'Names In The News'
By CHARLES GOMON
Staff Newt Writer
JOHN STEWAET SERVICE was fired by the state depart
ment on the recommendation of the nation's highest loyalty
noard. service was head of the far eastern division of the de
partment. The board found that there was a reasonable doubt as
to Service's loyalty on the basis of the fact that he eave secret
documents to editor J alley of Amerasia magazine in 1945. Service
was cleared of similar charges on several occasions by the state
department s own loyalty board, but the high board reversed this
ruL'og.
Service has been the target of pro-communist charges for his
part in the U.S. policy toward China following World War II.
The 42-year-old diplomat is planning an appeal to President
Truman or the courts. Service has been in the department for
18 years.
JOHN HICKERSON, U.S. under-secretary of state, approached
the Swedish ambassador to ask if Sweden would act as one of
the neutral supervisors of the Korean truce talks if agreement
is reached there. The Norwegian and Swiss governments also
were alerted for possible roles on the supervisory commission.
BRIG. -GEN. KNUCKLES, U.N. negotiator at Panmunjom,
Korea, asked the communists to clarify their six point proposal
more fully. The proposal apparently agreed to limited rotation
of troops, a freeze on the number of men in Korea, and also
agreed to put the neutral inspection team under the armistic
commission.
CHIEF JUSTICE FRED VINSON is rumored to be the demo
cratic choice for president if President Truman decides not to
run. Neither has committeed himself on the issue.
SUMNER J. PIKE, sole remaining member of the original
U-S. atomic energy comission, resigned from the group. Pike was
President Truman's choice for the chairmanship of the commis
sion before the present chairman, Gordon Dean, was appointed.
Pike's appointment was withdrawn after senate opposition de
veloped. JUDGE THOMAS F. MURPHY came to Washington to con
fer with President Truman. Murphy, towering crimebuster from
New York, is expected to hold a key position in the "drastic
action" the president is contemplating concerning the tax scandals.
Rumor has it in the capital that President Truman plans to
set up an anti-crime commission to squash corruption in govern
ment, it is Known tnat Attorney General McGrath is in favor
of this solution, but wants the men on the commission designated
as "special assistant attorneys general," or in other words, under
his Jurisdiction.
Judge Murphy conducted a clean-up campaign in New York
to rid the police department of scandal.
Judge Murphy, who stands a mere 6 feet 4 inches tall, con
ducted a clean-up campaign of the New York police scandals
several months ago.
U.S. INTELLIGENCE OFFICERS are baffled and suspicious
of the loss of a navy patrol plane northwest of Japan. The plane
vanished without a trace despite the fact that an accurate fix
was made on the aircraft's position just before it disappeared.
The navy department is convinced that Russian radar follows
all patrol flights which we make in this area. Apparently this
particular plane was ambushed and disposed of since no debris
or bodies have been found.

COllfCC ENTRANCE QUESTION . . .
University Professors Comment On Requirements
If college entrance requirements
are abolished, several University
faculty members believe students;
will not receive adequate back
ground for college work.
The Nebraska association of
School Adiministrators suggested
the possibility of abolishing speci
fic entrance requirements in a
resolution adopted in Lincoln late
in November. Noel Lawrence,
president of the association, has
said that a committee h&s been
set up to study the problem.
Faculty members of the college
of Ails and Sciences have raised
the chief objections to the pro
posed change. j
Lawrence said that his group
did not quarrel In any way with
the requirements of three years
of English with social studies,
sciences or mathematics. They
want, he said, consideration for
use 8 to 90 per cent of students I Dean Earl S. Fullhrnrir nf the

go to college.
Lawrence suggested that the en
trance requirements of such uni
versities as those of Michigan,
Illinois, Wisconsin. Minnesota and
Colorado by examined.
However, Miguel A. Basoco.
chairman of the department of
mathematics and astromony, does
not think the schools mentioned
have satisfactory entrance re-i
quirements.
Wisconsin 's law. Basoco said,
led to the university's "stipul&t
iatlng that students couldn't reg
ister for study in most college
courses until the requirements
nere made up. The net effect
has been that the Wisconsin
secondary schools have pretty
much kept up the requirements
which were formerly set up by
the university." .
tion also defended the present
system of entrance requirements
"The purpose of the require
ments is not to set up hurdles for
tne student he said, "but to in
sure that the student will have the
background he needs to go on
with college work."
Kenneth Forward,, associate
professor of English said that
the adopiivd of the administra
tors' suggestion would probably
decrease the proportion of stu
dents In English 3. the real
freshman English course. He ,
also believed that the number of
beginning students in English

crease. The chairman of the depart
ment board of entrance exams
which shwed. he said, thai there
is an increasing -number of stu
dents dropping out of college be
fore the year graduated. In col
leges with high entrance require
ments, he said, it has been found
that only about 10 per cent drop
out before graduation.
In history, he said, the poof stu
dents are usually those who were
not exposed to the subject in high
schooL
Dr. George W. Rosenlof, dean
of admissions, blamed a misun
derstanding in terminology for
the dispate, such ao tbe word,
"deficiency," which has been
attacked as "psychologically bad
for the students.'
He said the University will ac

of their class who are short re
quired untis for admission. They
may spend an extra semester in
school, he said, but they win be
