Wade Stinson Gets Ormand Beach Award At The Downtown Quarterbacks' Banquet
BY BOB NELSON
BOW NELSON Wade Stinson, the Jayhawkers' 1950 record-breaking groundgaining right halfback, received the Ormand Beach memorial trophy, highest athletic award at the University, Monday night at the annual Lawrence Downtown Quarterback club's football banquet.
The Ormand Beach memorial trophy, given annually to the outstanding senior player, is presented to the University by Mrs. Beach in memory of her husband, one of K.U.'s all-time great backs, who was killed in an accident in 1939. Stinson was selected by his teammates to receive the trophy. Bud French,
four-letter halfback, received the honor in 1949.
Stinson was happy to receive the award and said, "There isn't a finer coach or group of teammates anywhere. It was their efforts that made possible any success I may have achieved."
He concluded by saying, "Thanks a lot gang."
Arch Ward, sports editor of the Chicago Tribune, was the guest speaker. Mr. Ward's interesting address stressed the need of sports in America today as our most important form of recreation and builder of competition.
He said, "The spirit of competition and individualism has made America great and athletics is symbolic of the American way of life. Not
one athlete has ever been known to have any fear of competition."
Mr. Ward, the nation's greatest sports promoter, said, "Most great athletes are good students and are modest about their fame."
Coach Sikes introduced his 1950 Jayhawk football team and praised the Quarterback club for its loyal and always co-operative support of the team.
Don Fambrough, freshman coach,
presented his squad to the group and
said, "I've never seen a better fresh
club anywhere. Their record wasn't
too impressive but, you'll hear a
lot from this group."
The meeting was concluded by the singing of the Alma Mater and the giving of the nation's most famous yell, "The Rock-Chalk-Jay-Hawk-KU."
WADE STINSON, the Jayhawkers' greatest ground gainer of all time, was selected as the outstanding senior football player by his teammates and presented the annual Ormand Beach memorial trophy Monday night at the annual football banquet.
Arch Ward (left), sports editor of the Chicago Tribune, was the guest speaker. Admiring Stinson's trophy, the highest athletic honor that a K.U. football player can receive, is Arthur C. "Dutch" Lonborg, athletic director. Mr. Lonborg presented the trophy to Stinson.
Stinson and McCormack still have one more football game to play this season. Stinson will play in the annual North-South Shrine game at Miami on Dec. 25. McCormack will play in the annual East-West shrine game at San Francisco on Dec. 30.
Red Forces Swell; Proposals To UN
UN Will Hear Proposals On Cease-Fire In Korea
Lake Success, N.Y.—U.P.)—Arab-Asian proposals for a cease-fire in Korea and a seven-nation peace conference on the entire Far Eastern crisis go before the United Nations today.
Hammered out in day-long conferences Monday among 13 Arab and Asian countries, the proposals, contained in companion resolutions, provide:
1. That general assembly President Nasrollah Entezam and two others serve on a commission to work out details of obtaining a cease-fire in Korea.
The resolutions will be put before the general assembly's political committee at 9:45 a.m. C.S.T.
2. That the assembly name seven nations to a peace commission to discuss a general settlement of the oriental crisis.
The proposals obviously were designed to be acceptable to both East and West, but neither side's position was clear beyond doubt. The United States has insisted that a settlement of the Korean war must not be linked with any other problem. This obstacle was overcome by putting the cease-fire proposal in a separate resolution.
A U.S. spokesman said the resolutions would be sent to Washington immediately to let the state department decide American policy. Britain endorsed the cease-fire proposition and was expected—unless the U.S. vehemently opposes it—to go along on the peace conference idea.
Communist China and Russia, on the other hand, have insisted that Mao Tze-tung's government must have an equal voice in deciding the explosive issues of the Far East—Formosa's future, recognition of the Peking regime, Red China's admission to the U.N., a Japanese peace treaty, and the problems of Indo-China.
It was assumed that if the assembly adopts the resolutions—and there was grave doubt that it would—Communist China would be one of the seven powers named to the peace commission.
Afghanistan, Burma, Egypt, India, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia. Syria, and Yemen will sponsor the second resolution. The Philippines will join them in sponsoring the fit
P. The cease-fire resolution will go before the assembly under the sponsorship of 13 countries. But Brig.-Cen. Carlos P. Fomulo, foreign minister of the Philippines, relied to support the peace commission plan. He said he had to consult his government.

Court Decision May Aid Reds
Washington—(U.P.)—Congress and the justice department sought to determine today how the war on subversives will be affected by a supreme court ruling that witnesses may refuse to answer questions about communist connections.
The opinion cited time-honored rulings dealing with the constitution's guarantee that a man cannot be compelled to testify against himself. This privilege extends to witnesses before congressional committees, grand juries, and elsewhere in the federal system.
The court held in a far-reaching unanimous decision Monday that a witness cannot be forced to reply if he pleads possible self-incrimination—that is, that he is likely to be prosecuted later on information disclosed by his answer.
Some here believed the communists may use the decision as a basis for refusing to register under the new McCarran Subversive control law on grounds that registration would constitute self-incrimination.
BULLETIN
Others viewed the ruling, as an obstacle to the anti-subversive efforts of congressional committees and said it might cut the ground from under several contempt cases now pending in the courts.
Washington—(U.R.)—P re s i dent Truman probably will make a radio report to the nation Friday or Saturday on a national emergency proclamation an d wake-price controls, informed White House sources said today.
Mongolian Cavalry Divisions Swell Communist Forces
Sigma Delta Pi Initiates Nine
Tokyo—(U.P.)-Two tough Mongolian cavalry divisions poured into Kra today as United Nations troops, outnumbered about two to need for a new assault by Chinese Communist hordes.
The new members of the society are Janet Brunet and Audrey Jolliff, instructors in Romance language; Jerome Mirsky, assistant instructor in Romance languages; James Benefiel, Ivy Linnell, and Carl Tonglert, all College seniors; Eduardo Betoret, graduate; and Marian Kysar Shaw, education senior. Miss Alice Van Buskirk, teacher in the McAllaster grade school in Lawrence, was accepted as an associate member.
Nine members and one associate member were initiated into Sigma Delta Pi, honorary Spanish society, at a banquet held Sunday in the English room of the Union building.
After the banquet, in a short business meeting, Dr. Chalmer Herman assistant professor of Romance languages, was named one of the delegates to the annual meeting of the American Association of Teachers of Spanish and Portuguese in New Orleans on Wednesday, Dec. 20.
USAF Exams To Be Given
An aviation cadet examination team will be in Lawrence Thursday to give physical examinations to all men who have passed the qualifying examination. Physical examinations will be given at 8 a.m. at the U.S. Army and Air Force Recruiting Station, 609 Massachusetts.
Any student interested in applying for aviation cadet or navigation training should contact Lt. Paul D. Sot J. D. Urbanek, or SFC L. S. Greene, the local recruiters, phone 575. The qualifying aviation cadet test must be successfully completed before physical examination may be given.
WEATHER
The Chinese broke off their assault in northeast Korea after the last of 20,000 encircled U.S. 1st division marines and 7th division infantrymen had escaped into the safety of the Hamhung-Hungnam behead.
KANSAS: Considerable cloudiness tonight and Wednesday. Occasional freezing drizzle southeast 'tonight.'
Correspondents were asked not to write about planned U.N. activities or those in progress, strategic enemy movements, the effectiveness of specific U.N. weapons or the activities or locations of U.N. troops unless they are in combat.
There was only scattered fighting between the Reds and U.N. forces but most of the Chinese Reds were advancing slowly south from the Pyongyang area, apparently in preparation for an attack on Seoul.
The entrance of the Mongolians on their sturdy horses brought the number of Chinese in the war to more than 300,000 men. Another 700,000 were believed in reserve in rear areas, while the U.N. had about 160,000 troops in Korea.
Much of the activity of U.N. troops was veiled by a security blackout in Korea. In Tokyo, Gen. Douglas MacArthur asked correspondents to abide by a voluntary censorship code, because of the "quite serious" war situation.
Future movements of the escaped forces and 40,000 other 10th corps troops were kept offshore, but a huge armada stood offshore for a "Dunkerque" evacuation, should that become necessary.
The communist planes broke off the engagement five minutes after they started it and fled across the Yalu river frontier into the safety of Manchuria. One Russian plane was damaged. None of the shooting stars was hit.
One of the biggest all-jet air battles of the war broke out near the Manchurian border when eight Soviet-built MIG-15's attacked four American F-80s over Sinuju, in northwestern Korea.
F-84 Thunderjets joined other planes of the 5th air force in bombing, rocketing, and strafing enemy targets throughout northern Korea. In 335 sorties, the Allied pilots claimed they killed or wounded 800 communists, attacked 18 towns suspected of harboring the enemy, and destroyed or damaged 70 buildings, 20 vehicles, 3 bridges and 1 supply dump.
One F-80 jet was lost. The pilot's fate was unknown.
