The request came amid reports that a group of pro-Soviet army officers has seized virtual control of neighboring Syria. Iraq's Ambassador Moussa Al-Shabandar asked for the arms during a call at the State Department.

"We especially want to increase our area of defenses and we hope these weapons will be shipped as quickly as possible." State Department officials, who had been seriously concerned over reports of new Soviet weapons reaching Syria, said they would give prompt consideration to Iraq's request. a Weapons Sent 1An undisclosed quantity of Am- rerican weapons, including tanks, - artillery and light arms have been delivered to Iraq under the 1954 1 aid agreement. These arms were sent in order to a help Iraq, a member of the West- t ern Baghdad Pact, strengthen its defense against possible aggres- sion. The Iraq envoy, in discussing the new arms request, sought to play down reports of mounting friction between his government and Syria. On Sunday, Syrian army officers and a member of the Syrian gov- ernment charged Iraq with plot- ting against Syria's welfare. Reports of Friction "We don't know exactly what is going on in Syria," Shabandar said. "All those reports of friction with us-those are family troubles and we are going to solve them peacefully." Any additional United States weapons for Iraq would have to be shipped with the understanding they were for strictly defensive purposes, not to be used for any attack against either Syria or sIsrael. BEIRUT, Lebanon (RP) - Syria came under bitter Turkish attack yesterday for accepting Soviet weapons, imposing martial law and allegedly concentrating troops along the border of Lebanon, a sister state in the Arab sphere. Radio Ankara brought into the open charges-long circulated in the coffee houses and market places of the Middle East-that Egypt is instigating large-scale trouble sinother Arab nations with Communist help. Syrian Trouble Much of that trouble has arisen in Syria, whose 60,000-man army fell under control of a group of pro-Soviet officers headed by Col. Abdul Hamid Saraj in a silent coup the day fighting broke out in Egypt. Saraj is a Nationalist strong man in the style of Egypt's Gamal Abdel Nasser. .The Turkish radio commentator said investigation showed Egyp- tian agents played a part in re- cent disturbances in Lebanon, a little half-Christian, half-Moslem republic where some French and British buildings have been the targets of bombing attacks. Arms Smuggled He said arms and explosives had been smuggled into Lebanon on behalf of both Egypt and Syria. In one case, he reported, bombs were found in the car of an Egyp- tian Embassy staff member and an arms cache was uncovered in the home of the car's chauffeur. Lebanon is more Western-mind- ed than some of the Arab nations and has been the subject of Sy- rian propaganda attacks almost as vitriolic as those Syria has leveled at Arab Iraq, a charter member of the British-sponsored Baghdad Pact. A charge by a Syrian military spokesman Friday that Iraq tried to furnish heavy arms for a coup aimed at overthrowing Syria's ignoring Iraq's dismissal of the charge as nonsense, said it was a criminal affair.

'Typical' Weather Returns; Snow, Slush To Remain By ROBERT S. BALL, JR. Snow, slush and student mutterings about "typical Ann Arbor weather" returned to the campus with the end of the Thanksgiving weekend. Some students had struggled with icy roads, others had worried through air schedules, and still others had found hours added to their return times, so for many the beauty went unenjoyed. Students Shuffle, Slide To further spoil the winter, students shuffled yesterday over still- icy walks, careful of their footing, while others forewent the use of their bicycles. Some of the beauty was lost for them, too, especially "The workers have to live," a council spokesman said. But many factories were still r idle. This was due in some cases to unrepaired machinery and in others to passive worker resis- tance. Informed sources here put little credence in reports- abroad about Russian troop movements through Hungary toward the Yugoslav bor- der. These sources said they had checked earlier rumors of a move- ment of 20 Russian divisions into Hungary and found nothing to substantiate them. Deportees Returned A number of young deportees were reported to have been re- turned from Uzhgorod, capital of the Carpatho-Ukraine. These young people told the Budapest Workers' Council there are about 1,500 Hungarians at Uzhgorod. The council is determined to de- mand their return in its talks with Premier Janos Kadar and with the Soviet military command here. Hungarians interpreted a speech by Premier Kadar Sunday to the members of the Budapest Work- ers' Council as a return to the policy of the big stick, dictated by the Soviet military command. Kadar Defied But members of the council, interviewed at their headquarters here, defied Karad and insisted on their original demands for the return of Nagy now officially re- ported "visiting in Romania," and the withdrawal of Russian troops. Their spokesman said the deci- sion to resume work was unani- mous. Six. Indicted By U.S. Jury WASHINGTON (P) - A federal grand jury yesterday indicted four newspaper men, a television pro- gram director and a woman h- brarian for contempt of Congress. All six refused to answer ques- tions about Communist activity in appearances before the Senate In- ternal Security subcommittee, Those indicted were Alden Whit- man and Robert Shelton, copy- readers on the New York Times; Seymour Peck, desk man on the Times Sunday Magazine; William A. Price, former New York Daily News reporter; Herman Liveright, formerly of station WDSU-TV, New Orleans, and Mrs. Mary Knowles, librarian at Plymouth Meeting, Pa. All six based their refusals to answer on the freedom of speech and freedom of press guarantees of the First Amendment to the Constitution.

Prof. William A. McLaughlin, of the romance language department, and five other local residents were impaneled yesterday by County Coronor Dr. Edwin C. Ganzhorn' Last week, County Prosecuting Attorney Edmond DeVine said 30 witnesses would be subpoenaed for the inquest. According to County Probate Judge John W. Conlin, the 9 a.m. hearing should end controversy on the case. Several views concerning the manner in which Lillard commit- ted suicide were advanced during the past month. Juvenile Home officials reported they found Lillard hanging from a sheethem suspended fromrthe hinge of his security room door at the home. The state police report is closed to the public. when the annual snow flurries swept into their faces. For many, at least, it took a good deal of esthetic fortitude to appre- ciate the three inches of settled snow on the ground last night. For those curious enough to find out the facts behind the snows, the report at Willow Run Airport sounded like any 11:45 p.m. weather telecast: A storm area moved sourth from Minnesota, crept down into Illinois and In- diana, then -headed east into New York and New England, Sun To Shine But the weatherman, having predicted snow flurries for last night, held out the possibility of a let-up today, including higher ceilings and a few scattered rays of sun. More snow is expected tomorrow or Thursday, he thinks, with "some warming" around Saturday. Temp- eratures were expected to remain around three degrees below the normal range of 40 to 29 degrees until then. lBredv old Cited Prof. Louis I.

However, other officials said they thought the agreement would prove "satisfactory." The New York Times reported from Iceland that the agreement provides for retention of United States forces in control of the base but under a two-country arrange- ment that would bypass the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. Meet Position American officials said there was no intention here to undercut NATO. They did say the agreement probably would have to be couched in some special terms to meet the Icelandic position. About 4,000 men make up the United States strength at the Air Force Base. Iceland's Foreign Minister Emil Johnson com- mented on a visit here in October that Icelanders ,want to keep the base, but to maintain it them- selves for use in case of emergency.

By DAVE GREY ..: ,;;.; :::. .:.. ;:.:.;:'.::Dafy Sports Editor .-Itustseemed to be "Michigan's Day" last Saturday in Columbus. < YzThe 1956 football season ended on a positive note for the Wol- verines, who added up an overall season record of seven wins and : two losses, a tie for second place in the Big Ten Conference, and a final ranking of seventh in the nation by the AP poll. At the same time, the walls of Ohio State's gigantic horseshoe v> stadium came tumbling down for the Buckeyes and Coach Woody Hayes. Notable Victory Saturday's impressive 19-0 de- feat of Ohio State will long be remembered by most of the chilled 82 223 fans in attendance. For the enthusiastic Michigan contingent of nearly 10,000 the game brought a satisfying reversal of last year's distasteful 17-0 de- feat in Ann Arbor. The game also left the impres- sion that maybe this Michigan = yteam was the best in the Confer- ence. After all, Michigan State and Ohio State had fallen, Minne- ;' < 'u x :". . n 'i- hn rA nA Y ropean nations. A number of the demonstrators were refugees from Latvia, Lithu- ania and the Ukraine. As Kudryavtsev described it, "Americans assured us that true Americans had nothing whatever to do with the hostile hoodlum ruffianism we received at the hands of reactionary scum from among Displaced Persons in Den- ver, Ann Arbor and Wichita." Prof. Pollock, when he finished chuckling, called the description in Izvestia "typical Russian jour- nalism" and said the observers were "treated very politely." Students 'Persistent' The students who picketed were "a little bit persistent, but I wouldn't say they were impolite. "I explained that this is a free country and that unless what they did was against the law they were free to do it." He said the Russian comments "speak something for the selec- tivity of their thinking" when the demonstrations were described'and sights such as the Rackham Building, the law library, and the stadium were ignored. Prof. Pollock also suggested that "an hour and a half seminar with me and two other elections ex- perts in the department" would be something the Russians would remember, if not report, Single Mention The only mention in the Izvestia article of the elections - which the observer team was- invited to study-was Kudryavtsev's refer- ence to balloting going on in a saloon. Accounts of the Russian article did not specify whether the bal- loting was for President of the United States or Miss Rheingold. Tom Dorsey Dies in Sleep GREENWICH, Conn.

It will take months to open it. Gen. Burns, Canadian com- mander of the UN Emergency 'Force told a news conference he hopes to establish his headquar- ters near Qantara in the canal zone "within a relatively short time." Qantara is 35 miles south of Port Said and close to the cease- fire line at El Cap. At the same time, he said, ar- rangements had been made to take over three camps between Qantara and Ismailia as an as- sembly area for the UN police force. UN Votes Suez Police $10Million UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (M -- The United Nations Assembly overrode Soviet objections yester- day and approved a grant of 10 million dollars to pay the initial costs of the emergency police force in Egypt. The vote was 52-9 with 13 coun- tries abstaining: Only the Soviet bloc countries voted against it. The United States, Britain and France voted for it. Thosecountr i e s abstaining were Cambodia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Israel, Luxembourg, Mexico, Nic- aragua, Paraguay, Turkey and South Africa. Repayment Postponed The resolution authorized Sec- retary General Dag Hammar- skjold to draw on a working capi- tal fund of the UN for the ex- penses. It left to later Assembly action just how this money is to be repaid to the capital fund. Before the balloting, Soviet Dep- uty Foreign Minister V. V.
