THE MICHIGAN DAILY l a rir a1a trlL+w THE MIC~c~N 1aTX.V rIAUL ISEVEN~ T I Prosecutor MChrea, eriff Wilcox Get Prison Sentences DETROIT, May 14.-(AP)-Once the" aggressive Prosecutor of Wayne County, Duncan C. McCrea heard himself sentenced today to four and a half to five years in prison for vice and gambling conspiracy and took' it as a man stunned. The former prosecutor, who sank into a chair at the verdict, was sent- enced by Circuit Judge Earl C. Pugs- ley along with 23 alleged co-bonspira- tors accused of buying and selling "protection" for the gamblers and brothel keepers. Of the 24 defendants McCrea and former Sheriff Thomas C. Wilcox,x along with Bertha Malone, alias Johnson, named as a Hamtramck vice resort operator, received the heaviest sentences-all four and a half to five years imprisonment and a $2,000 fine. Calling McCrea, thrice - elected1 county prosecutor, and Wilcox, the Grant Whipple Is Named Dinner Party Chairman Grant Whipple, '42E, treasurer of1 the Westminster Student Guild of the First Presbyterian Church, has been appointed chairman of the formal{ dinner party to be held at 7:00 p.m. Friday in the social hall of the church. Other committee members include:1 John Dean, '43, reservations chair- man; Avice Rye, '43, decorations chairman; Peg Jeffers, '44, programj chairman; and Jack Weigel, '41E, dinner chairman. "most serious offenders," Judge Pug- sley said they "tolerated and encour- aged" violations of the law in return for "many thousands of dollars in their betrayal of the public confi- dence." The State charged that McCrea got more than $100;00 and Wilcox $37,000 in "protection'money." Judge Pugsley denounced Miss Ma-_ lone as "a disgrace" and "not to be tolerated in any decent society." When McCrea recovered comgpos- ure, lie announced he would appeal and claimed "complete innocence.'' He said "the future will justify my statement." Before court adjourned he moved for a new trial. "I am crushed," said Wilcox, "this thing has crushed me." Will Seek New Trial Wilcox also said he would seek a new trial and, if denied, would ap-' peal. Several other defendants pre- pared to ask another trial. Sentences for other principal de- fendants included two to five years and $1,000 fines for Alfred J. Garska, former president of Grosse Pointe Park, and Michael Figurski, Ham- tramck politician. Carl J. Staebler, chief clerk under Wilcox, was given three to five years and Benjamin Landsburg, former chief of police at Inurter, one to five years and a $1,000 fine. At the State's request the court deferred sentencing of Harry Col- burn, chief investigator for McCrea. Colburn, originally a defendant,, changed his plea to guilty and testi- fied against his former superior. Zuiehike Elected Head Of Phi Lambda Epsilon Carl W.

In the event of stomach distress, Dr. Forsythe warned emphatically against taking a physic without a physician's advice because of 'the ser- ious damage that can be done to an affecied appendix. A trip to the Health Service is the wisest course. Mortality from acute appendicitis is much greater among cases of postponement than with immediate operation. Prompt treatment is ex- ceedingly important. Last year approximately 16,000 'deaths resulted from appendicitis cases in the United States. Most of these fatalities were, unnecessary and could have been avoided by prompt medical attention, Dr. Forsythe ex- plained.
