Caption:
House-moving has become fairly commonplace in Ann Arbor, with residences transferred to make way for new buildings, but seldom are the houses routed through business districts. This one, moved to make way for a parking lot for the Muehlig Funeral Chapel on Fourth Ave., was photographed at a busy campus area intersection, S. State St. and N. University Ave. It was being moved to 259 Crest Ave. Strangely, the house was first transported east, on a selected route, although its destination was on the west side of the city. The route was Liberty to State St., then to Rose St., White St., Stadium Blvd., W. Liberty St. and finally to Crest.

Mystery Blast Rips Candy Shop: Brick and concrete rear wall sections were blown out of the Mary Lee candy shop, 332 S. State St., by an unexplained blast that occurred about 11:45 last night. Alley windows at the rear of the shop, as well as rear windows of neighboring establishments, were shattered by the explosion, which detectives said centered around a spot where pressure-type whipped cream dispensers were kept. Above, Detective Albert Heusel and Officer Ben Ball, of the Ann Arbor police department, examine a portion of the shattered masonry. (Story on page 3)
