about-town, in her apartment in Paris.
Her husband, Cary Grant, who was
supposed to be miles away, suddenly re-
turns. In a pickle, Roland is saved by
the entrance of Charlie Ruggles, his
elbow-bending pal, who mentions Rol-
and's lovely wife, and convinces Cary
that Roland is SO devoted to this UNI
identified wife of his, that he couldn't
possibly think of an intrigue with
Thelma.
So convinced is Cary hat he pro-
poses a holiday trip to Venice, with
himself, Thelma, Charlie, Roland and
Roland's wife" in the party. Thus
it behooves Charlie to provide Roland
with a wife, in order to carry out the
bluff. So he goes to a nearby movie
studio, and hires Lily Damita, gor-
geous young actress, for the job of
Pseudo-wife. She says she will act as
a wife to Roland in public, but warns
that she will freeze up like an iceberg
in private.

Non-Skid Tire Mileage
Test Is Completed By
Soldering Rubber Co

Tires are now being manufactured
which will give full 100 per zen an
ti-skid service, according to E. B
Bankett, local Seiberling dealer, who
has just received word of the COM
pletion of a series of scientifically ex-
cuted road tests in North Carolina
conducted by Soldering engineers, in
conjunction with Professor Harry
Tucker, professor of Highway En-
cheering at North Carolina State
College. In these tests Seiberling duo
tread tires gave a total mileage of 3d.
025 miles and an anti-skid mileage
of the same figure. Of eight other
makes of tires tested the next best
antiskid mileage was 1927 miles.
1--WE have long felt that the duo
tread construction would give full
anti-skid life" Seiberling eneineers
explained. Our preliminary tests
proved this. But late in January we
put fleet of cars on test on the roads
near Raleigh, North Carolina. We ran
these cars eighteen hours a day and
paced them to average more than 700
miles daily. We changed the tire from
right to left and from car to car. We
checked the pressure periodically to
keep it to the 81 pound standard.
During the tests we encountered ev-
cry kind of weather except snow. The
roads used were concrete and asphalt
permitting of high speeds and we had
every car loaded to the maximum car
rying capacity as recommended by the
Tire and Rim Association. Not only
did these tires average 81 per cent
greater mileage than the average but
they gave 123 per cent more anti-skid
mileage. Moreover, the total non-skid
mileage was rendered at the ridicu-
lousy low cost of $4,000 of a cent
per mile"

Aycock Statue To Be Unveiled In Capitol Today
GEORGE LYERLY
PLEADS GUILTY

George M. Lyerly, who resigned as
city tax collector and treasurer of
Salisbury several months ago, Monday
pleaded guilty in Rowan superior
court to four embezzlement indict-
ments and will leave Saturday for
Raleigh to begin a sentence in states
prison of from four to five years.
Judge Michael Schenck, who SEN
fenced Lyerly after hearing evidence
of his misconduct, allowed him the
rest of this week to straighten up his
personal business, giving him freedom
under his present bond of $4,000.
There was a charge of forgery, but
at a conference of attorneys when the
case was called it was decided to have
this charge mol pressed with leave.
Mayor B. V. Hedrick, called as a
witness, stated when he found Lyerly's
books had had a perfect daily balance
for months he became suspicious and
began an investigation which resulted
in finding small discrepancies which
led to larger mes and to the employ
ing of an auditor and the asking for
Lyerly's resignation.
Garland E. Martin, public account
ant, testified that he and his assist
ants had investigated and found dis
crepancies in more than 400 tax items.
The counts in the several indictments
charged only a shortage of around
$1,000, but MI. Martin testified the
total found so far is $4,000, and the
audit is not yet completed.
Attorneys for Lyerly made appeals
to Judge Schenck and Solicitor Zeb
Long spoke for the state. Lyerly has
been prominent in church and fra
ternal circles for years and the dis
covery of his embezzlement shocked
the community.
According to attorneys for him, Ly-
erly stated to them that he had lost
the money by playing the stock mar
kets, and he also was reported to Judge
Schenck as having told his attorneys
that years ago when he first began
taking the city's money, he did SO be-
cause the city owed him for money
advanced by hinn personally, and he
telt like he had a right to get it back.

CITIZENS
FROM N. CAR. TO
ATTEND CEREMONY
Statute Of "Fatber of
Educati0m' Will Fill
States Second Place In
Hall Of Fame.

Final arrangements have been made
in Washington for North Carolina to
fill its second place in the congress
sional hall of fame on Friday, May
20, when a bronze, statue of Charles
Brantley Aycock, known as the faith
er of education in the Tar Heel state,
will be unveiled.
The ceremonies are scheduled to at
tract a number of prominent North
Carolinians, including Gov. o. Max
Gardner, ex-officio chairman Of the
Aycock Statue commission which was
created by the 1929 general assembly
of the state.
Each state is allotted two places
in the hall of fame, known officially
as Statuary Hall, which is located in
the central section of the capitol
building. Already n of the two
places has been filled. Zebulon Baird
Vance, Civil war governor of North
Carolina, now stands in bronze in the
hall
The bronze likeness of Governor
Aycock will be assigned a position
next to the marble reproduction of the
late Senator Robert M. LaFollette of
Wisconsin. Some IS feet to the left
of the position reserved for Aycock
is the statute of Vance, while immcd-
lately in front is the south's Civil
war hero, Gen. Robert E. Lee, ne of
the two illustrous Virginians eccu-
plying the hall.
The allotment of space in Statuary
Hall is regarded as the highest honor
in the gift of the state for one of its
citizens. Governor Aycock served as
chief executive of North Carolina
from 1901 to 1905. He gained the
name of educational governor
through his leadership in the move
ment for popular education, and the
word Education" was the last he ut
tered before dying suddenly while de-
l%ivering an address at Birmingham,
Ala. At the time he was a candidate
for the United States senate to suc-
coed former Senator Furnifold Sim
mons.
Charles Keck, a noted sculptor, ex-
ecuted the bronze statue, which will
represent a cost of $4,000. 1t is to be
unveiled by Charles Aycock McLen-
don and William Brantley Aycock,
grandsons of the North Carolina gov
ernor.
The presentation of the statue in
behalf of the Aycock commission will
be made by Josephus Daniels, Of Raj
eigh, former secretary of the navy
under the Wilson administration.
Representative Lindsay C. Warren of
North Carolina will accept the statue
in behalf of congress. DR.. ]. Y. Joy
ner, who was superintendent of pub
lie instruction in North Carolina for
Is years beginning with the Aycock
administration, will participate in the
ceremonies as secretary of the COM
mission, while DR.. Samuel Judson Por-
ter, pastor of the First Baptist church
of Washington, D. c., himself a ma
tive of North Carolina and personal
friend of Governor Aycock, will Of
fer prayer.
In addition to Governor Gardner,
the Aycock commission is composed
of Mr.. Daniels, DR.. Joyner, A. D. Nc
Lean, Mrs. R. w. Beckett, Judge R.
W. Winston, S. C. Brawley, R. NJ.
Hanes, and Frank Graham.

his own car? Was the mud found on

builder has made a complete confess
sion and are investigating his activi-
ties since the night of the kidnapping.

SHANGHAI, Aug. 11.-Great anx-

all sections of the American public
to the trial of Paul and Gertrude
Ruegg.
The Chinese Ambassador in Wash

describing the excitement and angry

change in the attitude of the AM

test movement, with the inclusion of
many well-known personalities in
public life and the increasing num-
Der Of protest demonstrations in

In his confidential report to the
Marking Government, the Chinese
Ambassador warns Marking of the
growth of the protest movement in

that reports have been received in
