being shot in the leg with a sholf*
gun. He was taken to the Elkin
hospital, where his leg was later
amputated. - ,
In a statement made to Deputy
Sheriff Ray Graham, who was
working with Sheriff A. L. iL
score on the case, Plnnix said
from his hospital bed that he was
shot by Clem Holcoihb, a young
'white man of the same comm uni
ty.
Pinnix related that Holcomb
came to where he was guarding
a store of corn against thieves,
and said, "I’m going to shopt
your leg pff.” Whereupon, he
said, Holcomb shot him.
Holcomb’s side of the story is
that he knew nothing of the
shooting until the ne.rt day in
Elkin, when he learned the sher
iff was looking for him. Finding
that the sheriff was in ElkCn, he
sent word for him to meet him
pt a certain place in the city,
which he did. Holcomb told the
sheriff that on Friday night he.
Red Gatton, Cliff Collins, and
two small Holcomb boys went
possum hunting, and did not see
Pinnix. He related tbat be and
the party had heard a shot while
hunting, but knew nothing about
it. The two men and the two
boys substantiated this statement
according to Sheriff Iik^core.
Holcomb made bond for $r>00
before Magistrate J. S. Hinson for
a hearing on the casfe when Pin

Washington, Nov. 13. —
Amendments to the defense
housing critical list and to
interpretation No. 1 of this
list, announced today by the
priorities division, restore to
good standing the use of oil
burners in defense housing
construction on the eastern
seaboard.
Because of petroleum
shortage Axisting at the time
the original critical list was
issued, the acquisicion of oil
burners for defense housing
units in certain eastern states
was not assigned the priori
ties assistance applicable to
other building material.
It has been found desirable
to further encourage con
struction for rent, rather
than for sale, and this has
been done by assigiiing high
er preference ratings than
formerly to houses which
will be rented by defense
workers, since rental is bet
ter suit^ than purchase in
their needs. Amendmcnte
become effective Nov. 16tb.
