WOUNDED YOUTH IS STILL AT LIBERTY WITH PAL IN JAIL Officers Unable So Far to Locate Lorry Moore—Lin wood Helms’ Wounds Are Said to Be Not Serious. Lorry Moore, wanted by county of , ficers for the “temporary use” of an automobile, is still at liberty, so far as officers here know. The 18-year old youth had not been arrested last night and as they have heard nothing to the contrary this morning local of ficers presume that he* has not yet been-arrested. In the meantime his pal, Linwood Helms, resides in the county jail here. Helms was lodged in the jail Tuesday light when arrested in Kannapolis. It s charged that Helms and Moore j stole the Chevrolet touring car belong ng to a Mr. Fortner, of Kannapolis. Helms denies that the car was stolen, : aiming that he and Moore just “bor rowed” it for a joy ride. The ride was dramatically halted when Mr. Fortner, armed with a shot - gun, passed the pair in Tinoup, a Kannapolis suburb, and opened fire when they ignored his command to halt. Both boys were struck by shot but n examination by County Health Of ficer Caldwell yesterday disclosed that mly four of the shot struck Helms. None- of them entered his body and his wounds are not serious. Moore went to the home of relatives with whom he boarded in Kannapolis mmediately after being shot and ex changed his bloody shirt for a clean one. He has not been seen since. The amount of blood on the shirt dis carded led officers to beHeve he re ceived more shot than Helms.

I . : ? «-■ I J I SMART BUYERS COME HERE ( , , ~, ‘ ... . We’re not getting all the tire business in town. We never expect to. But we’re getting our share and our business is growing constantly. • The reason for this is that car owners have found our location is conven- j ient, our service prompt, efficient and courteous, our merchandise of the highest quality, aud our prices surprisingly low. As a matter of fact, and we realize it sounds pretty strong, if every car owner in town who is not buying from U 6, really knew what we had to offer, we’d come pretty close to having a monopoly on the tire business here. We honestly believe this, because we’re already selling to scores of the brainiest tire buyers in town—smart people who look twice and think three times before they buy anything. If we can satisfy them and keep on doing it —we can please you, too. Y orke&W adsworth Co, Q -i / n I 1 j; New Colonial Bedroom Suites [I Values the likes of which you seldom see!
