BONN, Germany (AR) - Yugo-
slavia called the West's hand on
the German unity issues yester-
day.
The Foreign Office announced
President Tito's Red regime plans
to recognize 'Communist East
Germany today.
It was a slap in the face for
the Bonn Republic and a chal-
lenge to the solid front the West-
ern powers have built up outside
the Soviet bloc against diplomatic
ties with Premier Otto Grote-
wohl's Moscow-allied government.
A formal break threatened in
relatidns between Belgrade and
Bonn.
Chancellor Konrad Adenauer's
West German government has de-
clared it will cut diplomatic links
with any nation exchanging en-
voys with the Red rulers of the 18
million East Germans.
Adenauer's government, which
recently granted a 300-million
dollar, 99-year loan to Yugoslavia
and agreed to pay 60,million dol-
lars in war reparations, recognizes
only the Soviet Union among na-
tions having diplomatic ties with
East Germany.

went came after- a four-hour'
meeting between Dusan Kveder,
Belgrade's ambassador to Bonn,
and Deputy Foreign Minister

Pearson of Canada.
Awarded Nobel Prize
OSLO, NORWAY (A") - Lester B. Pearson, former Canadian for-
eign secretary, has been awarded the 1957 Nobel Peace Prize.
The prize amounts to $40,275.
In the United Nations last fall Pearson spearheaded a campaign
to bring peace totthe Middle East, where Britain and France had
joined Israel in an attack on Egypt.
Largely as a result of Pearson's activity a UN emergency force
was organized to separate the belligerents. This force still is on duty
in the Gaza area.

tions which brought the Conservative Party to power in Canada,

south of the Turkish border, ap-

by surprise.
One Turkish source said about
5,000 Egyptians may have been
involved.
Estimates in Washington and
London were lower, ranging from
1,000 to 1,600.
Reports indicated most of the
men are in armored units.
Political circles said the Foreign
Ministry's reluctance to comment
is due primarily to the fact it has
as yet received no reports from
its own representatives on the
situation.
Thus, in this moderate Ankara
view, "some military expeditions"
between these countries might be
normal.

Bids Approved
Bids totalling $350,600 for ex-
pansion of the North Campus wa-
ter system were approved by City
Council last night.
Construction of the system will
begin today, according to Guy C.
Larcom, Jr., city administrator.
The work is expected to be com-
pleted by August, 1958.
A possible re-routing of United
States Highway No. 23 was re-
ferred to the council's working
committee. The revision would
move the route from Washtenaw
to Stadium and Main Streets, tak-
ing traffic away from the North
Campus and women's residence
areas.
A letter from Robert W. Burgess,
director of the Bureau of the Cen-
sus, was read at the meeting.
The letter stated that the Bu-
reau had not made a final decision
.in regard to counting students as
residents of college towns in the
next census. but was inclined to
do so again. This would increase
tax revenus to the city.
A local cab company's complaint
that students were causing diffi-

The current Asian Flu epidemic reached a new high on campus
yesterday according to Dr. Morley Beckett, Health Service Director.
For the first time since the epidemic began over a week ago a
few infirmary patients were transferred to University Hospital to
afford more space in Health Service Infirmary.
Dr. Beckett said that this measure was set up with the hospital-
weeks ago in event that Health Service became too crowded to handle
all students in need of infirmary treatment. "It is nip and tuck for
beds," he added.
