I U. S. Planes Bomb Base On Border Chinese Reds Hit In North Korea SEOUL -(P)- U.S. Superforts smashed the Chinese Communists' main border base in northwest Ko- rea yesterday with a massive at- tack of fire and demolition bombs. Pilots said the strike by 80 U.S. B-29s destroyed about 90 per cent of Sinuiju, Korean city of 100,000 across the Yalu river from Antung, Manchuria. AS 600 PLANES of the United Nations air arm blasted the North Korean border region in one of the war's largest aerial assaults Allied foot soldiers punched out short gains all along the front. Red forces contiued an unex- pected pullback from the north- * east battle sector. But pilots said heavy traffic-apparently more men and supplies-was rolling across Manchuria toward Korea. General MacArthur's Tokyo headquarters ordered a temporary news blackout on developments be- tween the battlefront and the Manchurian border r « THE UN Commander's Intelli- gence Officers said they were un- able to answer questions whether the Chinese and Korean Reds were planning an attack, consolidating their lines or preparing a series of delaying actions. A. U.S. Eighth Army spokesman said Red Chinese troops may be avoiding a fight in North Korea pending high level diplomatic moves which would affect the course of the Korean war. Both in the Northwest, where they face the Eighth Army, and in the Northeast where the U.S. 10th Corps is located, the Communists have been pulling back. Airliner Falls In Montana;22 Sent to Death PUTTE, Mont.-(R)-The bright red tail of a Northwest Airliner guided searchers yesterday to the wreckage of the plane which car- ried 22 persons to swift death on the backbone of the Continental Divide. Eight of the victims were wom- en, including two stewardesses, and two were children. The plane disappeared on a westward flight and ground parties reached the wreckage yesterday morning. The tail was the only part of the twin-engined Martin 202 in- tact among huge boulders just below the top of the divide, seven miles east of here. The rest of the burned plane was scattered at the head of Mo- desto canyon which cuts up the east slope of the divide. The plane struck the north wall of Homestake Pass, which aircraft usually fly through, at an altitude of about 8,500 feet. The wreckage was discovered almost exactly 24 hours after pilot Lloyd Lampman radioed from over Whitehall, southeast of here, that he was starting his instrument let- down into the mile-high mining city airport. 'U' Professor Killed by Auto ANN ARBOR-(A')-A 44-year- old professor was killed yesterday uln hp ar i±n n teath of GridPools Run By 'U' Students Campus Authorities, Police Deny Any Knowledge of Gambling Set Up (EDITOR'S NOTE-This is the first of a series of interpretive articles dealing with student-run football pools here on campus.) By DAVIS CRIPPEN Unnoticed by both city and University officials studbnt-run foot- ball pools have taken firm root on campus this fall. Because the pools are largely student-run locally, it is hard to get definite facts on their operations, since those who know the facts are unwilling to "squeal" on their friends. However, it is probable that: 1. There are at least two different pools and that they come from national syndicates. 2. The take of the pools each week is probably somewhere between $1500 and $2000 a week. 3. The campus pool organizations, right up to the top, are student- run, with the heads acting as the contacts with the national organiza- tions. At least one of the top student bookies-who said he had retired because he wasn't clearing enough for the risk involved-denied the national tieup. He went on to say, he'd heard that his rival had lost $1,000 the week before on a particularly easy card. He explained his competitor's ability to pay off by saying he prob- ably had built up enough reserves in the earlier part of the season. No one, by the way, has accused any of the operators of welching. It is probable, however, that such a loss could not be met with- out outside aid. Adding strength to the theory of outside tieups is the fact that the cards are not printed in Ann Arbor but are flown in each week. Just who the local agents are tied in with is an even murkier subject than their local operations. A student who has studied the operations as closely as anyone on the outside could, thinks that one of the cards comes out of St. Louis while thelother originates in Chi- cago. But these aren't the only possibilities. Names bandied about in campus rumors on the subject have included the Capone Gang and nationally known "financier" Frankie Costello. But wherever they come from, legally they should not be in Ann Arbor. City ordinance 121-An Ordinance Relative To Disorderly Per- sons and Conduct-says in Section 6, that "No person shall keep, carry on or maintain or aid in keeping, carrying on or maintaining any lottery, policy, pool, bucket shop or any like scheme." YET when Capt. Albert Heisel of the Ann Arbor Police was asked about the situation, he replied shortly, "We don't know any- thing about it." Heisel heads the department's Plainclothes Division which is supposed to check gambling in the town. However, Heisel did add, "If you find anything out, we'd like to know about it." University administrgtors, when queried on the problem, were equally in the dark. Dean of Students Erich A. Walter, who heads the Office of Student Affairs, which is entrusted with maintaining student discipline, knew nothing of the gambling activities, but declared, "We obviously disapprove" He went on to say that the policy followed in previous affairs of this kind was for the local police to apprehend the offenders and then turn them over to the University for punishment or, if the offense was more serious, to have them tried in the regular courts.

Korea Invitation Voted By Council, 8-2 By The Associated Press LAKE SUCCESS - The United Nations Security Council yester- day called on the Chinese Com- munists to appear before it to answer charges of aggression in North Korea. The United States charged that' the Chinese Communist have reck- lessly thrown thousands of troops into the war in North Korea and demanded an immediate halt to all Red aid to the Communist Kor- eans. THE INVITATION to the Red Chinese-termed by U.S. delegate Warren R. Austin as a summons to a witness-was extended by a vote of 8 to 2. The Council adjourned with- out setting a date for a new meeting but informed sources indicated the United States might toss in a resolution today backing up Austin's charges and demanding an early meeting. Austin and Nationalist China's T. F. Tsiang insisted the invita- tion must not delay the Council. The invitation was in the form of a British resolution supported by the United States, Russia, Ecu- ador, Britain, France, India, Yu- goslavia and Norway. Nationalist China and Cuba opposed it and Egypt abstained.I * * * NATIONALIST CHINA is one of the council members holding the veto but its negative vote did not count as a veto since the ques- tion of an invitation is only one of procedure. Austin touched, off fireworks with blistering charges against Red China based on a special re- port from Gen. Douglas Mac- Arthur, UN commander in Ko- rea. Austin said the Chinese Communists have put 30,000 men into North Korea and may- be more. He called for the Coun- cil to demand a halt to this aid, for withdrawal of the Commun- ist Chinese forces and for stop- page of unlawful aid to North Korea in the future. The U.S. delegate told the Coun- cil that the action of the Peiping regime raised the danger that the present conflict may not be limit- ed to the Korean area. The Council voted first on a Soviet resolution inviting the Communist Chinese to take part in the discussions of all angles of the Korean case: Several mem- bers objected that this was too broad. Russia and Yugoslavia alone voted for it. The United States, Nationalist China and Cuba voted against it and six abstained. A majority of seven is needed to carry any proposal in the coun- cil. Governor Waits For Official Tally DETROIT-(P)-Harry F. Kelly, hit the comeback trail after four years of voluntary retirement by nipping the governorship away from Democratic Governor G.

SL Gets Approval on Plan To Sell Football Programs By RICH THOMAS The Student Legislature got the green light to adopt a plan for the student sale of ten cent pro- grams on university property from the Board in Control of Intercol- legiate Athletics in its meeting last night. The Board ruling gives the SL iay Hit City Telephones Ann Arbor telephone service may be affected today if CIO Communi- cations Workers of America carry out their projected general strike at 6 a.m. today against the West- ern Electric Co. According to the Associated Press nine cities were hit by tele- phone strikes yesterday as the workers jumped the gun on the strike. Ann Arbor Local 301 announced that members of the engineering, plant and traffic departments of the Michigan Bell Telephone Com- pany would join in the statewide strike. The strike may cut off long dis- tance and some inter-city service out of Ann Arbor, according to N. J. Prakken, company manager for this area. The nation's capital suffered sporadic interruptions of long dis- tance service yesterday, while St. Louis, Boston, Denver, Pittsburgh, Kansas City, Mo., Philadelphia, Cleveland, Los Angeles and Louis- ville reported premature walkouts. However, supervisory personnel will take over on the switchboards in Ann Arbor if the walkout ma- terializes, Prakken reported. the sole right to sell or control the selling of tne inexpensive pro- grams on athletic department property in the stadium area (ex- clusive of the stadium itself) for the next two Saturdays. AS SOON AS the Legislature learned of the Board decision, it established machinery to admin- ister a quickly formulated plan for regulating this Saturday's pro- gram sale. Licenses will be issued from 3 to 5 p.m. today and tomorrow to student program vendors free of charge at the Student Legis- lature- building. The licenses will be good for ten cent pro- gram selling only, and will be displayed prominently by the vendors. The Legislature plans to ar- range with University officials for police officers to enforce the sys- tem. As yet, they have no plans as to printing and distributing to salesmen the ten cent programs themselves. * * EXPLAINING the Board's posi- tion, Jim Mitchell, '51E, student member of the Board, said, "We awarded the privilege to the SL to make possible the satisfaction of student desire to get the less expensive programs.". "It is the Board's intent that ten cent programs, and only ten cent programs, should be sold on the University's property," Mit- chell emphasized. * * * WHY WAS this special permis- sion given the SL for only the remainder of this football season? Don McEwen, '52, the other stu- dent board member explained: "If the SL is not successful in its two-game venture this fall, the Board wants to be able to arrange for a different system, in order to bring the cheaper pro- grams to students." In refusing to concede defeat, Williams said he owed it to the 900,000rodd voters who stood with him, to await for an official count. Williams carried 10 of the state's 83 counties, and held up supris- ingly well in many normally Re- publican areas. In eight counties he came close, including such us- ual G.O.P. strong points. OF THE precincts still missing, none were in populous Wayne County where Democratic strength lay heaviest. Indications were that Kelly1 cannot fail to pick up a scattered few more votes than Williams. The entire Republican state tic- ket was swept into office and the voters, with fine impartially, re- fused to break the ratio between Republican and Democratic rep- resentatives in Congress. MICHIGAN elected its first Con- gresswoman, white-haired vigorous Miss Ruth Thompson of rural Whitehall in western Michigan. Miss Thompson, a former leg- islator, grabbed victory in the Ninth district from Noel P. Fox, Democrat, who heads the state{ Labor Mediation Board. . Four public ballot questionsk swept strongly to victory. These included constitutional amend- ments to outlaw subversive activi- ty, float a $65,000,000 bond issue to finance new mental and tubercu- losis hospitals and change the vot- er residence requirement and a re- ferendum to legalize the hale of colored oleomargarine. * * * DETROIT, which polled a re- cord off-year vote total of 585,000 ballots, came through smashingly for Williams, but the county area surrounding Wayne, softened in the final mad vote drive and failed to produce as expected. For the second straight year, Secretary of State Fred M. Al- ger, Jr., of Grosse Pointe, led the Republican ticket, Beaten by Kelly for the G.O.P. nomination in the gubernatorial primary, Alger rolled up 15,000 more votes than Kelly and wallop- ed his Democratic opponent, Phil- ip A. Hart of Birmingham, by a majority of 183,000 votes., Democratic Attorney General Stephen J. Roth, whom some thought might slip through to vic-, tory even if the ticket failed, ran 103,000 votes behind Williams but lost by the smallest margin of the lower ticket, 62,000 votes to Repub- lican Frank Millard of Flint. Senator William C. Vandenberg of Holland was chosen Republican Lieutenant Governor by 90,000 votes over the Democratic incum- bent, John W. Connolly of Detroit. Republican Gain Points to Friction By, The Associated Pres Two more years of friction be- tween the White House and the Capitol appeared to be one sure result of the off-year Congression- al elections as Republicans ut the Democratic majority in both houses of Congress. In the Senate, the Democrats hold a two-man majority with a tally of 49 Democrats and 47 Re- publicans for a net gain of five men for the Republican party. The House is divided with 234 Demo- crats, 200 Republicans and one in- dependent, for a 31-man gain for the Republicans. A bare House majority is 218. * * * IN A TIGHT Connecticut Con- gressional race, Prescott Bush, Re- publican candidate for the short term Senatorial post was defeated unofficially by Democratic incum- bent William Benton by about 1200 votes. Bush refused to concede the election and his office said yester- day in a statement that it was "probable" he would ask for a recount. In Colorado, Republicans return- ed Eugene D. Millikin to the Sen- ate, elected cattleman Dan Thorn- ton Governor, recaptured most state offices and won overpower- ing control of the State legisla- ture. In the fact of Taft's election and the general Republican swing, or- ganized labor's political forces, which poured/ more money and energy into Tuesday's election campaigns than in any off-year in history, gloomily acknowledged crushing setbacks. Aboard the yacht My Mary Gail, President Truman was described as "very cheerful" yesterday de- spite an election result quite dif- ferent from the Democratic land- slide he had predicted. * * * Heads of YD, YR Comment On Elections The president of the Young Democrats yesterday accused the Republicans of resorting to "smear tactics" in their recent campaign, while the president of the Young Republicans maintains that the election merely indicates a trend away from the Fair Deal According to F r a n Wagman '52L, president of the Young Dem- ocrats, the Republican victory was due to what she termed, "the Re- publican smear tactics." She said that the anxieties the American people felt over the tense foreign situation led them to accept the Republican charges. Concerning the local elections, she said that she was proud of Prof. John P.

Joseph McCarthy in- troduced, he added. "HOWEVER, as a rule, off-year elections are usually unfavorable to the incumbent party," Prof. Knappen asserted. lieve that the Korean War and the formidable Chinese situation were factors of major significance in electing an increased number of Republicans. This is true, even though Re- publicans as a party have shown considerable sympathy with Gen- cates and leading city admini- strations (mainly in New York and Illinois) as contributing to Democratic defeats. However, Prof. Kallenbach con- sidered the outcome of the elec- tions as not surprising, with the axrno. inn of fa rlpfpn tof q and introduce the draft, it is re- markable that the public did not show more resentment against them," he added. * * * COMMENTING ON the State gubernatorial race, Prof. Samuel J.
