Sci HEARING
in SHOOTING
Shores Man Held
in Lieu of Bond

Walter Jacobs, AZ, 22100 Sha-
dy Lane, st. Clair Shores, was
in the county Jail today awaiting
examination on charges of as
sault with intent to kill growing
out of his alleged lattempts TO
shoot his wife, Gladys, 81, fol-
lowing a family quarrel Satur-
day night.
Justice Frank E. Jeanette
set Dec. Is at 10 a. m. at the
time of Jacobs examination af-
ter he pleaded innocent on ar
raignment late Monday. Jacobs
was jailed when he failed to fur
nish $4,000 bond.
Mrs. Jacobs told st. Clair
Shores police that Jacobs, who
had been drinking, seized his IL
guage shotgun and chased her
from the house late Saturday
night. He fired four times, she
said, but each shot missed in
the darkness.

loaded lifeboat down its davits
as the sea swirled around his
legs an dthen carried him down
with his ship.
Another was Seaman Fred
erick j. Mills of Detroit, who
patched up a shattered lifeboat
at sea with salvaged canvas.
Desperate shipmates chung to his
feet as he worked with head and
shoulders under water until he
was blue with cold and gasping
for breath.
Sixty men were pulled from
the water into the craft. Bail
ing constantly and rowing with
damaged oars they reached the
South American coast aft e r
eight days. Two of the group
died later.
when we m ID away"
Mills recounted on reaching an
American port, "about SO men
were on little rats or clinging
to wreckage. We tried to coax
a couple more to come with us,
but thew said no, they would
stay where they were. They
were afraid their weight would
sink us. l haven't much hope
that they are alive now"
Mills told, for example, of
Lieut.. (JG) Thomas M n e
Leoby, Jr., of San Diego, for
mer San Francisco lawyer, who
was urged to get in the life
boat. Leoby, who had been in
command of the gun crew on
one of the vessels sunk earlier
in the South Atlantic, swan to
the boat and saw how crowded
it was, Mills said, and refused
to come aboard.
He had given his lifebelt to
some other person SO the group
in Mills boat threw Leoby an
other. He waved and swan
back to a hatch cover.

VoIorous Seomen Credited
with Saving Many Lives
Survivors Tell Stirring ToIe
of Herosm, Self Sacrifice

WASHINGTON, Dec. 8 Up
- The valor of a handful OF
American seamen was credited
today with saving the lives OF
scores of their shipmates and
passengers on four torpedoed
United Nations vessels.
In two East coast ports, sur
vivors of the merchant ships,
sunk during October and No
vember, told of the man who
risked drowning to patch a life
boat; the young seaman who
gave his life to lower boat for
others; and of those who chose
certain death rather than over
crowd a boatload of survivors.
One ship, which carried sur
vivors of six earlier sinkings,
three of which were announced
previously by the Navy, was
torpedoed in a daylight attack
early last month off South
America. Altogether 1875 men
are dead or missing from this
action, the Navy reported last
night.
Two torpedoes struck the me-
diminished merchantmen and it
sank in about 10 minutes. The
ship carried 200 persons includ-
ing 169 American seamen saved
from the six other sunken YES
sells. And while only 164 were
rescued the loss of life would
have been heavier but for the
heroism of at least two men.
One was an unidentified
young seaman who cranked

Hired by City

Supervisor Added

Two new teachers were hired
and one other formerly en-
ployed by the system was given
a contract by the Board of Ed
ucation meeting Tuesday.
Superintendent L. Wade Fast
revealed that a supervisor of
physical education in elemen-

job of supervisor was abolish
ed during the depression, Fast
said, but the board feels that
physical fitness is definitely a
part of the war effort.
The new supervisor is Miss

CHICAGO, May - $500 (H) --
Preliminary crop reports indi-
Gated today Dame Nature had
Joined forces with the American
farmer in the about program
of food for victory.
Bumper harVestS all along the
line were forecast with soil and
weather conditions just about
ideal.
On the enemy side of the pic
ture, the outlook in Axis-domin-
ated parts of the world took on a
definitely unfavorable tinge.
OUTLOOK GOOD
The Department Of Agricult-
ure crop reporting board said
the general outlook here was
decidedly good-in fac. if the
weather were any better, the
yield of foodstuffs would be aug
mented even more" The May
l government crop report indi-
Gated a winter wheGt crop of
646,875, 900 bushels and a rye
harvest of 53,279,OO0 bushels,
The area soWn to winter
wheat was the smallest except
for one year since 1914, the re-
port said, but with the smallest
acreage abandonment and high
est yield per acre in ten years,
the 1912 crop was expected to
produce 22,000,000 bushels more
than was indicated a month ago
and only 100000 bushels less
than the huge crop of last year.
YIELD HIGH
The yield per acre was estl-
mated at 1913 bushels and the
department said there had been
only two years since 1909 in
which higher yields were indi-
Gated.
Broomhall, the British grain
authority, reported on the other
hand that over much of the
European continent winter and
spring crops were backward due
to a recent cold, dry spell.
LAS a result of the small acre
age planted last fall and the late
ness of spring the report added,
lit is believed that most coun-
tries are facing their third sue
Cessive Indifferent harvest. In
the Danube area, even with
good growing season, wheat sur
pluses are likely to be very
small.
Of the Russian situation
Broomhall said, there are great
possibilities of increased food
production in Siberia where
large areas are capable Of high
