LVIH, No. 81 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, SUNDAY, JANUARY 11, 1948 PRICE FIVE CENTS Michigan Cagers Edge Out Gophers, 43-41 < Ruthven Asks Specialist'UT Says Combat Men Are Not Only Defense Cooperation Between School, Army Urged President Alexander G. Ruthven yesterday urged provision for the training of adequate numbers of highly skilled specialists in the Universal Military Training bill now pending before Congress. In an interview with the De- troit Times, Dr. Ruthven said that "the important issue is no longer whether we should have compul- sory military training. A realistic view of world affairs makes the necessity clear. The issue is what kind of plan we should adopt and follow." Dr. Ruthven told The Daily that he is "opposed to any form of UMT that would interfere with the plans of young men and wom- en to get the education they are, best fitted for." -Adequate Defense Declaring in the interview that the traditional training of vast numbers of infantrymen and com- bat troops could not give the U.S. an adequate defense system, Dr. Ruthven said that complementary training of experts in every field of advanced study will be neces- sary. He listed the physical sciences, ,nedicine, psychiatry, military en- gineering and radio electronics as essential to national prepared- ness. "But these are not all. Demands for language experts, educational 'program administrators, journal- ists and others trained in the lib eral tradition must be anticipat- ed," he said. Recognize Needs Dr. Ruthven said that "we must recognize the needs of the time. If the Universal Military Training bill in its final form includes con- sideration of the imperative need for the training of these special- ists, I will gladly support it. "Our experiences during the re- cent conflict leave no doubt about this need. Universities and col- leges were drained dry of their top-flight men in every field by the demands of the military. Pro- per training of new personnel in these fields became most diffi- cult," he added. 'Foot Sloggers' "We cannot be 'prepared' in the true sense of the word we sim- ply produce the old-type foot- sloggers and ignore the demands of modern warfare." Dr. Ruthven suggested that plans for close cooperation with universities and colleges be draft- ed by military authorities in or- der to assure the armed forces an adequate corps of specialists in the event of another conflict.

Joan Katz, '49, of Chicago, and French Decry Unified Zone For Germany WASHINGTON, Jan. 10&-)- French objections to the latest British-American decisions on ad- ministering the Anglo-American zones of Germany may hamper ef- forts of the Western powers to consolidate all of Western Germ- any into a single economic and political unit. Evidence of French disapproval of the new Anglo-American move to set up a German administra- tion over the merged British- United States zones, apparently without consulting the French, developed rapidly today not only in Paris but also in London and Washington. French Ambassador Henri Bon-' net is expected to register his government's protest with the State Department early next week. In London a foreign office spokesman disclosed that Am- bassador Rene Massigli had al- ready called on Foreign Minister Bevin and expressed concern that France was not consulted about the British-American de- cisions.

By The Associated Press JERUSALEM, Jan. 10- The Jewish Militia Hagana reported without confirmation tonight that Arabs again had invaded North- eastern Palestine from Syria to- day .and the government said 20 persons had been killed in the south in a three-cornered battle of Jews, Arabs and British. Hagana said several hundred Arabs had crossed the northern border near the village of Tel El Kadi in the same general vicinity as the first invasion from Syria' yesterday. They were beaten back in a Hagana ambush in which one person was killed and at least one wounded, the organization said. Report Unconfirmed This report was not confirmed either by the British army or by news correspondents who talked to police and military officials in the region north of Galilee dur- Consigntment of .Explosives Called Te gal' ASBURY PARK, N.J., Jan. 10- (P-The Jewish Agency for Pales- tine said tonight explosives seized near Asbury Park Thursday were "legally procured" and were awaiting "legitimate shipment" to Palestine when discovered. Meanwhile the last of a 199- ton consignment of war surplus explosives which police said were earmarked for the Jewish forces in the Holy Land, was accounted for at the Army's Seneca Ord- nance Depot at Romulus, N.Y. The Jewish Agency statement, issued in New York, said "the Jewish Agency for Palestine has the responsibilities of a state about to be born. It must protect the lives and homes of the 700,- 000 men, women and children of Palestine. "The UN decision (tonpartition the Holy Land) made no provi- sions for an international force, but did provide for a Jewish mili- ita to defend the Jewish state and to maintain public security. It therefore devolved upon the re- sponsible defense forces of the Jewish community of Palestine to rush preparations in a race against time in view of the threat- ened Arab aggression in defiance of the UN decision and the an- nounced early withdrawal of Brit- ish troops. Few Students Get Diplomas Although almost 1,500 students will graduate from the University at the close of the present semes- ter, only 40 of them will receive diplomas in the traditional man- ner, according to Dr. Frank E. Robbins, assistant president. The honored graduates will be members of the last war acceler- ated class from the dental school, and of the entire University. Pres- ident Alexander G. Ruthven will present diplomas to the senior dental students at a luncheon to be held Jan. 31 at the League. Other graduates will receive their diplomas by mail a short time after the end of the semester, Lou H. Ransom, diploma clerk, said. ing the day. The army repelled yesterday's foray. The deadly battle in the South took place in orange groves near Gaza on the coastal plain. Arabs of Isdud, north of Gaza, and Jews of the Yavna settle- ment clashed. Troops of the Roy-I al Sussex Regiment and police rushed in to restore order, put the battle lasted for several hours. Twelve of the dead were Jews and eight were Airabs. There were no British casualties. Arab Seige An Arab force, estimated by police to number 100 men, also laid seige to the Jewish settle- ment of Ramat Rachel on the outskirts of Jerusalem near the residence of Gen. Sir Alan Cun- ningham, the Palestine High Commissioner. A British police officer in that area was injured. In the sniping which preceded the siege Maj. Nicholas Androni- vitch, military attache of the United States Consul General, narrowly escaped injury when his horse was shot from under him while he was riding on a bridle path nearby. The major's horse was hit twice by high powered rifle bullets. Firing Continues The British said military armed cars had been sent to Ramat Ra- chel, a tiny Jewish cooperative community with a population of 365. Firing continued there to- night, however, and soldiers were sending up flares to illuminate the scene.

Administration Will Itemize Aid Program WASHINGTON, Jan. 10-(R)- The State Department agreed to- day, at senatorial requests, to cal- culate how much of the European aid program will be spent for 're- lief' and how much for "recovery." The Department's spokesman, Ambassador Lewis Douglas, also agreed with a senator's estimate that the United States may re- cover up to $2,800,000,000 in loan repayments out of the $6,800,- 000,000 which President Truman and Secretary of State Marshall asked to finance the first 15 months operation of the program. Douglas, Ambassador to Great Britain, told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee it is "al- most impossible to segregate" the relief and recovery phases of the program. Nevertheless he pro- mnised chairman Vande nberg he would supply a breakdown rome- time next week. The State Department witness tol dthe Senators that some of the 16 nations would receive "almost nothing" under a staight relief program. Demands for the breakdown be- tween relief and recovery, "cou- try by country," came first toda-, from Senator Hickenlooper (R- Iowa). He said such a segregation of "relief, raw materials and cap- ital goods" would prove a very helpful yardstick" both for the Congress and for the administra- tion of the program.

For the last two minutes of play, the 8,000 screaming spec- tators were on their feet constant- ly as Michigan defended their slim margin. With the score 42-38, Minnesota elected to take the ball out-of- bounds to try for a two-pointer rather than attempt a free throw. Center Don MacIntosh blocked the ball on the throw-in and fiery guard Pete Elliott scooped it off the floor. Close Scare High scoring pivot man, Jim McIntyre, was awarded two charity tosses, and after making the first one good, the Gophets took the ball on the sidelines a- gain. McIntyre received the ball again and dumped it into put the Gophers within one point of Michigan. Michigan began to stall after this bucket with slightly more than a minute to play.

Roberts Stars In this last minute, Michigan players were fouled five times, and each time they elected to play the ball from the sidelines. To six-foot-six inch Bill Rob- erts must go a great share of the credit for the Michigan win. A- ter the first five minutes when the Wolverines presented the Cowles version of the zone defense,Mich- igan switched and alternated be- tween the orthodox man-to-man and zone defenses.
