"It is a bald and open defense and expression of imperialism. This new American imperialism is thrusting its greedy and bloody fingers in every corner it can reach." To the crowd who greeted him, Robeson jestingly said he was "astonished not to have received the same kind of welcome" as had been offered on previous visits to Ann Arbor when he was actively pursuing his singing career. HE THEN PROCEEDED to criticize the Democratic candidate for president by saying, "There are no escapes in Stevenson if he doesn't fight for free speech." In reference to President Truman's recent speeches in New York concerning F.E.P.C., Robeson said that the President sounded like the Progressive candidates, but he asked, "why hasn't Truman 'one any- thing about it?" Y Robeson followed Hallinan's line of attack on imperialism by claiming that American troops might soon be sent to South Africa to help the Milan government because of Anaconda copper interests there. Robeson discussed the conditions of workers in this country and, stated, "I was horrified to see the ore miners in the Mesabi range living in broken down shacks." - "My own people are laboring people," he continued, "and the big shots better come on back down." * * * * AT A PRESS conference held just before the rally, Hallinan saidI the first evidence of bigotry on the national tour occurred in the cancellation of the Masonic Temple for their use. In response to questions concerning George F. Kennan's ouster demanded by the Soviet Union and his eventual recall as American ambassador to Russia, Hallinan declared, "The appointment was in- vidious and insulting to the Soviet Union" and did not foster "better relations between the two powers." When asked his opinion of NATO he said that it was aggressive and provocative and was a definite thieat to Russia. "It should never have been organized." Robeson's talk at the rally was spotted with songs and a reading from Shakespeare. He sang "Waterboy" and "The House I Live In" and concluded his address by reciting Othello's speech upon slaying Desdemona. Wold News Roundup -U U'Requests Larger Fund For Building $7,640,000 Increase Asked A $7,640,000 boost for new build- ing construction on the present campus and the new North Cam- pus has been requested by the University in the 1953-54 capital outlays budget. The bulk of the requested appro- priation is designated for three critical sources: expanded library facilities, a new Medical Science Building and the music division of the planned fine arts center at the North Campus. The seven mil- lion dollar request is expected to make a considerable dent in total construction costs for the pro- posed new buildings. ACCORDING to University Vice-president Marvin L. Niehuss, the capital outlay request which is "approximately the same as last administrative Budget Division prior to legislative consideration, is approximately the same as last year's request." Last year, however, State leg- islators cut from the budget re- quests for new buildings, in- cluding library expansion and a new medical center. It okayed some two and a half million for buildings already under con- struction and rehabilitation of campus sore spots. Along with construction funds, the University is asking $2,030,- 000 for building rehabilitation and $260,000 for advance planning on the second phase of a long range University Hospital rehabilitation program. * * * ACCORDING to President Har- lan H. Hatcher, the proposed new constructions are necessary to continue the building program which has been under way since World War II. "The Regents, of- ficers and faculty representatives have given careful consideration to the needs and are making mini- mum requests consistent with sound educational policy," he pointed out. Both the library addition and the new medical building have been periodically requested of the Legislature since 1945, and have consistently been denied. Pushed to the top spot on the capital outlays budget again this year, the library building program is slated for $4,310,000 of the re- quested sum. President Hatcher ex- plained that crowded General Li- brary facilities have created both fire hazards and difficulty in keep- ing books and other publications readily available. UNIVERSITY administrators have come up with a three-way so- lution to the problem. See 'U' REQUESTS, Page 3 League Plans B~ancroft Talk Harding F.

The score was 48-14. WHAT WAS SCHEDULED to be a battle of the offenses didn't materialize before the 45,000 avid onlookers. Michigan so completely dominated play that the Wildcats were never really in the game. Tailback Ted Kress paved the way for the smashing Wolver- ine attack, carrying the pigskin an average of 11.4 yards per try. Kress' efforts were aided by his J* * * i By EUGENE HARTWIG Formal presentation of about 150 Japanese cherry trees, a gift of Tokyo Alumni to the Univer- sity, will be made at 3 p.m. this afternoon by His Excellency, Mr. Eikichi Araki, Japanese Ambassa- WSB Slashes Coal Contract WageBoost By The Associated Press John L. Lewis' soft coal contract suffered an unexpected pay hike slash of 40 cents by the Wage Stabilization Board yesterday. Planning on strong union re- action the government made im- mediate moves to deal with an in- dustrywide strike expected to be- gin Monday. THE FULL $1.90-a-day wage boost asked by the United Mine Workers president after he had negotiated for 375,000 soft coal diggers last month was refused by public members of the board who joined industies' representatives. The Interior Department or- dered coal stockpiles frozen at 12:01 a.m. yesterday at mines under contract with the UMW. Warning that when the contract was signed, Lewis said that any change in the terms would nulli- fy the agreement. Traditionally, his men refuse to work without contract. Charles W. Connor, Defense Solid Fuels Administrator, said his agency will allocate coal to.con- sumers on the basis of need and essential use. Anthracite coal, used as home fuel, was not affected by the order. Negotiations for 75,000 anthracite miners are under way. It was estimated by the Solid Fuels Administration that avail- able supplies will meet the de- mand for most large industrial consumers for 10 weeks. The basic wage is now $18.25 a day and the average work week is three days. Potter To Talk At LocalRally Rep. Charles Potter, senatorial candidate on the State GOP ticket, will speak at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday at a rally for county Republicans in the American Legion Post on dbr to the United States, in a brief ceremony in front of Alumni Memorial Hall. The presentation ceremony. held in connection with the Japanese Art Festival, will climax Mr. Ara- ki's visit to the University which began yesterday morning when he arrived at the Willow Run Airport. INCLUDED yesterday among the ambassador's activities was the de- dication of the new library of the Center for Japanese Studies on the fourth floor of the General Library. According to Prof. Harlow 0. Whittemore, Chairman of the Department of Landscape Ar- chitecture, tentative plans call for the cherry trees to be placed around the reflecting basin on the proposed new North Campus as a separate collection. Allies Expect Red Assaults - SEOUL, Korea, Sunday, Oct. 19 -(M-American and South Kor- ean troops astride key hill objec- tives on the Korean central front after five days of furious fighting braced today for new Chinese Com- munist assaults. Action dwindled last night on Triangle Hill and Sniper Ridge, both north of Kumhwa, but Allied officers expected more Red count- erthrusts on both positions. U. S. Seventh Division troops seized Pike's Peak and broke the last Red hold on Triangle Hill ear- lier yesterday. South Korean Second Division troops battling two miles north- east smashed three Chinese at- tacks and held two-thirds of Snip- er Ridge. AP Correspondent John Fujii at Sniper Ridge said the point held by the South Koreans dominated the northern end of the ridge. He said it may be possible for the ROK (Republic of Korea) troops to control all of the ridge line without actually occupying the northern end. Control of both hills was the objective of an Allied limited of- fensive which opened last Tues- day. Stevenson Group To Contact Voters The actual gift was made by the Tokyo Alumni before the war. At that time a number of the trees were sent to the University and planted in a group in Nichols Ar- boretum. ** * THE REMAINING trees were acquired by the University a year ago when a gift of money from Tokyo Alumni was used to buy the trees from Japanese stock in this country. At present this second group of cherry trees is planted in the University Nursery awaiting the selection of a final location. Commenting on his visit to Ann Arbor to make the presen- tation, the 61 year old ambassa- dor said he was particularly im- pressed by the color and beauty of the campus at this time of the year. Refering to the festival, he went on to say, "Japanese Festivals similar to yours at various places of your country will help promote the understanding of Japanese culture and way of thinking." Union -Opera. Tryoiuts Because of an overflow in the number-of tryouts for the Union Opera, a special tryout session will be held from 3 to 5 p.m. tomorrow in Rm. 3G of the Union for all students who. could not attend last week's ses- sions. Casting for the major roles and chorus will not be started until later this week, so all the parts are still open. TOKYO ALUMNI GIFT: Ambassador to Present Trees I mates, who recovered five of his six fumbles. The Maize and Blue began the vicious onslaught three minutes and forty.seconds after the open- ing kick-off. Don Oldham started the ball rolling by intercepting a Dick Thomas pass on the third play from scrimmage. OLDHAM raced 21 yards to the Northwestern 28. Then fullback Bob Hurley dented the middle for nine yards. After. Hurley picked up a first down on the next play, Tony Branoff smashed to the 12. Two plays later Kress plough- ed over from the three. Rescor- la booted the first of his six points-after-touchdowns to put Michigan out in front, 7-0. Michigan was back knocking on the door seconds later. After Bob Lauter, Purple halfback, had re-' turned the kick-off 16 yards to the 24, the vaunted Chuck Hren, who had a terrible day, fumbled, Wolverine Dave Tihkham recov- ering on the Wildcat 22. WITH TED TOPOR, Kress, and Branoff carrying, Michigan ripped down to the three yard line. The drive stopped short when Kress was dropped for a loss on fourth down, and Northwestern took over on its own seven. The Wildcats moved the ball out of the shadow of its goal- posts to the 28, where Norm Kragseth punted to Lowell,.Per- ry who ran back to the Michi- gan 36. Four plays later the Wolverines were back on the Purple four line, thanks to' two dashes of 33 and 15 yards by Kress. Once again the drive failed as Topor fumbled and Wildcat Ed Denyam recovered on the four. yard line. * * * BUT THE Wolverines were not to be denied. Captain Merritt Green raced in to block an end zone punt and fell on the elusive pigskin for six more Michigan points. Rescorla converted and the score read: Michigan 14, North- western 0. From that point on it was one continual parade of Michigan touchdowns. On the second play after the kick-off Northwestern got off abwobbly pass that was taken in by Wolverine lineback- er Laurie LeClaire on the Wild- cat 31. See WOLVERINE, Page 7 'U' Students Cheer, Gape At G ridders By CRAWFORD YOUNG Daily Managing Editor Special to The Daily EVANSTON-A knot of 1,000 University students gaped, remi- nisced and occasionally cheered yesterday at Dyche Stadium as a white-shirted Michigan team func- tioned with an oldtime precision. There was the inevitable bit of California in the air as a bright sun shone on a veritable panzer division of Wolverine backs who scampered almost at will over the turf. Across the field the North- western rooting section vented its frustrations in flash card stunt that turned visiting . Wolverine Club observers green with envy. Featuring an extensive selection of colors, the flash card section produced not only the standard block M's and N's, but flags, mov- ing rocking chairs and Red Cross blood please. THE MICHIGAN Marching Band started the afternoon off on the good note with a superb pre-game presentation of the St. Louis Blues March dance step routine, which was unveiled to the Ann Arbor audience last week. The halftime show, with a motif of "There's No Business Like Show, Business," won a standing ovation from the Wild- cat fans. With musical carica- tures of Al Jolsen, Eddie Can- tor, Jack Benny, Ted Lewis and James "Schnozzola" Durante. A Northwestern presentation of "Little Purple Riding Hood Meets the Big Bad Wolverine" with flash card accompaniments also aided the ingestion of the halftime hot dogs-but, as might be expected, suffered somewhat from compari- son. ** * ATOP DYCHE Stadium, in the heartland of 100 percent Ameri- canism, were no less than 17 rep- licas of Old Glory, probably a record of some sort. When the Michigan first- string offensive platoon rolled back onto the field with the score 34-0 and no let-up in sight, a lusty round of booes for what apparently were taken for "Pour it on" tactics resounded from the Northwestern stands. Then, at the start of the second half, as the play became rather listless, the referees stepped in, tossed on a series of major penal- ties. Perhaps they hoped to goad the gladiators. Towards the end, a flurry of excitement was caused when an unidentified Northwvestern player somewhat roughly shoved Wolver- ine end Bob Topp out of bounds. Apparently somewhat repent- ent, the Wildcat offered a help- ful hand but Topp obviously up- set by the affair, threw a gen- tle left hook at his purple clad protagonist. The referees put a quick quietus Progress"ive Speaks By the Associated Press A retiring president and a form- er president struck blows for their "n in " h r i ira c n ci_ I parties in the quickening presi dential campaign yesterday. Herbert Hoover charged in a nationwide TV and radio broad- cast from New York that the Dem- ocratic New Deal fostered the growth of the American Commun- ist party. He returned briefly to the political wars to'present a de- tailed defense of the Republican record. who say the Korean campaign -is unnecessary. Eisenhower rested in New York, preparing to start Mon- day an invasion of New Eng- land. Republican Senator Wayne Morse of Oregon climaxed his growing coolness toward Eisen- hower by announcing in Washing- ton he would vote for Stevenson. Morse said the General had made "unconscionable compromises with _ ,Y _ c-.:: ? ..-.....:. ..-
