Surrounded by Ike Enemy . . .
Wounded, Battle Fatigued
Marines Face Cold, Guns
By TOM STONE
Koto, Korea, Dec. (j—DP) Tittle
Koto was a darkened tent city to
night of courageous U. S. Marines
and soldiers whose fate rests with
providence.
They arc surrounded by over
whelming forces of a determined
enemy.
They are burdened with crip
pled tanks, vehicles and guns.
They are half frozen from bit
terly cold winds that sweep in
from the frigid plateau.
They are wounded and bleeding
from battle.
But they are not defeated and
they certainly are not disheartened.
They are confident they can and
will fight their way out in the
best American tradition.
Bel ween (hem and survival is
is a narrow, frozen mountain
road that leads to safety. But
in the snow-covered hills, on eith
er side are the enemy—Lying in
wait for the day for freedom
they know must come.
“We will suffer heavy losses.
The enemy greatly outnumbering
us. They have blown the bridges

and blocked the roads. Our vehi

will make it somehow.”
Thus spoke? Col Lewis Puller, the
tough little commanding officer of
the First Marine Regiment which
now appears to hopelessly trap
ped here.
Seven miles north of here lies
the mountain hamlet of Hagaru. It
is on the- south end of the great
Chosin (Changjin) reservoir that
spreads over the land like a giant
mirror.
And at Hagaru is the same sit

Noted Writer
Scheduled As
WF Speaker
Dr. Frederick K Stamm, distin
guished speaker on the NBC radio
series, “Highlights of the Bible,”
and author of If This Be Religion,
will speak at the A&M Methodist
Church tonight at 6:15 and 7:15.
Sponsored by the American
Friends Service Committee Dr.
Stamm’s appearance is sponsored

The noted speaker and author
will speak at a supper and infor

ing the subject “Talking Peace and
Thinking War” as his topic
At 7:15 Dr. Stamm will speak on
“Facing the Fifties with Faith.”
For a number of years Dr.
Stamm served as minister at the

; forces.
Less than one week ago Ma
rines and soldiers were driving
i towards Manchuria along both
j sides of the reservoir.
They were racing through a
beaten enemy—The Red army
! of North Korea. It was a mailer
of running to the border and
calling a halt.
But suddenly, seemingly out of
nowhere, came thousands of Chin
ese. Their surprising entrance
stunned the Democratic world.
They overpowered the U. N. forces
by sheer weight, the tide turned.
Yesterday along the countryside
the evidence tells the story. Amer
ican dead lie in fields and ditches.
On the roads sprawl the wrecked
and burned hulls of American ve
hicles and guns.
Instead of an offensive opera
tion this is a desperate defensive
fight for survival.
The hills immediately surround
ing Koto and Hagaru are dotted
with red, yellow, blue, green and
white parachutes, used . to drop
food and supplies to the cut-off
troops.
And there is plenty. Supply is
not a problem. The only problem
is how to crash through an over
whelming force.

Though we did not talk with him
ourselves, we were told that
“Pinky” Wilson asked that the
same thing be done when he was j
on the campus for a class reunion j
j the weekend of the Rice game. He-
| was somewhat surprised that pre-
I sent day students did not know
that the verse quoted above was
tiie original first verse to the song 1
and that it was sung by Aggies \
for many years.
This first verse would easily
clear up any confusion caused , by
the verse sung now. And the pre
sent one could be reversed spec
ifically for .competition with the J
University.)
Publication of Tax
List Was Tll-advisetT
Editor, The Battalion;
The recent publication of the
delinquent tax list (including 30
cent and 50 cent debts) by the city
of College Station was very ill-
advised and a backward step in a
supposedly progressive cbmmun-
I ity.
j The confidence and support of
1 many not included on the list has
!been weakened.

(Editor’s Note: The delinquent,

1 Battalion as an advertisement
j paid for at regular rates by the

By JOHN M. HIGHTOWER
Washington, Dec. G—<2P)—Presi
dent Truman and Prime Minister
Attlee were reported today to be
studying intensively the impact of
Korean reverses on their military
and political positions throughout
the world and their policies toward
Communist China.
The extent to which they should
go in the United Nations in brand
ing the Chinese Red regime as an
aggressor and advocating action
against it’ was understood to have
been among the, subjects which
may have developed real differ
ences . in the American and Brit
ish viewpoints.
Qualified informants said the
two leaders had agreed on the im
mediate course they would follow
in the United Nations in respect
to Red China. But this apparently
meant only that the two had re
affirmed their governments’ sup
port of a pending resolution de
manding that the Chinese Com
munists pull their troops out of
Korea.
The issue of branding Red China
as an aggressor goes far beyond
that. It raises a question of what
the United Nations would be pre
pared to do about an aggression
charge. Among American officials
there has been some talk of trying

Mascot Campaign
Our campaign for a mascot for
TSCW is progressing. Of course
you’ve heard about it. We see no
reason, why we shouldn’t have one,
too. Everything has been suggest
ed from an Aggie to a white rat.
We promise their being named to
gether is purely coincidental.
We’re thinking of a gazelle or
a duck or a professor. Maybe the
Aggies have some original sug-1
dash off to us in the form of a
letter to the editor of the Daily
I.ass-0. Just omit suggesting a
cat- please.
Now that we’ve nil had otir holi
days, I suppose the profs will ex
pect us to do some work. As a
matter of fact, I’m quite, sure they
will, and are, doing just that. Life
is so unfair. But, we must all pre
serve the “A” averages', so here’s
lighting the midnight lam]).
to get a U. N. blockade of the
China coast or to call for political
and economic sanctions.
The British, whose basic Far
Eastern policy is described as be
ing to avoid any further involve
ments in conflict with the Chinese,
are understood to regard such
ideas unfavorably. Britain recog
nizes Red China, the United States
does not.
Prime Minister Attlee may
throw some light on the closed
door talks in a luncheon speech he
is scheduled to deliver at the Na
tional Press Club here today
(about 12:30 p.m. EST), following
his third talk with the President,
beginning at 11:30 a.m. EST.
Aides expected he would stress the
British view that U. N. moves in
the Far East should not lie per
mitted to weaken plans for the
build-up of anti-Communist de
fenses in Europe.
In this connection it was report
ed that, Attlee believes the imme
diate appointment of a supreme
commander for the projected Al
lied army in Western Europe would
prove a groat boost to European
morale and do much to offset the
effect of the reverses which the
U. N. forces have suffered in Ko
rea. He is prepared to urge this
view on Mr. .Truman, if in fact he
has not already done so.
