Daily' Opportunities
Open
Up
for
New Staff er
Interested in meeting University administrators, visiting digni-
taries, campus leaders, or perhaps the city council?
Are you lookihg for a chance to show your selling ability, or put
into operation a favorite promotions scheme?
Do you like to get in past "keep out" signs and find out about
things before they happen?
IF ANY OF THESE situations appeal to you, you should come to
,any of the four tryout meetings which will be held at 4:15 p.m. and
7:30 p.m. today and tomorrow in th'e Student Publications Bldg.
At these times, newcomers will have an opportunity to sign
up for any of the five Daily staffs, editorial, women's, sports,
business, or photography. All students who are scholastically
eligible, including first semester freshmen, may become part of
the staff.
Experience is not necessary, since The Daily operates a training
program on each staff.
THOSE WHO JOIN UP will find themselves connected with a
,.
63 year old tradition of editorial and business freedom which has
made The Daily unique among campus publications.
They will find themselves working in a $500,000 plant which
is more complete than that of many small town periodicals. In-
cluded in the shop is a $70,000 rotary press, a photo-engraver
and four linotype machines.
The building has been occupied since 1932 when it was erected and
paid for entirely by Daily profits. They were accumulated mostly
during the 20's, when the publication, along with many other busi-
ness enterprises, roared to financial success.
The first Daily rolled off the press in 1890. A four column
eight by 12 sheet, it was the product of a group of independent
men who were irate with current campus conditions.
Their product was continued on its own until the turn of the
century, when the University purchased the paper's assets.
Since that time, The Daily has functioned under University
authority, but with students completely responsible for editing and
managing the enterprise.
WRITING STAFFS
Editorial, women's and sports tryouts will begin with the rudi-
ments of headline writing and proofreading and will progress to news,
feature and editorial writing. Automatic promotion to a reportership
with the responsibility of covering a beat goes to The Daily worker.
after one semester. In succeding semesters he will have a chance to
obtain a paying editor's position.
BUSINESS STAFF
Business mentors will be taught the basic skills in advertising,
finance, circulation, promotions and general business management.
They will get experience initially in all facets of the organization, and
after a semester will be able to *branch out in the field of their
choice.
PHOTOGRAPHERS
Experience will be a help, but not a necessity for any one who
wishes to become a news photographer. Since The Daily owns photo-
graphic equipment, it is not necessary for a photographer to possess
his own camera.

Spartans Bid for
Second Loop Win
By DAVE BAAD
After nearly a three week lay-
off due to the between semesters
break, Michigan's hockey team re-
turns to Midwest Hockey League
competition tonight, taking on last
place Michigan State in a Coli-
seum engagement.
The game starts at 7:30 p.m.
instead of the usual 8 p.m.
THE WOLVERINES, who tumb-
led into fourth place during their
period of inactivity, need a victory
over the Spartans tonight to get
back in the thick of the Midwest
Hockey League title chase.
A win, worth one point, would
move Michigan within one point
of third place Denver and put
the Maize and Blue only three
points behind the joint league
leaders, North Dakota and Min-
nesota.
Michigan State, meeting the.
Wolverines for the third time this
season, is in the midst of a dis-
astrous campaign, having won only
four games in sixteen starts. The
Spartans won their first league
victory last weekend when they
squeaked by Michigan Tech, 2-1.
IN PREVIOUS clashes this year,
Michigan has had little trouble
with Amo Bessone's six. In the9
first encounter, played at East
Lansing, Willard Ikola registered,
his only shutout of the season as
the Wolverines skated to an easy,
6-0 decision.
When the two clubs returned1
to the Coliseum, the Spartans
scored first, but Michigan soonf
turned the, contest into a rout,
ending up on the long end of af
10-2 score.

VA Executive
Shows Doubt
On TBUnits
Donald C. Bachman, State Leg-
islative Chairman for the Dis-
abled American Veterans, express-
ed serious doubt last night of the
possibility for carrying out the
decision to make 336 more beds
available for tuberculosis veteran
patients without converting the
new VA hospital here exclusively
to TB treatment.
The announcement concerning
the additional tuberculosis beds
was made by Sens. Homer Fergu-
son (R-Mich.) and Charles E.
Potter (R-Mich.) following a
Washington conference with Carl
R. Gray, Jr., head of the VA.
"I WONDER at the sincerity of
the promise when veteran TB
units are being closed down
throughout the state," Bachman,
who is also director of the local
Veterans' Center, said. "It is be-
yond me by what magic the extra
beds are going to be produced."
Authorities also revealed the
completion date for the Ann
Arbor hospital has been post-
poned again, this time to July.
Earlier, it was hoped operation
would begin in April, but first
patients probably will not be
accepted until October.
Attributing the delay to lack of
funds, Bachman said, "The VA
can't get the funds to carry out
the provisions Congress has leg-
slated."
'Survey, present the professor withj
a specimen of newly discovered
Huntite.
In addition to the mineral
specimen, Prof. Hunt received a
special "Michigan Issue" of the
American Mineralogist. He has
been editor of the publication
since 1922.
The retired professor received
his BA degree in 1904, his Master
of Arts degree in 1905 and Doctor
of Philosophy in 1915 from the
University. Joining the faculty in
1906,. he became chairman of the
department and director of the
mineral laboratory in f933. He re-
tired last September.

IFC Rushing
May Invade
SouthQuad
Presidents Give
OK; Await SAC
By ALICE BOGDONOFF
The long standing dispute be.
tween the Interfraternity Counci
and the Inter-House Council ovei
informal fraternity rushing ir
Quadrangles was temporarily eas-
ed last night at the IFC House
Presidents Assembly meeting.
The fraternity presidents gave
unanimous approval to an addi.
tion to the constitutional article
which provides "There shall be
no fraternity men in Universit3
Quadrangles at any time durin
the rushing period except those ir
residence at that Quadrangle."
The added clause states "Any
exceptions to this procedure
shall be by mutual e-t
to the student go
The framework of the tempor
ary "mutual agreement" was a
letter from Peter Ostafin, Assist-
ant Dean of Men's Residence
Halls. The agreement awaits ap-
proval by the Student Affairs
Committee since it involves a
change in the IFC constitution.
" r *
THE NEW agreement between
IFC and IHC provides fraternity
men may use Club 600 of the
South Quad for "informal con-
tacts with Quadranglemen" How-
ever, such contacts must cease at
10 p.m. IFC rules prohibit rush-
ing after 9 p.m.
Although granted their re-
quest for the use of Club 600,
the IFC failed to receive per-
mission to use the Quadrangle
common lounges for the ame
purpose.
Booth Tarkington, '54, South
Quad Council President, called
the terms a "certain backing
down on the part of IHC but gen-
erally agreeable." He claimed the
IFC has only been willing to dis-
cuss Club 600 and the longes
and will not consider IHC's pro-
posal for deferred rushing which
would mean no fall rushing.
Both East Quad Council presi-
dent Roger Kidston, '54, and Sam
Alfieri, West Quad Council presi-
dent, felt the agreement is "a
step forward in a long range pro-
gram to establish mutual under-
standing between the fraternities
and residencehalls."
In another move last night, the
fraternity presidents approved the
constitution of the newly formed
Junior IF which would, upon
SAC approval, officially establish
that organization.

General Reveals
China Mainland
Hit by Anti-Reds
Nationalist Estimates Heavy Losses
By Communists in 15 Guerilla Hits
By. The Associated Press
A senior Chinese Nationalist general disclosed yesterday in For-
mosa anti-Communist raiders have hit the mainland Reds 15 times
in the past seven months in a prelude to heavier blows.
He estimated guerillas inflicted 220,000 casualties on the Reds
in all operations in 1952, but made no estimate of guerilla losses.
The Chinese Nationalist Defense Ministry revealed two motor-
ized junks manned by guerillas sank a Chinese Red junk Monday
and captured two others in Wenchow Bay, 225 miles south of
Shanghai.
BACK IN WASHINGTON Gen. Omar N. Bradley reportedly
told Congress yesterday that United States arms shipments to
Forms ar en "tpe up."
The commendation further stat-
ed, "By his courage, fortitude and
selfless efforts in behalf of a ship-
mate, Lt. Upthegrove upheld the
*highest tradition of the United
States Naval Service."
While attending the Univer-
sity, Upthegrove was affiliated
with Phi Gamma Delta Frater-
nity and earned three letters as
a member of the swimming team.
He was also president of his
graduating class in the College of
Engineering.
Upthegrove is fire control offi-
cer aboard the destroyer, USS
Radford.
His parents, Mr. and Mrs. Clair
Upthegrove, live at 1474 Granger

Courthouse
Plans OK'd
Washtenaw County's $3,250,000
courthouse moved one step closer
to reality yesterday as the County
Board of Supervisors gave unani-
mous approval to preliminary de-
signs for the structure.
Beginning today, architect R..S.
Gerganoff and his staff will work
on final plans with construction
tentatively due to start early this
summer.
The only dissension over the
plans arose when Ypsilanti rep-
resentatives questioned whether
the carport planned for the build-
ing will accommodate enough
automobiles. As now approved
the facilities will take care of
107 vehicles.
Also passed by the supervisors
was a motion to erect a branch
county health office in Ypsilanti,
provided the federal government
supplies 45 per cent of the funds.
Because of their crowded agen-
da, members will meet again to-
day to hear various committee re-
ports.

he will seek re-nomination at the
Republican State Convention on
Feb. 21 while Otto E. Eckert, of
Lansing, the other incumbent, has
not stated his intentions.

DETROIT REPUBLICAN circles
advanced the name of George Ma-

as another possible candidate for
one of the posts.
Thomas N. Robinson, of Ben-
ton Harbor, and Hazen L. Hatch,
of Marshall, were nominated by
the Democrats for the positions
at their State convention Satur-
day.
Alleged Communist influence in
colleges and the controversial clos-
ed Regents meetings loom as the
key issues in the contest.
The question of Communism
gained emphasis when a news re-
port from Washington mention-
ed the University as one of sev-
eral institutions slated for inves-
tigation of Communism.
University President Harlan H.
Hatcher wired Rep. Harold H.
Velde, (R-Ill.), who is leading the
inquiry, that the University would
cooperate fully with Velde's com-
mittee and had nothing to hide.
Velde's reply to the wire said his
investigation would not be "di-
rected at specific institutions."
