XLIV No. 4 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, SEPT. 28, 1933 m U PRICE FIVE CENTS Indiana Calls Out Militia In Convict Hunt 2,000 Inmates Of Prison Are Grilled About Long Plotted Jailbreak Searchers Advised To 'Shoot To Kill' Shot In Riot Clerk Who Promptly Orders Is i t i j Failed To Act On Fugitives' Near Death MICHIGAN CITY, Ind., Sept. 27 -(IP)-Two hundred National Guardsmen were mobilized in Indi- ana's "war zone" tonight to assist hundreds of police and citizens in hunting down 10 escaped killers and robbers from the state penitentiary. They were sent by automobile with machine guns, rifles and gas bombs into a region near Chesterton, Ind., 25 miles to the southeast, where five of the desperadoes were last seen. With the convicts, or perhaps slain, was Sheriff Charles Neel, kidnaped by them as they fled the prison. There was an atmosphere of ten- sity at the prison. Every one of the 2,000 inmates was being questioned about the long-plotted break. Search for Weapons A cell-by-cell search for weapons was carried out. The vigil of guards was doubled over the corridors through which the escaping prison- ers walked yesterday with bundles of shirts from the prison shop conceal- ing pistols, knives, and clubs in their hands. Finley P. Carson, a clerk shot in the hip and abdomen when he failed to obey an order promptly, was re- ported in danger of death. A murder charge in the event Car- son died, together with charges of kidnaping Neel and two other mo- torists whose automobiles were com- mandeered, prison officials said, probably would make the escaped convicts doubly dangerous. Aunt Men, in Woods The search centered about a wood-, ed area five miles south of Chester- ton; where the fugitives fled with their captive after wrecking an auto- mobile stolen from Virgil Spanier, a farmer. The sheriff's car previously had been wrecked. Vigilance over highways and a railroad line led State and local po- lice to believe that the convicts could scarcely have escaped from the area. GUARDS WATCHFUL PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 27-(RP) - With 68 convicts segregated for judgment, Pennsylvania's Eastern Penitentiary returned to normal to- day after one of the worst riots in its century of history. But in the center house, from which rows of cells radiate like the spokes of a wheel, guards and state troopers waited for any recurrence of the outbreak which they, aided by 400 Philadelphia police and fire- men, quelled early today. . Six men, including the warden and a chaplain, were injured seriously as prisoners raged in their cells, set mattresses - afire and attacked offi- cers who tried to enter the cells to extinguish the flames. Machine guns, rifles and tear gas bombs were sent to the scene, but not one was fired. The sobering ef- fects of high-pressure streams from fire hose and the dulling thud of riot sticks took the fight out of the con- victs. "This trouble has been going on for some time because of the anti- quated building, lack of space and shortage of guards," Warden Her- bert J. Smith declared. "We have three or four men in every cell that should have only two." -Associated Press Photo When he hesitated in obeying the commands of escaping convicts, Fin- ley P.. Carson (above), clerk in the office of the Indiana State Prison, was shot twice. He is reported in, danger of death. 30-Hour Week ]Demanded 'By Union Workers Plan To Take Advantage Of Opportunities Under National Recovery Act WASHINGTON, Sept. 27.-(1)- Unionized workers started a move- ment today to take full advantage of opportunities allowed them under the recovery act, and demanded of- ficially, through the American Fed-; eration of Labor, that forthcoming NRA codes limit their hours on the job to a 30-hour week. Two meetings preparatory to the federation convention next week were under way-the metal and building trades departments. Official reports of both said a work week longer than 30 hours would not re-employ the jobless. Officers of the union label trades department, which begins its convention tomorrow, said similar recommendations would be made to that group. Resolutions already being drafted suggest that each of these trades cov- ering hundreds of thousands of work- ers inform the federation of their desire for a 30-hour code week. Of- ficers of all three trades agreed these resolutions would top their proposals to the federation convention begin- ning Monday. Urschel Cash Recovered By United States COLEMAN, Tex., Sept. 27.-()- From a cotton patch Federal agents today dug up $73,250 of the Charles F. Urschel ransom money buried by George "Machine Gun" Kelly, who is under arrest at Memphis. Acting on an unrevealed tip, the agents went to the farm home of Cass Coleman, an uncle of Kelly's wife, and arrested Coleman. Then they went directly to a lone mesquite tree in the middle of a cotton patch a half mile from the farmhouse and began digging. In one hole they found a thermos jug containing $46,000 in $20 bills neatly stacked. In another nearby they came upon a molasses can which contained the rest of the money. Jhack Sharkey Loses Battle To Loughran Crowd Of 10,000 Stunned As Philadelphian Scores Near Knockout In Tenth Deciding Vote Cast By Referee Murphy Loughran Gains Revenge For Three-Round Defeat Four Years Ago BAKER FIELD, PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 27.--(P)-The revenge that Tommy Loughran has lived for through four troublesome years came sweetly to him tonight as he jabbed out a 15-round decision over fading Jack Sharkey and even managed to batter to the floor the man who knocked him out in three rounds in 1929. Before a home crowd of no more than 10,000, the fleet Philadelphian courageously stood up under a ter- rific bombardment, boxed his way out of one trying moment after an- other, and then stunned the gather- ing by dropping Sharkey to his knees in the tenth with a right-hand smash to the chin. In fact it was this amazing touch, probably the hardest Loughran- famed for anything but his hitting -ever delivered, that gave Tommy the decision. The two judges, A. L, Boice and Herman Weingert, were divided in their opinions, the first voting for Sharkey, the second for Loughran. Referee "Spud" Murphy scored the rounds evenly, giving Loughran six, Sharkey six, and call- ing three even, but his deciding vote was for Loughran because of the knockdown. It was a far more thrilling duel than their first meeting in .the Yan- kee Stadium four years ago when a chance at the heavyweight cham- pionship hung in the balance. Shar- key caught Loughran in a corner in the third round that night and felled him with an overhand right to the temple that ended the fight. But tonight a 31-year-old Lough- ran had the guile to evade an iden- tical punch in almost the same mo- ment of the same round in the cor- responding corner, the endurance to stand up under Sharkey's terrific body batterings, and the courage to keep going after the sailor's first real punch, a left hook to the head, opened a gash in his right eyebrow. Loughran's margin was desperate- ly close and many of the critics, counting the astonishing knockdown merely as an incident in one round, gave Sharkey an edge over the route. Commerce Halted As Cubans Protest HAVANA, Sept. 27.-(P)-Com- merce throughout Cuba came to a standstill tonight as thousands of members and sympathizer~of the va- rious Spanish regional societies reg- istered public protest against a de- cree of the Grau San Martin gov- ernment. Meanwhile, the labor situation in several sections of the island became more acute. A six-hour general strike in Havana was scheduled for Fri- day. Communists were active in some places, new demands were made by strikers at others and unconfirmed reports of a new revolutionary out- break were received. Ring' Lardner Is Recalled As Daily Contributor In '16 Ringold Wilmer "Ring" Lardner died Monday night. His death is felt everywhere in the world of those devotees of his style of writing-writ- ing that caught its intended spirit in a way that it is given to few men to do. Little things remind The Michigan Daily of Ring Lardner. An old copy of "Who's Who" in The Daily's mod- est library bears his name. A former managing editor was his nephew. But it remained for Harold Charles Le- Baron Jackson, '19, to tell it prop- erly. Jackson is author of the column, "Looking in on Detroit," which ap- pears daily in the Detroit News. His column Wednesday night paid mod- est tribute to Ring Lardner in a way that few extended eulogies could have done: "Please mister, (the column said) can I put a piece in your paper?" I looked up from the night editor's desk of The Michigan Daily, back in '16, to see a lean serious face, shaded by a slanted felt hat, staring down at me. "Why, er," said I, "let's see it." A slender hand stretched me a sheet of copy paper. "I've al- ways wanted," said the man's voice, "to put a piece in a paper, and you look kind-hearted and maybe you'll print it. "It," he mumbled, "is kind of a poem." A poem! I had my mouth all open to tell this citizen to go gal- loping back into the night and take his pretty poem with him. Until-I caught the first line. It's a long time ago now. I can't re- member that verse at all. But it was light and gay and funny. And I asked: "Who are you?" "Well," he said, "my first name's Ringold and my second name's Wilmer and my last name's Lardner and mostly the boys call me 'Ring.'" For a good many years the late Ring Lardner took a foot- ball trip each fall with the Ann Arbor delegation to some import- ant out-of-town game; and each year he contributed a piece to The Michigan Daily. A circum- stance that used to cause har- ried night editors to shout, in May, "Well, anyway, we'll have one story worth printing, next fall, when Ring Lardner comes to town." Gargoyle Will Use New Type Of Photograph Offer Year's Subscription To All Women Selling 15 Subscriptions Detroit Paper And Couzens Continue War Free Press Says That State Senator Was Motivated By Hate And Revenge Grand Jury Probe Precipitates Clash Senator's Wife Withdrew Account Prior To Crash, Witness Testifies DETROIT, Sept. 27.-()-An open controversy between the Detroit Free Press and Senator James Couzens (Rep., Mich.), an outspoken critic of the executives of Detroit's closed na- tional banks, flared up tonight with the Free Press quoting the senator as saying he was motivated by "hate" and a desire for 'revenge"' against the bankers. The senator is quoted as saying in an interview that "I know I'm through politically," but that "I am out to get revenge and I will never rest until I get even with those - - - who lied about me and my dear wife." At his Birmingham home, Senator Couzens called these statements "lies" and said the Free Press could not prove any such ridiculous state- ments." He said that in an interview with a Free Press representative on Sept. 14 he said he was in the Sen- ate until 1937 and that "between now and then I intend to decide what my future will be." Denying emphatically that his mo- tive in continued criticism of former Detroit banking methods were hate or revenge, he declared his sole pur- pose is to "correct an evil." He said he had never brought his wife into any controversy. He added that if the Free Press "wants to get into a per- sonal controversy, I am ready." During the long-continued grand jury investigation of the bank clos- ing that ended last week, one wit- ness testified that Mrs. Couzens had drawn most of her account from one of the banks just prior to the Mich- igan bank holiday last February. There was also repeated testimony that Senator Couzens' opposition to a reconstruction finance loan pre- cipitated the banking crisis. Faculty Endowment Fund Well Started The University of Michigan Club of New York City has successfully launched its Alumni Association ten- year program with the collection of $64,270.50gto date towards the per- manent faculty salary endowment fund, according to information re- ceived from the directors by T. Haw- ley Tapping, general secretary of the local Alumni Association. The sum already collected is only a small part of the $200,000 original- ly pledged in the campaign of the or- ganization which started in 1930. Mr. Tapping explained that the fund would be given to the Univer- sity. for the purpose of meeting the offers made to valuable faculty men by other institutions, thereby making it possible to raise the pay of these men beyond the limits of the budget. PUBLISHER DIES CLEVELAND, Sept. 27-(P)-El- bert Hall Baker, who, in his own words, liked "to see a paper striving to improve the community in which it is located," died last night at the age of 79, after 35 years of planning and building for the Cleveland Plain Dealer and the city itself. Will Teach In Conflict Of Laws A former student in the Law School here, Prof. H. E. Yntema, who also received a Rhodes Scholarship while at the University and later re- turned as an instructor in political science, has been engaged as visit- ing professor in the Law School for the current year. He will give a course in Conflict of Laws, a field in which he has gained high recogni- tion. Professor Yntema, who was a member of the faculty of the Johns Hopkins Institute of Legal Research until the dissolution of the Institute, is a native of the State of Michigan and received the degree of A. B. at Hope College, in 1912. The following year he received the degree of A. M. and in 1919 the degree of Ph.D., from the University. He was a student in the Law School here during the years 1912-1914. Having won a Rhodes Scholarship in 1914, Professor Yntema became a student at Oxford University, and in 1917 he was given the degree of B. A. in Jurisprudence from that university. In 1921, after a year of graduate work at Harvard, he re- ceived the degree of S.J.D. from that institution. It was from 1917 to 1920 that Pro- fessor Yntema was an instructor in political science here. Then, from 1920 until 1923, he was lecturer in Roman Law and Comparative Juris- prudence at the Columbia University Law School and was Associate Pro- fessor of Roman Law for the six fol- lowing years, at the same institution. This position was followed by his work with the Johns Hopkins Insti- tute for Legal Research. His field of special interest in the law is described as Comparative Law, though during the current year he will place special emphasis upon Conflict of Laws. Registration Of Case Club Men To Start Soon Committee Appointed To Supervise Club's Work For Current Year Registration for the Case Clubs of the Law School, extra-curricular or- ganizations providing work in the analyzing, briefing and arguing of questions of law which arise upon hypothetical cases, will be held from 8:30 a. m. to 4:30 p. m. next Mon- day and Tuesday, in the first floor corridor of Hutchins Hall, according to an announcement issued by the faculty advisers of the Club. A committee to supervise the work of the Club for the current year has been appointed which includes three faculty members, Prof. James B. Waite, Prof. John E. Tracy, and Prof. William Blume; and a student com- mittee headed by Nathan Levy, '34L. Participation in the work offered by the Club, which is open to fresh- man and junior law students, is wholly voluntary and no credit is given for the work. However a new ruling, which goes into effet this year for the first time, provides that students who complete two year's work in the Case. Clubs in a satis- factory manner may, at their own option, be excused from part of the work in the Practice Court, which is normally required of all third- year students.

Will Meet At Dinner Final Plans Are Made To Welcome 300 Freshmen At BanquetTonight T. Hawley Tapping Will Give Address Yost, Kipke, And Heads Of Student Activities To Deliver speeches In anticipation, of a large and enthusiastic attendance, final plans for the annual Freshman Banquet to be held at 6:15 p. m. today in the Union have been made by those in charge. Appearing before the members of the class of 1937 at their first offi- cial class function, T. Hawley Tap- ping, general secretary of the Alumni Association, will deliver the principal address of the evening. Other speak- ers on the program include Fielding H. Yost, director of athletics, Harry G. Kipke, head football coach, Stan- ley Fay, '34, captain of the 1933 Var- sity football team, Robert E. Saltz- stein, '34, president of the Union, and Thomas K. Connellan, '34, man- aging editor of The Daily. Expect Crowd of 300 Reports yesterday indicated that there will be approximately 300 members of the first year class pres- ent for the get-together, which was interpreted by those in charge of the arrangements as an indication that the reduction of 25 per cent in the admission charge of former years has been enthusiastically taken ad- vantage of by freshmen men. Also included on the program will be a number of Michigan cheers led by Thomas B. Roberts, '34, head cheerleader, and a musical program by the Michigan Union Band. Toast- master for the evening Will be Ed- ward W. McCormick, '34, secretary of the Union. To Show Gridgraph Permission has been granted by the Interfraternity Council for freshmen to break dinner dates with frater- nities for this evening if they wish to attend the banquet, Bethel B. Kel- ley, '34, council president, said. The first official showing of the Gridgraph, newly perfected mechan- ism to follow the action of football games away from Ann Arbor, will also be held at this time. On a space representing a gridiron, it pictures the exact position of the ball on the field, the name of the player who carries it, downs, score, and other details. Tonight a part of the 1932 Mich- igan-Minnesota game at Minneapolis will be depicted as an exhibition, and during the coming football season it will be used for every out-of-town game Michigan plays, recording all moves at the exact time they occur. This will be the first time that stu- dents here have had an opportunity to view the Gridgraph, though it has been used with great success in other localities in past years. Reservations for the banquet may still be made today at the student offices in the Union. Former Law Student '37 { 1 I Men Course Extensive Fellowship Program . Is Planned By Alumnae Council Direct-color photography, a pro- cess of very recent development in the commercal field will be used in the new Gargoyle, the first issue of which is to appear Oct. 18, it was announced yesterday. Proofs have already been returned of a direct-color photograph taken recently of the northwest inside corner of the Law Quadrangle, and members of the staff describe it as an exceptionally good example of this kind of work. It will appear in the first issue. The Gargoyle will be the first col- lege magazine to use this kind of photography, it was said. A number of other pictures have also been planned for the first issue. Every Michigan woman selling 15 or more subscriptions to this year's Gargoyle will receive a free subscrip- tion for the year, according to W. F. Bohnsack, '34, business manager.

Reed, Detroit fireman convicted, of first-degree murder early last May, is to be retried on the same charge next Tuesday by Judge George W. Sample in Circuit Court here. Arrested on May 5, shortly after the discovery of his ex-wife's bullet- riddled body on the Dixboro Road, Reed remained mute for more than 80 hours before he confessed to the crime. Summing up the case in a hearing before Judge George W. Sample, Prosecutor Albert Rapp stated that there was no evidence to prove that the crime was pre-meditated. Reed, however, was sentenced to life im- prisonment in solitary confinement and hard labor at Marquette Prison. In appealing his case, Reed stated that the sheriff's officers -promised him clemency if he would confess. Reed will be defended at his new trial by a Detroit attorney.
