Red Nation Asks For U.S. Wheat
NEW YORK—(UPI)—Communist Czechoslovakia today approached the United States on the possibility of buying American wheat and was informed that a deal probably could be arranged if Prague could pay cash in dollars or other convertible currency.
Grain shortages forced Russia into the western market recently where she concluded a deal to purchase Canadian wheat.
COMMUNIST Poland has bought U.S. surplus grain in previous years for non-convertible currency under the U.S. program for aid of this sort. The deal has been extended to Poland as part of Washington's effort to woo that country from rigid Moscow ties.
Czech Foreign Minister Vaclav David raised the subject during an hour-long talk with Secretary of State Dean Rusk.
David expressed an interest in the general increase in trade. He was told, American sources said, that the United States favored this but regulations, was prohibited from $x$ it hinged on development of better relations between the two countries and a general improvement in the international atmosphere.
Rusk apparently made it clear that the United States, under various

which is now in effect. We hope people will realize this. If a rewording would help clear up possible misconceptions, I would gladly agree to it."
HRC members at first hoped that the rephrasing could be completed in time to present it in final form to the ASC last night. But the attempt was not successful, because the council met immediately after the discussion.
Thompson said the HRC debated on whether to denounce religious discrimination in the section of the bill on bias in social organizations.
Several additional points concerning the human rights legislation were brought out during the discussion.
"WE DECIDED TO leave references to religion out," he said. "We do have fraternities which discriminate against non-Christians, but we also have denominational fraternities. We were not sure that we could write an escape clause for the denominational fraternities and be clear in our meaning."
be clear in our work. Thompson added that the HRC report, upon which the legislation is based, showed that KU students are not "fireballs" on the issue of civil rights.
"But neither are they as apathetic as some people would have us believe," he said ___
Psychology Club To Sponsor Talk
Peter J. Caws, professor of philosophy, said last night attempts to predict future events from historical evidence are futile.
Prof. Caws spoke last night at a History club panel discussion. Other members of the panel were: Oswald Backus, professor of history and Felix Moos, instructor of antropology.
"The history of civilized man is too short to permit the formulation of sound theories regarding patterns or cycles of events." Prof. Caws said.
However, Prof. Backus said historical information should be taken into account by those making predictions. He said history is useful to the sciences which then attempt to predict future events.
About 60 persons attended the meeting in the Meadowlark room of the Kansas Union.
A LASTING RECORD OF 49 knockdowns occurred before Battling Nelson knocked out Christy Williams at Hot Springs in the 17th round in 1902. Williams was down 42 downs; Nelson, seven.
RUSK ALSO met with the chairman of the Indian delegation to the United Nations, Mme. Vijaya Lakshmi Pandit, with whom he discussed India's domestic problems as well the nation's difficulties with neighboring Pakistan and Red China
tending credit to Communist countries, particularly those in default on any obligations to the U.S. government.
Mme. Pandit said U.S.-Indian economic and military problems were discussed, particularly those relating to India's development program. She declined to say what assessment she had given Rusk of the current situation between India and Red China.
Rusk met this afternoon with Spanish Foreign Minister Fernando Maria Castiella Yumaiz on renewing an agreement under which the U.S. has naval and air bases in Spain. The 10-year pact expires tomorrow but was expected to be extended for five years.

Museum to Get Big Game Heads
A collection of big game animal trophies given to the Museum of Natural History will go on display this year.
The collection, which consists of 59 mounted animal heads, was given to the museum by the late Dr. Curt von Wedel, an Oklahoma City surgeon.
J. KNOX JONES, assistant professor of zoology, said that only a few of the heads would be placed on display. The remainder will be kept in other parts of the museum, to be used for study and research purposes.
The primary value of the gift is that some of the animals in the collection are extremely rare or extinct.
Each specimen is labeled with the location where it was shot. Unlike most mounted animals, the bones have been left in the heads.
THESE FACTORS make this collection extremely important for research, Prof. Knox said.
The 59 mounted animals were added to the mammal collection at the museum which now numbers about 95,000. It is one of the largest in the country.
