Before She Was Shot

Alexandria police, investigating the
finding yesterday of the battered
body of L. L. voolfolk a few hours
after his wife was critically wound
ed, disclosed today that the couple
had been together two hours before
Mrs. voolfolk was found shot at
2 am. yesterday.
They said the colored couple, who
lived in the 600 block of Lamont
street NV, had been visiting a
relative, Mrs. Christine Wright. 3459
South Twenty-four street, Airing
ton, until midnight Sunday. Wool
folk was 20 and his wife is "a.
Earlier police reported two empty
shells and bullet found near the
spot where Mrs. Voolfolk was dis
covered were of the same caliber
as that of a pistol found on Wool
folks body. The dead man was
discovered In Potomac railroad
yards, where he was employed as a
.watchman.
Alexandria police said they were
reasonably certain the bullet came
from Woolfolk's .25-caliber pistol.
A ballistics test was to be made
today.
Mrs. Voolfolk, who is in critical
condition at Gallinger Hospital with
three bullet wounds in her head
and neck, was found on Old Glebe
road near Parkfairfax by passing

The lacerations were caused by
some terrific blow" he said.
1t was thought yesterday that
voolfolk might have received his
injuries in fall from a train but
DR.. Kernodle today was inclined to
doubt this because of the nature
of Woolfolk's injuries.

IHutcheson Charges
BY the Associossd Press

William L. CBig BilD Hutcheson
yesterday accused fellow AFL vice
president of violating a promise and
declared: "If there's anything ]
hate, it's a liar"
Mr.. Hutcheson was telling House

Hollywood movie strike which grew
out of disputes between AFL unions
The big, ruddy-cheeked witness
named Felix Knight as the man
who broke the promise.
Headed AFL Board.
Mr.. Knight was head of a board
of three AFL vice presidents which
tried to straighten out the con-

volved the right of various unions
to perform the same work.
Mr.. Hutcheson said that before
the arbitration board started its
work, all the unions involved agreed
to abide by the boards decision.
Then why didn't you abide by
it?' Representative Lands, Repub-
lican, of Indiana, asked.
Because I trusted the gentleman

give you an opportunity to be heard
before the board makes any de-
cision."
