Bennett Meyers Faces
Another Year in Jail
After Parole Is Denied

The District Parole Board has
turned down the application Of
Bennett E. Meyers, former major
general and wartime purchasing
chief of the Army Air Force, for
parole from Lorton Reformatory.
where he is serving from 20
months to five years.
Convicted in March. 1948, of
inducing witness to lie for him
under oath. Myers completed 81
months of his sentence before his
parole was taken up by the board
Thursday.
Charles w. Chapman secretary
to the board, in announcing the
decision yesterday, said the ap-
plication was denied without pref
udice to Meyers right to resubmit
his application after November /.
1850. This means he will serve
at least another year in prison
pe1ore getClng anoCner cnance TO
apply.
Mr.. Chapman said the parole
board does not make it a practice
to reveal just why the parole ap-
plication of a prisoner is denied.
1t has been the practice in the
past. however, not to grant parole
to prisoners who have detainers
against them. Meyers still faces
court action on tax liability cases.
The Government charges he owes
an estimated 100000 in back
taxes, interest and penalties.
Last month the Government
turned down an offer from Myers
to settle the tax claims for $780,
900 and to plead guilty to a
single misdemeanor.

John Allyn Cheshire was on
the "Tar Heel in 1918 when it
was edited and printed IN a
building on the site of the old
University power plant. Now he
is proprietor of a serve-yourself
laundry on West Rosemary lane.
1t took him 35 years to get back
to Chapel Hill by. way of a news
paper career that carried him
all over the United States and
into Mexico.
Running a laundry was the
last thing ever intended doing, +"
Mr.. Cheshire said one day this
week.
Three years ago Mr.. Cheshire
was publishing the Plain
Dealer in Greenwood, S. c.,
and raising bulldogs on a 16O-
acre plantation when his doctor
told him he would have to quit
work and take things easy. He
sold the paper and the farm and
it's ante-bellum 12-room house,
and he and Mrs. Cheshire took
te to the the read in in trailer tt aileeE. They
lived in the trailer two years,
mostly in Tryon, Henderson
vile, and Charlotte, and then
they came here a year ago and
bought the Rosemary Automatic
Laundry. They still live in the
trailer, parked beside the laun-
dry building.
I'VE are very happy here, "
Mr.. Cheshire said. "We don't
make killing, but we like the
business and get kick out of it.
We're going to put in two mere
washing machines this fall" !"
They already have 19 machines
and a dryer.
Mr.. Cheshire's life story is
the chronicle of a wanderer.
Born in Martinsville, Va, he was
a jouneyman printer before he
was 20 years old. He published
papers in Somerset and Pine
vile, KY, and was an honorary
colonel on the staff of Governor
Edwin P. Morrow by the time
he was %. From Kentucky he
came to North Carolina to be
circulation manager of the
Charlotte Observer" In the
last year of the First World
War he was a special investiga-
tor. After the war he returned
to his chosen profession in Chi
cago as advertising director for
chain of suburban news
papers.
From there he went to Mon
tana as a general executive of
newspapers controlled by the
Anaconda Copper Company. He
next became business and ad-

Eruiin Defeats
Marion Eleven
By IL 7Edge

In a game that was a rough and
tumble affair from start to finish
Coach Ditt's Marion high school
Rippers lost to fighting Erwin,
I n n e S S e e aggregation Friday
night on the high school athletic
field by score of twelve to seven.
1t was the roughest game played
in thus far by the Rippers as the
officials penalized the visitors
twice in an effort to tone the game
down a bit. The Orange and Black
boys also drew several penalties Of
which the majority was of the five
yard variety chiefly for off-sides
errors.
Although the Rippers were be-
hind at the beginning of the second
half by six points they moved them
selves out of the dog house in a
hurry as they took possession of
the ball and in two plunges went
over for a touchdown. To begin the
second half the rippers kicked to
the Erwin Devils; however, the
boot developed into an on-side play
with Marion recovering the ball on
the Blue Devil forty yard stripe.
On the first play Dan Mccall went
around left end for eight yards.
On the next play Mccall, with two
yards to go, dropped back into a
pass position and heaved long one
to Hubert Stanton who took it on
the fifteen, shook off two tackles
and stepped the remainder of the
distance for the Ripper score. Nc
Call passed to Captain RAIDER for
the extra point and the locals were
out in front seven to six.
The first quarter of the game
was a great defensive affair with
neither team showing a decided ad-
vantage. In the second period the
Erwin boys took to the air and were
successful in racking up touch
down. Their try for extra point
was wide of it's mark and they led
half time by six points.

Dates Announced
For Mailing
Overseas Packages

Persons wishing to mail Christ
mas packages to members of the
armed services overseas are being
instructed by the Post Office De-
partment to mail them between Oc-
tober Is and November 1, Post
master John Finley said yesterday.
Packages going to Japan and
points in the Pacific definitely must
be mailed before November L." he
added. "This will make it possible
for them to be delivered on time"
He explained that the mail in
cluded not only that to members of
the armed forces but to their fam
lilies and to authorized civilian en-
ployes in the same area.
Marion progress., 1949-10-13

After the Rippers took over the
lead both teams fought every inch
Of the way. It was not until late
in the final period that the Blue
Devils were able to ring the ball for
the second time, and this time it
was also via the air route. Taking
over deep in their own territory
the Blue Devils went into a wide
spread formation that confused the
Rippers just a bit. Before the local
boys could adjust themselves and
set up a defense for the new forma-
tion the visitors had carried the ball
into Ripper territory and set it up
for a touchdown. Several plays
later it happened and team from
Erwin went out ahead by the score
of twelve to seven in what proved
to be the final scoring of the eve
ing.
Coaches Dit and Gibson are still
keenly feeling the loss of Gilbert
Packet, who received badly in
jured ankle in the Morganton
game. Packet will probably be out
of the lineup for another month or
longer.
Tackling and blocking also con-
tinued to look a bit weak on the
Ripper side of the ledger, but the
high school coaches have been
spending long hours this week in
an effort to get the team ready for
the Charlotte Tech game to be play
ed in Charlotte Friday.
j. Tech has an outstanding team
this season and will be hard to
handle in home territory, but the
Marion Rippers are going to Char
lotte for that purpose Friday and
local football fans may rest assured
that a great high school football
game will be on tap when these
two elevens meet.
