CADET RESIGNSAFTER MARRIAGE LOS ANGELES. Nov. 13. (JP) Search' is under way today for a former Baker ranch cow-hand, bolicvcd by investigators from the Khcrift's office to have been the central figure in the wrecking' and robbery of the Southern Pa cific West Coast Limited near Saugus last Sunday night. Captain Harry Ilrooks, of tho sheriff 'a robbery detail, said a laundry mark on a torn coat, found near the wrecked train, had revealed tho identity of the sus pect. Other employes on the ranch,, he said, had identified tho coat as one belonging to a "half crazed cowboy," who has been missing from the ranch since Sun day afternoon.' The man's name waS not revealed. y Brooks said he believed the sec ond man described by pasienpcni. who were robbed of between $300 and $500. was an escaped nar cotic addict from Spadra state hospital. That one of the robbers may have picked up a ride to Los An geles shortly after the wrecking of tho train was indicated by Tom Firth, who said a coatlcss and halless man accosted hiin near Saugus ns he was returning o his home here from a Sunday automobile trip. The man toM Firth ho was a forest ranger nnd was In a hurry to get into Los Angeles to see ills daughter, who had been injured and was in the children's hospital. Firth said he took the man, who gave tho name of J lull, to the hospital, and was handed a $5 bill, pulled from a big roll the asserted ranger car ried In his pocket. Firth naid he became suspicious later, because the man described tho wreck in detail during the ride to tho city. No ranger by the name of Hall is listed in forestry department records.

For the management of the local Pox theatres has taken on an art ist and ho, as well as his head quarters Is utterly colorful In cos tume. Art is his first name also appropriately enough and .Mueller his family name. He is 22, tall and dark, and very sincere in his work. After talking with him and watch ing him work, it is no wonder that j uiilinilcua Hull caiib mo ujavmcu in the maze of color impressions one absorbs there. Art Mueller halls from Portland, where he attended Jefferson high and won tho admiration as well as tho deep regard of both faculty nnd student body for his contribu tions to the artistic demands' of that Institutions. Posters- wero his long suit, and ho turned them out for every ovent lmaginablo- Al'ter ho loft Jefferson ho at tended Neville Art school, where he indulged hlu fancies to his heart's content, and as a conse quence attracted the notico not only of his teachers but of outside commercial art critics. Ho was Invited on the staff of the Fox theatres in Portland, which, like other large companies, have discarded the old fashioned displays for poster work. It was through the Portland theatres that Manager nclsman secured tho serv ices of this clever 22-year-old boy. who will give Medford what all the larger cities are getting in the atre display work. He has already completed five or six sets of theatre posters for the two local houses, having .arrived In the city Just a few days ago. Ono of the first of them was the group of dainty follies girls stand ing against vivid backgrounds of color and enticing the crowds into the Craterlan offering for this week until tomorrow "The Hollywood Revue." ' ' - ' "Threo Line Ghosts," In anemic paster water colors pale lavender, yellow and green were thinly quivering on another poster out side tho Itialto theatre today. The story of the picture Is told In the press sheets the title and an artistic imagination. These are the threo sources from which the Portland boy conceives his ideas for posters. ' Sometimes it's Just tho mood ho catches while reading a press sheet, and his pictures are utterly impressionistic. ln Ills -little three-cornered, stu dio are some of the pieces brought from Portland Lon Chaney done In brown oils, a cop set over on one side of his head, and a cigar. ctte, the smoke of which drifts off Into a wierd form, held in one hand. Mr. Mueller prefers to work In oils when he isn't pressed for time, and he wiil use them often In his displays for tho Craterlan. he says. This theatre will feature principally the likeness of the stars in the features. The Itialto. where action pictures arc shown. Ilia story will be emphasized. Art Mueller likes Mcdford, and. having plenty of work here to keep him busy, ho hopes to stny a long, long time. HAWKS TO MARRY LOS. AMIKLUS, Nov. IS.
