EDICT UED TRAINS ROBBERS (By the Contest Editor) "Opportunity Week" has come and gone, and, contrary to expec- tations. nobody has the prizes cin ched yet. Several of the contestants thought that they could do the trick in that week. The unexpect ed has happened, and it is still -a very even race for honors by sev eral contestants. The work done between now and next Saturday night will undoubtedly determine - the winner of the famous Trego ra dio. Candidates should concentrate their attention this week in get ting enough money on subscrlp , ttons, old or new, to win this spe- ; clal prise. . This special prize U in addition to the other prizes, and while you ajp working for it, you also pile up the rotes for the automobiles. There is still room for more con- 7 testa nts to enter and carry off the prizes. This is evidenced by the fact that one list sent in Saturday by B. L. Holland not only put him ahead in District No. 2. but also in the entire contest. He is to be congratulated. Some of the candidates do not realize just how important the ra dio offer is, or just how easy it is for some one to win this special prize. Many of the candidates are lying down and stay thre are no more subscriptions to secure. They ; are the ones that will b sorry at the end of the contest. 1 It Will Take Work Don't Just see your friends, but make a house-to-house canvass and you will see the many subscrip tions that you will secure. The vote schedule declines after next Saturday. February 18, and subscriptions will never count a si many votes again in the contest as they do this week. Accordingly; it la to your advantage to do your ut most this week to secure subscrip tions not only for the votes but' also for the special radio prize. Then, too, for every $10.00 worth of subscriptions turned in. you get an extra ballott good for 10 J. 000 votes. Just figure out for yourself what this all means. There is just one week left to! wu this radio, as the radio peri od closes Monday. February 20, at d!dnight and the radio will be awarded to the candidate who turns in the most money on sub scriptions, old or new, for the-three w treks period ending that date. ( all the contest editor and he will be glad to explain the details iu full and help you out at any time in any way that is fair. Don't let me see you quit right now, when it la your best time, but get busy. Ask your friends if they know of any of their friends whb would care to take The Statesman. You can win if you Just make up yur mind to that effect. Let me s-e you get busy. It is up to you ' whether you win or not. It is all la vour state of mind.

District No. 1, City of Salem: IIael Anderson Petty Thefts Gradually Lead Up To Bigger and Big ger Things SEATTLE. Feb. 13. (A P) Under the tutelage of an ez-con-vict. three youths attended a ver itable crime school for the last 18 months during which they par ticipated in about two score rob beries, three policemen declared tonight in reporting the case to Chief of Police Herring. AH four are in jail, while three members are said to' have confessed, one of the youths denying all connec tion with the robberies. Starting with petty thefts, prin cipally milk bottles, the man grad ually grew . bolder and within a few months held up the operator of a one-man street car, the con fessions say. None of their thefts however, were pretentious and their total loot is estimated at not more than $5,000. The prisoners are: Charles Sor enson, alias Swanson. 38, who was released from Monroe reformatory two and a half years ago. and is credited with tutoring the others in crime; James Franklin. 18. a negro who admitted that he drove an automobile In gas station rob beries, entered houses and dispos ed of the loot; Leonard Gunder son. 20, who denies participation in the thefts, and Julius Carlson. 20.
