Rival’s Contest
Ends With Riot
DETROIT, Nov. '— OPl-^A
thousand howling, fist-swin z-
ing fans poured from the
stands last night and broke
up a hotly contested hi{:h
school football game with a not
in which three persons were knifed.
Two I football players were
knocked unconscious. A policeman
was slightly injured. Scores were
battered and bruised. .
Fighting between players in the
final minutes of the game between
Melvindale and River R o b g e
schools set off the riot.
Passions had risen to fevbr pitch
as Melvindale struggled/to over
come a one-touchdown advantage
held by its old rival. Both teams
were unbeaten.
Mrs. Violet Higgins, 34, a negro,
was in serious condition at Waype
County Hospital with a stab wound
in the back. Her husband, Branch,
44, was released pending investiga
tion of fplonious assault, police Lt.
Stanley Machurski said.
Higgins told police about four
white youths pulled him and his
wife from their car a block from
the stadium after the riot.
Officers were checking two
knives taken from the youths to
determine which had stabbed Mrs.
Higgins. They were investigating
Higgins’; counter-attack on the
youths.
Achurski said police believed no
racial issue was involved in the
stadium fight although the squab
ble that set it off was reportedly
between a white and a colored
player.
The Melvindale team was an all
white Their opponents were mix
ed. The fight was along school
lines rather than racial.
Although the game was never
completejd, River f Rouge was
awarded a 7-0 victory.
