INDIANAPOLIS RACE IS
MARRED BY ACCIDENTS
One Driver Probably Fatally Injured
and Several Others Slightly Hurt.
Indianapolis, Ind., May 30.—( A »)—
H. Kohlert. n garage owner of St.
Charles. 111., driving as relief for
Lecklider. of Elgin, 111., was probab
ly fatally injured when his car tan
gled with the machine driven by Cliff
Bergere. a Coast driver, on the south
turn of the Indinna]>olit? Speedway,
as,they were hitting off the 190th lap
of the S(H) mile Memorial Day classic.
Kohlert was picked up for dead,
but he was still alive when he reached
the hospital, but physician*? held out
no hope for him. His skull was frac
tured. and he was internally injured.
Bergere was slightly injured, and
was able to return to the race after
replacing two rear wheel*?.
Spectators got the first gasp when a
car driven by Norman Batten of
Brooklyn, burst into flames in full
view of the 143.000 spectator*? in the
stands, as leaders were finishing the
first 50 miles.
With smoke and bLazing gasoline
enveloping the speeding car. Batten
heroically stuck to the machine, driv
ing while standing up nutil he could
bring it to a stop. If he had jumped
he might have been dashed to death,
leaviug the blazing car driverless to
crash into the grandstands. Batten
was seriously burned -about his hands
and body.
Before the first 100 miles was fin
ished there were three other accidents.
The car driven by Jules E’.ingboe, of
Memphis, smashed into the retaining
wall on the north turn of the track
as Ellingboa was on the sixtieth mile.
The machine was wrecked. Elling
boe was reported ta have sustained
broken legs.
Dave Lewis, also hit the north wall
when his front axle broke. Lewis
escaped injury. Harry Hartz scraped
the wall turning into the stretch, but
pulled into the pits under his own
power, only to go out. a short time
later. The veterans of the grind,
Harry Hartz, Peter de Paolo, winner
of the 1925 events, Bennie Hill and
Leon Duray were all declared out of
the race for various cause*? before the
first 100 miles was finished.

Indianapolis, May 30. — (JP) —Frank
Lockhart, 23 year-old youth from Los
Angeles, was setting a death defying
pace to retain leadership in the 500
miles automobile race today when the
250 mile marker was reached.

point after having lost the lead mom
entarily when he stopped one minute
and thirty-seven seconds to change

“SEEK THE TRUTH ’
DR. LEWIS ADVISES
SCO! GRADUATES
President of the Seminary
Tells Members of Senior
; Class That Truth Will
j Lead Them to Success.
PICTURES^WAY
OF THE LIGHT
Outlines Acts of Jesus and
Tells Hearers to Model
Their Lives After That of
the Christ.
“Buy the truth and sell it not”,
from Proverb#? 20.23. was the text of
Dr. T. R. Lewis, president of Scotia
Seminary, in his baccalaureate sermon
to the graduating e’.nss of the sem
inary Sunday afternoon.
The sermon wa*? delivered in West
minster Presbyterian Church and was
heard by a large congregation.
l)r. Lewis began his sermon by
quoting the text, and then said:
Again, ac? on two former occasions,
I come to you with a proverb. The
core of this text is the truth. Let
us therefore at the outset ask our
selves. “What is Truth?”
But let us not ask with the despair
of a soul that has sought in vain, nor
with the cold, frivolous scepticism,
the utter indifference of the Roman
governor who cared more for Caesar
than for conscience; but with an ar
dent desire to know the truth that
the truth may make us free.
What then is truth?
To the Hebrew the root of the idea
of truth was that which was propi>ed. |
What it? propped. i»? firm, stable, firm
true.
-To the Greek it was that which
was not hidden. It was open and
unconcealed.
Our English word truth come*? from
an old word “Trow" use only once
1 believe in the New Testament which
meant to think, trust or believe.
Truth then was what one trusted or
believed to be a fact.
If we' were to attempt a philoso
pher’s definition of truth, by which I
mean that to which men have been led
by the study of all they see in the
world apart from what God has re
vealed In the Bible, I suppose it would
be correct to *?ay that truth is the
ultimate reality.
But no one can get, any real satis
faction from that definition because it
is too vague aud impersonal. It will
not satisfy his deepest longings nor
solve the mysteryies of time and eter
nity. So we want some better defi
nition of truth than that
When we open the Bible we are led
by its first word to God the Source,
Sovereign and final End of all things
unto whom be glory forever. Amen.
In these last daye God has snoken
to us in his Son. John in that won
derful introduction to his record which
contains the germs of all the follow
ing flower and fruit makes this re
markable statement: “The law was
given by Moses; grace and tru*?t came
by Jesus Christ.” There is a sharp
contrast between Moses aud Christ.
The spell of that contrast is upon us
the moment we utter the names Motses,
Christ.
Grace and truth were both known
in Moses' day but they were minis
tered by Moses and were therefore
shadowy, partial, incomplete. There
is a difference between the twilight of
the morning and the clear shining of
the perfect day. So grace and truth
in perfection and glory came by Jesus
Christ. And then he goes on to
point out what he means and how it
comes to pass that truth came by
.Teus Christ by saying: “No man hath
•seen God at any time: the only be
gotten Son, who is in the bosom of
the Father, he hath declared him.”
Now we can return to the question
with which we began, “What is
Truth?” and we have the answer:
truth is God perfectly made known.
Jesus is the Word. He is in the
bosom of the Father. Aud dwelling
among men in human form teaching
and working He is the expression of
God’s inmost thought. And frbra
these words draw this simple defini
tion of truth which ought to be to
each one of us of great price: truth
is what God thinks about things.
Now we can apply this simple defi
nition to God’s works in creation and
government of the world apart from
what is shown us in the Bible.
What is the science of astronomy?
So far as it is an exact science, so
far as men have discovered facts about
the sun. moon and stars, they have
discovered just what God has thought
and still thinks of them. Just as a
building is the visible, material ex
pression of the thoughts of the archi
tect so the heavens and the earth are
the expression of the thought of God.
For He spake, and He thought before
He spake, and it was done. He com
manded and it stood fast. To David
the/ heavens were a silent but uni
versal witness to the glory of God and
in modern times one devout astron
omer declared, right in line with our
definition of truth, that in his study
and the finding of the facts of his
science he was thinking God’s thoughts
after Him. God said. Let there be
light: and there was light. No one
has been able to tell us as yet what
light is. But the inspired explana
tion of its beginning, its coming to
be, is proof that it is the expression
of’ God’s thought. And if the sci
entists ever do find out the truth about

CAVEATORS TO WILL OF
JI'DGE BROWN WIN VERDICT
Washington Stunned By Swift Con
clusion After Lengthy Trial.
Washington, N. C., May 28.—After
a deliberation of only Ift minutes, the
jury in the Judge Brown will case
at 4:10 this afternoon brought in a
verdict in favor iof the caveators and
Mrs. Brown thereby lost her right to
the SoftO.ftftft estate which the judge
luul left her in the paper writing he
had made on January 5,• 1926, three
months before his death.
Prepared to wait for two or three
days for a verdict and almost confi
dent that the jury would have diffi
culty in reaching a decision, Washing
ton this evening was almost stunned
.with the swift conclusion of the-fam
ous lawsuit. Tm» general- Imression
on the part of the hundreds who had

week was that a mistrial would result.
Everybody was of the opinion Mint a j
verdiet would only be announced after I
a lengthy deliberation.
Following a charge of two hours
and 10 minutes from Judge Frank A.
Daniels, in which he outlined the evi
dence and submitted the various con-,
tentions made by propounders and
caveators, the jurors left the box
where they had been sitting for prac
tically three weeks and took with
them a brief issue: “Is the paper writ
ing, dated January 5, 1926, propound
ed for probate, and every part thereof,
the last, will and testament of Judge
George H. Brown?” Their answer,
when they returned to the box was a
flat “no.”

The annual pilgrimage to the na

President Douinergue, of France, and
one from President Coolidge; who saw j

SLAYS OCTOPUS
HOLDING BODY
Diver Wins Fierce Battle With
Devilfish Clasping Drowned Cook
of Tug Warren.
Port Townsend, Wash., May 30.
—A huge octopus, bearing in its
tentacles the body of ?>ne t»f five men j
\\-ho went down on the tug Warren
early Tuesday, gave up it*? human
j prize after an hour's battle, fifty
I feet under water, with A. E. Hook,
ja diver. Hook related hi«s story her.*
last night upon arriving with the
body.
The diver was under water re
pairing a fish net. he said, when lie
sighted a devilfish making his way ]
along the bottom of the sound with
the body in it*? tentacles.
Seizing a pike pole, Hook attacked
the sea monster.
Minutes wore on as the diver
and longed at the octopus,
which gave savage battle but grimly
he d to the bodyi Time after time
the devilfish warded off the spear
with the power of it*? flinging arms.
The water was becoming cloudy.
Centering his thrust*? on the middle
section of the spiderlike demon.
Hook literally cut hi*? tentaoled ad
versary to ribbons before the death
struggle was ended.
The octopus sank back, apparent
ly mortally wounded, and lay on the
muddy bottom of the Sound while
Hook pried loose the tentacles from
around the body.
In Port Townsend the body wa*?
tentatively identified as that of H-
Healey, cook on the ill fated tug.
Attempts were being made to get in

None of the bodies of -the other
four men aboard the tug has been
recovered. The craft dropped out of
sight early Tuesday morning while
en route from Seattle to Victoria.
TELUS STUDENTS TO
FOLLOW CHRIST LIFE
Davidson Students Hear Annual
Sermon by Rev. Dwight Chalmers.
Davidson, N. C.. May 29. —“M e
have toned down the word “Chris
tian” to match our way of living
rather than toning up our lives to
match the word,” adverred Rev.
Dwight Chalmers, pastor of the
Church by the Side of the Road at
Greensboro, in delivering the annual
sermon before the Y. M. C. A. here
tonight, using as his subject the
question, “Do we Deserve the Name
‘Christian’?” This was the second
event of the Davidson College com
mencement program.
At the beginning of the sermon
Mr. Chalmers defined the word
“Christian” as it was interpreted by
modern day professors of Christ and
as it applied in the days of early
Christian history. In the former in
stance a Christian was one who pro
fessed certain beliefs about Christ,
while the latter was one who follow
ed Christ.
“We only grasp the full meaning
of the word ‘Christian as we study
the life of Christ” said the Greens
boro pastor. “To learn of Him anl
to become like Him is the main
business of us all as long as we
live.”

MI ST KEEP RECORD OF
MOTOR LAW VIOLATORS
Officers Before Whom Defendants Are
Tried Must Keep Records Straight.
Tribune Bureau
Sir Walter Hotel.
Raleigh, May 3ft. —Full and com
plete records of violations of the new
motor vehicle laws must be kept by
the justices of the peace, police judges
or others before the cases may come,
for which the violator in each instance
must pay a fee of sft cents in addition
to the regular tine, which in most
cases is considerably higher under the
1927 laws than heretofore, it was I
pointed out here today by Sprague Sil
ver, chief of the Automotive Bureau,
and C. W. Roberts, of the Carolina
Motor Club. These records must then be !
sent in the Motor Vehicle Commis
sioner here in Raleigh, where they
will be tiled and recorded against each
holder of a motor license who is in
volved.
Thus the motor vehicle bureau will,
be able to build up a complete record
of lnw violations, the gravity of the
violation and by whom made.
Specifying that an abstract of each
one involving violation of the act
shall be forwarded to the motor ve
hicle commission, Section 63 of Article
i Vl* makes it plain that this require
ment shall not be deemed to make
such court a court of record. The
abstract must be certified and the
magistrate, judge or clerk forwarding
same will be allowed a 50 cents fee
which will be taxed as costs against
the person convicted.
Within Ift days after any final judg
ment of conviction of any violation
of any provisions of the uniform act,
j clerks of courts of record shall send
i to the commissioner a certified copy
of such judgment of conviction. Copies
! of judgment shall also be forwarded to
] the commission upon conviction of any
j person of manslaughter or any other
l felony in the commission of which a
j vehicle was used.
Attention is also called to the fact
that drivers are required to stop in
case of accident and give full inform
ation as to name, address, license num
ber and other data and render any as
sistance possible. Conviction of fail
ure to stop following an accident, en
tails a penalty of imprisonment for
no t less than 30 days nor more than
one year in city or eoifht.V jnTls 'or ■ iii
the state prison for not less than one
nor more than five years or by tine or
not less than SSOO nor more than

alone. The output from one group of
plants alone, where such is privately
used, amounted to more than 250,-
000.000 kilowatt hours, bringing the
