Fake Councilmenj Warn Freshmen 0o Rushing Violation An official anouncement from the offices of the Interfraternity council last night disclosed the lat- est student racket in regard to de- ferred pledging. In the last 24 hours there have been numerous telephone calls to fraternities and freshmen, it was revealed, stating that the caller was an officer of the Interfraternity council and that the fraternity, or, first year man, was being watched by this body because of violations of the rushing rules. It was believed that these calls were being made to prevent un- fair rushing by fraternities. Interfraternity council officers denied all knowledge of these calls and said that they had not been made by anyone of official capac- ity. A warning to fraternities tell- ing them that they should in no way associate with first year men until 6 o'clock, Monday night, was issued by Howard Gould, secretary- treasurer. Gould stated that fresh- men should turn in their preference lists to the office of the dean of students by noon today. Frater- nities and freshmen will be notified as to the results of pledging on Monday morning, it was announc- ed. Formal pledgingdwill take place at 6 o'clock Monday. The preference lists will be checked over by the office of the dean of students and will be re- checked by Howard T. Worden, president of the Interfraternity council, and Gould. Fraternities with complaints will not be allowed to see the lists, it was stated, because many houses wish that those submitted be kept private.

WO LES, GOPHER BATTLE TO H TIE Failure to Tally in Two Overtime Periods Ends Michigan's Title Hopes. In the fastest, most exciting hockey game played on Michigan's home rink in several years, a strong Minnesota sextet last night came from behind in the third period and tied the score at 1-1 whereit remained through two overtime periods. Fist fighting featured the spec- tacle when the players of both teams mixed with certain regular- ity. The second overtime period Parker and Reid started a general free-for-all that was staged in front of the press box and drew in the sport writers, coaches, substi- tutes and trainers. Joe Frumkes rose from his sick bed to score his first goal against major competition this season by taking a quickpass from Crossman in the second period and pounding the disk past Goalie Clausen for Michigan's only score. Reid, Crossman Stopped. Emmy Reid and Keith Crossman were stopped for the first time this year by the best front line Michi- gan has faced in Macnnis, Parker, and Toth. These Gophers started hurrying Michigan's attack even before it got started and kept up a Tonight's hockey game at the Coliseum will not begin until 8:30, in order to permit spectt- ors to witness the track meet. There will be no a4vance in the price. continual fight for the puck all throughathe contest. Their front line however, could not readily pierce Michigan's defense of Wil- liams and Chapman, although they rolled up an unusually large num- ber of shots. Captain Tompkins was called upon to stop 38 shots in ad- dition to the one that gotaway from him, while Glausen stopped 22. After Michigan scored in the sec- ond, Minnesotaakept two front line- men at top speed in an effort to score but were held at bay until the middle of the third. Parker passed the disk tokToth from the side and Toth took a shot at the net. The puck hit Tompkins leg and carromed off into the net. Tompkins was bewildered for a moment and would not believe that the puck was in the net. Final Attempts Fail. In the two overtime periods, Coach Lowrey threw caution to the wind in an effort to win. He pulled Williams and left Chapman with all the defense duties and used four forwards. However Minensota' rose to the occasion with a series of poke-checks that did not allow Michigan many open shots at the net. The Wolverines saw the fastest skating sextet in the history of Minnesota out-skate them. Four sophomores made up the Gophers starting team and they were un- usually cool under fire. Ted Chapman was hit in the eye with the puck but recovered and played out the contest. It was his courageous leaps at the puck in front of the net, with skates flash- ing all around him, that saved sev- eral would-be goals. SUMMARIES: Michigan (1) Minnesota, (1) Tompkins G.

The letter, addressed to Mrs. Charles Lindbergh, was not opened but sent on to its destination.

Sender of Note Asking Ranso Held in Hartfo HOPEWELL, N.J., March 4.-(AP)-An offer to deal direc and confidentially with the kidnappers of their blue-eyed young s was made personally today by Col. and Mrs. Charles A. Lindberg Just 62 hours after the child was stolen from his sickbed, t two anxious parents, who have seen a mountain of clues and lea fade one by one into insignificance, signed their names to a tyl written statement. It pledged them not "to try to injure in any w those connected with the return of the child," and to observe fa- f ully any promise. The 145-word message to the kidnappers emphasizing that t Lindbergh's only interest was in the immediate and safe return their baby boy, made it clear that their willingness to meet a $50,C ransom demand, had failed to obtain any response.
