BOX DEAL WINNER OF
CHARLESTON CONTEST
Peggy Simpson Pats Second Prise,
Fred Sweat Third and Docile Mc-
Corkte Fourth In State wise Content
Finals.
Displaying great agility, a variety
of motions, and a baffling change of
pace, Roy Deal, of was, last
night chosen by the acclaim of the
audience as the winner in the finals
of the statewide Charleston contest 'at
the Concord Theatre. He will re
ceive a sliver loving cup, properly en
graved’ for his exertions. The epp
will be on display at the theatre next
week.
'Second place went to Peggy Simp
son, local favorite who failed- only by
the margin of a few hand-caps of win- ,
ning first prise. On the first ballot it
seemed that she was sure to win, but
on the tenth her supporters became
fickle and she was relegated- to second
place.
Fred Sweat, also local talent, came ,
in for third place when the audience
refused to let sex make them play
favorites. He was chosen from be
tween two girls, and over them. His
spiral gyrations were the feature of
his Charlestoning.
The last place in the money was ,
awarded to Miss Lucile McCorkle,
dainty lass from Charlotte. .
The winners of the childrens’ con- :
test, the finals of which took place |
yesterday afternoon, were presented i
to the audience. They showed why j
they had been chosen winners by an-||
swering the applause of the crowd ]
with a few snappy steps. They were: ,
Mildred Barbour. Concord, first prize, ,
and two pupils of Miss Helen Powell, j
of Charlotte, second and third prize j
winners, respectively.

Will be sene. For Manager Basing
er has acquired the services of Hat
'cy. Hard hitting outfielders from Al
bemarle, who was a great favorite
luring the time he played with Gib
son last season. Hatley’s Worth is
shown by the fact that he was elected
by his teammates at the University
of North Carolina to lead them as
captain during the 1927- season.
The acquisition of Hatley gives
Gibson a slugging, brainly. well-nigh
itipregnuble outfield. It is doubtful
if any amateur team in the stute eaii
boast of three such first class out
fielders as Richards, Halley aud Jar
rett. In Smith a good substitute will
be available. In both offense and
defense this trio should show its heels,
;o any set of amateur outfielders they"
will he- pitted against.

The Supreme Court haa decided that
there was no error in hie trial ««
that he mnat aeree hia sentence. But
examination of the record, in the case
*oW that there ia «auoh room for
doubt aa to whether Messer ia reaHy
guilty of having killed his wife,
apite the fact that he ha, been toed,
convieted ntid his conviction upheld
by the Supreme Court.
Here are the forts In ' foe ease a«
presented at the trial : Meaner is Ira
years old and his wifWabout the same
age. They have had' nine children,
seven of whom are still living. 'Bier
have lived together in their little i
mountain home for years in pew .
and quiet. They were not given t»
quarrelling or disagreements, accord
ing to neighbors who had known them
for years.
One Sunday afternoon not long ago.
Messer went to spend the afternoon
with a sqp who lived ■ about a mile
and a half Sway, on up the mountain.
Later in the afternoon, Mrs. Messer ;
also went to see the same son. While
there they had several drinks of old
moonshine, which is not uncommon in
such mountain homes. Both Messer
and her son admit that Mrs. Messer
had a drink or two too many and
that at the time Messer and his wife
started to leave, it was difflcult for
his wife to walk, apparently from
the.effects of the mountain moonshine.
It was also late, almost dark when
they started on their way down the
mountain trail, and a terific rain
storm, accompanied by a strong wind,"
was in progress. Messer bad' also
been drinking, but was not intoxicat
ed. he claims.
The State at the trial claimed that
Messer evidently became angered at (
his wife because of her inability to
walk down the mountain and that he
eventually became so angered that he
struck her and knocked her from the
narrow and slippery trail. Witnesses
told of finding evidences of a struggle
and the jury found him guilty.
But Messer tells a straight story.
(Ami the Story of their lives together
{in the small mountain home where
(they had' itaised a large family; tends j
to substantiate his version of the her- !
rible tragedy.
He maintains that as they were 1
•walking down the slipper, precipitous
trail in the dark, with a striving rain
I fulling, that Mrs. Messer slipped sev
eral times, and fell to her knees,
though he was supporting her with
his arm. Finally, he days, she
stumbled over a big rock gn the trail,
and they both rolled down a bank
and landed agalust a boulder. He !
struggled back up to the trail .with
her. not realizing that
Finally, when he came to the reajjga
j tion that she was dead, and when he i
| no longer had strength to carry her,
Ihe left her body at the side of* the
I trail, went home alone, bitched his
! horse to the sled, and came back for
his wife's body, took it home and
placed it tenderly on the bed.
