U?Xd^ndwT C~' ?T? t rivial Argument Causes Death For One SparUnburg, April A? the ro. ?ult of an argument over the right of way between the owner of u wagon and an automobile late today, Jc<?Ke P. Groce, a well known man of the city, in dead and Jesse Lowe j? in the county jail charged with murder. 'J he tragedy occurred near the corner of Trade and Commerce streets and was the afteriAath of a knife fight between the two men the police stated. The difficulty started, it is said, when Groce attempted to back an automobile from a garage. Lowe'c wagon was in the path, of the machine, it is sai.d. This precipitated an argument and a hand to hand scuffle botween the two men ensued dbring which Groce was stabbed in the neck. ^ With blood flowing from the wound Groce is said to have stepped back into the car and hurried to his home. He was accompanied by a Mrs. Smith. Later Groce returned to the scene of the argument and parked in front of Lowe s stable. As lie stepped out of the car he met Lowe. Both men drew pistols simultaneously, it is said. Witnesses stated three shots were fired. Groce fell mortally wounded. He was picked up in a pool of blood a few minutes later by an ambulance and hurried to & hospital, where he died before he could be placed on an operating table. Lowe notified the authorities of the slaying and was arrested a short time later. Although he made no statement his attorneys declared he would enter a plea of self defense when arraigned on the charge of murder. They claim the slayer was in his own establishment when Groce is alleged to have advanced on him with a revolver. According to police who investigated tho killing Groce had a revolver in his hand, when he staggered away from Lowe and slumped to the sidewalk. Both weapons are in the possession of the police. airplane endurance record Came Back to America Prom Germany Last Week Jacksonville Beach, Fla., March 31; The world's airplane endurance record came back to America from Germany yesterday, when Edward Stinson and George Haldemann, set a new mark here of 53 hours, 36 minutes, 30 seconds. The new mark was one hour, 13 minutes, 58 seconds beyond the record of 52 hours, 22 minutes, 31 seconds made last August by Johann Risticz and Cornelius Edzard, German fliers, using the Junkers plane, Europa. After jockeying their single-motored Stinson-iDetroiter monoplane, to take every advantage of breeze and altitude, the American aviators came dawn yesterday afternoon at 1:40:10 Eastern Standard time, with five gallons of their original 550 gallons of fuel still in the tanks. They hfcd taken the air at 7:37:40 o'clock last Wednesday morning. It was the second time that Stinson, veteran flier, had made an endurance record. Overjoyed at the feat,- and worn and begrimed from the more than two days and nights in the air he said simply "tired, yes, but happy that we are able to bring the record back to this country." The first day up the fliers experienced June-like weather but yesterday choppy air currents . forced them to higher altitudes to escape the bumps and conserve their fuel. - They had to climb higher still last night but today a brisk southwest breeze buoyed them and they took every advantage of it. "We/xhad rough going at times yesterday and today," said Stinson "running into hjioppy winds, but it wasn't so bad." The fliers smiled out of the hotel window this afternoon when a rainstorm swept up. "Seems the weather saved up mo3t of its meanness until we came down," Haldeman remarked. Premature explosion of an aerial bomb decapitated Buck Steel, stunt flyer, and also killed Francis Ashcraft, passenger in an airplane participating in an air derby at Macon, Ga. The blazing plane fell 7,000 feet> into the business district, killing a pedestrian and injuring two others. Sickly Boy, 7, Gains 15 Lbs.?Father Happy "My boy, 7, ~ would not eat.

W. Watkins, assistant director of extension. Last year two men, W. N. Ashe, of Lancaster county, and B. K. Smith, of Edgefield county, qualified as charter members of this honor club. 'Mr. Ashe produced lOS.'j bushels an acre. By plowing under a heavy bur clover crop and applying 200 pounds an acre of 12-4-4 fertiliser, he was able to make this yield. Mr. Smith grew 100 bushels and 39 pounds an acre on the same five acres on which he won the second prize in the South Carolina Cotton Contest 'n 1926. He sided reused his corn with 1000 pounds of acid phosphate, 400 pounds of nitrate of soda and 160 pounds of muriate of potash. Although this club was established in 1926 by the Extension Service to encourage better methods of producing our most neglected crop, no one qualified until last year. Yields of 100 bushels an acre have been made on single acres by a number of farmers and club boys as well, but it is believed that only Mr. Ashe and Mr. Smith have authentically made such five-acre yields in South Carolina, says Mr. Watkins. With South Carolina's average yields about 15 bushels an acre, it is choaper for many farmers to buy western corn than to grow it, but not for Mr. Ashe, who grew his for 19 eents a bushel, Mr. Watkins says, j Any farmer proposing to qualify I this year for membership in the club i must notify his county farm agent before July, so he and extension agronomists can check up. Although , there are no cash prizes, the 100bushel club marks a member as a public benefactor through his example and as a mighty good farmer. I Remembering that there was a motion picture in town that he wished to see and finding his cell unlocked, Henry Laird, a prisoner at Monessen, Pennsylvania, walked out of jail and ; went to the show. After the show, while the police force searched the city, he returned to his cell, and was asleep when found.
