SORORITIES CAN FIND GAINS IN FBA PLAN (See Page 4) C I 4r Latest Deadline in the State :4ai11 ii CLOUDY, SHOWERS VOL. LXVI, No. 19 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, SUNDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1955 SIX P s S 4- I Internal Revenue Head Will Retire Andrews to Leave Administration; Will Return to Private Business RICHMOND, Va. ()')-T. Coleman Andrews, the Virginian Demo- crat who took over as Commissioner of Internal Revenue in 1953, said yesterday he is leaving the Eisenhower administration at the end of the month. The 56-year-old Richmonder thus confirmed the widespread rumors that his resignation was in the works. Andrews went to Washington when the Internal Revenue Service was under charges of favoritism and laxness. In announcing his retirement from government service he said he had accomplished what he set out to do-restore the prestige of the Internal Revenue Service. He disclosed he will return to private business as chairman of the board and chief executive officer of American Fidelity and Casualty Co., the nation's largest insurer of trucks and buses, with a home office in Richmond. "I would have preferred to wait for the President's announcement," said Andrews, "but the report has become so widesprad that I am harassed and embarrassed at every turn. I have been pulled off planes, my phone keeps ringing- and with some reluctance I must confirm the reports." Operated Accounting Firm Andrews, former Virginia state auditor, has operated his own ac- counting firm here for many years. He served with the Marines and the State Department during World War II. , He later did some reorganization work for the United States General Accounting Office and the first Hoover Commission. President Eisenhower picked him for the top tax collector job in February 1953. Ike Improves; Meets With Sec. Humphrey DENVER (M)-President Dwight D. Eisenhower was well enough yesterday-starting a fourth week in the hospital-for his physicians to stop the daily cardiograms and release one of the specialists on his heart case. Definitely encouraging develop- ments in President Eisenhower's condition showed up in the bedside bulletins from the doctors for the second consecutive day. They sparked talk that contin- ued progress toward recovery at the present rate may enable the President to check out of the, hospital in another three weeks rather than four. J No Signs of Fatigue Showing "no signs of fatigue from his birthday, activities of yesterday," the chief executive had another outing on a sun-splashed terrace outside his eighth-floor hospital room, then had lunch and a 15-or-20-minute business conference with Secretary of the Treasury George Humphrey. Humphrey, who disclaimed any interest in the Republican presi- dential nomination in the event Eisenhower does not run again, told a news conference that he:' 1. Repeated to the chief execu- tive that he is "still very hopeful we're going to balance the budget this year"-the fiscal year ending next June 30. 'J2. He didnot discuss with the President "either today or any other day" the question of a second term for President Eisenhower.' 3. He has "just one candidate for President of the United States and that man is the President of the United States." 4. He assured the President- and President Eisenhower seemed pleased-that if all Americans "go ahead with confidence tempered with prudence, there is every rea- son why this nation will continue to enjoy new peaks of prosperity." Find Russian Shot Storm Toll High; Moves Into, Canada NEW YORK (A) -- The East Coast's near-hurricane moved off into Canada yesterday. Its legacy was 18 dead, wide flood and wind damage and nervous fear of re- newed havoc in devastated Con- necticut. The storm's influence cast a gray pall over the entire north- west. High winds and rain swept parts of New England through the morning. The rain again sent rivers to- ward overflowing. In town after town of Connecticut, so terribly mauled by Hurricane Diane's flood Waters less than two months ago, anxious residents watched and waited. State of Emergency Winsted, one of the worst hit last Aug. 19, declared a state of emergency today as the Mad River again put some parts of town under water. The Naugatuck River threat- ened towns all along its course. rorrington, at the head of the Naugatuck Valley, reported 5.33 inches of rain up to 8 a.m. It had 14.25 inches during the August floods. At Waterbury the river wiped out two bridges, one opened only three days ago and threatened a third. Waters Rise Far to the north, waters of Lake Sadawga rose to within a foot of the top of a dike and inhabitants of tiny Whitingham, Vt. prepared for an emergency. The Nashua River spilled over at Fitchburg, Mass., at a point where a million dollars worth of frozen food is stored in a ware- house. From all over New England there were repopts of flooded roads, ruined bridges, washouts and disrupted railroad operations. Storm Toll The storm took lives from New Jersey into Canada, mostly in highway accidents. Electrocutions from falling wires and drownings accounted for others. Honor Court To Review Peron's Past BUENOS AIRES ()-A military court of honor was appointed yesterday to try Juan D. Peron in absentia. The court will review his con- duct as a three-star general dur- ing his dictatorial regime as Ar- gentina's president. The new government already has uncovered evidence of lux- urious living, great wealth and ro- mances with young girls. Charges o Corruption The court may hear some of this evidence and charges of cor- ruption in the armed forces. Army Minister Gen. Leon Ben- goa, one of the leaders of the re- volt which toppled the strongman and sent him into\exile in Para- guay, saidthe five-man court will judge Peron on grounds of mili- taryhonor, without prejudice to another tribunal judging him for civil offenses or crimes. Under terms of the asylum granted Peron as a political refu- gee, it appeared unlikely any ef- fort would be made to return him here for trial. Evidence Used as Club But any evidence developed at the military court proceedings could be used as a club to keep him out of Argentina for a long time. Provisional President Eduardo Lonardi's press secretariat said yesterday investigators have un- earthed evidence of "barbarous" police torture during Perons re- gime. Victims who survived told in- vestigators one of the most wide- ly used torture instruments was an electric needle pressed to the skin. Another method was beat- ings with a rubber hose. Authorities Investigate The press statement added that authorities are pursuing the in- vestigation to identify the tortur- ers and bring them to trial. Those tortured, the statemient said, included men and women, students and workers, priests and members of the armed forces. "Criticism of the Peron regime was judged a crime and punished atrociously," it said. Police Raid Police raided a party yester- day at Phi Sigma Delta fol- lowing a complaint by an Ann Arbor resident. Two stolen signs, one from Ohio State were found in the house. Complainant said he would report the incident Monday to University administrators. Creating a disturbance was the charge. Phi Sigma Delta was having an "African party" and had advertised the affair Thursday with a demonstration on the diag. -Daily-Dick Gaskill WILDCATS SCORING THREAT THWARTED-Dale Pienta in Michigan's last ditch goal line stand during the third quarter. Tony Branoff (17) and Mike Rotunno (at far right) and an unidentified Michigan player combine to stop Northwestern's Chuck Brooks (on the ground at left) were also in on the play. Northwestern failed to pose another serious threat for the rugged Michigan defense. Band Show Adds Pep to Game Michigan Line Bogs Down 'Cats Wolverine Forward Wall Sparks Team to Second Conference Win By PHIL DOUGLIS Daily Sports Editor Michigan proved conclusively yesterday that a great defense the best offense as it turned back the challenge of an inspired bun of Northwestern Wildcats, 14-2, before 76,703 in the Michig Stadium. Offensively at their lowest ebb of the season, the Wolverin capitalized on breaks and stemmed a hard driving Wildcat backfie with a rock-like defense to gain their second Big Ten conference w Wildcat Defense Bewildering Lou Saban's fired-up cats presented Michigan with a bewilderir defensive alignment of their own-a slanting, veering, stunning set- By JIM BAAD A dazzling' halftime s h o w spliced in between two rather un- colorful halves of football, and the appearance of Ron Kramer on the side-lines, were the order of the day at the Michigan Stadium, yesterday. Kramer's appearance was defi- nitely an encouraging sight, for although he was not dressed for action, he was out of bed. After the rumors that have flown around the campus, this fact alone was worth noting. The seventh annual Band Day at Michigan managed to pep up the most lethargic crowd seen at Michigan this year for the second half of the game. After the sight of 183 high school bands converg-. ing on the playing field in one great brilliant array of color and near-perfect precision, the fans seemed to pick up enough enthus- iasm to cheer a little for their struggling team. Play Picks UpI Perhaps this change in the crowd was passed on to the players as the tone of play picked up and actually became exciting in the final quarter, sparked by the broken field running of fleet Jim Pace and Terry Barr. Except for this late show of brilliance, the whole of the after- noon's entertainment was squeezed into the twenty-odd minutes be- tween halves. As the first half came to a close one could see the tension rising in the lower half of the end-zone stands. Movement began-places were taken with much crowding and changing. At last the half-time gun sounded, and the Michigan Band, who had been up to its usual standard in the pre-game show, took the field with the familiar quick-stepping style. And then it began. The-great motly mass of color moved out upon the field, com- pletely dwarfing the 160-piece Michigan group, and after only a few minutes hardly a white yard- line marker could be seen. There wasn't even room for all of the bandsmen on the field. A few unfortunate ones had to remain in the stands. From All Over State There were bands assembled from all over the state, even from far away Negaunee and Calumet high schools located in the upper peninsula. "One hundred and eighty-three bands," the loudspeaker blared, "with over 400 drums and a million dollars worth of uniforms." And it looked like it. The sight was so large and so spectacular that sev- eral planes were attracted and circled overhead, enjoying the view. Then they began to play. One head bandmaster and 183 sub- bandmasters were laying down the beat, and thousands of instruments were playing the same son'g. To the pagent of color was added great volume of sound. Motion Begins And there was motion. Many schools had brought along their drum majorettes and to them was left the sidelines. In the small space there was not much chance for originality, but some girls can achieve it anywhere. The bands wound up their show, marched off in orderly fashion, and Michigan and Northwestern went back to the business of the day, and as we mentioned, pepped it up a little. Gore Urges Action On Road Bill WASHINGTON (P)-Sen. Albert Gore (D-Tenn.) said yesterday he had urged top House Democratic leaders to take up and pass the Senate's highway construction bill early in the 1956 session. Sen. Gore, who sponsored the measure which passed the Senate earlier this year, told reporters he had written Speaker Sam Ray- burn (D-Tex.) and talked to Ma- jority Leader John McCormack (D-Mass.) about quick action. "I can report that I received no particular discouragement from either," the senator said. View on Highway Program Gore said he had advanced the view that it was "a political neces- sity" for the Democrats, as the controlling party in Congress, to provide legislation for a vast pro- gram of highways improvement. On the question of financing the program, Gore said he thought that should be taken up in separ- ate legislation. He said a tax bill is bound to come up in the 1956 session and will involve funds de- rived from highway use. The present- federal excise tax on gasoline, as well as the levies on automobiles and trucks, will drop automatically on April 1 un- less extended. They have been extended twice at the request of President Dwight D. Eisenhower. Half-way Through Congress Gore pointed out that his meas- ure has the advantage of already being half way through Congress. It provides for a federal-state program calling for 18 billion dol- lars in highway spending over a five-year period. This contrasts with an administration bill which provides for about 38 billion dol- lars in federal-state outlays in a 10-year span. The administration plan was de- feated in both the Senate and House. It was attacked heavily on the ground that it involved a 21-billion-dollar bond issue out- side the debt limit. The Gore measure does not car- ry any financing provisions. Faure's Plan For Morocco Progresses PARIS (A') --- Premier Edgar Faure's government advanced his Moroccan home rule program yes- terday by appointing a four-man regency council for the restive protectorate. A communique announced the completion of this second step in Faure's program for Morocco even as the National Assembly threatened in this coming week to topple his Cabinet in a fit of uncertainty over another phase of North African policy, what to do 4that had Michigan's backs run- ning into trouble constantly. They turned the Wolverine air attack into a mere shadow of its potential with their hard charging line. Scoring one in the opening stan za, and once in the final period,, Michigan was good when it had to be. It broke the Wildcats' backs with a fearsome goal-line stand late in the third period-a stand that by all measure was the turn- Sing point of the game. It was obvious that Ben Ooster- baan's charges were far less effec- tive this week than last. Without Al Sigman, Terry Barr, and the quick thinking of Tony Branoff, there is no telling how badly Michigan would have been beaten. Three Men-And A Victory Sigman's recovery of a fumble led to the first Michigan tally, Barr was half the Michigan of- fense and scored the final Wolver- ine touchdown - and Branoff's running punt turned a disaster to an advantage. Sigman was the individual star of the game. It was he, who early in the opening stanza, raced into the Northwestern backfield to pounce on Jim Troglio's fumble- recovering it for Michigan on the Northwestern 14. From there, it was only a matter of moments before Terry Barr 'sliced the Wildcat line for eight yards in two tries, and then big Earl Johnson lumbered over right guard from two yards out for Michigan's first touchdown. Jim- my Maddock converted, and the crowd settled back to watch a Michigan rout. The Rout Never Came But the rout never came. The tenacious cats clawed their way back into contention - punching away at the Wolverine line-until Michigan had been driven back in the shadow of its own goal posts. Finally Michigan stopped the Cats on the 10, and it was then that Branoff bobbled the ball in the end zone-fell on his fumble -- and the Cats had a safety. It was evident to the crowd at halftime that Michigan was cer- tainly not the Nation's best team yesterday. Its attack had been stalled - and a 7-2 advantage looked none too secure. The second half turned into a spectacular display of offensive fireworks and defensive savvy. It was not long in coming. Tom Maentz got off a booming kick of 70 yaras into the Wildcat end zone to set the stage for tie ex- citement that was yet to coie. 'M' Stands Firm The Cats then drove from their own 20 to the Michigan 5 yard line in just 13 plays. They had a third down and just three to go for a first down. This looked like the game. It appeared that the Wildcats were a cinch to score-and take a 9-7 lead as the fourth quarter opened., But the Wolverine forward wall had other ideas. With a savage fury the Big Blue line overwhel- med Jerry Weber as he hit the left tackle spot . . . and stopped him cold. The big play-the play of .the day-was coming up. It was 4th and 3-and again Weber slammed forward-this time at left end. Once again the Michigan line swept forward, and led by Sigman, 'ANGELS IN PIGTAILS' Concert Series To Present Children' RUDOLPH BING: Met Manager To Speak On Workings of Opera By MARY LEE DINGLER Rudolph Bing is credited with "infusing new life into the old Met."
