Cuban Complaints

Heard At

U.N.

UNITED NATIONS, N.V., Oct. 25 ?' The U.N. Steering Committee today agreed quickly to a full United Nations airing of Cuban
complaints that the United States is preparing an invasion of Cuba.
The decision was taken without opposition after Cuban Foreign
Minister Raul Roa accused Sen. John F. Kennedy and Vice President
Richard M. Nixon of making Cuba a scapegoat in the U.S. presidential
campaign. He called for urgent U.N. action.
The United States denied his charges, but said it would not oppose U.N. debate.

Kennedy Says Survey Concealed
IN ILLINOIS WITH KENNEDY. Oct. 25 (A'y Sen. John F. Kennedy charged today that the Eisenhower administration concealed
the findings of a survey of 10 nations showing that American prestige
has declined in order to protect Vice President Nixon.
He leaned to a survey made by the United States Information
Agency.
Kennedy said the administration "refused to release It. And the
reason is that they (the findings) show Mr. Nixon is misinformed."

Nixon Says Kennedy Is WroiifX
CINCINNATI, Oct. 25 (.
Vice President Richard M. Nixon declared toniyht Sen. John F. Kennedy was completely wrong In stating
that the Eisenhower administration had tried to get the Chinese
Nationalists to withdraw from Quemoy and Matsu.
Kennedy challenged Nixon in last Friday's television-radi- o

to deny that several missions were sent to Formosa to try to persuade
to remove his troops from the two offshoie islands.

Bulletin Board Trouble
If there is anything the University
has enough of, it is bulletin boards.
With four boards placed at key locations on campus and every building
having at least one board in its halls,
one would think that the University
population would be well informed
of everything happening on campus.
Such is not the case, however, for
the bulletin boards are always cluttered with outdated notices, posters
plastered over posters, and paper so
damaged by wind and rain as to be
illegible.

The very fact that the boards have
to be located in the weather and
cannot be supervised by someone
makes the problem a difficult one to
solve, but something can be done. We
feel that if the campus groups that
make the most use of the boards
would take turns seeing that they
were kept clear of old notices and
that new notices are properly arranged one problem would be solved.
That would leave only the weather and no one can do anything about
Lexington's weather.

Marxist Chessmen
After a rather neglectful delay
d
years, Communist
of some
revolutionaries have at last set out
to topple the crowned heads of
chess. .
Dispatches from East Germany
indicate that a new October revod
lution there is bringing
changes in the names of chessmen. Henceforth, the King is to be
represented by a piece representing
the rule of the proletariat; the Queen
by a symbol of the intelligencia; the
Knight by an equine reminder of
Communist sport; and so on.
We'll check again in 600 years
to see if these new denominations
have caught on. That's about how
. long bishops, queens, etc., have
40-od-

across-the-boar-

lasted to date in the long history
of chess; and the new pieces deserve a similar chance to win acceptance.
Meanwhile, however, the East
German innovators ought to be
warned that their game may not go
over so well in Moscow. On the one
hand, intellectuals in that chess capital may look with scorn on such
tampering. And on the other hand,
party theoreticians may feci that not
enough changes have been made.
Certainly someone has failed to
change a Casablanca Opening to a
Castro Opening; the King to First
Secretary; the denouement to Czech-matand of course, black to white
and white to black.

THE READERS' FORUM
'Onry Program

In Tranquility

To The Editor:
There are 36 students on campus
(at last count) who are being discriminated against. Who are they?
Students who entered the University
this" fall and were designated as
Honor Students.
How are they discriminated
against? By being compelled to attend and study for a course for which
they receive no credit.
Is this fair? Not when the students in the Honors Program must
maintain a 3.5 average; no mean feat
when professors expect them to do
more and be better than other students in their classwprk. Why can't
a student cut this noncredit course
to study for an exam or do a reading
assignment? Why should a student
want to be in the Honors' Program
at all if he can do as well without
it, and may be handicapped by it?
I have deliberately taken a negative attitude to create controversy,
in the hope that someone will take
an opposite stand and back the
Honors Program for what it is and
not what it seems to be. Who knows?
Somebody might learn something. I,
for one, would like to know what
makes the Honors Program desirable.

To The Editor:
In answer to Robert White's choleric comments may I advance some
remarks "recollected in tranquility."
