Charlotte, Aug. 19—Trial of Floyd Herman Bennett of High Point on charges of checkflashing was postponed today in city court when jailers, attempting to unlock Bennett’s cell and take him to court, broke the key in the lock. Efforts to open the cell proved ineffectual. Bennett also is held in default of $5,000 bond on charges of seducing with promise to marry Miss Loretta Iawing (Lawing?), 16, of Charlotte, who was his companion in a recent escapade at High Point.
