AMS to Show Grid Pictures
‘•Reviewing top contenders for Jeff Cravath’s SC football machine and watching movies from last year’s big games are set high on the orientation program at tlie AMS smoker tomorrow evening,” said Dave Evans, cochairman for the program.
Coach Cravath will introduce members of the Trojan eleven to start off proceedings for the evening and many of the lettermen will be viewed later in movies of last season.
Pictures of the SC-Stanford clash, acclaimed by grandstanders as the most thrilling game of the PCC season, were obtained by the committee last night for top billing.
The AMS smoker is scheduled in the men’s gym tomorrow night, 7 to 9:30. All new men students of the university are especially Invited to attend.

followed by a short on the SC band and rooting section. The movies will be shown by Harris Moore of th« cinema department.
New men students at the university are to be special guests for the evening, with all other men also being invited by Co-Chairmen Evans and Herb Hynson to attend the smoker,
Wally Flanagan. AMS president, has instructed his aides to be prepared for an overflow crowd of more than 1500 in the gymnasium following the scheduling of what Evans and Hynson term "an outstanding evening of entertainment.”
Besides presentation of football men and the movies, the AMS council has managed to secure singer Red Robinson and other surprise performers, to be announced later.
The assembly adopted a 63-point agenda despite Soviet objections that many of the items were inappropriate. As the vote neared, Soviet Vice-Foreign Minister Andrei Vishinsky protested particularly against debate on Greece, on the independence for Korea and on possible changes in the Italian peace treaty which went into effect less than two weeks ago.
But Vishinsky lost every move to head-off a thorough airing of all east-west problems.
LIE ASKS COMPROMISE
Vishinsky entangled the assembly in another acrimonious debate less than an hour after UN Secretary-General Trygve Lie pleaded with big power delegates to compromise their differences lest they make UN fail.
Lie. alarmed by the bitter tone of a week of general debate, blamed the east-west split on big power suspicions and fears—rather than ideological differences. lie advised the big powers to use moderation in all debate.
VISHINSKY ACCUSES
Vishinsky stormed back with a blunt accusation that the United States, in wanting to debate Korea and the Italian treaty, sought merely to avoid its international agreements.
For two years, the United States and Russia have wrangled over an interim government for Korea, which was wTested from Japan during the war and promised independence after a period of big power trusteeship. The United States has despaired of agreeing with Russia on the interim arrangements and asked the assembly to make recommendations.
U. S. CONDEMNED
Vishinsky’s resolution to condemn the United States and Great Britain as warmongers went on the agenda by default. Anglo-American delegates did not protest.
Vishinsky. in turn, did not object to debate on the American suggestion for a 55-nation, year-round “watchdog” committee that could step into international disputes which the veto-ridden security council failed to settle.
