Squad Whips
Bucks, 19-9
Score Eight Runs
In Initial Inning
By BOB MARGOLIN
Special to The Daily
COLUMBUS - Those overdue
Wolverine batters suddenly came
to life yesterday to give Michigan
an easy 19-9 victory over Ohio
State in the Big Ten season's open-
er for both teams.
Lanky Paul Ebert, the best hurl-
er the Buckeyes could offer, nev-
er got past the first inning as the
Fishermen pounded him merciless-
ly. Michigan put together five hits
and four walks off Ebert and his
successor, southpaw Dave Bech-
tel, for eight runs in the opening
frame and coasted in to the win.
TODAY, Coach Ray Fisher will
send his "Goldust Twins" of the
1952 campaign, Jack Corbett and
Marv Wisniewski against Illinois
in a twin-bill at Champaign. Cor-
bett, a righty, and Wisniewski, a
lefthander, will be up against I-
lini righthanders Clive Follmer
and Jack Schuldt.
Chunky Jack Ritter, rookie
southpaw, drew the starting
mound assignment against the
Buckeyes, and he rolled in to his
first Western Conference win as
his teammates cut loose for 12
runs in the first three innings.
Ritter wasn't in top form in the
cold drizzly weather and he was
behind on two counts most of the
afternoon, walking five and fan-
ning three. He left the mound in
favor of lefthander Dick Yirkosky
when the OSU batsmen kicked up
their heels to get six runs in the
eighth frame.

Reds Release
More Prisoners
Peace Talks Will Begin Tomorrow;
Further Exchange Plans Uncertain
By The Associated Press
Seventeen more American sick and wounded returned to freedom
from the Communist stockades of North Korea yesterday, swelling the
total U.S. repatriates in six days to 136 men from all branches of
the service.
The Reds also released four British, four Turks and 25 South
Koreans.
* * * *
ALL CAME back to the assurance of adequate care and comfort
in hospitals or in their family homes as the needs may require.
This was in contrast to the crude and often skimpy care
which earlier repatriates had said was given in Red hospitals and
stockades.

$40 Penalty

By ALICE BOGDONOFF
"Door to door soliciting" dur-

the Inter-House Council judiciary
ruled yesterday.
The two other election candi-
dates, Fred Hicks, '54, and Al
Strauss, Grad., who were accused
of violating quad electioneering
rules were warned but given no
penalty by the IHC Judiciary.
STRAUSS WAS charged with
slipping campaign literature under
quad room doors and Hicks with
placing posters in the washrooms.
Perry, a resident of East Quad,
was accused of violating the

Fo Hospiltl
By JOYCE FICKIES
The proposed $2,000,000 State
mental hospital for children will
be located on campus and oper-
ated by the University, the Senate
Appropriations Committee an-
nounced yesterday in Lansing.
The Committee, now reviewing
the state's $65,000,000 mental hos-
pital bond issue, earmarked $1,-
000,000 of the sum for beginning
construction of the hospital and
attached a ride rspecifying that
the institution must be built in
Ann Arbor.
THE BILL was prepared so that
committee members said Gov. G.
Mennen Williams could not veto
it withoutrejecting the entire
mental health budget.
Members of the committee
thus took a stand against strong
demands in some circles for the
hospital to be built at North-
ville. Backers of the Northville
site say that it would be close
to the stiff of Wayne iiverslty
and a larger case load in De-
troit.
Waldo Buss, associate director

While yesterday's repatriation
completes the over-all quota the
Reds originally pledged, there was
every hope that the flow of Allied
wounded would continue to stream
across the line in the tiny truce
village of Panmunjom.
Both sides have said they would
return more disabled captives than
first promised.
The Communists Saturday said
they would exchaige 84 Allied sick
and wounded prisoners Sunday, in-
cluding 13 Americans.
THE REDS said they would de-
liver 50 South Koreans, of which
16 will be litter cases at 6 p.m. to-
day.
As the prisoner exchange con-
tinued, Allied bombers smashed
Communist troop and supply
concentrations in North Korea
Friday, while ground warfare
sputtered in a string of sharp
patrol actions.
Full-scale armistice negotiations
resume at Panmunjom tomorrow
for the first time since Oct. $.
Another 38 Allied repatriates
were fl.own from Korea to Japan
yesterday in a big C124 Globe-
master transport plane. Five were
carried aboard the Globemaster on
stretchers. The other 33 walked
up the ramp.

WHILE the transfer of disabled
captives by both sides was in ,pro.

oner of War Command in Pusan
disclosed that Chinese prisoners

Plan To Remodet
Present Studies
By ERIC VETTER
University television plans took
a giant step forward yesterday
when the Board of Regents au-
thorized an application for tele-
vision channel 26.
At the same time the Regents
authorized expansion and devel-
opment of present TV studios and
provided for the purchase of kine-
scope equipment for broadcasting
purposes. Expansion and equip-
ment is expected to cost $169,000.
BEFORE FORMAL application
is made for the ultra high frequen-
cy channel, a month-long study
of engineering and legal prob-
lems must be made. Formal appli-
cation with the Federal Communi-
cations Commission will take place
before the June 2 deadline given
the University in its channel op-
tion.
Present plans call for the
Unversity to pick up its option
and then go aheadl with arrange-
ments for the type, size, height
and location of the transmitter
needed for actual broadcasts.
While waiting for the transmit-
ter, the expansion program is ex-
pected to begin this summer. Plans
for the complete remodeling of
the present studios in the old
Dolph Funeral Home. on May-
nard St. are ready for contractors'
bids.
REMODELING. plans are de-
signed to allow the public to watch
the actual broadcasting of a TV
show through observation win-
dows. Included in the plans are
provisions for a large broadcast
studio, scene shop, observation
room, master control room and a
kinescope room.
Use of the latter will be to
make kinescope films of Univer-
sity programs. Special electronic
equipment is needed for the films
which will be used for rebroad-
casts, loans to regular TV chan-
nels and exchange with 'other
educational channels.

The program, expected to at-

of atomic energy, will be presented
June 20 to 26, according to Prof.
Donald L. Katz, chairman of the'
chemical and metallurgical engi-
neering department, and head of
the committee on nuclear energy
of the Institute.

PRELIMINARY plans for the
program call for invitations to at
least six other countries to join in
discussing new advances and de-
velopment in the field of atomic
operations.
Britain, Canada, Holland, Nor-
way, Sweden and Finland, are the
countries which have been invited
by the program committee to date,
according to Prof. Lloyd E. Brown-
ell, of the engineering school.
The conference ties in indirect-

assistant director of the project.
Jet, Bomber
Crash;_Six Die
WESTHAMPTON, N.Y.-- (R) -
A B29 Superfort and an F84
Thunderjet, on a secret experi-
mental mission high above Long
Island, crashed in flight yester-
day.
Six or seven men died. There
were no survivors.
The air Force said the nature
of the test flight was hush-hush.
It denied an early report that the
B29 was refueling the jet in flight
at the time of the crash.
t The pilot of the jet was identi-
fied by the Air Force as Maj. John
Davis, a test pilot from the Wright
Air Development Center at Day-
ton, 0.
The Air Force withheld the'
names of the bomber crewmen7

HE ADDED, "We had expected
a general pediatrics hospital which
would include psychiatric beds,
but evidently the Legislature felt
that the need was great enough
to build an entire hospital for
psychiatric cases."
Present capacity of the chil-
dren's unit in the Hospital's
Neuropsychiatric Institute is 25
children.
The children's hospital will
probably be located near the new

Buss said.
The children's hospital will be

proposed pediatrics unit. The unit
will specialize in such diseases as'
polio, cerebral palsy and rheu-
matic fever.
Ike Intervenes
To Halt Senate
Oil Filibuster
WASHINGTON-(tP)-President
Eisenhower intervened yesterday
in an attempt to halt a Senate
filibuster against the bill to estab-
lish state ownership of submerged
oil lands.
Calling for prompt passage of
the bill, he said he is "deeply con-
cerned" about the delay caused by
the 17-day debate. He said it is
holding up the administration's
legislative program.
HIS VIEWS were expressed in a
letter to Sen. Anderson (D-N.M.)
who on April 17 joined 24 other
Senators in asking the President
to state his position on the legis-
lation.
Newsmen asked Sen. Taft of
Ohio, the Senate's majority
leader, whether he thought Eis-
enhower's letter would break

Commenting on the "Perry
