RED REQUEST PUZZLES UN

Tokyo R - The United Ma tions command tonight agreed to a Communist request to send a liaison team tomorrow to the Kaesong neutral zone, site of the suspended Korean war arm istice talks.
 The Reds made the request shortly after the JUN. command announced that four unarmed South Korean soldiers yester- day mistakenly entered the neu- tral zone.
 The Red request for a meeting raised speculation that the Com munists may want to discuss resumption of the stalled talks, or they may want to lodge an other charge of Allied violation of the neutral zone.
 The Reds asked for a meeting with Allied liaison officers at Panmunjom, Communist outpost near the edge of the neutral zone, at 6 am. Thursday Q1 am. Wednesday Seward time).
 Tone of the notes exchanged between the Reds and Allies re- gently has been moderate, a U.N. command release said.
 The Reds had charged that the incident was a violation of the Kaesong neutral zone.
 The UN. command took a lighter view.
 It said the four, members of an anti-epidemlc unit, were armed with nothing more dan gerous than DOT"
 The command said the South Koreans were mot nistreated during their overnight stay in Kaesong, nor were their items of equipment confiscated or damaged"
 Their truck also was released by the Reds,

UL Pluns Presented
To College Groups

The Urban League program for
improving race relations and OBJ
tanning equal opportunities for all
citizens was explained to student
groups at Oregon State College,
Corvallis, Thursday in talks by
Edwin C. Berry and John S. Hol-
ley, Executive and Neighborhood
secretaries, respectively, of the
Urban League of Portland.
The Urban League officials WIS.,
tied the campus at the invitation
of Round Table, a joint YMCA-
YWCA student forum of which
Paul Book is executive secretary.
Speaking before a luncheon
gathering of students and faculty
members, Berry reviewed racial
practices in colleges of the North
west. He called attention to the
rapid progress made in race rela-
lions at csc, as reflected in the
achievements of several outstand-
ing Negro students, but added that
the notion generally persists that
Negroes are still not accorded the
same opportunity to participate
in basketball at csc as are the
white students.
The principal event was an af-
ternoon forum in Memorial Union,
at which Berry listed reasons why
the Portland civil rights ordi-
nance did not gain majority OF
favorable votes in November and
analysed the implications for the
Portland community and its lead
ers. Berry also talked to two OF
the social science classes of DR..
Frank Parks and a criminology
class under DIR. Robert Damn.
Holley spoke on race relations
to two of DR.. DAMS morning
classes and Paul Books
afternoon class in social ethics.

Stote Nursing Schools
Welcome Students

Oregon schools of nursing well
come applications from Negro
students desiring to go into nurse
training, it is indicated by recent
statewide survey conducted by
the Urban League of Portland.
Only two Negro nursing stu
dents were to be found in training
during the current school year,
both in the University of Portland
College of Nursing. In addition,
however, two students are enrolled
in the pre-nursing program at
vanport College.
Jon S. Holley, Neighborhood sec
rotary of the Urban League, states
that the response from the various
nursing schools shows a desire to
enroll more students of good nurs-
ing potentiality, regardless of race.
Also, there is no indication of dis
elimination in the placing of
graduate nurses in Portland hos
pitfalls.
Nursing is one of the profess
sions in which Negro workers are
rapidly gaining acceptance on a
basis of equality" Holley points
out, land there is an acute short
age of trained nurses in Oregon,
as elsewhere throughout the Unit
ed States. The several trained
Negro nurses in Portland have
made outstanding records, and
there is opportunity for many
more"
Nurse training in Oregon is Of
