Etta Moten Thrills AI^A Gathering LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — News paper reports were high in their praise of Miss Etta Moten, noted singer, in her performance as the featured attraction in the fifth annual Fashionetta sponsored by Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority in Robinson Auditorium here.

Neaalive j You Are tlie Detective | You enter the law offices of! (i Jacob Bauer, and find the wealthy I attorney sprawled back in his . leather-upholstered swivel chair, a • j bullet hole'In his chest. You turn to Carl Reed, junior member oi (Bauer’s firm, who phoned you fifteen minutes ago of the tragedy. 1 “I knew Mr. Bauer was alone in his office tonight, and wanting to discuss some personal problems with him, I came here to see him. cent of all stock of the Apex News^ and Hair Company and the Apex Community Drug Store as well as all bonds and annuities and cash( in bank. She was also given all i jewelry and fur coats belonging to. 'Mrs. Logan as well as several i pieces of property in Atlantic City, home of Apex Hair and News Company. i Mr. Logan was given $10,000 |cash and 10 p^r cent interest in the Apex Hair and News Com iPany. He does not share in the residue of the estate nor was he given any real estate. I Under New Jersey law a wife • can completely disinherit her hus-‘ ^and of all her personal property holdings. She, however, must give him a 50 per cent life interest in all real estate owned at death. j Reports have it that most of the real estate was in the name of the ;Apex News and Hair Company.1 If such is the case, then the real estate actually owned by Mrs. Lo gan was controlled ^»y the stock' which under the law is considered personal. Mr. Logan was a Lincoln visitor duirng October of 1952. I ASK YOUR GROCER FOR GOLD CUP BREAD I ... I found him like this.” “Have you touched or moved anything?” you ask. \ “No—only the telephone when I ’ called you.” j! You begin an examination of f Bauer’s desk and immediately find Jthe typewritten letter, with its jhastily-scrawled penciled signa 1 ture: “I’ve thought this out care fully and am sure this is the only way out. Life is just too much 'for me.” j A further examination of the desk shows nothing of special in terest—just some blank letter heads, a tray of paper clips, an uncapped inkwell, some loose postage stamps, and some bills. As you stop beside the dead man to pick up the gun lying on the floor beside him you notice the pen still clutched tightly in his right hand. A quick look at the gun tells you it has been fired recently, and a further examination shows no fingerprints. “Did Mr. Bauer give any signs of mental depression recently?” you ask Reed. “Not that I know of,” replies the young man. “Of course, he always did seem preoccupied and worried during the year I have been associated with him, but he gave no intimation that he was going to kill himself.” “As a matter of fact,” you say, “Bauer did not kill himself. He was murdered, and maybe you know a little more about it than you’ve already told me. There are four little inconsistencies here that have aroused my suspicions!” What are those “four little in consistencies?” Solution In the first place, the signature on the typewritten note was scrawled in pencil, but the dead man clutches a pen in his right hand. Secondly, why is he still holding a pen when his last liv ing acts supposedly was with a gun. Thirdly, a would-be suicide doesn’t usually shoot himself in the chest, which is uncertain, but usually in the temple. And fourth, there were no fingerprints on the gun, leading you to believe that the murderer was overly-cautioue.
