Ph.D. in 1942 from Yale University and has been with the Brookhaven National Laboratory since 1948.
A graduate assistant and undergraduate participants will be named later.
Soviet Explosion-

tee to act urgently on an appeal to the Kremlin not to explode its multi-megaton bomb.
The Russian people had not yet been told of the explosion, and it was not certain that even the Communist leaders attending the current Party Congress in Moscow had been informed.
While Western observers were unable to say definitely that the blast was the 50-megaton explosion predicted last week by Premier Nikita Khrushchev, it appeared certain that it had at least the force of 30 million tons of TNT—half again the power of any previous bomb.
Weather bureau experts in Washington predicted that a small portion of the radioactive fallout will reach the west coast of North America by Thursday or Friday, with much of the early fallout back-firing on Russia itself.
KU Advertising Group to K.C.
Flint Hall will be nearly empty Thursday when students interested in current advertising trends attend the seventh annual "Ideas Today" program in Kansas City.
More than 400 advertising men, sales executives, and students will hear seven leaders in advertising and related fields discuss new ideas at the Advertising and Sales Executives Club in Kansas City, Mo.
The daylong session, sponsored b. the Advertising Roundtable o. Kansas City, will feature the widely-known illustrator, Albert Dorne of Westport, Conn. Mr. Dorne will speak on "Does Art Really Sell Products?"
Guests will also hear ideas about marketing research, audio-visual materials, women's marketing, public relations, and the Federal Trade Commission.

Prof. Vanderwerf to Cornell
Calvin VanderWert, chairman of the KU chemistry department, will present the banquet address at the annual meeting of the Midwestern Association of Chemistry Teachers at Liberal Arts Collections (MACTLAC) at Cornell College, Mt. Vernon, Iowa, on Friday, Oct. 27.
His speech. "Salt of the Earth," will discuss the role of liberal arts colleges in training scientists.

Girl Watcher's Guide
Presented by Pall Mall Famous Cigarettes
LESSON 2 - What about standards?
Advanced students of girl watching never waste eyeball effort watching girls who are not beautiful. Standards must be kept high.
But how do we judge whether a girl is worth watching? Although many strict academicians will shudder at our aesthetics, we must insist that a girl is beautiful if she is beautiful to you. (That's the beauty of girl watching. Every girl is beautiful to someone!) For example, many observers have pointed out that the Bare-Backed Beachbomb (see above) has a weak chin.
Yet none of these keen-eyed experts would deny that she is indeed an attractive specimen. And, speaking of standards, don't forget to keep your smoking standards high. Smoke Pall Mall!
