Admitting to two and four-tenths inches of snowfall on Satur- day and "traces" of snow yesterday, one phase of the Willow Run Weather Station's report can be questioned by many Ann Arbor resi- dents, still digging out from Saturday's snow blitz. Forecast for the Michigan area is continued cold and generally fair, with heavy snows near Lake Michigan and occasional snow flurries in other areas. Weather forecasters predict moderating temperature for tomor- row in the Ann Arbor area.

Gold Control JAKARTA, Indonesia (')-Indo- nesia's rebel government in Su- matra stepped up its economic war on the central government yesterday, seeking to tie up its gold abroad and to shut off its major income at home. With financial wizard Sjadrud- din Prawiranegara as its premier the rebel regime asked 40 banks in the United States and 16 other countries to block all gold bal- ances belonging to the central government. It called for reports on balances and other assets to be cabled to the Bank of Indonesia in Padang, central Sumatra. ' The rebels launched their eco- nomic war Sunday with orders to all foreign oil companies in Indo- nesia to halt oil shipments and payment of oil royalties to Ja- karta. There was no immediate indica- tion whether foreign governments or firms would comply with either order. Sumatra is the richest in oil of all Indonesia's islands. It would be a severe blow to the central government if its millions in oil income were cut off. The avowed aim of the rebels is to force out the central govern- ment of Premier Djuanda and force President Sukarno to drop his program of "guided Democra- cy." ey , North Korea Re'jects Plea PANMUNJON, Korea W)P-Com- munist North Korea yesterday re- jected a demand by the United Nations Command for the immedi- ate return of a South Korean airliner which flew 32 persons to North Korea Sunday. Communist spokesmen at a meeting of the Military Armistice Commission secretariat here said the South Korean government must deal directly with the North Korean regime. South Korea did not sign the armistice suspending the Korean War and has no direct contact with the Red regime. The North Korean radio Sunday night admitted the plane was in North Korea and claimed the in- cident was the result of a defec- tion to the 'Communists. Aboard were two American pilots and 30 others, mostly Koreans. A South Korean spokesman at Seoul said it was a case of "burg- lary in broad daylight." He said the passengers and crew in effect were kidnapped. The plane vanished after flying past Seoul from Pusan Sunday. South Korea radar tracked it as far as Sunan, site of a Red air base about 15 miles north of Pyongyang, North Korean capital. 'M' DROPS TO SEVENTH: Spartans whip wolverines, 79-69 E By RUDE DIFAZIO Michigan State moved to a "comfortable" lead in the tight Big Ten basketball race last night with a 79-69 defeat of Michigan before nearly 8,700 fans at Yost Field House. It was the Spartans' seventh Conference win against three losses. Coupled with Ohio State's, 93-83, victory over Indiana, it gave MSU a one game lead over idle Purdue, who backed into second place with a 6-4 record. The loss was Michigan's third straight. The Wolverines who led the league eight days ago, have now dropped into the seventh place with a 4-5 record. Spartans Pull Ahead After a slow start, the Spartans jumped out to a 31-25 half-time lead and then constantly beat back Wolverine second-half chal- lenges with torrid out-court shoot- ing led by forward Bob Anderegg. The Spartan forward, who was high man for the night with 25 points, scored 21 in the second half on a hot streak of jump shots from the corner. Star eenter : Johnny Green, who had three dif- ferent Wolverines guarding him at various times during the game, hit a respectable 18. Forward George Lee lead Michi- gan with 22, while Pete Tillotson hit for 17. Anderegg Stops Drives On two different occasions in the second half, the Wolverines pulled 'to within two points only to have Anderegg hit from the side, killing the spurt. They quickly bounced back from the six point half-time deficit to trail, 35-33, but Anderegg, play- ing his best game of the season, hit four straight baskets and a foul shot to help boost the Spar- tans to seven-point, 46-39, lead. Not ready to give up, the Wol- verines came fighting back to trail by two 47-49, only to have An- deregg hit again. Tillotson hit a School Board In Little Rock Expels Negro LITTLE ROCK (P)-The Little Rock School Board decided last night to expel Minniejean Brown from integrated Central High School for the remainder of this term. The move was recommended by school Supt. Virgil T. Blossom. W. B. Brown, father of the 16- year-old Negro girl, labelled the decision as "very unfair." "It sounded to me like Mr. Blos- som was expelling Minniejean for her own safety," Brown said. "He didn't say it in those words, but that's the way we took it." The Negro girl claims she has been a main target of segrega- tionist students during her five months at the school. She had been suspended in incidents in- volving Minniejean. -Daily-David Arnold GIVE HIM A CHANCE-Wolverine Pete Tillotson (left) and Dale Kingsbury corner Michigan State's kneeling Lance Olsen in the first half of last night's game. Olsen, however, got up on his feet and scored eight points for the winners. tip-in making the score 51-49, but guard Jack Quiggle notched two quick baskets to put MSU in front by six with 8:53 to go and Michi- gan never again threatened. The Wolverine's again fell vic- tim to an extended scoring famine in the first half. For one stretch of eight minutes they could only score two points. Michigan, with fine outside shooting from their guards against the Spartans' zone defense, jump- ed out to a 17-11 lead midway through the half. State cut the, lead to two points before Michi- gan could score again. This made the score 19-15 with 8:43 to go. MSU Takes Lead The Wolverines shooting then fell into a deep freeze. MSU peck- ed away at the lead for the next three minutes until Anderegg hit a jump shot to put them in front 21-19. Lee scored to tie the game 21 all, but Michigan couldn't hit again until he scored a jump shot nearly five minutes later with 43 seconds to go. By this time State had built up a 29-23 lead.

Crisler told The Daily if Detroit could get the 1964 Olyr pics, he would allow use of University facilities for the tra and field games. He also said he would allow use of Unive sity housing facilities. State Sen. John B. Swainson (D-Detroit) last week pr posed establishment of a commission to investigate buildi a 100,000 seat stadium at the election the voters of the First Ward and in other wards will demonstrate their approval of the policies of Mayor Samuel J.

Student Hurt In Auto Crash.; Car Wrecked Jan K. Ratliff, '59. received arm, leg and chest injuries Sunday morning when a car in which he was riding, driven by Carl Sattler, hit a telephone pole on S. Main St. Ratliff, 21 years old, was re- leased from University Hospital yesterday. His wife, one of the other four persons involved in the accident, suffered bruises and cuts and is reported in good con- dition. Miss Geraldine M. Zahn, 21 years old, also an Ann Arbor resi- dent, was the most seriously in- jured. Sattler, a local resident, was driving north, and was apparently passing anotherncar when his ve- hicle skidded on snowy pavement and went out of control. The car spun, jumped the curb, and the right side of the car hit the tele- phone pole. The car was complete- ly demolished. Ann Arbor police said yesterday that an investigation of the acci- dent is continuing. YD'S To Hear Residents Sign Bias Petition A petition stating that persons of any color, religion and nation- ality would be welcomed as neigh- bors has so far been signed by 667 Ann Arbor residents. The statement is being circu- lated this week as part of Brother- hood Week, sponsored by the Citi- zens' Committee on Inter-Group Relations. Although not officially connect- ed with the city's Human Relations Commission, the citizens' com- mittee has maintained contact with the Human Relations group. Prof. Hubert M. Blalock of the sociology department is chairman of the citizens' committee. U.S. Signs Bases Deal. With Britain WASHINGTON (W)-The United States, having completed arrange- ments for nuclear missile bases in the British Isles, is now negotiat- ing for similar launching sites in France. State Department sources indi- cated the Anglo-American agree- ment may be signed and sealed today. It is expected to be the pilot pact for arming other North Atlantic Treaty Organization allies with medium-range rocket weap- ons. The British bases, reported to be four in number and strung along Britain's eastern coast, are sched- uled to be armed with United States Jupiter and Thor ballistic missiles by the end of the year. Could Reach USSR From Britain these 1,500-mile missiles could conceivably reach as far north into Russia as Arch- angel, just below the Arctic Circle, and as far east as Odessa, on the Black Sea. Moscow and Leningrad would be within the firing radius. Bases in France would provide even deeper penetration. Gen. Lauris Norstad, NATO's European commander, said in Paris Monday that while prelimi- nary discussions have been started with France for bases there, no specific agreement has been reach- ed so far. Joint Control Planned Under the arrangement with Britain, the launching sites will be jointly controlled. Information from London is that Britain will pay the 90-million- dollar cost of constructing the sites and the United States, in, addition to providing the weapons, will furnish Air Force crews to man the sites initially. Later the Royal Air Force will take over the British bases. RAF crews are now in this country training on the Thor and Jupiter. Hydrogen warheads for the mis- siles will be stockpiled at the bases but they will remain under Ameri- can control. Wartime firing of the missiles, it is understood, would be by mutual agreement of the United States and the host country. New Technic' Staff Named INew editors and staff for the Michigan State Fair Grounds in Detroit to attract the Olym- pic Games. It is widely be- lieved the United States will host the 1964 Games. Four Seek Games Among the four cities in this country who want to host the Games, Chicago, Los Angeles, Philadelphia and Detroit, the lat- ter is considered to have the best chances. Los Angeles hosted the Games in 1932. Detroit is scheduled to open new hotel facilities before 1964. Sen. Swainson said he was hap- py to hear of Crisler's position and added it would be another incen- tive to bringing the Games to the state. Won't Abandon Plan He said he would not abandon his proposal for the stadium authority. His bill, which is now before the Legislature, calls for a $15 million revenue bond issue for the stadium which will be primarily for the Olympics. Crisler described Swainson's project as "something I would not invest in" and added "The only way it could be self-supporting would be if it hosted an event a day." Lions, Tigers Uninterested Officials of the Detroit Lions and Tigers have shown little in- terest in moving their home from the 54,000 seat Briggs Stadium to the proposed new site. Crisler said that he had not been approached by Swainson on this matter and added: "Besides, it is still a long way off." The University's facilities would include the Stadium, Ferry Field and Yost Field House. J-Hop Future Under Study By Committee By MURRAY FEWELL The future of J-Hop continues to be a question mark as members of Student Government Council's Finance Committee are hashing over problems of the 1958 dance. Meanwhile J-Hop Central Com- mittee members are attempting to compile 'a complete financial re- port for the dance, according to General Chairman, Jim Cham- pion, '59. Losing money for the second straight year, the all - campus dance sold 598 tickets. Champion has said that 900 sales were need- ed to break even. On this basis the deficit is expected to reach $2,200. SGC Paid Last Year Last year's deficit of $500 was made up by SGC. Whether this year's debt will be made up by the council is one of the questions up for considera- tion by SGC. A traditional affair at the Uni- versity, J-Hop was first begun on Feb. 17, 1877 when 20 couples at- tended. Since that time J-Hop has continued to be one of the U.S., British Aid Accepted'...

Buildings at 712 N. Fourth Ave. and 630 Hiscock St. were the locations of the other fires. The Chi Psi headquarters at 1705 Washtenaw St. reported a fire in the upper stories at 6:26 p.m., which was not put out until 7:35 p.m. Fire Reported Four Minutes Later Four minutes later an alarm was reported at the Fourth Avenue address. Approximately an hour was needed to extinguish this fire also. Sparks from plumbers' blowtorches, being used to thaw frozen water pipes, apparently caused both fires, firemen said. The sparks caught and burst into flames after the plumbers had left.
