election boards of the questioned
precincts. Candidate Quill; Chef
James, representing Or. Whet-
stone; State Senator Gerald Dixon,
and various county officials.
The voting machines to be
checked were arranged in a neat
squad at one end of the big store
room fronting the court below Ia

Procedure was to take one ma
chine at a time, with the election
board of that precinct watching
the opening of the machine. and
rechecking the machine readings
at the back with the original en-
tries in the poll books.
Names Rotated
Names of candidates are rotated
in different precincts so that dif-
ferent precincts have different dia-
grams; that is the name of a can
didate corresponds to a certain
machine designation such as IA
or "32-B" and only the machine
designation appears on the back.
Each precincts poll book, how
ever, is printed to match the Or
der OF the names on the face OF
the machine. In one precinct, the
board had used a sample ballot
for copying totals from the back
of the machine. The sample bal
lot didn't match the face names,
so the board had crossed out the
order of names in the poll book
to agree with the sample ballot;
that made mess since none of
the poll book totals were correct.
One error which gave Quill a
gain of 20 votes was due TO a
simple mistake IN calling off the
total: Quilts total was "022' but

Errant Boy
appreciates
Ahrens' Aduice

John Ahrens, county welfare
officer, charged with the care of
juveniles who offend against the
laws of the land, has been
cheered by letter from one of
his former proteges who is now
serving with the Army at Char
lctte, North Carolina.
The lad had been involved in
one theft when he was first
lodged in Ahrens custody and
the advice of the welfare Off
Ger went in one ear and out the
other at that time. 1t was only
shortly later that the boy was
in hot water again or another
violation in Detroit.
At that time Ahrens had a
long talk with the boy and the
youth decided that he would en-
ter the armed forces, preferably
the Navy.
In his letter to Ahrens, he
speaks of that and says that he
missed out on getting into the
Navy but that he finds life in
the field artillery very satisfac-
tory. He is a private now, but
he's working for corparalcy
and expects to get it.
Thanking Ahrens for his adj
vice, he advises other boys, who
have let their foot slip, to pay
more heed to the welfare Off
Ger and to "go straight"

DETROIT, July 10 - U.P) -
Three Ianni brothers, Antonio,
%, Guido, 26, and Altelio, %,
who said they thought the
United States was a soft touch
for easy money but preferred to
fight with Mussolini, were to be
arraigned today for draft eva
sion.
The brothers are employed at
the Ford Motor Co. John S.
Bugas, Detroit chief of the FBI,
said they told agents they would
fight against the United States
if they could get back TO Italy.
Bugas said the three failed to
report for a physical. examina-
ton. Questioned by the FBI
agents, Antonio told them "the
only reason he came here was to
get a lot of easy money"
The FBI chief quoted Guido
as saying the reason he came
was to get enough money to
buy a farm in Italy.
"Altelio said it was too bad
he ever left Italy," Bugas re-
ported.

FIND THAT TOM CAT

FIND THAT TOM CAT
]. Bernard Ballantine, who
graduated from sports writing
to general reporting several
months ago, submitted the
following story for publica-
ton:
"A biological problem with a
monetary value is a bit puzzling
these days to Mr.. and Mrs.
George Ormsby, of 81 Michi-
gan, Clinton township.
1.-THE Ormsbys happen to be
the owners of five cats, four
of which Mrs. Ormsby con-
tends are not cats in the strict
est sense of the word but q
combination of cat and rabbit.
The four cats, or kittens, COM
prise the litter born last May
4 to a female which strayed
to the Ormsby home last No
vember.
1.-THE kittens are tailless. They
walk like normal cats but hop
like rabbits when they take it
into mind to act like bunny.
"The brood is composed of
two sets of identical twins of
opposite sexes. The fur of one
set is of a tan color, the fur
IF the second a striped brown.
The coating of the mother of
the hybrids is a combination
Of dark gray well marked
with pale orange.
Shortly after the kittens
were born Mrs. Ormsby claims
a man came to the home and
offered her $50 for the quartet
She declined to sell, she declar-
ed, because at the time she had
no idea what they might be
worth.
"The Ormsbys are unable
to explain the biological phe-
nOmenon. We prefer to let
the biologist or veterinarian
dicuss the subject Mrs.
Ormsby said. All we know is
that we've got house full of
tailless kittens which may or
may not be valuable
1.-THE Ormsbys, h o w ever,
wouldn't mind hearing from
biologist. The biologist might
advise us to hunt up that man
who offered us $50 for the kit

Now, offhand, Mrs. Orms-

an, and he advises you to
