Workers Strike
ALBION, Mich., July 30.-R)-The
Gale Manufacturing Company's gray
iron foundry continued in operation
tonight despite a strike vote an-
nounced by union leaders.
Superintendent Karl H. Miller an-
nounced the plant would be open to
receive the day shift, which reports
at 6 a.m., but leaders of a strike
group of 40 men who picketed the
gates soon after the strike vote was
taken said they would not permit
non-striking workmen to enter.
Elmer Reynolds of Kalamazoo. an
organizer for the American Federa-
tion of Labor, said that members of
an International Moulders' Union lo-
cal voted 177 to 40 to stage the strike.
Hie said the vote did not represent
the local's full strength. Since many
members of the A.F. of L. affiliate
were at work at the time it was taken.

Drukman Slayer
Condemned To Die
NEW YORK, July 30.-(W)-Fred J.
Hull, who appealed from a 25-year
second-degree murder sentence for
the killing of Samuel Drukman, was
convicted tonight of first degree mur-
der. The verdict automatically car-
ries a death sentence.
First convicted 18 months ago in
the celebrated Brooklyn case that be-
came a city political issue, Hull ap-
pealed on the grounds that he was
not represented by counsel of his own
choosing. The appellate division up-
held his contention and ordered a new
trial.
Two other defendants, Meyer and
Harry Luckman, in whose garage
Drukman's body was found March 3,
1935, withdrew their appeals.

All Reach Semi-Finals,
Webster Announces
Although the Intramural program
is considerably augmented this year
with a record enrollment the various,
tournaments are being played off
faster and with more efficiency than
in former years, according to Ran-
dolph W. Webster, director of in-
tramural sports.
With the golf tournament enter-1
ing the semi-finals, Walter Wetlly,
regarded as the favorite to win, is
still going strong, but George Han-
sen, who was expected to give him
some stiff competition, has been el-
iminated. After this unexpected up- I
set anything can happen. Stude
Worely, who has participated in these
tournaments for many summers, but
never succeeded in coming out on4
top, may reverse his luck in this one.1
He is in the semi-finals with just two f
more games ahead of him and his
goal.

A Home On Ice
OAKLAND, Calif., July 28.-(A)-
To find out whether the Arctic re-
gions are suitable for big scale colon-
ization is the object of a 14-month
research trip mapped by Dr. Victor
E. Levine. He has taken a leave of
absence from his chair of biological
chemistry at Creighton University,
Omaha, and sailed for Point Barrow,
Alaska, on the coast guard cutter Du-
ane.
"The population of the world is in-
creasing at about 20 million persons
a year," said Dr. Levine. "In years to
come new areas will have to be op-
ened up for human habitation.
"How the food and climate of the
Arctic regions will react on people
from tropic and temperate climates
is what I hope to find out."
DrV Levine. a veteran of four other
An outbreak of rabies became im-
minent in Washtenaw County yes-
terday despite a dog quarantine
placed in effect more than a month
ago with the announcement that a
dog which had bitten at least three
persons and a number of other dogs
in the city had died of rabies, accord-
ing to a brain examination of the dead
dog by the local Pasteur Institute.
It was the first case in three or
four years in which it was definitely
known thathpeoplegin Ann Arbor had
been bitten by a dog which was proved
to be rabid.
Those known to have been bitten
are:
Donald Hudson, 7 years old, 305
E. Ann St., son of the dog's owner.
George Dailey, Jr., 5 years old, 303)
E. Ann St.
Roy Brown 23 years old, of Pollard,
Ark., an orderly at University Hos-
pital.
Brown was bitten when he came
too close to the dog while it was tied
up at a gas station at N. Ashley St.
and Miller Ave., operated by the own-
er of the dog, Clyde Hudson. The
dog, which was quite small, brown,
longhaired, and part Pomeranian, is
known to have bitten at least one
other dog which has been ordered
tied for 10 days.
Dr. John A, Wessinger, city health)
officer, yesterday asked all owners of
dogs which may have been exposed
to the rabid one to keep them tied for
10 days in order that it may be de-
termined whether or not they have
contracted the disease. Neighbors of
the Hudsons and nearby children
who may have been exposed to the
dog were advised to take the Pas-
teur treatments. The city furnishes
the anti-rabies treatment free of
charge to all asking for it, according
to Dr. Wessinger, and those unable
to pay for physician's treatment will
be given the injections at the county's
expense either at the Pasteur Insti-
tute or by Dr. Edwin C. Ganzhorn,
county physician, if a written order
is first obtained from a member of
the board of supervisors.
Brown, the hospital orderly, left for
a trip to Pollard, Ark., the day after
he was bitten, and the .Pollard Police
Depatrment was notified by wire yes-
terday to inform Brown the dog was
rabid. The Hudson dog is believed to
have contracted the disease when he
was taken to Mt. Clemens, where it
is prevalent.
It was also reported to police yes-
terday that eight-year-old Fred Eib-
ler, 406 E. Jefferson Ave., had been
bitten by a dog owned by Oscar
Goetz, 508 S. Division St. The dog
was ordered tied.
Faculty Beaten
By Cubs; Yanks
WhipChemists
Heavy slugging by all teams in
both the University and Educational
League made the scores look very
much like a final card game report
Thursday afternoon.
In the University league, the Cubs
triumphed over the Faculty to the
tune of 10 to 8, while the Chemist
boys were easing out a victory over
the Yankees 4 to 3. The Cards were
idle today leaving their percentage
the same, at 4 games won and 1 lost,
but with the other teams playing such
clubs as the Chemists having lost
all previous games raised their per-
centage to .200, by virtue of their
victory over the Yankees.
In the Educational League Thurs-
day, the Tigers trounced the Pan-
thers quite decisively 22 to 8. The
Bees increased their games won to
2 because of their victory over the
Indians by the score of 11 to 8. There
is still one more game to be played
which has been scheduled for next
Tuesday.
