Faces Hawkeyes

Currently resting on top of the

baseball team will attempt to re-
tain its lofty position when it takes
on the Minnesota Gophers in a
single game today and the Hawk-
eyes of Iowa in a double-header to-
morrow at Ferry Field.
The Wolverine diamondmen will
be gunning for their fourth
straight conference win when they
take the field at 3:30 p.m. today
for the first of the week-end tilts.,

COACH RAY Fisher's decision as
to who will do the hurling for the
home squad will not be definitely
decided until sometime today. Poor
weather this spring has limited
practice to such an extent that
many of the Wolverine pitchers
have not been able to get in the
necessary work to round them into
playing condition.
t Consequently, Fisher's last
minute decision will probably be
based on yesterday's practice ses-
sion and on who will be the Min-
nesota chukker.
Although Fisher had previously
assumed that Paul Giel, Minne-
sota star fast-baller, would be op-
posing his squad, he now has rea-
son to believe that Dick Siebert,
Gopher coach, might save his ace
for the Michigan State tilt tomor-
row.
Taking no chances, however,
Fisher has had his hurlers pitch-
ing during practices this week from
a rubber that was moved up sev-
eral feet. The idea of moving up
the pitching distance in order to
accustom the hitters to Giel's ex-
ceptional speed came to him last
week-end while the Wolverines
were down in Illinois.

the line-up, the Gophers will be

er, and shortstop Gerry Cloutier.

three undefeated five-game win-

Board Approval
Non-Resident Violators Excluded
From Residence Hall Jurisdiction
By BOB JAFFE and ERIC VETTER
The final stamp of approval to a quad judiciary system was given
by the Residence Halls Board of Governors yesterday.
As approved by the Board, the setup empowers house and quad
judiciaries to mete out punishment and discipline to residents, but
does not give them jurisdiction over non-residents who violate
quad rules.

THE SPRING all-campus elections spotlighted the need for clari-
fication on the latter point when house election rules were violated
by a non-resident.
The jurisdictional problem also arose this fall when a fra-
ternity member was accused of using a quad meal ticket to gain
entrance to a study hall restricted to dorm residents.
In regard to infractions committed within residence halls by
non-resident visitors, the plan said "penalties should not be imposed
by the staff or student government agencies of the residence hall in
which the violation occurred, but by some appropriate agency."
Under the approved plan, quad residents may appeal cases decided
by their house judiciary to the quad judiciary and eventually to Joints
Judiciary. Ultimate authority would rest with the Sub-committee
on Discipline.
* * , *
IF CASES "violating general University standards are serious or
special personal or psychiatric factors are involved," as in theft cases,
the Board gave the Quadrangle Director the power to route the case
directly to the Dean of Men or disciplinary authorities on the Univer-
sity level, without formal hearings.E
Another proviso of the committee report requires that cases
of discipline by the administrative staff be appealed to the next
highest staff member. This was included to avoid crossing of
jurisdictional lines.
The report also said that violations of state law, city ordinance
or University-wide standards of conduct that occur outside the
buildings and grounds of the residence halls "must be dealt with,
as they are now, by the police or through the general disciplinary
procedures of the University."
Of RedTies
McCarthy Group
QuizesKaghan
Two University alumni, singled
out by government authorities this
Iweek for Communist affiliations
have emphatically denied charges
against them.
The first, Theodore Kaghan, told
members of Sen. Joseph McCar-
thy's Senate Investigations sub-
committee that a decade of fight-
ing Communism had qualified him
to direct this country's psycholog-
ical warfare in West Germany.
KAGHAN, acting Deputy Direc-
tor of the Public Affairs Division
at the U.S. High Commissioner's
Bonn Headquarters, had been re-
called for questioning regarding
allegedly Communistic plays writ-
ten around 1930, an alleged Com-
munist with whom he shared an
apartment for five years, his sig-
nature on a Communist Party New
York city council candidate peti-
s tion in 1939 and meetings he hadI
attended.
Meanwhile, Walter Gerald Berg-I
man, who was employed here in
the educational psychology depart-
ment between 1925 and 1929, has
been accused by the State Depart-j
ment of being a Communist. Pres-
ently director of research for De-
troit schools, he has been ordered
to answer a lengthy list of ques-
tions regarding his activities.
Bergman has mailed affida-
vits to the superintendent of
Detroit schools stating that he is
a Socialist, but has never been
a member of any other political
group, "including the Republi-
can, Democratic and Commu-
nist parties."
East Quad
To Support
WQfiusbo/ys
A meeting of East Quad busboys
voted unanimously to support the
present West Quad strike for high-
er wages in a closed meeting last
night and indicated that a "slow-
down strike" may be planned for
tomorrow.
After hearing arguments pre-
sented by John Curry, '53NR, lead-
er of the West Quad walkout, and
Leonard A. Schaadt, business man-
ager of the residence halls, 52 of
the East Quad's 131 student work-
ers decided to push for a dollar
an hour wage and to cast ballots
today to decide whether the stu-
dents want to go on strike.
* * *
CURRY reported that a general
meeting of South Quad students
help will be held tonight while
organization of Alice Lloyd Hall
workers is being attempted.
Defending the administration
at last night's meeting, Schaadt
said that since 1939 student
wages have been adjusted to the
room and board rates so that
students have always had to
work about two and one-half
hours a day for their meals.
Curry replied that the present
wages are unfair with respect to
the work that the busboys do andC
to the higher wages given to full
time help replacing the students.'

Remain In Doubt
WASHINGTON-0IP-President
Eisenhower dramatically junked
yesterday what he called the Tru-
man "crazy quilt" defense blue-
print and announced in its stead
a more gradual military-foreign
aid program pointing toward an
8'%2 billion dollar slash in appro-
priations for the next fiscal year.
President Truman had asked
$72,900,000,000 in new appropria-
tions. Under the Eisenhower plan
this would be cut to $64,400,000,-
000.
* * *
EISENHOWER told a news con-
ference he doesn't expect his new
policy, which he described as a
"radical" change, will make pos-
sible a completely balanced bud-
get for the year beginning July 1.
But he declared his administra-
tion is making progress in that
direction-and thus toward cut-
ting taxes-every day.
The President made his an-
nouncement, billed in. advance
as a momentous one, on his
101st day in office, a day on
which he also sent Congress a
plan for reshuffling the Defense
Department in the twin interest
of economy and of strengthen-
ing civilian control.
e Reading from a prepared state-
d ment, Eisenhower blasted in em-
phatic terms the Truman admin-
t istration's striving for maximum
B Western defense strength in 1954
or 1955 on the theory that the
Russians would have the air
y strength by that time to launch
,an attack.
This, the President said sharp-
ly, is "artificial arithmetic"-part
of a "crazy quilt of promises, com-
mitments and contracts" which
has put his administration in a
straitjacket woven from 81 billion
dollars appropriated for military
purposes in the past and still ur-
spent.
Still uncertain was whether
Y the Eisenhower administration
f would signal for a tax reduction
1 this year, as many members of
Congress hope. Speaker Martin
(R-Mass.) said budget cuts so
far outlined are "not enough yet
to assure a tax reduction" but
he has not yet abandoned hope
s for such a reduction this year.
d Eisenhower asserted his pro-
posed 81,? billion dollar reduction
in appropriations would not re-
duce the effective military strength
this country has planned for it-
self and its allies in fiscal 1954.

As hopes for an armistice lull the Korean battlefronts into a
muffled silence, Southeastern Asia has become the scene of an acute,
full-scale war.
The seven-year-old Indo-China struggle assumed increasingly
violent proportions last week when a two-pronged Communist attack,
led by the forces of Ho Chi-Minh, swept through large sectors of the
kingdom of Laos.
* * * *
ACCORDING TO reports issuing forth from the jungle area, thej
Vietminh (Communist) forces have marched virtually unopposed to
within 25 miles of Luang Prabang, the country's capital.
While French garrison troops busily fortify the threatened
area with the hope of checking the advancing Red columns in a
pitched battle before the city, Western diplomats are openly
worried about the significance of the latest Communist offensive.
Aside from the immediate strategic importance of Laos, officials
in Washington are beginning to view Ho's attack as an indication
that the latest Red "peace offensive" is merely a propaganda move.
However, there is the possibility that the Reds will use their new-
est gains in Indo-China as a bargaining point in future peace talks.
