Consideration has also been given to the students' class- work throughout the year. It will be noted that some students have been granted "Provisional Promo- tions." "Provisional Promotion means that students so promoted will have to comply with certain re- quirements before they are allowed to proceed with advanced work, Since these requirements vary, it is impossible to list them here. At the opening of school, students pro- visionally promoted will be inter- viewed, and their individual cases discussed with them. Very -careful consideration has been given to all doubtful cases, and promotion or failure has been de- termined finally by what is in the best interests of the student. It will be observed that Grade XII General Course (Academic or Col- legiate) has not been included with these results. It will be found as a separate item.

Ebbs in Police Court upon Stanley William Jones, 58 ' Gloucester Street, Toronto, charged with breaking, entering and theft in a Manchester garage. Jones entered a plea of innocence. A companion of Jones, Harvey Foreman, also of Toronto, who was alleged to have accompanied the convicted man on his escape which took place June 11, appeared in court also charged with breaking, entering and theft, but Crown At- Alex Hall asked that the charge be withdrawn for lack of evidence.

Basil O'Connor, president of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis, said Americans gave $30,- 783,000 -- more than ever before -- to the 1950 March-of-Dimes drive, but added that the fund is being used at an "unprecedented vate" to combat a threatened new, severe epidemic. The number of polio cases so far this year, he said, is slightly above the number in the same period last year, when the United States had a all-time high of 42,3756 new polio patients, U.P. Correspondent Returns To U.S. Lines Tokyo, July ¥ (AP)--Peter Kal- ischer, United Press correspondent in Korea, returned safely to Amer- ican headquarters in Korea today after being cut off from American forces 2% days. The United Press in Tokyo said Kaitscher declared he had not ind eaptured. The Red Pyongy: fadio yesterday claimed that he had been taken prisoner. NET PAID CIRCULATION The Times-Gazette Average Per Issue Jupe, 1950 11,038 Detroit, July 7 (AP) --Strikes and threats of strikes hit the American automobile industry Thursday. In quick succession these were the developments: Some 8, Dodge workers were made idle by an unauthorized walk- out of 80 workers yesterday. How- ever, the second shift reported for work at its normal time. Kaiser-Frazer announced it would be forced to halt production this morning because of a supplier strike in Muncie, Ind. About 10,000 workers will be made idle there. The United Auto Workers (C.1.0.) said a strike of 6,000 employees of Dana Corporation's Spicer Manu- facturing division would be called at midnight Friday unless a con- tract dispute is settled by then. Chrysler said the walkout of its Dodge main plant followed the reprimanding of one of the drivers by his foreman for "loafing on the job." This walkout, the company said, forced it to send the thousands home. There was no comment from the U.AW., which did not sanction '| the stoppage. Kaiser-Frazer attributed its im- pending shutdown to a continuing strike at the Warner Gear Division of Borg-Arner Corporation in Mun- cle. That company makes trans- missions and overdrives for K.-F. The U.AW, has been on strike at Warner Gear since Friday night demanding a union shop, higher vacation pay and other benefits. «| Ford Announces Output Record Windsor, July 7 (CP).--A six- month record for output and sales of its cars and trucks was an- nounced today by the Ford Motor Company of Canada, Limited. *The company said it made and sold more vehicles in the first six months of 1950 than in any previ- ous half-year in its history. Rhys M. Sale, company president, said production in the six months was 28 per cent greater than in the same period of 1949. The company has turned out 72,553 vehicles, he said, as against last year's record total for 12 months of 112,130 ve- hicles. 7 30 Supeforts Flying From U.S. To Korea Thirty U.S. B-29 bombers have taken off from March Field, Calif., bound for Japan and the Korean war.

U.S. NOW SEES PROSPECTS OF LENGTHY WAR Washington, July 7--(AP)--The United States government is begin~ ning to assess the Korean war as a long, difficult and costly struggle. This develcpment of a less op- timistic outlook about an early end to the conflict apparently means a steady build-up of American forces in the war area--with increasing re- quirements for money, men and munitions. In addition, the United States is confronted with the need to (1) keep up a flow of arms to Western Europe, the Middle East, and South- east Asia and (2) keep its own forces prepared to deal with any further moves by the Russian-con- trolled Communist bloc. The administration thus far has withheld any indication of ' what measures it may eventually take. But some highly-placed informants now believe that a degree of indus- trial mobilization may be essential. Inquiries among informed officials today brought out that fundamen- tal estimates of the Korean situa- tion have 'changed considerably un- der the impact of events in the two weeks since the Communists set out to conquer South Korea. Initial calculations here that: 1. The South Koreans would put up a tough, effective resistance. 2. The North Korean army wouid not prove overwhelmingly powerful. 3. Determined action by the Unit- ed States, with the blessings of the United Nations Security Council and the co-operation of other U.N. members, might rapidly discourage the Korean Communists. The powerful southward thrusts of the Communist armies, even against the opposition of such limit- ed American forces as have been quickly thrown into combat, have knocked the props from under those estimates. Britain Refuses To Limit Oil Shipments were To Communist China | London, July 7 (AP)--Britain has turned down an American sug- gestion to limit her oil shipments to Red China because of the Kor- ean war, a foreign office spokesman disclosed today. He said the United States had "informally" asked Britain "wheth- er it would be possible to limit oil shipments to China in the light of the Korean situation." The spokesman reported the Brit- ish answer was that the quantities of oil being shipped to China by British oil companies "is sufficient only for civilian consumption" in China. 4 Chinese Fire On British Plane Hong Kong, July 7--(Reuters)-- Twec unidentified fighter planes to- day fired three bursts at a British passenger plane flying near Swatow on its way from Hong Kong to Formosa.

Settlement came as drivers, Strachey On Carpet Over Plot Charge London, July T--(Re 7--(Reuters)--Prime Minister Attlee today summoned War Minister Strachey to 10 Down- ing Street for a second interview on his week-end "plot against Social- ism" speech--on which the: opposi- tion may move a vote of censure in parliament Tuesday. This second interview strenzth- ened anti-government speculation that Strachey was "on the carpet." The Prime Minister, in two parliamentary rows this week, has defended Strachey's own explana- tion that his use of the word "plot" in a speech at Colchester referred to parliamentary opposition man- oeuvres and not to the Schuman plan, as critics have alleged. Strachey is understood to have assured Attlee that he prefaced the criticized part of his remarks by saying, "I now turn to events in the House of Commons last week." The Times, the Daily Telegraph, and the Daily Mail all made edi- torial comment on the Strachey case today and all suggested he was unsuited to hold office as a minis- ter of cabinet rank. The Times said Strachey's speech last week-end had been a '"sect- arian outburst" which had renewed honesty in the coal and steel trans- actions." : "There may be room for doubt about the stress and phrasing of what Mr. Strachey actually said: STRACHEY (Continued on page 2) American debarkation point. clouds. weapons. tion to defend it from attack. p Korean Situation at a Glance By THE CANADIAN PRESS Advance American Base -- South Korean officer says two important towns, Pyongtaek and Chungju, recaptured by American and South Korean forces. column reported sweeping along east coast toward important Tank-led Red Tokyo -- Major battle reported shaping up between Red troops and outnumbered American-South Korean forces, as Communists pour in reinforcements. fighters wreck up to 16 Red tanks in stabs through heavy B-29's raid North Korean port in Chinnampo har- bor, report seeing four submarines.

Foreign Minister Chou En-Lai outlined the Peiping regime's posi- tion in a cable yesterday to U.N. Secretary-General Trygve Lie. It accused the US. of an "act of open aggression" in assigning American naval units to protect the ChineSe Nationalist island bastion. : Meanwhile, the security coun- cil called a session at 3 P.M. E.D.T. today to take final action on a resolution asking the Unit- ed States to name Gen. Douglas MacArthur as the first supreme commander of a U.N. military force in battle. Passage of the measure appeared certain. Chou En-Lai's message accused the U.N. of acting as a tool of the United States government, the Se- curity Council and the Secretary- General of the United Nations have foregone their functions and duties of upholding world peace, and thereby became pliant instruments of the policy of the United States government . . . "Despite any military steps of obstruction taken by the United States government, the Chinese are irrevoeably determined to liberate Taiwan (Formosa) without fail." The Communist note assailed as illegal the Security Council's reso- lution calling on U.N. members to aid South Korea. Following the line Moscow has been following, the message contended that Russia and Red China should have been present for the council action. Battle Looms On Return 0f King Leopold Brussels, July 7 -- (AP) -- Anti- Leopold Socialists prepared new manoeuvres today in their fight to keep Belgium's exiled monarch from the throne the Social Christian Government is preparing for him. The Socialists, most bitter oppon- ents to the return from Switzerland of King Leopold III, completed plans for a giant parade tomorrow. They called it "popular demon- stration of tribute" to Regent Prince Charles, who has served during the exile of his brother Leopold. As the pro-Leopold Catholic Gov- ernment began its parliamentary battle to recall the King, Socialist~ inspired token strikes swept Bel- gian industry yesterday. Protesting the proposed return »f the monarch who surrendered to the Germans in 1940, 'every shift of coal miners stopped work for 30 minutes. Metal plants," Antwerp dock workers, streetcar men and schip-construction and repair work- ers all halted for short periods. In Parliament, the house and senate met in joint session but So- cialist filibustering and wrangling forced adjournment before debate on the royal question could be opened. The two houses meet jointly again Tuesday. The Socialists already have announced that at least 11 speakers will debate in opposition to the King. The Social Christians plan to use only two but are count- ing on their majority in each house to restore Leopold to his throne.

Truman said the money would be used to enable the Atomic, Energy Commission "to build additional and more. efficient plants" to carry out his direc- tive of Jan, 31 ordering work on the H-bomb. The President said the funda- mental objective is to use atomic energy for peace, but he added: "Until this objective is achiev- ed, however, we must strengthen our own defences by providing the necessary atomic energy capacity."

Field Marshal Sir William Slim, chief of Britain's Imperial General Staff, said today the Korean war would not spread throughout the yoo of Asia "unless Russia wants to." He told reporters the action of the United and States and Britain to defend South Korea would be "reassuring to other .Asian coun tries who value their independence." "We must call a halt to aggres= sion," Slim said. "The last time, we did it too late and we learned that it is better to halt aggression earlier than later." He said Britain would honor its military aid agreement with Burma should this country be attacked. Return Of Russians To U.N. Is Prerequisite To Korea Peace, New Delhi, July 7 (AP) --Premier | Jawaharlal Nehru of India said today that the return of Russia to the United Nations and admission to the U.N. of Communist China are "necessary prerequisites to end- ing the Korean hostilities." Nehru told a press conference that both he and his government stand ready to mediate in the Korean conflict but "only if re- quested by the parties concerned." The Sectirity Council, he declared, had no' alternative except to ask for a cease fire, to call North Korea the aggressor and ultimately to use force. = India has supported the council action because she felt it was the only way to avoid an ex- tension of the conflict. India in endorsing the council resolution had said she still favored mediation if possible. Later the ndians were reported to feel that mediation would not be possible while military action continued. Answering a question, the Indian Prime Minister smilingly said he thought there was a "50-50" chance the Korean fighting would develop into a world war. India's support of the Security Council stand on Korea did not mean his government was aligning India with the: Western bloc, Nehru said. An alignment with either the Western or Soviet bloc would mean it had "ceased to count" and was "just ditto someone else," he declared.
