Brazil vs. Argentina, catch-as-catch-can wrestling match sponsored by the United feuaes looks like a flop on all counts. First because the United States is grubstaking the [cser—Brazil—and second because such balance of power politicking is obsolete.

To make sure the watermelons are cold Friday night, they are being “hayed and iced” Thursday morning. The melons have been ordered from a large market which imported them from Mexico.
“A blanket invitation is being extended to every student to come to 28th street Friday night at 7 o’clock and yell. sing, dance, and •at,” said Williams. “It will cost you nothing except a little shoe tattler.”

Report Atom Defense
MEXICO CITY, Sept. 22—The newspaper Novedades said today that American technicians have" discovered how to locate and disintegrate atomic projectiles at a distance of 20 to 30 miles, which would be equally effective against! atomic bombs or planes carrying the projectiles.
In Washington, William Higginbotham, secretary of the Federation of Atomic Scientists, termed the story “absurd and irresponsible.”
Wallace Raps Congress
BOSTON. Sept. 22—Former Vice-President Henry A. Wallace today renewed his demands for a special session of congress to enact a rationing and price control bill and to investigate the loyalty check of government employes.
He called for investigation of the Taft-Hartley labor bill, said the nation needed a price-control bill “with teeth in it,” and termed the loyalty check of government workers “a witchhunt.”
New China War Starts
NANKING, Sept. 22—Communist armies, apparently repulsed in the Yangtze river sector of central Cnina, opened a new offensive in the north today aimed at isolating Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek’s forces in Manchuria, pro-gov-ernment newspapers reported.
Press dispatches from Peiping said the communists opened a new, strong offensive against the Peiping-Mukden railway, supply line to Manchuria. The supply port of Hulutao, midway between Tientsin and Mukden, was reported under an all-day curfew.

It j European countries, Dr. Robert B. Fettingill will speak on “Reflections on a Summer in Europe” at an open meeting of the Council of Atomic Implications at 3 tomorrow afternoon in 305 Administration, not in Bovard auditorium as previously announced.
Dr. Pettingill, director of the teaching institute of economics and faculty adviser of the CAI, recently returned from a trip throughout western Europe and will give his impresssions of life today in Europe and the predictions which he drew from them.
MISGUIDED AMERICANS Feeling that some Americans have been misguided in their opinions of economic and political questions of Europe, Dr. Pettingill will try to present his findings in a more realistic light.
Jim Roberts, secretary general of CAI, said that the council needs additional members and everyone is invited to attend tomorrow’s meeting.
FOREIGN HELP
The council has compiled a list of students and teachers in many foreign countries. By contacting these people, the council hopes to create understanding and better control of atomic energy internationally by writing and visiting them.
The CAI is cooperating with the cinema department at SC in making a film on the dangers of atomic war. educational forum type is being produced and dramatic programs are being planned to inform students at SC and the public at large of the atomic problems.
Two scripts, one of them transcribed, have been written by the radio committee of the council. One is called “Atlantis—A Continent That Destroyed Itself.” The council has also preserved round-table discussions over KUSC. They have been transcribed on discs.
