The Israe- lis, said 10 Egyptians_ were killed and 29 captured in the raid, des- cribed as retaliation for an Egyp- tian strike at an Israeli police post Tuesday. A desert area that has become the chief friction point between Israel and Egypt, the zone is sup'- posed to have been neutralized under a proposal of Maj. Gen. E. L. M. Burns, chief of the -UN truce observers, to which the two na- tions agreed Sept. 27. Enter Israeli Territory In the Israeli sector of Jerusa- lem, Israeli officials said two com- panies of Egyptian troops-pei'- hapss300 men-entered Israel's territory in a penetration of near- ly a mile into the Nizana-El Auja area Friday afternoon. A Foreign Ministry statement described the two companies as re- inforcements for two other Egyp- tion troops which had entered Is- raeli territory in the last two days and entrenched themselves in the demilitarized zone "in disregard of the armistice agreement and of promises made by Egypt to Gen. Burns." A note to Burn's organization urged that Egypt "be requested promptly to withdraw the troops which they have massed in strength in Israeli territory."

Big Four De East, West Rebuff Rival Offers On Unification GENEVA (P)-Rival treaties for European security were offered by the East and West at the Big Four conference yesterday. Both met immediate rebuffs. Russia's V. M. Molotov and the foreign ministers of the United States, Britain and France failed to bridge any of the wide gap be- tween their opposing policies for this arms-weary continent. In their second session, still under the amiable influence of "the Geneva spirit," the Big Four diplomats tackled the toughest practical adlock at Geneva Soviets Fail In New UN Debate, Bid UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. (AP) - The Soviet Union met with sharp rebuff yesterday in its efforts to plunge the United Nations into debate over disarmament before the issue can be taken up by the foreign ministers in Geneva. The UN Political Committee up- held the contention of the United States and Britain that only con- fusion would result from a simul- taneous arms debate in Genevaj and the United Nations. By a vote of 49-5 with two ab- stentions, the Political Committee approved a proposal by Colombia to consider next the question of effects of atomic radiation on hu- man health and safety. The Soviet bloc was in opposition and Syria and Indonesia abstained.! "problems which their heads of gov- erment briefly discussed here three month ago. Offer Extra Guarantees The West-insistent that the se- curity dilemma and the German unification problem cannot be! solved separately-offered Russia extra guarantees against German aggression in return for letting the membership held by the Bonn Republic in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. Molotov uttered again Russia's condemnation of NATO as a war hazard and urged acceptance of a new European collective security system that would recognize the prolonged division of Germany. Proposed Security System His proposed security system would wipe out NATO and the sev- en-nation Western European Un- ion, introduce Red China as an official observer in European af- fairs, and eventually compel the withdrawal of all American troops from the continent. The dramatic highlight of the west's security bid was a provi- sion to allow NATO and the Soviet bloc each to operate a radar air raid warning system inside the SHOWERS SIX PAGES lay; Role Kramer May See Action In Vital Tilt 80,000 to View Televised Battle By ALAN EISENBERG Assoiate Sports Editor Iowa will begin and end its 1955 football season at the Michigan Stadium this afternoon. Not since 1924 have the Hawk-- eyes defeated the Wolverines. They came close the past two-years, los- ing by a collective margin of two points-both times by identical 14-13 scores. It is no secret that Forest Evashevski, Iowa coach and past Michigan great in the late 30's, would like nothing better than to upset the apple cart of his Alma Mater. Nationally Televised Game A crowd of 80,000 will watch the Homecoming game that gets un- derway at 1:30 p.m. Countless millions more will watch the con- test over NBC-TV in the national- ly televised game of the week, The' game will also be seen on color TV Michigan, undefeated in five games and leading the Big Ten, will be facing a Hawkeye team that has a 1-1-1 record in con- ference play. Iowa has also dropped a game to powerful UCLA by the tune of 33-13. The Hawk- eyes' record, though is deceiving. The visitors have shown great abil- ity to move the ball all season. They have scored more than ten touchdowns this year on drives of 50 yards or more. The Wolverines, on the other hand, have been able to accomplish this trick only on three occasions. There can be no doubt that Evashevski is planning something special for, the Maize and Blue. Evy held secret practice sessions all week as everyone except play- ers and coaches were barred from the field. Earlier this year the Iowa mentor pulled the same trick See WOLVERINES, Page 3 Memoir Cited By Regents A memoir on the late Prof. -Daily-Hal Leeds VARSITY NIGHT ACT-Features Russ Brown suspending his sister in magic act which awed audience.
