Page 4 THE BATTALION Wednesday, March 5,1952 Allied Planes Jump 70 MIGs, Destroy 5 American warplanes surprised a flight of Communist MIG-15 jets today and shot down at least five near the Yalu River. Another MIG' was listed as prob ably destroyed. The wild .‘10-minute morning bat tle was touched off when 28 F-86 Sabre jets pounced on a flight of 70 MIGs as the Reds came out of their Manchurian sanctuary. “We caught them by surprise and bounced the whole formation,” an Air Force officer said. Biggest Bag Since It was the biggest bag of Red jets since Jan. 25, when Sabre pi lots destroyed 10. Another MIG crashed behind the Manchurian border without a shot being fired at it. Two Allied pilots saaid the plain was turning when it suddenly went into a tight spin and roared to the ground. Fighting on the battle front con tinued light, but the Reds stepped up their artillery and mortar fire in some sections Tuesday. Reds Throw The Communists threw nearly 1,500 rounds at an Allied position north of the punchbowl on the eastern front. The bombardment was near the Red-held hill called “Luke the Gook’s Castle,” a strong- point from which the Reds have been blasting for several weeks. The Communists also renewed their propaganda leaflet barrage Tuesday. The U.S. Eighth Army communi- ique reported only light patrols and probes across the front. Temper atures ranged from 13 to 33 de grees (F). First Marine air wing pilots con centrated their fire on Communist bunkers. They claimed at least 43 destroyed or badly damaged.

Truman Policies Against Conveying War Into China Washington, March 5—(A 5 )—The Truman administration has decided against any move to carry the Korean war to China even if the truce talks collapse. Officials said that is the present basic policy, but how it is applied if and when a collapse occurs will undoubtedly depend on what the Communists do arrd what the Amer ican people think about it. In the highest levels of the de fense and state departments it is recognized, officials privately con cede, that popular indignation could force the United States in some circumstances to take action which would either contradict or diverge from its present policy.

Allison to the Philadelphia Bulletin Forum at Philadelphia. It was delivered by his assistant, U. Alexis Johnson, who returned 10 days ago from talks with Gen. Matthew B. Ridg- way and other top U.N. military men in Korea. “It is our policy,” Allison said, “to confine the conflict to Korea. We do not propose to widen the scope of the war. That has been our policy from the start. That remains our policy. It is up to the Communists. If they want to wid en the conflict and engulf the world in a terrible world war, then they must be the ones to do it.” Truce talks at Panmunjom are deadlocked now over several issues. Allison and his closest associates as well as military leaders report edly still believe the odds are at least even on the possibility of agreement on a truce. The have been considering for many weeks, however, what the United States should do in event of a collapse of negotiations. It is known that consideration has been given to carrying the war directly against China. It is now apparent that the decision has been reached to avoid this if possible. MSC Display Set Of Mexico Scenes Paintings of Mexico scenes by Bill Leftwich may be displayed in the MSC at a near future date, Mrs. Ralph Terry, supervisor of the MSC art gallery committee, said today. Illustrations of interesting events that occured in southern Mexico while Leftwich was with the U. S. Aftosa Commission are the principle subjects of the paint ings. Mrs. Terry will review 40 of the works today. Leftwich, who is a self-made painter, is a veteran of World War II studying pre-vet medicine at A&M. He is preparing these il lustrations for a collection of time stories about the Aftosa Commis sion operation in Mexico. The book will be ready for pub lication sometime this summer. In reaching this decision the advice of military leaders that a bigger effort in the Far East would mean a weakening of America’s home, air and other forces has been a decisive factor. Allison said that while the Uni ted Nations do not want to broad en the war, they also are deter- ^ mined not to pay such a price for peace as would reward the Reds for having started the conflict in the first place. * Polio Patient Has Baby Boy Mrs. Rowland (Dorothy) Cyr gave birth to a nine pound eight ounce boy Thursday in j^Fort Worth hospital where been a polio patient since rJovem- ber.
