The hashbang at the top of a script only applies when you execute the 
script file directly. Since you're invoking the ruby interpreter 
yourself and passing the script path as an argument, it will be ignored.

Use:

   do shell script "arch -i386 ruby '/Applications/ 
Scripting/Ruby/Tests/test.rb'"
