C., Sept. 10. Harry Montgomery, brother of the Columbia captain of last year, and Jic McCach ren, All-Southern basketball guard, held the spotlight as Coach Carl Snavely set aobut this morning to work out a solution to Carolina’s backfield problems. i The two juniors are being given trials in the first string backfield in not one bi two roles, Montgomery alternating with Jackson and Shaffer at left and right half and MeCachren taking turns with Hutchirs and Dun ham in the role of both fullback and blocking back. The results of their work in the second week of practice which got under way today, will undoubtedly have an important bearing on the personnel of the backfield which will get the call to start the opening game PIEDMONT LEAGUE Wilmington 3; Charlotte 6 Asheville 4-4; Norfolk 5-3.

Inspector Lee, working on the case w%th his friend, Timothy Hindi, newspaper reporter, discovers the gun that teas beside the body, found by the janitor, has disap peared. ffolice find an attic room shoo ing signs of inhahitance on the third door ot the English House, scene of the crime. After interview ing Mrs. Reeves, the dead man's widow who insists her husband com mitted suicide, Lee examines other member* ot the Enalish staff in cluding Dr. Wilson, dep rtmenthead; Dr. Henderson. Jamieson, Walker, Miss Turner and Miss Edwards. Ijee and Rlade find the gun that killed Reeves, bearing Jamieson’s initials, in the head of a mop belong ing to Dan, the janitor. Back in the strange attic room Lee comes upon Dr. Henderson and Windsor Hall who claims he is an insurance investigator, representing a company In which Reeves held a policy. Lee contends Jamieson is the murderer but Blade isn’* convinced. (NOW GO oy WITH THE STORYJ CHAPTER 19 “HONESTLY. Inspector." continued Tim. “I’m not sure tvhat I mean. I Just don’t think you’ve grot an an *wer to a puzzle like this when there are pieces lying around that don’t fit In. I don’t KNOW anything. You check xour alibis yourself. I can't believe it has anything to do with the murder. And so 1 don’t want to fell you as long-as you can find it out for yourself. "But I do still believe you ought to arrest Jamieson. I have an idea that might precipitate something and maybe then some of these odd pieces will fall into place.” There was the faintest rustle on the staircase but he did not look up and the inspector missed it. “We’ll have to pick up Dan, too, and Mrs. Reeves." The reporter nodded. "That’ll probably help.” “I’ll go down after the warrants flow and round ’em up right after dinner. Hall might as well come along. Suicide!” he snorted. “All these insurance guys are alike." Tim moved toward the door laugh ing and called. "I’ll be down at head quarters when I get cleaned up at the office.” A few minutes later Ruth, sitting quietly in her office, heard the in spector go down the stairs again with Hall. There came the soft hum of a motor and the detective car pulled away from the curb. Ruth waited until the sound had died away, then peered cautiously out of her office door. No one was In the building but Walker and Wilson, and they were sitting in the latter’s •ffice smoking their pipes and talk ing. The plan that had come to her as she read the reports crystalized while she listened to their muffled voices. But first there was something tlse to do. With one eye on the closed door she called a number. “Hello.” she murmured softly into the phone. “Can you hear me? This Is Ruth Turner. The police are go ing” to arrest Ralph Jamieson tonight and you must help me save him. I know you oan ” She listened for a moment. “But you must.” she pleaded almost sob bing. “Nobody knows where he went last night but you. You’ve got to help me.” % Again she listened and after a mo ment she smiled. “In half an hour.” she said. The door to Wilson’s office opened a minute later and Walker appeared. “Good night, sir.” he said, lingering half-turned in the doorway. “Try to forget it and get a decent sleep to night.” He smiled at Ruth as he passed MRS. E. A. COTTRELL DIES In the afternoon of September 4th, at 4:40 o’clock, Mrs. E. A. Cottrell, wife of Deputy E. A. Cottrell, daugh ter of S. M. Green and Kate Elling ton Green,, die dt her home near Dex ter on Williamsboro Road, after onfy a few days of confinement to her bed. We realize that it is hard to ex press in verbal form our regards and the fine quality of her life; but to her family and community „she was the center and the inspiration of our union. Hers was a life most beauti ful, and the work of the Lord was her life. Our memories and feelings are too deep for utterance, yet we wish to express insofar as feeble words may, our high admiration and appreciation of her personality and for her devotion to her Christ, to her fellowwoman and to her church. Funeral services wree held in Dex ter church at 4 o’clock, September sth, tjeihg conducted by her pastor, Rev. a. G. Usry, and song services by church choir. The church was crowded with sorrowing relatives and friends from variou sections. The floral offerings were many and beau tiful. Th peallbearers were Gary A. Green, William Stanley Islington, E. B. Greene, Henry Greene and Thomas Walters. Flowers were car ried by the girls of the B. Y. P. U. Miss Sudie Green was married td E. D.

She leaves her t husband, these two children, mother, father and three brothers wtih her relatives and friends to honor and serve the Christ she loved.—Reported. llc-MOON-llc TODAY TOMORROW Pat O’Brien—Glenda Farrell —IN— “THE PERSONALITY KID* Mickey McGuire Comedy Mrs. Reeves' hand was as cold as ics^ her office and turned into his own. “Dr. Walker.” she called breathlessly and hurried after him. Leaning against his desk, he lis tened to her as she spoke to him briefly in tones that were almost a whisper, gesturing with her fragile hands excitedly. Puffing on his pipe he leaned there, shaking his head in half-hearted protest. But she refused to listen, putting her hand on his arm as she urged him eagerly. Sud denly he smiled, nodded his head in consent and smiled again. When the girl returned to her own office she slammed shut her type writer desk, took out her purse from a drawer and swiftly pushed into It the bulky manuscript of statements. Tonight at dinner she would go over them again. Then she hurried from the house and up the street. In perhaps ten minutes she halted before the apartment building in which Mrs. Reeves lived. Going in. she hesitated for a moment at the foot of the stairs before she squared her slender shoulders and went bold ly up the steps. The widow greeted her quietly with a faint smile, but Ruth noted that the hand she gave her was as cold as ice. The two eyed each other thoughtfully for a moment —Ruth, a slight, child-like figure in her slim sleeveless frock of yellow silk, with her fine, golden hair blowing about the taut eagerness of her face—and Mrs. Reeves composed, quiet, some how even peaceful, wearing a soft chiffon gown of creamy-white, like the exquisite color of her skin. “I still don’t quite understand. Miss Turner.” said the older woman in her low. rich voice when they were seat ed in the living room. “Why are the police arreting Ralph Jamieson? It’s not in connection with my hus band’s death?” Ruth nodded. “But that is so stupid. Don’t they have to have some sort of proof and some reason?” Ruth leaned forward toward the older woman. “I don't know ail *hey think they’ve found as evidence. But I know that they're going to arrest him tonight. I just heard the in spector tell that reporter so. Though the reporter says he doesn't think he’s guilty." “And the evidence?” The girl’s face flushed a little but her eyes met the woman’s steadily. “They heard about that quarrel in the office yesterday afternoon.

He’s worried about some thing." “About the quarrel?” murmured Mrs. Reeves. She gazed directly at the girl. “What do you believe your self, Miss Turner?’* “I believe in Ralph," said Ruth simply, “because, you see, 1 love him.” Mrs. Reeves eyed the girl keenly, a little surprised. She had seemed incredibly slight and young when she came in. Rut there was a depth, a control to her answer that sug gested an older woman. “But what can I do?” she asked with a slight gesture of bewilder ment. “Ralph is lying about something that happened last night between 9:30 and 10:30.” said Ruth, “because he thinks you are in danger and he can protect you. If you’ll tell what happened then he’ll be safe.” She stumbled a little in embarrassment. “I—l didn’t mean that you should tell it if it DOES put you in danger, of course. But I’m sure Ralph is wrong. If everybody would tell what they know, maybe it would all be cleared up.” She hesitated again, then rushed on more youthfully. “Ralph acts as if he thinks you had done something that would be hard to explain or something. I think it’s horrid of him ” “No. my dear. It’s very sweet of him to want to help me.” She sat in silence for a moment, thinking, then went on. “You must believe me when I tell you that I’d help if T could, but I have no idea what he did except during ten minutes of that hour. He left me before a quarter to ten and I haven’t seen him since.” Ruth started at her. aghast. “I was sure you could fix it if you would.” she said suddenly very near to tears. “Now what can I do? They’ll arrest him and he’ll have to go to Jail after all.” Mrs. Reeves was silent as she gazed at the girl compassionately. “I think I have it.” she began. “It’s just an idea and someone else will have to do the work. You said that Sun reporter thought he was inno cent. didn’t you? He’s the or.e I'll go to. You run along and don t worry any more.” (TO HE CONTI Sl] ED)
