During the rainy seasons the cracks in walks be came canals joining many lakes of water. "We want to get people where they want to go," said Mr. Fowler. The new sidewalks were designed to provide the shortest distance between Bes sey, Andrews, Morrill and Bur nett halls and the carillon tower. Diagonal walks and crosswalks eliminate the need for walking on the grass. An extensive underground wa ter system was put in early in the summer. Black top-soil was purchased and put on top of the sandier sub-soil. At the present the workers are seeding the lawns in this section. Mr. Fowler said, "The quad rangle has been designed by the building and grounds department to be one of the most beautiful parts of the campus." The plans are part of a future project for beautification of the area from Love Library, to the carillon tow er. The next step is to move the temporary buildings and land scape that area. Before Christmas a four foot stone wall will be built around the carillon tower. Bessey hall and Morrill hall wil be con nected to the tower by the wall. Materials have been ordered and work will begin as soon as the stone arrives. Approximately $45,000 is being spent to make this quadrangle serviceable and beautiful. "The vista from the tower to the library, a setting of plants and shrubbery, will be breath-taking," said Fowler. The entire project should be fin ished in the spring.

British Technicians ABADAN, IRAN The 330 British oil technicians left in Abadan have taken matters into their own hands and re fused, as they put it, to be pawns in the oil crisis talks. Since Iran ordered these ex perts out of the country, the men have been living almost in peril of their lives. They have now asked to be evacu ated on the British warships anchored off shore from Aba dan, rather than await the wrath of the Iranians. Meanwhile, a new threat Reds Issue Accusation TOKYO The Red Pyong yang radio has lashed out at American efforts to reopen the cease fire talks at Kae song. The Communists charge that the UN forces are wreck ing the talks by preparing for an amphibious landing or landings on North Korean coasts. To allied officers in Tokyo who have spent the last three months listening to Red charges of one kind and an other, this is a new one.

This announcement came at the conclusion of Operation Cirrus, air war exercises which were conducted last week end over Europe to test the efficiency of allied fighter defense and bombing tech niques. Refuse To Be Pawns develops in that the British may try to impose a blockade of the Abadan area to prevent the Iranians from shipping oil to any overseas government. The leader of the Iranian na tionalist party has stated that any such act would be "the beginning of hostilities." The latest developments are no consolation to jumpy diplo mats at UN headquarters in New York, who have been sweating out the crisis for months. Against UN Forces only disquieting thing about the announcement is that it is possible that we are planning some sort of surprise action for use if the talks are called off. According to some observ ers, the Reds had advance in formation on the landing of the first cavalry division at Pohong in the early stages of the Korean war. This fact sug gests that there might be se curity leaks somewhere in the Pacific command again. Breeds Resentment the Press Managing Editors convention in San Francisco last week issued a protest. President Truman, however, hag said that he has no inten tion of revoking the order. The Russia newspaper, "Iz vestla," has jumped at the chance to make propaganda hay and describes the order as similar to Hitler's tactics.
