GOP Invites Mac to Speak To Congress "There is a possibility that Gen. Douglas MacArthur mayj be back in the United States in a week to address congress, ac cording to House Republican Leader Martin. Republicans, whc are very up set about MacArthur's dismissal, have invited the general to ad dress a joint meeting of con gress and are sponsoring such a resolution. It will be consider ed by the house rules committee today and Martin said that he is sure that both the house and the wmmiUw will approve it. Martin isnt sure how the sen ate feels about the proposal, however. Senator Kerr of Okla homa, democrat, said that he be lieved that it would be unwise for the general to speak to con gress and he will try to prevent it. In case the democrats fight the resolution, republicans are thinking of renting a large hall for a party conference to which everyone would be invited. Martin talked to MacArthur by telephone and said that he is "ready and eager" to accept a congressional invitation. In formed sources in Tokyo. TRUMAN EXPLAINS HIS SITUATION, POLICY President Truman spoke to the American people Wednes day night and told them why he fired Gen. Douglas MacArthur. The president said that his policy is aimed at preventing a third World War and the poli cies of MacArthur are riot in agreement with those. "We do not want to see the conflict in Korea extended," he s.aid. "We are trying to prevent a world war not start one." He made it clear that if a threatened new mass offensive by the communists in Korea is crushed, the reds may decide elsewhere is folly." The president praised Ridg- ti-ay saying that as commander of the Eighth army in Korea he has shown the qualities of lead ership needed for his new job. Mr. Truman said that "icai ceace" could be obtained if three conditions are present: "One: The fighting must stop "Tu'v rv-ntvt stem must be taken to insure that the fighting .. . . . .....

Admission to the concert is by ticket only. These are free and are available in limited quantity at the activities office. Madrigals in English History Madrigal singing flourished back in the deays of William Shakespeare and Queen Elizabeth. At that time singing in "parts" was as indispensable to a family and household as radio, canasta and television are now. Any "lady" or "gentleman" who could not read a madrigal at sight was j considered a social outcast.

It Happened At NU Many University students were surprised and disgusted to find the door leading to the room in which their eight o'clock was beld firmly closed and locked Wednesday morning. A certain professor had be come rather tired of having his lectures interrupted by the con stant stream f students at 8:05 a.m. who couldn't quite get up in time to get to class at the tra ditional eight o'clock. A unique idea one that caught many students off guard one that might prove extrem ely effective. Jr.-Sr. Class Day ChangedjGive Plans for To April 20 Junior-senior class day has been postponed until Friday, April 20. Aaron Schmidt, chair man of the class day activities, stated that weather conditions forced the postponement The competitoin between junior and senior class members will be held in Pioneer park.

JAMES STEVENSON Friday, April 13, 1951 portions of the amendment ironed out and others left as ammunition for a constitutional committee next year. The only question during the Wednesday meeting centered around the technicality of wheth er the two weeks had elapsed be tween point of submitting an Ag Exec board amendment and the actual approval by the board. It was agreed that this require ment had been met through six previous sessions of all clubs dis cussing and altering the bill. In a nutshell, the amendment provides: Representation from any au thorized group on Ag campus. This includes religious, honorary, departmental and service groups. One member will be allowed for the first ten members average at tendance, and an additional mem ber for the next 50. There shall be two hold-over members elected from the Ag Exec board itself in the spring to serve the following fall. If after the next year's mem bers are chosen by the clubs, the ratio of men and women on the Ag Exec board is not the sar e as the ratio of men to worr.cn students enrolled in the colle.T, an election shall be held to fill the ranks. This election is de signed to act as a guarantee to ! the know" talk over the idea with J their friends and in their organ 1 izations prior to the election, in the hope that the entire student body will "get out and vote" and make an intelligent decision.
