Carol Escapes, Gains Portugal
Ex-Rumanian King Sends Ultimatum
NEW YORK, March 5— <U.P)— Former King Carol II of Rumania and Mme. Magda Lupescu escaped from Spain to Portugal after Carol, in high anger, sent an ultimatum to Spanish Generalissimo Franco demanding that he be released from “captivity” within three ■ days, the United Press learned tonight.
Private advices from Europe to the United Press in New York disclosed that Carol, in a message to Franco on January 26, accused him of breaking his word and failing to carry out his part of a “deal” whereby Carol and Lupescu were | to be permitted to go to Portugal.
“I inform your excellency,” Carol wrote to Generalissimo Franco, “that I will wait three more days for authorization to leave for Portugal. After that date I will hold the Spanish government responsible ... for all the consequences that will result.”
Carol, accorahffc to the advices from Europe, accepted the conditions but claimed that, after U. S. Ambassador to Madrid Alexander Weddell and the British Ambassador said no visas would be forthcoming for the couple, he and Mme. Lupescu still were held “captives” in Seville, Spain.
Most recent student violators whose names were traced by identification tags are Arnold Lieberman, Joe Cornet, and Don P. Kennedy. Two faculty members also violated parking rules, and their names have been referred to university administrative officials. LETTERS SENT The 37 names which university records failed to determine were sent to the Automobile Club of Southern Califomia for identification by license plate numbers. Of the numbers sent the club yesterday only two were students: Archer Chamlee and Herbert C. Brown.
Inability to trace names by license plates with greater speed is due to the fact that all 1941 license plates have not yet been recorded with the Automobile club.
All other parking offenders were individuals not connected with the university. Letters have been sent to them informing them of their infraction of rules and asking their participation.
OFFENDERS CITED Student offenders issued citations will appear before the men’s council and women’s judicial court, student disciplinary groups, next week. Punishment for the offense will be determined by the organization.
Today marks the third day in a determined student attempt to clear the confusion in the parking lots adjacent to Aneas hall, Science building, Bridge hall and Dentistry, and the Foyer of Town and Gown.
Trojan Knights and Squires will patrol these lots in the mornings and afternoons to issue citations to automobiles which “block access to or exit from lots, or which unnecessarily hinder the orderly movement of cars on the lots.” The present drive is under the sponsorship of the student senate aided by Knights and Squires, men’s service organizations.
Leo Adams, assistant general manager of the ASSC, is supervising student action.
