Religious Emphasis Official Says 10,000 Benefited
About 10,000 persons were reached through the appearance of the 10 Religious Emphasis week speakers in 68 classrooms, 38 organized houses, personal interviews and symposiums, according to Dr. John H. Patton, executive secretary of the Religious Emphasis week steering committee.
"However," Dr. Patton said, "the real values of the week cannot be estimated now, for only time will tell how individual students and faculty members will express in their human relationships the necessity for an intelligent and vital faith."
The week, which began Sunday with the appearance of the speakers in Lawrence churches, was climaxed last night with a Fellowship dinner in the ballroom of the Union. Bengt Hoffman was the speaker at the all-student convocation Monday.
Throughout the week, the speakers participated in classroom discussions, taught classes relevant to their special fields, led seminars and symposiums, and spoke in organized houses.
Breakfast at 6:30 a.m. for speakers, members of the steering committee, and committee chairmen, followed by worship at Danforth chapel at 7:30 a.m. was a daily feature of the week.
Seven of the ten speakers were sponsored by the University Christian Mission of the National Council of Churches. Other speakers were sponsored by the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, Hillel foundation, and the Canterbury association.
Reds Fire at Four Fleeing East Berlin
Berlin — (U.P.)— Trigger-happy Communist border guards fired at four persons along the frontier of the western allied sectors of Berlin and west German police said today the Reds apparently have issued shoot to kill orders to halt the flight of German refugees from Soviet East Germany.
West Berlin police said one man was shot when the Red guards fired upon two men who appeared to be attempting to cross from the Soviet sector of the city into the U.S. sector yesterday. Nothing was known of the extent of his injuries. Guards also fired on another man at the same inter-city border point and took both into custody.
Such a shoot to kill order has been in force since last June along the frontier of West Germany and the forbidden Soviet zone of occupation, but had not previously applied in Berlin.
took both In a similar incident, West Berlin police said, Communist guards fired at two women who crossed the dead zone being set up between west sectors of the city and the Russian occupied surrounding countryside. Western police said the women were not hit.

Buddhist Petition Planned for Provoo
Tokyo—(U.P.)A campaign to reduce the life sentence imposed on former U.S. Army Sgt. John David Provoo for treason was announced today by the Buddhist sect to which the American belonged.
A New York Federal court convicted Provope of treason for aiding the Japanese during World War II. Provope was captured by the Japanese on Corregidor.
Officials of the Nirienir Buddhist sect said they would seek one million signatures to a petition which would state, "The Japanese military was to blame. Please forgive Provoo."
mission would carry out congressional policies regarding land and water use and public power, working with an advisory committee of the state governors.
The group said its study showed the present federal hasin program has major deficiencies, including lack of a clear policy and legislative directive setting forth methods for cost allocation and accounting and a continuous check to see that the intent of Congress is being achieved.
Washington—(U.R.)The Missouri Basin Survey commission recommended today that Congress establish a five-member agency to coordinate and direct development of the area's resources.
Missouri Basin Group Recommends Agency to Coordinate Resources
The group, composed of congressmen and representatives of various interests in the 10 basin states, was set up by former President Truman in January, 1952, to study the basin and the problems of basin development.
The group said in a 300-page report that the recommended commission would have broad powers to direct and supervise the federal agencies in carrying out their development responsibilities, thereby making it possible-for the first time in the Missouri basin—to give unified and coherent direction to the hitherto uncoordinated agency programs.
The new commission would "direct resource development activities of the federal government in the Missouri basin and coordinate these activities with resource development of the states," the study group said.
3 Americans Die In UN Bombing
The commission said the proposed agency, to be called the Missouri Basin commission, would not be a Missouri Valley authority and would not replace existing agencies or assume full and complete authority for every phase of federal activity in the basin.
The report recommended that the states be permitted to refuse to participate in the new commission within two years after it is set up by Congress, but said it is desirable that the commission operate in all the basin states.
In a brief statement, the 8th Army said the planes dropped six bombs
These states are Colorado, Iowa,
Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri,
Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, South
Dakota, and Wyoming.
An investigation is under way, the 8th Army said.
Seoul, Korea — (U.P.) The 8th Army admitted today that three American soldiers were killed and five others were wounded Feb. 2 when several planes, presumably Allied, dropped bombs on U.S. troops behind the front.
The new commission would be appointed by the President to retain the nationwide policy of federal responsibility for resource development. Members would be residents of the basin, thereby insuring protection of the regional interest, and the commission's headquarters would be in the basin, insuring accessibility to the people of the valley.
The survey group said the com-
Vivian Rathke of Rockford said a letter from a Detroit soldier, Richard Timm, reported that Pfc. Fred R. Johnson, 21, Rockford, was one of the men killed in the explosion.
In Rockford, Ill., a soldier's letter from Korea said three men were killed and five were wounded Feb. 2 in a mistake bombing behind the lines in the vicinity of T-Bone hill.
It was the second accidental bombing this year of UN positions by Allied planes. The first incident occurred Jan. 8 when Marine planes killed 14 Americans at an artillery battalion service battery nine miles behind the front.
Quiz Program Set For Faculty Club
Three faculty members and a faculty wife will be quizzed by their colleagues at the "Brainbusters" program to be held in the Faculty club at 5 p.m. Sunday.
Members of the club will bring questions for the panel of "experts", consisting of Dean Harold G. Barr of the School of Religion; Charles Oldfather, assistant professor of law; Mrs. W. H. Shoemaker, wife of the chairman of the Romance languages department, and George B. Smith, dean of the University.
The daughter for whom Mrs. Hollingsworth stole will not be with her mother when sentence is passed. Jill Hollingsworth is in Hollywood where two weeks ago she signed a contract with the Ken Murray television show—the first step in fulfilling her mother's fondest dream.
The program is patterned after the "Brainbusters" radio show broadcast over station KFKU for the last four years. Dean Smith and Prof. Telelf were regular members of the panel of "experts" for the radio program.
The moderator is Emil L. Telelf,
associate professor of journalism.
J. A. Burzle, professor of German,
and Mrs. Burzle, are the hosts
