During the flight he suf fered such a loss of blood that he was rushed to Medford for treatment, but was returned to his home yes terday. The Morgan oar, which was demol ished In the crash, was hurled into the air and turned a complete flip flop before hitting the ground. It was reported. Neither driver had seen the other car approaching be cause of defective lights, it was stated at Sams Valley. Mrs. Morgan, who was not believed seriously injured at the time, was not brought to the hispltal here un til yesterday, when examination showed that her hip bones and pelvis were badly crushed.

CONGER FUNERAL PARLOR WEST MAIN AT NEWTOWN Solicited For Membership In Order of Golden Rule and Declined Rialto Star With Bebe Daniels heading the sup porting cast, which also includes Doris Kcnyon, Onslow Stevens, Thelma Todd and many other famous film players, "Counsellor at Law" starring John Barrymore, opens at the Rialto the ater. Tnken from the stage play of the same name by Elmer Rice, "Counsellor at Law" concerns a crisis In the life of one of the greatest criminal law yers in New York City, and covers a period of tUree days. Scandals Scoring Hit At Craterian Done In the spirit of a Broadway show, but encompassing many points which the wider range of the screen permits, "George White's Scandals," at the Craterian Theater, marks the first of a new type of musical in that It starts right out with the complete show and forgets all about the 'build up rehearsals, etc. And the result is a much faster, more enjoyable mu sical entertainment than any musical show we've had here for a long time. A trifle racy In spots, vivid in song, gags, comedy situations and spectacle, the Scandals la full of the atmosphere that the title suggests. Like a legiti mate revue, It's a parade of 16 or 20 sketches, all of which are held to gether by ti slight story plot. It de votes itself exclusively to the preser vation of the peculiar color, glamour and entertainment associated with George White's stage extravagances. It sings and dances throughout, in terspersing specialty sequences and, flashing back every now and then to accepted picture - making formula, quickly picks up and drops the story premise.

Verne Shangle, chairman of the pioneer parade? to be a leading fea ture of Oregon's Diamond Jubilee here In June, motored to Yreka, Cal., this afternoon to contact the inter ested people of that locality, regard ing their entries to be made In the parade.

Blurts TOMORROW CHARLES LAUGHTON In "WHITE WOMAN" PARADE CHAIRMAN LAST TIMES TONITB ROGUES WIN 4-0 G. Behind the stellar pitching of Cliff McLean, Hal Halght's Medford Rogues defeated Grants Pass yesterday at the Josephine county fair grounds, 4-0, In the opening game for both teams. The Indian hurler struck out ten and allowed but five hits, all singles. Earhart. a tall left hander, worked the first five Innings for Grants Pass, and whiffed 13, but bunched Rogue hits in the fourth and fifth ac counted for four runs and the ball game. Nelson, who had a tryout with Portland this spring, took over the pitching duties in the sixth and held the Rogues scoreless for the re mainder of the game. It was a bristling game through out, both teams playing bang-up ball. An error, a double steal and a sin gle combined to give Medford two runs in the fourth. With one away, Swanson walked and McLean reached first on Wat hamer's error. Swanson going to third. Swanson then scored and McLean went to second on a double steal. Manager Hnlght singled hotly to right counting McLean. In the fifth, Hulen walked and after Hoffnrd and Smith struck out, Swanson singled Infield, advancing Hulen to second: McLean then blast ed a triple to left. That ended the day's scoring. McLean kept the Grants Pass hits well scattered. Ho was in hot water but once; that in the seventh frame when an error, walk and single filled the bases with one gone. A double play. Hulen to Haight to Courtney, pulled him out of the hole, however, and from then on he breezed in. A sparse crowd was out to see the opener, but they were treated to a real ball game.

Communications No Red Peril, To the Editor: Your editorial in last Tuesday's paper, "No Red Peril Here." compels me to make comment. It shows that our editor is fully aware of what 'is apt to happen. You say the bourgeoisie Is the ma Jorlty class in our country. This is a hard thing to pove. Reports differ so, first we are told by those who oppose an income tax that there are no Incomes nor any rich men left. Yot our government is borrowing bil lions of dollars from somebody. The bourgeoisie of today may be the pau pers of tomorrow. I think by the time we repay all our borrowed money with Interest the proletariat will con stitute the majority class, even If they do not now. The Inability of a lot of them to pay their property tax Indicates that they are already slipping. It was not the Intention of the founders of our country that It should be ruled by any class In particular, but by the wish of the majority. This question Is simply and correctly solv ed by the right of unlimited fran chise. It is self evident that Fascism la not the will of the majority since the right of franchise Is denied. The failure of the New Deal, which so far lacks a redeeming feature, would make Socialism Inevitable If left to the will of the people. Hence the threat of Fascism, with the sup pression of universal franchise and the freedom of speech which was bought so dearly by our forefathers, The left wing radicals have long de clared that when the showdown ar rived that is what would be done. Which Is why the ballot with them Is not held in high regard and direct action Is considered the only effec tive means, for which they are se verely criticized. This proves the old saying, "Revolutions are never bloody unless the ruling class makes them so." It is not my purpose to recommend for this country the Russian form of government. If our constitutional rights are not Interfered with the American people can solve our prob lems satisfactorily with our present system of representation. Reports re' gardlng the Soviet form of govern ment are so conflicting that I doubt If the average person has a very clear Idea Just what It Is like. But we do know this much, that their ultimate aim is to create a society where no Evening, nt 8:43-0:00 TOMORROW!

(AP) Willis Ma honey of Klamath Palls, democrat, and Charles Hall, Portland, republi can, today filed for the nomination of their parties for governor. Mahoney was the first democrat to file while Hall added his name to Sam H. Brown for the republican nomination. Mahoney'a slogan on the ballot after his name will read: "A new deal for the masses.
