North Carolina Resident in Dan-| gerous Condition After Attack. CONCORD, N. C., December 27 (#).— Efforts of Cabarrus County officials to- | ward a solution of the mystery sur- rounding the mutilation of Baxter Par- nell, 23, of the Rock River Church com- mm , late Tuesday, had not been suc- essful up to last night. The young man is in a local hospital in a dan- gerous condition. Parnell told authorities that two un- identified men attacked him while he was hunting in his neighborhood. He nouncing at the leunchen that the con- tribution had been made, George Whit- well, president, said that the fund had been delivered on Christmas eve, and will be used to improve conditions at the hospital. In his address Vivian Carter, editor and publisher of the Rotarian, the pub- lication of Rotary International, dis- cussed the increasing membership and sald that Rotary organizations were reaching to distant corners of the earth. The most recent additions to the inter- national organization were in Man- churia and Turkey. Additional features of the program were vocal selections by Miss Helen Howison, Miss Charlotte Harriman and George _O'Connor _accompanied by George Wilson and Matt Horn at the piano.
