t, sIX THE MICHIGAN DAILY WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 1952 ____I .ull Settles Vigilantes in the Night -The Long Watch Over Korea Battle Front Calm May Stop 'At Any Moment' SEOUL, Wednesday, Nov. 5-(R) 4--An uneasy calm settled over the frost-nipped Korean Central and Eastern Fronts Tuesday. An Eighth Army headquarters spokesman reported the Sniper Ridge and Triangle Hill sector was the quietest since the Allies launched their limited offensive 23 days ago. * s DESPITE THE lull, renewed fighting could erupt at any mo- ment, front dispatches cautioned. Associated Press Correspond- ent John Randolph on the Cen- tral Front said artillery fire by both Allied and Commun- ist sides dropped off sharply after daylight Tuesday and -:there was no ground contact. The last fighting of consequence came early Tuesday when Allied defenders hurled back 300 Chinese Communists assaulting Sniper Ridge in the center and a battalion of North Koreans who attacked Heartbreak Ridge in the east. s * . BOTH RANDOLPH and Corres- pondent William C. Barnard on the Western Front reported in- creased interest in the last two days in the presidential contest aut "home. Chilled GIs from seven Amer- ican divisions and their sup- porting forces back of the front lines huddled around portable radios in bunkers and at head- quarters sets. A stream of ee- tion bulletins, beamed by the armed forces radio, was trans- mitted as soon as they became available. Interest in the election was sharpened by the prominence of the Korean War as an issue in the closing days of the campaign The lull of the fighting front also extended to the air war over Northwest Korea. Sabre Jets, pa- trolling MIG Alley near the Man- churian border reported no con- tact with the Red Air Force. jets Intercept Soviet Plane 'TOKYO-(MP-Two U.S. Thun- derets patrolling Northern Japan intercepted a fighter with Soviet markings yesterday and escorted it eastward to toe Russian boun- dary, Far East Air Forces head- quarters announced. No shots were exchanged. The incident took place over the Nemuro Peninsula of Eastern Hok- kaido Island where an American B-29 with eight persons aboard was believed shot down by Rus- sian fighters Oct. 7. Early Ike Lead Cracks 'SolidSouth' (Continued from Page 1) Capturing an almost instantan- eous lead last night Gen. Eisen- hower rode on to greater and greater vote margins as the whole GOP ticket throughout the coun- try turned up surprising Republi- can strength. Long before midnight it became apparent that the GOP were go- ing to break the solid South for the first time since 1928 as first returns showed commanding Eis- enhower leads in Virginia and Florida. TEXAS, South Carolina and Tennessee also swung over to the Republican column initially al- though South Carolina eventually went Democratic. Then came the New England sweep with Rhode Island going GOP for the first time since 1928 and doubtful Connecticut landsliding to Ike by, huge mar- gins. One after another the big city states, classified in the "doubtful" group for most of the election, were conceded to the Republicans or developed strong GOP leads. * * * THIS WAS the straw that broke the Democratic back, for Steven- son's greatest hope had been to gain huge city margins in these states to offset traditionally Re- publican rural areas. Added to the victories in New York, Michigan, Illinois, Califor- nia and the others was an Eisen- hower landslide in' Arizona and Oklahoma, states which had al- ways gone down the line for Demo- crats. And it was clear that the GOP swing might include victory in boh houses of Congress-an even- tually that almost no one was willing to predict prior to the great Eisenhower triumph. (o SbortSAoM.

Republicans Capture All Local Posts (Continued from Page 1) Although final figures were not in when The Daily went to press early this morning, it looked like a clean sweep for county candi- dates on the GOP ticket. Prosecuting attorney Edmond F. DeVine piled up an early lead over his Democratic opponent, Louis C. Andrews, jr. Sheriff John L. Osborn was returned to office as were County Clerk Lu- ella M. Smith and Coroner Ed- win C. Ganzhorn. Mrs. Smith was not opposed. Other GOP candidates placed in office were Register of. Deeds Thomas A. Fitzgerald and Drain Commissioner Murray J. Knowles, jr. County Treasurer 'William F. Verner was also elected. ** * AT THE American Legion Hall, where most of the Republican can- didates and supporters were gath- ered for the all-night stand, in- cumbent Rep. George Meader could foreseehvictory by 1 a.m. today. At that time, the vote stood 30,831 as compared with 17,358 for his Demicratic opponent, Prof. John Dawson of the law school. Commenting on the election results shortly after Gov. Adlai Stevenson conceded, Rep. Mead- er said, "I think this has been a milestone in American pro- gress. The Republican party now has a terrific responsibility and challenge ahead of it. "I believe," he continued, "that the end result will be to the ad- vantage of the American people and the American system of gov- ernment."

Based largely on early returns from the South, Democrats chalked up 165 seats in the House while Republicans were climbing ahead of last night's reports with 127 seats to their credit. Democrats won their House seats in Arkansas, Alabama, Geor- gia, Louisiana, South Carolina and Texas. A clean sweep for the par- ty was recorded in RhodeIsland. Gubernatorial election results also trickled in gradually with most of the nation's 29 governor's posts at stake in the electipn still in doubt as of this morning. Prior to yesterday's election, the strength of the two major par- ties in the state capitals was about equally divided-there were 25 Re- publican governors in office and 23 Democrats. Fifteen Democratic and 14 Republican governorships were at stake in the elections. In one of the few out-state gu- bernatorial reports compiled, in- cumbent Ohio Democrat Frank J. Lausche led Republican Charles P. Taft by a 380,827 to 311,711 vote with more than 2,000 polling places out of 10,877 recorded. r f - k't ____SEE SAM____ 4.
