Nj Tits May
BE Moved
To Detroit
BY PAUL CHANDLER

ANN ARBOR, Mich, May ~
-(P)-University of Michigan
officials, including Athletic Di-
rector Herbert 0. (Fritz) Girls
Ter, are of the opinion that ra-
tioning of gasoline in the mid
west would cause a drastic re-
duction in attendance at Univer-
sity of Michigan football games
and they are studying various
plans that would move some Of
the bigger contests next fall to
Metropolitan areas where specta-
tors would not be dependent on
automobiles for transportation.
The stated policy at this time,
as expressed by Crisler, is ito
make no new plans until we
have more definite assurance
that a gas rationing law is to be
adopted in this part Of the coun-
try" but all of the athletic fac
ulty members hold a gloomy
view of the future, should such
a law be enacted.
Seven of the coaches express
ed the opinion yesterday that
about 80 per cent of the out
state spectators who attend
games in the 85,000-seat stadium
come TO Ann Arbor by automo-
bile, and they point out that
special trains and buses could
handle only a fragment of the
huge throng that is necessary to
meet the expenses Of these spec
tacles. The shortage Of all public
transportation, both by bus and
rail, is also another factor in the
problem.
Michigan opens a seven-game
home schedule with Great Lakes
Naval Training Station Sept. 26,
and the parties involved here al
ready considered the possibility
Of moving this contest into De-
troit. This date falls on the week
end before the University of

Two little boys told today how their
four companions followed one an
other to their deaths in an icy pond.
Drowned when thin ice broke on
the pond near here yesterday were:
Richard Sloan, 6, and his brother
Charles, 4, sons OF MIR. and Mrs.
French M. Sloan of Arbutus.
Richard Schmidt, 4, and his
brother Francis, 6, sons of Mr.. and
Mrs. william Schmidt, neighbors of
the Sloans.
Convalescing are Robert William
Sloan, z, and James Klein, g. Rob-
ert went to his brothers rescue and
was in turn rescued by James.
The boys said Richard Sloan
walked out on the ice and it broke.
His brother Chafles followed. Then
Richard Schmidt, shouting "I can
swim!" ran out on the Ice, followed
by Francis, but the ice broke again
and they were plunged into the
water.
After their futile attempt at res
cue, Robert and James summoned
help. Firemen and policemen re-
covered the bodies.
