SPORTS Defroif Owner HopesTo Align With Syndicate Detroit U.R) A "for tale" sign soon may be hung on the Detroit Tigers because base ball club is not considered a sound ingpstment for trust fund owner Spike Briggs said today. But Briggs said he. would make every effort to align him self with a syndicate which might buy the club because "the Briggs name has been part of the Detroit franchise since 1918 and I'd hate to end that associa tion now." An intricate legal situation which is expected to come to a head by the end of October is responsible for the possible sale of the multi-million dollar fran chise, called by some the "strongest in baseball." The final decision will rest with the U.S. Treasury Dept., which is appraising the estate of the late Walter O. Briggs for the purpose of inheritance taxes.

UTZ WEINHARD CO., PORTLAND ORE. o o Chrysler Workers Threaten To Quit Jobs at Midnight By UNITED PRESS Almost " 190,000 employees were on the verge of nationwide strikes today against Chrysler Corp., Westinghouse, and Pan American World Airways. The biggest walkout threat ened Chrysler. Leaders of tec CIO United Auto Workers served notice that 139,000 em poyees would go on strike at midnight tonight in six states unlessDthe big auto company comes up with new offers. Simultaneously, the CIO Elec trical Workers Union ordered a nationwide strike of 42,000 Westinghouse employees Sept. 11 unless a dispute is settled at the firm's giant East Pittsburgh, Pa., plant. In New York, a strike was threatened for any time after midnight against Pan American World Airways. Michael J. Quill, president of the CIO Transport Workers Union, said 98 per cent of the 6,000 em ployees involved had voted for the walkout. 187,000 Workers Involve i If all the strikes take placed a total of 187,000 workers would go off their jobs. In addition, contracts covering 24,000 Ameri can Motors Corp. employees in Michigan and Wisconsin run out Thursday and they were expect ed to follow the lead of the Chrysler" workers. There were some bright spots in the labor picture, however. A tentative contract agree ment between the Firestone Tire and Rubber Company and the CIO International Rubber Work ers Union averted a possible strike of employees in seven states. The agreement provided a general 12-cent hourly wage boost, plus vacation, holiday and hospitalization benefits. Plants involved are located at Akron, O.; Des Moines, la.; Fall River, Mass.; Los Angeles, Calif.; Memphis, Tenn.; New Castle, Ind.; Noblesville, . Ind.; Potts town, Pa. Tarm Machinery Dispute In the fcfm machinery indus try, strikes continued to idle 40, 000 International Harvtt.er Co., employees and 4,475 workers in two Allis-Chalmers Co. plants. Negotiations were continuing, however, and the Allis-Chalmers talks at Milwaukee, covering 13,000 employees, were expect ed to reach the critical stage to day. At Detroit, negotiators settled down for day-long talks in an at tempt to avert the Chrysler walkout. Hopes were high for a settle ment, even though union Secretary-Treasurer Emil M a z e y warned "if the company wants to avoid a strike at midnight it will have to move on many issues." The company and union have already reached agreement on basic economic issues, including a modified guaranteed wage plan, a pay boost, and improved pensiohs. But "side issues" threatened to stall a final ettle ment. 1 A strike "would idle plants in Michigan, California, Delaware, Indiana, Georgia, and Louisiana. Time-Study Protest The Westinghouse dispute in volved a company-ordered time study project at the East Pitts burg plant. About 2.200 day workers have already wlked out in protest against the project and more than 6,000 production workers and 1,350 white collar employees were later fur Ioughed. Company officials charged that a Sept. 11 strike would be a violation of the company-union contract which expires four days later. But a union spokesman re torted that the East Pittsburgh dispute "affects every Westing house focal." The CIO Pan American em ployees were ready to walk out to back up demands for an 18 cent hourly wage increase for hourly-rated employees and a $45 monthly pay boost for flight service employees. 4 l'Jiifmh-JnP If you are suffering from the tor turing pains caused by ARTHRITIS rheumatism, you will be glad to know about safe, non-habit form inq ARTHONUL.0 New improved ARTHONUL combines six active ingredients into one tablet capa ble of giving blessed temporary relief from- pain.
