GENERATOR RESPONDS TO TREATMENT: This 4,600-volt generator, owned by the Artificial Ice Co., 416 W. Huron St., has been on the sick-list since April 27 when it lost a duel with a lightning-bolt that invaded the plant during a storm on that date. Here, a technician called in from Detroit makes repairs on the complicated wiring of the big machine's armature. Only damage done by the lightning stroke was to the generator itself, although firemen were called and stood by until the machine could be disconnected from the plant circuit.
