According to Sgt. Heinz Schweiger of the homicide section, two men began firing as they entered the office of taxi-cab owner Exavor Giller on the second floor of the garage on Trumbull opposite Tiger 'Stadium. Giller was wounded in the spleen but pursued the gunmen to a nearby stairwell, firing back at them as they ran down the stairs, police said.

Henry Jefferson White 23, of Detroit was found In the stairwell, wounded In the neck and right leg, police said. A revolver was on the 1 nearby, they said. "At this point, I don't think it was an armed robbery," said Schweiger. "The investigation is continuing." Both Giller and White are In serious condition at Detroit General Hospital. AFTER THE shooting police arrested a man in a telephone booth near the garage.

Neither he nor White has been charged, pending further investigation, Schweiger said. Giller owns a small fleet of taxicabs that operate out of the Checker garage.

MIAMI BEACH (AP) -AFL-CIO President George Meany indicated Monday tha't the tentative peace agreement with the Teamsters for settling the California farm worker dispute may be falling apart. "Something has happened," Meany said.

"We reached an agreement then all of a sudden nothing." In a speech to the AFL-CIO Maritime Trades Department, he said there had been no con- tact with the Teamsters since the tentative peace pact was announced Sept. 28 in Washington. Efforts to contact the Teamsters have been unsuccessful, he said. MEANY AND Teamsters President Frank E. Fitzsim- mons on Sept.

28 disclosed an in principle" with United Farm Workers President Cesar Chavez that would end" the long and sometimes violent jurisdictional fight be-, tween the two unions. Details of the agreement were withheld pending examination of the legal language by counsel for Meany and Fitzsimmons. Meany said all that remained was final approval by himself and Fitzsimmons. Meany gave no Indication as to the nature of the problem but said a full report would be made during the AFL-CIO Convention, which opens here Thursday. IN CALIFORNIA, Chavez said he was unaware of what problem has stalled the signing.

A spokesman for the growers, John Giumarra declined comment but reiterated that table grape growers still considered their farm labor contracts with the Teamsters legally valid.

Many growers signed with the Teamsters this year after, their pacts' with the UFW expired. Under the tentative agreement, the Teamsters were to have repudiated contracts signed this year with California grape growers and leave organizing of field hands to Chavez's union. The Teamsters would retain Jurisdiction over all other workers, such as In the canneries, warehouses and pack-. ing sheds. 4 LINES-ONLY $2 CALL 222-6800 sra ocno QO.
