Mr.. Spencer recently filed aft
davits in Criminal Court naming
Scott R. Brewer, former president of

Failed to Find Evidence
Possible prosecution of other for
mer officials of the bank will be
barred after tomorrow by the statute
of limitations.
Prosecutor Spencer commented:
Mr.. Sullivan has no knowledge
of the facts himself"
Mr.. Spencer added that he had
considered filing affidavits against
two other former officials of a bank
but failed to collect sufficient evil
dence.
The former grand jury was dis
missed by Criminal Judge Frank P.
Baker several weeks ago because,
the court said, the jurors had failed
to vote an embezzlement indictment
against a former township official
who had made up reported deficit
in his funds.
New Grand Jury Drawn
The grand jurors countered with
the statement that a former Grim
inal Court clerk likewise had been
short in his accounts, but that this
case had not even been presented to
the grand jury for consideration.
Mr.. Sullivan and several other
members of the grand jury stated
that they were ready to return in
dictments against several former Of
ficials of the State Savings and
Trust Co. when they were dismissed
by Judge Baker.
A new grand jury had been drawn
and sworn by the court. but it was
announced it would consider only
routine matters. leaving bank cases
to be handled by Prosecutor Spen-
Ger through aff1davits.

rich beauty of creation.
In the second part of the pre-
gram, the mountain folk with the'r
broken-down banjo tunes are de-
picted. "From the Southern Noun

The negro is represented in two
works at the close of the program

ody, characteristic of the hnej
emotions of the negro as an lndl
vidual. while the second is sym
