Witnesses also said that Tipton, after seeing the little girl said. "That's the little girl I took." The girl's grandmother testified that her granddaughter identified Tipton as the man who took her to the New York Central railroad yards and she also said that Tipton, in the presence of the child, admitted that he was with her. Miss Frances Perkin, a neighbor of the child, also said that she was present when the little girl identified Tipton. She also testified that Tipton identified the girl as "the girl I had." Similar testimony was by Mrs. Leola Bovver, a friend of the girl's family.

On cross-examination by James Baker, Tipton's attorney, Miss Perkin testified that Tipton, after his arrest, said that he found the gir on Erie Street and that he broughl ler home. Miss Perkin said thai Tipton said the girl told him that some little children brought her to Erie Street and that she wanted to go home. Robert Stites, city policeman, also testified this morning. He said that Tipton's rubbers fit perfectly into tracks found in the New York Central yards and that the shoes of the little girl also fit perfectly into smaller tracks found in the snow in the yards January 4. The gir took him and her father on the route she covered the night before with the man, he said.

He said that Tipton was instructed concerning his constitutional rights and that no threats or promises were made to him.

He said he saw Tipton sign a statement that was taken. After making the-statement, Stites said that Tipton remarked "that confession was good for the soul and that he might be able to sleep better than he had previously." Prosecutor Hammond made a motion to admit the statement as evidence but Mr. Baker objected until after cross-examination. The cross-examination of Stites was to begin this afternoon. Tipton positively was identified yesterday afternoon by Mrs.

Leonard a neighbor of the girl's family, as being with the little girl shortly before 6:15 o'clock on the night of the assault. Mrs. Davis testified that she was returning home from a shopping trip when she passed the girl, walking with a man whom she identified as Tipton. She said the man and the little girl were going toward the girl's home and that she thought nothing of it at the time although she did not know the man. Tipton had the girl by the arm, she said.

Mrs. Davis testified that Tipton was wearing overalls, a jacket and lap when she saw him walking outh on Comstock Street with the girl. She also saw him later that night after his arrest, she said. Father Testifies The father of the girl also testi- ied yesterday afternoon. He told his daughter volunteering to go on an errand to the neighborhood store soon after 6 o'clock.

When they will be on call for duty in the event of an emergency. The classes are divided into groups of eight or ten men.

Last night the firemen explained and demonstrated the equipment on the various trucks, the use of clamps, the method of making hose connections with hydrants and the pumper trucks, and the procedure of laying hose. The engines of the pumper trucks and the rural fire trucks were explained briefly as well as the use of different types of hose nozzles. In short, last night's lesson was designed to show the volunteers just what they had to with. Future lessons will cover the use of chemical equipment and, eventually, the prospects are the volunteers will get that cherished a bit of action.

Charles E. Brown of 726 Croswell Street is doing her bit in another way. Since June 26 she has knitted more than 100 sweaters, socks, mittens and suits for the American Red Cross. The son, Don Brown, 24 years old, joined the U. S.

Lenawee county license plate distributor, from Harry F. Kelly, secretary of state. The order applies only to those cars for which proof is available to show that the purchaser had ownership and possession of the car prior to January 1. Mr.

Goodwin estimated that the order will release nearly 200 new cars in Lenawee county alone which were in sales rooms having equioment installed or minor adjustments made. Until today, license Dlate distributors had been forbidden to issue plates for the new cars. Between 12 and 15 new milk trucks in the county were affected by the order. Mr. Goodwin said.

Although the trucks had been purchased before January 1. they were garages having bodies installed. Another example of motorists af- 'ected, Mr. Goodwin said, is the Onsted man who purchased a new car before January 1 and left it in he garage to have a trailer hitch nstalled before leaving for Florida. It was not until the hitch was installed on January 2 that the motorist applied for a license.

The application, had to be refused, according to the old order and the motorist had to abandon his plans take the car and trailer to Tlorida. The new order came from Washington through the Michigan secretary of state's office. directed them to York Central railroad the New yards, he said, where the assault took place. He said that a pair of rubbers admitted in evidence and also a pair of the little girl's shoes fitted perfectly into tracks found in the snow in the New York Central yards. He also said that his daughter's lips were bruised and that she had bruises about her jody after she returned home.

The girl told officers that the man left her near her home and that she walked home alone. Harry Griewahn, city fireman, who aided in the search and took Tipton into custody after he saw a man walking with a little girl in the neighborhood, was on the stand for cross-examination. He was questioned by James H. Baker, Tipton's attorney, concerning his justice court testimony at Tipton's examination. On cross-examination Griewahn repeated statements made on direct examination Friday that when he caught up with Tipton near Tipton's residence at 312 North Locust Street that Tipton said: "You've got nothing on me."

28 at 7:30. Work in the secont Carl Yost, W.M. B. King, Sec. Street and told Miss Jessie tee, chairman of the knitting committee, that she would like to knit a sweater.

In the next few weeks the women who spend long hours in the Red Cross rooms were amazed at the number of finished garments Mrs. Brown turned out, and they have continued to be amazed for seven months. Since she received her first yarn Mrs. Brown has completed 112 pairs of mittens, eight sweater and cap suits for children, seven sweater and pant suits for toddlers, 12 cardigan sweaters, one man's sweater and one girl's sweater. To anyone who knows knitting it adds up to a lot of stitches.

In addition she has done other work for relatives and friends seven shawls, eight pairs of adult's mittens, two small girl's sweaters, and a sweater for her husband. At present she is working on another sweater for the Red Cross End a pair of socks for Don. Knitting makes the days seem shorter. To any newcomer to the Rec Cross rooms she is introduced as "Mrs. Brown our champion knitter." And "champion" is an appropriate title.

Most women require at least a month to knit a Iy enough she doesn't wear glasses and says her eyes are never tired. although she frequently knits until after midnight Knitting is Mrs. Brown's main activity as might be guessed from the amount of work she accomplishes. Of course, she takes time off to keep house and get meals, but Mr. Brown says that sometimes -he thinks she'd rather knit than eat.

Don last summer transferred from the Coast Guard to the Navy as machinist mate. At present he is at Norfolk, Virginia, as instructor. Navy wives and mothers universally spend many anxious days and nights, and Mrs. Brown is no exception. On one occasion three months went by without a letter from Don and on another occasion it was five.

Both times he was on long cruises in the Atlantic, far from post offices and main bases. January 12 the Lenawee chapter of the Red Cross awarded Mrs. Brown a service button for her outstanding work in knitting. But no bragging for Mrs. Brown.

She leaves that to her husband and Red Cross associates saying, "Maybe I'm doing some good for Don and for some of the others serving man's sweater. Mrs. Brown com- i their country."
