Ticket Sales For Concert On Upswing Ticket sales for the local ap- pearance of the Berlin Philhar- monic March 15, have been on the 'upswing in the last few days. a University Musical Society mem- ber said. The Society, which sponsors the concert, has a sold-out house, ex- cept for "seats behind poles and a few on the side." Local Protest In recent days, the issue of Nazism in the orchestra, regarding its conductor Herbert von Kara- jan, its manager Gerhart von Wes- terman and several members had received local protest by the Stu- dent Zionist Organization and the Labor Youth League. "These protests have helped sales," the Society source said. "But, we have been selling seats for the Berlin Orchestra, as well as other Choral Union concerts, since last spring." "The demand for seats has sold the house out and we will have to sell standing room," the Society member added. Von Karajan Elected Von Karajan was unanimously elected Thursday as the perma- nent director of the Orchestra. The announcement was made in Pittsburgh, where the group was performing. Any new conductor or new member must get approval by the majority of the present orchestra personnel. Earlier, von Karajan was approved by the Berlin city council. The Jewish Community Council of Detroit has made a protest with the United States State Depart- ment against the appearance of von Karajan as conductor of the Philharmonic in Detroit, March 17.

Y. ()- The UN Security Council yester- day strongly urged Israel and Egypt to maintain calm and re- frain from more fighting along their tension-filled border. The Council's f e e l i n g was summed up by its president, Selim Sarper, Turkish delegate, at the end of a 90-minute meeting dur- ing which several members de- nounced the Gaza incident of last Monday night. James J. Wads- worth, U n i t e d, States delegate, called it "shocking" and "indefen- sible from any standpoint." "Debate Delayed The delegates held up further debate on the Gaza case until Maj. Gen. Edson L. M. Burns, UN truce' chief in Palestine, can rush to UN headquarters to make a per- sonal report, or, if he is held in Palestine by grave events, a full report can be received here. It was apparent despite the dip- lomatic talk that the members were shocked by the Gaza fighting which cost 39 Egyptian and 8 Is- raeli lives. While they did not say so specifically, the attitude of most of the delegates showed that, on the basis of preliminary re- ports, they held Israel respon- sible. Wadsworth Improvement The keynote was sounded by Wadsworth who said that for al- most a year a general improve- ment in the maintenance of stab- ility and quiet on the borders be- tween Israel and the Arab states had prevailed. Sir Pierson Dixon, Britain, said this was the most serious incident since the armistice was signed be- tween Egypt and Israel in 1949. He said the incident was all the more deplorable since the situa- tion on the border line had not deteriorated in the last year or so. He said the evidence points to a premeditated attack by Israeli forces on Egyptians. The Council meeting was re- quested by Egypt after the Gaza incident. Free Milk WASHINGTON (P) - House members will drink free milk for the next two weeks. Rep. M. R. Laird, Republican from the dairy state of Wiscon- son, announced yesterday that milk-dispensing machines will be unveiled Monday in the Re- publicanand Democrattcloak- rooms. The members can take their choice-plain milk, choc- olate milk or buttermilk. Laird said he arranged for the machines in cooperation with the National Milk Produc- ers Federation. It's an attempt to help end dairy surpluses. "We will take care of the milk supply for the first two weeks," Laird said. "After that, we will take the plugs out of the slots and the members will have to pay."

Not as lucky all evening, McManus allowed the Michigan ace to garner a hat trick. Nationalists May Leave Matsu Isles TAIPEI, Formosa 0") - ThereI was speculation in press circles to- day that the Nationalists might be abandoning some or all of the Matsus, island outposts extending within 31/2 miles of the Red China mainland off the port of Foochow. The speculation was entirely un- official and, of course, without! public confirmation. Security con- siderations presumably would pre- clude public disclosure even if such were true. The speculation was stirred by reports yesterday of a Red gun- boat attack on Kaoteng, an island in the group so close to the main- land that it could almost be blown out of the water by Red land guns if they chose. Attention was further focused on the Matsus, and the offshore island situation as a whole, by a high level conference of United States and Nationalist defense of- ficials in Taipei. The Nationalists claimed they repelled an attack of Kaotegn yesterday by 40 Red gunboats and motorized junks - vessels which very well could have been a supply envoy bound for Foochow which got off course in foggy weather. If the Nationalists do quit the Matsus, it would not be too sur- prising. The Nationalist press has been full of assertions that neither the Matsus nor Quemoy, guarding the approaches to Amoy, would be abandoned without a fight. This might be true of the esti- mated 40,000-man garrison on Quemoy. But insofar as the es- timated 5,000-man garrison in the1 Matsus is concerned, the asser- tions are strongly reminiscent of1 those which preceded the pullout frd0n Nanchishan and the Tach- ens., These pullouts were made 120 to 200 miles north of the Matsus.. Wolverine Hockey Team Trounces Huskies, 5-1 By DAVE RORABACHER With Captain Bill MacFarland scoring his sixth hat trick of the year, Michigan overcame the outclassed Michigan Tech hockey squad; 5-1, at the Coliseum last evening. Goold Opens Scoring Jay Goold opened the scoring at 3:47 of the first period as he swung around from behind the Tech net and shoved the puck into the far corner of the goal with goalie Bob McManus out of posi- tion. Twenty five seconds later Wolverine Neil Buchanan knocked the puck in again to bring the O-- crowd roaring to its feet. How-. ever the score was disallowed asF it was ruled that the whistle had L va low s blown just previous to the puck's entrance into the netting. 11 Play see-sawed back and forth jfl until Mike Buchanan obtained 1 OSU Leads M' Swimmers; Wardrop Sets World Mark Wolverines Trail Buckeyes 58-57; Walters Wins Diving; Jones Establishes Record By DON LINDMAN Special to The Daily COLUMBUS - The Swamies of Swimming are at it again, and no one in this sports crazy city is willing to venture a guess as to just what they will pull out of their bag of tricks next. 'M' Trails By One Point Combining the foresight of a fortune teller, with the manipulation skill of a juggler, Coaches Gus Stager and Bruce Harlan have man- aged to keep their Michigan tank squad within one point of Ohio State, the defending champion, in the Big Ten swimming championships yesterday. The Wolverines, second to OSU by a 58-57 score, pulled some real surprises in startling a disappoint- ingly small crowd in the Ohio nat- atorium last night.nPontecorvo Jack Wardrop, one half of ii Michigan's twin terrors, lowered-f his own world record in the 220-- D enies W ork yard freestyle event, covering theditcithpemnKm distance in the phenomenal time of 2:03.4, bettering the record that O n , he set the previous week, by five tenths of a second, Woolsey Drops Out The race was to have been a MOSCOW )-Prof. Bruno Pon- three-man affair between War- tecorvo told the world yesterday drop, Ohio State's Ford Konno, he is now a devoted Soviet citizen and Indiana's Bill Woolsey.

Rather than hold up the contest while the pegging was re- paired the first period was split off at this point with the players retiring to the dressing rooms and the ice being resurfaced. The remaining bit of the first period was tacked onto the begin- ning of the second giving the peculiar sensation of a football game between quarters s the teams changed sides after only three minutes of play.

Stock Official Says Advice Upset Market Senate Demands Curbs on' Stock Market Tipsters WASHINGTON MP)-A demand for curbs on stock market tip- sters arose yesterday after the Senate Banking Committee heard that one tip by Walter Winchell cost buyers more than two mil- lion dollars in about an hour, President Edward T. McCor- mick of the American Stock Ex- change, testified that on anothei occasion a televised tip by Win- chell threw the market into tur- moil. After the commentator's TV program on Jan. 9, McCormick said, an avalanche of orders des-' cended on the exchange for stock in Pantepec Oil Co., a Venezuelan firm. $8 Loss Per Share McCormick said that except for special measures taken by the ex- change, those who bought on the Winchell tip and held on to the stock would now be in the hole by $8 a share. The committee had hardly opened the second day of its "friendly" study .of stock markets before Sen. Prescott Bush (R- Conn.) was calling for steps to "put an end to this irresponsible business of giving out market tips.", Sen. William Fulbright (D- Ark.), committee chairman, de- scribed the tips and the market fluctuations they caused in some cases as "a very serious matter." 'Big Headache' "This is one of the biggest head- aches I have ever had," agreed .VlcCormick. However, he said the big problem was how to draw a line on market information. He pointed out that nearly all news- papers supply financial news. He said that Winchell gave mar- ket tips almost weekly, and added that he didn't know of any in- stance where Winchell had mis- stated facts. He declared Winchell had said that substantially the same information he gave about Pantepec Oil had been carried in newspapers.

NEW ROLES TO 'LOUSE UP': 'Satirist Satirizes on Career *N By DAVID KAPLAN "I write little things down to entertain myself, and that's how I started this whole business," comedienne Anna Russell said yes- terday. Miss Russell appeared in two performances of her one-woman show of musical satires at Hill Auditorium yesterday. What Next? "Now I'm thinking about what to do next. Verdi set some of Shakespeare's plays to music and I wonder why he didn't use 'Ham- let'. It makes a perfect libretto and I'm toying with the idea." "I'm also thinking of what other roles in opera I ca louse up," Miss Russell added. At present, Miss Russell is work- ing on a song of the Victorian period, which she describes as written "to make people feel as against the average vocalist any- way. And I'm the joy of vocal coaches," Miss Russell addea, Miss Russell feels that her best audiences are the more musical ones. "Take the Service Club lad- ies. They don't know what's go- ing on. I just love college aud- iences. I get great fun out of performing for them because they are so immersed in learning this nonsense." Miss Russell has appeared at a numerous universities throughout the country and is planning a series of pop concerts with con- ductor David Rose.

First, however, the Interfraternity Council House Presidents As- sembly must approve the plan. Trial will be given during April and May with two goods pur- chased under the scheme each month. Only canned orange juice and canned corn will be purchased cooperatively next month. Under the full-scale plan, Interfraternity Council fraternity serv- ices committee chairman Keith- - Coats, '56E, said yesterday, mem- ber fraternities would buy their entire stock of 40 to 50 canned goods listed in binding contracts the fraternities will sign. Meats, Furniture May Be Included According to Coats, as the plan amount equal to the cost of the month's purchases. If the cost of the month's pur- chases exceeds the original depos- it, the fraternity will pay the cost of the purchases plus the addi- tional sum. After this, the depos- it Avllh ant a+ the Pv1+o th
