Tuberculosis Fraud If, Brought To Light Los Angeles, Calif — What lederal authorities called one of the largest ; "tuberculosis cure" swindles ever perpetrated in the West was brought to light here with the Indictment of five persons on charges of using the malls to defraud. Charles T. Ay-’ock and Glen S, Jordan, named In indictments, were arrested and bond fixed at $10,000 and $5,000, respectively. Telegraphic warrants for the arrest of Adolph Beyer, George T. tester, and Mar tin H Lester, were sent to the United States marshal at Denver, Colo. Tost office Inspectors said the "guaranteed cure” preparations ex ploited by the defendants had vic timized more than 10.000 persons to the extent of about, $1.000 000 over a period of several years. Government chemists and medical experts were unanimous In the statement that tho preparations sold by the alleged combine were worth less in treating tuberculosis. Government agents said the first of the so-called medical Institutes was operated in 1010 by Ayrock. A charge of fraud issued in De cember, 1927, prohibited delivery of spall to either himself or the Ay coclc Medical Institute and its allied organisations. Tha second fraud order was ls kued last March with the discovery that Ayoock had turned the man agement over to Jordon. From him the Lester brothers were aald to have obtained a contract to oper ate a Denver office. 1 -BILLIARDS Cleveland Cigar Store loW Charles Bid*., Corner Vtsde sad W. Warren St*. DR. H. C.

HOEY Hurling Of Hamrick Brings Third State Title To Shelby High (Continued from page one.) he had on the bail could not be hit regularly and consistently for only three Rneford batters were caught out by the Shelby outfielders, “Whltey" Bumgardner snagging the trio. From the outset, even during the four scoreless innings in the begin ning, Shelby seemed to have an edge on the Raeford team, and It was not until the ninth that the Joyous Shelby fans really got wor ried. A couple of Billy Hodglns boys got on base, one by a walk, and one by a hit. With the tying runs on base the fidgeting started in Shelby's portion of Emmerson field. After some shaky" moment* two outs were checked up but both runners were still on and the game could still be nothing but a heartache to the Cleveland county group. The Raeford hitter worked Hamrick for two balls, then Hamrick settled and shot over two strikes. Thre*-two, a runner pawing the ground around third, knowing that he was to run on the next heave regardless. In oame the ball. It was one of Ham rick's fast ones, the singing type he uses to write finis to his games. And as the ball came In the runner on base started digging for home. The Raeford hitter swung and miss ed, but Farris dropped the ball, and It vu then that a dread silence en veloped the yelling Shelby fans. But another minute and it was a state title for Shelby. Farris threw the hitter out at first and the Rae ford player who dashed home had nothing more to do than pack up the bats and return home with their easier title and nothing more. The Hitting Part. Rogers. Raeford catcher, led the hitting of the day with three singles, while Hamrick and Poston rankod next with two blows each, one of Hamrick's being a double. Other ex tra base blows w'ere triples by Har relscn, Bethune. and McBryde, and a double by "Milky” Oold.

The resignation last week of Qapt. B, L. Smith as superintendent of the Rutiierfordton-Spindale school system was a shock to the communities he served so faithfully for many years. A man of dynamic force, great strength of character, a teacher of unusual ability, and. finally, but not least, a deeply re ligious man, he has given to the county as a whole and especially to the schools Immediately under his leadership and guidance the very best within him In future years Capt.. Smith will undoubtedly de velop further through greater op portunities. Rutherfordton’s loss will be Shelby's gain. Of that there can be no doubt. The ‘Friendly City" is as sured of a city superintendent; of schools that has been proved; a real man in all the many meanings of the word; a man who stands for better education facilities., better buildings, longer terms. accurate records. standardization. better equipment and better textbooks, higher professional standards and economy of operation; a man, In short, who considers carefully any problem, viewing It from all angles, before he will give an answer— Capt. Smith makes no empty promises. Few men in Rutherford county have as many and as firm friends as lias Capt. Smith; he has taken a prominent part in any civic or ganization which has been worthy of support; a faithful and consist ent Christian; a worthy number of tile Rutherford county and Kiwanls clubs, he has taken Interest in the communities wherein he has lived, he has not merely talked but has worked diligently. Capt. Smith will make good in his new position; undoubtedly the more ample facilities for advancement in his chosen profession he will have In Shelby influenced his decision to resign the superintendency he held here with great credit. Capt. Smith's future career will be watch ed with Interest, In conclusion the words of St. Paul, "And now abld eth, faith, hope charity, these three; but the greatest of tliesp is char ity." apply to Capt. Benjamin L. Smith. Tough Luck, Fellow. New Yorlfl—Adolph Lewisohn, phanthroplst, who will be 80 years old Monday, has one woe. His golf game is rotten. But he sir.gs bet ter than he did ten years ago. Still president of half a dozen mining companies, he visits his office thrice a week. Com Stalks Are Used As Big Aid For “Snow Break” Pierre, S. D.—Advisability ot planting corn on the north and west sides of highways to prevent snow drifts is being studied by farm organizations at the suggestion of Frank D. Kricbs, state secretary of agriculture. It is noticeable, ho says, that most of the snowdrifts In the road arc found where meadows or plow ed fields lie on the north and west sides. Tf corn were planted there and a five to 10-acre strip of stalks or high stubble left standing, w-lnds from the north and west would pile the mow against them instead of sweeping it out into the high ways. Besides acting as a snow fence, the stalks would hold moisture where ft Is most needed. Land contiguous to highways drains rap idly. Kriebs says small grains as well as corn may be used tf high stubble Is left. Farmers, he says, will be repaid three-fold by Increased crops as a result of retained moisture and tax payers will be saved much expense in removing snow and maintaining highways. An Unseemly Incident. Gastonia Gazette. The incident at the Chautauqua tent last night when one of the ar tists on the program, harassed by the behavior of a bunch of young sters sitting on the front seats in vited them to go to the box office, get a dime and get out, ought to be lather embarrassing to many fath ers and mothers of Gastonia. Is it? It Is getting to the point where the conduct of some Gastonia youngsters, both boys and girls, in public is disgraceful. They seem to have no training at home In the simplest and most elemental man ners and common courtesies. It Is common knowledge how they gather on the front rows of every entertainment at school. Chautau qua tent, and elsewhere, and carry on disgraceful conduct. Their par ents, if present, are sitting back somewhere, seemingly obvious to the misconduct and misbehavior go ing on. There was a time when children sat with their parents In public gatherings. They knew7 to be have, or else they would suffer for It when they got home. That day seems to be gone forever. Children these days enjoy not only every liberty, and privilege, but they feel licensed to exceed all bounds of common decency. Where are the manners supposed to be taught at home? The conduct of 25 or 30 young sters massed on the front seats of the Chautauqua tent, last night was so bad that Mrs. Jackson had to stop her concert and ask them if they did not wish to go to the box office and get a dime. Among the children who were guilty of some of this exceedingly obnoxious and unseemly disorder | there were some from the supposed best homes of the city. What dc their parents think of this? T. W.
