FACELESS PROTESTERS -- Iranian students of Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti hide their faces from the cameras as they picket Friday in front of Ann Arbor City Hall. The picket line was to support their demand that charges be dropped against one of their number, Mohamed Moghadum, 19, of Ypsilanti, who was arrested one month ago on the University of Michigan campus under a little-known state law which makes it a crime to wear a mask during a public demonstration. The Iranian students say they must hide their identity to protect themselves and their relatives from retaliation by the Shah of Iran's secret police.

Robert and Patty Creal, married 63 years this summer, are both board members for the Washtenaw County Historical Society with deep family roots in the Ann Arbor area. In this wide-ranging interview, Bob, a retired lawyer, and Patty, a former teacher, talk about their parents' and grandparents' Ann Arbor. They also paint a vivid portrait of Ann Arbor during the 1940s and 1950s with stories of growing up on opposite sides of town during the World War II era of rationing and Victory Gardens to a courtship involving no less than two iconic Ann Arbor institutions. Bob also discusses the signal achievements of his father, Cecil O. Creal, who served as mayor of Ann Arbor from 1959-1965.

One of the first of the city's foodhandlers to report of X-rays for tuberculosis in the basement of City Hall this morning was Mrs. Leverett H. Kelly of 1107 Oakland Ave., wife of the manager of Miller's Dairy Farm Store at 1219 S. University Ave. Mrs. Kelly qualified for classification as a foodhandler because she sometimes helps out her husband in the store. Approximately 800 to 1,000 foodhandlers are expected to be given the tests through Tuesday. It is the first time in the city that such a widespread check on the foodhandlers has been attempted. A State Health Department technician stands by as Mrs Kelly is given the X-rays.
