UN Troops Alerted in Congo
LEOPOLDVILLE, The Congo — (UPI) The slaying of Patrice Lumumba took on an air of martyrdom today and United Nations forces alerted their troops throughout the Congo against the possibility of mass reprisals by his leftwing supporters.
His supporters were expected to use his death as a new rallying cry to oust the pro-Western central government of President Joseph Kasavubu.
The Congo is broke, hungry and disorganized. Only the presence of the UN force has kept it from disintegrating and Secretary General Dag Hammarskjold has warned he may have to pull the troops out if a civil war erupts.
Meanwhile in Katanga, the government shrugged off world reaction to Lumumba's death and served notice it would not allow an enquiry commission to see his grave.
Dean Appoints Court Chief Justice
Gene H. Anderson, Belleville law student, has been appointed chief justice of the student court by F. J. Moreau, acting dean of the school of law.
Anderson will preside over the six-member court which hears cases concerning parking offenses, election procedures and other student matters.
The following law students are members of the court:
members of the court.
Robert E. Edmonds, Lawrence,
and Philip L. Bowman, Hutchinson
third year students; Dick R. Jones,
Lawrence; John E. Hurley, Wichita,
and Joel A. Sterrett, Topeka, second year students.
It appeared certain Katanga President Moise Tschombe would not permit a full scale international investigation into the circumstances of Lumumba's death.
Lumumba's Death Excites World
(Continued from page 1)
Western observers in Moscow believed the Soviets would press a campaign against Belgium that would expand into an overall condemnation of the entire U.N. program in the Congo. The observers felt the Communists also would use Lumumba's death as a pretext for a renewed drive to discredit the white man in the eyes of the Afro-Asian bloc.
GAMAL ABDEL NASSER SAID the event will "agonize the conscience of mankind." The U.A.R. deputy minister for presidential affairs, Abdul Kader Hatem, who released Nasser's statement, said the "assassination" would mean "the beginning of a new phase of the African struggle for freedom."
Carl Lande, assistant professor of political science, will speak at the Humanities Forum tomorrow at 7:30 p.m. in the Oread Room of the Kansas Union. His subject will be "Kinship and Politics in Non-Western Countries." Prof. Lande, who is new on the KU faculty this year, spent several years doing research and teaching in the Far East. His talk is open to the public.

JERUSALEM, (Israeli Sector) —(UPI)—The war crimes trial of accused former Nazi executioner Adolf Eichmann has been postponed from mid-March until about April 10, reliable sources said today.
Eichmann Trial Postponed
The sources said Eichmann's attorney, Robert Servatius, informed Justice Minister Linhas Rosens Sunday it would be difficult to complete defense preparations even before the later date.
He said the defense preparations were complicated by the necessity of studying the prosecution's massive documentary evidence in its case
against Eichmann, accused of responsibility for the mass murders of Jews in Nazi concentration camps.
