Paul Alexander Clements. "toy

he robbed two taxi drivers re-
Gently with a toy pistol and was
apprehended in an attempt to
rob another, was sentenced to
one year in prison today in
criminal court.
Clements attorney made a plea
for clemency for his client, who
had entered guilty plea to sim
pie assault in connection with
the last OffenSe. The other Of

ginia.
Justice Gordon replied to the
lawyers plea with pointed re
marks concerning the prevalence
Of taxi robberies and asserted
that morally it made no differ
ence whether the weapon was a
toy or not. He implied that he
regretted that the law did not
make it possible to hold the
youth for more serious offense.
Clements hired Treat A. New
man, a taxi driver, at Second
Street and Massachusetts, Avenue
Northwest, on March % and at
tempted to hold him up when
they reached the hoo block of

EDNA RITTER

Hundreds of exhibits of work
that has become almost a lost art
that of hand weaving-are on
display at 719 Seventeenth ST..
N. W., by students of Lincoln Me
mortal University, at Harrogate,
Tenn. The work is being sold at
nominal sums, the proceeds to go
to the girls to help them pay
they way through college.
Dainty ScarfS, hand woven
women's suits, bath mats, lunch
con sets, guest towels, all made on
the hand-operated looms, are in
cluded among the exhibits.
Edna Ritter and Gladys Bush,
both natives of the Tennessee
mountains, are in charge of the
exhibit, which is being sponsored
by the Daughters of the American
Revolution and by President
Hoover, the sixth President of the
United States to endorse the work
of the university.
The university was founded
February IL, 1897, and named for
the Civil War President who, on
a visit to that section of the coun-
try, declared that something
should be done to insure the
natives of the mountains ad-
vantages of an education.

NEW ADMISSION
BACKS STORY
Of NEPHEW
Aubrey PiIIsbury Breaks in
Police Session; His Recital
Puts Accused in BAD Spot

Adding to the mass of evidence
police are assembling against
Gary Owens, charged with the
murder of James H. Lane during
street car hold-up one month
ago today, Aubrey Pillsbury, uncle
of the accused man, last night
confessed that Owens alibi was
false.
When he was first taken into
custody few days after the muir,
der, Owens claimed that he had
spent the day and night at Pills
bury's home, in Silver Hill, Md.
Won Him a Release
PillSbury confirmed this story
and Owens was released.
Police kept him under sur,
veillance, however, and he was
again taken into custody this
week when Charles Owens. his
nephew. was arrested.
He admitted participating in
the attempted hOld-up and said
Gary was the man who shot lane
during a Scuffle in the car.
PillSbury was taken into GUS
tody two days ago, and last night
admitted that Gary had left his
home the afternoon of March 18.
Confirms Nephew's Tale
The story confirmed certain de-
tails related by Charles, and police
said he will be released from Gus
tody today.
Members of the Detective Blu
reau are comforting today with
United States Attorney Leo A.
Rover to determine what charges
shall be placed against the two
Owens men.
Detective SergeantS Carlton
Talley and Thomas Sweeney, who
arrested the two suspects and de.
velOped the case against them.
went to Mr.. ROver'S office and
laid all their evidence before him.
A formal charge will probably be
filed against the two men on Mon
day and they will then be ar.
raigned in Police Court.
A charge of first-degree muir
der will probably be filed against
Gary Owens. police indicated. but
the charge against Charles Owens,
the nephew, has not been deter
mined.
So far police have been unable
to locate the gun used in the mur-
der.
