TURNS AUTOMATIC SHOTGUN on GROUP; sl KKS.NBBRS AFTER KILLING SHERIFF EAST TAWAS, Mich., July 2.— Enraged because the noise of a group of merry-makers interferred with his sleep, Arthur A. Wu^ds, 52 years old, turned an nut malic sliotgun on the guests at a house party given by his son-in-law here early .Sunday, killing three of them, and then fatally woun a d Sheriff diaries C. Miller, 38, v, V i had been summoned to the scene. Tim . 'looting occurred at 3 a m., at the home of Artliur Janson, wh’ro Woods had made his l.ome with his • 'aug'ht'-r and son in Iva, and baaides Sheriff Mi'ler, the dead included Dr. Stanley Somers, 31 year. I I, prominent physician here; Lloyd Hayes, 35, cf Fi t Tawas, and his wife, 31. Roy H V-i, y, also a guest, was lightly wounded. Sheriff Miller, hurrying to the scene of the wholesale slaughter after getting an urgent summons from neighbors, encountered Woods at the back do r of the Janson home. The two men exchanged shots. Although the sheriff emptied his revolver at him, Woods escaped unscathed, but

struck the sheriff in the abdomen, | and he died shortly afterward in a

hospital.

With a calmness that contrasted strangely with the fury that attended the killings, Woods reentered the house from which the terrified guests had fled, leaving the victims sprawled on the floor. He gathered up his two grandchildren and took them to a neighbor for safekeeping, walked to the county jail at nearby Tawas City and surrendered to Margaret Den- , sted, a maid in the sheriff's home. auto is burned A Clvevrolet sedan belonging Uo Frank DeHart of Bainbridge was practically destroyed by tire Saturday a short distance northwest of Greencastle on the Rockville road.

CHAPTER II

W lien Blondle McClune and Lottie Callahan met tn a fight...It was nothing to laugh at! No sooner had Lottie struck the first blow across iilondie's cheek, then she received Blondie’s clenched fist on the side of her neck—a blow that was ileillierately aimed at Lottie's delicate chin, gists flew thick and fast. Rules against clawing or scratching are not In the code book of the lighting feminine. Uuth hats went off, and flowing hair was fair game. It was not long before both girls were rolling on the hallway floor. In a rough and tumble scrap ilia' only two tenement district kids

could stage.

Tin? first round was well under wav. but not long enough for any referee te tell who waa winning, when fieri Hlatterly mounted the stain from the street. CJert was Blondle's married sister. She had been buying the family provisions, and carried a big string shopping bag filled with vegetables. Gert

onion predominating.

‘T'm gonna poke that Lottie dame a good one some day,” said Gert, as sin handed her mother the bag of vegetables. ''Who does she think she Is anyway—struttin’ around wth her nose in the Air." As Mn McClune retreated to the kitchen with her burden, Blondle immediately went on the defensive

against her sister.

"She's all right." answered Blondle, "But she’s full of prunes! It’s the hifuluting books she reads... Look—she tore my dress!” and Blondle glared down at it ruefully.

trying to'hohl together a long tear. "Where's the sewing basket?" Blondle answered her own ques> tion by going into her room and returning with a needle and thread. As she started to mend her dress the walls of Gert's baby filled the

room.

‘‘Oh, dear, 1 wish that kid would sing nncther song," said Blondle In a weary voice. ‘T get tired of the same old tune all the time." ‘‘You'd get tired of anything— you was horn tired!" came back Ge'-;, making no attempt to quiet the baby. Just then Pete entered the flat, carrying the evening paper. Pete

glanced up at the rolling girls, and a flash of rdcognition crossed her face, but she did not hurry her slepf.. t'he had seen fights between these two combatants many times before. As Gert reached the top of the stairs, she quietly and with careful and deliberate aim swung her shopping bag. It landed neatly in the small of Lottie's hack, knockMi the breath out of her. "Lay off my sister!” Gert •narlod. Lottie, realizing that the odds w i i now against her. started to get to her feet. "That's right—get your whole dirty family—your whole low down dirty family!" she gasped Quite calmly Gert hit her again. Lottie almost keeled over. "Gee, Gert,” Blondle said as she • rose and started to Lottie's i slstcnce, "Cut that out* If you've hurt her I'll crown you!” Lottie turned and ran rapidly up the stairs Blondle and Gert watched the retreating Lottie, and heard her slam the door of the Callahan flat at the top. As they ttu ned to enter their own flat, Mrs. McClune suddenly flung open the door. •‘What’s all the row!” and Ma McClune's voice rose like a walling siren. "It’s Lottie hittln' It off again, Ma.” said Gert. "Oh, It soimded like a fight,” answered Ma wearily, losing all interest In such a common occurrence. Ala McClun^ turned and,led her two daughters Into the flat. They passed through a small and dingy hill Into the living room, whlph ul.-o served as the dining room for the family. The furnishings were clearly the result of years of collecting on behalf of Pa and Ma McClune, a new piece this yeer another that, and all of the Grand K. p.ds variety. The odor of cook-,

was a big, strapping, lazy looking Individual, who bad man led Gert three years liefote and had been enjo} h.r. bad health ever since. "Talking of being tired," said Blondie with one glance at her brother-in-law, "How do you feel today. Pete?" "Hello, Blondle,” greeted Pete, ignoring the question. "Did my eye* deceive me or was that Lottie talkin' to those two guys In that swell car? That was one of them new—" “Here—shut up will you! Take the baby!" interrupted Gert, thrusting ttie youngster at him. "I better not take him—he'll catch my cold. Remember, Gert 1 gave you my cold...” "That's about the only thing you ever did give her," Blondie cut In. "Was that Lottie with them fellows?" again Inquired Pete. "1 don’t know. I mind my own business." snapped Blondle. "What are you doing, mending your dress?" asked Pete, realizing that further questioning on Lottie's affairs would only Invite trouble. "Yes." rather sadly. "And 1 goes* it's too eld to mend " Blondle tossed the needle and thread onto the table and started for the cupboard at the side of the room. “Hey, Ma!” she called out to the kitchen, “I gotta buy a dress." "What for?" Ma’s voice boomed from over the gas stove. "To go to work in." nnswered Blondle as she reached for an old pewter cup on the top shelf of the cupboard "What else for?" Carefully she took down the) cup...In It she kept her savings. A cry that was almost a sob to%v out of her...her money. ..money she had saved bit by bit from her meager wages...it was gone!
