The break, announced on the Moscow radio, blamed the Israeli government and said its police connived in the assault. * * * THE SOVIET government ord- ered members of the Israeli lega- tion to get out of Moscow immed- iately and told its own legation personnel to leave Tel Aviv. Four Soviet, legation person- nel were injuired in the bomb blast. The bombing was attributed generally to anti-Zionist charges in Moscow in connection with a purge of nine doctors, some of them Jewish. The doctors were accused of destroying or attempt- ing to destroy some top Soviet leaders. The announcement of the break came a few hours after a Moscow broadcast accused Israeli police of "connivance" in the bomb explo- sion. -Daily-Malcolmx Shatz UNION TRYOUTS-Executive Councilman Phil Flarsheim, '54, tallied Union to a group of prospective tryouts at the "Union Try- out" smoker held yesterday in the Union. Issuing its biannual call for tryouts the "all men's organization" is holding a second smoker at 8:30 p.m. today in Bm. 3A of the Union for all male under graduates interested in working in the student offices. Members of the Executive Council will be on hand to outline details of Union organization and activities. TRYOUT BLUES: Give Me Some Men' Lonesome Editor Cries Donna Hendleman, Daily Associate Editor, is lonesome. Miss Hendleman, whose business number is 2-3241, is in charge of tryouts at The Daily. And she can't find any men. "Everywhere I look there are women," she moaned. "I want men." (Because of some reasons as yet unknown, the famous Michigan ratio has reversed itself with the sophomore Daily staffs). * * * * ALTHOUGH her six associates in the senior editorial office have offered their services, she maintains that they cannot qualify as' Tryouts. MOSCOW RADIO said a formal note to, Israel severing relations was "in connection with the bomb explosion." Israeli government officials, headed by Premier David Ben- Gurion, already had denounced the bombing as a "dastardly" act which they said reflected on the honor of the state of Israel. #Authorities in Tel Aviv launched a roundup of suspects in connec- tion with the bombing, arrest- Ing both Jews and Arabs in var- ious parts of the country. Anti-Communist Israelis yes- terday broke up a pro-Soviet rally in the center of Tel Aviv. The rally was a protest to the legation bombing. Twenty-five Israelis were injured in the clash, two of them seriously, before police intervene. The broadcast quoted the So- viet official news agency Tass as saying Russia had rejected IsraM's official condemnation of the bombing and apologies for it. World News Roundup Petitions Petitioning is now open for a vacancy on the Board in Control of Student Publications created by the graduation of Peg Nimz, '53. Petitions may be picked up at. the Student Legislature Bldg., 512 S. State St. Deadline for returning completed forms will be next Wednesday. Any student who is scholas- tically eligible may petition. SL Drops Move Hitting DailySeries By VIRGINIA VOSS Student Legislature decided b a large majority vote last night t withdraw from consideration a motion which expressed disap proval of the recent series of Dail articles on Communist activity ox campus. In asking withdrawal of the resolution, its originator Paula Levin, '55, explained that she had presented the motion partially to hear SL opinion on the mat- ter. Since SL members generally ha opposed a move to censure The Daily although parliamentary red- tape kept the motion from a vote at the previous meeting, Miss Lev- in said she favored removal of the resolution. STATISTICS on cutting fre- quency before and after the newly extended Thanksgiving holiday were also reported at last night's brief meeting. Between 10 and 15 per cent of the campus failed to show up for classes the Wednesday before Thanksgiving and five to nine per cent cut the following Mon- day. Chief early-leavers and late-arrivers were underclassmen according to the report. No records of previous semest- ers' cutting averages were avail- able from the administration, al- though the decision of whether to put the two-year test vacation into permanent effect will reportedly be based on relative cutting fre- quency. In other action last night, SL set all-campus spring elections for March 31 and April 1. The resignation of legislator Lisa Kurcz, '53, was accepted by the group. IFC To Hold RushingMeet To acquaint all those interested in fraternity rushing with the rushing procedures, there will be a mass rushing meeting at 7:30 p.m. today in the Michigan Union.

Harold H. Velde, chair- man of the House Un-American Activities Committee, has an- nounced that he has subpenaed witnesses to testify at public hear- ings scheduled for next week on Communist infiltration of col- leges and universities, the United Press reported yesterday. Velde did not identify the wit- nesses who will appear before the committee Wednesday and Thurs- day, Feb. 18 and 19. The Illinois Republican said his group is co-ordinating its in- quiry of colleges with one launched this week by the Sen- ate internal security subcom- mittee. Velde said that the investiga- tions were not concerned with col- leges and universities as such but rather with Communist Party members who are "engaged in the field of education." Meanwhile, Sen. Willis Smith, (D-N.C.), said that the City of; New York 'should dismiss four municipal college teachers who have refused to tell the Senate subcommittee whether or not they are Communists. CONTROVERSIAL "They're all washed up; The Daily needs some men with a new approach," she- maintained. Any men who do show up will be royally treated at either of the two Tryout meetings which will be held at 4:15 and 7:30p.m. today at the 8audent Publications build- ing.

By BOB MARGOLIN Michigan's hockey team white- washed a slow moving Michigan r State sextet, 4-0, last night at the 'Coliseum before one of the small- est crowds of the season. It was the third victory of the season for the Wolverines over the cellar-dwelling Spartans who have now lost 11 Midwest Hockey League games with only one win. Michigan now boasts a seven won- two lost record in the loop. * * * EXCEPT for a few flaring tem- pers late in the second period the Phi belt 'Surprised' .At lNational By ALICE BOGDONOFF Henry Heil, '53, local Phi Delta Theta president yesterday express- ed surprise at action of the fra- ternity's national headquarters in suspending the Williams College chapter at Williamstown, Mass. for pledging a Jewish student last October. A constitutional clause restricts Phi Delta Theta, membership to white Christians. * -* * HEIL EXPLAINED that at last summer's national convention, a motion was initiated mainly by eastern schools to remove the re- strictive clause. Despite consider- able support, the motion failed to be carried by the necessary two- thirds vote. A spokesman for the Williams Phi Delta Theta chapter pointed out that the fraternity has "some very wonderful Jewish members who were initiated be- fore the clause was inserted in the constitution prior to World War I." The next Phi Delta Theta na- tional convention is in 1954. Heil could make no predictions as to whether the move would be car- ried atthis time. He said that his fraternity had instructed him to vote for the re- moval of the clause and that in the future the local chapter would "go along with anything the In- terfraternity Council proposes to remove the rule." Meanwhile statements of sup- port for the Williams chapter came from the fraternity's chap- ter at Brown University in Prov- idence, R. I. and from other or- ganizations. Under the leadership of Dick Manchee, '54, the IFC Big Ten Counselling and Information Ser- vice plans to offer aid to willing fraternity chapters in removing restrictive clauses. According to Manchee the com- mittee will start contacting fra- ternities within the next few weeks. game aroused little excitement, lacking much of the traditional tenseness and drama of the Mich- igan-Michigan State rivalry. The first Michigan goal came at 15:02 of the first period; while the Wolverines were a man short. George Chin grabbed a loose puck in Spartan territory, skated behind the visitors' nets and neatly snuck a pass to Pat Cooney who drilled the puck between goalie Jack Shackle- ford's skates for the score. After this brief show of action things quieted down again until midway in the second period when Reg Shave caught the goalie off balance after rebounding a Ron Martinson shot. *. * * JIM HAAS made the prettiest play of the night as, he scored the third Wolverine marker after 42 seconds of the final period had gone by.;. Ten minutes later Martinson, playing his first game on the Wolverine first line, took a pass from captain Johnny Matchefts in front of the net and scored on a drive into the corner. Aside from these few scoring SL Wing Calls For Tryouts An organizational meeting of the Student Legislature Adminis- trative Wing will be held at 4 p.m. today at the SL Bldg. for all students interested in-getting ex- perience with committee or cler- ical work on SL.

Judge To Name Execution Date WASHINGTON-(A)-President Eisenhower refused yesterday to spare the lives of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, sentenced to death in the, electric chair for conspiring to slip atomic secrets to Russia. Their crime, he said, "far ex- ceeds that of taking the life of 'another citizen; it involves the deliberate betrayal of the entire nation and could very well result in the death of many thousands of innocent citizens." * * * THE ROSENBERGS, man and wife, are awaiting execution in New York's Sing Sing Prison. They appealed for presiden- tial clemency--the last resort in their long court fight--on the ground that they were innocent. With the appeal, Federal Judge Irving R. Kaufman of New York granted a stay of execution until five, days after the President an- nounced his decision. This does not necessarily mean the couple will die five days hence. The question of a date for their execution will come before Judge Kaufman again Their attorney, Emanuel Bloch, said in New York he would appeal the decision to the U. S. Supreme Court. * .* * EARLIER, the President met with about a dozen administration officials and Republican congres- sional leaders for a discussion on "the general subject of interna- tional trade and reciprocal trade." Other White House develop- ments included: 1. An announcement that Eisen- hower will hold his first news con- ference as President next Tuesday at 10:30 a.m. 2. The President signed a bill extending until 1955 his powers to reorganize executive agencies of the government. The measure con- tinues the same reorganization power .which former President Truman had. 3. Eisenhower met with the Na- tional Security Council. Secretary of State Dulles gave the council a report on his trip to Europe, from which he returned Monday. SAC Accepts, MISS HENDLEMAN . .

IFC Proposal For Rushing The truce between the Inter- Fraternity Council and the Inter- House Council on rushing regula- tions came a step closer to official realization yesterday, as the Stu- dent Affairs Committee provision- ally accepted the IFC recommen- dation. The SAC made one minor change in the proposal submitted by IFC, which must now be ac- cepted by IFC before the settle- ment becomes official. THE HOUSE Presidents Assem- bly Tuesday unanimously passed an addition to the IFC by-law pro- hibiting fraternity men from en- tering the quadrangles during rushing. The added phrasq states: "Any exceptions to this procedure shall be by mutual agreement to the student groups involved." To this, SAC recommended a supplementary provision that "No such agreement may be abrogated during the formal rushing period." The addition was inserted to ensure that there would be no ca- pricious withdrawals 'of either par- + fr.rnn a ia a fnlaamant.
