Arriving from Detroit by plane for a special meeting of his executive council, Martin at first announced that charges of "discrimination and intimidation" already had been filed against Ford. Confer With Bowen Later, however, he said union of- ficials had been conferring in Detroit for several days with Frank Bowen, regional labor board director, but that he did not know whether formal charges had been presented. "We have plenty of evidence against Ford," the union chief de- clared, adding that plans for organ- izing Ford workers already had been' drawn. . Bennett 'Not Worrying' In Detroit, Harry H. bennett, per- sonnel director of the Ford company, told reporters it was not worrying about any charges the union may bring "because they are a lot of hot air." Should the labor board call a hear- ing to determine if Ford has violated, the Wagner Labor Relations Act, it would be the first involving a major manufacturing interest since the Su- preme Court recently upheld the Wagner law. 6 Sophomores Are Involved In Auto Crash Six University students were in- jured on their way home for vaca- tion when their car skidded across' the road and turned over in flames 15 miles from Harrisburg, Pa., at, about 6 a.m. Friday, April 9.

Fishman's pitching today was the finest of his collegiate career and resulted in his 11th straight tri- umph, having never been beaten in college baseball. While Fishman's hurling was draw- ing the plaudits of the packed stands, the fielding at the hot corner by Sophomore Walter Peckinpaugh alsoa brought the fans to their feet several times as he would come up with sen- sational stops. In all he accepted nine chances without an error, throwing all of these hitters out at first with a powerful whip across the infield. Michigan scored lone counters i % the fifth and sixth frames, Vic Hey i liger crossing the plate in the fifth and Steve Uricek tallying in the sixth.
