Va, August 17.—A | Jackson County jury convicted Charles | Harper of first-degree murder yesterday, while another was hearing evidence in the trial of Henry Canto, second of three men charged with slaying a deputy sheriff and his prisoner. Harper stood calmly while the ver- dict was read before a crowded court room and a recommendation for mercy was added, making a sentence to life imprisonment mandatory. Ask Death Penalty. Meanwhile, Canto sobbed' as the State argued for a death penalty. deny- ing defense contentions he should not be liable to death because he was not armed at_the time Deputy Roy Shamb- lin and Harper's brother, Ralph, were shot to death three weeks ago. His_counsel made no effort to deny that Canto was in an automobile from Avuauonl 17, 1933 which bullets were poured into a car driven by officers transporting Ralph to the penitentiary to serve a 25-year sentence for robbery. 's counsel, in opening argu- ments, also conceded that Canto was in the automobile which pursued the pen- itentiary-bound car from Charleston. Not Aware of Intentions. ) mmh ed, however, that the m’u defendant was not aware of ' intentions when he entered the car with Harper and Leo Frazier, also under indictment in the double slaying. The defense also con- tended Canto should be excused from tion because he testified for the te at Harper's trial. J. Blackburn Watts, prosecuting at- torney of Kanawha County in both cases denied defense contentions that circumstances should be considered in mitigation of guilt. He argued that all occupants of the automobile were equally guilty, regardless of who fired the shots which killed Shamblin. MURDER SUSPECT HELD CAMDEN, K.

M. Carri- gan of Catholic U. After years tpr hoping, the children of 8t. Vincent’s Orphanage are able now to splash about in a fine outdoor swimming pool on sweltering days, but |1t is doubtful whether they get any | more pleasure than that of the young | seminarian who made it possible. | Back of the story of this swimming | pool is William M. Carrigan of Cath- | olic University, whose sympathies with the desires of the 140 boys and girls at St. Vincent's found a way to fulfill their hopes. | For several years Carrigan had been trying to raise money to build a pool for the children. Finally he decided to take things into his own hands. He borrowed Rellly, the orphanage work horse, and began to excavate a ‘wading pool, the best he could do with the resources at his command. - A neighborhood contractor saw him plowing up the ground and admired the young seminarian’s determination. p He loaned a truck and shovel. Others | became interested and volunteered their services. They furnished mate- | rial, labor and personal services and | soon half a dozen contractors joined |in and rushed the swimming completion within a few wes e 1216-1220 F was all a volunteer service and as ® result the new pool, which otherwisd| would have cost about $7,000 to build, was formally dedicated Tuesday LY Most Rev.
