Tigers Defeat
Yanks; Remain
Tied For Lead
Losing Streak Is Ended
By Victory; Detroit Wins
In Eleventh Off Gomez
DETROIT, July 31.-(MP-The De-
troit Tigers remained in a deadlock
for the American League lead today
by wriggling to a 7 to 6 eleven-ining
by wriggling to a 7 to 6 11-inning
victory over the New York Yankees
and thereby ending a three-game los-
ing streak.
It was a weird game lasting nearly
three hours and requiring the Tigers
to come from behind four times be-
fore they finally victimized relief pit-
cher Lefty Gomez on two walks and
a single by Hank Greenberg.
The Tigers though they had won
the game in the eighth inning when
Pinky Higgins tripled with the bases
loaded to put them in front 5 to 4.
But the Yankees moved back on top
in the°ninth, when George Selkirk,
batting for- pitcher Spud Chandler,
homered with one on.
As soon as Johnny Murphy, who
saved yesterday's game for Red Ruf-
fing, went to the mound in the ninth,
pinch hitters Earl Averill and Billy
Sullivan singled and Bruce Campbell
knocked in the tying run with another
single. That's when Gomez came
in. He walked Greenberg to fill the
bases, but got the Tigers out with
no further damage until the eleventh.
Archie McKain pitched hitless ball
for two innings in relief to ge credit
for the victory. The combination of
this good pitching stopped Joe Di-
Maggio's hitting streak after he had
made at least one safety in 23 con-
secutive games.
Joe Gordon accounted for three
Yankee hits, one of them being his
19th homer of the season with none
on in the second inning.
Ann Arbor
Here Is Today's News
In Summary
Ann Arbor got its dose of "army
consciousness" yesterday when two
armored scout cars stopped here for
just that purpose. The motor units,
which also are trying to recruit men
for the Sixth Corps Area, stayed long
enough to display to a curious crowd
that gathered a miniature arsenal
consisting mainly of machine guns
and submachine guns mounted on
the powerful machines that will do
75 m.p.h.
Mail order customers heard yester-
day that Sears Roebuck, mail order
house supreme, has decided to open
a retail store here, and has already
planned a modernistic store to be
built at 312 S. Main St. Opening is
scheduled for the first of the year.
The store-to-be is described as "a
modified department store" and as
is the wont of Sears Roebuck will sell
everything from soup to nuts.

When dozens of planes dot Ann
Arbor's sky on August 11, they won't
be deadly Stukas. The planes will be
gasoline powered models, taking part
in the second annual meet sponsored
by the Junior Chamber of Commerce.

Fourpersons were officially reported as missing and at least 27 persons were injured as fire and terrific explosions destroyed a paint plant in
Camden, New Jersey. The fire spread into nearby residential and busine ss sections with a loss expected to reach millions. Smoke is shown here
rolling from the block-long paint plant as firemen fought the blaze. Nauseating fumes rising from the chemical vats kept those without masks at
a distance. Louis R. Wallace, factory personnel director, expected bodie s would be found at the bottom of the debris because the first explosion
occurred in the basement where 35 were at work. Other employes said they had seen the four missing girls there.

Study Of Chippewas Completed
By AnthropologistV. Kinietz
Merriam Talk
Will Conclude
By GEORGE W. SALLADE
The ancient customs of the Chip-'
pewa Indian Village on Lac Vieux
Desert in the Upper Peninsula have'
been studied for the past six-weeks
by Vernon Kinietz, Research Associ-
ate in the* Ethno-History' division
of the Museum of Anthropology.
According to Mr. Kinietz, many of
the customs under study date back
before the arrival of the white man.
A comparison was made between the
village as it exists today and was
known to have existed in early times.
Marriage, divorce, and death cus-
toms are approximately the same,
but polygamy is no longer practiced."
The traditional chief is hereditary,
the closest kin being the heir. His
authortiy as cheif rests on his pow-'
eress and esteem in which he is held.
One of the oldest customs of the
village is the "midewiwin" or medi-
cine dance. This dance is part of
the native religion which recognizes
one Great Spirit and a host of lesser
spirits such as the sun spirit and the
thunder bird that winks lightning.
Any person may request and then
finance a one day ceremony includ-
ing the "midewiwin" for thanksgiv-
ing to the Godst for good health or
some great success. Usually several
people give the dance on successive
days. A more social dance is the
"pow-wow", given in thanksgiving for
the benefits received from the medi-
cine dance..
Mr. Kinietz said that only 80 In-
dians resided in the present day vill-
age which is on the same site as

that of the one before the white man
came. The houses are made of logs
and have one or two rooms. Most
of the Indians earn their livelihood
by working on WPA projects in the
forests and on the roads.
Dress is like that of the white
man with moccasins the only re-
maining native part. The tradition-
al drums, tambourines and rattles
are still used as musical instruments,
however. In sports, Mr. Kinietz said
that the Indians prefer baseball to
all others, excelling especially in hit-
ting.
Education in the village consists
of a township school up to the eighth
grade. The teacher lives in the build-
ing during the school year. For their
high school education, the younger
people go to Indian schools in South
Dakota.

domain as books, travel, and lang-
uage, Dr. Malone maintained that
individual achievement must not be
hoarded but must also become public
property.
After predicting g great future for
a vivacious American Iiterature be-
cause of the ever-growing audience
that mass education has given it,
Dr. Malone warned of the danger of
curtailment of literary liberty. He of-
fered two solutions:
1.) A self-imposed check of fruitless
"wisecrack" criticisms. Freedom of
speech carries with it certain obli-
gations, he said.
2.) Recognition of the paramount
importance of freedom of expression
-"the most important of our free-
doms". Civilization, said Dr. Malone,
is lost without it.
Discussing the concentration of
wealth problem, Dr. Malone pointed
out that this country can not ex-
pect a hundred million Americans
to fight for' further maldistribution
of wealth.
He saw a great future for indus-
try in general-if big executives re-
member that they are public ser-
vants with the immense task of faci-
litating co-operation
Dr. Malone also spoke of the role

What do you read
Be tween the lines of every'advertisement you see, you
can imagine these words:
"Thousands of people had to believe in this product
-and buy it - before it was ready for advertising!"
The fact that a product is advertised regularly means
that a lot of people buy it regularly. The fact that a
storekeeper or manufacturer will join his name with it
in public proves that he thinks it is good, honest value.
