Held On Charge
Of Murder

Following the shooting of negro
in Elkton, on the night of Saturday,
January 9th, Samuel Logan, white,
aged about 80 years, of Pleasant
Hill, was lodged in Elkton Jail on
a murder charge.
John alias Chick Brown, colored,
aged about 80 years, who resides be-
tween Elkton and Glasgow, Del,
was shot and killed by Logan, short
ly before Q O'Clock Saturday, near
the tap room and dance hall OF
Tommy Howard, colored, in the
eastern section of Elkton.
According to report Logan visited
the tap room shortly after l O'Clock
and later got into an argument with
some of the colored patrons. Fin
ally things became SO warm that
the proprietor forcibly elected him
from the place. Logan drove away
in his car, and returned about a
half hour later.
1t is also alleged that he waited
in his car near the entrance to the
tap room, for his electors to come
out When three of them did APP
pear, he pulled .32-calibre revol-
yer from his pocket and fired, the
ball striking Brown near the heart,
killing him almost instantly. 1t is
also alleged that Logan fired two
other shots at the negro men, but
his aim was bad.
About an hour after the shooting,
Logan surrendered himself to Sher-
if Ralph w. Robinson.
Brown leaves wife and two
children.

AUDITORS REPORT
UNDER SCRUTINY
Several recommendations
Referred to Committee;
Golf Course Receipts

Mayor John S. Monagan appoint
ed a committee at the Board OF
Finance meeting yesterday afternoon
to study the recommendations made
by the auditors Barrow, Wade, GU
thrie & Co., on the 1941 financial
reports.
A member of the committee said
that he doubted very much whether
these recommendations would be
feasible this year. However, it is
expected that the BWG & Co.,
would have more appropriate rec
concentrations to make on the 1912
reports of the finance board.
Appointed to the committee are !:
Thorvold E. Olson, budget director;
Controller Cornelius F. Maloney and
William v. Gerard.
According to the financial report
of the golf course filed with the
board of finance at its meeting
yesterday, receipts at the municipal
course during last month was great
er than the expenditures. Never
theless, it was announced by the
park board that upnless the receipts
pick up, it will be necessary to close
the course soon, because of the great
operating expenses.
The reports indicated q net bal
ance on May l of 1926, receipts
to May 81 of 1880, and expendi-
lures during the period OF 5000.
Also to be taken into consideration
are the accounts payable of $1,755,
which brings the net balance as OF
May 81, down to $2,512.
