U.S.-Made Planes Hit in Indo-China Red Raid
Hanoi, Indo-China—(U.P.)—Communist commandos infiltrated a network of sentries and guards and damaged "a number" of U.S.-built planes at an airfield manned by 40 American technicians, French authorities disclosed today.
As a result of the bold attack early Sunday morning, French Union forces declared a state of emergency at the airport, near the city of Haiphong.
There was no indication that any of the Americans, who are in Indo-China as non-combatants, were affected by the raid.
Authorities said the raiding party consisted of 40 to 50 men who slipped past security guards and trained dogs under cover of darkness after sneaking into native villages surrounding the field.
The raiders attached plastic explosives with adhesive tape to the engines of a group of planes parked in an unlightened area. The planes
Several Reds were killed and captured, authorities said, after the surprised sentries opened fire when the first flames shot into the night.
had been moved to make way for a new shipment of B-26's.
One of the prisoners, a Viet Minh company commander, said the Reds hid for several days in the villages.
Announcement of the emergency came after the French disclosed officially that Red Viet Minh commandos planned to attack airfields throughout Indo-China in an attempt to end French air supremacy.
Heavy guard details were posted around the Catbi airfield, six miles from Haiphong, where U.S. Air force technicians have been handling recently delivered C-119 packet planes and B-26 bombers.
Additionally, American-m a d e planes patrolled the skies over the strategic airbase.
Bats are the only mammals which possess the power of true flight. Other so-called "flying" animals, such as flying squirrels only glide.
VaticanHopesRise As Pope Improves
Vatican City —(U.P.)— Pope Pius XII was able to eat a small quantity of solid food again today, bolstering Vatican hopes that he may be on the road to complete recovery by the middle of the month.
A high Vatican source said the Pope's personal physician, Prof. Riccardo Galeaizzi-Lizi, was clearly pleased with the steady improvement of his 78-year-old Pontif. The nature of the Pope's illness is such that recovery may be rapid once he regains his strength.
The Pope has been suffering from a gastric ailment since Jan. 25 and at one point the Vatican was alarmed by his "seriously weakened" condition.

cut federal excise taxes by $1 billion.
Other Congressional developments:
The highway bill, backed by the administration, authorizes $875 million a year in federal aid for highway construction and repair during the 2-year period starting July 1, 1955.
Vote: Emmanuel Celler (D-N.Y.) planned to introduce legislation today to prevent any American from voting until he is 21. Rep. Celler said if the voting age is cut to 18, as requested by President Eisenhower, the action would provide a "fertile field" for corrupt politicians.
Taxes: The administration is reported trying to build up Senate opposition to a $1 billion cut in federal excise taxes that is expected to win House approval this week.
Alcove to Be 'Verboten'— Unless You Register First
There's no sign on the 12-foot folding wall telling cafeteria customers so, but the word came out today, and it's "hands off!"
By JIM BAIRD
Late last week workmen installed in the Student Union cafeteria a 12-foot "accordion" partition which, when drawn, will close off a small alcove on the west side of the dining area.
Since the building was opened for business early last year, this alcove has been a popular place for persons looking for a quiet place to study, for late-morning coffee drinkers, for bridge addicts, and for couples looking for a little corner in which to sit and talk.
Groups of various sorts also have eyed this quiet corner of the cafeteria as a good place to hold quick, informal meetings over a snack or cup of coffee without having to
bother with reservations and red tape. Even the chancellor and the deans of men and women have been caught using it occasionally.
From now on, however, meetings in this popular alcove must be registered with the Student Union business office. Union employees will then arrange to pull the curtain—free of charge.
The alcove will remain open to the public unless it has been reserved for a special group, however.
And woe unto him who would pull the curtain so he and the girl friend could have a nice, quiet place to talk. Unless, of course, he registers upstairs.
