GREEK MEETS GREEK AND FIGHT FOLLOWS FOREIGNERS WITH UNPRONOUN CEABLE NAMES MIX UP ON WEST 8IDE. When Greek meets Greek there Is not always a tug of war and this was well Illustrated Thursday night when Tom Mormenkea, armed with a small calibre revolver, chased Makes Sot- ereu up the main road in West Ore gon Cl:y until Cotereu dashed Into cover by seeking refuge at the home of Mrs. Jessie Smith. It was no tag of war, but simply a wild pursuit. Mermenkes has fled. The police want him. Two charges have been filed against him in Justice of the Peace Samson's Court. Thursday morning he became subject to an as sault and battery charge by beating Jimmle Economos, who swore out a warrant tor the arrest of his country man. Constable Miles went to Port land after Mermenkes, but the Greek doubled on his tracks and came back to Oregon City and created further trouble by lying In wait late Friday afternoon for Sotereu. Armed with the big stick Mermekeg laid behind a clump of rose bushes and swatted Sotereu as he passed. Not deigning to show fight, Sotereu took to his heels, closely followed by Mermenkes, who fired two shots, both going wild. The Greeks, to the number of six or seven, have been living together In a house In West Oregon City. They speak little or no English and the cause of the trouble Is almost impos sible to determine. They all work in the paper mills. Mermenkes being em ployed by the Crown-Columbia Pulp & Paper Company. He haa probably de parted from the city and so far he haa evaded capture.
