COSTLY BROADCASTS A never ending war goes on at Outpost 752, Korea OUTPOST 752, Korea (AP) A never ending war goes on here between the Republic of Korea and Communist North Korea, a war mostly o(broadcast a but sometimes of bullets. Outpost 752 and Its strong- point to the right, Outpost 7 SI, are the closest approach to the North Korean lines. Most of the 151-mile Ko- front Is divided by a swath of more than two miles, half of It owned by the A merl- can and Korean United Forces and half by the Communists. But here on the Klmpo Peninsula, extreme western sector of the front, the dividing line Is the Han Illver und the Han-ImJIn river estuary. The lines are only 4,000 feet or "so apurl.

Holding this sector of 32 miles, about one-fifth of the entire front, Is the Oth Republic of Korea Marine Brigade, commanded by Brig. Gen. Lee Pyung-rnoon. Outpost 151 on top of a windswept peak that commands the surrounding terrain tains powerful loudspeaker 'system which sends periodic propaganda broadcasts toward the Communist troops just a gunshot Across the river and vastly discernible through binoculars Is a similar system tliat throws Communist propaganda at the South. As the HOK marines lessly scan the other side through telescopes and scopus, so do the Communist troops poor at this side.

Communist broadcasts start about five minutes after visitors to tho southern outposts arrive. 'They we're here and they're putting on their usual said Mai.

Since last March the Communists have stepped up attempts to penetrate the peninsula.

Several have been either killed or captured by the Korean marines. The brigade, possibly 5,000 combat troopers, has been on a full combat alert since the abortive attempt on President Chung Hee Park's life Jan. 21 and the North Korean capture of the USS Pueblo two days later, But the UOK marines are almost nlways on full alert status as they guard what Is known as the "back door to Seoul." When the North Koreans Invaded the South In June 1050 (heir main stab came down the classic Invasion route, just to the right of the Klmpo Peninsula. This Is an IB-mlle-wlde area now held by the U.S. 2nd Infantry Division.

But the thrust that caused the total collapse of South Korean forces then and resulted in the Communist capture of Seoul came down this peninsula. The ROK marines are determined that this shall not happen again even though they are spread thin and are armed with weapons of World War II and Korean War vintage: American Ml rifles, carbines, Browning .30 caliber machine guns and Browning automatic rifles. Along the front line trenches, automatic 40mm cannon and batteries of heavy machine guns In quadruple mounts, also old but very practical weapons, stare down at the Han River. When the Han, and the Im- )ln at Its confluence with the Han, are not froten or filled with Ice floes, as they are now, the marines man "water ambush" positions, low silhouette molorboats with four or five riflemen who seek to Intercept raiders corning across In rubber boats or by Individual flotatlondevlcos something like waterwlngs. Few 'get through.

Most of those who do are caught or killed. Zlmolzak remembers one who got across and tried to get back. He was thwarted by one of the powerful whirlpools I the Han that kept pitch Ing him back up on the southern bank. After three tries, he was so exhausted that he gave upwlthouta struggle. The ROX marines are healthy, tough and know how to take care of and handle their guns.

Every man In the brigade, Zlmolzak says, Is either a veteran of the fighting In Vietnam or has volunteered to go.

WAYS TO CUT COSTS STUDIED College space needs outlined I Space needs for a junior college enrollment of 2,000, 1,500 Colvert submitted this summary of space needs for New committee to draft transplant legislation college enrollment of 2,000, 1,500 and 1,100 fulltlrne students were presented to the Brazosport Junior College Board of Regents Monday night.

Dr. C. C. Colvert of the University of Texas made the study and report. He suggested various means of cutting construction costs until college enrollment grows.

The Regents will "digest" Dr. Colvert's findings and obtain cost estimates later on making decisions on Initial plans. For an academic program only, 220,635 square feet would be required for 2,000 fulltlme students; 189,077 square feet for 1,500 students; and 175,091 square feet for 1,100 students, Dr, Colvert reported. However, he said, a gymnasium could be left out of plans, to be built later. The Regents were told they could also elrnl- nate a kitchen and cafeteria for the time being.

Dr. Colvert said It would probably save $600,000 by leaving out the gym. Students could take physical education in their junior and senior years at senior colleges to meet requirements, he said. "You could get by awhile without It," he said. He recommended that a library and a student center adequate for full enrollments be built at the start.

The library should have seating and tables for one-fourth of the student population at a time, he said. Partitions could be put up to provide temporary classrooms In the library and student center In the beginning, with permanent classrooms built when enrollment warrants It, he said. Classrooms for such subjects as history, math and science could be Included In a vocational education building where half of the costs would be paid by the government, said Dr. Colvert. There would be no restrictions on use of these classrooms by academic students, he reported, and vocational students could also take such classes In other campus buildings.

Dr. Colvert submitted this summary of space needs for academic programs only. A technical-vocational committee Is now studying needs In those fields.
