The four-day forum, centering on the theme “New Patterns for Mid-Gen-tUry Living” closed with the session on international affairs.
‘Our pattern of living must be a pattern of unity,” Dulles said. "But that unity must not be coerced, It must flow from the free acceptance of concepts which Will override differences. It must be a society of consent.” He said the foreign ministers did not- consider “short-range” solutions to World problems lest they undermine the moral strength of the tree world. The secretary of state made no mention of Prime Minister Winston Churchill’s proposal for a toplevel Big Four meeting including Soviet Russia. But he indicated the foreign ministers agreed that the invitation to Russia to hold Big Four talks on German unification was a necessary preliminary to any broader negotiations. "It is our yfew that few things would be more dangerous than a meeting which produced the illusion of agreement, without the reality of agreement,” he said. The invitation for talks on Germany "will provide an answen to whether the Soviet government is willing to have a meeting on, terms which will provide an actual testing of its intentions’ in terms sufficiently concrete to be significant."

"We don’t want a policy set up and then riddled with exceptions.” The Big Ten believes that the NCA'A program has worked unfairly against conference schools, in that Big Ten schools have bean the featured performers in most games. ’ “This year nine of our ten schools will be on the program,” the spokesman said. “Last year we had just as many “We know that we can hurt other schools w’ith television of our games, and we know !that other schools can hurt us. But w T e want to change the control so that we hurt only ourselves. “If we had regional control,” he said, “we could say where the game would go, and it in regional lines so it would hurt only, us.” "The real interest in games is local,' he said, *a‘nd interest in games follows regional lines.” High School Football Bluffton 38, Portland 19.
