Rogers to force drastic alteration of ac counting methods in the state unemployment, eompen s a 1 1 o n commission through legal action were rendered fruitless yester day by Circuit Judge L. G. Lew elling when he dismissed the case of Rogers ts. Earl Snell as sec retary of state, and declared. that a companion case of Rogers vs. the unemployment commission would eventually hare to be dis missed. The complaint against the sec retary of state had sought to foree audit of the accounts of the unemployment compensation commission for the period 193S to March 29. 1932, by the divi sion of audits of the secretary of . state's office. The Judgment dismissing the case was made on the ground that such an audit has already been . made, and that the matter now was merely a moot question. The court declared that the complaint against the unemploy ment commission, which sought to force the commission to set up separate accounts for each employer contributing in accord ance with law, had not yet reached- a point where it might be dismissed, but that a motion to strike which was upheld would virtually eliminate the cause of action from it Circuit Court Ormond R.

A mncnine gun a plane (ote tangled 'chute ropes) Chte thrills Five Skeletons Found by Willamette Students in Calapooya Mounds; one Estimated Three By WINSTON Willamette university students on Saturdays during: re cent Weeks have excavated over 200 cubic yards of earth in two mounds located near Harrisburg-, in a search for skeletal remains of ! the Calapooya tribe of Indians. The expeditions have been led by William Laughlin, student curator of the university museum. Five complete skeletons are theQ principal finds in tpe mounds. The oldest of these, estimated to be 300 yearsi old. was on the bot tom of the mound, which is about six feet high; Remains of two ad ult males, two children about nine years of age and one baby were uncovered, i The group: dug eight trenches and took out a minimum of 1875 cubic feet of! earth. The smallest excavation was aboujt ! cubic feet and the largest approximate ly 810. The mounds were first tapped about fire years ago and a skele ton taken from one, I which had yielded three other sets of bones to a previous collector Eight trips were taken this year, the digging parties consisting of from three to IS students. Six if the trips were profitable from a discovery standpoint and all from a view Of knowledge obtained, according to Laughlln. Obaldiaa Chipping Found Located on opposite sides of a slough, which once formed a part of a flowing stream, jthe mounds are now Covered wljth a thick growth of brush and small trees. The larger Is approximately 80 by 134 feet. The tribe jhad camped along the stream anid Laughlln says that former habitation on the mounds themselves is eviden ced in fire levels aad obsidian chlppings found throughout. The mounds were formed by scooping from the stream bed earth to cover the bodies. All the skeletons were found near the bottom of the mound. though some nearer he outside, indicating more recfent burial. They were on their Bides in a pre natal position, with knees up un der the chin and heads! to the east, probably indicating sj belief in some form of after-life. The more recent had a necklace of copper beads which had start ed to corrode. Another, a boy of about nine, wore a iiecklace of shells from California. One Unusually Large One of thei adult skeletons was of huge build for the Calapooya tribe, according to LsiughUn. It was about ft j feet, Inches talL The presence of; the shells and the large bones was unexplained.
