No. 79 Z-323 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, SATURDAY, JAN. 13, 1939 Soviet Planes Bomb Fininish Cities; Britons Raid Nazi Isle English, German Airmen Make Scouting Trips; Balkan Heads Confer Presidential Putsch Halted In Ecuador, (By The Associated Press) Soviet Russian airmen rained bombs on at least a dozen cities in southern Finland yesterday in air raids which cut Helsinki's telephone communication with the world and silenced a radio station at Lahti, im- portant railway junction north of the capital. Friday definitely was a big day for. aviators in both of Europe's wars as British airmen reported flights over German cities and the bombing of a scooted England's eastern coast for the fourth consecutive day. The Russian raids, although pro- ducing one of the heaviest bombings of the month-and-a-half-old war, failed to cause much damage except at Lahti. There the casualties were not determined several hours after I mm Quintet To Meet Hawkeyes Tonight; Pucksters 'To Face IllinoisAgain 'ul information" was statement said-, by ,rs flying over Ham- t, Bremen and the in- district. anes appeared over theast shore and the k and Yorkshire coasts d out to sea by planes aft batteries. t, King Carol of Ru- is ministers a confi-' on his secret confer- ago with Regent Prince slavia.

By CHRIS VIZAS A victory over Iowa's basketball squad tonight at the Field House will leave the Wolverines in the same position that they were before game time, the "dark horse" in the Big Ten title race, but if the Hawkeyes should win Michigan's stock will take a decided fall. By fscoring its third straight tri- umph in the Conference race, Mich- igan can keep its slate clean and re- tain at least a partial hold on first place along with Purdue and In- diana, who are favored to win against Wisconsin nd Minnesota respective- ly. Need Early Start If the six regulars, who have been carrying the whole load so far, can break their habit of getting off to a slow start by piling up a commanding; lead, Coach Bennie Oosterbaan will get. an opportunity to test several of the reserves he has been forced to hold back because the games have been close. Any coach is averse to breaking up a smooth working com- bination, especially in a nip-and- tuck affair. Although given a decided edge over Coach Rollie Williams' quintet, which has lost its last six games, the Wolverines are not taking the game for grantedsand Coach Oosterbaan will start his regular five. As Oosterbaan stated, "Iowa is a young and green team which hasn't found itself, but it is liable to hit its stride and break into a scoring rash any night." Williams Agrees Backing hin up is hawkeye Coach Rollie Willia who declared at the beginning of the season that Iowa was "just fair but very likely to im- prove." Add to this the recent com- plaint of the Hawkeye mentor that his team's chief inability in the last few games has been to cash in on the great number of scoring chances. While Michigan is set on its start- ing line-up for tonight, Williams is certain of only two positions. The only definite starters are Vic Siegel, sophomore forward who is leading Iowa's scorers with 81 points, and Paul Siglin, sophomore guard who broke into the starting line-up against Indiana Monday. Bill Wheeler, another first year man, has been getting the opening (Continued on Page 3) Finnish Flms To Be Shown Pictures To Be Presented With TalkBy Benz Motion pictures of Finland and Scandinavia will be presented next week in the school auditoriums of Ann Arbor as part of the current drive here to raise funds for 'the aid of Finland, Rudolph E.

Lowrey Men Are Favored To Win Second Game In Conference Series By LARRY ALLEN Their first Big Ten victory of the season a matter of record as result of a 3-1 win over Illinois' hockey team Thursday, the Wolverines will try to go whole .hog tonight at the Coliseuin and make it two straight over Vic Heyliger's Illini puckchasers. The Orange-and-blue invaders will be gunning for their first victory this season, having fallen before Minnesota last week prior to going down under Michigan's three goal attack in the final period here Thurs- day night, Michigan Favored Illinois will have to step tonight if the boys from Champaign expect to stdp the Wolverines, for the Low- reymen hit an all-season low for aggressiveness in the first game. Michigan lacked speed and fight in the first two periods, and their three- goal rally in the final stanza was the redeeming factor of the contest. They should come back even stronger to- night. Two of the Wolverine tallies in the two goal splurge came from the stick of defenseman Charley Ross who scored both times on solo dashes that went the length of the ice through the entire Illinois squad. The other Michigan score came by Paul Goldsmith on a pass in front of the net from Gil Samuelson, after Charley Ross had again carried the puck into the visitors' defense zone. Goldsmith's play showed a decided improvement over his past perform- ances. He exhibited more aggres- siveness, and is timing was much better, thus minimizing the number of offsides that were called. James Was Hurried In the nets, Capt. Spike James was not given much to do until the last period, when he had to face five- man Illinois rushes as the visitors turned on the pressure in attempts to even the count. 'Several times, too, Joe Lotzer, who sparked Illinois' at- tack skated rightin on him alone, but the lanky Canadian moved too quick- ly and prevented a .score. Heyliger will start the same lineup tonight as he did in Thursday's game. Jack Gillan, a sophomore on the squad will be in the nets. In the (Continued on Page 3) Mine. Fla gstad To Give Recital Here Monday ;ngle tickets for Kirsten Flag- stad's recital Monday, the seventh in the annual Choral Union series, may still be obtained at the School of Music and at the Hill Auditorium box-off ice, Dr. Charles A. Sink, presi- dent of the University Musical So- ciety, announced last night. Her third appearance here, this may be the last chance Ann Arbor music-goers will have to hear the dis- tinguished Norwegian soprano. Ma- dame Flagstad told reporters rel-'t- ly that she intends to retire after this year's concert and operatic engage- ments. However, no definite confir- mation has been announced. Six season at the Metropolitan have established Madame Flagstad as the foremost Wagnerian heroine in the operatic world. But, con- trary to popular opinion, her back- ground is not limited, for she has sung 68 different roles-38 in grand opera and 30 in operettas and comic operas. At Monday's recital,. Madame Flagstad will be accompanied by Ed- win McArthur who recently has won marked success as a conductor of Wagnerian opera in San Francisco and Chicago. Campus Religious Magazine Issues Call For Material A call for literary contributions to the "Religious Forum," newest cam- pus publication, was made yesterday by John Huston, '41, Student Reli- gious Association publications man- ager. The new publication will try some- thing quite different in the way of magazines edited by religious groups, according to Huston, who described the Forum as a place for debate on of modern English poetry, concluded his lecture yesterday afternoon in the Rackham Auditorium, the audience clapped and began to leave. They were slow in leaving. Most of them formed in small, argumentative circles to discuss what they had heard. The theory that Mr. Auden had slowly, haltingly, at times almost in- coherently, expounded took time and thought to piece together, to under- stand. The audience was apparently on its way home before it began to grasp the full implications of Auden's lecture. Gradually his listeners came to agree upon the modern paradox that was his thesis, the paradox that from the sense of loneliness and suffering of modern men, caught in the imper- sonality of the machine age, comes the recognition of the unity of indi- viduals and the possibility of estab- lishing a common order.' The writer of the Romantic school, Mr. Auden explained, drew apart from the world and attempted to create order in a world of his own making, since all art is the creation of order within a typical medium. Modern poetry, however, has come to realize a new sense of order-an order which can be developed by the artist from the loneliness of machine-age man. If this is true, Auden pointed out, the artist and people now become identical, but not, in the Marxian sense, identical through common ow- nership of property. Man's common bonds today are his needs and suf- ferings. Deis To Give Talkt On Cooperatives Pictures and a lecture on "Co- operatives In Michigan" will be pre- sented by Mr. Glen Keis of the Mich- igan Wholesale Cooperative Society at a meeting of student and local cooperatives at 3 p.m. tomorrow in the Union. Admiral Matt Mann Prepares. is Mariners For OSU Meet By DON WIRTCHAFTER (Special to The Daily) COLUMBUS, Jan. 12.-Michigan's highly touted naval forces settled out- side Columbus harbor tonight and began making final preparations for tomorrow's important sea battle with th eBuckeyes from Olim State. Not since the Graf Spee set into Montivideo port has there been so much excitement created over a fight on the water, but the battle tomorrow again brings together Admiral Matt Mann of the Wolverine fleet and Ad- miral Mike Peppe, pilot of the Ohio forces, renewing their bitter rivalry over the supremacy of the nation's inland waters. Observers here tonight looked for- Wolverines. Not since 1937 has Michigan won a dual swimming meet from Ohio. Two years ago Mann's mermen lost both decisions to the Buckeye forces' and last winter the two swimming powers fought to a standstill. Their fwo 42-42 dead- locks created natatorial history. There was an air of confidence that arose from theuMichigan fleet as it ly anchored outside the harbor to- night, Not since the Exeter, Ajax and Achilles joined up off the coast of Uruaguay has there been such a gathering of naval power. Mann has 14 of the Western Con- ference and National Collegiate champions readyto match against the Buckeyes. Capt. Hel Benham,
