Michigan's fast-skating forwards and hard-checking defensemen proved too much for the Gophers as the Wolverines completely dominated the play in the first two periods, scoring four goals in both stanzas, and then coasted to victory in the final frame. Minnesota scored three goals in the third period but could not make up the deficit. Marshall Goal Spectacular Wlly Grant, Wally Gacek, and Bob Marshall all tallied twice for the Maize and Blue. Al Renfrew, Bill Jacobson, and Gord MacMillan were the other Michigan scorers. Bob Car- ley, Cal Engelstad, Pat Finnegan, and Jack O'Brien each countered for Minnesota. Bob Marshall, defenseman, played an outstanding game for the Wol- verines both offensively and defen- sively and marked up his first two goals of the season. Marshall's first goal was the most spectacular seen on the Coliseum ice this season and came whilenMichigan was playing with tvo men short. Gacek Line Stars Bob Arnot shoved a pass to the big defenseman, and Marshall roared past four Gophers and in on goalie Duff McDermid, who was beaten with a hard shot to the corner. The Gacek line, with Gacek at cen- ter and Grant and Neil Celley on the wings, also performed in great fash- ion. At 2:57, Grant took Celley's See GACEK, page 7 China's Civil War Continues After Deadline Truce Teams Unable To Halt Fighting Men CHUNGKING, Jan. 19-()-Scat- tered fighting continued in various zones of China's Civil War front to- night, both government and Com- munist leaders said, six days after the official deadline for a nation- wide truce. Three-member truce teams, each including an American, a Commun- ist, and a central government rep- resentative, moved into additional areas to halt reported conflicts, but they were admittedly powerless to end the fighting if rival Chinese leaders continued action after being informed of the truce order from Chungking. Walter Robertson, American rep- resentative on the truce commission, which includes Gen. Cheng Kai- Ming for the central government and Gen. Yeh Chien-ing for the Com- munists, said, however, that he "and his associates had agreed on "three principles which will put teeth into the orders truce teams wil give op- posing commanders." The nature of the three principles was not disclosed. A high official of the National Mil- itary Council said that Communists wre operating in force from the heart of Inner Mongolia to points near the lower reaches of the Yang- tze River and were seeking to estab- lish a corridor from the Lower Yangtze to Jehol. Communist quarters in Chungking countered the government charges with assertions that government forces were conducting mopping-up operations around the Honan pro- vince highway center of Kwangshan and were "attacking vigorously" the railroad town of Yuncheng in south- western Honan, to which a truce team has been assigned.

Michigan's on-again off-again basketball team was on last night at Yost Field House, defeating North- western 56-37 and gaining revenge over the Wildcats, who had beaten it by the same 19-point margin last Saturday in Evanston. The alert Wolverine defense kept the vaunted Northwestern offense in check throughout the game. Sparkling play by Guards Pete Elliott and Dave Strack limited Wildcat Max Morris, who last week scored 20 points, to one field goal and three foul shots. Selbo Outstanding Glenn Selbo played a brilliant game under the Wildcat backboard and held Leroy King, giant center, to four field goals. Both teams constantly broke up the opponents' passing game by intercepting passes. After 10 minutes of play, the Wol- verines took the lead for the fifth time on a field goal by Elliott, and were never headed from then on. The half time score was 28-19. Regulars Removed at End In the fina minutes, Coach Bennie Oosterbaan removed all of his regu- lars from the game. They received a tremendous ovation from the three- quarters filled Field House. Dave Strack was the big gun on Michigan's offense with 14 points on six shots from the field andtwo from the foul line. Elliot was close behind with 13 points on the same number of field goals and one foul shot. Selbo was third with 10 point. Leroy King and Buzz Wheeler were high scorers for the losers with nine points apiece. Michigan Lead Short Michigan drew first tblood on a free throw by Selbo, but the lead was short-lived as Chuck Lindgren count- ered with a field goal. Morris made a See CAGERS, page 6 Officers Plan Gala Party for Seniors A gala party is being arranged for February graduates from all schools by the class officers.

Thousands of others also became idle as steel operations of 1,292 om- panies in 30 states gradually halted. The mammoth strike grew out of a 31/2 cents an hour difference between. the 15 cents offered by the United States Steel Corporation, industry bellwether, and the 18%/ cents sought Steel Wo rkers Qui Jobs Action Comes As Climax to 3-Year Battle Interlochen Head Says Union Verdict Expected Glass- Strike Over COLUMBUS, O., Jan. 19-W)- A strike of approximately 15,000 CIO unionists employed at the Pittsburgh Plate Glass Company and The Libbey-Owens Ford Glass Com- pany was settled tonight with a flat 10.7 cents an hour wage increase ac- cepted by the union. by the union, which had been scaled down from its original 25 cents. Meanwhile, Henry J. Kaiser's West Coast steel plant expectea to tinue turning ou' ingots, regardless of the outcome of the steel dispute. Kaiser announced yesterday sign- ing of a contract with the steel- workers' union for an 18%/2 cents an hour wage increase for his employes, in line with a recommendation by President Truman. In Washington Secretary of Labor See STRIKE, Page 3 Fitzsimmons Offers To Settle 16-Day Strike NEW- YORK, Jan. 19-Frank J. Fitzsimmons, President of the strik- ing independent Western Electric Employes Association, offered today to settle the 16-day-old walkout of 17,000 workers in the metropolitan area for a 171/ per cent wage in- crease. Fitzsimmons sent telegrams to President Truman, Labor Secretary Schwellenbach, U. S. Conciliator J. R. Mandelbaum, and the Western Electric Company sayinghis union would settle the wage dispute "pro- vided the Western Electric Company increases its present offer of 15 per cent to 171/2 per cent." The union originally asked a 30 per cent increase. Mayer quoted Fitzsimmons as say- ing the "President of the United States has indicated that labor should settle its wage demands for 171/2 per cent, based on the results of the fact-finding board." "We are prepared in the public in- terest to comply with the President's request, and we know that every other labor union will do likewise," the un- ion president was quoted as saying. "It is apparent that the great fi- nancial interests which are behind such enterprises as General Motors, United States Steel and American Telephone and Telegraph Company, parent company of Western Electric, are resisting efforts to bring about industrial peace.

NEA Educators 'U' FACILITIES AID: Favor Aid to vet Solar ObservationsMade Readjustrnent Group States Colleges Have Needed Facilities1 CLEVELAND, Jan. 19-Some 300 educators of the National Education Association concluded a three-day conference today by adopting a con- stitution dedicated to aid ex-service- men "so that both they and the coun- try may be helped to readjust to peacetime living." Among resolutions adopted was that of a panel on college terminal programs declaring: "Despite over- crowding reported in approximate- ly 100 of the nationally known uni- versities, by a full use of their fa- cilities the 1,700 colleges of the country will be able to admit all veterans who want to enroll." , Alonzo G. Grace, Commissioner of Education of Connecticut, listed establishment of federal G.I. uni- versities as one of several alterna- tives which might result if the pres- ent education system failed to meet needs of returning servicemen, but the Connecticut official declared there was "no threat, or even likeli- hood" of the formation of such na- tionalized vets' colleges. Dr. Ernest V. Hollis, specialist of the U. S. Office of Education, told delegates colleges should be prepared to offer short vocational programs for ex-servicemen and to find posi- tions for veterans after completion of such courses. Regional vice-presidents named by the Council included Loy Norrix of Kalamazoo, Mich. Students Urged To Apply Now Request Prompted by Poor Iotisiing Facilities Former Michigan students plan- ning to re-enroll in the spring term are urged by University officials to file applications immediately. Although the new admissions pol-a icy limits enrollment to residents of Michigan, former out-of-state stu- dents who left in good standing will be admitted. They must file applica- tion promptly if they expect to find housing accommodations, officials announced. Out-of-state students now enrolled in the University are not affected by the new policy. No reply to the University's re- quest for eight FPHA dormitories has yet been received, it was disclosed. An answer had been expected from the FPHA regional office in Cleve- land yesterday. For U.S. Armed Services Observations of the sun made at. the University's McMath-Hulbert Ob- servatory on Lake Angelus contribute to the semi-weekly short wave radio reception predictions prepared at Washington for the armed forces. Reports Made to Washington Reports on solar observations have been made to Washington since early in 1942, according to Dr. Robert R. McMath, director of the observatory. Information in them is analyzed and correlated with other data in order to enable radio experts to attempt to predict short wave reception several days in advance. The forecasts were developed to aid wartime comunication. Their value proved so great that the service is now continued. Reception predictions are prepared by the Interservices Radio Propagation Laboratory. Prof. Mohler Is Director The solar observations at the ob- servatory are under the direction of Prof. Orren C. Mohler, assisted by John Brodie. Their findings on the R ussian Circle To Hear Kiss Dr. George Kiss of the geography departmentt will give a talk on the Caucasus before a meeting of the RusskyKruzhok, Russian Circle, at 8 p.m. tomorrow in the International Center. A business meeting of the circle will be held at 7:30 p.m. Tea from the samovar and Russian delicacies will be served and Russian recordings will be played after the lecture. positions, areas, and intensities of bright calcium plages on the sun are sent in telegraphic reports to the Department of Terrestrial Magnetism of the Carnegie Institution in Wash- ington. Prof. Mohler explained that the approach of these plages to the center of the sun's disk is a warning of probably poor radio conditions. Military security stillprevents men- tion of other contributions to the armed services made by the observa- tory staff. Southerners Delay l-Passage Of FEPC Bil WASHINGTON, Jan. 19, (1P-The United States Senate faces the dreary prospect of doing nothing next week, and staying at it seven hours a day. A Southern filibuster against a bill to establish a permanent Fair Em- ployment Practice Commission has the lawmakers marking time in a leg- islative dead-end street. The Republican minority, most of whom .favor the anti-discrimination bill, decided at a meeting today to insist that the Senate stay in session next week until at least 6 o'clock. A Democratic spokesman said the majority would move to meet at 11 a.m., instead of the customary noon hour. Senator Wayne Morse (R.-Ore.) in- sists that there should be continuous sessions until the filibuster is groken. He proposes 24-hour instead of seven- hour meetings. Climaxing his long personal battle with James C. Petrillo, Dr. Joseph E. Maddy, professor of radio music edu- cation received word last night that he had been expelled from the Ameri- can Federation of Musicians after a private hearing by the national execu- tive board of that union last Tuesday in Chicago. The negative verdict, though expec- ted by Dr. Maddy, was supposed to have been given by the executive body on Wednesday. The news was tele- phoned to Dr. Maddy by the Chicago Daily Tribune at the close of the American Association of Broadcasters hearing yesterday. Calls from the Chi- cago Daily News and Time magazine followed immediately. Dr. Maddy was represented by Birk and Birk, University attorneys, at the trial. Carl Schafer of the Richmond, Ind., AFM local also testified in his behalf. Commenting on the noticeable ab- sence of Petrillo, AFM president, I'r. Maddy said that though the music czar was there for all other meetings he was "probably just in the next room during my private hearing." It is enough for you to know that Mr. Petrillo is not here," the executive board told Dr. Maddy Dr. Maddy, founder and director of the National Music-Camp, said, "After 37 years of membership in good standing I have been expelled from the AFM for the innocent crime of teaching music to chil- dren at Interlochen." He was summoned before the board to face charges that he taught at the camp last summer after it was placed on the union's unfair list. Dr. Maddy taught at the camp last summer despite the ban which forced the oganization to recruit non-union musicians as teachers. A majority of the 1945 teachers were college music professors. He declared in a formal statement: "In the interests of music educa- tion of children I have fought Pe- trillo and all he stands for so that I can hardly say the verdict of his ex- ecutive board was unexpected. "Two months before the National Music Camp was placed on the AFM unfair list and members or- dered not to teach there, Mr. Pe- trillo was quoted in a press asso- ciation dispatch as saying, "We don't stop anybody from giving lessons.' "This point yas brought up at the hearing and was not contradicted or denied, so it is quite apparent that Petrillo's intrusion into the field of musical education is novel and solely for the purpose of prese- cuting me. "The unfair ruling and my ex- pulsion from the union are both re- prisals against me personally for daring to dispute Petrillo's right to control broadcasting and musical education of the children of Amer- ica. "In spite of Petrillo's efforts to obstruct the development of youth- ful musical talent, the National Music Camp and other school or- ganizations of the country will con- tinue to fight any and all edicts that would interfere with the rights of educators to teach and of chil- dren to learn music." Ousted from the union, the direc- tor of Interlochen has two opportuni- ties: 1) To appeal to the floor of the AFM convention in June 2) To ask for a rehearing. It is not probable that he will consider either possibil- ity, Dr. Maddy said.
