New 'U' Policy
For Probation
Is Announced
Literary college students who earn
unsatisfactory grades this term may
be subject to dismissal, Associate
Dean Erich A. Walter announced yes-
terday
Dean Walter reported the following
procedure, approved Tuesday by the
college's Administrative Board, for
students whose work is unsatisfactory
for the fall term:
1. A student who earns unsatis-
factory grades in half of his ele-
tions for the fall term will be asked
to withdraw from the college. He
will not be considered for inmedi-
ate reinstatement unless the cause
of his failure has been serious ill
ness and unless he has completely
recovered from his illness so that
he will be able to give his full en-
ergy and attention to the work of
the spring term.
2 If a student' is placed on pro-
bation for the first time, he will not
be asked to withdraw from the col-
lege.
3. Veterans, even though they
may have earned an unsatisfactory
record in the fall term, will not be
asked to withdraw. They will,
however, be asked to withdraw at
the end of the spring term unless
they can earn at least a C average
for their elections of that term.
The Administrative Board's policy
of considering each case upon its
merits will be continued as in the
past, Dean Walter said.
"The board came to its decision,"
he said, "because it believes that
the limited space in classrooms and
residences should be reserved only
for students who can do acceptable
work."
The ruling of the Administrative
Board represents a departure from
the literary college's former policy
whereby certain students were grant-
ed immediate reinstatement, even
though they failedhto pass half of
their elections for the term.
Dean Ivan C. Crawford said that
no change in the present probation
system of the College of Engineering
is being contemplated.,

Students Urged
To Register on
Assigned Days
A plea that students register for
the spring term according to alpha-
betical schedule was issued yesterday
by Ira M. Smith, University Regis-
trar.
The alphabetical schedule will be
printed in The Daily tomorrow.
With the largest enrollment in
University history anticipated, stu-
dents who defer registration until
Sat., March 2, may not be able to
complete the procedures in time,
Smith said.
The University announced t h i s
week that late registration will not
be permitted, except in the case of
veterans who were not in residence
for the fall term.
Edward Groesbeck, Assistant Reg-
istrar, said yesterday that students
must complete all registration pro-
cedures by 11 a.m., March 2.
Associate Dean Lloyd S. Wood-
burne, of the literary college, said
that all students of the college
should use copies of the Announce-
ments received in the fall in planning
their programs for the spring semes-
ter.
The number of copies now on hand
will be sufficient for new students
only, Dean Woodburne said.
The college's Supplementary An-
nouncement, listing additional sec-
tions in various courses, will be issued
"within a week or two" of registra-
tion, he said.
Prof. Clarence F. Kessler, of the
College of Engineering, said that
copies of the college's Announce-
ments for the spring semester will be
given to engineering students at
registration.
Maddock Departs
For Northwestern
Dr. Walter G. Maddock, associate
professor of surgery in the medical
school, has announced that he will
leave here soon to accept a similar
position at Northwestern University.

Tie Gives Big Ten
Crown to Michigan
By DES HOWARTH
By Telephone To The Daily
MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. 1-Officials
had a field day here tonight as hockey
teams from Michigan and Minnesota
battled to a 3-3 overtime deadlock in
a game marred by almost constant
whistle-blowing.
Forty-one minutes of penalties, in-
cluding three misconduct infractions,
were levied against the Wolverines as
they fought both the Gophers and
the referee to keep in the game. Only
one two-minute minor was called
against Minnesota.
Overtime Fights
No fights broke out until the final
minute of overtime, after Michigan
right wing Al Renfrew was removed
from the ice with a possible broken
wrist. Michigan Coach Vic Heyliger
and Larry Armstrong, Minnesota
mentor, tangled in an after-game al-
tercation over the tactics of the offi-
cials.
Renfrew and Capt. Connie Hill
each drew 10-minute majors for pro-
testing an official's decision, and Bill
Jacobson was handed a five-minute
assessment for a similar misde-
meanor.
Gacek Scores Twice
The Wolverines had to come from
behind even to gain a tie. Trailing
2-1 as the third period opened, Michi-
gan tallied twice to the Gophers'
once in the final stanza. Neither team
was able toihit the nets in the 10-
minute overtime afterpiece.
Wally Gacek, fast-skating center
on Michigan's number one line,
proved the hero of the Maize and

AID FOR EXAMS:
Only A Miracle
Can Stop New
Gargoyle Issue
Barring an act of God and two acts
of the postal authorities (act of 1879
and act of 1911), the Gargoyle will
appear on campus Wednesday for
the second time this semester.
The humor magazine, a "must" for
the faster moving social circles on
campus, has added many new fea-
tures and retained the less revolting
mes of the first issue.
Reading from a prepared script,
Bill Goldstein, general manager of
the Gargoyle, yesterday scotched
persistent rumors that the League
for Moral Protection (Which goes in-
to executive session Monday) would
ban the magazine. He stated that
a pressure bloc within the League
had assured him that it was bending
all efforts to push the magazine's
approval through without a vote.
Off the record, Goldstein told
newsmen that the circulation staff
was being briefed in preparation for
dumping the magazine at a mo-
ment's notice should any of the
League's members raise a protest.
Asked whether he thought that
the Gargoyle's content might not be
above college level, he replied that
it contained nothing that a "fresh-
man couldn't understand with the
aid of the latest copy of 'Gape'."
The Gargoyle literary staff, head-
ed by Joe Walker, has carefully
edited and loosely censored the
naughtier material in this latest out-
burst of campus wit and humor.
Purdue, Ohio State,
Michigan Run Here
By WALT KLEE
Michigan's track team will be given
a slight edge over Purdue in its sea-
son opener at 7:30 today in Yost
Field House, when the Wolverines
will meet the invading thinclads from
Purdue and Ohio State.
Feature event of the meet will be
the shot put, which will see Bill Ben-
gert, Purdue's operatic inclined shot-
putter, try for the Field House record
of 51 ft. 51/2 in. set by Wolverine Bill
Watson in 1939.
Bangert has already topped the
mark when he recorded a toss of 52
ft. 4 3 /8 in. in the Army Relays held
last Saturday at West Point. Color
will be added to the record attempt
as it will be Watson himself who will
be the official assigned to the event.
Recerd May Fall
To add to the already interest-
packed event, Watson may see an-
other of his records change hands.
Chuck Fonville, one of three Wol-
verine shot-putters, has more than an
even chance of cracking the old
freshman mark set by Watson in
1936. Fonville has recorded heaves
that have hovered around the exist-
ing record of 48 ft. 5 in.
The other Michigan entry in the
shot put will be Jim Artley. Purdue
will also have Dn Mast, while Buck-
eyes Al Baumen and Dick Layne will
also be entered in the event. It has
been learned that Bangert may sing
the National Anthem before the start
of the evening's meet.
High Jump Event
Second in interest to the shot put
will be the high jump, which also may
see a Boilermaker take possession of
a Field House record. Dick Kilpatrick
has cleared 6 ft. 5 in. in practice this
year which is only an inch shy of Don
Canham's mark of 6 ft. 6 % in.
Ohio State has three good high
jumpers in Lloyd Crable, George
Hoeflinger and Dick Seibert, both of
whom have cleared the bar at 6 ft. 2
in. Wolverine Bob Harris, who has
jumped six feet consistently, will be
the Michigan entry.
The 60-yard dash, the first track
event of the evening at 7:30, will have
Bob Swain and Val Johnson for the
Maize and Blue, with the possible en-
try of Hank Fonde. Buckeyes Carl
Baynard, outstanding prospect on the
Ohio State squad, and Walt Long
have been entered. The Purdue entry

Vicious Propaganda;
Legion Demands Bradley Ouster
Gen. Eisenhower
Says He Will
Back Vet Chief
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1-(AP)-Gen.
Dwight D. Eisenhower, Army Chief
of Staff, said tonigit he was un-
familiar with American L e g i o n
charges against Gen. Omar N. Brad-
ley, Veterans Administrator, but
added that if Bradley needs support,
he will support him.
Eisenhower, pr'ior to attending a
dinner meeting of the National Rifle
Association, told, reporters that he
thought Bradley' was one of the
greatest living Americans and added:
"If General Bradley needs any
support, here is one who will fly
anywhere, anytime, to support him."
Bradley Fires Back
Gen. Eisenhower's comment came
several hours after Gen. Bradley,
confronted with an American Legion
demand or his removal as Veterans
Administrator, had fired back with
a heavy barrage of figures to show
progress in his "short six months of
stewardship."
And, answering a news conference
question, Bradley said a "scrap" last
week over a hospital site preceded
the blast cut loose at him by John
Stelle, National Commander of the
American Legion.
The question of a hospital site at
Decatur, Ill., in Stelle's home state,
also came up in a telephone conver-
sation Wednesday, Bradley said. But
he added that he did not think that
this talk with Stelle had "much to
do with this attack."
In New York City tonight, Stelle
said he did not necessarily seek re-
moval of Bradley and that if the
General could do the job he would
have Legion support.
Question Of Action
"It is immaterial to me whether
Bradley is removed or not," Stelle
said at a news conference, adding
that the problem was "a question of
action, not of individuals."
If Bradley lacks authority to "cut
red tape," he continued, "the Legion
will back him 100 per cent to ask
Congress to give him authority. We
want the job done. We are asking
for the correction of a situation, not
Bradley's removal."
Other veterans' organizations and
congressmen were horning in on the
free-for-all row which broke out
when Stelle demanded today that1
bongress investigate what he termed
"neglect" of veterans and a "tragic
breakdown" in the handling of their
problems in the Veterans Adminis-
tration.

Moscow Radio
Referred to
As Perpetrator
By The Associated Press
LONDON, Feb. 1 - Ernest Bevin
openly accused Russia tonight of en-
dangering world peace by "incessant
propaganda" and demanded a
straight yes or no verdict from the
World Security Council on Soviet
charges that Britain was jeopardiz-
ing peace by "intervention" in Greece.
In a gloves-off, cards-on-the-table
session of the 11-nation Peace Coun-
cil, the British foreign secretary de-
clared:
"The real danger to peace is the in-
cessant propaanda, the incessant at-
tacks on Britain by the Moscow radio
'nd the Communists, as though there
were no friendship with the British
people."
Suspicion Developed
Bevin, saying such attacks lead to
suspicion, remarked he had difficulty
in understanding why Russia made
the complaint about Greece, and add-
ed: "I can't help feeling there is a
deeper reason, known only to 'the
Soviet government."
Bevin spoke bluntly after Soviet
Foreign Vice-Commissar Andrei Vi-
shinsky told the council Russia in-
sisted upon "quick and uncondi-
tion l" withdrawal of British forces
from Greece. Vishinsky charged the
toops were "contibuting to disor-
der" in an already "terrorized coun-
try."
Bevin's statement, which included
an accusation that Russia had in-
stalled a minority government in Ro-
mania, was followed by a short speech
by Thanassis Aghnides, the Greek
delegate.
Claims No Intervention
"I state categorically that the Brit-
ich have not intervened in the inter-
Baal affairs of Greece at any time,"
Aghnides said, adding that the Greek
government regards the presence of
British troops as "indispensable to
keep order and obtain political sta-
biliy."
Bevin's criticism of Russian and
Communist Party propaganda, many
tatesman said, came as a "plain
shock" to Assembly delegates and
demonstrated for the second time
vtnin two days the new "gloves off"
policies of top level diplomats.
Greek Charges Made
Vishinsky opened today's debate
with the charge that British garrisons
in Greece "helped the minority
against the majority" in Greece's in-
ternal affairs.
Vishinsky asserted that "during the
last few days in Athens and the Pir-
aeus there was a new outbreak.of fas-
cist terror" during which roaming
"bandits" halted workers and tres-
passed on premises of worker organi-
zations.
Iran, Russia
To Hold Parley
TEHRAN, Feb. 1--(P)--Iran has
taken steps toward beginning direct
negotiations with Russia over the
Azerbaijan dispute, an informant
close to the government said today
as Russia made a second move eas-
ing relations in the northern pro-
vince.
Premier Ahmed Qavam Es Sal-
taneh, described by opposition dep-
uties as "pro-Soviet," has cabled the
Iranian ambassador to London, S. H.
Taqizadeh, and Ali Soheily, a mem-
ber of the Iranian United Nations
Delegation, to confer on procedure
with Andrei Vishinsky, Soviet Vice
Foreign Commissar who is heading
the Russian delegation to the United
Nations Assembly, the informant de-
clared. A similar cable was said to
have been sent to Ambassador Ahi
in Moscow.
The informant said Premier Ah-
med Qavam was considering the
,ossibility of naming an eight-man
mission to the Soviet capital.

CROSSROADS:
US Becoming Mediterranean
Power, Prof. Gott man Says
The United States, after having
been interested from afar in the
Mediterranean area, is becoming one
of the great Mediterranean powers,
Prof. Jean Gottman of Johns Hop-
ins University said in a lecture yes-
terday.
The American element is one of
the main ones of the Mediterranean
picture today, he declared, adding
that for the first time the three
dominant powers of the world do not
include a Mediterranean country.
But the geographic discrepancy does
not keep the spotlight off the Med-
iterranean, Prof. Gottman asserted.
Some of the first problems besetting
the UNO are problems of countries
located in the Mediterranean area.
Geographic Position Considered
are not new, Prof. Gottman declared.
The United States' interest in the
Mediterranean area goes back to the
Barbary wars, he said, pointing out
the words of the Marine Corps' song
" ... To the shores of Tripoli." The
interference of the United States in
the Moroccan affair shortly before
World War I Prof. Gottman also
cited, and said it is well remembered
in Europe.
England Also Interested
England's interest in the Mediter-
ranean goes beyond the "road to
[ndia" idea, Prof. Gottman said.
England was interested in the Med-
iterranean lands before th e Suez
Canal was built, he asserted, point-
ing out British activity in Greece as
commemorated by Lord Byron.
