CHURCH IS VICTOR
IN DISPUTE OVER
BEER PARLOR SITE
GAMBLE LETTER SAYS
PLACE WILL NOT OPEN
IN NEIGHBORHOOD
Developments today showed the
Trinity Methodist Church had ap
parently won out in its fight to pre
vent the opening of a beer parlor at
the corner of York and Barnard
streets.
Deacons and members of the church
missionary society became aroused a
short time ago when they learned
someone was seeking permission to
open a beer parlor in the church
neighborhood. It was the impression
of the church heads at this time that
plans were to open the refreshment
establishment at the -ner of State
and Barnard streets.
An Immediate and strong letter of
protest was sent Mayor Thomas Gam
ble. Not long after this, Rev. J. C. G.
.Brooks, pastor of the Trinity Metho
dist Church, and other church offic
ials were Informed the proposed beer
parlor was to be at ”ork and Barn
ard streets, a still nearer spot than
the State and Barnard site. The York
and Barnard street location is but a
stone’s throw from the house of wor
ship.
This morning it is understood the
church authorities received a letter
from Mayor Gamble which assured
them the beer parlor establishment
would not be premltted to open for
business in the church neighborhood.

SUMTER LAD NO JEWEL ROBBER
BUT HE MUST ANSWER FOR 300
BROKEN WINDOW PANES AT HOME
Lieut. James Rogers, head of the
detective bureau, thought he had a
“hot tip” on the Desboullions jewel
ry store watch robbery yesterday but
the lead didn’t pan out after all.
It all started with a 15-year-old
runaway from Sumter, S. C. The
youngster strolled into a local pawn
shop yesterday morning with a large
paper sack under his arm. He told
the pawnbroker he had wandered
away from home and needed money
for his transportation back. The boy’
drew from the paper sack a wrist
watch which he wanted to pawn for
enough money to pay his railroad
fare. The youth was told a minor
was not permitted to pawn anything.
The sympathies of a woman who
was in the shop and overhead the
conversation were aroused. She told
the boy to come with her and she
would try to arrange for his trans
portation home. The two went to the
court house. There the kind-hearted
woman failed to find the person
whom she thought would arrange for
the youngsters trip. A court house
attache, however, suggested the boy
be taken to police headquarters and
inquiries be made there as to how
his plight might be remedied.
This was done. The youth was led
into the office of the lieutenant.
That officer leaned back in his swivel
chair and began questioning the
wanderer. The paper sack which the
boy had been hugging tight all the
time was rested on the floor. A post
card in the boy’s pcoket provoked
Lieut. Rogers’ curiosity. The message
was to the boy’s mother. It said he

OKLAHOMA KIDNAPER TO

LINDBERGH LAW
MUSKOGEE, Okla., May 8 (TP).—
Only a reprieve signed by President
Roosevelt can s rve Arthur Gooch frotr
the scaffold on June 19. Gooch, the
first man condemned to die under
the Lindbergh kidnaping law, has been
resentenced to nang, following the
collapse of his numerous appeals.

was in Georgia and would “be home
when everything has blown over.”
WINDOW BREAKING CONTEST
Repeated queries elicited the state
ment that the young South Carolin
ian, with a companion, had had an
argument as to which could break
the most windows in a lumber plant
in Sumter. The boy said after he and
his friend had broken 300 panes with
an air rifle he was suddenly struck
with the notion it might be a good
thing for him to leave town.
Lieut. Rogers turned the young
ster over to the juvenile authorities.
The boy was sent to the detention
home by them after the contents of
the paper sack he was carrying had
been inspected. In the bag were two
wrist watches, a towel, a banana,
seven packages of cigarettes, pens and
pencils and an automatic pistol. They
informed police of the miscellaneous
articles found in the boy’s bag. As
soon as Lieut. Rogers heard about
the watches he hustled over to the
office of the juvenile authorities to
have a look at the watches. Scrutiny
developed the fact that neither of
them compared with the description
of any of the timepieces taken from
the jewelry store by a sneak thief
Wednesday morning.
Juvenile authorities decided the
boy’s story of how he came in posses
sion of the gun, watches and cigar
ettes might or might not be true.
They were waiting for an answer to
days from a message to Sumter police.
The boy’s parents are probably an
xious to see him again—and so, no
doubt, is the man whose 300 window
panes were broken.

TWO YOUNG SAVANNAH
IANS DETAINED FOR
QUIZ ON TYBEE FIRE
Two young Savannahians who were
detained by police authorities of Sa
vannah Beach for several hours for
questioning as to the origin of the
destructive fire which razed seven
of the beach homes in an early morn
ing fire yesterday were released early
yesterday afternoon.
The pair were Earle Blackstone, 25,
and Frank McCoy, 20. They had
been employed in making some re
pairs to the cottage of Mrs. Julia
Bailey, one of th»? seven oottages
burned. While making the repairs
the two had been permitted to sleep
each night in the Bailey home. The
blaze was reported to have originated
at this home, spreading to the other
houses.

was of incendiary origin.
