Five Killed By _y Rum-Crazed Man East Clinton, 111,, iSept. 6.?OFiery bootleg liquor and a thirst for revenge?five persons dead, a aixth wounded and the killer in a hospital with two stomach wounds. That was the police story in brief today of a few minutes of terror and horror in which Fred Blink, 45-yearold farmer and truck owner shot and killed two women and three unarmed men, wounded another, and was shot by Chief of Police Frank Kustes of Fulton, 111., as he attempted to blow off his head with a shotgun. The dead: Mrs. Timothy H. Corrick, Jr., Des Moines. John Hamilton, Fulton farmer. Mrs. Jennie Walters, Sterling, 111., Blink's, housekeeper. Henry Menje, Belvidere, 111. Webb Collier Sterling, brother of Mrs. Walters. Physicians at the Jane Lamb hos-1 pital in Clinton said Joe Collier, aged farm hand, probably would die. Blink taken first to Clinton and then to a hospital in Marrison, 111., was in a dangerous condition. police said the mass sl&ying -was caused by a brain addled by drink and pent-up rancor. Hamilton, Blink's partner for years, they said, rented! from the Chicago and Northwestern railroad in his own name the farm the two hud operated. Hamilton notified Blink that their partnership was ended. In an ugly mood, heated by steady drinking for spiral days, Blink climbed into his truck yesterday afternoon with the announcement that he .was "going to find Hamilton." ! Timothy Corrick, husband of the slain woman, said he was wildly enraged when he left the house. I A few hours later Blink drove up to j the farm house. Corrick saw a shot| gun in his hands and fled for help. I He heard Blink roar: "Come on outside of there? every jone of you." Police reconstructed the ensuing scene from the heap of bodies in the [ farm yard. Hamilton was absent but j the four other victims must have icome hesitatingly from the house, j They saw Blink's gun and sensed, his . mood. One man fled. The others followed. At the hospital Blink mumbled over and over: "I'll get him yet?he can't do that." Police obtained no statement. Fears that he had killed JLee Hamilton, brother of John, and Fred Van Zulden, a companion, were relieved when the two men appeared at their homes last night during a widespread search for them. Antique Bath Tub Found At Flinn Hall An antique bath tub, made of slate, was found in the basement of Flinn hall at the University, of^ South Carolina during the process of moving the structure to make way for the World War Memorial, plans on which are now in progress. The old bath tub, resembling a box rather than a bath tub, is about five feet long, three feet wide and three feet deep. Its sides are perpendicular rather than rounded. The tub was well hidden in the basement, a place seldom visited, even by janitors. In moving the building the walls were cut loose from the basement, leaving bare its contents. Dr. L. T. Baker, president of the university, said the old tub would be turned over to the gardener there, Mr. Timman, for use as a plant box. ?Friday's State.

Sept. 8.?The Farmers' Week address by Dr. Kexford Tug well, Under Secretory of Agriculture, dealing primarily with the present and future adjustment of cdtton production under the Agricultural Adjustment Administration, has been published by the Extension Service as Circular 183 for general distribution and for use in connection with plans for the adjustment of production in 1986. A brief foreword by Dr. W. W. Long, director of the Extension iService, points out the importance of Dr. Tugwell's address towards a clearer understanding of the adjustment program and the part farmers must play in making it a success. A companion publication is Circular 134, Controlled Production of Cotton, by Dr. W. W. Long. This is an address delivered recently by Dr.' Long before the Columbia Kotary Club, in which he discussed production of cotton, foreign markets for American cotton, and their bearing on the iSouth's great money crop. Dr. Long stresses also the point that the AAA program is based on the logical principle of adjusting the I supply of cotton to the demand both I domestic and foreign so that the producers may have greater assurance of returns that will mean reasonable profit rather than loss. Both publications are for free distribution and may be had from the Publications Department at Clemson College upon request. Young Woman: "I would like to open an account at this bank, please."
