DETROIT, July 26. — Prosecutor Vincent Fitzgerald of nearby Macomb County opened an investigation today of the poisoning of approximately 50 persons who ate food Sunday in a concession tent at the International trapshooting tournament. At least 11 victims required hospital treatment and several others at tended privately by physicians were described as temporarily very ill. Prosecutor Fitzgerald said he had dummoned Walter Maronv, Detroit caterer, and five of his employes and associates today and would endeavor to learn first whether Marony “has any enemies.” The caterer operated a tented lunch concession at the Blue Rack Gun Club grounds where the international j shoot was held. The concession was ! closed immediately and Fitzgerald ' ordered food sampes taken for analy sis by the county chegnist. Caterer Involved Before. Detroit police detectives and health authorities co-operated with Macomb County officials in the investigation, having worked two months ago on a similar case involving the same ca terer. One person died and 71 were made ill in the earlier case. Dr. Don W. Gudakunst, deputy Detroit health commissioner, said the previous case involved a woman em ploye found to be an immune earner of a tasteless bacterial poison istaph lococcus aureus). He said she had been treated successfully by the pub lic health department and wras the subject of a paper being prepared by the department for the American Medical Society. Most of the victims of Sunday's poisoning were spectators of the shoot Many were from other States. A few were tournament entrants. Collapsed Suddenly. The sudden collapse of dozens on the field occurred as the tourney drew to a close. Investigators said others may have become ill after leav ing the tournament. A survey of hospitals showed these Victims in serious condition: Charles Morgan, 56. Corning. Horace Vail, 38, Mount Gilead. Adolph Roeder, 36, Detroit. Floyd Kreischer, 39, Walbridge. Mrs. Mary House. 38. Toledo. Harry J. Crinner, 63, Detroit. Court (Continued From First Page.) tion. The Senator is not a lawyer, but his brother is a member of the Wisconsin bar. Many Washingtonians have ex pressed the belief Mr. Roosevelt might promote a Federal circuit or district judge to the high court. Judges Sam Bratton of New Mexico, Learned Hand of New York, and William Denman of San FTaneisco are among those mentioned. The names of two Democratic Senators—Wagner of New York and Logan of Kentucky—also have entered public discussion. Assistant Attorney General Robert Jackson, Solicitor General Stanley Reed. Chairman James M. Landis of the Securities Commission, and Justice Ferdinand Pecora of New York are others in the epotlight. The fact that three New Yorkers— Chief Justice Hughes and Associate Justices Stone and Cardozo—already are on the bench led many to believe * another man from that State would not be chosen. The Senate must confirm the Presi dent’s selection. There were unofficial predictions that he soon might have to send up one or two additional names. Others Expected to Leave. Repeated hints were given during the court bill battle that some of the older justices—Sutherland and Bran ded in particular—might leave the bench as soon as that issue was aettled. The Senate sidetracked the bill last Thursday and a judiciary committee Is drafting a non-controversial meas ure to speed up lower Federal courts. It asked Senator Borah, Republican, Of Idaho to explain today his proposal for including a method of preventing abuses in reorganization of bankrupt corporations. His plan dealt chiefly with attorneys and receivers’ fees. Committee members expect to send the legislation to the Senate late this week. Little opposition is expected. The bill provides for direct appeal on constitutional questions from lower Federal courts to the Supreme Court; Intervention of the Attorney General In such cases, and for three judges to pass on injunction cases involving validity of a Federal law. - RELIGIOUS SESSION Mass Meeting: of International Group to Be Thursday.
