Advise Arab
Governments
Make Peace
Riley-Says Truce
Now 'Dead Duck"
PARIS-()-A United Nations
source said tonight four Ar@
governments have been advised
their military position in Pales-
tine is "hopeless" and that they
had better make peace.
This authoritative informant,
who insisted upon anonymity, said
Brig. Gen. William E. Riley, a
United States Marine Corps Gen-
eral and Chief of Staff of the
United Nations Truce Mission in
Palestine, "minced no words" in
a three-hour conference with
Syrian, Egyptian, Lebanese ani
Iraq representatives.
THE SOURCE said, "Riley
made it clear that in the opinior
of the people who have to try to
work with it the truce now is a
dead duck."
The conference coincided
with reports published in Cairo,
butcdenied by Trans-Jordan
officials there,tthatt;King- Ab-
dullah of Trans-Jordan aTl3ady

* between his country and l brael
Riley was reported to have tol
the Arabs that as a military man
he believes time has come for the
Palestine truce of last July to be
replacedby some more suitable
basis for peace. The Jews, he
pointed out, are in complete mili-
tary .control of Palestine.

HE WAS said to have advised
them it will be difficult if not im-
possible for the mediator to ad-
minister the truce much longer-
especially if he has to enforce the
Security Council's lat-st order tc
Israel to withdraw from the stra-
tegic positions she occupied i
the Negev in the Oct. 14-21 fight-
ing with the Egyptianas.

Senators Ask
G overnmental
Pay Increases
WASHINGTON-(A') -Immed-
iate $5,000-a-year pay raises for'
members of the President's cabi-
net and some 20 other top gov-
ernment officials were urged to-
day by three Senators.
Senator Flanders (R - Vt.)
speaking also for Senators Bald-
win (R-Conn.) and O'Conor (D-
Md.) told reporters he expects the
next Congress, under Democratic
control, to vote the increases.
BOTH' PRESIDENT Truman
and his unsuccessful Republican
opponent, Governor Thomas E.
Dewey, have been urging higher
salaries to attract top-flight ex-

ecutives into government service
or retain those now there.
Flanders made public a bill
that would lift the pay for 218
officials from the present range
of $10,000-$15,000 a year to $15,-
000-$20,400.
"Our present pay range for
these leading appointive officials
is a mess," Flanders said. "Tn
some cases responsible heads of
departments and agencies are
paid less than many of their sub-
ordinates."
As an example many agency
heads are limited to $10,000 a
year while their chief subordin-
ates draw $10,330.

21st Straight Win
'M' Defense Stops Navy Attack;
Ortmann, Koceski, Rifenburg Star
By MURRAY GRANT
(Daily Sports Editor)
Michigan's high-flying Wolverines racked up their 21st straight
victory yesterday as they scored in every period to hand Navy their
seventh straight loss by a 35-0 margin.
Defensively the Wolverines were never better. Only three times
did Navy penetrate into Michigan territory and the farthest they ever
got was the Michigan 37-yard line. It was the first time this season
that the Middies have been held scoreless.
THE MAIZE AND BLUE forward wall was again miserly when it
came to giving up yardage as the Middies picked up only 73 yards for
the day. And pass defense, which has been weak this season, became
the strong point of yesterday's game.
The Middies completed only four passes out of 15 attempts
for a meager 46 yards and the Wolverines came up with two very
opportune interceptions.
It was Michigan's K.O. punch that stole individual honors as the
two great sophomores Leo Koceski and Chuck Ortmann had the Mid-
dies guessing all afternoon.

KOCESKI AVERAGED 6.6 yards per try as he cut inside the tac-
and skirted the ends to spread the Navy defense wide open. It
his running that set up two Wolverine scores before Coach Ben-
Oosterbaan started clearing his bench at the start of the final
od.

World News At A Glance
By The Associated Press
ATHENS-Prime Minister Themistokles Sophoulis said tonight his
coalition Greek government will resign Monday.
Sophoulis said last week-end he would quit but postponed his
action to await the return from Paris of Foreign Minister Con-
stantin Tsaldaris. Now he has sent a message to Tsaldaris asking
him to return to Athens, tomorrow if possible.
* * * *
PARIS-Russia's Andrei Y. Vishinsky charged today that Greece,
with the k(nowledge of the United States and Britain, is preparing
to hurl poison gas at Greek guerrillas.
This was part of a general blast at the United States in which
the Soviet deputy foreign minister charged the Truman adminis-
tration is building a network of military bases directed against
the Soviet Union and other countries. He did not amplify or
support with evidence his charge concerning poison gas.
WASHINGTON-Defense Secretary James Forrestal's cwn words
today indicated that he may leave the cabinet.
Forrestal, who has been in government service for eight years
and who has headed the defense establishment since Sept. 1947,
was asked by photographers at the White House to pose with
Navy Secretary John I. Sullivan. A photographer, referring to the
new term for the Truman administration, said "we are starting
another four years."
"But not for me," Forrestal interjected, laughing.
MOSCOW-Soviet Foreign Minister Molotov said last night
the American people had rejected a program of aggression and
reaction by defeating the Republicans in Tuesday's election.
But despite this expression from the people, Molotov said, the
.'ruling circles" in the United States and other Western countries are
preparing new aggressions and the "unleashing of new wars."
Molotov spoke before an audience of Soviet leaders in Moscow's
Bolshoi Theatre on the eve of the 31st anniversary of the Russian
revolution.
SZELL CONDUCTING:
Schumann To Be Played

Precipitates
New Group
The crisis over the recent firing
of an Olivet college professor and
his wife appeared to have touched
off a new organization to preserve
academic freedom.
More than 175 students and ed-
ucators, representing almost a
dozen Midwest campuses met yes-
terday in the small Michigan town
of Olivet and laid the ground work;,
according to Dick Nakamura, '51,
who attended the all-day confer-
ences, along with three other Uni-
versity students.
MOTIVES OF THE group would
be to "help Olivet in its crisis"
and work on a regional or national
basis, to preserve academic free-
dom, Nakamura reported.
The move climaxed heated de-
bate and student protest follow-
ing the sudden dismissal of Prof.
T. Barton Akeley and his wife
from Olivet's faculty last Au-
gust. The Akeleys have not been
reenstated.
Another organization precipitat-
ed by the fracas was a "rump"
group of Olivet alumni represented
at the mass meeting. Nakamura
reported that the 'organization's
president, Elmer Kerr pledged
support to the Olivet Student Ac-
tion Committee and the Olivet
plan of liberal education.
KERR INDICATED, according
to Nakamura, that his group in-
cludes the only alumni taking any
action on the issue.
Other speakers were Prof. Mil-
ton S. Mayer, of William Penn
College, and Prof. Alfred M. Lee,
of Wayne University, who in-
vestigated the Olivet situation
for the American Civil Liberties
Union.
The meetings were held in the
Olivet College Administration
Building.

Fail To Faze 'M' Fans

A near sell-out throng of some
85,000 fans watched the Wolver-

Despite threatening skies the
rain-coated crowd virtually filled
the huge bowl. The hundreds oc-
cupying temporary bleachers atop
the stadium were chilled by a
stiff rain-flecked wind.
ON HAND for the naval dis-
aster were four dejected Middie
cheerleaders and their goat mas-

lines calmly as Michigan lowered
the boom on Navy.
During half-time the crowd

of Marines reenacted the Iwo

over the hushed stadium.
Later the famed Michigan

With Michigan a cinch winner
over the underdog Navy team the

yesterday in favor of more sig-

Ortmann carried the ball for 83 yards and passed for an
additional 90 as he scored his first touchdown of the season and
heaved a 60-yard aerial for the final marker.
It was Ortmann, who almost single-handedly accounted for the
first Michigan score. Starting on the Middie 47 the Wolverines moved
all the way the first time they got their hands on the ball.
ORTMANN'S AERIAL TO DICK RIFENBURG on the Navy 26,
which was ruled complete because of interference, started the Wol-
verines on their way. Two plays later he passed to Ed McNeill on the
15 and, after Koceski had twisted his way to the 10, the lanky sopho-
more cut through tackle to the Navy two.
knifed through for his first collegiate touchdown.
Tom Peterson got to the one-foot line and then Ortmann.k
The second Maize and Blue score came at exactly the same
time in the second period. Again it was short effective burst that
counted as the Wolverine backs hammered at the Middie line.
THIS TIME MICHIGAN WENT 78 yards to paydirt as Peterson
ate up 45 yards on his own. He carried 8 and then 6 yards to put
the ball on the Michigan 36 and then he took over on the Navy 44
and slithered through a host of Middie tacklers all the way to the
24. Four plays later with the ball on the 10 he took off around
right end and went all the way to the Promised Land.
Harry Allis made the second of five straight conversions and
the Wolverines led, 14-0. From then on it was a punting duel
between Walt Teninga and Reaves Baysinger with penalties
being thrown in liberally.
It took Michigan only three plays to score their third touchdown
as Dick "Killer" Kempthorn recovered a Navy fumble on the Middle
25 shortly after the third period got under way. It was Koceski's
turn this time as he cut through the Navy line and got all' the way
to the 5-yard stripe before he was stopped.
TENINGA THEN CAME IN and in two tries at the Navy line he
had racked up the 20th Wolverine point. Allis again converted and
Michigan led, 21-0.
A few minutes later Michigan was knocking at the door
again. Teninga intercepted a Baysinger aerial on the Michigan
35 and twisted his back back to the Navy 20-yard marker.
Ortmann picked up six yards and then he knifed through the
Middies to the 8-yard stripe. But the Wolverine attack bogged down
and Navy took over on their own three.
THEY GOT NOWHERE and Gene Derricotte returned the Navy
punt to the Michigan 41. Peterson carried for 19 yards and then
Ortmann passed to Allis for 12 more. Ortmann picked up nine more
on a slant off tackle and Bob Van Summern hurled an 18 yard aerial
to Rifenburg in the end zone for the fourth marker.
Allis continued to bring back memories of Jim Brieske as he
converted for the fourth time.
The next time the Wolverines got their hands on the ball it
was all over and subs began to pour in. They took a Baysinger punt
on the Michigan 14 and began to move. It was all Ortmann again
as he ran twice for 7 and 21 yards to put the ball on the Michigan
42.
THEN WITH the wind to his back he faded to the Michigan
30 and heaved a tremendous 60 yard aerial to Dick Rifenburg on the
Navy 5. The big end just gathered in the pass with no one near him
and stepped across the final chalk stripe for touchdown number five.
Allis' educated toe made it 35-0, just one point better than
the score Notre Dame triumphed by last week.
