Shepard dictated several orders
shifting personnel who had worked
in the office of the first deputy re-
eorder to other work in the re-
corder's office.
Whether the dismissal Of Mr..
Weaver was an OutgrOwth Of the
investigation into the office Of the
Recorder Of Deeds by the Federal
Bureau Of Investigation could not
be learned. The FBI completed their
investigation In the Recorders Of
fee on August l6, but continued
to interview former employees.
As far as can be learned, IL has
not been disclosed at whose instance
Attorney General Tom c. Clark
ordered the investigation covering
the conduct Of the office and Of
some employees. The office was
said to be about $4,000 papers in
arrears in recordings. When II was
turned over to Mr.. Shepard two
years ago, II was said 20 be less
than 800 papers behind.
Mr.. Weaver has been an en-
ployee Of the Recorders office for
eleven years. He has worked in
various capacities from messenger
to first deputy recorder. On De-
tober 81, last, Mr.. Shepard gave
Mr.. Weaver a One-grade promotion

and Italian arrested him.
The following Monday in
municipal court, Ben Peery, father
Of the boys, presented Carol to
the court, and requested that both
boys be tried together. Carol
was permitted to sit with his
mother during proceedings prior TO
calling Of the case.
The senior Peery charges that
PatrOIman Bauheld saw Carol,
rushed back to where he was
sitting with his mother, and with
out any explanation took him 70
Jail where the boy was sent 70
the bull pen. Peery requested
that his son be released into his
custody during the trial and the
court granted the request.
After the stay Of sentence,
Howard Englund, attorney for the
brothers, asked a stay Of one week
in order TO perfect an appeal he
thought advisable. II 10 thought
an appeal will be made to a higher
court.
Douglas Hall, attorney, and
member Of Mayor Humphreys
Council on Human Relations, asked
permission 10 intervene as a friend
Of the court, and attempted to show
that the brothers were not guilty
Of disorderly conduct, and Jonas
Schwartz, attorney, Of the board Of
the Minneapolis branch NAACP,
who asked to be allowed to make
a few remarks, stated that the boys
were arrested on the basis Of color
rather than for disorderly conduct.
The court, in passing sentence,
ruled that II was felt the brothers
resisted lawful authority, however
slight the resistance may have been,
and that such resistance could not
be tolerated.

Walter White Action
Avoided Mississippi Lyn,

NEW YORK-It was disclosed
at NAACP national office last week
that the prompt action Of Walter
White, executive secretary, in urg-
ing 1t. Gov. Fielding Wright to use
his powers to avoid threatened
lynchings during the recent episode
in Smith County, Mississippi, had
undoubtedly saved many lives. A
reliable source on the scene stated,
ale saved the lives Of innocent
Negroes who no doubt would have
been slaughtered wholesale"
According to the same source, 1t
was disclosed that the situation
grew out Of a feud among the
whites due to labor conditions.
Since then it has been fairly well
established that the press was ac-
tuaIIy guilty Of gross misrepresen:.
tation since the Negroes never fired
on either a car or upon the law
enforcement officers as charged.
Significantly, several Mississippi
white men have been arrested in
this connection recently.

Seattle Rainiers Climb Out of Bottom Spot by De-

(By THE ASSOCIATED PREss)

The Oakland Acorns remained in close pursuit of the Pacific Coast baseball league leading San Fran cisco Seals today-thanks to the pitching arm of Henry Pippen.
 Poppen's tight control limited the Sacramento Solons to two hits last night as the Acorns won an easy 9-1 victory that kept them within a game and half of the red hot Seals, who showed Portland into the cellar with 2-l win.
 Seattle, meanwhile, moved out of the bottom spot as they out -slugged Hollywood's Stars in wild hitting duel for 12-l1 edge. San Diego's Chuch Eisenmann made his sea- son debut with a five-hit hurling performance that beat Los Angeles 2-1.
 Oakland's batters backed up Pip pen with nine nicely placed hits as the Acorns racked up their 9-l win. This was the first time Pip pen has received such effective support from his teammates at the plate. He lost heart-breaka CT to San Diego 10 and barely nosed out Portland 2-1 while holding the opposition to three runs and P hits in 24 innings this season.
