Korean armistice as hundreds of

Gation divided.
Even as Koreans surged wildly
through the streets of Seoul, Allied
and Communist teams met in the
einy truce hut at Panmunjom for
q minutes amid increasing signs
that an armistice may be signed
within the week.
Although an Allied spokesman
gave no hint Of what took place in
the hut, the briefingS of the meet
ing indicated that only finishing
touches remained before a cease
IRE agreement was reached.
Lower level officers assembled
after the plenary session--possibly
TO iron out the wording of the docu-
rnent that would call a halt to the
bloody three-year-old war.
The Reds asked the recess in

Humphrey Bogart Defends The

= HOLLYWOOD IN - This one

This week a gossip columnist ran
the news that Humphrey Bogart's

were up in arms about the night

complainer has even put his house

him for comment. His reply: II

by the dogs, her ears are super

The World Today
BY JAMES MARROW

WASHINGTON Up - The Repub-
licans, who for 20 years have been
complaining about the spending
habits of Presidents Roosevelt and
Truman, now get what they've
been asking fora chance to show
what they can do.
Today Truman presents to Con-
gress his budget, his estimate Of
what it will cost to meet the gov
ernment's expenses for the fiscal
year beginning July /, 1858.
When Gen. Eisenhower takes
over the presidency he can make
some recommendations of his own,
perhaps suggesting less spending
than Truman thinks is necessary.
1t won't be as though Essen
hover were entirely new in the
field and had to start from scratch.
The man he has picked for his
own budget director, Detroit bank
er Joseph NJ. Dodge, was kept in
formed in recent weeks about this
budget.
Even so, Eisenhower won't be
able-there's not enough time-to
make recommendations anywhere
nearly as detailed as those put to-
gether by Truman. The latter has
been working on them for months.
As usual with any president,
Truman began the project late last
summer.
It's always an arduous task. The
heads Of departments, bureaus.
agencies and commissions put their
staffs to work. figuring how much
money they would need for the
fiscal year starting next July J.
The whole budget, packed with
detailed expense figures, fills q
volume as big as the biggest city's
telephone directory.
With this budget and any rec.
concentrations Eisenhower makes.

Teacher Fired
For Installing
Kissing Game

PRINCESS ANNE, Md. u -
"Gee, / hope we don't have to
play postoffice again today" one
seventh grader told her mother 20
she left the house for school.
81 kissed IL girls IN school to-
day." a 12-year-old boy proudly
told his nom.
These sort of statements abrupt
" changed Louis L. Pund Jr.'s
occupation from a math and sci
ence teacher to an out-of-work
musician.
The mild-mannered Pung, who
said he was an ordained minister,
resigned yesterday from the facul-
ty of Washington High School in
this quiet community on Mary
lands eastern shore and headed
today for Baltimore to find job
footing his trumpet.
Pund was asked to resign for
installing a game of postoffice-a
kissing game-in his two classes.
He explained its purpose was to
break down his students inhibi-
tons because he feared they were
too shy.
The game was played last Mon
day and Tuesday.
1t work this way:
One boy or girl would 90 into
the small cloakroom-about three
feet deep and eight or 10 feet long
and would call in che Of the oppO-
site sex. Then the door was closed.
Pund explained that the young
sters, IL and Is years old, had
four choices. They could kiss on
the lips, kiss the others hand,
shake hands or refuse to play at
all.
He said he thought of it before
the Christmas vacation, when the
students appeared to be restless.
He tried it out when they returned
this week to classes.
AT first" Pund explained, "a
lot of them didn't want to play
it. But the next day practically
all the students wanted to play.
There was one boy who didn't, 90
he opened and closed the cloak
room door,"
A parent said his youngster told
him the teacher supplied the sound
effects while the boy and girl were
in the closet by puckering his lips
and sucking air into his mouth.
Losing the job didn't seem to
bother Pund too much. In a way,
he appeared almost relieved.
He said he was going TO concen-
trate on his first love-music-by
joining a dance orchestra in Raltl-
more or New York.
II hope never to teach again."
he said fatty.
Pnnd explained that he had felt
1t necessary that he take up a pro-
fession because his parents and
two brothers and one sister were
professional people"
81 figured if | didn't take up a
profession, like teaching. I'd be the
black sheep In the family. Now |
guess they'll just have TO accept
me as just a musician"
Pund, 20 years old, Is married
and has young daughter. They
live near Philadelphia, where his
wife works in an insurance office.
This was Funds first year al
Princess Anne. His record showed
he was on the Lycoming College
faculty in Williamsport, Pa. in
1946-47 and was a substitute In
structor at Texas Christian Uni
versity in 1919.
