AP photographer Bob Schutz re. ported from the front that Amer- ican and South Korean foo: soldiers made gains of 3,000 yards in the first four hours of their attack Monday.

Scbutz reported the most note. Worthy aspect of the advance was the only moderate" reglgtgnce from what are aparently unusual- ly-poor quality Chinese troops.

Whether these teen-age and middle-age scrapings from the Chinese military barrel are the main defence of the Kumsong sector or whether they are only a forward screening force remains to be seen.

--A-ble Seaman Bill Linkletter. son of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Link- letter, Foundry Street. Summer- slde, arrived home on Saturday night on a. 48-day leave after having done a tour of duty in Korean waters with H. M. C. S. Huron.

It is only nine months since he was last home but in that time he has seen a great deal of the world. Both on the way over and back the ship went by way of Panama Canal and the crew had the opportunity of visiting many foreign ports. While in the Pacific they also tied up at some interesting places. Most of their duty in Korean waters con- sisted of patrolling and shore bombardmcnts. He brought home with him many souvenirs of countries he visited.

Danger Of Armed Clashes Seen Increased

CAIRO, Oct. 14 (AP) Egyptian newspapers predicted to- day Egypt will give a reinforced "no" to an invitation from the Western Big Three and Turkey to join a Middle East defence project centred in the Suez.

The pro-government newspaper Al Misri reported Egypt is con- sulting with other Arab countries to decide on a ommon policy of refusal "to join any states organ- ization for defence in the Middle East." .

The independent major daily, Al Ahram, said top cabinet circles have decided not to discuss de- lance proposals from the United States, Britain, France and Turkey before Egyptian demands on Brit- ain are met.

The demands are for evacuation of British troops from the Suez Canal area and linking 01.. the Anglo-Egyptian Sudan with Egypt.

The threat of clashes between Egypt and Britain spread, mean- while, from the Suez to the Su- dan. British authorities in London already have said they would or- der force if necessary to keep troops in the Suez.

Today, the Sudan's Governor- General. Sir Robert Howe, "said he would resist any attempt to change the present administrative setup

Referring to Egypt's intention to put the. 1,000,000-square-mile Su- dan under the crown of King Farouk. Howe said in a statement at Khartoum. the capital: "1 should take such steps as might be necessary to see that resistance was made effective."

Britain has one battalion, about 1,500 men. posted in that-Sudan, with several thousands of Sudan- we troops. A Ekypt is believed to have one battalion there, under British command.

iiFantastic” Welcome To Royal Couple In Toronto

By R. J. Anderson TORONTO. Oct. 14 -(CP) - "Will Ye Nae Come Back-Again?" The strains of the soft Scottish air-seemed to linger still as Prin- cess Elizabeth and the Duke of Edinburgh left Toronto Saturday night".

it was played in the afternoon by a band in t.he' quadrangle of Hart House. Perhaps more than anything else in 30 memorable hours, it typified the reaction of Ontario's capital to Britain's roy- al tourists.

Canada's second largest city

was captured late Friday. The victory was consolidated Satur- day.

So great was the reception that veteran reporters who had been with the royal couple since their arrival in Montreal last Monday ran out of adjectives to describe it. "Fantastic" was one that was used.

Throughout the day a blnzing sun beat upon the city. Hardly a cloud was in the sky. It was a perfect day for seeing and being seen. At Ontario's official dinner Saturday night. Princess Elizabeth expressed simply her reaction to the welcome accorded her so far in her visit to Canada:

"I have been overwhelmed, yet inspired. by the welcome the people of Canada have given to me and to my husband. We have now been with you for more than five memorable days; days which have made an impression on our hearts and minds which will re- maln with us all our lives."

Her thanks for the welcome. and regret that she is unable to visit all of Canada's cities and towns,

came after Premier Frost had presented to the Prince and Princess Ontario's gifts of a

platimum and gold breach. in the form of the provincial coat of arms. and a silver cigaret box.

Then the Princess and her hus- band left for their train and dc-

parture for Niagara Falls and Western Ontario. Today. they Visit the Falls. St. Caihgrines, Hamilton. Brantford, Woodstock,

London and Chatham, arriving in Windsor late in the evening. They take off from there tomorrow for Kapuskasing in Northern Ontario, the jump-off point for their flight Tuesday to Winnipeg.

Princess Overwhelmed

That Toronto's welcome to a fut- ure queen and her consort would be terrific had been cxpcctcd. it actually was such that Princess Elizabeth was said by her aides to have been "overwhelmed."

It was the greatest turnout of throngs since the tour's inception.
