RANDOLPH
SAYS He HAS FINE LITTLE
JOB FOR A GRAND JURY
Deposed Hamtramck Official
Would Have Airing of Slot
Machine Scandal
HERE'S THE BIG MYSTERY
Seized "Coin Collectors" Stored
in County Building Returned
To Owners, It's Claimed

Former Justice or the Peace Edwin
8. Randolph. who was one OF the big
figures in the slot machine disclosures
about a year ago, figuring az bith the
hero and the goat" In the matter,
says that II grand jury Is called
TO investigate city and county affairs,
he would like very much to see the
Jury 20 into the slot machine matter.
Justice Randolph was deposed as a
result of the disclosures, but threats
to prosecute him were never carried
out, and 1t was freely stated at the
time, that Randolph knew too much"
to put him in any personal danger.
One question that was not brought
into the spotlight at the time Of the
slot machine inquiry, was the disposal
OF many seized machines, which are
said to have disappeared. from the
county building, and to have found
their sway back ITO the persons from
whom they were taken.
Several such machines were seized
twice from the same places, accord
ing to Randolph who has always been
anxious to know how the owners or
operators got them back after the
first seizure.
During the progress OF the slot ma
chine scandal, all machines were sent
to the county building. Nobody seems
to know where they have gone since.
Since Prosecutor Shepherd took Of
fee, he senGs all seized machines to
police headquarters, where they are
broken up.
But under the regime of former
Prosecutor Philip T. Van Zile, now on
the circuit bench, Judge Randolph
says that he was ordered to break
only the works in the slot machines.
He says that at one time he broke the
machinery In 70 Of the. machines, in
his cellar at Victorave. and John r.
ST., and later sent the frames to the
county building.
Those frames later turned up in the
Leonard Storage Co. plant. and still
later were removed from there, bu'
not by the county officials. Randolph
claims.
II would like to see a grand jury,
under Prosecutor Shepherds guild
ance, take up that old slot machine
matter, IL such grand jury convenes
to look into other matters" said
jude Randolph to The Times.
{t was freely stated at the time OF
the former investigation, that many
high county officials would be involved
In a nasty mess IL anyone pushed
Randolph too hard.

YOUTH KILLED IN AUTO
SMASH FRIENDS MISSING

Following the death. Sunday, of Roy
LANCER, 22 years old, Of No. 81 Louis
ave.. as the result of the ditching or
BORROWED automobile. Frank Terrin
and Edward Lane, companions of the
dead man, are missing. Police detec-
uyes and the coroner have watched
the homes OF the young men and
every clue to their whereabouts has
been closely followed without result.
It was first feared that In the
smashnp the young men might have
been thrown into Fox creek. on the
brink OF which the accident occurred.
This theory has been given up, after
several hours OF dragging the creek
BY Harbormaster Ellison.
The. missing men were employed as
|ienonstrators by the Metzger Motor
Co. II is said young Terrin borrowed
u machine from the company, Satur-
day night, and asked the other two
to join him. The three started from
Ackerman's grocery store at No. 1871
Mack ave-. late In. the evening. The re-
mainder of the night Is said to have
been spent In one of the lake front re-
sorts, and the accident occurred on
the return journey about quarter Oh
a mile from Woods radhouse.
Apparently the driver lost control OF
the machine, which jumped from the
road into the ditch, careering along
for 200 feet before striking tele-
phone pole. The crash demolished the
machine and threw the passengers
over the windshield.
LANCER, who was driving, landed on
his head and was unable to move. HIS
companions, apparently, were unin'
iured. The crash OF the smashup
was heard by man living nearby.
He rushed to the scene and found the
unconscious form of LANCER lying oe-
side the machine. A police ambulance
was called and LANCER was taken 10
st. ary's hospital, where he died. sun
day afternoon, without regainfng con-
seriousness.
The police Immediately started on
n search for the two missing men.
Coroner Rothacher said, Monday. that
Il would have been impossible for the
men to have been thrown into the
creek from the place where the ma
chin struck.
Neither the parents OF Terrin or
Lane have any idea as to the wherc-
'abouts OF their missing sons.
