March 4, 1953 DETROIT FREE PRESS REAL HARMONY exists among these students of St. John's Lutheran School--and it's a good thing. Keeping "in tune" will be important when the young wizards take to the podium Saturday noon on the Free Press-WXYZ Quizdown television and radio show. They are, standing, from left: Bette Jo Simon, Joyce Johnson, Frederick Lang, Carol Roby and Terry Frederick Sauve. At the piano is Shirley Harris.

Quizdown is on from noon to 12:30 p. m. 12:30 p. m. Protest In Hospital Case Hit A Civil Service Commission official Tuesday attacked Frank E.

Kelley, chairman of the Board of County Institutions, for protesting commission action in reinstating two Wayne County General Hospital attendants. The attendants, Charles R. Rable, 58, and Pius B. Ingram, 49, were fired last July 11 on charges of beating a mental patient at the hospital. James A.

Burns, vice chairman of the Wayne County Civil Service Commission, said, Kelley's protest was "merely smoke screen to cover up bad administration in the operation of the hospital." "NO ONE CONDONES the cowardly and evil practices of beating patients," said. "However, it is equally wrong and vicious to convict innocent men simply to provide a sacrificial goat on the altar of personal pride and ambition." Burns said that during the hearing of the appeal of these men before commission, there was no evidence produced which linked them with the beating of the patient. "In fact," Burns declared, "one of the hospital physicians testified that the beating could have taken place on any one of several shifts." He said that the pair had successfully passed lie detector tests given them by the Detroit Police Department. "The real fault for not finding the guilty party," Burns said, "lies in the fact that there is no nursing on the male psychopathic a practice supervision, which no recognized hospital would tolerate." Burns charged that Kelley has virtually established himself as the chief administrator of the hospital. "The morale of persons in top positions is at an all time Burns charged, "and unless major corrective measures are taken immediately in administration and in personnel matters, the hospital is going to rapidly disintegrate."

DSR Hikes Pay of 1,600 Repairmen The Detroit Street Railway Commission Tuesday granted pay increases totaling $340,040 yearly to a group of CIO maintenance workers and Supervisors.
