Text of Note Given
Hickman wrote to "Dale" that
he believed he could trust him and
wanted his advice. The letter said:
"I Intend to throw a fit la court.
All these depositions won't save
me. I will ask the judge to let me
talk without my attorney batting
in. Then I'll throw a craty, raving,
diving fit.
"I will take a crack at Keyes
too before the thing's over. For
God's sake tear this up or it will
ruin me."
It was figned:
"William E. Hckman, alias the
Uox. Ha: Ha! Ha!
"P. S. You know and I know
I'm not insane however."
"Sane" S.ijh Reynolds
After Sellers had testified Keyes
called for Dr. Cecil Reynolds, Los
Angeles brain surgeon and men
tal disease expert. Taking the
! stand the Dhvsician raM h haA
examined Hickman four times
since his return from Oregon
where he was captured. Without a
moment's hesitation the witness re
plied "Sane," when the chief pros
ecutor asked him for his opinion
on the youth's mentality. He had
found many diseased brains among
persons he had examined, but not
in the case of Hickman. "Extreme
ly tough" was his description of
the mental structure of the defeiw
dant.
A decided sense of humor. Dr.
Reynolds said, and the absence of
any trace of delusions proved to
him that Hickman was mentally
normal. Then followed another
tale of the crime given the med
ical man in answer to questions
put to Hick man Jn his cell. The
killer "thought he felt sorr

tie girl, he told the alienist.

Axes Used To Break Into
Community Hall At
Ferndale, Oregon
PLAN TO GROUP MARION
CLUBS INTO DISTRICTS
(Continued from Page One)
WALLA WALLA. Wash.. Feb.
3 (AP) Locked out of their
community hall by the man who
donated the land on which it was
built. 20 irate citizens and farm
ers of Ferndale, Ore., near, here
today took matters into their own
hand?, using an axe to smash the
nadlock on the door.
James O. Howton, justice ofJ
the peace of Milton, Ore., deeded
the land to the Ferndale com
munity 17 year3 ago. The deed
contained a proviso that the la
and the building to be erected
upon were to be used only for
"community" purposes. Howton
contended that use of the building
as a school house violated the
deed.
The building which was erected
upon the land following the gift
to tje community was built by
popular subscription and com
munity labor. It was used in
connection with the Ferndale
school as a gathering place for
the production of plays, basket
ball games and similar events.
The Feridale school burned
t.vo years ago and authorities de
cided to use t!; building tem
porarily as a school house. Re
cently Howton gave notice that he
w'shed the deed of gift torn up,
'aiming that it was forfeited
ough use of the building as a
chooV
The board took no action and
Howton then demanded 1100,
threatening to lock it np if the'
money was not forthcoming. Yes
terday, when basketball teams
went to use the hall for a game
a padlock and "no trespassing"
slen were found. So the citizens
opened the hall with no ceremon?
today.
Howton could not be reached
for a statement tonight.

HICKMAN'S CASE ENDS
PROSECUTION BEGINS
(Continued from ptfe 1) J
geles, one of the defense medical
experts who took the stand late
yesterday, continued today as the
target for a stiff cross fire from
the prosecution. His "dementia
praecox" theory came in for a
heavy battering from District At
torney Keyes.
Symptoms Recited
"Divine guidance," in crime, as
claimed by the prisoner, was the
text of much of Dr. Shelton's tes
timony. Indicating to the medical
man abnormality amounting to in
sanity.
He was followed by Dr. A. L
Skoog of Kansas City, who said
that he had examined Hickman
six times .between January 25 and
February 1, and "believed him to
be- insane."
The state turned a searching
cross examination on Dr. Skoog
who was regarded as the chief de
fense alienist, but the Kansas City
expert stood firm in his expressed
belief that the prisoner had an
unbalanced mind.
To Keyes the witness listed what
he considered the outstanding
characteristics of the confessed
killer's mental condition, delu
sions of grandeur, assertion of di
vine guidance and ideas of super
iority.
Everything Explained, Claim
Dr. Skoog cited the facts of the
killing and dissecting of Marian
Parker's body as "most likely the
result of an abnormal mind "
The fit which officers said
Hickman "faked" in the jail at
Pendleton, Ore., after his capture
there, his flight from Justice, his
confession that he kidnaped and
killed Marian Parker and dismem
bered her body to get $1600 from
her father all could be explained.
the witness maintained, jjy insane
delusions.
At this point Keyes introduced
In evidence a photostatic copy of
a. letter written by Hickman to a
fellow' prisoner in the county jail
after the sanity trial was well un
der way. It was given to Dr. Skoog,
who was asked if It shed any light
on the mind of the medical scien
tist as to" whether the defendant
was sane or insane. The physician
replied that It did not.
The letter was addressed to
"Dale Budlong" and voiced Hick
man's fear that the deposition to
be submitted as the bulwark of
his defense would prove Inade
quate. "I intend to throw a fit in
court," he wrote, and added that
he would take a "crack at Keyes.'

"Tammany hall is spectacular

icipal government," A. E. Roberts,
of New York, representing the na
tional organization of the Y. M. C.
A. told members of the Salem
Lions club yesterday.
"If Tammany hall Is the last
word In democracy, I want none
of it. Municipal government has
fallen down for the reason that
too many people have been miss
ed. Every nation has died of the
same disease -over-urbanism."
The country is menaced by a
dearth of leadership because the
well-spring of supply, the farming
communities has been neglected.
The country boy is a better poten
tial leader, Mr. Roberts said, be
cause city boys are steeped in ab
normalities and artificialities. He
urged that the scope of commun
ity work extend to getting coun
try boys a proper chance for an

Mike McTigue No Match
For Aberdeen Assassin
r1
By EDWARD J. NEIL
Associated Frees Sports Writer
NEW YORK, Feb. 8. (AP).
The comeback cruise of Michael
McTigue, perennial challenger,
and sometimes champion in the
light heavyweight division, was
halted tonight by the youthful
Leo Lomskl, iron-fisted blonde
slugger from Aberdeen, "YVaSh.
For 10 rounds, the tlrelees
punching youngster threw every
thing he had at McTigue In an ef
fort to bring the ancient of the
prize ring down. The veteran
wobbled, skidded, danced" and par-
ried, and although blood streamed
from gashes above his eyes and his
legs were stiff as stilts, Mike wae
still on his feet and fighting game
ly at the final gong.
It was a battle of youth confi
dent, and old age easily tired and
bereft of almost everything but
the canny fighting brain that
made Mike McTigue famous. And;
although Lomski slashed both of
Mike's eyes, open in the fifth
round, he could not floor him, and
Lomski himself ran Into one stiff
left hook that ripped his right
eyebrow.
From the start, the corn-haired
westerner threw himself Into the
fray recklessly, fists pouring In a
steady stream at McTigue's head
and body. Mike blocked and re
treated, fended and ducked, and
saved the right hand that bowled
over a dozen opponents until the
fifth round.
Then as the etorm became un
bearable, Mike threw away his
lng power on the flailing young
ster. One vicious chop cut Lorn-
ski's eye In the fifth, but both Mr.
Tlgue's eyes were gashed in tLe
exchange and Leo refused to re
treat. From that point on, each round
added to the venerable one's din
comfort. Carrying an added bur
den of nearly 40 years, Mike wjq
punch dreamy at the close of t)i-
seventh ana elgnth sessions, sxzi
gering when the ninth was o
and barely navigating, although
still struggling through the n na
tions when the match ended.
McTigue had a slight advant;.?
in the weights, scaling IT.) j
pounds to 170 4 for Lom-Ui.
