Convicted arsonist Robert H.
Stacy will leave today for a 5 to
10 year term in Southern Michi-
gan Prison at Jackson unless an
expected appeal for another tem-
porary stay of sentence is grant-
ed.
Stacy was sentenced last Thurs-
day by Circuit Judge James R.
Breakey, Jr. Breakey recommend-
ed that the former University
Steaching fellow be made to serve

the minimum term.
AT THE SAME time he granted
the 30-year-old arsonist a 10-day
stay which expiired last night.
But Washcenaw County police
officials said yesterday that Leo-
nard H. Young, Stacy's court-ap-
pointed lawyer, would probably
ask Breakey to grant a new ex-
-tension this morning.
Stacy's sentencing, originally
scheduled for ' today, was ad-

lGiant Crowd Welcomes
Rose Bowl Champions
By DAVE THOMAS
Wined, dined and a trifle travel weary, Michigan's 1951 Rose
Bowl champions received a warm homecoming welcome from a crowd
of 5,000 townspeople and students as their special train arrived early
Saturday evening at the New York Central depot.
The crowd which swarmed around the ancient stone station and
struggled for vantage points on the bridge and surrounding embank-
ments, braved a biting wind and temperatures in the low twenties
to roar their approval of the gridders' 14-6 conquest of California.
. . . *
AS THE TEAM MEMBERS filed from their 13 car train to the
welcoming strains of "The Victors" played by the Ann Arbor High
School Band, they were mobbed by happy friends, appreciative par-
'ents and small children with auto-
i, TYjgraph0books.

1..A. Hayward,
'UT' Regent, in
Critical State
,The critical condition of Re-
gent Ralph A. Hayward was des-
cribed yesterday as "unchanged"
by University Hospital officials.
Regent Hayward entered the
hospital last Wednesday and un-
derwent a brain operation Thurs-
day to relieve intra-cranial pres-
sures. He has not regained con-
sciousness since the operation and
doctors describe his state as ser-
ious.
The prominent 55 - year - old
Michigan businessman was elected
to the Board of Regents in April,
1943. His term expires at the close
of this year.
A graduate of the University,
Regent Hayward was appointed
assistant professor of engineering
here in 1923 but resigned the fol-
lowing year to become general
manager of the firm which he now
heads.
Regent Hayward is a trustee of
Kalamazoo College, chairman of
the Michigan State Highway Ad-
visory Board and a member of
several corporation boards of di-
rectors.

Fullback Don Dufek who scor-

The welcome exceeded in num-

ception accorded a Michigan team.
Adding color to the Ann Arbor
welcome was a set of railroad
flares on the enbankment behind
the station spelling out the word
"Champs."

Eisenhower,
Top French
Officials Talk
PARIS-()--Gen. Dwight D.
Eisenhower got down to brisk talks
with the French yesterday on just
what they are going to do to help
defend the west against any push
from the east.
American military sources said
the answers he got help support
the General's belief that the At-
lantic community can build an
international army to defend
Western Europe. There was no of-
ficial word from the talks, but it
was believed the French pledged
immediate transfer of their three
divisions now in Germany and
Austria to the Eisenhower pom-
mand.
An authorized source said "all
the problems of defending Eur-
ope," were discussed.A

movies with the SL Cinema Guild
for next semester.

Williams Requests More Jebb Urges
' U' Funds in Budget Talk Another Try

for the completion of the out-pa-
tient clinic.
Williams asked for the $37,-
000,000 to complete construction
projects already committed, to
wipe out various departmental
and operating deficites and to
speed up the highway construc-
tion program.
$27,000,000 of the total would
come from the state's general
fund, which was $21,000,000 in the
red at the end of the last fiscal
year. The other $10,000,000 would
be highway money which already
has been collected and earmark-
ed for road purposes but not yet
appropriated by the legislature.
The governor asked for a net
of $10,400,000 to complete con-
struction projects on which some
money already has been spent. He
contended that the construction
outlook is so uncertain 'that all
projects should be rushed to com-
pletion before building costs rise
further or materials become un-
available.

To Halt War
LAKE SUCCESS-(P)-Britain's
Sir Gladwyn Jebb yesterday'
urged the United Nations to make
one more attempt to obtain a
cease fire in Korea.
He indicated Britain is not yet
ready for a final decision on
American demands for UN con-
demnation of Red China as an ag-
gressor. The American demands
are being pushed in behind-the-
scenes talks and have not yet
reached the UN Assembly Political
Committee in a formal document.
Jebb told the Political Commit-
tee the UN should weigh its ac-
tions carefully arid a "last effort"
for a cease-fire should be made
before more drastic steps are con-
sidered. The committee adjourned
at his suggestion until Thursday
to permit more talks among the
delegates.
The British delegate warned
Red China that a final break
with the UN and all the UN repre-
sents would have a dreadful effect
on the Chinese people.

Calls for Full
Mobilization
If Necessary
Tells Congress
Of State of Union
WASHINGTON-()-President
Truman told the nation yester-
day that "we will fight, if fight
we must" to block the threat of
world conquest by Soviet Rus-
sia.
In a rousing 3,500-word speech,
heard by millions over radio and
television networks, the President
called for a vast mobilization ef-
fort capable of producing 50,000
planes and 35,000 tanks a year if
needed.
Solemnly, he pledged that the
United States will forsake neither
Western Europe nor other free
nations in the struggle against
Red aggression.
THE PRESIDENT said more
money, a "major" tax increase
and a bigger draft of manpower
will be needed to prepare for the
possibility of "a full-scale war."
Addressing a joint session of
Congress in his annual "state
of the Union" message, Truman
declared, "we are preparing for
full war-time mobilization, if
that should be necessary.-
"The threat of world conquest
by Soviet Russia endangers our
liberty and endangers the kind y
of world in which the free spirit
of man can survive.
"The threat is a total threat
and the danger is a common
danger," Truman said.
"All free nations arehexposed
and are all in peril. Their only
security lies in banding together.
No one nation can find protetion
in a selfish search for a haven
from the storm."
TRUMAN BITTERLY denoun-
ced Russia for waging "an evil
war by proxy" in Korea and called
it a move by "the Russian Com-
munist dictatorship to take over
the world step by step."
The President said the Uni-
ted States is willing "as we have
always been, to negotiate hon-
orable settlements with the So-
viet Union," but he declared,
"We will not engage in ap-
peasement."
Truman went to accuse the So
viets of keeping Russia and its
satellite nations "in a state of
perpetual mobilization."
"The imperialism of the czars
has been replaced by the even
more ambitious, more crafty, and
more menacing imperialism of the
rulers of the Soviet Union," he de-
clared.
Specifically, he called for high-
er taxes-he did not mention how
much higher - changes in the
draft law, greater powers to im-
pose wage-price controls, and con-
tinued military and economic aid
to this country's allies.
It is going to be "a long pull,"
he said.
