Ridgway Is Named To Replace Eisenhower
Washington - U.P.P.—President Truman today appointed Gen.
Matthew B. Ridgway as the new Supreme Allied commander in
Europe and named Gen. Mark W. Clark to replace Ridgway in the
Far East.
The nations of the North Atlantic Treaty organization unanimously approved Gen. Matthew B. Ridgway tonight as the new supreme commander of the Allied forces against Communist aggression in Europe.
Ridgway will succeed Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower, whose release as Supreme Allied commander in Europe will become effective June 1.
The North Atlantic council, meeting in Paris, asked Mr. Truman to designate an American and he chose Ridgway.
The president at the same time disclosed that at Ridgway's request, Gen. Alfred M. Gruenther will continue as chief of staff in Paris.
Clark, who will succeed Ridgway as head of the Far East command and commander in chief of U.S. Forces in Korea, is now command of the Army field forces, stationed at Fort Monroe, Va.
Mr. Truman sent Ridgway a message saving:
"The North Atlantic council has requested that I nominate an American officer for appointment by the council as Supreme Allied Commander, Europe, to succeed Gen. Eisenhower. I have nominated you for that position and the council has appointed you.
"You have my highest persona esteem and best wishes as you assume this great responsibility. I know that all our people will be fully and warmly behind you, as will all freedom loving people the world over.
"I am appointing Gen. Mark W Clark as your successor."
Japan Celebrates IndependenceDay
Tokyo—U.(P.)—Ancient temple bells of Japan's great cities and rural villages rang out the occupation tonight and heralded her return to independence as a new and equal partner among the world's free nations.
Prime Minister Shigeru Yoshida immediately promised to rearm against Communism.
A direct radio broadcast from Washington signalled formal ratification of the peace treaty at 10:30 p.m. (7:30 a.m. CST) and set off an explosion of merrymaking that rivalled a New Year's Eve celebration.
The U.S.-Japan security pact under which U.S. forces will remain here until Japan is able to defend herself, came into effect as the occupation ended.
The flag of the Rising Sun was raised alongside the Stars and Stripes over U.S. military bases, symbolizing the beginning of Japan's alliance with the nation which forged her defeat and reconstruction.

Maureen Kelley Is IFC Queen
Maureen Kelley, fine arts sophomore, was chosen Saturday as the queen of the 1952 Inter-fraternity council spring formal.
Miss Kelley was awarded a large trophy during the intermission of the formal. She was chosen by a committee of three Lawrence businessmen, who preferred to remain anonymous.
The formal was the climaxing event of the first annual Greek week, sponsored by the IFC. Other features of the week were a dinner for fraternity honor initiates, five discussion panels on aspects of fraternity and University life, and a speech by ex-Gov. Alfred M. Landon.
"We thought our first Greek Week turned out to be very successful, and came up to our expectations," Keith Maclvorn, IFC president, said last night. "We plan to continue the idea next year," he added.
MacIvor said much of the credit for the success was due to the efforts of Robert Ball, chairman of the committee in charge of Greek week preparations.
Ball and MacIvor plan to draw up a brochure on the week, and to include the many constructive suggestions which developed in the discussion panels.
