GALVESTON, Tex., October 1.—Led to the scene by the alleged slayer, police today recovered a body tenta- tively identified as A. G.

Ryals ac- companied the searchers. As they approached a deserted camp house Ryals was reported to have stooped, pointed under the house to & spot where the earth appeared freshly turned and said: “He is buried right there, about three feet deep. “Confession” Published. Shortly after the body Wwas uncov- ered, District Attorney J. E. Martin in Fort Worth made public a part of the alleged confession. Ryals was arrested when he called at & residence where McGuerty was stay- ing for the auditor’s personal belong- ings. His appearance aroused the sus- picion of two other employes of the Audit Bureau of Circulation and police were notified. He was driving the auditor'’s blood-stained car, according to_officers. In the alleged confession Ryals said he met the auditor, whom he knew In Galveston, by accident the day of the slaying, and they took a young man to his home in a neighboring town. Returning to Fort Worth, Ryals re: tedly related, they had an alterca- g‘t‘m on a side road between Arlington and Fort Worth and Ryals shot Mc- Guerty with the latter's gun. Attempted to Hide Crime. The stenographer was quoted as say- ing he then stuffed the body in the turtleback of McGuert; automobile, drove all night to Galveston and buried the body. Ryals, reputedly, drove back to Fort Worth that day and went to the T. R. Kenning residence and endeavored to get McGuerty's belongings. _Continu- « ing, the statement said he then drove to Houston, where he posed as the auditor and telephoned and wrote Mrs. Kenning, telling her to turn over every- thing to a “Mr. Matthews.” He said he also wired McGuerty's ecompany in Chicago, signing McGuer- ty's name and tendering his resigna- tion, with the explanation that he had suffered a nervous breakdown. Justice of the Peace John R. Harris rendered a verdict of death from gun- shot wounds and issued an order for the body to be sent to Arlington, near Fort Worth, for burial.

By the Associated Press. LONDON, October 1. — Increasing weight means increasing good temper. That, at any rate, is the opinion of Robin Ervine, the husband of Ursula Jeans, after & fartnight during which she has been putting on weight. The order for more weight—epoch- making in its novelty—came to Miss Jeans when she was engaged to play in the screen version of “Cavalcade” in America. “This is the first time since we have been married that Ursula has been good- tempered at breakfast,” Ervine sald. Miss Jeans laughingly agreed and added: Had Only Cup of Coffee. “I used to allow myself only a cup of coffee for breakfast, and when one is rising at 6 a.m. to be at the studio at 7 a mere coffee does not make one see the world through rose spectacles.” Miss Jeans was ordered to put 5 pounds on her previous weight of 112. So far she has put on 2 pounds and is proud of it. Here is her recipe for putting on enough and not too much weight: “In the morning,” she said, “I now eat a breakfast of flakes cereal and bacon and with two cups of coffee. “At lunch I have one dish of white meat or fish—I used to have only a little fruit. Never Eats Sweets. “T don't take tea, but at dinner I eat whatever I like—usually soup and meat or fish and some fruit. I never eat any sweets even now, and I still avold starchy foods—bread, potato cakes and too much butter. “Curiously enough, I have lost all taste for sweets. For two years I never tasted a chocolate, though many times I longer for just one. Then when the order came for more weight I tried eat- ing them. “But I found I had lost all taste for them. My first chocolate for two years was the greatest disappointment I have ever known. It just seemed sickly.
