Thieves Break Into Home
Thieves entered the home of H. A. Ireland, professor of geology, and took more than $1,000 worth of clothes and jewelry Sunday night.
Mrs. Ireland said today that the family had left the house before dark Sunday afternoon and when they returned at 10 p.m. they found a trail of coathangers leading from the house to the street.
The thieves took all of the clothes belonging to a son, Jim Ireland, engineering freshman, Mrs. Ireland said. Among the articles taken were a new tuxedo and a new typewriter.
Also missing were two overcoats and a sport jacket belonging to Mr. Ireland; a suit jacket belonging to Mrs. Ireland; and all of the jewelry belonging to a daughter, Virginia, College junior. An heirloom watch, attached to the suit coat, was also taken.
A baby sitter across the street from the house reported to police that she saw an automobile parked with the lights off in front of the house at approximately 8:30 p.m. It believed that the burglary occurred at that time.
The thieves entered the house by breaking the glass in a rear door and reaching through the opening and unlatching the door.
The theft is being investigated by the Lawrence police department and the Douglas county sheriff's office.
Police did not take any fingerprints of the door knobs or doors through which the thieves entered the house according to Mrs. Ireland.
The loss was not covered by insurance.

Tank Columns Trap Thousands of Reds
Tokyo—(U.P.)—Two American tank columns sprang a trap on thousands of entrenched Reds seven miles south of Seoul today and were reported killing them "wholesale."
On the western front, the 8th Army's "limited" offensive below Seoul went into its 13th day with at least two columns from the biggest armored concentration of the war stabbing deep into the Communist rear for the second straight day.
The advance already had carried six miles north of Hoengsong, overrun the villages of Haktam and Chowon and reached a point 50 miles due east of Seoul and 28 miles south of the 38th parallel.
U. S. 10th Corps tanks and infantry drove another two miles north today along central Korea's mountainous spinal column in a new assault flanking Seoul.
The two tank columns gave the Chinese Communists their worst pasting on what should have been a big day for them—Chinese New Year's day.
The armored task forces struck out north into enemy-held hills just above Anyang in parallel formation, then swung in toward each other to close a trap on deeply entrenched Chinese and North Korean Reds.
B-29 Superfortresses smashed at Kangge, a key enemy base on the Chinese supply and reinforcement route just south of the Manchurian border, with 240 tons of 500-pound explosive bombs today. It was one of the heaviest air raids in recent weeks.
F-80 Shooting Star jet fighters blasted a Russian-built T-34 tank just north of Namchonjom on the Pyongyang-Seoul highway. It was the 11th Red tank destroyed or damaged in the past week.
The 8th Army ushered in the Chinese New Year's day on the western front with a gigantic bombardment of the Chinese lines below Seoul. At the stroke of midnight, every Allied big gun and mortar and warships offshore fired simultaneously into the Red defenses.
Then at dawn, a voice from the sky called upon the Chinese to surrender and become free men. The voice came from a loud speaker-equipped C-47 circling over the front.
In the past two days alone, the advancing United Nations forces have killed or wounded 16,643 Communist troops, an 8th army communique disclosed.

More than 8,000 persons have attended the "World in Crisis" lectures in Wichita, Colby, and Dodge City, Guy V. Keeler, director of the lecture course bureau, has announced.
8,000 Hear 'Crisis' Lectures
In Wichita more than 700 persons requested tickets for admission to the auditorium, which seats 550. In Colby, capacity crowds of 1,000 have listened to the first three lectures. More than 1,000 attended each of the first three in Dodge City.
These lectures, modeled after the "Crisis" course given at the University last semester, have been excellently received, Mr. Keeler said.
"We feel that a great contribution is being made by the University in
the dissemination of available information at K.U. to widely scattered areas of the state," Mr. Keeler said. He reported that many requests to bring the series to other cities have been received.
The entire series are set up and directed by the bureau of lectures and concert artists, directed by Mr. Keeler.
Admission to the lectures is free. Like those presented at K.U. each talk lasts for 50 minutes and is followed by a question-and-answer period. These periods have been so enthusiastically received that limits have been placed on their length.
There are seven lectures. Each is delivered in the three cities on successive Wednesdays. They include: "The World on Your Doorsteps" by Chancellor Malott; "From World
In Wichita the series are presented by the University Extension Club. In Colby they are supervised by R. L. Dennen. The City Education Council in Dodge City is presenting them there.

Truckers Told To Move Mail
The order was designed to try to
maintain freight stalled by the rail
strike.
Washington — (U.P.) — The Defense Transport administration today ordered the nation's truckers to carry the mail and freight for the armed forces and the Atomic Energy commission ahead of all other goods.
The strike ended in the East today and there were signs that western switchmen also would heed Defense Mobilizer Charles E. Wilson's plea to return to work.
Members of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen reported for duty by the thousands at New York, Philadelphia and other eastern cities.
Railroads hurried them into the yards to clear the unprecedented jam of idle freight and passenger cars which had piled up since the strike started a week ago today.
Railroad officials said Mr. Wilson's radio appeal last night apparently "did the trick" of getting the men back on the job and train wheels rolling once more.
Mr. Wilson acknowledged that the rail workers are entitled to fight for better wages and working conditions, but said that patriotic Americans in periods like the present must stay on the job and seek peaceful solutions to their labor disputes.
Mr. Wilson's plea was supported by president Kennedy of the trainers' brotherhood, who predicted that his members would heed the national need.
But even if the strike should end throughout the country today, it will take days for industry to regain full production, and some of the output lost during the walkout never will be restored.
