Burch, was indicted yesterday charged with the murder here a week ago of J. Belton. Would Talk Freely Other deputies working on the Kennedy case stated that Fox had been recalled because Mrs. Obe n chain had said she would talk freely if she could talk to him. Earlier in the day she told inter viewers that she could tell a story that would restore her freedom but said "it would not be fair to a person in whose innocense I be lieve." She declined to say whether she referred to Burch. j Miotgun Part Found j Other developments today were sparse. The stock of a double barrelled shotgun, found in the ocean near Santa Monica canyon rnd turned over to the sheriff late last night was tested today to de termine whether it was a 12 gauge gun. The shells found at the borne of the slain man, who was killed by a charge ot shot, were from a 12-gauge gun. Experti Called It was also stated that experts would be called to compare the firing pin on the recovered por tion of the gun with the Indenta tions on the shells found where Kennedy was shot. This was to bo done tonight. ' When Fox left the woman's department of the county Jail be declined to talk to newspape-m- and hurried to the office of the district attorney, rsere he had a long talk with that official, both maintaining strict silence about the reason for Fox's retail from Arizona, as jwell as what had transpired after his return. , The district) attorney, while de clining to discuss those features of the case, said he had learned enough additional facts today to lead him to believe that the stock and firing mechanism ot the take down shotgun tound near Santa Monica, were? portions of the gun that had bee ij used in the Ken nedy hooting He declined to explain why ie thought so. Two more witnesses wrere added to ' the li3t of those to be pre sented when the case goes before a jury. The names of both were withheld by the authorities and they were hastened from the Hall of Records by automobile after they were interviewed. One was p. man who told tlenutv sheriffs 'hat on the night of the shooting he had met ' a roadster of the make that Burch admitted driv ing, which was running rapidly toward the beach. He said he would not attempt to identify the uriver. The other and more defi nite bit of evidence was produced iy a man who identified Burch as a visitor to the beach near Santa Monica the night of the shooting. 31 ore Evidence Soncht The district attorney has been sceKing evidence to show that Hurch visited; the beach because various circumstances led to the Dei let . that the weapon had been tnrown Into the ocean.

He attended Willamette university in 1861, when the old Oregon insti tute frame building was the sole stock in trade. He was here dur ing tho great flood of 1861, when 300 people who were drown ed out of their homes, found refuge in the old Willamette col lege hall. It was pretty crowded livinR, but 'they survived the crowding with all the courage of pioneers. Mr. Cook visited out over the campus and through the city while, here thi3 time. The changes have been so many and so violent that there is little now standing that he could recall from the Ions ago. The old family residence, however, is still intact, in the north part of town.
