(From The Associated Press) M.D.'s Offer Contradictory Views On Braddock Hand NEW YOtK, Aug. 18.-(P)-A battery of physicians peered at Jimmy Braddock'es ailing left hand today and then offered such contradictory testimony as to whether the injury was serious enough to warrant postponement of the heavyweight champion's 15-round title defense against Max Schmeling next month. The New York State Athletic Com- mission ordered Jimmy to con- sult a "prominent bone special- ist" and report the outcome next Tuesday. Indications tonight were that the bout would not be held in September. Jimmy Johnston, boxing director of Madison Square Garde, said the fight wouldsbe held next May in the event a postponement became necessary. Joe Gould, B'raddock's little manager, insisted he didn't care what the Commission decides on Tuesday. As far as he is con- cerned Braddock will not fight again this year. Found Guilty Of Driving After License Is Revoked MARQUETTE, Aug. 18.-(/P)- Charged with driving an auto- mobile after his license had been revoked following conviction for operating a car while intoxicat- ed, John J. Donahue, of Ishpe- mig, was found guilty by a jury in Municipal Court here this after'noon. It was the first case of its kind in the Marquette court Municipal Judge Ralph R. Eld- redge ordered Donahue to spend two days in the county jail, man- datory under the state law, and fined him $10 and costs. American Olympic Stars Leave Berlin For Home BERLIN, Aug. 18.---P)-Amer- ica's Olympic athletes broke camp in the Olympic Village to- day and started for Hamburg from where they sail for New York tomorrow in the S.S. Presi- dent Roosevelt. German Olympic officials ga- thered at the village to see the team off and followed the Amer- icain contingent to the railway station. The officials voiced ap- preciation of America's partici- pation in the games and hoped for a "happy'reunion" at Tokyo in 1940. Then a band played the Star Spangled Banner, and the ath- letes pulled down the Stars and Stripes and left for the station. Meanwhile the rest of the squad was scattered over Europe, some in the Scandinavian coun- tries, others in England and va- rious parts of Germany. The team will sail in two groups, one on the President Roosevelt to- morrow and the other on the Manhattan Aug. 26. Hank Greenberg Going Back To N. Y. And Wait DETROIT, Aug. 18.-A)- Hank Greenberg, whose twice- broken wrist has kept him from playing first base for the Tigers since April 29, packed up today and said 'he was "going back home to New York and wait for the next season to come around." The lanky star, voted the most valuable player in the American League last year, said he had giyen up hope of playing any more this season and was "retir- ing" at the suggestion of Walter 0. Briggs, owner of the Tigers. "Until today I thought there was still a chance I might play in one or two of. the September games," Hank said. "But Mr. Briggs doesn't want me to risk any chances with my wrist." Youngster's Courage Saves Life Of Two Children BOSTON, Aug. 18.-(IP)-Thir- teen-year-old John O'Grady's courage and presence of mind saved two younger children from probable death by fire and pre- vented his home from being de- stroyed today. The youngster fought his way through acrid smoke to the cellar of his house and rescued Walter Mackav. five, and Harnld Rrnwn- -Associated Press PThoto Designed to aid Michigan in its everlasting war on disease, WPA workmen constructed this building to house the State Board of Health's biological and diagnostic laboratories at the board's farm, near Lansing. Part of a WPA general improvement program there, the building will house, in addition to health research facilities, laboratories for the State Department of Agriculture and the State Highway Department. A small penthouse atop the building will be used for tetanus investigations. Tigers Divide Double-Header With. Brownies St. Louis Wins In Opener As Elden Auker Pitches Winning Game In Finale (Continued from Page 1) doubled. Al Simmons beat out a high bounder and Owen singled, the first putout being registered as Simmons tried to take third on the play and was thrown out. Liebhardt came in to retire the side without further scoring. Roxie Lawson, starting for the Tigers, couldn't hold the lead, as the Browns made use of three singles, three walks, a wild pitch and a force out to knot the count in the second inning. Lawson was taken out when Bell doubled to open the third and Vic Sorrell held St. Louis scoreleg until the eighth. The Tigers meanwhile grabbed the lead again with Goslin's home run in the fifth off Jack Knott, and suc- cessive singles by Goslin and Sim- mons, Robell's walk and Hayworth's long fly in the seventh. The Browns broke up the ball game in the eighth, battering Sorrell for six hits including Solters' triple, to score six runs. Schoolboy Rowe's ,pinch single in the ninth scoring Owen merely cut down the St. Louis lead. Walker, Gelringer, Goslin and Simmons all singled, and Owen doubled to start the second game and sent Hogsett to the showers for the second time. Liebhardt walked Ro- gell purposely, passed Hayworth to force in a run, and then Auker brought all three runners in with a triple to left center. Rogell's double, and singles by Hayworth, Walker and Parker brought in two more runs in the third, and a walk, Gehringer's double and Bema's error allowed Parker to score with the tenth run in the fifth. With a ten-run lead, Auker was touched for three runs bythe Browns in the fifth. Walker's error on ot- tomley's line drive was followed by Hemsley's double, a walk to Bejma, pitch-hittr Coleman's single and a single by Lary. Welsh Flays Record Of Gov._Fitzgerald (Continued rrom Page 6) sion, in charge of the workmen's compensation laws of the state. The candidate, who spoke through an amplification system from the south steps of the County Building after an address in Ypsilanti, was introduced by former Gov. William A. Comstock of Ann Arbor, who called him "a regular organization man." "From 1920 on, when I first met George in campaigning, we've been talking exactly the same things from the platform," Comstock said. "We both belong to that group which for want of a better name have been called Progressives. "By a regular organization man I mean the type of candidate who does i not begin to think when he gets into office that he is appointed by God and not elected by the people. A lot of our family troubles in the Democratic party have been caused by swelled heads. The minute a man begins to think he is the boss of the party, his days are numbered."' Welsh was followed on the pro- gram by Prof. John H. Muyskens of the speech department, Democratic candidate for United States Senator, who announced his endorsement of * * * * Work Near Completion OnState's New WPA Biological Laboratory 0.) Health Department To Be Housed In New Research BuildingAtLansing (Special To The Daily) LANSING, Aug. 18.-Work on the new biological and diagnostic labora- tory being constructed here by the Works Progress Administration under the sponsorship of the State Depart- ment of Health, is more than 90 per cent completed. To make it ready for occupancy, there remains only the installation of elevators, plumbing, electrical fix- tures and the elaborate air condition- ing facilities, Harry L. Pierson, state WPA administrator, has announced. Located four miles northeast of Lansing on a tract of state-owned land assigned to the Department of Health, the brick and concrete three- story structure is 100 feet wide and 100 feet long, surmounted by a 24 by ,24-foot penthouse intended spe- cifically for investigation and con- trol of tetanus technique. The basement will not only provide storage rooms, but will house special heating furnaces and air-condition- ing equipment designed to provide automatically the exactly right de- grees of temperature for experimental work with serums to control disease outbreaks. All laboratory agencies maintained by the state, in addition to those of the Health Department, will be housed in the building. Among them will be that of the Department of Agriculture, which makes extensive technical examination of seed for germination and purity, of fertilizer for chemical balance, and of com- mercial stock foods and remedies. The State Highway Department also will have facilities to test various ma- The LENS By ROBERT L. GACH WESTON TRICKS Many people fail to realize that the Weston or any similar meter can be used in many ways. The least used and. probably the most impor- tant stunt is that of taking a read- ing by comparison. When you are in dim light and the meter fails to read enough to allow its use, try a piece of white paper, if the meter will give a reading of the light re- flected from the paper, the exposure can be computed if you find the reflecting power of the paper and the surface to be photographed. Find a surface similar to your subject that is in light bright enough to effect the meter, and take a reading on it and also on the paper, then if you find the ratio between these two readings it is a simple matter to compute the exposure when the read- ing is taken on the paper in a dark spot. If you want to shoot a subject that is too bright and the meter flies off scale, try covering part of the cell. With the cell partly covered the meter will read low. Find the ratio between the readings with the cell covered and uncovered when point- ing it at something that does not read off scale. Then you can com- pute the exposure of your bright sub- ject when the reading is taken with the cell covered. A stunt that to my knowledge has not been. tried, but it seems like a logical one, is to use some type of a lirchl rc.tl -:ri - -nfin ccfn nr terials entering into road construc- tion. The most important work to be done, however, will be the conserva- tion of public health, especially in the control and prevention of period- ical outbreaks of typhoid fever, smallpox, diphtheria, tetanus, menin- gitis, scarlet fever and other com- municable diseases. Control methods depend largely on the development >f serums, the base of which, for nost diseases, is blood drawn from the veins of horses. To provide the blood, a herd of 76 horses is main- tained under the most careful hy- gienic conditions. Dr. C. C. Young, head of the laboratory department of the State Board of Health which makes more than 350,000 diagnostic tests a year, asserts that the state is now in the forefront of all health agencies in the nation. It is one of the few states licensed by the Federal government to manufacture serums. With up-to-the-minute laboratory facilities Dr. Young sees the con- summation of a program started at the close of the World War, based on the principle of prevention and control of disease in every community before it gains a foothold rather than curative work after an epidemic has started. In this work, he says, the WPA has been the deciding factor in what he declares is the most forward health step in recent years, advancing the state's program a decade. The original WPA allotment called for $114,518 and a sponsor's share of $7,629. However, an additional 10 per cent has been allowed from Federal funds to compensate for in- creased wage allowances granted to workmen. VOL.
