Oklahoma A. & M., with three na-
tiona champions retaining their
titles, last night won the team cham-
pionship in the National Intercol-
legiate wrestling meet held at the In-
tramural Building, with a total of 29
points.
Indiana, Big Ten champions, took
second with 19 points, Oklahoma U.
had 14 points, Southwestern Teach-
ers College, Okla., 13, and Lehigh, 7.
Ben Bishop, Lehigh, winner of the
155 pound title, was awarded the
coaches' trophy as the outstanding
man in the tournament. The award
last year went to Alan Keller of
Okclahoma A. & M., who last night
champions entered, successfully de-
successfully defended his 145-pound
title.
Thee Cowboy trio of champions,
Kelley, Rex Peery, and Ross Flood
alone accounted for 21 points to
guarantee the tem championship for
the. Agies.
Devine Defaults
All but one of the five individual
champions entered successfully de-
fended their titles, Pat Devine, of In-
diana, at 135 pounds, being the lone
champion to fall.
Devine entered the finals by virtue
of a close victory over Jack Harrod
of Michigan in the semi-final round,
but was forced to default when an
arm infection sent him under physi-
cians' care with a high temperature.
Wayne Martin of Oklahoma U. was
automatically declared the winner.
In an exhibition bout Harrod was
pinned by Martin in 8:07 with a
cross-scissors and head lock after the
advantage had changed several times
to make it one of the fastest bouts
of the meet.
Ralph Teague, Southwestern
Teachers College heavyweight, suc-
cessfully defended his title by pin-
ning Barney Cosneck of Illinois, the
Big Ten champion, with a head scis-
sors in 9:16."
Mosier Places Second
Michigan gained its only points as
Art Mosier, the Wolverine captain,
placed second in the 145 pound divi-
sion. Mosier met Kelley, of Okla-
homa A. & M., the defending cham-
pion, in the finals after defeating
Larson of Iowa U. in the afternoon.
The two presented diametrically
opposed styles of wrestling and the
fast working methods of Kelley tri-
umphed over the smooth style of
Mosier. Kelley "went behind on a
referee's hold at the end of two min-
utes of sparring and successfully rode
the Michigan ace for the four min-
utes. In the second period Mosier
failed to keep his advantage, and

Cabinet Divided
In Opinion On
Oil Controversy
WASHINGTON, March 24. -(P) --
It was reported in usually reliable
oil circles today that a sharp dif-
ference of opinion existed between
the Interior and Justice Departments
over the advisability of the action
taken by the Federal Government in
obtaining indictments against the
Standard Oil Co. of California, The
Associated Oil Co., three asserted sub-
sidiaries and 41 individuals for al-
leged oil code violations.
It was said that the position
taken by Secretary Harold L. Ickes,
t'he oil administrator, in a commu-
nication with Attorney General Ho-
mer S. Cummings was that he did
not believe that the matters com-
plained of by the Justice Department
constituted code violations.
Ickes declined flatly to comment
in any way today on the return
of the indictments.
Reports were circulated in the Cap-
ital today that Kenneth R. Kings-

My Dear Mr. Connellan:
Your letter of March 8 has been referred to this
office for reply. You are correct in your under-
standing that beer is sold in certain of the Univer-
sity's dining halls.
Our experience of the last six months is that the
availability and consumption of beer has had no
undesirable effect on the habits of our students, nor
has it, so far as we can determine, resulted in an
increase in our disciplinary problems.
The availability of beer in the dining halls has,
further, given rise to practically no criticism or
objection on the part of people who it might have
been expected would oppose it.
Whether or not our dining halls sell beer probably
has no effect on the amount of beer consumed by
the students, since there must be twenty private
points of sale within a quarter mile of the campus.
Rather, the upshot has been that a large proportion
of the beer that our students consume has been
secured by them under conditions that have the
advantage of being controllable.
Yours very truly
(Signed)

The surprising Detroit Red Wings

The New Deal as an extension of
public utility regulation to private
business is discussed by Prof. Edwin
C. Goddard, and the background,
provisions and effects of the Secur-
ities Act of 1933 are set forth by Prof.
Laylin K. James, both of the Law
School, in the March issue of the
Michigan Law Review, which ap-
peared recently.
Legislation regulating private bus-
iness, states Professor Goddard, whose
article is entitled "Public Utility
Law," may be upheld on the grounds
that a national emergency exists, but

measures at least a sympathetic con-
sideration."
In mentioning thepossibility of the
appointment in the near future of a
new justice to the Supreme Court,
Professor Goddard writes that "the
choice of the successor lies with a
President who is sure to seek one of a
mind that puts human above prop-
erty rights."
Professor James states, in his ar-
ticle, "The Securities Act of 1933,"
that "fundamental changes are apt
to develop in securities marketing,"
unless the provisions of the act are
modified.
Reserved Seats
Tickets for the 25th annual Union
Opera, "With Banners Flying," will
be placed on sale for the first time
tomorrow, using the exchange sys-
tem. All members of the Union's
,student staff will distribute them.
Prices range from 55 cents for bal-
cony seats to $1.25 for those in boxes.
Intermediate between these are seats
at 88 cents and $1.10.
The exchange system of tickets
involves offering stubs for sale which
later may be turned in at the Union
office for reserved seats. Allen Mc-
Combs, '35, ticket chairman, said that
the advantage of buying these lies
in the fact that they will be given
preference when the reservations are
opened.
Monday, April 2, has been tenta-
tively set as the date on which these
stubs may be exchanged for reserved
seats. They will be good for any of
the six performances and a stub may

Formal approval was granted last
