Bra ley Thinclad s Rout Ohio State, Purdue Defense; 'nToday By DES HOWARTH Special to The Daily MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. 2- Michi- gan's hockey team, which defeated Minnesota twice in very decisive fashion here two weeks ago, found the Gophers a far different propo- sition on their home ice here tonight as it dropped a 5-2 decision to its Big Ten rivals. The surprising upset, following on the heels of last night's 3-3 tie, still gave the Wolverines an edge in the four-game series and the mythical Conference hockey crown. The de- feat was Michigan's third of the sea- son, as against 12 victories and one tie. Minnesota Coach Larry Armstrong sent a rejuvenated team into battle for tonight's contest, and the Goph- ers displayed a superb brand of hockey. Defensively, the Northmen were invincible, with goalie Ray Mc- Dermid proving once and for all why he is rated the best net-minder in collegiate circles.

SANTIAGO, Chile, Feb. 3-(P) -A new cabinet was sworn into' office early today, following a week of tension which grew out of a bloody riot last Monday in which six members of the Chilean Con- federation of Labor were fatally shot by police. Announcement that the new cab- inet had taken office came after a split in the Labor Front, with the Socialist party withdrawing its support of a nationwide strike or- dered for Monday by the Labor Confederation.

Fire Takes 12 Lives --- By The Associated Press CLEVELAND, Feb. 2-Twelve of the 62 occupants of Jennings Hall, Catholic home for the aged, died to- day in an explosion and ensuing fire which swept through the one-story frame structure. Seven persons still remained in hospitals but the condition of only one was listed as critical by the coroner. The flash fire quickly engulfed the' tar paper and thin frame walls of the structure shortly after an ex- plosion at 2:15 p.m. (EST. Philip pines Need Help .. WASHINGTON, Feb. 2-Paul V. McNutt, High Commissioner to the Philippines, arrived today and said there is urgent need that Congress act immediately to provide war re- lief for the Islands. Small progress is being made in the Islands in rehabilitating the damage suffered there during the war, McNutt said, explaining that the Filipinos are waiting "to see what Congress is going to do. Levantine Problem . . LONDON, Feb. 2-Another inter- national political issue loomed to- night before the United Nations Se- curity Council, whose 11 members are hearing debate on Russia's complaint that presence of British troops in Greece is endangering world peace. Faris Al Khoury, chief Syrian dele- gate to the United Nations, said he intended to appeal to the Security Council on Monday against the pres- ence of French and British troops in the Levant. By WALT KLEE Michigan's track team, defending Conference Indoor Champions, open- ed its season last night by garnering 741/ points in a lop sided victory over Purdue and Ohio State. The Wolverines took seven first places in the track events and a first in the pole vault, while the Buckeyes and Boilermakers had two apiece. Both visiting teams failed to live up to their pre-meet reputations. Boilermaker Bill Bangert took first place in the shot put but failed to break the existing Field House record as his best toss of the evening was a mere three-quarters of an inch short. Chuck Fonville, who took sec- ond place in the event for Michigan set a new freshman mark of 49 ft. 4 in. Elmer Swanson was the leading Michigan's athletic teams earned a split in the four contests for which The Daily has results. The track and swimming teams were victorious while the basketball and hockey teams lost. The Daily has no information on the wrestling meet. point gainer for the defending cham- pions by taking first place in both hurdle events. Bob Thomason's first in the mile and second in the 880- yard run was second. Archie Parsons, who won the quarter-mile and ran in the mile relay also, lived up to expectations. However it was Buckeye Carl Bay- nard who was the outstanding indi- vidual performer of the meet. The young freshman sprinter took first place in the 60-yard dash, second in the 440, and ran on the mile re- lay team.

With 2,214 veterans enrolled in the current term, the University boasts the largest enrollment of resident veterans on any campus. University officials estimate that between 5,000 and 6,000 veterans will be here for the spring term. Facilities For 14,000 Vice-President Robert P. Briggs disclosed that the University does have facilities to take care of the an- ticipated 14,000, but problems of housing, and crowded classrooms will be prevalent. This enrollment of 14,000 exceeds by 1,500 the former record made in the fall of 1939. Normal enrollment figures usually ran 10,000 and under. Housing Most Pressing Most pressing of all problems is the housing shortage, and no alleviation of the difficulties is forecast for the near future. Emergency housing measures have been set up, ranging from portable housing units to the housing project at Willow Run. The Dean of Student's Office discloses that almost no facilities in private homes have been reported in the past few months. The Willow Run project, 12 miles from the campus, is housing both single and married veterans and spe- cial bus service has been provided for these students. No Appropriations Since '29 Commenting on the shortage of classrooms and laboratory facilities, President Alexander G. Ruthven de- clared that no state appropriations have been made for educational buildings at the University since 1927. He added that the present rise in enrollment figures are nothing new, as the student body of the Uni- versity from 1930 to 1940 increased 27 per cent. The result is, President Ruthven said, that classes are being held in buildings ranging from 52 to 104 years old, many of which were slated for replacements years ago. Readjusting classroom schedules and using every available inch of space still does not mean that the, University can take all the students who request admission, President Ruthven said, but despite the lack of facilities, no qualified Michigan vet- eran has been turned away. The lack of facilities has led, however, to the current policy of admitting no new out-of-state students.

"Yes," said Logan. "How did you get Canadian Club out of that coke machine?" "I used a Canadian nickel, you know. Good day, my boy." Job Requests Show Increase Over Last Year' An increase over last year both in the number of applications for sum- mer jobs and in the calls from camps and resorts for student help was re- ported by the University Bureau of Appointments and Occupational In- formation yesterday. Although the greatest number of requests continues to come from Michigan camps and resorts, Dr. T. Luther Purdom, Director of the Bur- eau, said, many Eastern resorts and camps have asked for student per- sonnel. The range of positions open to students, he said, includes wat'_r- front and dramatics directors, typ- ists, licensed drivers, entertainers, waiters, dietitians and counsellors. Experience is not necessary for many of the positions. He pointed out that there is' a demand for graduates who can undertake the responsibility of being directors of camp units or of entire camps. Although requests for resort and camp workers are most frequent, Dr. Purdom said that there are a limited number of jobs available to students in cities. Application blanks for summer jobs may be obtained from 9 a.m. to noon and from 1 to 4:30 p.m. in Rm. 201 Mason Hall. Bolte's Action Affirmed by Local Chapter Legion Leader Attacks General A statement issued by Charles G. Bolte, national president of the Amer- ican Veterans' Committee, defending Gen. Omar N. Bradley's conduct of the Veterans' Administration has been endorsed by the Steering Committee of the Ann Arbor Chapter of AVC. The firecracker went off when John Stelle, national commander of the American Legion, wrote in a letter to Congress that there had been a "trag- ic breakdown" in the Veterans' Ad- ministration under Gen. Bradley and that VA needed a "seasoned business man" at its bead. In his defense Gen. Bradley coun- ter-attacker with a progress report on VA operations since he became ad- ministrator last August. In a statement issued yesterday, President Harry S. Truman de- clared that he backed Gen. Bradley "to the hilt" in the veteran admin- istrator's feud with the American Legion over the handling of veter- ans' problems. Four commanders of Michigan vet- eran groups, including the American Legion, have rallied behind Gen. Bradley and defended his conduct of the Veterans' Administration. Bolte, in a press release issued yes- terday said: "I wish to state as vigorously as possible the unqualified support of AVC for Gen. Bradley and our firm belief that he is not only eminently qualified for his job but has per- formed very nearly a miracle in bringing the VA a long way out of the state of inefficiency in to which it had fallen-a state of inefficiency for which the American Legion is very largely responsible. We have every confidence that Gen. Bradley is doing the very best possible job under the most trying of circumstances, and I reassert our fath that he will do an even better job if he is not subjected to sniping attacks. "Anyone familiar with the vet- .erans' problems in this country will have no difficulty in determining the reason for this vicious and un- warranted attack on Gen. Bradley by the American Legion. The Le- gion was able to boast for years that it had the, VA in its pocket. Gen. Bradley, since he has taken office, has shown an independence of thought and action which could only prove irksome to the leaders of the Legion. He has tried in- creasingly to break away from the sad pattern of the past--a pattern in which policy was made for the VA largely by the Legion, and in which appointments to positions in the VA were largely from the ranks of Legionaires. Gen. Brad- ley has attempted to provide ade- quate and modern service for veter- ans of this war without regard to patronage. Naturally the leaders of the Legion would prefer a 'sea- soned business man' whom they could control more easily. "I wonder if the leaders of the Le- gion consulted with their members who are veterans of this war before they issued their statement. If they had, they would of course have found dissatisfaction with many phases of the veterans' rehabilitation program. However, they might also have found See BOLTE, Page 2 Maddy Assails 'Music Union EVANSTON, Ill., Feb. 2-(P)-Dr. Joseph E.

'F I SENATE PREROGATIVE GUARDED. Early Change in Cloutre Rule Unlikely, Dr. Norton S By PHYLLIS KAYE "In spite of the fact that the present Senate filibuster on the FEPC bill is causing a great deal of public comment, it does not seem likely that the cloture rule will be modified in the immediate future," Dr. Clark F. Norton of the political science department stated yesterday. According to the present Senate cloture rule, a petition must be circulated and signed by at least 16 persons. Then, two calendar days after presentation, the petition is brought to a vote. In order to go into effect, it must receive the approval of two-thirds of the members present.
