Machine-Gun Kelly’s Schoolmate
Beaumont Man Relates
Gangster Story Plots
David Haines, Ann Hull Will
Marry in Spur on Saturday
By FRANK DAVIS
Battalion News Staff
“Eleven years ago in the Fall
or early Spring, I remember it
was cool, two masked men broke
into the bedroom of Mr. and Mrs.
L. C. Forest in the early morning.
Mr. Forest was the cashier for
the Prendergast Smith National
Bank, Mexia.”
This was the beginning of a tale
about a daring and well planned
bank robbery that has. not been
solved to this day. It was told by
R. H. Magruder of Beaumont, dis
trict manager of the Amicable
Life Insurance Company and a for
mer resident of Mexia.
“Cautioning the couple against
outcry, the two men related their
intent to rob the bank that morn
ing. Careful but courteous, the
bandits made themselves com
fortable until the time arrived
for the cashier to go to the-bank.
“Growing cold from the early
morning air, Mrs. Forest requested
that the window be closed. The men
not only complied with this request,
but turned on the gas heater as
well.
“Locking the housewife in a
closet, the three drove to the bank
in an old model Ford, furnished by
the robbers. Entering the bank by
the back door, the men greeted the
staff as they entered the building,
lining them against the wall.
“When the time vault opened at
9 a. m., one man scooped up the
contents, while the other kept the
group at gun point.
“The employees were then
herded into the vault, and the
bandits left by the back door.
Roads were blocked, planes
searched, but the men vanished
as mists before the rising sun.
Magruder then proceeded to tell
the inside story of the notorious
criminal, Machine Gun Kelly.
George Barnes, alias Machine
Gun Kelly, studied agriculture at
Mississippi A&M at Starkville—in
the same class with Magruder.
“Kelly was the son of a widow
in Memphis, Tenn., and at college
was accepted into the best homes.
He was a good looking man in his
military uniform, had light brown
hair and brown eyes.
“However after his mother
died, Kelly returned to Memphis
where the crime trail began and
eventually ended for the number
one criminal of his day. But that
was after the famous Urschel
Kidnapping.
“Before Bames met Catherine
Kelly, an East Texas girl, he was
just a small time operator, being
picked up and convicted of such
crimes as high-jacking and boot
legging.
“Whether the kidnaping episode
was conceived by Barnes or Cath
erine Kelly is not known, although
she was considered the “brains”
of the organization. But neverthe
less after the kidnaping, they re
turned to Memphis and there
Barnes coined the phrase “G-Men”
which today is the pseudo-name
for the agents of the FBI.
“It happened in this manner:
When FBI men with the aid of
local police closed in on Kelly in
his Memphis hide-out one dawn,
Kelly was found cowering in a
corner muttering, don’t shoot, G-
Men.
“Don’t shoot, What?” asked one
of the agents.
“G-Men-Government men,” said
Kelly. And the name stuck.
Asked what was the origin of
the nickname “Machine Gun Kelly,”
Magruder replied that “Kelly” was
derived from his association with
Catherine Kelly. He said there are
two stories how the “Machine
Gun” got started.
A wedding ceremony at the
First Baptist Church in Spur Sat
urday evening united Miss Ann
Hull and David Haines, recent
graduate of A&M.
The bride is the daughter of A.
C. Hull of Spur, who gave her in
marriage. The bridegroom is the
son of Mr. and Mrs. Paul Haines
of College Station. The elder Mr.
Haines is with the Agronomy De
partment of the College.
The Rev. Cal Wright, pastor of
I the First Methodist Church, Spur,
officiated. Mr. and Mrs. Malcolm
Edwards provided the nuptial
music.
Mrs. Haines wore a gown of
white organza over taffeta made
with a draped bodice and full skirt
of imported Chantilly lace. The
hemline was scalloped. Her train
was chapel-length. A shoulder-
length veil was fashioned of illu
sion and fell from a scalloped
Chantilly lace cap. Her flowers
were stephanotis and lillies-of-the-
valley. These were formed into a
traditional bouquet which she car
ried.
Mrs. Harry H. Jung, Jr., was
matron of honor and Mrs. Tom Ed
wards, sister of the bridegroom,
was bridesmatron. The bridesmaids
were Miss Patsy Kalver of San
Antonio and Miss Jenny Leon of
Rotan. Junior bridesmaid was Miss
Sue Hull, sister of the bride.
Kathryn and Tommy Edwards,
daughter and son of Capt. and
Mrs. Tom Edwards, were flower
girl and ring bearer.
Keith Haines, brother of the
bridegroom, was best man. Grooms
men included Aggie exes Lt. R. L.
Haines, also a brother of the
groom, of Ft. Sill, Oklahoma; A.
D. Martin, Jr., immediate past
cadet colonel of the Corps, and Fer
ris Brown, Dallas, W. D. Barnes,
Abilene. Ushers were Kirk Gregory
of McCamey, Robert B. Johnson
and Neal A. Chastain.
Mr. and Mrs. E. D. Engleman
were hosts for the reception at
their home in Spur. Assisting in
the house party were Mrs. Engle
man, Mrs. Tom Milam of Lubbock
and Mrs. R. K. Blackshear.
Ann and David will be at home
at the Haines’ summer home on
Lake Woodrow after a wedding
trip to South Texas. David is ex
pecting his call into service im
minently.
Mrs. Haines graduated from
Stephens College in Missouri and
attended the University of Texas
where she was a member of Chi
Omega sorority.
David graduated June 1 from
A&M. He was an officer in the
cadet corps, holding the rank of
colonel, and is now a second lieu
tenant, reserve in the Army.

These lads may not know why they enjoy the free
dom that is the heritage of American youth, so it is
up to you to tell them what freedom means.
When you do so, explain how the flag and all the
symbols of our great democracy are possible because
of the Church.
The historical fact is that freedom in the state,
as we know it, is the natural and logical result of
Christian teaching of equality and justice. It was
through the powerful influence of our Christian fore
fathers that the fundamental idea of a free civil gov
ernment was developed.
When you think of the American way of life, which
we all cherish, remember it is our heritage from
the founding fathers. Then be grateful for their
rugged fidelity to religion and to the Church.
To become a member of the Church—the greatest
of all institutions—is the least you can do to show
gratitude for the priceless privileges you enjoy today.

THE CHURCH FOR ALL . . .
ALL FOR THE CHURCH
The Church is the greatest lac-
tor on earth ior the building of
character and good citizenship. It
is a storehouse oi spiritual values.
Without a strong Church, neither
democracy nor civilization can
survive. There are lour sound
reasons why every person should
attend services regularly and sup
port the Church. They are: (1)
For his own sake. (2) For his
children's sake. (3) For the sake
of his community and nation. (4)
For the sake of the Church itself,
which needs his moral and ma
terial support. Plan to go to
church regularly and read your
Bible daily.
