'U.N.C.L.E.' in limelight of international relations
HOLLYWOOD — (UPI) — Most actors limit their political activities to campaigning for a presidential candidate and let it go at that. But not Robert Vaughn, super-hero of "The Man From UNCLE" series.
Vaughn takes his politics all year round.
He is particularly involved with international relations and is an outspoken critic of Secretary of State Dean Rusk and President Johnson. He espouses an American null-out of Viet Nam.
HIS HEROES ARE Sen. Wayne Morse of Oregon and Sen. J. William Fulbright of Arkansas.
But Vaughn does more than talk about these things. He recently returned from Europe where he visited with ministry officials in Denmark, Sweden and Finland, seeking reaction to U.S. Asian policy.
"The general reaction was: 'When is the United States going to get out of Viet Nam and stop interfering with something that is none of its business?' and I agree with them," said Vaughn.
VAUGHN, WHO TAKES himself as seriously as a U.N. delegate, already has visited behind the Iron Curtain in Russia and East Berlin. Now he seeks a visa to China which he considers much put-upon by the American government.
"I HOPE to get a scholar's visa to China and stay there a month just out of curiosity," he said.
just but out of the "Ive already applied to the State Department but I don't know how long it will be. They'll probably give the first such visas to bonifae Asian scholars.
"TM INTERESTED in discovering the Chinese attitudes and politics regarding the United States."
The actor is a student, part time,
at the University of Southern Cali-
fia where he is working to-
ward a Ph.D. in the philosophy of
communications. This, he feels,
qualifies him to travel as a scholar.
Vaughn has interrupted his schooling, political studies, travel and television series to star in "The Venetian Affair" at MGM where his "UNCLE" show also is filmed.
He is dedicated to the idea that the Chinese had every right to invade the Indian border because the land originally belonged to China. He also advocates full diplomatic recognition of China and believes that country will soften its hard-line Marxist policy in 20 years or so.
Buddhist rally-
Continued from page 1 at his Camp David mountain retreat, meeting with Secretary of State Dean Rusk and Defense Secretary Robert S. McNamara.
KY PERSONALLY LED about 3,800 loyalist troops into Da Nang on Sunday, then changed commanders. He named Maj. Gen Huynh Van Cao, a Catholic, to replace Gen. Ton That Dinh, nominally a Catholic, as 1st Corps commander.
There were unconfirmed reports that troops of the 1st Vietnamese
Division commanded by Gen. Phan Xuan Nhuan were moving out toward Da Nang. Reports also said the 1st Division forces were digging in for possible fighting in their own backyard.
The appeal for the overthrow of Ky by the United States was broadcast over Radio Hue. It also urged the ouster of Chief of State Gen. Nguyen Van Thieu and went so far as to link the two Saigon junta leaders with the Communists.

TAVERNING AT J.R.P.
Men in Joseph R. Pearson Hall learned how to overcome spring thirst. They opened their own tavern "On Draft," where they spend the present warm days drinking "False-stuff."
Draft balk stops faculty from work
CHICAGO —(UPI)— University of Chicago faculty members and employees today refused to enter the administration building where a group of student antidraft demonstrators have set up an "information center."
A university spokesman said administrative tasks normally carried on in the building would be done elsewhere.
He said that although the demonstrators have opened the doors to all and removed all their antischool draffy policy placards, the university considers their presence in the building as "coercive."
He referred to about 20 students who have continued to occupy the building's main lobby since Friday night. They were left behind as a token force of about 400 students who took over the building for 54 hours in protest of the university's cooperation with the Selective Service System.
Poet to read here Friday
American poet Allen Tate will discuss modern literature and read from his works here Friday, May 20, at 4 p.m. in the Forum Room of the Kansas Union.

LITTLE MAN ON CAMPUS
"ED HAS EATEN HERE FOR TWO YEARS AN' YOU'VE NEVER HEARD HUM COMPLAIN ABOUT STUDENT UNION FOOD"
OKLAHOMA CITY — (UPI)— Bill Moyers, White House Press Secretary, has been making other commitments to avoid a confrontation with Southern Baptists who are up in arms over his recent watius performance, the Oklahoma Journal said today.
Watusi rouses Baptist wrath
Moyers, a native of Oklahoma and an ordained minister in the church, was to receive a "distinguished communications medal" May 25 at the Baptist national meeting in Detroit, the newspaper said.
"THE BIBLE BELT BAPTISTS' protest has resulted in Moyers making other commitments," the newspaper said in a copy-story.
"He said he was going to Saigon." The Journal quoted a Baptist official.
The newspaper said "non-dancing Southern Baptists sought to have Moyers' award withdrawn. They also wanted his convention speaking invitation cancelled."
Baptist officials were quoted as saying withdrawal of the award would have caused embarrassment to both Moyers and the church so the presentation will be
delayed until "the middle of the summer."
THE PUBLICATION said it had been announced earlier that Moyers would receive the award at the church convention and would sneak at the meeting.
Clarence Duncan, executive assistant to the convention's radio and television commission, said "the award was not for religious activity but for contributions to religious communication."
Advice for job seekers
This was the advice of Arno F. Knapper, assistant professor of business administration and director of the Business School Placement Eureau, in 1958.
Poise, ability to work with people, and appearance are the qualities for which employers look, he said.
Personality, not grades, is the single most important factor in selecting candidates for jobs.
