--the department of design will sponsor the March 27-28 conference here on high school art. April 9-10 are the dates of the petroleum engineering conference.
The massive aerial attack was aimed at Kymipo, a troop and supply concentration south of the North Korean capital. Fires touched off by bombs, rockets, napalm and bullets sent columns of smoke rising 5,000 feet into the sky.
Sabre jets screening the fighter-bombers from attack by MIG-15's probably destroyed one of the Russian-built jets and damaged two others in duels over MIG Alley.
The Kyomipo raid followed huge attacks against the Suiho reservoir on the Manchurian border and a powerful superfort attack on a Red supply depot eight miles northwest of Pyongyang.
Fighter-bombers from four Air Force wings and two Marine air groups took part in the raid. Other UN warplanes hit front line targets and smaller installations in North Korea.
Meanwhile, the Navy began its third year of a siege of the east coast port of Wonsan, the longest in UN naval history as the heavy cruiser Toledo and. the. destroyers Ulvert Moore .and. Wedderburn. started sending tons of explosives into supply positions.
The Navy heralded the beginning of the third year with a statement Saturday saying Wonsan has been "destroyed and effectively neutralized" by the siege imposed by the ships of nine nations.
Scattered patrol actions marked the ground war except on the western front where a Communist patrol trailed an Allied unit back to UN lines after a brief fight. UN artillery chased the Reds away 10 minutes later.
Roberts Causes Kansas GOP Fuss
Topeka — (U.P.)—The Kansas GOP today was a house divided by the furor raised over revelation that National Republican Chairman C. Wesley Roberts received an $11,000 fee in connection with sale of a building to the state.
Gov. Edward Arn supported President Eisenhower's expression of satisfaction with Mr. Roberts' explanation.
Former Gov. Alf M. Landon, the party's 1936 presidential nominee, felt the explanation did not please the people of the state. He called it a "ridiculous answer."
Mr. Roberts was paid $11,000 by the Ancient Order of United Workmen of Kansas for his part in the sale of a building to the state for $110,000. The money was appropriated by the 1951 legislature.
Republican state Sen. William D. Weigand, of LaCrosse, said he was not registered as a lobbyist as he should have been to receive a fee for helping negotiate the sale.
In Washington, Mr. Roberts has denied any wrongdoing. He said he merely asked the chairman of the 1951 House Ways and Means committee if it would consider the offer to sell its building on the grounds of the Kansas Tuberculosis hospital at Norton.
A field trip to Topeka is being scheduled for foreign students Thursday.
Foreign Students To Visit Topeka
Places to be visited are the Kansas museum, the State House, and the manufacturing plant of the Goodyear Tire company.
The group will leave from the information booth in front of the Journalism building at 8 am.
With the 1953 legislature in session, it will be an opportunity to see American government in action. All interested should register in the dean of men's office.
