LXI, No. 115 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN SUNDAY, MARCH 18, 1951 RAIN EIGHT PAGES 'U' Puckrnen Beat Brown; Win NCAA Fast Team Play Nets 7-1 ictory By JIM PARKER Special to The Daily COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.- Michigan's puckmen put on their greatest performance of the sea- son last night as they walloped the Brown University Bruins, 7 to 1, to win the 1951 NCAA Hockey Tournament at the Broadmoor Ice Palace here. The triumph was truly a team victory as the Wolverines dis- played a brilliant defense coupled with potent offensive power and speed to completely outclass the Brains, who put up -a game but hopeless battle. * * * THE DEFENSIVE work of Bob Heathcott, Alex McClellan, and Graham Cragg was beautiful to behold. Repeatedly they threw back Brown scoring thrusts and, their backchecking plus the alert- ness of the Wolverine forward A lines kept Brown from ever mak- ing a serious threat. So outstanding was the Maize and Blue defense that goalie Hal Downes, who played a fine game himself in the nets, did not have a single save on a Brown shot on goal for the first 15 minutes of the game. Oddly enough there wxs very little bodychecking by Wolverine forwards and defensemen. The Wolverines threw back the Brown attackers by the simple process of poking the puck off their sticks before they ever could get over the Michigan blue line. * * r BUT IN ADDITION to the great work of the defense, which had been a sore spot in previous hock- (Continued on Page 6) Senators Ask Casey Recal, In RFCPr e WASHINGTON -()P)- Embat- tled Republican senators investi- gating alleged favoritism in gov- ernment loans yesterday demanded one more crack at former Rep. Casey (D-Mass), one of economic stabilizer Eric Johnston's top aides. The move to needle Casey about an admittedly faulty memory may add new fuel to a mounting con- troversy between Democrats and Republicans of a Senate banking subcommittee now winding up a drama-packed inquiry into Re- construction Finance Corporation loans. The Republicans want to keep the inquiry going. SENATOR Fulbright (D-Ark), the subcommittee chairman, con- tends his group already has proved the RFC was subject to political influence and that the committee should now let some more appro- priate group take over. He de- mands an investigation of the moral standards of government as a whole, but insists his subcommit- tee is not the one to handle this because it was created to handle only RFC matters. The subcommittee has named Casey as an associate of men with White House contacts who wielded influence on RFC loans. Casey denied he had any undue influence anywhere in govern- ment. Senator Bennett (R-Utah), a member of the subcommittee, touched off the move to recall Casey as a witness. Casey got into hot water with rthe subcommittee when he testi- fied recently that a Treasury of- ficial's informal ruling had guided him to a big saving in federal taxes on a $250,000 profit on a $20,000 Investment.

Government officials yesterday were reported leaning toward solu- tion of the nation's wage control troubles. A good many labor and in- dustry leaders are expecting such a solution. Action is possible-though far from certain-next week. * * * *I IT SHOULD BE A LIVELY week in the field of economic controls. Taft Attacks Government 'Corruption' Blasts Whitewash Of Red Probe CHARI.OTTESVTT1, VA.-(UP) -Sen. Robert Taft (R-O) last night unleashed an all-out attack on the Truman administration, accusing it of "political corrup- tion" and declaring charges of Reds-in-government were "white- washed." In an address prepared for an eastern Young Republican college conference, Sen. Taft charged "five percenters and influence peddlers are still doing business in Washington at the same old stand." Advancing Allied Troops Approach 38th Parallel So rNew Heavy Censorship. Y r Masks Front WdestHolds Fast on Big. Four Slate PARIS-,(JP)--The three western deputies told Andrei Gromyko in hardening words at the windup of the second week of conferences yesterday they want a Big Four foreign ministers meeting - but not at any price. A French spokesman said the Soviet deputy foreign minister, Philip Jessup of the United States, Ernest Davies of Britain and Alexandre Parodi of France had a rather bad session, with each side repeating a lot of "known arguments." Parodi was quoted as telling Gromyko the West will not go to a Big Four meeting "with its hands tied." However, the Western deputies extracted no concessions from Gromyko which might lead to ironing out a list of subjects to be discussed by a foreign minis- ters' meeting with a view to easing off the mounting international steam pressure. Tomorrow the deputies will hold their 13th session with the situa- tion just about as it was when the talks began Mar. 5. Gromyko is demanding the de- militarization of Germany and reduction of armaments of the Big Four be taken up as separ- ate and paramount items. Name Senator For Kentucky FRANKFORT, Ky.,-P)-Thom- as Underwood was appointed to the United States Senate yester- day by Gov. Lawrence Wetherby. Underwood, Democratic c o n- gressman from the sixth district and editor of the Lexington Her- ald, will replace Virgil Chapman, Democrat, of Paris, Ky., who died of injuries received in an automo- bile accident in Washington Mar. 8. Gov. Wetherby handed the ap- pointment order to Thomas Under- wood, Jr., who will deliver it to his father in Washington. Underwood will be sworn in as a senator to- morrow. Labor leaders, an estimated 700 of them, are heading for Wash- ington for rallies Tuesday and Wednesday at which they will demonstrate against high prices and attack the "inadequacy" of price controls. Government price controllers haggled meantime over what per- centage of "mark-up" to allow in Sood stores. The Office of Price tabilization now expects to issue two retail orders and one whole- sale food order within the next week. ** S OPS DIRECTOR Michael Di- Salle has said the new "mark-ups" -showing food sellers how much they can add to what they pay- will roll back most food prices and roll forward only a few. However, on most foods, a rolled back price would be free to rise again later if the farmer's price went up. Yesterday Edward Morgan, OPS enforcement director, ordered his field-investigating staff to start an "immediate nationwide check" to make sure that manufacturers and wholesalers are keeping the rec- ords required by price control regu- lations. Concerning the new wage stabi- lization board, it is reported the board's powers to settle disputes would be along the lines proposed by Economic Stabilizer Eric John- ston. Peron Slaps Control Board On La Pr ensa BUENOS AIRES, Argentina- (AP)- A nine-man congressional committee to take over affairs of the strikebound independent news- paper LaPrensa is expected to be completed tomorrow. Three members from the all- Peronista senate have already been named. The appointment of six deputies-five followers .of Presi- dent Juan D. Peron and one radi- cal-is to follow. The seizure of the multi-million dollar newspaper was authorized in a resolution adopted in a special session of congress Friday night, over the opposition of a handful of radicals in the house. The resolution gives the commit- tee full power to keep silenced the paper which was President Peron's strongest domestic critic. LaPrensa has been closed for 51 days by a boycott of the govern- ment-backed news vendors union and a sympathy strike called by the printers union. FIVE percenters are those who charge a fee for their services in obtaining government contracts. Sen.

The ex-governor, key speaker at a state Democratic luncheon in the Union, said that continued paring of University budgets would end in "either the laying off of 400 in- structors or the closing of a school." "Nobody wants to do that," Re- gent Van Wagoner said. * * * AT THE SAME time Regent Van Wagoner, who was appointed to the Boar&by Gov. G. Mennen Wil- liams to serve the unexpired term of the late Regent Ralph Hayward, stressed the need for expansion of the University's medical facilities to meet the need for more doctors. Moreover, he asserted, faculty sal- aries at t h e University and throughout the state must be Taised to avoid further loss of top personnel to other states. Addressing himself to Mayor- alty candidate Louis Riemann, Van Wagoner went on record as favoring closer cooperation be- tween the University and Ann Arbor in maintaining the city's services. "As intelligent men," Regent Van Wagoner said, "the Regents and the city council can sit down together and work out some fair means of payment." Regent Van Waigoner, whose earlier positions have included that of state highway commissioner and more recently, military governor of Bavaria, told his audience, about . " > '.t, ; ::. a k; ...

The others were Joe Adonis, described by the committee as a crime-syndicate lieutenant of Costello's, and big-time gambler Frank Erickson, now serving a prison term. Halley said that testimony of New York City Water Commission- er James Moran and of accused Brooklyn numbers bookie Louis Weber also would be reviewed by the U.S. Attorney for possible per- jury charges. AT THE SAME TIME, a com- mittee-appointed physician today decided Costello was physically able to testify for "a couple of hours each day" without suffering any harm. Armed with the new medical re- port, the committee will summon him again next week. Halley, in disclosing actions resulting from the first week's sessions, said the evidence had shown more clearly that CosteY- lo is "the boss of New York and the Eastern underworld." The star witness on tap for to- morrow is former Mayor William O'Dwyer, now ambassador to Mex- ico, who flew in Friday to appear voluntarily as a witness. Palm Sunday Palm Sunday will be cele- brated throughout the city to- day in churches and youth groups. Most churches will hold their regular Sunday services em- phasizing the story of Christ's entry into Jerusalem on the first Palm Sunday. Others have planned special programs for the day. Members of Roger Williams Guild will conduct a candle- light vesper service at 7 p.m. in- the Baptist church. A special student mass at St. Andrews Episcopal church will be held at 9 a.m., and will be followed by breakfast at Can- terbury House. Local churches are also plan- ing meetings throughout the 1week leading to Easter. Professors, Score New MSC Ruling Michigan State's controversial ban on faculty participation in federal or state partisan politics was revised yesterday but the changed regulation was still termed "a dangerous compromise of prin- ciple" by one University professor last night. This was the verdict of Prof. 0. M. Pearl of the classical studies de- partment, and a local officer of the American Association of University Professors. Emphasizing that he did not speak for the AAUP, Prof. Pearl said, "I trust that our own Regents are wise enough not to try to implement any ruling of that sort." ** * THE MSC RULING originally called for faculty members engag- ing in politically partisan activity to either resign their posts or se- cure leaves of absence for the dur- ation of that activity. The ban met a storm of pro- test both at MSC and on this campus, followed by 8 months of slow negotiation between MSC officials and representatives of the AAUP and the State Board of Agriculture (governing body of MSC). The revised regulation calls for limitation of the ban to candidates running for federal or state offices and will also permit these to ar- range possible continuation of their college work on a part-time basis. * * * PROF. PRESTON Slosson, of the history department, who had scored the original regulation as a demand that the professor "sac- rifice his conscience", said last night that the ruling was "Very much improved". "But if a professor does his work well," Prof. Slosson added, "whether he devotes his leisure time to bottle-pool or politics should be of no concern to the school." Like Prof. Slosson, Prof. Arthur' Bromage of the politcal science de-! partment and an Ann Arbor city council member, saw the new reg- ulation as an improvement. Greeks Repulse Attacking Reds TOKYO - (R)'- Greek troops, using fixed bayonets, bloodily re- pulsed Chinese Red banzai at- tacks yesterday in Central Korea. In the West and East, other Allied forces rolled north toward the 38th parallel against light re- sistance. A heavy censorship shielded the progress of the advance. Allied troops were as close as 15 miles to the 38th parallel when censor- ship was clamped down .Friday midnight. General MacArthur's headquar- ters said that the banzai attacks northwest of Hongchon in Central Korea were all the back-tracking foe could muster anywhere. IN THE EAST-central sector, some Allied advances were unop- posed. The Greeks killed 222 Reds and wounded 60 more in cap- turing and holding a hill posi- tion on the approaches to Chun- chon. The enemy must hold that vital base only eight miles below the 38th parallel if they are to stay anywhere in South Korea. The Greeks beat off three Com- munist counterattacks in 50 min- utes. It occurred in an area where the Reds are estimated to have up to 250,000 men massed north and south of Chunchon. BUT ACROSS the more than 120 miles of the Korean front, the Reds' still offered no large-scale opposition to the advancing Allies. And there were even signs they were slowing up on movement of supplies to the front. U.S. Fifth Air Force pilot* reported spotting no trains and only about 160 vehicles last night after shooting up five trains the night before. In the past week, Allied planes claim to have knocked out 1,100 en- emy vehicles and 360 units of railroad rolling stock. The Allied drive was "going well," General MacArthur said on his return to Tokyo last night from his second ;visit to the front in 10 days. There was no immediate indi- cation whether MacArthur's sur- prise trip to captured Hongchon on the central front meant new offensive planning was under way, or was simply a routine inspec- tion. * * * Crew members of the USS Phil- ippine Sea, an aircraft carrier, have made a unique gift of $3,600 to the University to be used for the legal education of a Philippine student.

Prof. Leigh C. Anderson was reappoint- ed as chairman of the chemistry department for a five year term beginning In the fall of 1951. A temporary chairman, Prof. George F. Hourani, was named to the Department of Far Eastern Stud- ies for the spring and summer terms of 1951. The appointment covers the period while the regu- lar chairman Prof. George G.
