'M' ICERS LOSE, 41: Denver Exploits Errors -Daily-Len Lofstrom PILE-UTP-Denver and Michigan hockey players collide head-on in front of the Denver net. Michigan was able to put the puck into the Denver net only. once during the game while Denver scored four times capitalizing on Michigan errors. CLA RK SETS .RECO0RD: Ho'os iersSwamp Woverines, 62-39 special to The Daily BLOOMINGTON-Indiana, performing to near perfection, over- whelmed Michigan 62-39 in the packed new Indiana Varsity Pool last night. The Hoosiers won all but three of the 11 events of the meet. In one of those, the 400-yard freestyle relay, the Hoosiers were disquali- fled. Mike Troy of Indiana and Michigan's Ron Clark set American and NCAA records in their respective specialties, the butterfly and the breaststroke. Indiana's Alan Som- ers also set an NCAA record in the 440-yd. freestyle. Hoosiers Take Early Lead { Michigan Coach Gus Stager gambled at the outset with a load- ed Medley Relay combination of Alex Gaxiola, Dick Nelson, Dave Gillanders,and Frank Legacki, but the Wolvetines fasiled to catch the quick starting Hoosier quartet of Frank McKinney, Ken Naka- sone, Troy, and Tom Verth. The winners set a record of 3:38.8, although slower than an earlier 3:37.7 pending, which had Terry Labardie of Battle Creek substituting for Troy in the but- terfly leg; Michigan was clocked in a new Varsity Record of 3:41.6. Margin Increases Pete Sintz increased the Indi- ana margin in the next event, the 220-yd. freestyle, defeating Michi- gan Olympian Bill Darnton by half a yard. Sintz was clocked in 2:02.3 RON CLARK and Darnton in 2:02.8. ..sNCAA record The Hoosiers put the meet vir- See 'CLARK,' Page 6 WANTS FISCAL REFORM: By DAVE ANDREWS Michigan's hockey team skated Denver to a standstill last night, but the opportunist Pioneers, capitalizing on every Wolverine error and picking up a few breaks along the way, waltzed off with a 4-1 victory. The victory clinched the Wes- tern Collegiate Hockey League championship for Denver, but Michigan still held second place in the WCHA as Minnesota whip- ped Michigan Tech's pressing Huskies, 5-1, last night. The Wolverines are still faced with the seemingly impossible task of beating the Pioneers to- night to avoid dropping into third place behind Tech should the Huskies win tonight against Min- nesota. Game time here is 8:00 p m. at the Coliseum. The Wolverines were victimized at every turn last night. 'M' Dominates Early After Michigan had dominated the initial 15 minutes of action, Denver took acantage of the first Wolverinemistg b twhen Ken Wil- liamson and Jerry Duff as caught Michigan in the middle of a line change at 16:51. As the Wolverines jumped on and off the ice directly in front of the Michigan bench, Duff as took Williamson's short lob pass at the blue line and skated in on goalie Jim Coyle to score. Even at that the Wolverines weren't out of the game as just 49 seconds into the second period Larry Babcock got what everyone in the rink but Referee Marty Pavelich thought was the equal- izer. The disputed call came on a Michigan power play. Light Went On The light went on behind D's All-American goalie George Kirk- wood, but Pavelich ruled no goal. This seemed to take some of the steam out of Michigan and the Pioneers wasted little time in tak- ing a 2-0 lead. This time it was another All- American. Jerry Walker, who flashed the light at 5:02. Walker got the goal, but it was center Bill Masterton who did all the work.

Firemen's work was hamperedt by the discovery of leaking gsf lines leading to the dryers in the quadrangle basement. Firemen hadr to hold their hands over the leaksc to prevent the gas from spread-t ing; Gauss said.g The Ann Arbor Fire Department arrived on the scene shortly after.t No immediate cause of the firet was stated.C The fire department is at pres-t ent investigating the matter, ac-r cording to Gauss. .Dartmouth TO Support Beta Protest By MICHAEL OLINICK Dartmouth College officials yes- terday pledged support to the campus Beta Theta Pi chapter on its decision to cut off affiliation with its national fraternity "I am proud of the initiative and high principles displayed by our undergraduae members," Dean of the college Thaddeus Bey- mour said." The Dartmouth Betas charged racial discrimination by the na- tional in connection with pledging procedures at Williams College and "hypocrisy" in its dealings with the Dartmouth unit. Administration Backs "The administration is solidly behind us and has encouraged us to stick by our decision," Oak Win- ters, president of the Dartmouth Betas said. The severance of ties with na- tional came because the Betas at the Hanover, N. H. college felt the national has held up the initiation of the Beta pledge class of Wil- liams for "too long a period" be- cause one of the pledges is a Negro student. The national issued an Inun- tion preventing the initiation of the pledges last November. It is still in effect. Cites Letter The Dartmouth group also cited a letter sent to the Dartmouth Undergraduate Council claiming that members of all major racial and religious groups were Betas. The letter, sent out by the na- tional, conflicted with the action at Williams 'and with statements by the national's general secretary that he knew of no Negroes in any Beta chapter. Winters also charged that the national had put undue pressure on the Beta chapter at Bowdoin College when it pledged a Negro student last fall. The boy de- pledged of his own volition. "We are making as strong a protest as possible," Winter said. "We are going to contact every chapter and alumni group and ex- plain our stand." Plans No Action Victor Mix, '62E;Beta president at the University, said he had not known of the Dartmouth group's action until yesterday. He re- iterated his explanation that his chapter was planning no action in the situation until a final de- cision has been made. "What's been done at Williams is not de- finite. We are waiting until every- thing is final and all the informa- tion has been collected." Interfraternity Council Presi- dent Jon Trost, '61, said that such a protest as those registered by the Dartmouth Betas and the Alpha Tau Omegas at Stanford (who are resisting an order from the national fraternity to de- pledge four Jewish students) "af- fect the entire fraternity move- ment." Determine Direction These protest actions help de- termine the direction in which fraternities will move. "The effect on the national is greater than may appear at first. The ramifi- cations of one local out of a hun- dred member chapters is much' greater than one per cent." The decision to cut off ties with the national is an expression of the local's prerogative to drop out+ of the national structure if it feels that the ideas and goals of the national are not compatible witht its own views, Trost said. .

John B. Swainson indicated yesterday that he might veto any bills to extend so-called nuisance taxes beyond June 30 wheni they are scheduled to expire. Swainson made the comment when asked about a union leader's statement urging that the $50 million package of taxes on tobacco, beer, whiskey and other items be retained. They were enacted in Dec., 1959. The Governor said he feels now that he might veto any legislation calling for a nuisance " tax extension. He added, how- INDIFFERENT R ever:E "The situation at the time (that such bills came to his desk) is The suggestion that the taxes Pickete be retained came from Leonard B Woodcock, a United Auto Workers vice-president and chairman of ..... e.. the Wayne State University Board of Governors.

"They all have demonstrated r their needs, and I hope they will support my program for fiscal re- form which will bring in the needed funds," he said. "But I don't agree that the ex- tension of the nuisance taxes would be any solution to our fiscal problems." A SPONSE: rs Protest Lumumba's Death By BEATRICE TEODORO General ,indifference marked the Ann Arbor reaction to a 13 man demonstration yesterday protesting the murder of Patrice Lumumba. Carrying placards that read "Vive Lumumba" and "Belgium, Save the UN, Quit the Congo" the group walked from the Diag down Liberty to Main Street and returned to the campus. They received some comment from about 50 onlookers who milled quietly on the Diag but got little attention on the streets. Disapproved Killing The group made the protest because "it did not approve of killing," Sela El-Dareer, one of the demonstrators said. "This is a formal solemn protest. It is not important whether it achieves any- thing or not. At least the opinion has been voiced. The authorities should do whatever they see fit." El-Dareer said the demonstration supported the presence of United Nations troops in the Congo until "the easing of tension." He said that the Belgian troops have "no place in the Congo." The demonstration was not organized by any single group but was the expression of individuals, El-Dareer, a United Arab Republic '. :U:
