SPLIT DECISIONS
IN MICHIGAN WAR
"Reds" and "Blues" Claim
Victory as High Command
Sits Opinions.
BY The Associated Press,

ALLEGAN, Mich, August 15.-As
spirited an argument as ever followed
split decision in a close base ball
game ragged today among the $50 UNI
pires assigned to the West Michigan
war games.
The second Army's high command
sifted opinions of its $50 arbiters in
sn attempt to discover who won" the
first extensive engagement between the
red" and blue" armies.
The general outlines of the battle"
remained the same, with the 32d
Division firm in its position on the
northern sector and the 33d striving
to reorganize its interior elements to
the south.
On the red" side, horse Cavalry con-
| tinued to attack on the northern flank:
Infantry. backed by artillery, pressed
| against the center, and the mechanical
Cavalry made numerous raids from its
Selkirk Lake quarters against the
southern flank.
These points were agreed upon by
the umpires: That there was action

Lake to Diamond Springs, that the
Red" mechanized units swept the
right flank of the 33d Division and
worked havoc with its service Of sup
ply and that somebody" theoretically
blew Up the Allegan Municipal Power
Dam.
There the agreements ended.
The Reds" claim they captured the
9th Corps headquarters at Fennville,
whereas the 9th Corps claims it
turned all its weapons on the armored
cars and theoretically annihilated the
enemy"
Blues" contend they theoretically
dynamited the Allegan Dam to I'M

say they captured the dam and then

thought holds that Blue" detach.

~ ifat hssOCihtcu ETrSs.
WESTMINSTER. Md, August Is.
Police blamed jealousy for an ak
attack on Q man and the death of .
girl In 49-foot plunge yesterday.
Deputy Sheriff Walter shipley said
the man, John Hyde, told him Miss
Grace Lippy attacked him with the
ak, attempted to hang herself, cut
her throat and dropped from the fire
escape of her own apartment.
Naming the motive as the girls
jealousy, Deputy Shipley added:
That's what the man told me. He
said he'd been paying attentions to
this girl and he stepped out on her
with another lady and she found 1t
out"
DR.. Clifford Taylor said Hyde had
a fractured skull. He sent him to q
Baltimore hospital for further treat
ment.
Shipley said the ak was a new one,
apparently bought a few hours before
the tragedy. With the ak wrapped in
paper, he said, the girl phoned Hyde,
ofSAaeoA Va q Auhil lAOfiI o SohlEt~
tionery store Ann Voght, clerk in
the store. said Miss Lippy appeared
'in a daze" when the clerk noted the
wrapped object and asked her if she
were going TO play tennis.
Over the telephone the girl asked
Hyde to come to her apartment. He
said that when he arrived she asked
him to open window. While he was
at the window, Shipley said Hyde told
him. the girl struck him with the axe,
knocking him unconscious. When he
recovered, the deputy quoted him as
saying. Miss Lippy was hanging in
the doorway from a short length OF
sash cord. He told Shipley he cut
the body down and went to get aid
Throat Was SIashed.
The policeman said that when Hyde
returned. he said he found her with
her throat cut. He went again to
ask aid. When he returned. he found
the girl was gone. She lay on the
ground 40 feet below the window of
her apartment.
Shipley said the girl died a few
seconds after he arrived on the scene.
He saw that her throat was cut and
climbed the fire escape leading to her
apartment. The rooms were blood
spattered but empty. At the door,
the deputy said, he saw Hyde, covered
with blood, climbing the steps on his
hands and knees.
The girl. 26. was an employe Of a
shoe factory here. Her family live on
the outskirts OF the town. Hyde, As.
was widower.
Magistrate Sherman E. Flanagan
empanelled a coroner's jury, which
viewed the body before releasing it
for burial. The formal inquest will
not be held until Hyde is sufficiently
recovered to attend.

county departments and their person.
mel will be made in a move to elimi-
nate all unnecessary employees from
the county's pay roll, County Manager
Frank C. Hanrahan advised the
County Board at its meeting yesterday.
In a discussion led by Board Mem
bers William p Ames and F. Free
land Chew, 1t was pointed out that
the county could save money by re-
ducing its forces where possible.
Ames called attention to the fact
there we're more than 200 employees
listed on this months pay roll.
Chew said he was opposed to the
practice that has been carried out
of paying employees hired by depart
ment heads before their employment
has been approved by the county
manager.
County Manager Hanrahan said
his check will determine the status
of all present employees as to whether
their positions are permanent or
temporary. He also announced he will
hold weekly conferences with the
heads of all county departments start
ing September l.
False Alarm Rewards Offered.
The board voted a standing reward
~ fap iy,f1 -
the arrest and conviction of any per-
son wilfully turning in a false fire
alarm, after its attention was called
to fact that number of false alarms
have been reported recently.
In line with petition signed by
property owners near Thrifton and
the recommendation of the Zoning
Board of Appeal. the County Board
denied the request of the Washington
e. Old Dominion Railroad to rezone
1885 acres OF its right uf way near
Thrifton Station for light industrial
use.
The board voted to install a COM
plete oil-burning heating system for
the court house and its new annex
at a cost of sl1, 500. Contract for the
work was awarded the Colonial Fuel
Oil Co. Present boilers in the old
court house will be used.
Parking Authority Approved.
A new ordinance which gives
County Manager Hanrahan and
Sheriff Howard B. Fields authority
to make general and specific regula-
tions for the parking of automobiles
in the county was adopted.
The monthly pay roll of s57 .509.62
was approved.
A report was received from County
Treasurer Charles T. Jesse. which
showed that S64 PSI of delinquent 1894
real estate taxes has been collected to
date this year. leaving an uncollected
balance of $56.085.45. The treasurer's
report also showed he has collected
$473, ,667.77 in 1885 real estate taxes to
date from the total levy of S583, $50 81
Members of the board commended
the treasurer for his report and
promised cooperation in any plan TO
force further collections of back taxes.

may be augmented by some OF the staff
Of the Racquet Club. it was said.
The University Club, in assuming
the liabilities OF the Racquet Club, also
will take over an option on the out
standing bonds OIL the building. These
bonds run until January /, 1945.
Reorga nized Year Ago.
A year ago the Racquet Club was
reorganized under Section 77B of the
bankruptcy act, which reduced the
interest rate on s540,0 900 of outstand-
ing bonds from 6i2 to 3 per cent
These bonds at present are being Of
fered at 40 per cent of face value and
it is understood the University Club
option is at this level.
There is a mortgage Of $l03 900
on the University Club building. This
mortgage is in the name of the Uni
versity Club Building Corp. IS per
cent of the corporation stock being
held by the club.
The five-story stone club building
is to be offered for sale at S400, 900. it
Is understood The Southern Rail-
way is understood to have offered
S625, 900 for the property in 1927. at
the time it was acquiring land for its
new building. 1t is said that the Gov
ernment has tenta lively offered to
lease the building at rental of $32,-
900 q year. The building was erected
in 1914 and provides % sets of living
quarters.
The much larger and newer
Racquet Club building probably will
undergo remodeling as soon as the
merger plan is voted upon. The Uni
versity Club has a ladies' dining room
and lounge and these features will be
incorporated in the Racquet Club,
which has always been mems ath-
letic club. Dining room facilities will
be enlarged, a ladies' lounge pro-
vided on the first floor. and cafeteria
installed on the second floor. A small
library probably will replace one OF
the four squash courts.
Many Athletic Facilities.
The Racquet Club has swimming
pool. bowling alleys. gymna sum
steam rooms and other athletic facili-
ties. It is a seven-story building
with 104 bed rooms. AS remodeled,
it is to have s6 bed rooms, eight of
the present number being converted
into Offices and storage space.
The University Club now has 525
resident members and is expected to
gain about 100 members from the
Racquet Club.
The merger plan is to come up be-
fore the University Club for vote next
Friday and before the Racquet Club
membership at about the same time.
I'VE expect some criticism and per.
haps there may be some minor
changes in the plan," it was explained
by officials of the University Club,
but there is every assurance the main
features of the plan will be adopted"
1t is hoped moving of the Uni
versity Club to its new quarters may
begin by September Is.
