SIMEON WILSON WINECOFF
LAID TO REST
Funeral Sewvlees Held Sunday After
noon at Center Grove Church.—
Burial Here, —Long Revival Ser
vices Get Underway.—Other Tow
eler News Notes.
Kannapolis, OctT 17. —Funeral ser
vices for Simeon Wilson Winecoff, one
of the leading farmers of this section,
were conducted yesterday afternoon
from Center Grove Lutheran Church,
of which he was a charter member.
Burial was In the church cemetery.
Rev. E. F. K. Roof, pastor of the
church, was in charge of the services,
being assisted by Rev. C. A. Brown,
pastor of Grace and Prosperity Luth
eran churches. A simple ceremony
was used.
Mr. Winecoff died at his home here
Friday afternoon at 4:15 o’clock af
ter an illness that dated back to Christ
mas of 1920. He had suffered with
a kidney malady and five days before
his death all hope for his recovery
had been abandoned.
He was 77 years, five months and
fifteen days old and had passed his en
-1 A3g~arr~:<!i.n"?~:.--Twrrs
tire life in and near this city. At the
age of 21 he was united in marriage
with Miss Saliie Sara Dayvault, of
Concord, and they were the parents
of seven children, six of whom sur
vive.
In early manhood he gave his heart
to God, joining Center Grove Luther
an Church as one of its first members
and since that time his was an in
spiring Christian life. He was one
of the church’s most earnest, upright
and noble guides and one of its most
faithful and useful members. As the
church lost one of its purest men, so
has Kannapolis lost one of its bent
citizens.
Mr. Winecoff leaves a wife, Mrs.
Sallie Sara and the follow
ing children: John, l)avid, Odell and
Bachman Winecoff, of Kannapolis;
Mrs. Mertie M. Winecoff, of Concord,
and George C. Winecoff, of Salisbury.

SALISBURY VS. KANNAPOLIS
In Series of Football Tussles—Towel
ers Clamoring for Crack at Rowan
Eleven.
Kannapolis, Oct. 15.—A series of
three games to determine the inde
pendent football championship of this
section may be carded between the
Kannapolis Independents and the Na
tional Guard team of Salisbury, it was
indicated here today.
If the plans materialize, the two
teams will play one game at Salis
bury, and another in Kannapolis.
Should a rubber become necessary, it
will be staged at China Grove.
The local eleven is considered more
or less of a flivver as a football out
fit, but the p’ayers are strong for a
series of games with the Salisburians
and a rumpus or two would prove in
teresting to fandom in this city.

in Kannapolis under false pretense.
The negro did not testify but several
local merchants appeared against him.
S. Z. Phlieger, general manager of
the Efird Department. Store here, who
sigfied the warrant for the negro’s'ar
rest several days ago, told the court
that McKay, under the assumed name
of Rev. A. Johnson and the flagrant
representation of the colored orphan
age of North Carolina, came to his
store two weeks ago soliciting funds
and merchandise, which he charged
were never sent to the institution, but
were shipped to McKay’s store in
Asheville, where they were placed on
sale.
Chief of Police Boger produced a
half dozen pair of trousers found in
the negro’s place of business that bore
the brand of the Efird Store while
H. P. Cheatam, of the orphanage, es
tified that he had never authorized
McKay or anyone else as agent for his
institution, declaring that various or
ganizations of the state contributed
between fifteen and twenty thousand
dollars annually to support the home.
O. R. Gardner, of the A. & P.
Store; Sam Query, of Query’s shoe
firm, and Charles McKinley, of the
Belk Department Store here, testified
that McKay had visited their estab
lishments on two occasions and each
time they had contributed money to
the cause he represented.
Probable cause was found and the
defendant was bound over to Superior
Court, which is scheduled to begin in
Concord Monday morning. Bond was
fixed at one thousand dollars.
SOLD MOONSHINE TO
POLICE OFFICERS
REPENT IN JAIL
Toweler Town Cops Pull Dirty Pool In
Nabbing Cloudly Hide Gents and
Quantity of Forbidden Juice, But
the Law’s the Law.
, Kannapolis, Oct. 15.—“ Quick sales
and little profit,” a maxim so fre
quently used by merchants the country
over, has placed two negroes of Kan
napolis behind the bars. The negroes
made the mistake of applying the
motto in disposing of a quanity of
‘‘forbidden juice” as the buyers turned
out to be police officers.
According to a police report, Of
ficers Chapman and Nussman, accom
panied by Deputy Sheriff Faggart, of
Concord, went out for a little stroll
this morning to “see what they could
see.” Removing their badges, they
sauntered down the road to the South
ern Railway underpass, which is
about three miles from Toweler Town.
Going up to a little house nearby,
they inquired of Guy and Robert
Morehead, cloudy hide gents, as to
whether they had any moonshine for
sale.
“Yas sah, boss, yas sah,” was the
answer, “but it’s a mighty little bit
we have, but we’ll let you gen’men
have what we do have at a cheap
price,” They dashed into their home
and returned with ten quarts.
Instead of paying for the liquor,
the officers Informed the negroes that
they were “the law.” One of the
darktown boys reached for his pistol
in his hip pocket, but Nussman and
Chapman covered him instantly.
Now the would-be merchants are in
jail here in default of bond, and the
officers are out strolling again.
It’s dirty pool, if you want to make
it that, but as. the saying goes “the
law’s the law.”

FIVE PERSONS KILLED
IN AIRPLANE ACCIDENT
Experimental Plane Crashes From
Low Altitude. Plane’s Motor Stalls,
San Antonio, Texas, Oct. 15.—Five
persons were killed here early tonight
when a local experimental airplane
crashed near Stinson field, the munici
pal airport.
Buel Clark, 32, of Houston, who was
piloting the plane, was killed when
the plane plunged to the ground, as
were Mrs. Ed. Cavanaugh, of San
Antonio, * her eight-months-old daugh
ter, and William Winburn, a reporter
for the San Antonio Light. Ed.
, Cavanaugh, died shortly after the ac
cident in a hospital.
Observers said the plane was flying
at an altitude of about 20Q.feet when
the motor apparently went dead and
the plane crashed into a field.
Georgia Pecan Crop Short.
Valdosta, Ga., Oct. 17.—(INS)—
With the trees practically stripped of
foliage much earlier than usual, there
is visible evidence new now of shortage
in the 1927 pecan crop throughout this
section.
The trees were well loaded at first
with young nuts, but these have
gradually disappeared and most grow
ers are of the opinion that dry weather
resulted in the large percentage of
“drops,” cutting the yield down much
greater than at one time expected.

Chicago, Oct. 13. —Former Con
gressman John Gorman today told
the board of education that every
history text used in the Chicago
schools with one exception is pro-
British in its interpretations, and
charged that William McAndrew, sus
pended superintendent of schools, i*
aware of the fact and approves of tne
condition.
Mr. Gorman, who made an investi
gation of all history books at Mayor
Thompson’s request, appeared before
the board at the trial of Mr. McAn

and conduct unbecoming the office
of superintendent. Thompson made a
campaign pledge to oust Mr. Mc-
Andrew.
