Many UN Candidates For Trygve Lie's Post
United Nations, N.Y.—U.N.P.)—Trygve Lie's dramatic resignation as secretary-general "to save the peace" left the United Nations today with a wealth of candidates to succeed him.
But none possessed a guarantee of the big-power support necessary to insure election to succeed the 56-year-old Norwegian, who told the General Assembly yesterday.
"I am stepping aside now because I hope this may help the UN to save the peace and to serve better the cause of freedom and progress for all mankind."
The announcement apparently surprised the delegates.
The first tangible reaction from any of the big five powers—who must agree on Lie's successor—could not be expected until British Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden speaks in the General Assembly.
Leading the field in speculation about who would succeed Lie was Brig. Gen. Carlos P. Romulo, Philippines ambassador to Washington. Romula had been regarded as a likely choice in the election of a secretary-general scheduled for next year. This year he is serving as chairman of the administrative and budgetary committee, a post regarded as an apprenticeship for the
Mentioned with Romulo as possible successors were assembly president Lester B. Pearson, Canada's external affairs minister; former assembly presidents, Luis Padilla Nervo of Mexico and Nasrollah Entezam of Iran; K. P. S. Menon, Indian ambassador to Moscow, and Charles A. Malik, Lebanon's widely-known philosopher.
secretary-general's office.
Shades of Edgar Allen Poe Walking Sticks' Come to KU
But all of these had big powet obstacles to overcome. Russia would not likely accept a nominee whose country has troops in Korea. This possibly would eliminate Romulo and Pearson. U.S. public and official opinion was known to be lukewarm toward any Mexican or Indian candidate, and Britain appeared sure to oppose an Iranian. That left only Malik, and few figured he had enough strength to win an election.
Shades of Edgar Allen Poe! The entomology department now has on display some overgrown insects that would give any non-drinking person the screaming meemies if encountered unexpectedly in the dark.
These pint-sized monsters are now pinned for display in a case just outside the entomology office in Snow hall. They are eight "walking sticks" from New Guinea which have just been received as exchanges.
The largest one measures over 10 inches from forelegs to the tip of the abdomen, $7\frac{1}{2}$ inches along the body, and with an extended wing spread of 7 inches.
Under UN procedure, the General Assembly elects a secretary-general on recommendation of the Security Council.
These incongruous-looking creatures resemble fallen twigs—until on close inspection they walk away—hence the name. They could apply be called the Ichabod Cranes of the insect world.
Walking sticks are relatives of grasshoppers, mantids, and roaches. There are much smaller species in Kansas. The biggest Kansas specimen in the Snow Entomological collection is $4 \frac{1}{2}$ inches long and comes from the oak forests near Garnett. Prairie walking sticks are numerous in the western part of the state.

"Walking sticks live on vegetation, typically in trees," Dr. Charles Michener, chairman of the entomology department, said. They drop their eggs to the forest floor, and if they are abundant enough the egg-dropping process "can sound like rain." he added.
Four fat ones in the display aren't as ambitious as their tree-climbing cousins and are content to eat moss on the ground.
Other visitors at the entomology department are three giant cockroaches from Venezuela-alive and apparently enjoying themselves.

Over two inches long, these cockroaches live in hollow trees and caves in their native Panama and are unique in that no bad odor is associated with them. More refined than their relatives in this country, perhaps.
These specimens were obtained from the Bronx zoo where they are used to feed reptiles. An "apartment house" has been prepared for them in a box so that humidity and temperature can be kept about right.
The department is interested in getting a colony started for use as laboratory insects for studies in insect physiology, testing insecticides, and similar purposes.
The cockroaches, two females and a male, have been here about a month but no eggs have been forthcoming.
Members of Gen. Eisenhower's growing staff here did not want to talk about the Korean trip for security reasons, but there were indications he would leave shortly after his talks with President Truman in Washington next week.
Augusta, Ga.—(U.P.)-President-elect Dwight E. Eisenhower probably will spend Thanksgiving with American troops on the front line.

South Korea Increases Forces
This was during the height of the U.S. election campaign controversy over the use of South Korean forces. A few days before, Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower had publicized a letter from Gen. Van Fleet stating Washington had ignored his repeated requests for authority to increase Korean forces.
It was learned from other sources that Gen. Van Fleet received orders from Gen. Mark W. Clark's headquarters to activate the new units on Nov. 2.
Tokyo—(U.P.)—Gen. James A. Van Fleet announced today that he strengthened the South Korean army to the equivalent of four new divisions last Saturday, only six days after receiving an "okay" from higher headquarters.
He said the new divisions may be used eventually to reduce American units in the line, but not immediately. It will be several months before the new units are ready for combat duty. He also told newsmen that he has more South Korea divisions were under consideration in Washoutton.
Gen. Van Fleet said the UN army is growing stronger and is now "in better shape today that it has been in a long time." "The Communist armies are in worse condition than they have been for a long time," he added.
Asked about his plans to retire, Gov. Van Fleet said only: "I am subject to military orders. So far as I know, my status now is the same as when I first came over."
Fine arts students interested in jewelry making and industrial design will find the demonstration of shell-molding to be given at 7:30 p.m. tonight in Fowler shops of interest to them.
The demonstration of shell-molding, a new type of industrial casting, is being sponsored by the American Society of Tool Engineers.
Molding Process Showing Tonight
Richard Harold, head of Borden Milk company's foundry division will make the demonstration and answer all questions regarding the process.
All engineering students, faculty members, and the general public are invited to attend the meeting.
In giving Dwight D. Eisenhower three states and the heaviest popular vote in history, they said, the south was rebelling against policies of the Truman administration.
Atlanta—(U.P.)—Southern observers expressed doubt today that the Republicans can hold their new beachhead in once "Solid Dixie" after "Trumanism" is no longer an issue.
This dissension was given a terrific boost by the tremendous personal popularity of the nation's new President-elect in the south and was coupled with comparatively new issue-tideland oil.
In a popular vote, that almost tripped that of former President Herbert Hoover's previous best GOP showing in 1928, the Republicans swept Florida, Virginia, and Texas, and were close in Tennessee and Louisiana.
Florida Democratic national committee Richard D. Barker looked upon the election as a "major operation" that was needed to remove a cancerous growth from the Democratic party."
Comment by the South's political leaders on the election contained few outright suggestions of the Republican foothold developing into full-fledged second party status.

But equally as basic as southern objections to the administration's "big government" and "fair dealing" aspects was the South's century-old tradition of Democratic viewpoint.

Museum Staff Study Crane
The body of a rare whooping crane, which died under treatment at the San Antonio (Texas) zoo has been returned to the Museum of Natural History to be used for scientific studies.
The bird, one of 18 known whoooping cranes in the country, will be stuffed and put on display in the museum, Dr. E. R. Hall, director of the museum, said. The internal organs will be removed for numerous special tests.
The crane was first found with a broken wing. 10 days ago near Sharon, Kan., by Thane Robinson, graduate student making a game bird survey. The bird was being taken to the Aransas, Texas, wildlife refuge of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife service, where it was hoped that she could be mated to a male bird there.
The bird died of a lung congestion.
KU Wildlife Artist Began Career Early
Augusta, Ga.—(U.P.)—Construction work was resumed today at the vast Savannah river atomic project where a short strike of less than 200 electricon engineers idled an estimated 29,000 employees yesterday.

"I began drawing about three in the afternoon," he said. "The subject was so fascinating that it was dawn the next day before I finished and realized I had worked all night."
The next day the instructor
I used to draw pets and other animals when I was a small boy," Mr. Grossenhieder said, "but became discouraged because my pictures never looked as good as those drawn by the professionals. It did not occur to me to consider my age and experience.
Mr. Grossenhieder started his study of natural history as a fill-in at the University of Michigan. One day a sketching instructor asked the students to draw any subject they wished. He chose as his model a great horned owl.
An assignment in a charcoal sketching class started Richard P. Grossenhieder, wildlife artist for the Museum of Natural History, on his now famous career.
praised the sketch as professional work. Encouraged, Mr. Grosenhieder began painting with the prominent nature artist George M. Sutton.
At the same time he is working on plates to illustrate a popular edition of "The Mammals of Kansas," by Dr. E. R. Hall, director of the Museum of Natural History.
Mr. Grossenhieder is now at work on color plates of several small animals recently brought back from Alaska by a field expedition.
Mr. Grossenhieder claims the lot of a wildlife artist is usually not a very exciting one. However, it became very exciting for him on several occasions during the last war in New Guinea, where he served as a sergeant.
On one occasion his quest for animals to sketch found him standing with one shell in his rifle only a few yards from a wild boar. He fired as the animal charged and it
dropped into the bushes in front of the artist, wounded.
Since returning from the South Pacific, Mr. Grossenhieder has received assignments from Life magazine and the Wilson bulletin. At present he is working on a series of color plates for the National Geographic magazine.

will prove no less "temporary" than that of 1928, when Mr. Hoover carried Florida and four other southern states.
"I believe the Republican party will continue to be the minority party," he said.
Gov. Robert F. Kennon of Louisiana, who openly supported Gen. Eisenhower, said the southerners had defected "temporarily" and would be ready to rejoin their party as soon as a "true Jeffersonian" candidate appears.
Southern Democrats who supported the GOP candidate outright declared they had no intention of letting any Republicanism rub off on them during the next four years.
Murray's Body Brought Home
Pittsburgh — (U.P.) The body of CIO president Philip Murray lay in state today in a funeral home less than 50 miles from the coal mine where he started his union career as a young immigrant from Scotland.
"Fighting Phil" came back to the city of his triumphs shortly after midnight.
More than 300 persons crowded the concourse of the Pennsylvania station to pay tribute to the self-educated man who worked his way up to the presidency of the 9,000,-000-member CIO.
The coffin was wheeled from the baggage car to a litter about 400 feet away. A hearse took Mr. Murray's body to the funeral home where it will remain until Thursday, when funeral services will be conducted at St. Paul's cathedral.
The services originally had been planned for Mr. Murray's own parish, the Church of the Resurrection, but within a few hours following his death in San Francisco Sunday, it became apparent the little church could not hold the throngs of mourners.
A dozen policemen were assigned to watch the crowd at Pennsylvania station. The usual bustle was stilled when Mr. Murray's body arrived.
Honorary pallbearers at his funeral will include Secretary of Labor Maurice J. Tobin and almost a dozen United States senators and congressmen.
Only a few hours earlier President-elect Dwight D. Eisenhower, against whom Mr. Murray had campaigned vigorously, had issued a statement praising him as an "effective force in the labor movement of our country."
