RE-CHECK OF
MURDER CLUES
IS UNDERWAY
Miss Clevenger's Uncle Re-
! leased: Only Two Men
Being Held
NEITHER is A SUSPECT
OFFICER INDICATES

ASHEVILLE, July 81. (UP)-
Police back-tracked today along
the 11-day investigation trail in
search Of some overlooked clue to
the murder of pretty Helen Clev-
enger after w. L. Clevenger,
bachelor uncle of the girl walked
out of Jail "a hours after he was
told he was free to go as he
pleased. Sheriff Brown said Meth
Ell of the two men still held is
suspected of the crime. They are
Watchman Daniel Gaddy and L.
d. Roddy, negro elevator boy,
Clevenger last night left the
Buncombe county Jail where he
was locked up Friday for ques-
tioning about the mysterious muir
der of his young niece.
Guy Weaver, Clevenger's attor-
ney,. announced his client had
gone into seclusion in Asheville
but probably would meet newsna-
permen today.
! Meanwhile, efforts to solve the
battling Staying Of the 19-year-
pld New York university student,
sriminally assaulted and shot to
death by a midnight intruder in
her hotel room ten days ago, ap-
parently reached a blank wall.
Sheriff Brown, who confidently
had predicted he would arrest the
murderer by last Friday night,
failed to appear this office yes
terday. Reached at his home by
telephone, he said there "was
nothing that points to new devel-
opments" in the case.
Clevenger, middle-aged bachelor
professor of animal husbandry at
North Carolina State college in
Raleigh, technically had not been
in custody since Saturday when
his brother started habeas corpus
proceedings. However, he remain
ed in jail until late yesterday of
his own free will "to help in the
case" according to the sheriff.
Sheriff Brown, who late Satur-
day announced Clevenger's formal
release, would not confirm last
night that he actually had left the
Jail.
"He was there when l left last
night and I do not think he would
leave without telling me-" the
sheriff said. But Weaver, a for
mer Buncombe county judge, said
he had talked with Clevenger af-
ter he left the Jail.
81 don't believe the sheriff's
office even seriously considered
making any charges against Prof.
Clevenger in the case" Weaver
said last night. "The suspicion of
his being guilty was so absurd
that he has never considered 1t
necessary to make a denial"
Clevenger's brother, G. B. Clev-
enger, also a teacher at North
Carolina State college, was equal
ly emphatic about his brothers in
nocence when he visited him in
Jail earlier in the day.
"Do you think there is any pos
sibility that he may be charged
with this crime?" the brother was
asked.
"Not unless they use very film
sy evidence" he replied. I'm
certain that the matter will be
cleared up soon."
"Do you believe your brother

Superintendent Roach said the man chosen to represent the local department would, in all probability be enrolled in the term which begins November 1. He explained that the government sponsors three terms each year, one of them now in pro. gress and due to end July 20. The next, he said, is the one beginning in November.
 COurSe Explained
 Popularly known as the 'G-Men's' school, the training course was ex- plained in detail by Hugh II. Clegg, assistant director of the r. B. l., at the meeting of the Connecticut Chiefs of Police association Thurs day ct West Hartford. MT. Clegg at the same time extended the invita- ton to send men to the school. He also volunteered to send one or more instructors to this state to teach in the proposed police acad- einy.
 "When a man Is graduated from the training school at Washington he returns to his department and imparts the knowledge he has thus gained, to other members" Superin- tendent Roach said. Tt is the best training school in the world, and furnishes an excellent chance to take advantage of the practical ex- perience gained by Q-Men in their contacts with seasoned, desperate criminals" He said there was no charge for the course.
 6-Day Schedule
 The school Is in session six days per week from eight o'clock in the morning to 6 o'clock in the after noon and on three Sundays out of the six included in the course, acc cording to Superintendent Roach. He said the course could hardly be regarded as Q vacation" for the man selected, irasmuch as the work was hard and the enrollees are ex- pected to attend every session.
 Forty-Sevefl men, representing de- partfnents from all sections of the country, were graduated in the first class. Of the entire group, 46 have received promotions since their graduation and the remaining two, 1t is understood, are slated for ad- vancement shortly. State Trooper Leo Mulcahy, widely known in Wa terbury since the Grove murders, to which he was assigned, was a graduate of the school in the first class. Superintendent Roach said that the instructors at Washington are all of the highest type and inc clude attorneys, experienced inves- tigators of the bureau, and widely known specialists in crime detection.

Lessons of second quarter contin- ue the story, begun in the first quarter, of how Jesus met human needs.
 At the outset we find Him issuing His invitation to all to accept the grace of God, Illustrating 1t with . story of the man who prepared Q great supper and invited many guests. It was Q striking lesson on the weakness and il1sufficiency of human will and impulse, in the presence of great opportunity and potential blessing.
 The second lesson broke the con. tinuity of the record to tell, for Eas- ter, of the triumph of Jesus over death and the ultimate meeting oi all human needs and problems.
 In the third lesson we passed tc the picture of God as the forgiving Father given by Jesus 1l1 the beau. tiftil Parable of the Prodigal Son.
 The fourth lesson gave US c glimpse into the social outlook and attitude of Jesus in His story of Dives, the rich man, and Lazarus, the beggar. A further aspect of this social philosophy of Jesus in its idealism of mans relationship to his 3ellowmen was emphasized in
