Czechs seek Moscow truce
Prague (UPI)—The Presidium of the Czechoslovak Communist party met Tuesday to consider sending a top-level delegation to Moscow to soothe Kremlin fears over a proposed party congress, Communist sources said.
The party sources said the Moscow meeting was considered because the Soviets had threatened to block the calling of a congress of the Czechoslovak Communist party scheduled for early October.
The Kremlin was said to fear strongly liberal delegates-supporters of national party leader Alexander Dubcek who would be able to solidify the already firm national resistance to the Soviet-led military occupation.
It was not known if the Presidium reached a final decision on making a trip to Moscow, the sources said, but they said a delegation made up of Dubeek, Slovak party chief Gustav Husak and Presidium member Josef Spacek was tentatively selected.
At the same time, the national writers union broadcast on television an angrily-worded protest against Soviet bloc "gross distortions and slander" against Czechoslovak writers.
The writers joined a growing intellectual protest started Monday by a group of economists who protested attacks on economic leader Ota Sik.
Another development saw Parliamentary president Josef Smrkovsky swear in 94 judges of special rehabilitation courts. The action put into practice a law to rehabilitate victims of the Stalinist terror trials which was started soon after the liberal regime took office last January. Smrkovsky said the law would prevent a return to "pre-January conditions."
And in other action, the country reopened its borders to foreign tourists and Czech sources said the Soviet occupation troops were under orders to "keep out of sight."
KU COED RELAXES
Tuesday afternoon's practice session of the KU football team drew many spectators like this KU coed who sat solemnly on the grass near the practice field at Allen Field House, including the Kansan staff photographer who took this picture. The practice even drew "roving spectators" who passed by the field on their way to the dorms on Daisy Hill.
