Block Squeeze Confronts U.N. united nations, n. y.— UPI — Black African nations put a diplomatic squeeze on the U.N. Security Council today in an effort to force Britain to go all-out in its economic war against white-ruled Rhodesia. As the 15-nation council prepared to resume debate on the Rhodesia crisis, African diplomats made it clear they would press demands that an oil embargo be included in Britain’s list of proposed trade sanctions against the rebel southern African country. The council was convening at 11 a.m. EST. British Foreign Secretary George Brown urged the council Thursday to apply immediate mandatory no-trade bars against Rhodesia. But the only specific sanctions requested were on 10 key exports that provide Premier Ian Smith's regime with an estimated $235.2 million annually. The Afro-Asian nations, the largest power bloc in the U.N. General Assembly, also want a sanction against oil, a vital import for Rhodesia. Sanctions cover trade going into or out of a country. But Brown skirted the sensitive issue—aware that an oil embargo could sabotage Britain's recuperating economy. He said Britain would not oppose a call for an oil embargo—provided it was made in “acceptable terms” to the British delegation.

Miss Theobold Hostess To Fortnightly Club Fortnightly Club met Monday evening with Miss Marianna Theobold. Mrs. Norma Garber was assistant hostess. Miss Mary Francis Cooper, club president presided at a short business session. Miss Pearl O’Hair presented the guest speaker, Ujal Doel of Kenya, East Africa, a graduate zoology student at DePauw University. He talked informally of the location of his country, the pleasant climate and the fertile land with the main crops being coffee, tea, wheat and com in the lower regions. Mr. Deol Is interested in the preservation of wild life in Africa. Slides were shown of the species of wild life to be found in the National Parks. He commented that countries of Africa at one time were teeming with millions of wild animals of different kinds, unmolested by man. Today game is being destroyed in large numbers. Poaching alone is responsible for the destruction of 180,000 head of game a year in one of the National Parks of Tanganyika. White hunters are on record to have killed 800 rhinoceros in 18 months. Some of the species have become rare or extinct. The best examples of game rich pockets left in East Africa are the Serengetti National Park in Tanganyika, the Tsavo National Par kin Kenya and the National Park in Uganda. Wildlife is Africa’s greatest and most important natural resource of immense economic significance and should be preserved. The program was most interesting and informative. A social hour followed and refreshments were served from a candlelighted table with Christmas decorations.

Drawings from her rich and varied experience, the speaker developed with effectiveness and charm her subject of ‘Nurturing Creativity.” To be creative in solving problems, one must vary one’s perspective, and practice openmindedness. One must show courage through promoting positive attitudes in thinking. Success may come after much hard work and the development of one’s talent. She challenged her listeners to permit children to kindle sparks for tomorrow, and deprive them not of a chance to be creative. Dr. Darrow’s remarks and the favorite poetry which she shared, were an inspiration to all who heard her. The hostesses for the occasion were: Mrs. Susanna Compton, Miss Elizabeth Daggy, Mrs. Margaret Hixon, Mrs. June Irwin, Mrs. Forest Wildman, and Mrs. Dorothy Myers.
