The UN Police Force promptly intervened, threatening to throw the entire group off the campus “for inciting a riot.” Officers Tammie Quick, Rosanne Smith, and Teresa Rivera stood firm, and the demonstration continued. This time “Chiang Kai, Yes . . . Mao, No” filled the air. The Police classified this chant as a spiritual song, and the delegation continued demonstrating. William T. Thurman, President of the Utah Association for the United Nations formally opened the assembly, preceded by the procession of the flags. Delegate Rebbie Fleming carried the flag for Nationalist China. The Plenary Session opened and the resolution to have Nationalist China brought up. Russia and France spoke for the measure and the United States and Connie Furniss and Clark Walker, representing China, spoke against the measure. The resolution met with defeat, and Nationalist China remained in the United Nations. The delegates then turned to more serious work in their committee meetings, specialized agencies, and coloquim, where they played a major part. Participants included Karen Black, Norma Boesland, Dean- testants separated. Those who spoke the same language met again in their designated building, where they took tests in vocabulary, grammar. .rea abilit <neecmcdl ten 1, 1964 W.C.

The lady related that she did not notice a W. C. (meaning water closet or toilet). Being alarmed at not noticing a necessary accessory the man wrote to the landlord as to where the W. C. was. The landlord was puzzled as to what W. C. meant and after thinking it over came to the conclusion that it meant Western Church. and he replied: Dear Sir, I regret the delay on replying to your letter but I take great pleasure in telling you that the. W. C. is located nine miles from the house and is capable of seating 250 people. This is very fortunate for you if you are in the habit of going regularly and you will be glad to know that there are people that take their lunch with them, making a day of it. Other people who come in cars arrive just in time, but are usually in such a hurry that they can’t wait. The last time I went was six years ago. It made me feel awfully good, but I had to stand up all the time. It may be interesting to you to know that a bazaar is to be held to raise money to furnish the W.C. with plush seats as people feel that it is long felt needed.
