Oinui Culey. age 2J. who leupett vviien the derrick started to lull, sustained a broken leg and arm. Leonard M'c-Kee. another worker on ihe derrick, escaped without injury. All o( the men in the accident are residents of the Applegute uis triet, where they are wHl known. ILaskin, whoso father resides in ihe Squaw Lake section, was rushed to this city after the accident and lingered until Saturday iright. The three men mounted the poles of the derrick, w hu h is hehl in place hy a cable, to make repairs as the rope used (o lift the hay was caught, in the rin-;. The ring, it developed later, had crystallized and broke when they tugged mmn it, causing the poles with the men to crash to earth. Culey leaped. McKee miracu lously escaped death or injury and llaskin was crushed beneath one or the falling timbers. llaskin, who lost hit' life, was a world war veteran and the last rites will be held under the auspices of the Mod ford post oi the American Lesion. Immediately toll. w in.-; the acci dent Dr. It. W. Shams of lhis,city was called and rendered liist aid. later removing ihe injured man to the Community hospital. A HOLE IN ONE1 Medford has another member of the holu-in-one club. Yesterday w htle playing on the Medford couire with tiain Kobinson and Hubert W. 'luhl, Kd .lanney. well known city councilman and busi ness man, hit a straight mashie shot for the pin on the short PUh hole. The ball Kept true to its course and finally lodged between the pin and the rim of the cup. vine former being tilled toward lire rim so Ihe ball could not drop down to the hollom of the cup on that side. When the pole was drawn out. and before the ball had been 1 touched, down Ihe latter dropped and. according to the rules. Mr. Januey is entitled to a case of Can adian Dry linger ale and a number of other prizes. ' A htile-in-one was probably never V more deserved. The shot was a perfect one from every standpoint, Ihe hi I', was never deflected in lis course and had Ihe pole been up right instead ol slanting Hie ball would have rested on Hie hot loin instead of the top of the cup. After this distinguished feat the local abstractor proceeded lo cele brate by gelling an S on the lasi bole and piling up a total over Km" for the IS.
