NEED HEAVY TUG

Experienced seamen declared II
would be impossible to get the
Manhattan free without the aid of
at least one seagoing tug.
The Solorino. a seagoing tug
dropped its tow this morning al
the port here and may be used in
the next relocating attempt at high
tide at 8 p. m. today.
Small private craft were stand
ing by in case assistance was
needed. as il was said the pas
sengers might be removed during
the day. The Manhattan was re-
ported listing approximately Is de-
grees to port, rolling heavily.
Ship to shore contact with the
vessel was disrupted by the acct
dent.
The Manhattan sailed from New
York late Friday night on a voy-
age to California. How the huge
vessel happened to go aground was
for the time being a mystery.
Coast guardsmen said they could
no. understand why the Manhat-
tan. which has a gross weight of
$4,000 tons. is 668 feet long and
draws 33 feet of water, had been
navigated so close to shore. At the
point where the liner was aground,
local navigators said. the shoreline
curves outward and a bar runs
several hundred feet out from
shore.

at the Wilcox-Rich plant after
six policemen, including Chief
Fred H. Gemske, had been
injured in a strike riot this
morning. 81
Capt. Caesar Scavarda Of the
state troopers, who joined with
local officials in asking for
state police, conferred with
Prosecutor Joseph p. Frisks
about taking action as result
of the rioting.
City Manager Carl H. Peter
son has instructed the police to
get felony warrants for all
strikers who can be identified In
the rioting.
BOMBS HURLED BACK
The riot started when police
tried to disperse 200 pickets OF
the CIO-UAW, which called q
strike, from the main gate of the
plant today. Carrying clubs and
shooting off more than IS tear
and nausea gas bombs, the police
moved on the pickets.
But the pickets, who were car.
rying inch and half sticks, beat
back the police and picked up the
gas bombs and hurled them back
at the officers.
This is the second time In q
month state troopers have been
ordered to Saginaw in the Wilcox

director of the Go.
None Of the pickets was seri-
ously injured. so far as could he

WELD them.
The plant. which employs 100
persons, was unable to work.

IN APRIL l5' l775, a London
" paper printed a sensational
story.
1t declared that Sir Jeffrey
Amherst had said that with five
thousand English regulars he
would engage to march from one
enc TO the other of the continent
of North America.
And, said the London paper
further, when this statement was
being read in a coffee house In

Washington, who was present, had
stated impudently and disloyally
that with one thousand Virginians
he would engage TO stop Sir
Jeffrey Amherst's regulars dead

Well, friends and fellow citizens,
Colonel George Washington was
soon to be given not merely an
equal but a much greater oppor-
tunity TO stop British regulars.
