Troop Inventory Set For Showdown
Lake Success. (UP)—The United Nations general assembly began its drive for Dec. 11 adjournment today with prospects of almost immediate showdowns on the proposed reports on allied armed forces and several major issues.
Interest centered today on the British delegation which has insisted that the troop inventory and world disarmament be considered simultaneously.
Throughout the weekend, the United States tried to bring together Britain and Russia. Failing a compromise, the United States planned to side with Britain.
The western countries were determined to tack onto the Soviet proposal an amendment requiring figures of troops at home as well as those abroad.

U.S. Reserve Fleet Has 1,717 Merchant Ships
Washington (UP)—The Maritime commission reported today that the U.S. reserve fleet now totals 1,717 merchant ships laid up for use in any future emergency.
The vessels are laid up in anchors on the Atlantic, Gulf, and Pacific coasts. Some are average, some will be sold but the bulk will remain permanently in reserve.
Trieste Issue Continues To Stall Big Four
New York. (UP)—The Big Four foreign ministers today launched what some observers termed their "make or break" week in efforts to clear the Trieste issue, approve the satellite peace treaties, and set the stage for German peace discussions.
Without agreement on Trieste the Italian peace treaty cannot be finished, and without an Italian treaty no final approval can be given to settlements for Rumania, Bulgaria, Finland, and Hungary.
'But Professor, I Tried'
Underclassmen Will See Advisers Today
Freshmen and sophomores with too many D's and F's, begin "facing the music" today.
Five hours of F or 40 per cent of a student's grades below C will prompt a report from the University to his parents, according to Gilbert Ulmer, assistant dean of the College.
A list of underclassmen with their individual advisers and counseling hours is posted on the College bulletin board in Frank Strong hall. The counseling period will extend through tomorrow and will be continued Monday and Tuesday of next week.
"Reports will not be mailed from the College office until after Wednesday," Dean Ulmer said, "and this will give students an opportunity to discuss the matter with their parents before reports arrive."
Juniors and seniors will have to look for solace elsewhere. No advisers are provided for them and reports of their mid-semester difficulties will be mailed to their Lawrence addresses.
So, if the postman doesn't ring when you sit down to that turkey dinner, it's really Thanksgiving.
Phi Gam's Win Karnival Kup
"Hurry, hurry, hurry! Step right up and see the greatest show on earth!"
That was the cry of the barkers at the carnival in the Military Science building Saturday sponsored by the Student Union activities. A crowd of more than 2,000 danced and played in the gymnasium decorated with crepe paper and ballons.
The Karnival Kup, the first to be presented since the war at the annual party, was given to Phi Gamma Delta for their Dr. Frankenstein show. Joan Woodward, Union president, presented the gold cup to Jack Reinhart, barker for the booth, at intermission.
Miller rall's "pimpsm" won second place honors and Tau Kappa Epison took third with a "Do you want to be a Paul Turner?" booth. Honorable mentions were won by Locksley hall's "baby show" and Pi Beta Phi's "I wanta get married" booth.
The money collected will go in the Student Union Activities fund and will be used for social activities.
Vacation Will Make K.U. A 'Ghost Town'
The campus will look like a "deserted village" during the Thanksgiving holiday with most students going home, visiting friends, or attending the K.U.-M.U. football game.
No campus activities are planned for the holidays, and the organized houses will be closed from Wednesday after lunch until Monday. Other student houses report that they also will be virtually empty during the holidays.
For those who remain on the campus the Union building and cafeteria will follow their regular schedules, but the fountain will be closed from 5:30 p.m. Wednesday until Monday morning.
For those who want to make use of the extra time "catching up" the library will be open every day except Thursday.

Eclipse Was Hazy But Storer Saw It
"It was hazy but I saw it," Prof. N. W. Storer, professor of astronomy, said in referring to the partial eclipse of the sun Saturday.
"Because of the clouds and the heat waves from the earth, I had difficulty timing it," he explained. "It was hard to tell exactly when the moon began to cut directly in front of the sun.
"My measurements were 16 seconds off at the beginning of the eclipse and eight seconds off at the end because of this haze, but at least I saw it."
