Korean Fighting Flares In Air, Artillery Action
Seoul, Korea — (U.P.) The Chinese Communists attacked four United Nations hills on the western front tonight under cover of heavy artillery fire and at last reports succeeded in fighting their way into trenches atop one of the allied positions.
The vicious attacks began at 7:15 p.m. (4:15 a.m. CST) west of Old Baldy mountain, where U.S. 7th division troops have been fighting a three-day battle for the strategic height.
Reports from the front were sketchy. It was known only that the four attacks were launched and that the Communists had overrun U.N. trenches on one hill. The U.N. defenders engaged the Reds at close quarters with knives, bayonets, fists, and hand grenades.
Red artillery was "very heavy" at all four hills. Observers believed the Reds may have made the new siege to relieve pressure on Old Baldy.
The 8th Army said that up to 6 p.m. last night LS39 Red troops had been killed or wounded in the re-attack of "Communist "human wave" assaults.
American fighter-bombers dropped 200,000 pounds of bombs today on Chinese troops defending Old Baldy. At the same time, allied warplanes destroyed or damaged eight Communist MIGs that tried to break up the pulverizing attacks.
U. N. Sabre jets destroyed one MIG, probably destroyed another, and damaged five more of the Russian-built jet fighters.
A propeller-driven Marine Corsair, believed hopelessly outmatched by the swift enemy jet fighters, damaged another MIG in a fight about 40 miles north of the 38th parallel.

Velde Discloses Secret Red School
Los Angeles —(U.P.)— Communists operated a secret school in California only three months ago to plot "a dictatorship of the proletariat after a revolution," a house Un-American Activities subcommittee charged today.
Rep. Harold Velde, (R-III), chairman of the committee which now is investigating communism in southern California professions, disclosed yesterday that last December the school trained Communists to infiltrate key defense industries.
Rep. Velde said the school was held at Camp Tenaya in the nearby San Bernardino mountains

Prosecutor Gene Ballou, second year law, sought by questioning of Bill Wilson, former ASC president, to establish that Pach-controlled Councils of several years ago were suitable for many constructive measures.
Wilson cited several examples, including the securing of a snack bar in the Student Union, the legality of ID card transfers, the securing of "name" bands for University social functions, and several others.
He also testified that, to his knowledge, there was no corruption among Fach members on the Council while he was president. Wilson resigned the presidency Feb. 17 of this year.
Larry Loftus, college sophomore, and Pach president, denied the existence of any Pach constitutional provision that would deny independent students the rights to join Pach.
"I have never heard expressions by Pach Inner Circle members to the effect that they do not want independent students admitted." Loftus said.
This statement followed a reference by defense counsel Don Giffin, third year law, to Dana Anderson's earlier statement that "one or two certain individuals wouldn't want Independents in Pach."
Roy Bennett, second year law, law,
asserted that he and a group of law
students last year petitioned Pach
representation in the Inner Circle.
Libel Case
Their petition was acceptable to the party, Bennett said he was told, but he and the other signers decided against following through because they did not wish to pay the initiation fee and dues.

Men's, Women's Glee Clubs Balance Diversified Program
A diversified program of lyric, operatic and popular numbers was sweetly balanced by the combined men's and women's glee clubs last night in the Spring concert at Hoch auditorium.
Bv AL TRALDI
Prof. Joseph Wilkins and Prof. Clayton Krehbiel alternated in di- recting the chorale.
The men started with the Pilgrim's chorus from "Tannhauser" by Wagner, and the women followed with five songs that Brahms wrote for the chorus of girls that he used to lead.
In melodic variations they sang "O shouldst thou pass by a new made grave," the Slavish ballad "Questions" with "Of what use are hands so slim, if bade to withhold them ever from him," a "Barcrole," "The Nun" and "Behold! The roses are blooming."
For the piece de resistance of the program—"A te, o cara" from I Purunti by the Sicilian composer Giacomo women club members, and the quartet of guest artists.
The last part of the program was occupied by "The Desert Song" by Romberg and "Rigoleto a la Jayhawk—about fifteen men." Somebody in the audience remembered a similar skit of the Jayhawk Octette back in the Glee clubs concert of 1943. They agreed there was an improvement, at least, in the number of singers.
First bass Jack Weathered, 6-foot-
6, twittered over the skull of first tenor Bob Laughlin, 5-foot-6, rubbing Bob's eyes with the carnation he wore at his buttonhole. David Rosario mixed his full-toned voice with his Latin skill for pantomime. The number was particularly well-received by the audience that guffawed and applauded several times.
Barbara Thompson and Jerald Stone were the accompaniists.
