The Salem high school football
team will journey to Albany Sat

yet fast team this year, and hare

The local boys will be in much

and Tuesday the boys were able
to hold a stiff scrimmage: Last

without a quarter, but the game
was pulled in as a victory in spite
of the fact. B. Drager is in good
shape again and unless the unex

up once more. - i -

tended to kill the old man, he said
on - the stand, w hen - the Krug
home -was reached.. Weston hit his
victim on the bead with a stick
and then inflicted torture on hira
to determine where he had his
money hidden, Stillwell declared.
After Krug was found to be dead,
Weston was said to have placed
the body on a bed and to hiive ret
the. mattress afire, burning the
house down in an attempt to eradi
cate any evidence of the killing.
It was also indicated during the
trial that the three men. Weston
Stillwell and Wilson, had been
active in liquor operations and
that Krug knew of their activities.
The district attorney declared that
while he believed the murder was
committed primarily for the pur
pose of 'robbery. Weston had ex
pressed, a desire to silence Krug in
connection with the liquor opera
tions. - Weston was said to have
threatened , Krug's life a short
time, before the aged victim was
killed.' The state also offered as-
evidence against the defendant a
note for $300 made out to Krug
by W. S. Fullerton. This is said
to have been found in Weston's
possession after the murder.
In appealing the case, attorneys
for the defense declared that num
erous errors of law had crept Into
the testimony and that hearsay
evidence was permitted to get' into
the records andwas consideredTby
the Jurors In arriving at their ver
'dict. It was also laid that Wilson
and Stillwell had fabricated the
evidence against the defendant in
order to clear themselves from
any material connection with the
murder.'. -' - '
It is believed that Mrs. Weston,
who has been in Salem most of the
time since1 her husband's con vie
tion, was instrumental to a certain
degree in securing Weston's, par

several pleas for executive clem

Nearly 150 Students Are
Now Being Instructed in
Boy Scout Activities
A visit to the Chemawa Indian
school last night revealed a large
number of the boys, actively en
gaged in the program of the Hoy
Scouts of America. About 150
boys are being instructed in Scout
craft under the very splendid lead
ership of Chief Uent and ("apt.
Stacy.
The chief gave a most interest
ing talk on outdoor activities and
stated further that he had recent
ly received letters rom boys who
had attended the school asking for
books and other information on
Scouting as they desired to or
ganize troops and give back to
othe boys the knowledge and bene-?
fits they had received. This bears
out the statement so often heard
that the Scout program trains boys
for leadership.
Capt. Stacy told of two boys
who made a most heroic effort to
save a companion from drowning.
After the body had been removed
from the water one Joy used arti
ficial respiration for over two
hours and on y gave up after he
became exhausted. Scputing
teaches boys to save life and to be
prepared in emergencies. Another
boy in doing his "Daily good turn"
assumed the duties of the matron
at the time she had met with an
injury.
In addition to the interest ot
boj8""who were former Scouts at
the school and the good turns they
have done. Capt. Stacy said that
all of the Scouts believed in clean
speech, and clean living. They
have a decided effect for good
among the 900 now at the school.
Arrangements will soon be
made for an indoor meet at which
Salem hoys will compete with the
Chemewa boys. There are three
troops at Chemawa and a large
class Is expected at the Court of
Honor in the near future to ad
vance in Scoutcraft. Chemawa
has signified her intention to send
the patrol leaders to the conven
tion to be held in Portland Novem
ber 27 to 29.

Marked Success Scored Last Night When
Forrest Taylor Players Appear in Salem

I5y A1TDRED BUNCH
Affain the Forrest Taylor Play
ers scored a marked success before
a filled theater when th?y played,
as their second Salem engagement
last night at the Heilig. VIricenf
Lawrence's comedy "In Love With
Love." The general concensus of
cpinion was that the players had
a less popular vehicle for their
acting than on the week preceding,
all of which means that the lines
of the playwright's inventing did
not strike quite: so far home.
There are a good many in Salem
who still wince at the thought of
a girl proposing so whole-heartedly
to an acquaintance of scarcely
a week's standing. But, then, of
course, on the stage, what's dra
matic, what will bring the denoue
Eient effectively to the denoue
ment desired, is the important
thing.
The Forrest Taylor players are
proving a vast entertainment re
source for the throng of people
who plan to attend the Tuesday
attractions, anticipating each time
new roles for the characters as
they come to
friends. Both

hearty ovations
when they reappeared

last night. . ,
Anne Berryman, this time the
dangerous, the darling, the flirta
tious Ann Jordan of the play, was
an tlantalizing as ever, and her
clothes even more irresistibly de

and as sophisticated as a divorcee,
with admirers planning a continu

The biggest "battle" of the play
brought Frank O a k e s (Cecil
Lrummond) and Robert Metcalf
(Alvin Baird) to an insensate
state. And the audience would
not greatly have cared had the
fight demolished both rivals. A
large bit of the humor of the play
lay in the supreme manner in
v hich these two members of the
company depicted the two varie
ties of the "sap," namely, the
forceful,' brutal type, and the in
tffectual, maudlin kind.
