Asked if he thought the 1 of Cuba came too late, Mallo a of trouble would have been p had acted last year during the un successful invasion, for Russia was not as involved with Cuba then, as it is now." In response to a question con cerning Cubans supporting the United States, should they invade the island nation, the Cuban stu dent stated: "I think a majority of the people would support the Americans." Mallo added, "the ac tion taken by Kennedy should hasten the overthrow of Castro." In the event the Communist re gime should fall, Mallo said he thought a temporary government would be established to help Cuba recover from the damage caused by the Reds. "Cuba will eventually return to a democratic type of gov ernment," he said. The Carolina student, speaking in fluent English, told the radio audience that he supports Presi dent Kennedy's action against Cuba since he feels the United States' showdown is not with Cuba, but with Communism. Mallo said he is undecided as to thether he will return to Cuba someday; he felt he would wait until he completed school before he reached a decision. Ferris, Flowers Fairest The first place winner in the Old Rose Exhibit at the South Carolina State Fair Wednesday was Dr. Warren Robert Ferris, University of South Carolina pro fessor. The Old Rose Exhibit is spon sored each year by the Palmetto Garden Club of South Carolina and the winner is presented a silver pitcher by the State-Record Co.

A lot revented if the United States Youthful Threesome Arrested BY ROBERT WANT A breakthrough has been made in the rash of thefts plaguing the Carolina campus over the past months, reports campus police chief C. B. Bundrick. He credits "wonderful student interest and cooperation" for finally catching up with a youthful threesome who have admitted to a dozen thefts at USC. These three swift operators were spotted coming out of the fra ternity dorms last Friday by a group of USC students; a chase ensued in which the weight of stolen property proved to be too much for the juveniles. Two were chased down and the third rounded up by the campus police the next day. Extensive questioning by police was needed before the suspects would admit to the break-ins and to facts concerning them. Only 12 thefts were at last admitted and I many remain to be explained. Al though beginning their clandestine activities late in August, it was I not until October 15 that a pre viously menacing situation became r critical. On that day alone over $100 was reported stolen in thefts extending from hte Horseshoe to Preston. Joseph A. Barnes, housing direc tor, urged all dorm counselors to alert the men in their dorms two weeks ago to the possible dangers of theft and means of prevention. He said the three had no official (Continued on page 8) The Registrar's office reports a that there will be no University t Holiday on November 10th as had been previously announced.

"Our will must never again be found wanting anywhere in the Free World." The reaction of Great Britain to the "quarantine" is a major con cern of individual Americans as k well as the United States govern ment. Prof. Moore, whose specialty is - U. S. - British relations, said Great Britain has "long felt that n we have been brewing up 'a storm n in a teapot' over Castro," and he predicts a "mixed response" in I Britain and among European allies a to President Kennedy's "forceful" t action. " "While the views of the British government will no doubt be con t siderably more restrained than , that of the newspapers and poli ticians, it is safe to say on the basis of past policies that members , of MacMillan's cabinet will have . grave private reservations about the wisdom of the President's ac - tion on Cuba," Prof. Moore said. He said British newspapers, poli ticians of both parties, and the "nuclear disarmers," are sure to feel "considerably less restraint" than the government itself, and to criticize the United States for "unilateralism, war - mongering, violation of freedom of the seas," and "making a missile-mountain - out of Castro instead of treating r him as the political molehill most Britishers believe him to be." NATO nations - with the ex ception of West Germany - share the views of the British, Prof. . Moore said, but he also believes it .likely that DeGaulle "will be im I pressed by our willingness to take a firm stand." Prof. Moore said "it is to be lamented" that the British and other European allies fail to under stand that "Cuba is to the United States what the Suez was to Britain and France." Vital national Interests are as clearly at stake for the United States in Cuba as they were for Britain and France in the Suez, Prof. Moore said. "Our failure to appreciate their (Britain's and France's) point of view (in the Suez) is now being duplicated by their failure to ap preciate ours in Cuba," he said.

"Premier Khrushchev was ur >ubtedly encouraged in his reek ss act of mounting IRBM's (i rmediate range ballistic missiles t Cuba by what he interpreted a nited States indecision and lac [ will in a whole series of recer ommunist challenges." Prof. Walker said the "reckless 3ss in Cuba" partially result om "our failure to take a fin and in Laos in the face of a lually open challenge." But he said "even a successfu ling of the Soviet bluff in Cub ill not prevent a continued Sovie ,sting of our will in other areas.
