The stats of Oregon today had

or more of defendants to face a Jury.

Deputy District Attorney George
W. Nellson leaves today for Klamath
Falls. Joining Assistant Attorney

George F. Sklpworth, who will pre
side, Is also on the grocnd.
Stage All Ret
The stage Is all set for the start
of the case, Monday morning, barring
legal moves' by the defense, which
re not considered likely.
Selection of a Jury Is expected to
be short, as scores of Klamath county
people have never heard of the bal
lot theft cases, and have no opinions
or Interest. The Jury list has been
ordered to report Monday morning at
0:80 o'clock.
- First of the state witnesses have
been ordered to report Monday after
noon. These Include the Sexton
brothers, Wesley McKItrlck. Virgil
Kdlngton, and others who have
pleaded guilty to participation In the
vote stealing, other state witnesses
will be B. A, Flumlng, Earl Bryant,
and James D. Gaddy, who admit a
role In the crime.
New Witnesses
The state Is expected to call to the
stand a number of witnesses who
have not testified In the previous
ballot-theft trials.
The trial Is expected to last the
better part of two weeks.
All the remaining ballot theft
trials have been moved to Klamath
county. Tom L. Brecheen of Ash
land, mentioned In the testimony to
date, as a busy worked around the
courthouse on the night of February,
conferring, directing, and guarding.
Is scheduled to go on trial following
the Fehl case.
Brecheen Is the "forgotten man"
. of the turmoil. Arrested on Febru
ary 35, unlike all the rest, bonds
have never been provided for him.
and his calling list has been limited
to a few "congressmen." There has
been spasmodlo but unsuccessful ef
fort to secure his release.
Here Two Years
Brecheen has been a resident of
the valley for about two years, com
ing here from Alameda county, Cali
fornia, and locating at Ashland,
where he Immediately became an ac
tive political worker, and secured
campaign In the south end of the
registrations In the. 103a primary
county.
Last January Brecheen became one
of the socalled "courthouse pets,"
atlng many of his meals, and sleep
ing there. When I. A. Banks, former
local agitator and convicted slayer,
organlwd the self-styled "Good Gov
ernment congress," Brecheen en
rolled and was the "story-teller" of
the conclaves and assemblies. It was
Brecheen's Job to "make 'em laugh,"
and his platform appearances were
never msrked by fiery orations and
wild charges.
A Friend of r. R.
Re claimed to be "a personal friend
of President Roosevelt of 3S years
standing." When a "congresswoman"
doubted the claim, Brecheen dared
her to send a telegram to Washing
ton, D. 0., which was done at county
expense, It Is said. This was about
the time other "congress" leaders
were alleging Intimate acquaintance
with chief Justices, senators and cab
inet officials, to impress the rank
and file.
Following Brecheen, the Indict
ments against J. Oroft, "the man in
the horae-halr cost." Oliver Martin,
former Klamath county resident, and
Claude Ward, brother-in-law of
Banks will be aired. All enacted
minor roles on the night of the vote
stealing, as guarda and messengers,
the state allege, and were around
and about the courthouse.
Visits the Whltelaws Mrs. Archie
Becker of Minneapolis, Minn., arrived
In Mod ford today on the Shasta to
be the guest over the week-end of
Mr. and Mrs. w. A. Whltelaw. Mrs.
Becker visited here last summer also.

Cars In fleml-Clrcles
In place of the conventional thea
ter layout, there are seven tiers of
parking Inclines so srrsnged In a
seml-clrcle that each row will ac
commodate several dossil cars.
The rows are M feet wide, leaving
plenty of space for parking and at
the same time giving room for ar
riving and Incoming cars to find or
leave a "seat" without disturbing
anyone.
Screen Is Huge
The front row is not necessarily
batter thsn any other position In the
theater, for there Is a huge screen
and adequate sound equipment. En
gineers designed apparatus that would
give enough volume to cover the huge
arena and to make It possible to heir
above noises made by motors.
Three huge loudspeakers concealed
behind the 80-foot screen project the
sound evenly throughout the enclos
ure. On one occasion during an electric
al and rain storm the show went right

Jtmmle Mattera. luckless round-the-world
filer, offered late "last night to
do "anything he could" to aid Wiley
Post, when he heard that Post had
dlsablrd his plane In landing at Plat,
Alaskan, after being "lost" seven
hours.
"I'm sure sorry to ihear he suf
fered such a misfortune," Mattern
said.
"If there's anything I can da-III
put forth every effort to help him get
going again, .so that he can break
the round-the-world record."
Offers Post Help
During the afternoon, Mattern had
arrived from Anadyr, Siberia, In
Soviet seaplane, to be greeted by his
relief expedition. In a plans flown
by Pilot Levanosvky, the flight was
made here from Asia, arriving at 1:10
p. to. (7:10 p. m. E. 8. T.) Mat
tern had crashed on June 14, near
Anadyr.
"If Post's plans Is out of commis
sion," Mattern said, "I'll offer him
the ship flown by my relief expedi
tion." MAttsrn described his flight from
Anadyr In the Soviet plane as filled
with thrills, relating how .they had
been stranded on a reef In the Ana
dyr river, that they wade a number
of attempts before being able to get
off the bay at Anadyr, that they had
to return to 8t. Lawrence Island sf
ter once passing that point, and that
finally they ran out of gas as they
finally neared the Alaskan shore.
Climax of Thrills
"I tnougbt my flight from New
Tork to where my plane crashed was
full of thrills," he ssid, "but this
last flight had them all stopped."
The start was made on Wednesday,
be said, but landing bad to be made
on St. Lawrence Island and they
spent the night there In their sleep
ing osgs, "Just like Eskimos."
After running out of gss as they
neared the Alaskan coast, a tugboat
found them and towed them Into
Nome harbor, he aald.
There Is one thing I will say about
my stay at Anadyr," Mattern said,
"and tAat Is that the Russians cer
tainly took wonderful care of me
and I wish at this time to thank the
entire crew of the Russian plane for
their efforts In coming up Into the
Arctic from Khabarovsk to bring me
over to Nome." ' '
saved Few Parts

Anadyr at which his plane crashed.
Mattern said, he only brought out
with him bis Instrument psnel. tfte
propeller and the motor, with the
aid of Russians. Be brought them
with him to Nome in the Russian
plane.
"My plane, when, I crashed, was
stranded so far away from the beach
that I gave up any bops of getting .
It out.
"During my flight they acted con
fident and showed the utmost oour
age In the face of the gas shortage
and the possibility that we might
have tc set down in the sea and
await rescue, which luckily didn't
hsppen.
"They are all fine young upright
citizens of Soviet Russia, and as far
as the flying gams goes, they're Just
some of the boys and real pilots."
Mattern and his Russian rescuers
