scoring -was 4zonfined to two innings,
and all of the Wolverine hits were
collected in the fifth, when Indiana

the result of a walk, a stolen base,
an outfield fly, and a double steal in
the eighth.

second inning, as Al Kralovansky got
on on an error, advanced to third on

ROME, May 19-Field Marshal Sir Harold Alexander declared today
that Marshal Tito apparently intended to resort to force in backing Yugo-
slavia's claims to northeastern Italy and southern Austria-a course of
action "all too reminiscent of Hitler, Mussolini and Japan."
Belgrade radio broadcast Tito's reply that the Yugoslav army, the
same as other Allied armies, had the right to remain in territory it liberated
and the presence of his troops in the disputed zone would not "prejudge
decisions of the peace conference as to whom these territories belong."

His former roommate had pressed

man denied wearing the trousers, his
erstwhile roommate indignantly of-
fered to bring out his own suit coat
that would match the pants exactly
and definitely establish rightful own-
ership.
