THE SUNDAY CimuX, ASIIEVILLE, N. C, DECEMBER 28, 1919. COURT DOES NOT BELIEVE E Characterizes Girl's Story as Fabrication Scouts Bobbery Idea. , KNOXVILLE. Tcnn., D.c 27. Judge T. A. It. Nelson, of the Knox county criminal court, in setting aside the verdict of murder in the first de gree against Maude Moore, confessed "layer of LeRoy D. Harth, wealthy automohilo dealer while on a Joy ride, declared In effect that he did not c lieve either the state's theory of rob bery and resulting murder, or tho defendant's contention that Harth at tempted to assault her nnd that she shot him in defense of her life and honor. Judge Nelson outlined what he call ed a third theory, which ho took from a careful analysis of tho evidence. He said It wan his opinion that Harth and the Moore woman went on the Joy rldo for Immoral purposes, that Harth was Intoxicated and that an argument ensued over the question of money, Harth becoming angry and attacked the woman, who shot him. Judge Nelson characterized Miss Moore's story as a fabrication from I Here Are the Demands - of Laborers in Spain WASHINGTON, Dec 27.

Tho contention that the woman jvent out to rob Harth was characterized as absurd by the Judge. If Maude Moore had come before the court and told tho truth, said the court, she probably would havo been freed, and most certainly would have received nothing more than a verdict of voluntary manslaughter. Miss Moore was returned to Jail, but it was expected that a new bond would be made for her tonight or tomorrow. The motion for a new trial in the Maude Moore case came up today, following her conviction In criminal court here a few weeks ago, when the Jury which heard the evidence re turned a verdict of murder In the first degree, with mitigating circumstances and placed her punishment at 21 years In the state penitentiary.

I have just finished reading a story from the pen of art English expert, to the effect that their great golf trio Vardon, Taylor and Braid are sllD- ping. Offhand I should say that this critic has become unnecessarily alarmed and Is but following British custom when their idols in sport fail ta come through, as this triumvirate failed to come through this past sea son, of setting up a wail. 1 never could find out why the r.ngiisn are so prone to wail at the first failure of a sport idol. Yet we know that rAPMillv n'hnn 0.,n.Mll. " ...... .. . . ' .. 1 . .It'll -KKnouaea out tneir neavywelght Beck ett so quickly they were dumbfound M. So it is in golf since Mitchell ana Duncan, far younger Dlavera. won most every title from the Big Three in is past season. The Ena-lish lm meuiaieiy inougnt tne latter were aone Their alarm dates back to tho time wnen Taylor, Braid and Vardon fall ed to qualify In the News of the World tournament. Of course this was an unusual and unexpected ' re sult. But these three players cannot repel the onslaughts of the younger golfers always and the sooner the English realise hls the more wilt 'be ineir enjoyment oi goiL There is really no ca,use for alarm over the play of England's triumvir ate. If my memory serves me right they have between themselves won sixteen of the past twenty-one chara pionships. fheir successes date as far uuck as me wiy mnvues. xney nave been competing? soma thirty years Each is at least fifty years old. During the war there was little golf played by anyone in England. But the younger players like Mitchell and Duncan were engaged In the-serious business of war. Consequently upon their return to the links, they were keyed to concert pitch and filled with enthusiasm for taking; up the always maintain that an what the younger'golfers of England possessed enthusiasm. As I figure il Vardon. Braid and Taylor have mere ly lost the keenness for competition and as a result the old Incentive to win was not there. It looks to m as though they are far from done for: No one can convince me that Harrj Vardon has fallen. Vardon today, like the other two, faces a harder task that ever in that there aro more good players to defeat than ever before In English golf. British golfing ranks are becoming filled more and more each year with younger men of splen did ability. To my mind England is going through today what America has been experiencing the past ten years. You could almost pick the winner of any of our title events over a decade ago whereas today you know that any one of a dozen cracks are likely to come through. Before the war there waa a similar condition in England.
