OWNEY KNEW OLD TIME BALL PLAYER When the "old timers" of the base ball game played In Grants Pass and Portland, there was one old timer" right here at home, who longed to be allowing Sam Crawford of Detroit how it is done, just as he did once 47 years ago. His name Is Owney Patton (for the benefit of those who didn't know It). When Sam Crawford was playing with the Detroit' champions, Owney Patton was captain of the Minneapo lis team and Owney's team won. If it hadn't. Owney wouldn't be telling the story today, he assured his lis teners, gathered on North central this morning. He's Irish enough for that. But defeated or victorious, he wanted to see his old cronies when they got as close as Grants Pass, and it still takes extra effort to coax a smile out of him, all because he didn't. He admitted it this morn ing. That's why his pipe is hanging low. PURSE EMPTIED; GYPSY BLAMED She blessed his purse, and on she went, and he is minus $10 just the same old gypsy story. It was re enacted hers this morning at Mann's wrecking house, A business caller at the wrecking house, whose name was not revealed by police, was approached by the gypsy maiden. She asked to tell his fortune. He let her. She didn't tell him he was going to lose some money in the near future. But when she departed his "blessed" purse was empty. Police officers were searching thru the valley this morning for the gypsy band, but a check with Ashland failed to reveal their whereabouts although they were headed south when they left the wrecking station. There were four gypsies in the Oak land roadster, which stopped at the station, and other cars were seen go- ? ing by. occupied by members of the j Romany clan. The common drinking glass has been restored and the paper cup dis carded in many Kentucky statehouse offices as a result of an economy drive. End.

Bkipworth later or dered adjournment until 1:30 p. m today to allow the prosecution to re organise itself. Moody Takes Helm. With this in view, Ralph Moody of Medford, former assistant United States attorney general, was hurriedly sworn In last sight as special assist' ant state attorney general to assume charge of the case for the state. Moody had already identified himself with the prosecution at the request of Levens, long a friend of his, and he was Questioning prospective Jurors yesterday when word was received that Levens had died in a doctor's office nearby. The Jury, completed late yesterday, remained locked up today pending re sumptlon of the trial. Judge Skip worth in ordering them locked up last night, indicated that procedure would be followed until the trial is over. Co-operatives Factor. Deserting temporarily its line of questioning of prospective jurors in accordance with Its theory that Banks was "persecuted to a point of des peration,' and was in an overwrought frame of mind when Constable Pres cott was shot, the defense yesterday sought the views of the pane on co operative farm projects and market ing. While editing a Medford paper, B&nkfi had made a vigorous fight against such farm enterprises. The state confined its questions largely as to the jurors' prejudices and the assurance the state as well as the de fense would fee given a faiT hearing Moody Authorized, Assistant State Attorney General J, M. Devers. whose work is largely confined to the state highway com mission, came here from Bslem last night with the papers authorising Moody to carry on the work started by Levens Moody was assistant United States attorney general under the Harding and Coohdge administrations, and is considered one of the most colorful attorneys In this state. Assisting him with the prosecution are George Cod ding, district attorney of Jackson county, and Deputy District Attorney Nteison, also of Medford.
