By Rosenbergs 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. > Federal Judge Irving R. Kauf- Detroit Area *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. Wildcat Five Turns Back Wolverines 'M' Loses, 84-57 Remains in Cellar 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. See EADDY, Page 3 Hatcher Talk President Harlan H. Hatcher will give a talk on the state of the University before a general faculty meeting at 4:15 p.m. tomorrow in Rackham Lecture Hall.

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.

Philpott, who had to be helped off the ice in the first per- iod, had little trouble in netting tb e puck on a short shot.' 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. s . 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. Unlike the tired, trip weary squad that took the ice less than three hours after the long train ride from Montreal Friday night, the Carabin sextet of last night See VISITING, Page 3 rain and heavy snow.

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.
