The Wolverines, racked by injuries throughout the pre-season drills, have been rated a slight favorite by most prognosticators. How- ever, no fair comparison of the teams can be made. Team Looks Good The teams look quite even when one compares notes. Both are said to be bigger than in past years. Michigan finally has, in Don .osts Rugged US c in Opener loda 1. Judge Halts- TV Football Ticket Sales A suit filed by Rep. John J. Fitz- patrick (D-Det.) in Wayne County Circuit Court seeks to block the showing of a closed-circuit tele- vision broadcast of the University's football game with Michigan State University on Oct. 4. The promoters of the closed cir- cuit telecast, C. R. Smith Enter- prijses of Detroit and GianTView television network of Ferndale, Mich., approached Michigan Union President, Barry Shapiro last week asking if the Union were interested in sponsoring the telecast locally. Approach Union Because of the lack of time, the Union was unable to close a deal. However, Barry Shapiro,'59, Union president, said that the Union was negotiating with a group to bring a closed-TV telecast of the Ohio State game into Ann Arbor. Shapiro declared last night he was unable to tell at this time whether the present situation would interfere with possibilities for the Ohio State same. Orders Sales Stopped Circuit Judge Theodore R. Bohn ordered ticket sales for the tele- cast into nine theatres in Michigan and Ohio to stop' and for the theaters not to prepare for the broadcast. The hearing will be at 2 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 3-less than 24 hours before the game. Under law, the hearings cannot be set any sooner. However, Judge Bohn explained that he could hear the case on Wednesday, Oct. 1, if lawyers for both sides signified that they were ready to argue the case then. No immediate comment wa available from Rep. Fitzpatrick. Calls Telecast Illegal The suit is based on a 1951 law which states that it is illegal fo a state institution to televise any of its programs exclusively over a closed circut. University Athletic Director Frit Crisler said that this does not in volve the University since th game is being played in Eas Lansing under the auspices o MSU. He added that the Univer. sity had televised some 3 or4 home games into theatres durin 1950 before this law went int effect, but dropped the program as it was highly unsuccessful. Games Sold Out The tickets for the game a completely sold out (Rep. Fritz patrick has two tickets for th game, which were given him b MSU), but National Collegiat Athletic Association rules forbi the telecast of regional open-cir cult television if there are an: games being played in a 90-mil radius. There are five such games ben played. Officials of both schools ex 'Pressed regret that more fan may, not be allowed to see th game via TV or any sort. Premier Asks Approval Vote *Deskins, Willie Smith, and Gerry Marciniak some linemen in the 230-lb. category. Southern California, on the other hand, has Dan Ficca, a 230- lb. tackle, and Monte Clark, a booming 249-lb. man on the op- posite side. There is only one man in the starting line who isn't over 200. Michigan scouts Matt Patanelli and Don Dufek praised the Tro- jan line highly, saying, "they are huge . . . that's what wrecked Oregon State." Upsets Oregon State The Southern Cal outfit has the advantage of having played one game - in which they surprising- ly downed the Oregon Staters, 21-0. The Oregon crew were reigning champs of the Pacific Coast Conference, and were ex- pected to be tough again this year. The teams also compare evenly in speed. Both boastsome fast backs, while Michigan may have the edge in power. The Trojans' ground game is wrapped up in three fleet runners, Willie, Wood, Bob Arnett and Rex Johnston. Michigan also has speed in Brad Myers and Fred Julien, but these boys are also rugged when hitting the line. Add to this the, bruising running of captain John Herrnstein from fullback and the passing of quarterback Bob Pta- cek, and one finds a diversified offense ready to ,test the Trojans. Injury Riddled The condition of many injured players is the key to Michigan's chances for victory. Although only two, centers Jim Byers and Dick Syring, are definitely lout of action, there are many other frontline men who have been in- jured in the past few weeks.

List loan Gifts, Federal Aid By JOHN WEICHER Daily City Editor University Regents yesterday added $200,000 to student loan funds, while authorizing applica- tion for an additiona $250,000 from the federal government. The funds would bring the total available to $1,900,000. Two hundred thousand dollars from the estate of the late Della Noble of Pontiac was used to aug- ment the loan fund. The -bequest brings the total loan funds now available to2students to approxi- mately $250,000, Vice-'resident for Student Affairs James A. Lewis estimated. Aid Next Semester Federal aid should be available by the beginning of next semes- ter, Vice-President - for Business and Finance Wilbur K. PierpontS told the Regents. The University will be seeking the maximum allowed any cob- lege unde' the new federal aid to educatio nlaw, Lewis said. The funds will be distributed on a percentage basis, with each col- lege getting a share of the total funds pr'oportional to its percent- age of the total number of stu- dents in the country. The University stands secondj among American colleges in loan funds available to students. Only Harvard University, with $2,600,- 000, has more. Demand Rising Despite this, University loan funds are being used almost as fast as they can be made avail- able, Pierpont noted, In thelast two years, the Regents have add- ed more than $500,000 to loan funds, to meet the rising demand. Prior to this, loan funds were more than adequate to meet re- quests. Regent Eugene B. Power ex- pressed the hope that a long-term loan plan could be established, with repayment beginning three to five years after graduation. U Regents LAccept Giftis The University Regents accept- ed gifts, grants and bequests to- taling $286,957.06 at their meet- ing yesterday. From the Board in Control of Intercollegiate Athletics, $20,684 was accepted for the Elmer Gedeon Memorial Scholarships. Two grants were accepted by the Regents from the W. K. Kel- logg Foundation, Battle Creek. One of $10,000 is to establish a loan fund for graduate students in hospital administration and the other of $8,193 represents the final payment on the dental teacher program. The Regents accepted $12,150 from Miss Mary F. Stevens, Grosse Pointe Farms. The grant establishes the Mary F. Stevens Scholarship and Fellowship Fund in Science and Engineering. The fund is to provide two fel- l lowships of $2,500 each for two - advance predoctoral students in e mathematics of the physical sci- ences, two fellowships each of f $2,500 for a fifth year of study in the graduate school by two t senior men in the College of En- gineering and $2,150 to be used See UNIVERSITY, Page 2 * * * * * * * Appoint S tirton Dearbor Of New Ikse Accused- Of Deception By Faubus LITTLE ROCK, Ark. W) -Gov. Orval E. Faubus accused President Eisenhower yesterday of joining a "campaign of deception and propa- ganda" in the special election in Little Rock today on the question of integrating the city's schools. He said federal officials are try- ing to deceive the people into be- lieving they must vote for Integra- tion in order to reopen the public schools. . Feelings Run High The city is electric with race feeling and excitement over the Nvote on allowing Negroes to enroll in all-white schools. Gov. Faubus, citing actions of the groups and individuals in the city who have been urging people to vote for integration as the only means of opening the schools, said: "These facts and circumstances are, of course, the reason for the campaign of deception and propa- ganda that is being waged by the people of Little Rock. Cites Reason "It Is the reason for the issuance of a statement by Attorney Gen. William Rogers, and for the issu- ance of an additional statement by President Eisenhower." "These integrationists know full well their only hope of winning this election is to deceive enough of you." Gov. Faubus said earlier today that 'his speech would be a "dis- cussion of the issues" and that he would not try to persuade people how to vote. Faubus Assures Voters He assured the voters, as he did in a speech last week, that he has a sound, workable plan for putting the public schools under private operation without allowing Negroes to enroll. "I do not get into a situation without knowing what I am do- ing," he said. "If what these inte- grationists say is true, I would tell you so." Fear Satellite Test Failure CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (A')- The United States fired a "weather eye" satellite toward space today, but the chances of a successful orbit appeared to be slim. The 72-foot rocket blazed aloft at 10:38 a.m., EST., but three hours later there was only a blanket of silence. The chances that the U.S. would successfully blast its fifth satellite into orbit looked good when it was announced minutes after the spec- tacular launching that the rocket's three phases had performed flaw- lessly.

The well-organized operation put troops in control of all the major cities and towns in this. southeast Asian republic, which shares a 1,500-mile border with Communist China. The Army said it was acting to preserve democracy and law and order as well as put an end to political strife which has pro- duced most of the trouble in Bur- ma since the British granted in- depedence '10 years ago. Army leaders said one of the nation's political groups had been building up secret arms stocks to wipe out all opposition and take over the country. JOAN KAATZ are doing an adequate job," he said. "There is no need for us to duplicate work already being done," he continued. Describes Location The Dearborn Community Col- lege will be locating their buildings on land contiguous to the Uni- versity's, Stirton explained, and "it is possible that we will share facilities to some extent." The Center is being built on a 210 acre plot donated by the Ford Foundation along with $6,500,000 for the construction of a branch of the University. Donated in December The land and money were don- ated in December, 1956 and in January, 1957 the Regents set up the administrative organization for the Center. Presently four buildings are under constructions - a general classroom building, a library, an engineering building and a faculty office building. See DEARBORN, Page 3 Charles P. CcCurdy, executive secretary of the State Universities Association, advised development1 counselors for the University to1 "utilize every weapon at yourE command to combat the pressures for uniformity and conformity in' our colleges and universities." Speaking at the Development Council conference dinner in the Union last night, McCurdy said the counsellors must take the of- fensive side in answering attacks on state universities. Cites Challenge The challenge which develop- ment counsellors ought to be most concerned about are those attacks upon the fundamental philosophy of the state universities' origin, he continued. These attacks are based on the rapidly developing theory that the state universities ought not to furnish low-cost higher education but rather should charge the student the full cost of his education. Details Theory McCurdy elaborated further on "higher education enthusiasts" ramifications of this theory. One of these alternatives is to let state and federal government develop scholarship programs for those. unable to pay higher fees. "The only trouble with this is that no one has yet to figure out just how much a huge scholarship program will cost if it is to be an effective one," he emphasized. "The next solution proposed by these high tuition enthusiasts is the loan fund - buying education on the installment plan," McCur- dy said. Street Fights D.isruptCity from 1944 to 1951.
