  We study five dimensional non critical type 0 string theory and its
correspondence to non supersymmetric Yang Mills theory in four dimensions. We
solve the equations of motion of the low energy effective action and identify a
class of solutions that translates into a confining behavior in the IR region
of the dual gauge theories. In particular we identify a setup which is dual to
pure SU(N) Yang-Mills theory. Possible flows of the solutions to the UV region
are discussed. The validity of the solutions and potential sub-leading string
corrections are also discussed.
