cusslon on college life with Mrs.; is so great that the next general
conference 'April, l!),r)2, at ban
Francisco) will be asked to more
than double its financial support
of the 10 Methodist seminaries."
He explained that such funds, if
granted, would be devoted to ex
pansion of faculties, libraries and
1 similar facilities rather than new
buildings.
He reported that the Duke Divin
ity School has a current enrollment
of 231 "selected graduate stu
dents," the largest in the school's
25-year history,
Despite the record number of
ministerial students, the Methodist
Church has a shortage of preach
ers. Dean Cannon said. The church
needs 1.000 more new ministers
each year than the total now being
graduated by the 10 seminaries.
A member of the Duke raculty
since 1919, Dean Cannon was ap
pointed to his present post last

place before the trial Mayor Wav
was smiling and cheerful, whereas
grimness exuded from Prosecutor
Ward." A delay was incurred when
defense attorney Francis discov
ered that the sheriff had neglected !
to bring the little notebook "filled I
with figures" along with the other j
evidence. ,The sheriff went hack
to get it, and, except for other
whispers, the court sat waiting in 1
suence. . -.-
When all was ready the action
moved as swiftly as a well rehears
ed drama. In fact it moved almost
too swiftly, the defense finding it
necessary to interrupt in order to
interject the "Not Guilty" plea.
The only witness called was the
Sheriff who merely testified as to
what he had found and done. No
cross examination was given, des
pite the "Not Guilty" plea, Mavor
Way passed sentence. Immediately
an appeal was made and accepted;
me evidence impounded by the
mayor, bond set, and the case and
court dismissed.
A short time later, the curtain
went up on a new act. F.B.I, agents,
moving quickly, arrested Greer,
re-tmpounded the evidence," hound
ureer over to the next term of
Federal Court in Asheville. He
arranged bond at $1000.00. . The
acnon came as'no shock t0 the
sheriff, but other officials, includ
ing Mayor Way, seemed rather sur
prised, All refused comment, how
ever, except the sheriff who said:
mis .thing ts bigger than Way
nesville, The Federal boys are
working on every thread of a
gambling web that covers the whole
country in- the hope that one of
the threads will lead them to the I
center before it breaks."
As regards the county, however
the sheriff had something else to !
say. "Gambling is a vicious thing I
mai siriKes at the very core of
county, as well as national well;
being. The people' in the county !
want it stopped. It will be stop.
ped. regardless of who, what, nr
when." IL
