The Bureau.of Federal Credit Unions in the Department of Health,
Education and Welfare seized the credit union's office in suburban
Dearborn'at the close of business yesterday.
But bureau director J. Deane Gannon said in Washington yes-

Union Beer
Considered
X Since '30s
By TAMMY MORRISON
Should or shouldn't the Union
be allowed to sell beer?
This is not the first time that
serious consideration has been giv-
en to the ,proposal.
In the 30's, the Regents gave
their support to an investigation
of the problem, but legal difficul-
ties prevented any action from be-
ing taken.
Study Authorized in 1950
Dean of Students Erich A. Wal-
ter authorized another study of
the situation in 1950. At that time,
E. Blythe Stason, Dean of the Law
School, was asked for his opinion,)
not only from a legal standpoint,
but also because of his experience
on the Committee on Student Con-
duct and his familiarity with Uni-
versity regulations.
His memorandum on the sub-
ject, dated March 31, 1950, stated
three reasons for the difficulties
involved in selling beer in the Un-
ion.
First, the University could not
sell intoxicating beverages to mi-
aors without running up against
she state law which forbids it.
Ihis would necessitate a careful
screening of all students in the
Union taproom.
Line of Demarcation
Second, the University couldn't
naintain any establishment which
sold alcholic liquor by the glass
ast of Division Street, according
,o City Ordinance 123.1.
Third, the University could not
knowingly participate in the per-
itting of alcoholic beverages in
'he living accommodations under
its jurisdiction, such as residence
aalls, the League, and the Union.
rhis is because of the state law
forbidding liquor on state-owned
. property.
For these three reasons, the
matter was dropped.
More Complications Outlined
Dean of Men Walter B. Rea yes-
5 terday outlined other complica-
tions to the situation. He com-
mented that if there were any tap-
room arrangements in the Union,
the strict screening of students
necessary would place heavy re-
sponsibility upon the shoulders of
the Union management.
The law forbidding the presence
of minors in a place where liquor
is sold would mean that under-
age students couldn't remain even
if drinking coffee. He mentioned
that perhaps arrangements could
be made for a special section of
the rathskellar to be open to
x minors, or that they might be
permitted to enter during meal
hours.
Another University official has
said that the move would be un-
wise in terms of public relations.
He said that to petition for exemp-
tion from the 'ordinance might
alienate restaurant owners who
were denied this privilege.
Hatcher Needed Special
Permission
An unconfirmed report has it
that because of the law against
the presence of intoxicating bev-
erages on state-owned property,
Harlan H. Hatcher, President of
the University had to obtain spec-
ial permission to serve liquor in
his home.

#Hannah Criticized
In the debate over names State
Rep. Joseph G. O'Conner (-D-Det.)
has accused Michigan State Col-]
lege President John A. Hannah of
not fighting "for his convictions."
Rep. O'Conner, a member of the'
House Educational Institutions
Committee, criticized President
Hannah of "sitting in an ivoryI
tower while students do all the
dirty work in seeking to change
Michigan State College's name."
He contrasted President Han-
nah's actions with those of Uni-
versity President Harlan A. Hat-
cher. O'Conner said President,
Hatcher wrote letters to the Leg-
islature last year concerning the
University's stand. President Han-
nah isn't doing anything about it,
he said.
No Comment from Hannah
The MSC President has declin-
ed to comment on Rep. O'Conner's
remarks until March 17. On that
date the University Regents and
the State Board of Agriculture,
MSC's governing body, will meet
in Lansing.
In a speech to MSC alumni in
Detroit, President Hannah said the
college wants recognition as a uni-
versity because "that is what we
are and what we have been for;
25 years."
"Our foreign students have
trouble because in their countries
the word college often means high
school," he said. He also attribut-
ed MSC's difficulties in recruiting
faculty members to the college
designation.I
President Hannah said that ed-
ucational accrediting agencies are
reluctant to endorse professional
training at MSC for the same rea-
son.
Outlining his terms, the col-
lege president said "Any solution,
to be acceptable to State, must re-
tain the Michigan and State desig-
nation."

GRAND STAND SEATS ON THE RAILROAD CROSSING OFFERED A GOOD VIEW OF THE
FINISH LINE
A TO Raicer Wins Derby
By GAIL GOLDSTEIN
Four wheels, a board and a driv-
er streaked across the finish line
in 21.56 seconds to win the Wol-
verun Derby yesterday.
Alpha Tau Omega's simple en-
try nosed out more elaborate cars]
to win the trophy for the fastestj
time of the twenty-four racers.
Crowds jammed the curbs on E.
Washington and watched the rac-
ers run their course down the hill.
As the afternoon wore on many of
the spectators left leaving the
faithful to cheer their favorite en-
tries on.
Before the Derby, a parade madeI
its noisy way from the diag to the
site of the race. Led by the Fiji
marching band, dressed in color-
ful costumes, the parade consisted
of the cars entering the race,
sponsor houses and the Taylor
House band.
As the parade progressed from
the diag, the cars were judged for
their originality in representing

New Attacks
Dulles' Strategy
Held in Reserve
WASHINGTON UP)-The United
States military high command has
drafted plans for use in case Pres-
ident Dwight D. Eisenhower con-
siders it necessary to fight for
Quemoy or the Matsu.
It is understood that a guiding
principle behind the plans is this:
If the Chinese Reds launch an
attack of a kind which prompts
the President to act, the initial
American power, inflicting more
damage on an enemy force than
the enemy had caused, would dis-
courage the Reds from pressing
;the issue.
Dulles Strategy in Reserye
In reserve, however, is the three
front strategic concept which See-
retary of State John Foster Dulles
advanced in a recent speech and
in talks with this country's allies
In Southeast Asia.
The idea of this would be t
confront the Red Chinese with a
chain of opposition in the Korean,
Formosan and Indochinese sectors
l simultaneously, if they seem com
witted to open aggression in auy-
place.
The United States is publicly
committed to help Chiang Kal-
shek's Chinese Nationalists defend
Formosa, the Pescadores and "re-
lated positions." Whether those r4-
lated positions would include the
offshore islands of Quemoy and
Matsu has been left uncertain.
No Decision Yet
Officials said today no decision,
would be made by President Eisen-
hower on that question until the
Reds make a specific challenge.
Some hope remains here that the
Reds will not force the issue, that
despite their belligerent talk, they
will gradually let the Formosa sit-
uation settle down.
