Filing of Appeal by Convicted Atom
Spies Achieves Stay of Execution
WASHINGTON-(P)-Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, the convicted
atom spies, appealed to President Truman yesterday to spare their
lives.
They have been sentenced to die in the electric chair at New York's
Sing Sing Prison Wednesday for conspiring to give atom secrets to
Russia.
A REPRESENTATIVE of defense counsel filed the plea for presi-
dential clenency at the Justice Department at 9:30 yesterday morning.

*May Draw
Atomic Plant
DETROIT - (P) - Construction
of an atomic power plant in the
Detroit area may be started with-
in a year if the Atomic Energy
Commission gives its approval.
It would be a pilot plant to teat
theories worked out by nuclear en-
gineers.
This was disclosed yesterday by
a spokesman for the Detroit Edi-
son Co. in a progress report on an
atomic plant project.
* * *
A FORCE OF 20 Edison nuclear
engineers has completed the first
studies of atomic energy and is
now engaged in a "reference de-
sign project aimed at solving the
technical problems of an actual
power plant.
Arthur S. Griswold, assistant
to Edison's president, Walker L.
Cisler, said that project .should
be completed by the end of the
year. The Commission then will
be asked for permission to build
the first plant.
The plant would feed electricity
into normal power lines. 'Its fuel
would be raw uranium-measured
in pounds instead of the thous-
ands of tons of coal now needed
for the same power output. Its
cost probably would be "competi-
tive" with that of power from the
common fuels of coal, oil or gas.
The Atomic Energy Commission
has authorized Edison, with Dow
Chemical Corp., Midland, Mich.,
to do research work toward pri-
vate power plants. It has given
the same permission to four other
pairs of companies.
Rescuers Hunt
Ship Survivors
PUSAN, Korea---()-More than
30 rescue craft combed the rough
waters outside this big port yes-
terday in search of survivors from
tl-e ill-fated Korean ship Chang
Yung Ho but they found only five
bodies of passengers.
There were 244 others still miss-
ing and feared dead.
POPULAR COMPOSER:
man of New York had given
them until yesterday to file the
petition. He said its filing would
automatically mean a' stay of
execution until five days after
the President announces his de-
cision on the clemency appeal.
The Rosenbergs, husband and
wife, have lost all their court ap-
peals and the appeal to the Pres-
ident was their last resort.
* * *
A JUSTICE Department official
said the appeal goes now to the
department's pardon attorneys
who will review the whole case.
They will make their recommenda-
tion to Attorney General McGran-
ery and he in turn will give his to
the President.
Rosenberg, 34, and his wife
Ethel, 36, were convicted March
29, '1951, of conspiring to turn
America's atom bomb secrets ov-
er to Russia.
The Rosenbergs have main-
tained they are innocent.
The argument used unsuccess-
fully by the defense in court ap-
peals had three main points:
(1) That the pre-trial publicity
was prejudical to the accused, (2)
that the government used "per-
jured" testimony and (3) that the
information the Rosenbergs alleg-
edly passed to the Russians was
"public knowledge and not secret."
If President Truman does not
act before he goes out of office
Jan, 20 the life-or-death question
for the Rosenbergs will be up to
President-Elect Eisenhower and
his attorney general, Herbert
Brownell.
MacA rthur
Hits Truman
NEW YORK-(P)-Gen. Doug-
las MacArthur last night heatedly
blamed any excessive American
military desertions on what he
called President Truman's "poli-
cies of appeasement."
It was a new peak in the feud
between the Chief Executive and
the man he fired as Far Eastern
commander of United Nations
forces fighting in Korea. .,
MacArthur used the most biting
language he has yet applied in
answering Truman's charge that
the General, whom he called "in-
subordinate," helped increase de-
sertions that lately have run to
47,000.

Special To The Daily
EVANSTON -Michigan's bas-
ketball squad sank deeper into the
Big Ten cellar last night when it
was handed its fourth straight
loss, an 84-57 thumping by North-
western at the new McCaw Me-
morial Stadium.
The Wildcats. went wild in the
final quarter netting 17 markers
while the Wolverines were blank-
ed to cinch their victory.

LED BY Captain Larry Dele-
field, and second-string center Hal
Grant, who scored 21 and 19 points
points respectively, the Wildcats
grabbed the advantage, 5-4, early
in the first period on a basket by
Don Blaha and continued to widen
the margin through the remainder
of the game.
Dellefield had played the role
of spoiler before against the
Wolverines, notching 17 and 18
points in two contests with them
last year.
Surprisingly enough Northwest-
ern's big threat Frank Petrancek
went scoreless until the middle of
the second period when he was
replaced by Grant.
The Wildcats held a 26-23 edge
at the time, and it was Grant,1
coming into his own, who sparked
them as they pulled away from
Michigan.
KEEPING within an approxi-
mate ten point margin for three
quarters, Michigan was behind
38-26 at the half and, in the only
quarter which it outscored North-
western, it moved to a 60-50 defi-
cit.
Don Eaddy dropped in a lay-
up to start the final session,
making it 60-52 and Frank Eh.
mann came back with a marker
off the fast break. Bob Topp,
coming i for the first time, was
fouled and made good on the
free throw. The score was 62-53.
It was at this point that the!
Wildcats caught fire. With their
fast break working and Grant's
hook shots snapping the nets, they
piled up 17 straight points to take
a commanding 79-53 lead and put
the game on ice.
Grand and sophomore Jim Bra-
giel each contributed three field
goals as spearheads of the rally.
WITH THREE minutes remain-
ing in the game John Codwell
threw in a basket to break North-!
western's streak. Codwell counted
sixc points in the final minutes as
the Wolverines played even with
Wildcat second-stringers who al-1
so sank three field goals.
Hitting on his set shots Don
Eaddy chalked up 17 points to
pace Michigan scorers but did
not equal the totals of Delle-
field, Grant or Larry Kurka, who
scored 18.
Nine of Eaddy's markers came
in the third period during which
Northwestern was outscored 24-22.

By BOB MARGOLIN
An aroused Montreal hockey
team, still smarting from a 13-2
defeat at the hands of Michigan
the night before, upset the favored
Wolverines, 2-1, last night before
a full house at the Coliseum.
- The Maize and Blue, possibly
expecting another easy victory,
knew they werb in for a rough
night before many minutes were
gone. Two Wolverine offsensive
thrusts in the first three minutes
of the game were broken up by
the Montreal defense, which play-
ed superior hockey the whole night.
FOR THE REST of the period

outpass and outdefend the Wolver-

The Wolverines took heart from
Philpott's goal and poured it on
for the rest of the game, but as
game as the Michigan offense
was, the Montreal defense was
gamer. Three times the Carabins
found themselves a man short and
three times they held fast.

WITH LESS than a minute to
go, Coach Vic Heyliger yanked
Ikola in favor of another forward,
but the Carabin defense refused to
budge.
Goalie Cyrill Guevremint
kicked out 17 shots in the final
session alone a the losers threw
everything but the kitchen sink
at hin. On more than one occa-
sion, a Michigan icer lost the
range with an open goal in front
of him.
The story was the same for the
Wolverines in the second period.
For a few seconds they even had
a two man advantage on their
Canadian opponents, but a stub-
born defense wouldn't give way.
Throughout the game, everytime
the Wolverines controlled the puck
on a fast break, a Montreal de-
fender was able to get his stick in
the way just enough to bust up or
delay the play.
JEAN VERNIER, Carabin de-
fenseman, was especially brilliant
in stopping Wolverine rushes with
a one man advantage.
Early in the first period he
gave a hint of things to come by
single handedly breaking up a
quick surge by Pat Cooney and
Jim Haas that looked like a sure
scoring threat.

Locally officials at the Wil-

ported no such severe storms in
store for Ann Arbor and the
lower Michigan area generally.
The worst to be expected are
temperatures varying in the,
twenties today, tomorrow and pos-
sibly Tuesday with only occasion-
al light snow flurries.'
THE STORMS-centered in thej
Northeast, Southeast and North
Pacific coast states-dumped up
to three inches of ice on some"
transcontinental highways and
cut off power in about 100,000'
homes.
Twenty-two persons died In
New England, where up to 20+
inches of snow fell. Seven died in
New Jersey, three in upstate
New York.
And even as workmen labored to
restore power to almost 100,000
homes, word came that the end+
was not in sight. More heavy snow
and freezing rain was forecast.
Almost 50,000 homes were with-'
out power in ice-coated New Jer-
sey, and 15,000 telephones were
cut off.
Some 17,000 homes were without
power in Westchester County,
N.Y., just north of New York City.

scale investments, including pos-
sibly loans from the United States,
to boost steel and coal production
20 per cent by 1958 and 35 per
cent in ten years.

the procedures provided by the
order, and its representatives
would like to work out the details
of the necessary arrangement with
your designees at the earliest con-
venience. In the meantime, my
government requests that appoint-
ment action be withheld on all
pending appointments of United
