WASHINGTON, Dec 14.-Presi-

social season at the White House
when he save the first of his formal
dinners. He entertained the Cabinet
members and their wives. 1t is true
that he gave dinner to the Re

nights ago, but that was not on the
forma program and did not count
as an opener of the season.
The next formal function at the
White House will be the New Years
reception on January 8, then the
diplomatic dinner on January 16.
Then, until February 20, when
the army and navy reception will Of
ficially close the social season, there
will be receptions and dinners ave-
raging one a week.
The years program of social
events is practically the same as last
year. A few changes in dates have
been necessary, but otherwise the
list of affairs at the White House
remains the same.

A DANVLLE HUSBAND
Stays WIFE AND SELF
Letters Written by Another Man
Believed to Have Prompt
ed Deed

DANVILLE. Va, Dec. 14-Leav-
ing evidence that he had planned the
terrible deed as long ago as Thanks
giving Day, William C. Pinnix, car
accountant employed by the South
ern Railway, yesterday afternoon,
about 4 o'clock, without word of
two bullets into the brain of his wife,
Mrs. Fannie New Pinnix; then, turn
ing the revolver upon himself, sent
a bullet into his own brain. Both
husband and wife died shortly after
wards.
The double tragedy took place in
the bedroom adjoining another, in
which a son, "Will," was lying
down. Upon hearing the shot the
boy rushed into the room in which
the tragedy was enacted, but was
too late to render aid, both father
cSuu lllOtlCI -UClHSo Ill q Wy 1nS COuul-
ton when he reached them
The immediate motive, which i'm
PEELED Pinnix to the frightful act, be-
came at once apparent when it was
made known that he had two hours
before the tragedy placed in the
hands of his son a package of let
ters which were evidently written
from another man to PinniX's wife,
and which, it is said, contain Ian
guage leading to the conclusion that
there had been intimate relations
existing between the two. It is also
said that Pennix's wife had left him
several times.
The letters in question were signed
"a. b." which are said to be the
initials of ga. Bridges who was
formerly an insurance solicitor here,
but who is now said to reside in
Richmond. Some of these letters
are said to be dated as late as Deem
Der, 1911.
AS a result of the double killing
the two children-Polly, aged twelve
years, and w. G., Jr., aged eighteen
years-are orphaned.
The slain woman is a daughter of
w. w. New, formerly wealthy and
prominent socially here. Pinnix was
a son of Colonel Pinniy deceased Of
Yanceyville, N. G. Both families
are prominently connected here. No
funeral arrangements have as yet
been made.

DANDRUFF AND ITCHING
SCALP YIELD TO
zENO TREATMENT

Why should you continue to ex-
pertinent with salves, greasy lotions
and fancy hair dressings trying to
rid your scalp of germ life. They
can't do it because they cannot pene-
trate to the seat of the trouble and
draw the germ life to the surface
of the scalp and destroy it.
Why not try a PROVEN RENE
DY? One that will do this. We
have remedy that will rid the
scalp of germ life and in this way
will cure DANDRUFF and ITCH
ING SCALP.
This remedy is ZEMO, a clean, re-
fined, penetrating scalp tonic that
goes right to the seat of the trouble
and drives the germ life to the sur
face and destroys it.
A shampoo with ZEMO (ANTI-
SEPTIC) SOAP and one application
of ZEMO will entirely rid the scalp
of dandruff and scurf Do not hes
itate, but get a bottle of ZEMO to-

Rev. VIM. H. H. Joyce of Roanoke
Valley is Cited
RUnORS INVOLVE A
SOCIETY WOMAN
Intercepted Letter, for Which
Explanation Will Be Asked,
Started Scandal

ROANOKE. Va, Dec. 14.-The
name of Rev. William H. H. Joyce
who has resigned as pastor of Trinity
Methodist Episcopal Church, South
of Roanoke. has been connected here
recently with the name of a prOmi-
nent society woman, who is the wife
of a wealthy real estate broker.
1t is understood here that the hus-
band of the woman who figures in
the case will shortly file suit in the
local court for a divorce from his
wife.
The resignation of the former
Valley clergyman appears to have
been practically forced, as it is stat
ed that the resignation of Rev. Mr..
Joyce followed upon the heels of an
investigation made by Rev. w. L.
Wolfe, the presiding elder of Roa-
noke district of the Baltimore con-
ference.
The Rev. Joyce must stand trial by
his brother ministers. Acting under
authority from Bishop Collins Denny,
the Rev. w. L. Wolfe, presiding ell
der of the Roanoke district of the
Baltimore Conference OF the M. E.
Church, South. appointed commit
tee of three ministers to make an in
quiry into the rumors which have
been circulated here.
The committee met here yesterday
and has concluded it's inquiry. Their
export recommends to the presiding
elder that a church trial will neces-
sary to consider Mr.. Joyce's case.
This means that Bishop Denny will
appoint a committee of ministers to
hear the case and decide on the
question of Mr.. Joyce's culpability.
Bishop Denny is at present in Flori-
da conducting conference. 1t is
understood that he will visit Roa-
noke next week in connection with
the Joyce matter.
The nature of the evidence has
not been disclosed, but it is under.
stood that an intercepted letter is
the principal point at issue.
Upon the construction placed on
this letter depends the future of the
minister. The findings of the COM
mittee will be forwarded to the pre-
siding elder, Rev. w. L. Wolfe, who
will report to Bishop Denny.
Rev. Mr.. Joyce did not occupy
his pulpit in Trinity Church on Sun
day. The services were conducted
by visiting ministers.
Rev. Mr.. Joyce was pastor of Brad
dock Street Church, in Winchester
about ten years ago, having sue
ceeded the late Rev. Dr.. Samuel K
Cox.
Rev. Mr.. Joyce has served as pas
tor at Salem, Blacksburg, Beuna
Vista and Luray since leaving Win
chester, and went to Roanoke a few
years ago from Blacksburg.
Rev. Mr.. Joyce sa pulpit orator
of exceptional ability, possessing a
magnetic personality which attracts
general attention.

Must Get Permission
To Play Basketball

In future the athletes of the Tech
nical High School must receive pernis-
sion to play basketball from the athletic
board or be barred from future inter-
high school athletics.
After the high school football season
several of the star athletes of the school
affiliated themselves with independent
teams and played basketball. Some ten
boys then took it upon themselves 10
form a Tech basketball team. 1t first
came out under different names, as a
section team, and then as a reserve
team. As the athletic board at the
school does not recognize basketball.
and as one or two men who played on
the team are not eligible to play ON
any team representing the school on
account of low standing in studies the
athletic board made its ruling which
has caused much comment at the school.
The A. A. L. controls the basketball
players, and the boys who are playing
Independent basketball are outlaws.
Further than that, one or two of the
players, 1t is understood, wera, or are
at present, suspended by the A. A. u,
having ben barred from the Y. NJ. c. A.
team.
1t is possible that Tech may lose one
or two good baseball and track men

FOOTBALL BOARD
CALLED TO MEET
Secretary Hall Satisfied
With Working of
New Code.

BOSTON, Jan. lie. K. Hall, secre-
tary OF the Intercollegiate Football
Rules Committee, has just sent letters
10 the thirteen other members Of the
committee asking them what will be
the most convenient time for them to
come to New York for the annual meet
ing The last week in January or the
early part Of February Is the usual time
for the annual powwow, and the same
time probably will be fixed on for this
years gathering.
Mr.. Hall, who is the Dartmouth repre-
sentative on the committee, was one
Of those who was opposed to the for
ward pass. He is not strong for II vet,
but as the new rules in the main turned
out pretty well last fall Mr.. Hall is in
favor Of giving them another seasons
trial. He thinks this will be the senti-
ment Of the committee as a whole.
THE new rules worked better than I
thought they would" says Mr.. Hail,
/ and / think should go along for an
other season. / should very much like
though, to see the plan I advocated In
the minority report last year adopted.
1t Is to have five downs and, say, fifteen
yards to go, the idea being to give more
scope and strategy to the attack. With
hve downs team trying a strategical
play and failing wouldn't be afraid to
try one more.
II also am in favor of a rule that a
ball which strikes the ground behind the
attacking sides line Of scrimmage be
declared dead. If this were the case
teams would be encouraged to try a lot
of pretty passing behind the line, pass
ing which would increase the attractive
ness OF the game great deal, and
which they don't try now for fear Of the
other side getting the ball. In connec-
ton with this it would be a good plan
to let backs be in motion before the
ball is put in play, provided they
goal Passing to and fro in connection
with backs being IN motion across the
field would improve the beauties and
variety Of the game appreciabIy, and
there wouldn't be the danger that comes
a line"

.GEERS HAS. SYSTEM
THAT SELDOM FAILS
Veteran Driver Is Among
Best Winners Year
After Year.

CLEVELAND, Jan. Year after
year the veteran trainer, Ed Geers. is
seen on the grand circuit. and year
after year his name is found either at
the top or close to the top of the leading
money winners.
The reputation of a trainer when once
established means as much to him in
making the going easier thereafter as
in any line Of business, and as a. result
for years Mr.. Geers has had the pick
Of large field of horses from which
to select his stable.
Mr.. Geers has a system of training Of
his own, and that it Is a good one a
glance at the records will show. At the
close Of each racing season Mr.. Geers
returns to Memphis. There he gives the
horses he expects to race the following
season two months stiff work.
1t Is then that G. D. NJ. begins
searching the green campaigners in his
stable to find out which of them are
worth stalking and which are counter
about the middle Of October, and the
middle OF December the young stake
candidates are put through thorough
test.
During this time 1t is always interest
ing to horsenen throughout the country
to know what the developments at
Memphis are. History shows what
good judge of horse Geers is. Seldom
does he make a mistake sizing up a
horses ability, and as soon as he puts
his stamp of approval on a trotter the
horse fraternity knows that horse has
fair chance OF winning in every race
he is entered.
Last year about this time the tip was
sent out from Memphis that Dudie
Archdale and The Able were stake can
didates that would be mighty danger
Gus in 1910. That no mistake was made
by the veteran trainer in his estimation
Of both equines is proved by the fact
that Dude Arehdale was the largest
money winning trotter of the past sea-
son, while The Able gathered in the
bulk OF the money the PAGERS raced for.
Since the past racing season closed
Geers has worked five green trotters in
2:10, and he has two more at Memphis
that could have trotted that fast, so it
looks as II the Geers string IN 1911
would be a hummer.

On December % this horse ran five
eighths in IS seconds fiat, setting a
dazzling pace throughout and winning
in a canter by ten lengths. Never be-
fore in the memories of the oldest turf
followers have they witnessed such mar
velous speed. The first quarter was
