MEDICAL HEAD! Kennell-Ellis Photo Dr. E. L. Zimmerman, Eugene physician who as president-elect will become president next year of the Oregon State Medical so ciety which opens Its fifty-seventh annual convention In Eugene, Thursday, for three days. H. C. Howe Believes Col ored Star Will Get Hearing Soon Joe liillard, colored University of Orpcon football star, may ypt Kt his chance in the Faeific Coast confer ence. Rnmorg to the contrary, TJllnrd doos not plan to enter the professional prizefipht rinc nnd he will continue his studies at the University of Ore l?on. It in probnhle that his case will be reopened between now and the first of the year, and that Lillard may be reinstated an an amateur player after the next meeting of the conference ojnjruls. Prof. II. C. Howe. Orpjron'a rep resentative on the Pacific Coast con ference committee, said Wednesday that the colored star would probably get n chance to tell his own story to the conference heads. "I believe the committee acted too hastily in the Lillard case, and that Joe should he civen an opportunity to present his own case." Howe said. "I have talked with him dtirinc the past few days nm am convinced that much of the evidence prpsented at the conferencp meetintr could have bepn cleared up had Lilian, bpen prpent. There seems to lw fnrthpr evidence snnportine the colored boy's claim that he is innocent of professional ism, and whilp I can make no definite statempnt at the present time. I be lieve that he will tret a chance to testify in his own behalf." That Lillard will be able to play before the end of the present season seems not probable, but his Orecon supporters nrp convinced that the col ored star is innocent of the charues phicod flatly acainst him by Jonnthan Butler, coast conference "canr." The Portland meeting at which Lil lard was disqualified was a secret affair, nnd little has been said of tne evidence presented. It is known, however, that Lillard was thrown out on a charce of havino played basebnll under an nssiimpd name.

Each investiea tioii, however, went for naught, the suspects either having disappeared or proved other identities. Meanwhile authorities pieced to gether evidence in the lives of Mrs. Judd and the slain women, Mrs. Le Hoi and Miss lledvie Snmuelson hoping to gain information thafj wouui nt a motive, un tne tueorics advanced, three stood out. They are jealousy, or insanity, or illicit inti macies. Theories Advanced One of these, authorities agreed, probably would explain the tragedy in which the two women were shot and killed, the body of one. dismem bered and the remains of both placed in trunks and a valise and forwarded here by train from Phoenix. Arizona, where the three had been employed in a medical clinic. The crimes were discovered by a railroad agent who saw blood filter ing through cracks in one of the trunks. When Mrs. Judd and her brother, B. J. McKinnell, university student here, arrived to claim the baggage, he demanded that she open the trunks but she fled, pretending that she did not nave the keys. The theory of intimacies was based, almost wholly, on a dairy in the possession of County Attorney Lloyd J. Andrews of Phoenix who flew here to aid in the search. St ran ae Affection It told, police said, a story of a strange affection between the two victims and a sudden chnnged am tude and actions of Mrs. Judd, who once had lived with them. In a letter written by Dr. W. C Judd, husband of the alleged slayer, to her last October 6, police found another possible theory of a de ranged mind. In it. he asked her to try to exert a little self-control. "I will remind you for one thing that you wrote me tirst that your fat her was dvirnr. fntallv in lured, next that you wanted to bring your patients out here, next that your father was on the verge of pneu monia (which neither you nor any one else knows to be the case). . . Ruth, dear, you ask 'why' must I be away from my parents? . . Pit tell you why. It is because you have not wanted to be with them." Warned Aoalnst Dope In an unexplained statement, the writer takes "blame for the entire situation during the past year or more. He advised her he was afraid "you are in danger of getting your self into a serious condition. You want to get hold of yourself." He referred to a mild narcotic which shn apparently had been talking and said "it will knock your nervous system to a fare-you-well if you don t cut it out. The theory of jealousy was based upon police knowledge that many similar crimes have been committed in a storm of temper over the more fortune circumstances of the victim A disclosure also was made that Miss Samuelson, in her diary, had subscribed to a hedonistic philosophy, nolice said.

U.R Motion pictures of the disputed Watts to Itailey pass, and the sutaequent in eligibility of Joe Lillard, negro foot ball halfback, proved that Washing ton should have defeated Oregon here, Oct. 10. These were among ninny observa tions today of Dr. Si. Lyle Spencer, president of the University of Wash ington in a aperinl interview with a representative of the Seattle Star. 'Washinton, however, will not ac cept a forfeit of the, game under the eligibility ruling," Dr. Spencer said, "because Oregon is broke, needs the money, nnd to hnve the game rhnlked up as a loss would ruin its season." Dr. Spencer leveled another shaft nt Oregon when nsked concerning Head Coach Jimmy Phclan. "Jimmy Phelnn is on the road to accomplishment," he said. "lie has personality, ability, sport smiinship.

The railroads were left with no apparent alternative but to accept the plan.

Major farm produrts Including wheat, corn, cotton, livestock, nnd most fresh fruits nre not to be lev ied ngainst further.

The Increase tn the number of workers with jobs was reported by the labor depnrlment a .8 per cent for September. Payroll totals de creased 2.8 per cent, a fact which tho department attributed largely to n widespread observation of labor day without nay. The fnrm board announced on Oc tober ,1 it was prepnred to authorize the grain and cotton stabilization corporations to sell wheat and cot ton at market prices to appropriate relief agencies. The purchases could be mado for cash or on deferred payments. HUNTING DOG SOLD THROUGH REGISTER-GUARD WANT AD A little ad In the LIVE STOCK column Is aura to get results for YOU.
