PEEPING SCHOOL MORALITY CASE IS NEARING END Defense Asserts Charges Against Principal Are Part of Plot. By f nltnl Pr*n MORGANTOWN. W. Va., Nov. 19. —Dr. John T. West, Morgantown high school principal, perjured himself in denying cnarges of misconduct with a high school teacher, it was charged today as his immorality trial neared a jury. District Attorney Albert Schuman declared both Miss Esther Williams, teacher accused with the principal, and Dr. West, made false statements in denying testimony of the three “peeping” janitors. The issue in the case, he said, was "whether the schools of this city are to become house of ill-fame.” The charges against Dr. West were termed part of a conspiracy to oust him from office, by Senator M. M. Neely, chief of defense counsel. The case will be given to a jury early this afternoon. Neely, in the final defense argument, branded Percy H. Smith, night watchman a “spy And a snooper, a crawling, creeping thing.” Smith had given the chief prosecution testimony of the alleged amorous scenes in Dr. West’s office. Charged Part of Plot The whole action was part of a plot of Superintendent Charles E. McCorkle to oust Dr. West from office, Neely said. Neely accused McCorkle of seeking Dr. West’s dismissal because he feared the principal was to be elected superintendent. Assistant District Attorney John W. Downs, in the first state argument, said the case should have been settled by the school'board. When the board found it was in hot water, it passed the buck to the prosecuting office,” Downes said. He said the evidence against Dr. West could not be disregarded, even though the method of obtaining evidence was distasteful.” Cites State's "Apology” “The state’s attorney apologized for the state’s case.” former Judge I. G. Lazelle, presenting the first defense argument, said. "He insinuated West is fighting for his salary, not to vindicate his good name. He knows that is a lie, because West is on leave of absence on full pay.” The trial opened Monday. Two janitors and Smith testified to the alleged meetings of Dr. West with Miss Williams and Miss Blanche Garfield, another teacher. The reference to Miss Garfield was stricken out, as Dr. West is being tried only on the charge involving Miss Williams.” Both Dr. West, and Miss Williams denied the charges when they testified Wednesday. Dr. West claimed McCorkle was afraid he (West) I would succeed him. West has been principal eighteen years and Miss Williams a teacher for almost ten years. CAR DIVES OFF ROAD; DRIVER IS HURT BADLY Blinded by Light of Approaching Auto, Motorist Loses Control, Blinded by the lights of an approaching automobile, Frank Melloy, 45, of 1132 Perry avenue.

Harold Butler, 646 Eugene street, escaped without injuries Wednesday night when an automobile he was driving was struck by a train at Morris street and the Belt railroad. Knocked down by an automobile in front of his home, Lowell Anderson, 3, 1226 South Talbott street, sustained a broken collar bone.

Persistent rumors that me Salvation Army makes a charge for I clothing given by the public for free distribution to the needy are branded as false by Major James Murphy, divisional commander. "In justice to the organization, 1 misunderstandings which have arisen and questions asked on our methods of collecting and distributing clothing should be cleared up.” Major Murphy said today. , The Salvation Army works through three distinct units, Major Murphy explained, i “Tfip relief department collects and distributes clothing and shoes absolutely free, and also purchases them when occasion requires. There is no charge to recipients. “If people give clothing for the ; needy to this department, they are assured those who receive the garments will not be required to pay. “Members of home leagues connected with the three evangelistic posts in this city make clothes for children, particularly layettes, without receiving remuneration of any kind. This group does not collect, but makes the clothes and distributes them to needy families under the care of the Salvation Army, without cost. “The Industrial Home for'men is self-supporting and, consequently,
