Election Reflections
With FACTS in charge of both the Pach-dominated houses it's going to be quite a challenge to say just who is goofing up whom.
The hokum ground out by propagandists in both parties the last few weeks was nearly unbearable. Pach at least is honest enough to give a hee-haw whenever one of its party wheels tries to feed Daily Kansan reporters flowery words about Pach's idealistic viewpoint.
If you think this last year was bad, get ready for a real hassle in the All Student Council during this next legislative year.
"From now on, we shall strive to see," he quoth, "that Pach remains clean and pure as the driven snow."
Example: Larry Loftus, Pach president, at a recent Inner Circle meeting said he felt that pettiness and partisanship had been too much a part of Hill politics.
The line from FACTS wasn't much better. Quotes from the top always sound like they were liften en toto from the introduction to a book on political science.
Will Adams is the No.2 FACTS boy when it comes to turning out little gems that shimmer and gleam long after everybody's gone home.
Granted that in most instances Adams is saying exactly what he believes, it still is obvious that FACTS can never live up to all that one says about it. Everyone in FACTS realizes that politics by any other name is still politics—that on occasion something that doesn't glitter has to be done in order to keep moving toward the more distant goals.
Question of the year, and the years to come: When are the sweet young things in NOW party going to realize that by now they represent the difference between Pach's winning and losing? If they woke up to the beauty of their position they could start throwing their weight around and demand the presidency and vice presidency of some future Council.
Now that election time has come and gone, the attendance at ACTS meetings, swollen these last few weeks by the presence of all their hopeful candidates, will probably drop to its normal par of bout a dozen souls at each gathering. —Tom Stewart

United Nations May Charge Communists with Cheating
Panmunjom—(U.P.)—The United Nations command indicated today it may formally charge the Communists with cheating on their agreement to return all sick and wounded Allied war prisoners.
UN officials gave high priority today to the careful assembly of all evidence of bad faith by the Reds despite a Communist announcement that more than the 650 men originally listed would be sent home.
An authoritative source said a United Nations protest probably will be made after officials have interviewed all returning prisoners.
The unexpected and ambiguous Communist announcement that additional men will be returned was interpreted here to apply principally to men recently wounded and captured.
Freed United Nations soldiers told today of fiendish Communist tortures, of epidemics that swept through prison camps—and of an ammunition shortage on the western front.
Allied officials said they are inclined to believe, on evidence supplied by the early exchanges, that
A South Korean whose fingers rotted away while his hands were tied behind him, who was hung up by his heels while his guards shook pepper in his mouth and nostrils was one who told his story.
Another South Korean saw 1,000
men die in one camp.
Band to Feature UP March In Spring Concert Monday
The first UN woman prisoner repatriated, a South Korean Army cook, said the Chinese Reds beat her on two successive days with a steel stick.
"The United Press March," a new composition by Paul Lavalle, will be one of the features of the University band's annual spring concert Monday night in Hoch auditorium.
"You killed many of our comrades; now we will have revenge," a soldier quoted his captors as saying.
South Korean Park Chong Soo told of his fellow soldiers dying at the rate of 100 a day when an epidemic hit Hapung prison camp. About 1,000 bodies were hauled away in oxcarts, he said.
"There was no treatment," he added.
Park said 15 out of a group of South Koreans were shot by North Korean guards on a three-day forced march. Any man who stopped to relieve himself was shot, he said.
The Kansan, informed of the new piece by a letter from the UP, passed the information on to Prof. Russell L. Wiley, the band's director.
The Americans released today told no stories of atrocities.
Prof. Wiley telephoned New York several days ago to order the score, which was rushed here by air.
Marine Pvt. Louis A. Pumphrey, of Cottondale, Ala., said he suffered most from that "cold, cold winter" on the bank of the Yalu river after his capture Oct. 6.
Mr. Lavalle, whose many musical works include a number of stirring marches, is the conductor of radio and television's Band of America.
The theme for the march was suggested by Hugh Baillie, UP president. Mr. Baillie, a band music enthusiast, wanted an original martial air descriptive of the United Press.
After visiting the news gathering organization, Mr. Lavalle wrote the march. It was first played Dec. 8, 1952, at the Belasco theater in New York, source of Band of America broadcasts.
Of his composition Mr. Lavalle has said, "Its basis is the staccato of the high-frequency transoceanic wireless code and the peep of the telephoto receivers. I have dedicated the march to the newspaper, radio, and television reporters of the free world."
