him here all the more heartily.

County School Supt.
Li Barnes and Lloyd Blauer were
the victims of a professional "touch."
a week ago Saturday night. They
had cashed their checks and were
hurrying to catch the train to Bea
verton. Each of them noticed, but
without particular thought, a man
who jostled through the crowd but
did not get on the train when it
came. 'A little later they discovered
that Mr. Barnes was $32 short and
Mr. Blauer had lost $10, but both
were richer in experience. They are
not the only victims of Portland's
wave of crime, but so far, we have
heard of no other Beaverton people
to suffer.
