He r Hungarians StMill Oppose Kadar Acts Workers' Leaders Still Imprisoned B U D A P E S T (3)-Hungarian workers maintained their attitude of bitter opposition yesterday to the policies of Premier Janos Kadar's Soviet-supported regime. But more men were appearing on the job under the compelling urge of keeping their families in food. Radio Budapest reported the first execution under martial law imposed last Sunday. Janos Soldesz was sentenced to death and immediately executed after his conviction at Miskolc on r a charge of hiding arms. Another man was sentenced to death but the court recommended the sentence be commuted. The government made no move toward releasing two workers' leaders whose arrest set off sit- down strikes by thousands of men Thursday and Friday. Reporters Charged Two Western correspondents, Eric Waha of the Associated Press and Richard Kilian of the London Daily Express, were ordered to leave Hungary before tomorrow. Waha, a 32-year-old Austrian, was accused of encouraging work- ers to strike, and Kilian,29 years old, an American whose mother lives in New York City, of failing to adhere to regulations applying to foreign newsmen. Waha denied the charges, and both me expressed belief the ex- pulsion was actually ordered by Soviet occupation headquarters, which takes a dim view of report- ing activities by Western news- men. No Action Taken Hungarian authorities took no action to limit activities of Rich- ard Kasischke and Endre Marton, two other AP reporters in Buda- pest. Kasischke is an American and Marton a Hungarian. Both were admitted to the big Csepel in- dustrial complex on the island in- the Danube Rives south of Buda- pest. Work in Shops Workers said about 50 to 70 per cent of the staff reported on the job yesterday and some work was being done in the shops reporters visited. About 36,000 are employed there. On Friday 28,000 men staged a sitdown at the plant to enforce their demands for the release of Sandor Racz, chairman of the out- lawed Budapest Central Workers' Council, and Sandor Bari, the vice chairman. Similar sitdowns hit other Budapest factories. The reporters attended a meet- ing of the Csepel workers' council, where Premier Kadar's policies came under severe criticism. ELI Student Hurt, Robbed In Dearborn Rafael Bolanos, an English Language Institute student from El Salvador was beaten and rob- bed early yesterday morning, Ann Arbor police reported. Bolanos was attacked by three men and two women in a car while walking alone on a Dearborn eceives 600 pounds (approximately n $1,500) yearly. Informed of the selection, Uni- versity President Harlan Hatcher commented, "He is a wonderful representative of the University of Michigan. I'm delighted that he's going, not only for his own sake, but as a University of Mich- igan man." Vice-President for Student Af- fairs James A. Lewis said, "I can't think of a person better equipped for it, or who would get more out of or give more to the Rhodes Scholarship." History Major SDean of Men Walter B. Rea termed Baad "an outstanding in- dividual, both as a student and as a member of the office staff."

Reunited with her brother after 10 years, Mrs. Csomoss and Zoltan fled Hungary in October and arrived in Ann Arbor two days ago. Escapee Relates Flight From Torn Homeland By JAMES ELSMAN Mrs. Ethel Csomoss began walking from Pilizentivan, Hungary, last October 27 with her aline-year-old son Zoltan. She trusted only two people in the town of 3,000 well enough to tell them where she was going-to Austria. Zoltan's best friend cried when he learned he would never see his companion again. They packed only two utility bags for their journey-one change of clothes for each of them. In Piliszentivan they abandoned a com- pletely furnished house. They Reach Austrian Soil Five days and 200 miles later Mrs. Csomoss and Zoltan were on Austrian soil. They had walked half the distance. At other times they hitchhiked rides on horse-carts DAVE BAAD . . . Rhodes Scholar of Sphinx and Michigauma hon- or societies and was a member of Student Government Council. In addition to his work in the Dean of Men's office, he is study- ing for .a master's degree in Far Eastern Studies. The last Rhodes Scholar chosen from the University was Robert L. Taylor, '46, who was named just 10 years ago. Rhodes Bequest The scholarship fund was be- queathed by Cecil Rhodes to fos- ter Anglo-American relations. Rhodes was a British colonial and imperial statesman. A gradu- ate of Oxford, he was responsible for opening up and settling the colony in South Africa now named for' him. Plan Hearing For Driving Rules Review Hearings will be held after the first of " the year to determine whether changes should be made in present driving regulations, Uni- versity Vice-President for Student Affairs James A. Lewis has an- nounced. Although definite arrangements are yet to be made Vice-President Lewis said the committee would include student representatives, probably from Student Govern- ment Council. Fee Questioned Particular attention during the hearings will be placed on the $7 auto registration fee, which groups and individuals have claimed un- fair and asked to be exempted from. Junior and senior medical stu- dents, Vice-President Lewis ex- plained, have felt they should not be includedunder the regulation because of the excessive driving they must necessarily do to at- tend classes. Married graduate students have also claimed the $7 fee represents a hardship for them. Present University driving reg- ulations, in effect this fall, were approved on a two-year trial basis. Hear Complaints and milk wagons. Twenty times they were halted by Red Army troops and 20 times they lied ("We're just going to the next town"). At night they slept in fields. Since Friday they have been sleeping at 907 Sybil in Ann Ar- bor. Via Austria and Camp Kilmer, New Jersey, both mother and son were brought to live with her brother, Art Csomors, '56E,, and her mother, Mrs. Veronika Csom- ors. Art and his mother left Hungary in 1945. He speaks both Hun- garian and English, translating as his sister tells her story. Taught School Mrs. Csomoss, a divorcee, taught elementary school in Piliszentivon. She was forced to tell her pupils there was no God. Any teacher caught attending church was purged from her job. She had to drill home the lesson that a good patriot was one who' informed on his friends and par- ents. Anyone caught deriding Premier Rakosi with a joke was given five years in prison. Will Learn English During the revolution, her stu- dents ripped down the national flag with the red star in it and burned all communist texts they could find. She said Soviet troops and Hungarian police lived in con- stant terror. Well, it's all over now. First she's going to learn the English language and then get a job. Zoltan will start school in Ann Arbor next semester. Despite language difficulties he will start in the fourth grade, the same grade he was in when he left Hun- gary. Art's mother is employed by the University but is now on a leave of absence because of illness. Art won't have a job until he graduates in June, but says of their family of four, "I think we'll make it." What do Mrs. Csomoss and Zol- tan think of America?

Eisenhower and Sec- retary of State John Foster Dulles yesterday hailed what they called "renewed evidence of vigor and unity" in the Atlantic Alliance. They held that this unified strength is being displayed in the face of "difficulties and dangers" -apparently dangers arising from the upheavals against Soviet dom- I ination in Eastern Europe.

NATO Conferences In that city he held a week of conferences with Allied foreign ministers at a meeting of the INorth Atlantic Treaty Council. This session decided uponcan atomic-age streamlining of Allied forces. In connection with this decision it is reported that the United States is planning to cut the manpower srength of its infantry divisions by about 4,000 men each over the next two years or so. Dulles' Statement In a statement at the White House after his meeting with the President, Dulles referred to the military modernization move. He said the NATO Council had "directed a fresh military study, which would take account of mod- ern weapons, available resources and the cooperative sharing of burdens and responsibilities." He also emphasized that the 151 nations comprising the anti-Com- munist alliance had agreed on plans for "a more thorough-going system of consultation" and for promoting "the peaceful settle- ment" of future disputes among the member countries. State of Union President Eisenhower will de- liver his annual State of the Union! message, containing his latest as- sessment of international and do- mestic problems, on Jan. 10.

Cagers Edge Butler, 84-77; Late Surge Brings Victory By JOHN HILLYER It took superior size and a 27-point splurge by sophomore George Lee to do it, but Michigan's scrappy basketball team finally subdued red-hot Butler, 84-77, last night at Yost Field House. Catching fire in the latter portion of the second half, the Wolverines called on superior rebounding and some fancy shooting to overcome a six-point Butler advantage. Sink Free Throws Both squads were blazing from the floor. Michigan hit on 45 per cent of its field-goal efforts, the visitors making 'good on 56 per cent, althought shooting only 55 times to Michian's 72. 17 Another factor which probably o l ver e s made the Maize and Blue a better ball club than it was on its recent trip west was its 86 per cent job e t ]jjcjil from the free-throw line.

Eisenhower dipped into his emergency fund for an addi- tional four million dollars yester- day to help care for Hungarian refugees fleeing into Austria. On Capitol Hill, Sen. Arthur W a t k i n s (R-Utah) called for broadening of the McCarran-Wal- ter Immigration Act. He contended this wasrnecessary to facilitate the transfer of more refugees to this country., Sen. Mike Monroney (D-Okla) said, however, he thought Con- gress should turn its attention to relocating more of the refugees closer to their former homes, where they can help carry on the fight against communism. In announcing President Eisen- hower's action, the White House said the flight of refugees from Hungary has continued since the initial allocation of one million dollars Nov. 14.I Norwegians H Attack On French Occupation Patrols Come Under Fire; Report No Casualties PORT SAID, Egypt ()--United Nations troops opened fire yester- day on Egyptian guerrillas, break- ing up an attack on a French jeep. It was the first time UN troops have had to shoot sine the inter- national police force landed in Egypt. West Leaving An official Egyptian source said yesterday all British and French forces would be withdrawn from Port Said today. He said that 1,000 Egyptian o- licemen are to be moved by train from Ismailia to Port Said today and the British and French would be gone by the time they arrive. Norwegian troops in the blue helmets of the UN aimed their fire at a band of Egyptians hurling grenades at a jeep. There were no reports of casualties. Grenades Tossed The Norwegians themselves had come under attack earlier in the day. Three grenades were tossed at a Norwegian jeep. Small arms fire was also directed at Swedish patrol. Guerrillas continued to harass the British occupation forces, bringing a warning from the Brit- ish commander that more attacks could lead to "really violent" re- taliation. Casualties in the day's incidents were one Egyptian killed and a French soldier wounded. General Protests Lt. Gen. Sir Hugh Stockwell, commander of the British-French task force, fired off a strong protest to the UN high command. He demanded that Egyptian au- thorities stop what he described as "a coordinated and sustained cam- paign of violence." Addressing Maj. Gen. E. L. M. Burns, UN troop commander Stockwell said: "Failing a clear manifestation of the sincerity of their Egyptian assurances as expressed to you previously, I reserve to myself the right to take whatever action I deem necessary for the security of the forces under my 'command." Burns Protests Before receiving Stockwell's message, Burns himself protested strongly to Egyptian' authorities in Cairo against the attacks on UN patrols. The Egyptian government de- nied knowledge of any grenade throwing. 'Abdel Hatem, information dir- ector, said the Egyptians had lodged a complaint with Burns against alleged looting of private houses and automobiles by British troops in Port Said and the hold- ing of Egyptians as hostages. Son of Cuban Rebel Missing In Mexico City MEXICO CITY ()-The son of a Cuban rebel leader was reported kidnapped yesterday but police appeared inclined to treat it as a private custody battle. The Cuban Embassy in a state- ment said it had learned the child was with his mother. A relative charged the abduc- tion was a Cuban government plot to smash the uprising. Reported kidnapped was Fidel Castro Diaz, 7 years old, son of Fidel Castro Ruz. The father, ex- iled to Mexico, has been reported, without confirmation, leading a small invasion of Cuba. ed kwn iKramer s home-team Yost Field House record of 28 points by one. He operated at both the guard! and forward positions, but it seem-I ed to matter little where he was playing. Wright Does Well Other fine performances were' turned in by Billy Wright, who notched 18 and hit well from the outside throughout the evening, and Pete Tillotson, who was sur- prisingly consistent on his set- shooting, an unfamiilar weapon for the 6'6" forward. The action was see-saw and somewhat sloppy throughout. the first half, with both teams losing the ball several times on travelling violations and poor ball-handling. Guzek Scores 30 Red-haired Wally Cox hit ex- tremely well from all over the court for the visitors, and forward Ted Guzek, who was high man with 30 points, made good on drive-ins, hooks, layups, or any See LEE, Page 3 By JIM BAAD Michigan's hockey team turned a slow start into a wild third period scoring spree as it came from behind to whip the McGill Redmen, 5-2, before 2,500 fans at the Coliseum last night. The game was the Wolverines' last on home ice for the next two weeks as they head west to- morrow. They will open league play a- gainst Colorado Tuesday and Wednesday and then play Den- ver Friday and Saturday. Changed Team. As the Wolverines took the ice to start the third stanza they were behind by one goal. Then they caught fire. To start off, Tom Rendall dug a puck out of the corner, controlled it beau- tifully as he waited for a team- mate to get into position, and then fired to Ed Switzer in front of the goal and Switzer flipped it in to tie up the contest. Just 13 seconds later, Switzer grabbed a loose puck off Neil Mc- Donald's stick, whirled around, and fired hard from 15 feet to push the Wolverines out ahead and virtually break McGill's back. Loose Puck The fourth goal came at 8:57. Don McIntosh raced around be- hind the McGill net with the puck, and then flipped it out to Rendall who pushed it in at point blank range. The last goal was scored with Michigan at a one man advant- age.
