GOP 'Splits'
On Feikens
State Republican 'arty leaders
and legislators are voicing opposi-
tion to the retention of John Fei-
kens as chairman of the GOP
State Central Committee.
Florence Crane, chairman of
Ann Arbor's city Republican Com-
mittee, said that a petition was
circulated recently by a member
of the State Legislature expressing
opposition to Feikens' chairman-
ship of the State Central Con-
nMittee.
"Local people are split on the
issue," Mrs. Crane commented.
"My impression of the issue is the
existence of a split between the
pro-Eisenhower group of which
Feikens is a member, and oth-1
ers," she explained, adding thatc
the most likely reason was be-N
cause the GOP lost the election.

remaining to play by center Hiles
Stout gave hard pressed Illinois
an 81-80 victory over the Univer-
sity of Michigan before 7,200 fren-
zied fans at Yost Field House last
night.
The defeat was the Maize and
Blue's third straight in Big Ten
play. The Wolverines now possess
a 2-4 record in Western Confer-
ence action and an overall mark
of eight wins and six losses.

Atom Smasher Planned
By Midwest Physicists
By GAIL GOLDSTEIN
A 23-million-dollar atom smasher is being designed by physicists
representing a newly-formed organization of eight Midwestern uni-
versities.
Members of the design committee of the Midwestern Universities
Research Association have introduced a design for a giant proton ac-
celerator four times as powerful as any in existence to be built some-
where in the Midwest.
Meeting here each week, MURA scientists believe that with this ac-
celerator they may regain a prom-
inent place in the new and impor-
tant field of high-energy physics.

Illini Hit 46 Per Cent
As a team, Illinois was success-
ful on 32 of 69, a phenomenal 46
per cent.
Michigans Ron Kramer, with 27
tallies, was the outstanding play-
er in one of the most exciting
games to be played at the field
house in the last few years. The
bulky 6'3" center was not only the
high scorer in the contest, but
made 47 per cent of his field at-

Plans for a proposed Medical
Science and School of Nursing
Building were approved by the
Board of Regents at their last
meeting on Jan. 21.
The Regents also authorized
presentation of the proposal to the
State Legislature for financing.
Regent action covered one unit of
two in long-range plans for new
medical buildings.
Vice-President Wilbur K. Pier-
pont, in charge of business and
finance, told the Regents the first
unit would cost an estimated
$7,000,000.
