Labeled as the top offensive aggre- gation in the Mid-West, the Golden Gophers will present a typical rough, tough, heavy squad to the 85,000 fans expected to form the largest crowd of the. current home season. Averages 190 Pounds A line averaging well over 190 pounds and a backfield of more than 185 assure Minnesota a definite weight advantage over the Wolver- ines. Bierman's squad has speed as well, along with maneuverability and deception. The result has been that in two Big Ten games the Gophers have av- eraged more than 371 yards total of- fense, far more than their nearest rival. Passing, usually a very minor weapon with Bierman, has accounted for a surprising 115 yards of that average. Hanzlik Guard The Minnesota line is spearheaded by big Bob Hanzlik, 195-pound guard who was a starting tackle on the 1943 Michigan eleven. O t h e r forward standouts include center and line backer Dick Van Dusen, guard Bob Graiziger, and ends Johnny Lundin and Bob Carley, whose glue fingers have been largely responsible for the success of the Gopher aerial offensive. But it is in the backfield that this See FOOTBALL, Page 3 Address Changes Asked By Ensian Students now on campus who left summer mailing addresses at the En- sian office are requested by Jean Pines, Michiganensian editor, to turn in their names at the office before 4 p. m.

Dr. Ruthven Addresses VU Press Club Denounces Military Training Proposals "Universal military training will never assist in creating international good will and will certainly seriously handicap the preparation of our youth for service to society," Presi- dent Alexander G. Ruthven told 250 editors and publishers of Michigan newspapers gathered here for the an- nual convention of the University PressClub yesterday. The hope for an enduring peace, he declared, lies in our ability to develop a balanced program of co-operation among our own citizens and between nations and racial groups. Invest in Education "It is my conclusion that, if we would make available a small frac- tion of the amount of the cost of the last war for the education to equip the individual with the knowledge of the nature of the world and men, the dangers of wars of aggression could be greatly minimized through mutual understanding," President Ruthven concluded. Dr. Harry A. Overstreet, lecturer in adult education for the Extension Service of the University, told the edi- tors and publishers that an agency as powerfultas the American newspaper dares not evade the moral responsi- bilities that its power carries. Dr. Cork Lectures In a discussion of "Atomic Energy in War and Peace," Dr. James M. Cork, professor of physics at the University, pointed to the futility of trying to keep the bomb secret by re- ferring to captured German equip- ment. Afternoon sessions at the Rackham Amphitheatre t o d a y include ad- dresses by Kim Sigler, Special State Prosecutor in current grand jury uases, and Dr. Garrett Heyns, direc- or of the State Department of Cor- ection "Psychological Warfare in t h e MediterraneanArea" will be dis- cussed by Russell Barnes, former head of OW psychological warfare in that theater, at the evening ses- sion to be held at the League.

B-29s Complete Non-Stop Flight From Japan By The Associated Press WASHINGTON, Nov. 1 - Four B-29s, carrying 43 tired, happy men home from the war, completed tonight the first non-stop flight from Japan to Washington in 27 hours, 29 min- utes. Brig. Gen. Frank A. Armstrong, Jr., deputy commander of the 20th air- force, led the flight home, landing at Washington national airport at 7:38 p. m., Eastern Standard Time. The distance was figured at 6,544 miles. Second Attempt It was the Army's second attempt to make the trip non-stop. The first attempt on September 18-19 fell short of the goal because of constant ad- verse winds and the three-plane flight led by Lt. Gen. Barney M. Giles sat down at Chicago to refuel before com- ing on to Washington. Both flights followed roughly the same route, 'the great circle course across the Pacific by way of Agattu and Kodiake, in the Aleutians, Sitka, Alaska, Fort St. John, Winnipeg, De- troit and thence eastward across the United States. Report Bad Weather General Armstrong smiling through grime and two days' growth of beard, said the weather was 'terrible' on this flight also, and that they did not know until they reached Kodiak, Ala- ska, whether they would make it. As it turned out, his plane landed with 800 gallons of fuel, enough for about three hours. General Armstrong said the planes took off from the field near Sapparo, capital of Hokkaido, northernmost of the major Japanese islands, during a rain.

By The Associated Press BATAVIA, Java, Nov. 1-British planes struck at Indonesian extrem- ists stepping up their attacks tonight against British forces in central and western Java despite orders from their own "president" Soekarno to lay down arms.

Army Arrests 21 Nazi Bankers For Conspiracy By The Associated Press FRANKFURT, Germany,No. 1- Twenty-one directors of Germany's six greatest banks have been arrested on charges that they worked hand-n- glove with the Nazi party "in a con- spiracy to dominate the world," financing Hitler's armies and helping exploit conquered nations, U. S. Army authorities announced today. Twenty other tycoons of the pow- erful banks are sought. War Criminals "It seems pretty sure that we will recommend trial of these men as war criminals," declared R. A. Nixon, Dep- uty Director of the Military Govern- ment Division Investigating Cartels. Nixon said the directors of the "Big Six" banks began pouring money into German rearmament as early as 1935, and during the war "served as virtual spies in the economic and poli- tical fields." Banking Industry Interlocked He declared German banking and German industry were so interlocked that it was impossible to separate them, and that the concentration of economic power by the "Big Six" was "of a scope and dominance far beyond anything that has ever existed in the United States." He listed the six banks as the Deut- sche Bank, the Dresdener Bank, the Commerzbank, the Bank Der Deut- schen-Arbeit, the Reichs Kredit-Ges- ellschaft and the Berliner Handels Gesellschaft.
