A note typed on thin yellow paper, flash ed by Deputy Prosecuting Attor-J ney Carmody evidently surprised Clara Elizabeth Skarln, who was on the stand in her own, defense on a charge of murdering Ferdi nand Hochbrunn Just before court adjourned this . evening at the close of the third day of her trial. The note, one of two that Mr. Carmody presented as written by Miss Skarln, also known as Betty Winbprn, to Raymond Harron. a telegraph operator, Kalamazoo, Mich., sent the crowd ;that Jiid thronged the court room trying to fathom its meaning. ' State Closes Case , After Lieutenant of Detectives William E. Kent had related a eonfersion that he said Miss Ska rln made to him in Oakland after her arrest in California last sum mer, declaring that she had killed Hochbrunn, a wealthy . property owner of this city, ctober 13, 1921 in defense of her honor;, the state had closed its case. Miss Skarln had then gone upon the stand as the, first, witness for the defense. Examination of Miss Skarln by both , sides . was finished, though she is expected tp reappear on the stand ' again; " i'"'"' ' i -' '4H , K. Miss Skarln evidently " 'weary after hours of going over her life with Hochbrunn, whom she ac cused of extreme cruelties, was toying with the. frill of her. hand kerchief. She had related how after assaults on her, she bad left Hochbrunn and gone to Michigan, returning shortly before -Hoch-brunh's death, because, she told the Jury, he had promised' to re turn money be had borrowed of h,er. . Suddenly Mr. Carmody asked: ;''.; : ; Defendant Queiied "I)id you ; ever receive any let ter from Herron after ' you ran away?" refering to a trip that Miss ' Skarln made' to Oregon and California' before the death Hochbrunn was. discovered, re maining untH her arrest. "No." she replied. . ? "Did you ever tell him you had been in .Belgium and ; Italy?" Carmody pursued.;. . . , ; "i" " "Why, no," she countered - In evident surprise, "I've never been ufc ut iu9 umieu oiaies. ( tfle" i "I know you haven't," Ouno dy shot back. "Did you ever tell Herron yon were In the.' seoret service?". . -, : . : 1 ' "Why, no," .Did you . write to , him - while you were hiding in California?' "Yes.' ' ' . "And have you written to him while you have been in Jail ? ' ' As Miss Skarln hesitated. Ca'r- mody picked up two' .notesa white one and a yellow one. She examined them, looked, a little embarrassed and admitted as she handed them back that she had written them. ;" ,: - . The white one was written from the IKng county Jail. It said r "I am being held under the name of Clara Skarln I am to be tried for the murder pf Fer dinand Hochbrun'on January 8.' 4B , : t The yellow note is declared y Carmody -to have been written by' Miss Skarin to Herron, while she was In California.'. ?

Two Willamette stu dents attained a rank of 200 points and only 27 felt below the B grade of 105 points. The test is rated as especially creditable to Willamette students. i The Alpha 9 test was used on 200 Willamette freshmen and on volunteers . from . ; the upper classes. . .' - The freshman class rated at an average of 131 : points; the so phomores at 142; the seniors at 146, and the Juniors at 149. In every case, these figures show a lower average with the increase of numbers; y the higher; classes being tested 'only, as ' v61unteers, show higher per cent in propor tion to the numbers examined. ' . Eight Clasaiticatlons , ( i i Eight classifications, each , rep resentiag one phase of intelli gence, or intellectuality r are in cluded. None, of , them take : Into account exceptional talent; in any line; .theare '"average" mental exercises, to measure' the' mental agility and the qdicknesa of per ception. J Each question counts one in a scale pf points; '4 1; would be possible to register 212 points beyond which no measure Is pro vided in this series: It is comfort ing to the average , person : to know that practically ho one since the tests have been used, has ever reached 212 points. ' There might be many who could figure out the correct answers; but to do it within the schedule time, which is the essence of test val ue is the only way to , measure values. '. : -, - The tests are, first. Ability to remember and to - -, follow direc tions in marking crosses into var ious figures on the paper given the applicant: The second has 2 0 arithmetical problems, some of them easy,7 : some harder; they must be answered wlthlng five minutes. The ' third group calls for '-"common sense" 'answers to a number of statements; such as 'Iron is white light hard. The applicant is to cheek off the appropriate word. ' f . ! Questions Vary 'r ' ' The fourth - lists", a.namher of synonyms' and antonyms, and the candidate is to check off the words to match, the key word first given. This calls lor a decent observation of - the j words . one reads every day; it is not a high brow test. The fifth is a group of words that should make a sen tence; that 'Is a statement; the words are to be arranged ; in proper order, and then the state ment is to be answered, true or "false. The sixth gives a series of groups of figures, five in all, In varying numerical, relation; with two added' blanks for carry ing the same relation two steps further. In the same! arithmetical progression. ; This draws many blanks or low scores. ! The seventh is practically - the old "rule of three,'' a series of questions In proportion' or relationship; such as, 'The hand Is to the arm as the foot is to the leg." - ; : - General Questions Asked f -The eighth Is a series of- 40 questions in general j information. It Is in no Bense a series of tricks; though there are some Interesting answers. For instance, one ques tion is, "How t many legs has a Papuen?" It appears that not everybody knows exactly what a rapuen is, whether it crawls or flies or swims or. oozes through intangible space like a spirit or a banshee; one high class collegian said "Sir," when actually a Pa puan is a native pf one of the East India- islands. , La Creole Cannery Has New Automatic Cooker DALLAS, Or., Jan. 12.
