Criticism of 'U'
on Housing Denied
By HANK KEISER
Michigan's 1945-46 basketball
squad, shooting for its second win of
the season, will meet Michigan State
at 7:30 p.m. tonight in Yost Field
House.
Head Coach Bennie Oosterbaan,
Wolverine cage tutor, failed to an-
nounce his starting team, but named
seven candidates from which the var-
sity would be picked.
Feinberg or Harrison at Pivot
Either Marty Feinberg or Bob Har-
rison will step into the center berth
tonight, accordingto Barclay. Harri-
son also doubles at forward, and may
possibly be seen at that spot.
Glen Selbo, Dave Strack, and Bill
Walton make up the roster of for-
ward candidates. Selbo scored 14
points in the tilt with Central Michi-
gan earlier this season, while Strack
and Walton garnered seven and four
points, respectively, against the Chip-
pewas.
Lettermen at Guards
Top men on the list of guard.hope-
fuls are Walt Kell and John Mul-
laney, both lettermen from last sea-
son's squad. Kell and Mullaney han-
dled first string assignments on the
'44 crew and are well acquainted with
the Michigan system of play.
Facing the Wolverines tonite will
be a team composed entirely of letter-
winners, all of whom have had ex-
perience in Spartan varsity basket-

Vincent Sheean
Listed as Third
Series Speaker
The third speaker in the Oratorical
Lecture series, appearing Wednesday
at Hill Auditorium, will be Vincent
Sheean, war correspondent, author
and lecturer.
Sheean, author of "Not Peace But
a Sword" and "Personal History," has
chosen as his topic "Personal Opin-
ions." He has recently returned from
Europe, where he spent five months
with General Patton's Third Army.
One of Sheean's first assignments
after he graduated from the Univer-
sity of Chicago was the Arab-Jewish
hostilities in Jerusalem in 1928. Other
events he observed in his early years
were the occupation of the Ruhr, the
Lausanne conference, the Fascist
march on Rome and the overthrow
of the monarchists in Spain.
After a period of fiction writing,
when he produced "San Felice", "The
Day of Battle" and "Piece of a Fan",
he went to Spain in 1938, then to
Austria and later to Germany, where
he covered the march into the Su-
detenland.
Richard Wright
Postpones Talk
Richard Wright, Negro author and
lecturer scheduled to speak here on
Dec. 11, has postponed his lecture be-
cause of illness, and Madame Francis
Perkins has agreed to appear here on
that date.
Mr. Wright's lecture will be post-
poned for only a short time. Its new
date will be announced as soon as
possible, the Oratorical Association
said today.
"The Destiny of Labor in America"
will be Miss Perkins' topic. She re-
turned to the United States just two
days ago after attending the Inter-
national Labor Conference in Eng-
land. The season-ticket coupon for
her lecture scheduled for Jan. 16 will
be honored for her lecture on Dec. 11.
The Oratorical Association urges
purchasers of single admission tickets
for the Richard Wright lecture to
keep them until the new date is an-
nounced.
Directors Discuss
Summer Sessions
Provisions for greatly increased en-
rollments next summer were dis-
cussed at the national meeting of the
Association of Deans and Directors
of Summer Sessions yesterday in the
Horace H. Rackham Building.

tend today's session and enter the
By DES HOWARTH
It will be a battle of youth tonight
when the Wolverine puckmen clash
with the powerful Windsor Spitfires
in the season's opener at the Coli-
seum.
Coach Vic Heyliger announced that
he will have three lines and two sets
of defensemen ready for tonight's
encounter. The starting line will be
composed of Gordon MacMillian at
center, with Bill Jacobson and Al
Renfrew at the Wings. On defense
will be Connie Hill and Clem Cos-
salter, and Jack MacInnes tending
the nets. Hill will be acting captain
for tonight's contest.
Second Line Set
A second line of Wally Gacek, Neil
Celley and Walt Grant will alternate
with the starting combination. Coach
Heyliger rates both lines equally
strong. The Wolverines will also send
a third line into action against the
Spitfires. Operating at center ice, Bob

Hagen Urges
Short German
Military Rule
Claims Withdrawal
Will Aid Democracy
Advocating a short military occu-
pation of Germany, Paul Hagen, for-
mer German and Austrian trade un-
ion leader, pointed out in an inter-
view yesterday that only if German
democratic forces are allowed to fight
for their existence, without foreign
protection, can they avoid collapse
when such aid is withdrawn.
Temporary occupation is necessary
to disarm Germany and destroy
conditions conducive to the develop-
ment of democracy. B'ut, he pointed
out, Allied forces should be with-
drawn as soon as possible to permit
the democratic potential in Germany
to come forth spontaneously.
Democratic Leaders Exist
'This potential, according to Hagen,
exists in the willingness of the people
to accept something new and in the
existence of good, local democratic
leaders.
Discussing the economic aspect of
military occupation in his speech yes-
terday, Hagen stressed the fact that
the three different economic systems
of the occupying powers tend to di-
vide Germany into three separate
economic groups.
In the inteview, Hagen said that
the German labor movement has been
the main group in Germany with
democratic aims for the last 50 or 60
years. For this reason, it must pro-
vide the basis of a democratic Ger-
man government. Two-thirds of Ger-
many's population belong to this la-
bor group.
Socialism Predicted
A democratically controlled social-
ist form of government can be ex-
pected to develop under the leader-
ship of this group, he explained. No
free capitalism will be possible for a
while in Germany, but emergency re-
construction can be carried on in a
socialist way with democratic con-
trol.
Hagen also considers the re-estab-
lishment of Germany as a national
economic unit as a prerequisite to the
development of democracy.
Cossacks Will
Sing Monday
Chorus To Present
Selections by Russians
The Don Cossack Chorus, under the
direction of Serge Jaroff, will make its
first appearance on the Choral Un-
ion series since the fall of 1943 at
8:30 p.m. Monday in Hill Auditorium.
Now on its fifteenth American tour,
the Chorus will highlight its concert
with selections by Gretchaninoff,
Ssvedoff, Dobrovein and Tschesnikoff.
The original Don Cossack Chorus
was organized twenty-five years ago
when the Tom Thumb-like Lieut.
Jaroff, sitting around the campfire
with his homesick troops, conceived
the idea of a choir.

Lt. Col. Pack
Meeting withl
Misunderstanding
Claimed by Akers
William Akers, president of the
Veterans' Organization, and Victor
Baum, president of the local Ameri-
can Veterans' Committee chapter, de-
nied last night that their organiza-
tions had criticized the University's
Veterans' housing policies in conver-
sations with Lt. Col. Philip C. Pack,
director of the State Office of Veter-
ans Affairs.
An Associated Press report earlier
yesterday, which provoked their clari-
fication of their organizations' posi-
tions, stated that Col. Pack would
meet with a delegation of vet-
erans from the University who con-
tend that the University is not pre-
pared for an expected increase of
veteran enrolles next term.
Misunderstanding Reported
Akers explained that any conno-
tation of criticisms by the organiza-
tion in the announcement must have
been the result of misunderstanding
of his conversation with Cl. Pack
Wednesday either by Col. Pack or by
the press service.
"We have arranged a meeting with
Col. Pack to discuss veterans' af-
fairs, including the housing situa-
tion here," Akers said. Delegates of
VO and AVC will meet with Col.
Pack Thursday in Lansing.
Housing Surveys Conducted
Robert P. Briggs, vice-president of
the University, said in a statement to
The Daily last night: "At present we
see no reason for alarm about the
housing situation for next semester."
The Universityhas recently obtained
permission to use 572 housing units at
Willow Run and expects other facili-
ties to be available.
Meanwhile, VO and AVC are con-
ducting surveys of the housing situa-
tion and the cost of living for veter-
ans. VO's aim, according to Secretary
Warren Wayne, is to help provide
sufficient space for veterans who
want to enter the University next
term.
UNO Cannot
Effect Solution
Carr Speaks Before
Sociological Society
EAST LANSING, Nov. 30 - "The
United Nations Organization cannot
be the ultimate answer for a world
now struggling to control the use of
force," Dr. Lowell J. Carr declared
yesterday in a speech before the
Michigan Sociological Society at
Michigan State College.
Speaking on "A Situational Ap-
proach to Conflict and War," Dr.
Carr was one of a number of profes-
sors who addressed the all day meet-
ing.
Latest trends in technological ad-
vancement and atomic bomb research
plus the fact that member nations
still retain their sovereignty make it
apparent that the UNO as it now
stands will be ineffective. From a
situational viewpoint, it is also ap-
parent that when the state is in con-
trol, it can only use force to readjust
situations which heighten friction and
tension. By destroying opposing gov-
ernments, Dr. Carr continued, mili-
tary power may bring a new level of
equilibrium among nations, but on a

GM Proposes Work Resumption
In Parts, Accessories Division.
Union May Make
Reply Tomorrow
DETROIT, Nov. 30 - () -- The
strike-idle General Motors Corp, pro-
posed to the CIO's United. Auto Work-
ers tonight that work in GM's parts
and accessories division be resumed
for the benefit of other automobile
manufacturers.
The proposal was made in a letter
from President C. E. Wilson, ofRGen-
eral Motors, to President R. J.
Thomas, of the striking union, which
has tied up GM production since
Nov. 21 in a strike affecting 225,000
workers.
Auto Parts Needed
Wilson said the proposal, for which
he suggested "acceptance by your un-
ion," was made with the thought of
restoring the flow of auto parts and
accessories from GM's factories for
other reconverting plants of the in-
dustry.
The union was notified informally
of General Motors' proposal but made
no comment. A spokesman at UAW-
'Voice in the Wind'
To End Run Today
The last performance of "Voice in
the Wind," a motion picture starring
Francis Lederer, will be at 8:30 p.m.
today in the Lydia Mendelssohn The-
atre.
The film, presented under the aus-
pices of the Art Cinema League, re-
lates the story of a Czechoslovakian
pianist who defied the Germans after
the occupation of his country, and
depicts the suffering he endured from
the Germans who tried to crush the
arts as they crushed their conquests.
CIO headquarters said a reply proba-
bly would not be forthcoming before
tomorrow.
Will Continue Shipping
"We are willing," Wilson said, "to
ship materials which are ready for
shipment to other manufacturers. We
also are willing and offer to operate
all of our parts and accessory divi-
sions during the period of this strike
exclusively on outside work-that is,
on material required by manufactur-
ers other than General Motors car,
truck and body divisions."
If the union accepts, Wilson said,
men would be called back to work
with the understanding that no work
would be done except for outside
manufacturers.

Truman's Conference
Closes after 25 Days
WASHINGTON, Nov. 30 - (R) -
President Truman's labor-manage-
ment conference adjourned at 6:25
p. m., EST tonight without setting

dle postwar labor disputes.

A Unit, Hudnut Says
"The laws of architecture are not
final; they are but indications that
show the process of development in
architectural design," Dean Joseph
Hudnut from the School of Design
of Harvard University, said yester-
day in his speech entitled "Contem-
porary Trends in Architecture."
Dean Hudnut spoke of the future
of architecture, particularly of that
which has been called modern archi-
tecture.
"The first trend shows a tendency
toward the plastic relationship of
building materials. It is new, daring,
exciting and in many cases useful,"
he stated.

CHINESE UNIVERSITY NEEDS HELP:
Quarters Used by Japs; Students Studied in Caves, Temples
(EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the second in a series of articles on the foreign uni-

was supplied by Hsu Lo, a student in the University engineering school.)
Once the University of Tsing Hua was located in Peiping, having been
