Gus Matthews, of High Point, was
arrested there Tuesday afternooa up-on
suspicion that he la connects*
with the robbery dt $1,600 from the
Bank of Summerfleld Monday morn-ing.
He was brought tq the county
Jail here.
It Is not charged that Matthews
Is the man who entered the beak

but it Is thought that he auny
be an accessory ot the stlck-ap man.
Mr. Simpson and Mr. Hosklns said
■Msttthews Is not the man who held
them up.
According to two women, a Mrs.
Oafhoun and a Mrs. TIHett. who live-on
tbe Hillsdals road, which

road near Summergeld, aa
houT before the robbery of the hank

•topped and one of the two men ft*
it went Into the woods near Suas-meraehf,
the other remaining la th*
car. Their description of the ear
seems to fit Matthews' automobile.
The man remaining in the car turn-ed
around antf drove back late IB*
Greensboro-Summerfleld road.
Matthewa is being held oa the
theory that he may be the man who
remained In tbe car and that tbe
plans of tbe two Included) his wait-ing
to pick up the robber when th*
Utter made hie getaway. The plan
failed. It ds thought, becaaee the
man In the automobile lost his nerve,
or there was * mistake In tbe time
agreed upon by the two men.
Matthews waa In Summerfleld at
tfhe time of tbe robbery. In bis ear,
an Oldsmobtle. at a garage near the
bank. His explanation Is that ha
bad gens to Summerfleld to t trade
cars with the owner of the garage.
Ha waa Questioned a*-officers seek-ing
the bank robber Monemy, hue
waa allowed to go. He denies that
be had anything whatever to do
witb the robbery.
He Is about M years old. Before
going to High Point to live he lived
at KernersvlUe. He worked at tbe
mills in High Point, but it is eeM
thst he baa "hot had employment to
the past taw weeks. "
The hunt for the man who robbed
tfhe bank Is being carried! on but
without success. How he got away
on foot, if he escaped that way, is
strange.
The theory having been advanced
that the killing of M. C. Spry here

of the bank was exploded when
