Win Architecture Prize
Paul W. Medlin, Thomas J.
Mowlam and Gordon W. Wilson
were named winners of first, sec
ond and third prizes respectively
in the local division of a nation
wide Easter Seal Poster Contest
yesterday.
The local contest was sponsored
by the local chapters of Beta
Sigma Phi, a nationwide non-
academic sorority. Medlin, a soph
omore architecture major living in
College View, was awarded $15;
Mowlam, a senior architecture ma
jor from Corsicana, was awarded
$10, and Wilson, a junior archi
tecture major from Baytown, was
awarded $5.
Originally, the posters were not
made for a contest, but were as
signed as a design project in a
Graphic Arts class taught by Jos
eph Donaldson, Jr., of the Division
of Architecture. The projects
were assigned on Feb. 13 and were
due on Feb. 22. After the assign
ment was made, it was decided to
use the posters in the contest.
There were 25 entries in the
contest. The posters were judged
by a five member team:
Mrs. C. M. Jones, representing
the sponsoring sorority;
Dr. Maurice Futrell from the
Department of Plant Physiology
and Pathology;
J. H. Hinojosa, Alan Stacell and
W. G. Horsley, all from the Divi
sion of Architecture.
The posters will be used to pro
mote Easter Seal campaigns in
six counties of Texas and might
possibly find their way onto the
face of an Easter Seal.

Algerian, North African
Peace Conference Begins
By The Associated Press
RABAT, Morocco—The leaders
of Tunisia, Morocco and the Al
gerian rebel regime went into con
ference Wednesday night to ex
amine prospects for peace in Al
geria and North African unity.
Their meeting followed top-level
French-Tunisian talks in Paris on
Algerian peace.
The North African meeting
brought together Morocco’s new
King Hassan II, Tunisia’s presi
dent Habib Bourguiba and Ferhat
Abbas, premier of the provisional
rebel nationalist government of
Algeria, and it gave impetus to
plans for eventual federation or
association for the vast area of
Northwest Africa.
Such a federation, called United
Maghreb, has long been a dream
of North African nationalists.
One obstacle to Bourguiba’s
dream of an independent federa
tion of Algeria, Tunisia and Mo
rocco was reported cleared away
in his conference with King Has
san II of Morocco.
“The cloud which had darkened
relations between Morocco and
Tunisia is ready to disappear,”
Hassan said after a morning 'ses
sion.
This apparently was a reference
to the issue of Mauritania, a des
ert nation Tunisian recognizes as
independent but which Morocco
claims it owns. In recent months
the issue of Mauritania has soured
the once warm relations between
the two former French colonies.
Fresh from talks with French
President Charles de Gualle in
Paris, Bourguiba now appeared
trying to clear the biggest remain
ing obstacle to a North African
union—the Algeria rebellion.
In a broadcast taped in France
and sent to Algeria and Tunisia,
Bourguiba urged the Algerian na
tionalist rebels to work with de
Gaulle to end the seven-year-old
rebellion.
Rebel leaders who have their
headquarters in Tunis, Bourguiba’s
capital, showed interest.
