Scene Of Killing
Search for slayer
Of Doiry Driver
Pushed by Police

Homicide detectives searched
today for man with a parking
lot key who might unlock the
secret Of who killed Sam Leo
Hoyle. 48-year-old dairy route
man.
Mr. Hoyle's body. a bullet hole
through the head. was found
Slumped over the wheel of his
car in a private parking lot adj
joining 1348 Euclid street NV.
When the discovery was made
at 1928 pm. yesterday, a pad
locked chain was stretched
across the parking lot entrance.
Deputy Coroner Richard M.
Rosenberg estimated the fatal
shot was fired about SO hours
before, or some time Saturday
night.
NeighbOrhood Searched.
A dozen detectives, headed by
Detective Chief E. E. Scott.
combed the neighborhood last
night for leads. Today they were
questioning all persons who use
the parking lot and have keys
that fit the paddock.
Mr.. Hoyle. a driver for Thomp-
sons Dairy for 10 years, for
merly lived across the street
from the parking lot. But police
said the lot was opened since
he moved to mis- present home
at 641 Gallatin street NV. and
they do not believe Mr.. Hoyle
had key
Mr.. Hoyle had been missing
from home since $50 pm. Sat-
urday when he told his sister,
Mrs. Gladys Walden, he was
going out for "a few beers"
Seldom Went Out Nights.
A resident of Atlanta, Mrs.
Walden had been spending the
winter with her brother. She
said he seldom went out nights,
seemed to have little social life
and showed no interest in
women.
When he left, Mr.. Hoyle asked
if he could bring his sister any
thing, indicating he expected to
return soon. Sunday morning
Mrs. Walden was anxious about
him. but surmised he had spent
the night with friends. But
when night came, she asked po-
lice to check hospitals.
Yesterday afternoon a man
who said he was Willie Jones, 407
Fourth street NV, telephoned
| police about finding the body.
The name Jones and the address
proved to be phoney.
No Powder Burns.
Mr.. Hoyle was shot from the
rear, the bullet entering the
lower head, just right of center,
and emerging from the inner
corner Of the right eye. There
were no powder burns. DR..
Rosenberg said the shot was fired
from about 18 inches, indicating
the assailant may have been in
the back seat.
The dairy drivers hands were
thrust in the pockets of his tan
overcoat. No weapon was found
in the car, but on the floor was
a battered slug and a spent
cartridge, possibly from a 81
caliber pistol.
The car was parked five PAGES
from the entrance, in plain sight
to paSSersby in congested area.
But it was not until many hours
after the assailant had made his
escape that the shooting was
reported to police.
Wallet Not Taker.
A robbery motive appeared un-
likely because Mr.. Hoyle's wal
let containing $15.36 apparently
had not been touched. A Ma
sonic ring was still on his finger.
The car key was in the igni-
ton switch. Police took the car
to the police garage for careful
examination for flngerprints or
other evidence.
Police were unable to find any,
one in the neighborhood who
had seen Mr.. Hoyle Saturday.

The simple life of Sam Leo

by which to track down the

Savannah, Georgia
The First RoSh Hashonah
In America

He not only did. not like Jews,
he had wanted to prevent any
settlers except those of his own
church establish themselves in the
new world. He was one legged but
swell-headed. He h a d vanity
enough for four legs. It was not
the Jews, but others of New Am
sterdam who said that he aspired
to be another Grand Duke of
Muscovy."
StuYvesant urged as a pretext
for the deportation of the Jews
from New Amsterdam. that they
might become a public charge and
he tried TO do everything possible
to make his predictions come true.
They were forbidden to open
stores or trade with the Indians.
But the Jewish settlers were no
supine lot. They made Peter

StuYvesant "eat crow" They ap-
pealed to the Dutch East India
Company and StuYvesant was
overruled.
There was a Jew who ran a
butcher shop on what is now
Wall st. His name was AsSer
Levy. There is some reason to
believe that Asser Levy was also
the shohet. One day, the sheriff
came around to Levy with a bill
for a special tax.
What is this?" asked Asser
Levy.
This is a special tax placed on
Jews by Governor Stuyvesant in
view of the fact that they do not
join with the others in standing
guard. Il will not pay the tax and
l demand that right to stand
guard" replied the Jewish shohet.
Asser Levy won his point.
Stuyvesant did not permit the
Jews to build a synagogue. but it
is probable that on the first Rosh
Hashonah in New Amsterdam.
they held services at the homes
of one of the settlers and il was
also very likely that the Chazan
was Asser Levy.
Asser Levy was not only a
brave man, but apparently an
honest man, as is indicated by the
fact that several Christians of
New Amsterdam named him as
executor of their wills.
It was a tense and vital time
this period of the first Jewish
settlement in America. A time Of
many wars. but time also when
the mind seemed to be throwing
off the old letters. Newton had
astonished the world as Einstein
today. Spinoza was blazing new
paths in philosophy. Rationalism
flourished alongside of an inten-
sified mysticism. Shabbathai levi
was to come forth in a few years
to proclaim himself the Messiah.
Spinoza's friend. Henry Orden-
burg. wrote to the Dutch philos-
opher that there was a growing
belief in the restoration Of the
Jewish State and Spinoza himself
wrote that he thought il entirely
possible that they might return
to their ancient land again. they
might be chosen by God"

flower or the Jews who came TO
New Amsterdam were to come in
today. am afraid. we would look
with the same contempt on them
as they were subjected three hun
bred years ago.
The Dutch were relatively more
tolerant in those days of the first
Jewish settlers, but Governor
Peter Stuyvesant certainly pos
sessed little of this fine quality.

ming industry byproduct which
generally has been considered
useless may turn out to be a
valuable farming aid.
Wesley P. Judkins, head of the
VPI horticulture department,
said tests are to be run on tan
merry sludge to see if the mixture
may not be a good mulching
material. Indications are that
it will be.
The sludge is the leftover por-
ton of the tanning mixture.
which is composed mostly of
ground-up bark. 1t has been a
problem to dispose of after the
leather processing is finished.
The sludge, after the water
has evaporated, is caked. saw
dustlike mixtures containing
~ per cent nitrogen. which is
one reason Judkins said the ma
terial may be a good mulch.
Ordinary mulching materials
-saWdust. hay, grass, leaves,
straW-while doing an efficient
job, will create a nitrogen def
cheney in the soil which must be
replaced with a nitrogen fer
tilizer. The sludge, with it's nj
trogen content, might tend to
prevent this deficiency, Judkins
said.
Comparison tests between saw
dust mulches and soil condition
ers already are under way. The
tannery sludge experiment will
be combined in a three-way test,
with results to be announced
later.

Fall Color in the Garden
Many Trees and Shrubs Should Be Selected
For Their Bright CoIored Fruits, Gay Leaves
By w. n. YounemGn
Garden Editor

coral red fruits borne In pro-
fusion on the tips Of the droop-
ing branches. These two will
tolerate some shade, but are
spreaderS and should be kept
under control or they will take
too large an area.
Rose Fruits Snowy.
The colorful seed pods of roses
(hips) should not be overlooked
in mentioning those plants
which add to the color of the
shrub border. The rugosa roses
in particular have SNOWY fruits,
but many others also produce
displays, some yellow, but most
of them crimson red. The in
vasive multif1ora rose, Of Giving
fence" promotion, does have an
abundance of red fruits which
the brids feed upon and dis
tribute to the four winds. Nearly
all of the good fruit displays of
the rose are provided by the
species, although a number of
the climbers provide the usual
exceptions to the rule.
Space does not permit more
than mention of a number of
trees and shrubs that contribute
to the fall color. The invasive
bittersweet vine that is best left
to the woodslands is one that has
colorful fruits. The brilliantly
colored foliage Of the smoke tree
(Rhus cotinus). a low-growing
tree or large shrub, is attractive.
The berries Of the porcelain vine
(AmpelopsiS brevipendunculata)
make an interesting showing.
The photinia Is another large
shrub with bright red berries
the evergreen species are hardy
in this area, but are small trees.
Also, the aroma (Aronia arbuti-
folia) has good fall fruiting
habits, is a somewhat lower
grower but has a vaSe-Shaped
habit of growth and should be in
the background.
While mention has been made
of some of the fruits, space has
not permitted mention of foliage
colors. The home gardener. in
selecting shrubs and trees for
the yard, should take into con-
sideration both the foliage and
the fruits as we'll as the flowers.
In this way maximum usefulness
of shrub or tree is obtainable.
Some will have only flowers and
foliage, others foliage and fruit,
and a few provide all three.

Trees Moy Need
Feeding Long
After Leaves Foil

Home grounds trees are going
to, need more help this fall than
they have in many years.
The soaring heat late this
summer has badly depleted the
growing vigor of trees. This
has been reflected in premature
leaf fall and sagging vitality
partly because hundreds of mu-
inequalities were forced to cur
tail sprinkling.
To rebuild declining health,
prompt tree feeding is impor-
tant. City and suburban trees,
even though denuded, will alb
Sorb nutrients for weeks to
come.
That's because roots remain
active long after trees seem dor
mont. They'll gulp up victuals
provided sufficient moisture dis
solves the fertilizer. If fall rains
are infrequent, keep the garden
hose handy for use.
Fortunately, woodland trees
do not suffer as much from
drought as their city cousins.
They are protected by natural
misunderstanding mulches and
have the benefit of organic foods,
such as decaying leaves, denied
home grounds trees sitting on
manicured lawns.
The city tree should be served
its blue-plate special in the
form of q tree food high in nj
trogen content. This fertilizer
is applied by the time e-honored
perforation method, meaning the
punching Of holes in the soil
over the entire root area. Holes
may range in depth from IL
to 18 inches, depending upon
locale. Peat moss and other hui
mus materials should be used
to fill the deep holes after the
special tree food dosage has been
applied. Roots generally extend
at least as far as the branch
spread.
