Sec. Rusk Urges Continued Talks
ATHENS — (UFI) — Secretary of State Dean Rusk told the NATO ministerial council today that contacts with the Soviet Union should be continued in hopes that some agreement can be reached on critical international problems.
Rusk addressed the council when it met for its first full-dress working session.
CONFERENCE sources said Rusk informed the ministers that the Russians have made no perceptible move toward agreement on Berlin or other major cold-war issues, but he believes the exploration of Soviet intentions should go on.
STIKKER CALLED on the 15-nation alliance to keep its forces strong, to adapt its strategy to that of its adversary, and to remain vigilant in the face of continued communist pressures throughout the world.
As the first speaker to review the international situation. Rusk reported on his recent series of talks with the Soviets and his plans to continue them with allied backing.
NATO Secretary General Dirk Stikker opened the conference with a warning that the communist threat to Berlin and other free world areas "has been warded off but not eliminated once and for all."
The Secretary of State addressed the NATO council's first full working session after a brief public opening in Greece's parliament building.
The Soviets, Rusk said, seemed impressed by the West's military buildup in the wake of the Berlin crisis.
NATO's chief spokesman, in reporting the speech, said Rusk told the council Russia had given indications it wants to continue talks with the United States but does not seem to be in any hurry.
'Boy Friend' Needs Male Singer-Dancer
Rusk added, however, that Soviet policies remained hard and said there was a stepped-up armament program in the communist world, notably in the nuclear field.
The role of Bobby Van Heusen, the male comic singing-dancing lead in the University Players' production "The Boy Friend," is open for try-outs, director Sidney Berger has announced.
Larry Sneegas, Lawrence senior, who played the role in Lawrence, Kansas City and Junction City since the show opened in the Experimental Theatre last December, is committed to the United States Navy for the summer.
Anyone interested in auditioning for the part should call Sidney Berger at his office in 356 Murphy Hall, phone KU 268. Applicants must be able to sing and to dance.
The summer performances of "The Boy Friend" are scheduled for June 8 and 9 in the University Theatre and for June 15 and 16 in Salina. Full rehearsals will begin June 5.
