Experiences Earthquake To folk
who say what Los Angeles needs is
"not a new deal, but a new shuffle,"
Miss Velma Showers wants to say
"time's been too much shuffle al
ready " She was In the southern
city for her vacation at tone time of
the earthquake, and according to a
letter received by her parents here,
didn't exactly like the sensation.
"The building began to rock from
side to side,'1 she writes from San
Fran leoo. "I rushed toward the
street with the crowd. Things were
falling everywhere. The glass fell out
of nearly every window from top to
bottom of the largest ones. Electric
signs and everything else that could
be shook loose, fell." After all these
things had happened and she had
slept In her clothes for three nights,
Miss Showers decided it would be ft
good Idea to leave southern Califor
nia and start homeward.
In the national cnamp.onmps at nimna.
One by one the favorites fell by
the wayside, mowed down by the
girls from the Red River territory of
southern Oklahoma. As they pro
gressed through the tournament,
however, their prowess was comment
ed upon In terms of grace and chirm,
not rough-and-ready basketbaU.
There was not a player on the
team who stood out from the others.
None of them was famous like Dld
rlksoii of the Cyclon1.
Ooach S. P. Babb had assembled
the nucleus of the Cardinal sextet
only at the start of the season. He
developed team play to a high de
cree at a sacrifice ot personal glory.
The result was a smoothly operating
organization that furnished the sur
prises of the 1933 national tourna
ment. Ouch! Practice at 5 A. M.
To be a member of the team, a

BAD EGGS SOLD
IS
OFFICIAL CLAIM
PORTLAND. Ore., Mar. 22 (AP)
Concerted action was expected soon
by city officials against the sale of
undergrade eggs of such poor quality
as to really make them unfit for
food.
Recent free offering In this mar
ket of a very considerable supply of
undergrade eggs that were so poor
that they could not be sold elsewhere
has created, a very poor undertone In
the trade generally.
Undergrade eggs were being sold on
the bargain counter but considering
ing at all, according to some leaders
tneir actual grade, were worth noth
ing of the trade.
With churning . operations little
changed, and off In spots, the mar
ket for butter was steady here. Many
In the trade were complaining of the
unfair prices named on the produce
exchange.
Local killers were bringing In addi
tional liberal lots of broiler fowls
from the Winlock, Wash., territory
and current needs were being taken
care of. Local fowls of all sorts were
scarce.
Trading In the turkey market Is
now of nominal volume; late receipts
being very limited. In fact there was
Insufficient top stuff now arriving
to firmly establish values.
First strawberries of the season
came from Florida to the Pacific
Fruit. The shipment consisted of a
single chest, the bulk of the supply
being for an Oriental liner. Best sold
40c pint box. .
Trifle weaker tone was reflected
for country killed calves. Hogs were
holding at least steady as were sheep
and lambs. Spring lambs were slow
In arriving.

GIF! OF MINE BY
EASTERNER AGOG
W. O. Dunn of Clarlnda, Iowa, who
Is wondering whether or not he owns
a gold mine near Medford, according
to an Associated Press dispatch from
that city, might just as well quit
wondering, say mining men here,
who know the evangel 1st -miner, who
gave him one.
Dunn, according to the story, re
ceived the mine In payment for an
automobile ride he gave a hitch
hlger. The man represented himself
as an evangelist miner, owning 30
mines near Medford.
The trip completed he gave the
Clarlnda man, what he claimed was
a deed to a mine and disappeared. '
Mining men Interviewed here said
the evangelist has about 30 signs at
tached to stakes and trees In the
Wagner creek country. They are
about 100 feet apart and represent
nothing more and nothing less than
signs. The evangelist, who frequent
ly preached In the city park and on
street corners of Medford a year or
so ago, never proved up on a mine
and never staked or recorded one.
Miners here further described the
evangelist today as "one of the big
gest rascals that ever struck Med
ford." JIMMY WALKERSWILL

AIR-TIGHT CASE
AGAINST BANKS
POLJCEBELIEVE
(Continued from Page One)
a rush of followers to his house fol
lowing the killing.
Urged "Congress" Meet
The evening previous he Issued his
weekly paper. In which he attacked
the state police, and belittled the ex
pected indictments for ballot rob
bery. The sheet also urged that all
'Good Government Congress mem
bers be present at the trial of Hen
rietta B. Martin, the morning of the
murder. In accordance with this
plea, the courthouse corridors were
crowded. At the time. It had been
announced, published and broadcast,
that the trial of Mrs. Martin would
not be held until after the pressure
of business In the district attorney's
office had slackened.
Mpny rushed to the Banks home
when the murder became known, but
the horror of it caused most of his
followers to express revulsion, and
denounce him bitterly. They left for
their homes and many realized they
had been made dupes by a crafty and
cunning disturber.
The state also has the names of
visitors to the Banks home for three
or four evenings before the killing.
Six or eight cars were parked at the
home on these occasions.
Wants Outside Lawyer
The authorities reported that Mrs.
Banks was making an effort to secure
a Portland or San Francisco lawyer
to defend them. Mrs. Banks Monday
sent a telegram to an acquaintance
in Salem, asking that he recommend
an attorney. Attorneys Rnrlght of
this city, and H. Von Schmalz of
Burns, have been representing the
pair to date.
So far the brothers of Banks, and
relatives of his wife, In California
have not come forward with legal
aid, according to officials. One of
his brothers lives In Oakland, Calif.,
the other in Los Angeles, Banks
claimed both were millionaires. The
authorities report they are substan
tial, law-abiding citizens of moderate
mean, and highly respected In their
communities.
Of the three held on Informations
charging first degree murder, E. A.
Fleming of Jacksonville alone has
shown signs of sorrow, and a deep
realisation of the seriousness of the
crime he faces. Fleming's family
vainly used every means In their
power to Induce him to cease rela
tions with Banks. When Fleming
signed the first bond for Banks, on
a criminal libel indictment, relatives
notified the court that his surety
was invalid, aa no property was in
hia name.
The home of L. A. Banks, scene f
the murder of Constable George J.
Prescott last Thursday, and held un
der a coroner's guard since then, was
formally turned back to Mrs. Edith
R. Banks late yesterday. The home
was placed under guard for the safe
keeping of evidence.
The home Is under a mortgage for
94500. for which the Medford Na
tional bank recently filed suit for
foreclosure.
A petition for the guardianship of
Ruth Mae Banks, 12, daughter of
the accused pair, was filed March 14.
The document was first filed the
Saturday before the bank holiday was
called, and Its filing was delayed
Mrs. Edith R. Banks is named guar
dian
Tlie bonds were ordered corrected
this morning In an order signed by
the probate court. 3ome slight legal
inadvertence existed.
Mrs. Banks Is still confined In the
county jail without bonds. She re
quealed to be taken to the house,
and It was denied.
