Joe Krause, parade chairman,
and other Cobs will be at the
south side of the Mall to help or
ganize the parade. Cobs will walk
with the parade to regulate speed
and the distance between the
floats. Organizations have been
urged by Krause to drive slowly
because driving too fast past the
judges' stand or following a float
too closely will reduce the chances
of a fair appraisal.
Floats should come to the west
end of the street on the south side
of the Mall. They must not go to
the east end because the parade
will line-up toward the east.
Itemized expense reports must
be turned in to Phyllis Hersh
berger, 540 No. 16th St., before 6
p.m. Thursday. Organizations fail
ing to turn these reports in at this

Sam Stevens'
By FRED DALY
Staff Writer
Sam J. Stevens, manager of
Kings Ballroom, was given a "slap
on the wrist" at a meeting of Lan
caster County Commissioners Tues
day because of statements made in
a letter Stevens circulated among
fraternity presidents last week.
The letter, written to squelch
rumors concerning the possibility
of raids at Kings, insinuated Ste
vens had assurance from the State
Liquor Commission that there
would be no raids on Kings. At
the hearing Stevens said he meant
only that Kings had had no trou
ble. A second letter was drafted by
Stevens explaining the error in
the first letter. He said he had
not called upon the State Liquor
Commission as the first letter
stated, and that his statement as

Built at a cost of $3,000, the

The Outside World
i U.S. Escorts Considered
American aircraft flying near Communist territory might be given
fighter escorts, Secretary of State Dulles said.
The United States is currently considering this problem which is
now being studied by the Joint Chiefs of St.aif.
Dulles said the pilot shot down over Japanese waters Sunday had
the authority to shoot back, but he did not do so.
Judgment on the part of the plane's pilot was described by Dulles
as "one of those hairline decisions which people sometimes change
afterwards."
Russia's claim that the RB29 fired first is false, Dulles said. The
fact that the Soviets feel the need for justification, he continued, is
significant.
No A-Bombs?
Prime Minister Churchill declared it would have been a better
thing if atomic and hydrogen bombs had never been developed.
It would not be within his power to make such a decision, he
said to the House of Commons. When the growth of nuclear weapons
should have stopped, Churchill did not know.
Time and again Sir Winston has maintained that American superi
ority in the development and building of atomic and hydrogen wea
pons has served as a sort of shield.
McCarthy And Censure . . .
Sua. McCarthy said Tuesday that he did not favor attempts to
form a filibuster to extend debate on the censure question until mid
night, Dec. 24, when the extra session will automatically die.
This statement was made, by McCarthy, after reporters told him
there were constant reports that some Senate friends wanted to save
him by extending the debate.
Sen. Barrett (R-Wyo), a staunch defender of McCarthy, said he
expects the Senate to decide the question and vote "probably near
Thanksgiving."
Harlan Nomination Assured
John Marshall Harlan, presently judge of the federal circuit which
includes N.Y., Vt. and Conn., has been nominated by President Eisen
hower to fill the vacancy on the Supreme Court.
The selection, filling the vacancy caused by the death of the late
Justice Robert Jackson, is expected to pass the Senate with little
opposition.
The President also named AEC Commissioner Joseph Campbell to
be comptroller general, head of the General Accounting Office, whose
job it is to supervise the spending of funds delegated by Congress to
federal agencies.
There seems to be opposition to Campbell's appointment. This is
expected from opponents of the Dixon-Yates contract, which Campbell
approved. The comptroller generalship is a fifteen year job, consid
ered to be very important and influential.
Wednesday, November 10, 1954
there was no deal. He said the
letter went out without his check
ing it over.
Barney said the commissioners
do not want University students to
think they are special cases and
exempt from the possibility of a
raid. Drinking by minors is illegal
and subject to arrest, he said. Uni
versity students have "no immu
nity." He added that there would be
no raids on a place as long as it
was considered good. Arresting of
minors puts a "black mark" on a
place, he said.
Fritz Wagener, county attorney,
said that if a place became a trou
ble spot, "padlock procedure,"
used in the past on several West
Lincoln spots would be put into
effect.
Commissioner Russell Brthm,
presiding over the meeting, said
the insinuation in Steven's letter
came through poor wording. He
said Kings was "one of the best
operated places in the county."
J. Philip Colbert, Dean of Stu
dent Affairs, and Frank M. Hall
gren, Associate Dean, attended
the meeting from the University.
Colbert said the University was
interested in the matter because
the University is a sub-division of
state government, hence interested
in law enforcement.
Tal Coonrad, state liquor com
missioner, said he was concerned
mainly because the letter sent by
Stevens mentioned a visit with the
commission.
Both the county commissioners
and University officials said they
wished to "co-operate in this par
ticular area in which we share re
sponsibility." The first letter by Stevens was
mainly an assurance that "there
has not and will not be any 'raids'
or 'arrests' at Kings." Stevens
said he had personally visited the
State Liquor Commission and
"came away satisfied that there
will be no raids on Kings."
I In the meeting Stevens said he
I nunK. k ir'. U j l
gating committee and that there
had never been any trouble.
The second letter retracted his
statement concerning a visit with
the liquor commission and restated
his position of always operating
according to regulations.
