ness for the prosecution in the trial
Of H. H. Chewing, automobile
salesman on trial for his life in
connection with the fatal shooting
of James K. symmers University
Of Virginia student, Of Rye. N r.,
struck a sharp blow at the de-
fense late yesterday.
The witness, John Largin, laborer,
declared from the witness stand
that he had seen the defendant
fire the. shot that caused Summers
death.
Standing Near
Largin was placed on the witness
stand as surprise eyewitness. His
testimony shook the defense that
was attempting an acquittal. He
declared, under oath, that he was
standing behind the accused auto.
mobile salesman when he drew a
revolver and shot at the student in
the lunchroom here on the night of
December 8.
The tale told by Largin was a
story of his journey to Charlottes.
vile. where he placed his daughter
in a hospital. He said he went into
the lunchroom on his way home and
that he saw Chewing draw the
pistol from his pocket, take aim,
and shoot the student in the back.
Blasts His Hopes
Largin. the surprise witness, can
neither read nor write, it is said.
Chewning, who is married. has
contended that the shot was acci.
dental. He endeavored to prove this
through the testimony of witnesses
but the parting shot of the prosecu.
tion has apparently blasted his
hopes.

the janitor can get underneath the
desk with his broom. Pupils may
wish to be remembered by genera
lions of students to come by having
them see your name, but their idea
of you will be anything bat pleasant
if some pupil writes hole in his pa
per because there is a bit Of architec-
ture or sculpture on his desk.
Hand in hand with this wasteful-
ness and disregard for school pro-
perry comes the question of appear
ance. A pupils desk is his home
while in the school room and one can
easily see the type of nousekeeper
one is by the way in which he leaves
his desk. If the desk is so full of
paper that books and papers keep
falling out, it gives the room an I'M
tidy aspect. Pupils should have that
self pride which would not allow them
to be untidy because it helps form a
habit which will be beneficial in time
to come.

Cropley handed the Bible to Taft,
who advanced to Hoover's left at the
front of the platform. Holding the
Bible in his left hand, the chief JUS
tice repeated the words of the presl-
Dental oath he himself took 20 years
ago Monday, and Hoover repeated 1t
after him in words that carried out
over the crowd:
81 do soIemnly swear that / Will
faithfully execute the office OF
president of the United States. and
will, to the best of my ability, pre-
serve, protect and defend the con-
stitution of the United States"
Then as President Hoover bent for
ward and kissed the open book, the
crowd set up a tremendous roar.
Coolidge, an ex-president shook hands
with his successor.
With head uncovered, the new pres
ident began at once the delivery OF
his inaugural address. He read In
steady voice, looking up at inter
walls as the light rain tossed on an
unsteady breeze, whipped in under the
high roof and patterned on his face.
The crowd applauded when he de-
clared he proposed to execute and en-
force the laws of the country, "to the
extent of my own abilities, but the
measures of success that the govern
ment shall attain will depend upoI
the moral support which you, as Cit
zens, extend"
A moment later many of his listen
ers stamped their feet and cheered a.
he declared he intended to appoint {
national commission for a searching
investigation of the federal system
of jurisprudence, to include the meth
cd of enforcement of the 18th amend
ment and the causes of abuse undet

tain States T. & 7. Company made a
reduction in all long distance tele-

S1.00, while business extension tele-
phones cost only SIPS instead OF
$3.50 as before. The cost of connect.

 TUESDAY IN EASY GAME
Schmitz in Fine Form, Holds Vets to Five Hits
 Moose Win l2 to 0

Pete Schmitz held the Vets help less last night and his support was almost faultless, and the Moose walked away with the seven-inning contest by score of 12 to 0. But five hits were registered off the Moose pitcher, all of them singles, while the Moose found Cunning ham and Mclaughlin for 14 safe blows, four of which were two baggers.
 There really wasn't anything to the game in the way of competi- tion. The Moose scored in every inning except the first and third, showing two men over the rubber in the second, one in the fourth, seven in the fifth and two in the sixth.
 How It Was Done
 Little Mac went to second on Burda's error to open the second inning. Nello clouted a hefty OOuDlC oSOl HE MdS, uilu Ndlt D single sent Nello over the rubber.
 Nello got his second double to open the fourth and scored when Killewich's grounder got through short.
 Then came the unholy fifth frame when the Moose hit every ball that came anywhere near the plate, driv- ing Cunningham from the mound Junge opened with a single. Singles followed by Pete and Bill Schmitz, Little Mac doubled, Nello singled, Vale famed, Killewich doubled, Hollmann rolled out, Shorty Rob- crts was safe on Burda's error and two wild pitches sent him aroun l. Junge ended the agony by rolling to the mound and was thrown out at first The score sheet shows ten men batting with Junge, Pete and Bill Schmitz, Little Mac, Nell To, Killewich and Shorty Roberts making a racetrack out of the base lines.
 Two In The Sixth
 The Moose added two in the sixth to keep their hands in practice. Pete Schmitz singled to right, went to second on wild pitch and scored while Burda threw out Bill Schmitz at first Little Mac walk ed and took third on Vale's single. Billy stole second A wild pitch scored Mac and sent Vale to third but he was nabbed trying to come home on a short passed ball.
