Chevrolet, according to reports
from witnesses at the scene and
from the victims.
Witnesses told the investigat-
ing officers that two men and a
woman were occupants of the
car which hit the motorcycle,
operated by MCGEE, and con-
tinued east down Walnut street.
The officers were known to have
picked up the woman believed to
have been an occupant of the car
at an early hour this morning
They were still running down
several tips on the identity of the
men who were allegedly with her
at the time of the accident.
The fugitive car, according to
witnesses at the scene, was head
ed south on Front street and
turned left down Walnut, striking
the motorcycle, which MCGEE
was attempting to turn right in
to Front. MCGEE was headed west
on Walnut as he attempted the
turn, witnesses said.
The position in which the
motorcycle was lying and the
marks on the street indicating
the exact position of the acct
dent indicated that the hit-and-
run driver was on the left side of

MOTION PICTURES
TELL FLY HABITS
Scientists Can Now Learn
What Drone Has AL
ways Known

NEW YORK, Oct. 16-tP-The
common drone fly is now top
secret"
Thanks to some new fast pic
tures-3,000 to a second-sclen-
lists at the American Museum
of Natural History now are ind
ing out what the commo fly
has known for several hundred
million years.
They've discovered how the fly
knows whore he is when he
can't see where he's going, how
he can fly through fog when a
bird can't, and what it is that,
when he loses it, causes him to
make a sudden crash landing.
The movies, previeWed today at
the Museum, were made at the
request of the Sperl. G%yroscope
Company, DR.. c. H. Curran,
Museum Insect expert, worked
with photographer Henry M.
Lester for several years before
they got the pictures they Mt
ed.
In the movies you can see the
300 beats per second of the fly's
wings and more important -
the halteres or vibrating balan-
GERS just under its wings.
The tiny balancers, sticking
out under the wings like a pair

Chilean Coal Miners
Return To Their Jobs

SANTIAGO, Chile, Oct. 16-(P
An authoritative source sale
tonight that all the $4,000 coal

This source said miners still

Of lady's hatpins, go up when
the wings go down In therl
sculling, oarlike motion.
This, said Curran, is one OF the
things scientists didn't know be-
fore the pictures were made. And
they are just beginning to get IN
to the study of how the little
balancers work, maintaining the
fly's equilibrium like the fluid OF
the inner ear does a mans.
The halters are different from
the modern horoscopes that keep
compases on ships and planes bal
anced with the earth's axis. The
fly's balancers move up and down
at a 90-degree angle, while a
gyroscope rotates.
But the halteres are just as eff
fective - they tell the fly just
as accurately which is up and
is down.
At the end of the movies, which
take several minutes to run but
show the action of a few seconds,
the fly dies - another martyr to
science, slain by the heat OF the
Photographic lights.
But. says Curran, these most
nazing pictures ever taken OF
insects in motion have unlimited
possibilities in industry. Even
more avid attention is coming

Publicity Job Vacant
The general managership be-
came vacant upon the resigna-
ton of John, Walker. Also vacant
is the publicity Office upon the
resignation of Hoke Norris, nowo
a Winston-Salem newspaperman.
The trustees voted to open
the 1948 season on July l and
continue it through Labor Day,
with no productions on Monday
and Tuesday nights except on
special occasions.
A total attendance last season
of little more than rs, 600 was re-
ported with gate receipts of
SIT, 472, or about $1S, 900 less
than the preceding season. The
drop was attributed to a dlsas-
trous fire that disrupted pro-
auctions.
Further improvements in the
production are planned, Play
wright Paul Green reported,
adding that he had great con-

Thursday evening S. M. Hor-

that he saw no car stalled in
the intersection as he ap-
preached at a moderate rate of
speed with the green light, but
that the Ford crashed a red
light, entering the intersection
from the left at high speed, and
drove in front of the bus, max

said he got out of the bus and

To this contrary version Of
