WINTER'S SPRING—Patricia Joan Thomas, college freshman, and Harry William Smith, engineering freshman, found yesterday warm enough to take to the shade to study. Others like them shed their coats and enjoyed the spring like weather.
Ambassador, Commander Consult on Policy for Asia
Tokyo,—(U.P.)-U.S. ambassador to Japan John M. Allison and U.S. Far East Commander Gen. John E. Hull will leave here tomorrow for the United States to hold consultations which may charge the course of American policy in Asia
Both men have termed their Washington visits "routine" but observers here pointed out that the "routine" jobs of these men are very important to the United States.
It was believed their first-hand reports to the U. S. State department and the U. S. Department of Defense would carry considerable weight. Some quarters thought their reports might influence American policy in Asia as it is shaping up now—with an air peace talk efforts bogged down in Korea and Communist forces on the offensive in Indo-China.
Reliable sources here said they believed Mr. Allison may be called upon by U.S.State Department officials to give his views on these subjects;
1. The tense situation existing between Japan and Korea. The United States has defense pacts with both and wants them to cooperate. However, relations between the two countries are near a state of rupture.
2. Relations between Japan and the other nations of Asia, especially those to whom she owes reparations. Mr. Allison may be asked to give his views on the extent to which he thinks the United States should push Japan to settle these claims.
4. The wisdom of encouraging the taan nations to go ahead and set up an "Asian Pact" organization along the lines of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO).
3. The new U.S.-Japan Mutual Security agreement which is scheduled to be signed here when Mr. Allison returns from the United States. This will put Japan firmly on the side of the free nations in the struggle against Communism and push Japanese rearmament.
5. Anti-Americanism in Japan. The post-occupation "reaction" against the United States has subsided considerably and never was as bad as some had feared it would be.
Informed quarters here said the U. S. Defense department probably will ask Gen. Hull for his views on these matters;
1. The prospects for a Korean peace conference and the prospects for a renewal of fighting in Korea. Reliable sources said Gen. Hull does not think the Communists really want a peace conference and believes they will not break the armistic in the foreseeable future.
2. What American troops and equipment could safely be moved from Korea to Indo-China if the United States decided upon such a course of action.
Bridge Prizes Go to Victors
The first place trophy in the Student Union Activities all-campus bridge tournament will be awarded to John Bartholomew, college freshman, and Kevin Jones, graduate student.
The winners' percentage score in the tournament, held last December, was 63.16. The second place trophy goes to Edward Cornell, college junior, and Thomas Milne, graduate student, with a score of 62.56. Third place was shared by Charles Gillam, engineering senior, and Steve O'Brien, business senior, with scores of 60.35.
The tournament was sponsored by the SUA and the Four-No bridge club. The tournament director was Cornell, president of the Four-No club.
Undergraduates who played in the tournament will be invited to play in the National Intercollegiate Bridge tournament, held in February, on the basis of their percentage averages.
Three Conferences Planned for March
An architect's' conference on building types with emphasis on elementary schools will be March 2-3. The fourth annual conference Allstate will be March 16-17 and High School Science day will be March 20.
Dates for three conferences at the University in March were announced today by T. H. Walker, director of University Extension.
Kefauver says,
Reliable sources said Gen. Hull believes the Chinese Communists and the North Koreans may desire a settlement in Korea more than the Russians. Hull was said to feel the Russians may consider their threat to the North Korean and Chinese armies there on the 38th parallel so that United States will have to tie down large numbers of troops in South Korea.
"Let's investigate Club Dixie"
Program details will be announced soon, he said.

Ocean Resources To Be Developed
Washington. —(U.P.)—The government has made its first move to develop the oil and other resources in ocean-bottom lands lying seaward of the so-called tidels which were turned over to the states last year.
Interior Secretary Douglas McKay announced last night tentative regulations governing the issuance of federal leases to private companies to begin development of the outer continental shelf of the Gulf of Mexico.
The continental shelf extends as much as 100 miles into the Gulf of Mexico. It is believed to contain rich deposits of oil and sulphur off Louisiana and Texas.
McKay announced that the bureau of land management will issue leases on a competitive basis while the geo- survey would supervise operations
The "Tidelands" bill enacted last year fixed the historical boundaries of the states at $10.5$ miles seaward in the case of Texas and West Florida and three miles seaward for other states. The Federal Government will supervise operations beyond those to the edge of the continental shelf.
Rhode Island and Alabama have asked the Supreme Court for permission to challenge the "Tidelands" bill. They contend that in approving it congress "abdicated" federal power and that the statute is unconstitutional.
The Interior department said interested persons may submit "written comments, suggestions or objections on the proposed regulations to the office of the solicitor . . . within 30 days from the date of publication of this notice."
KU Speakers Win Honors
It asked for comment on the desirability of limiting the proposed regulations to oil and gas and adopting separate regulations for sulphur and other materials.
