The warrants were issued, Prose-
cutor Joseph said, "for unlawfully;
assembling with intent to damage
property."
'hree hundred "John Doe" war-
rants for strikers suspected of ac-
tively participating in the riot were
also issued, only to be pigeon-holed
at Governor Murphy's suggestion.
At a mass meeting of the U.A.W.
tonight, Powers Hapgood, one of the
chief organizers of the CIO, exhorted
more than 300 union men to "keep
up the battle, even though the con-
ference tomorrow fails to settle the
strike.
"If money is necessary to prolong
the strike until it is won, you can
safely count on the CIO to provide
everything necessary," he stated.
National Guardsman Drunk
"Corporations recognize one thing,'
and one thing only," he maintained,
"and that is power. We will be re-
spected only in proportion to the
power we possess." 1
Following his speech, Genora John-
son, 23 years old, a mother of two
children, was introduced as "the,
modern Joan of Arc," who "fought
with the best of them" at the riot
Monday night. Outside in the cor-
ridor of the union headquarters, two
national guardsmen were observed,1
one of them obviously drunk, the lat-

piled four or five high showed the
mercilessness with which the govern-'
ment soldiers were stamping out'
fascists, monarchists and other sus-
pects in Madrid, Mrs. Green declared.
It was not long before soldiers came
around to demand the Green's auto-
mobile. They were told by Green
that the keys were at the United
States embassy and that if they took
the car it would be against his will.
They ripped the top, cut holes in the
seats, and disconnected the wiring
when they heard this and in several
days came back and towed the car
away, Mrs. Green declared.
As Franco's forces approached Ma-
drid's water reservoirs, the populace
became apprehensive over the loss of
their water supply, and Mrs. Green
added that milk, either canned or
fresh, had been exhausted before
they left.
Mrs. Green, admittedly neither a
politician nor military strategist, de-
clared that she was surprised at the
duration of what had seemed to her
a minor squabble. She expressed the
belief that the combination of weath-
er and Russians might prove suffi-
cient to impede Franco's drive. The
Moors who are crack soldiers in
Franco's forces are not accustomed to
the cold weather they are now suf-
fering, Mrs. Green explained.

ter was muttering incoherent words
of allegiance to the union cause.
From which the rioting occurred
late Monday at Fisher Body Plant No.
2, 400 men have refused to move since
Dec. 30. Company police pulled down
a ladder used by the strikers to go in
and out of the building, shut off the
plant's heat and water supply and
held up a truck bringing food to
sit-down kitchens.
Engage In Battle
Strikers came from the building,
argued with the company officials
and finally engaged in hand to hand
battle with them in an ecort to gain
possession of the food stuffs on the
truck. At this point, Flint city po-
lice, who had been sitting on a bridge
across the Flint River, some 100 yards
away, took a hand, using tear and
poison gas, and rifles in addition to
night sticks.
Directed by the Ruethers and
Travis from a sound truck outside
the plants, the strikers advanced,
pushing back the police, who, when
the wind changed, were engulfed in
their own gas discharges. Before it
ended, 23 strikers and police were
injured and four police cars were
wrecked and stripped.
Wounded Sent to Hospital
The wounded strikers were sent to'
the hospital and, as soon as they
were released, arrested and taken to
the closely-guarded county jail. All
persons, with the exception of one
party of newspapermen, were refused
admittance to the jail during the day.
Approximately 2,500 men are sit-
ting down in the strike, which, the
strike committee contends, was
caused first because of discrimina-
tion against union men and second
because of what is termed an ex-
cessive speed-up. About 2,000 men
are holding plant number one, where,
to date, all has been peaceful.
An undetermined minority of Flint
automobile workers are actually
members of the union, it is evident,
but it has proved impossible to as-
certain what percentage of non-
union men are in sympathy with the
sit-downers. The strike committee
claims it has the backing of "prac-
tically all" Flint workers., while the
Flint Alliance, an organization set-
up this week to "end this trouble as
soon as possible" holds that but a
few of the men not sitting down in
the plants are sympathetic to con-
tinution of the industrial warefare.
26,000 With Alliance
The strikers accuse the Alliance
of being backed by General Motors,
although officials of that body deny
the allegation. They say that
"roughly 26,000 out of 43,000 work-
ers" are with them.
The strike committee made it clear,
however, that only recognition of the
UAW as the sole General Motors bar-
gaining organization-the objective
of Homer Martin-or an order from
Martin, John Lewis, CIO head, or
President Roosevelt, will terminate
their strike "if we have to stick it out
the rest of the year."

This picture, taken at the height of the automotive strikes in flint, in which 14 men; were shot and a
score more injured otherwise, shows strikers trying to get through the clouds of tear gas laid by the police.
The riots resulted in an emergency mobilization of several units of Michigan's National Guard by Gov. Frank
Murphy.
Student Audiences Better Than
Given Credit, Stevens Believes
Director Describes Ways
Of Presenting Globe
Theatre Plays
By ELSIE ROXBOROUGH
College audiences aren't half as
bad as is popularly believed accord-
ing to T. W. Stevens, director of the
Globe Theatre which is presenting
four condensed versions of Eliza-
bethan plays Saturday, Jan. 16, at the
Lydia Mendelssohn theatre.
"There is no difference between a
college audience and a good general
audience," Mr. Stevens said, "and in
some places we have found the college
audiences best."
Mr. Stevens then recalled with no
small amount of humour the
Theatre's last experience with a col-
lege audience in Iowa where the play-
ers discovered themselves in a huge
gymnasium seating three thousand
with several hundred spectators hid-
den completely behind the platform.
Acted Splendidly
"They acted splendidly, though,"
Mr. Stevens remembered.
"There wasn't a sound throughout!
the performance. They treated it as
though it were a radio broadcast,"
this august director said.
Mr. Stevens then narrated the
group's progress from Iowa which
included a stormy journey culminat-1
ing in being snowbound in Nebraska.
It seems that they were due at the
performance at 8:30 p.m. only to
arrive on the scene at 12:30 a.m. to
discover that the audience had de-
parted at nine with instructions to
return the next day for a matinee.
Although the company has eliminat-
ed properties as much as possible,
and has done 18 plays using simply!
one stairway and one center door,
they have been particular about using
lights for nightfall. This time they
were playing "Hamlet" and the ghost
objected vigorously.
Sun In Eyes
"I can't play a ghost with the sun
in my eyes," he declared as the re-
flection on the piles of snow outside
afforded brilliant illumination.
However, Mr. Stevens assured the
"Ghost" that Shakespeare had often
done the same play with the sun full
in his eyes, bringing about a discus-
sion of the structure of the Globe
Theatre itself. Documentary evi-
.dence was scant for the true design
of this famous building.
"The real document is the whole,
body of Elizabethan plays taken in
their earlier edition," Mr. Stevens
explained. "If a stage will work with
these the stage must be right because
the book can't be wrong," he avowed.
The Globe Theatre actors have
played 5,000 performances to a pay-
ing clientele of two million people,
Mr. Stevens said. Their apparent'
success with Shakespeare he attribut-
ed to the cutting of the versions,
based upon obscure and irrelevant
passages. In Marlowe's "Dr. Faus-
tus," appearing on the Ann Arbor
card. Mr. Stevens confessed he had
the most trouble with his women
members. Each one of them wanted
to play the part of "Helen of Troy,"
to be referred to as "the face that
launched a thousand ships!"
Add Math To Fish,
Result Is Statistics,
Math Club Will See
Mathematics will go "fishy" to-
night, and that's no tall story either.
According to William R. Eschmey-
er, of the University Museums, and
Prof. John D. Elder of the mathema-
tics department, the fish will become
tangled with numbers, the result be-
ing a compilation of statistics for the
Institute of Fisheries Research. All
this will take place at a meeting of
the Junior Mathematical Group, 8
p.m. today in Room 3201 Angell
Hall.
These statistics, the collection of
which is a mathematical problem,
will be accomplished on the Hollerith
sorting machines in the basement of
Angell Hall, where the meeting will
adjourn for the second half of the
program.
Turn Thy Cheek'
Edict Ill-Received
MARIETTA, O., Jan. 13.-OP)-
Some Marietta College students used
paint and placards today to express
disapproval of a "turn the other
cheek" edict laid down for athletes
by the administrative council.
The regulation decreed that a pio-
neer athlete found guilty of hitting
an opponent, whether justified or
not, should be declared ineligible
in that sport for the remainder of
the season. A second offense, the
council said, would result in all-time
ineligibility in all sports.
Today found the sidewalks and li-
brary adorned:
"No sluggin'; just huggin'."
"Turn thy cheek."

to enhance the charm
of your living room
The new 3-light lamps accomplish a twofold purpose: They
provide beauty for your living room, introducing a fresh and
charming decorative note, and causing your drapes and
furniture and pictures to glow with new life and color. But
more important, (2) they serve as a tonic to tired eyes,
guarding against strain and headache, against the tense
lines that are etched prematurely in young faces through
reading under poor light. These lamps are no substitute
for the services of your eyesight specialist: You should see
him regularly once a year. But a 3-light lamp will insure
safe, adequate illumination for your home . . . lighting far
superior to that furnished by your present lamps.
Under the modern standards of lighting, probably
ALL YOUR LAMPS are out-of-date! Stop in and j
see the new 3-light lamps today .. . and ask about
the difference they make in your home lighting.
THE NEW
3-IGHT
LAMPS
are available in a
wide selection of
attractive styles,
reasonably priced.
