hoped would lead to solution OF the
mystery surrounding the discovery

tered about ALT Winchester, 35, who
lives one mile from the scene OF the
fire and who is held in the county
Jail as a suspect. Questioning by
officers, they asserted, had brought
admission from Winchester that he
boarded a train in Birmingham
bound for Tuscaloosa Tuesday eve
ming Of last week in company with
a young woman.
According to the officers, win:
chester said the woman was bound
for Shreveport and did not leave
the train at Tuscaloosa. The author
tiles said they were investigating re-
ports that had reached, them that
the woman left the train with Win
chester at Tuscaloosa and that the
couple drove away in the mans car.
The officers, quoting Winchester's
alleged statement, said the woman

the welcome news that Belgium and

the Belgians have been at the side
