Raleigh, May 27 (AP)—Alvin Mansel, Buncombe county negro convicted of attacking a white woman, must die in the electric chair at State Prison, the State Supreme Court decided today. No error sufficient to order a new trial was found by the court. June 11th, the third Friday after the certification of the opinion, is automatically set as the date for the electrocution.
