Starting at 7 o'clock In the morn
ing, some 60.000 folk (lied past the
body, lilng in state In a grove of
trees at Forest Lawn. An even great-
number failed to gain entrance.
The body lay for five hours and a
cordon of police moved the crowd as
fast as possible.
But there wasn't enough time.
In the afternoon, while fewer than
300 Invited guests went to the prl
vate services at the Wee Kirk o' the
Heather, 10.000 gathered at the Hol
lywood bowl, and an unnumbered
host assembled in the movie studios,
and the Community Presbyterian
church, In Beverly Hllla.
Mountain nf Flowers
At the chapei a mountain of flow
ers was massed, the wreaths, figures,
bouquets, and funeral pieces coming
from all over the country. The entire
lawn, outside, stretching down the
whole side of the hill, was blanketed
with them.
More typical of Rogers were the
songs sung In his memory.
At the private services, John Boles,
film actor, sang the cow boy -philosopher's
favorite, "Old Faithful''; at one
studio. James Melton, radio star, sang
"Home on the Range"; at another, Joe
Morrison, actor singer, "The Last
Roundup." and at still another, Nino
Martini, celerated opera singer, "Ag
nus Del."
Bolea' voice, strong at first, wa
vered twice aa he sang behind the
screen of flowers at the chapel.
Pastor Affected
The Rev. J. Whltcomb Broughter,
former pastor of Tremont Temple
Baptist church, Boston, and Temple
Baptist, Los Angeles, seemed deeply
affected as he led the service at the
Wee Kirk of the Heather, describing
Rogers, aa he had known him.
"He haa been the one figure in the
life of our nation who haa drawn to
himself the admiration and the love
of all classes of people," Dr. Brouglier
said.
The clergyman then read Will Rog
era' own introduction to a book, writ
ten by the cow boy -artist, Charley
Russell. Russell, Dr. Brougher said,
had dtea before It was finished, and
I Rogers wrote the Introduction In the
form of a personal letter to his friend
i In the next world.
' 'I guess Ood needed a good man
In a hurry," " Dr. Brougher read. Then
his vloce broke, and tears welled Into
his eyes.
His audience represented a wide
croes-sectlnn of American Itfe.
Old KrlendH Present
The government of the United
States, the army and the navy, the i
business wold, the film Industry all
were there. Postmaster General Jbb.

Tells of Grares.
Last night. In the presence of a
group of newspaper reporters, he
supplied specific directions which, he
claimed, would lead to the burlaj
grounds of J. J. (Radium) Johnson,
snother prospector, and Fred Reel
ing or drtllng, a mine caretaker.
He told the newspaper men that
when they had located the bodies
of these two men to return to his
cell and he would give them direc
tions which would lead them to the
burisl spots of 33 other men he hsd
killed In his two yeara In the moun
tains. Startling as his story was snd
doubtfully as It was received by of
ficers and reporters alike, Sherlfl
Elmer H. Oum, organizing the posse,
pointed that Kimball already had
provided the Information which had
solved two killings and that "any
thing la possible."
Kennett, ao Kimball related, was
killed the latter part of June In a
quarrel over food and the youth was
slain for his asserted attempt to
steal Kimball's small rifle.
Admits Slaying..
The story of the other asserted
killings poured from the talkative
but calm prisoner after a newspaper
reporter had asked him If he knew
what had happened to Reeling or
Orlllng. who disappeared last No
vember. Stoically. Kimball replied he
had killed the man last fall for giv
ing hla dog away.
This was followed by the assertion
that he killed Johnson six weeks
sgo because the older prospector ac
cused him of slaughtering a steer.
He claimed he bodies of Johnson
and Reallng or Orlllng were burled
not far from the deserted mining
camp, where Kennett and the youth
were slain.
Of the others who, he said, died
by hla hand, he Identified one as
"Brown," another aa "Eddie," a CCC
worker In nearby Onion valley, and
Jefferson Baughman, a rancher mys
teriously slain In December, 1933.
Gruesome aa the tale was. Kimball
told It quickly to reporters. Officers
were not present at the time. He
checked back over detalla prevlocsly
related with surprising accuracy and
Insisted with considerable stubborn
ness taiat the almost unbelievable
tale of wholesale murder was true
and would be proved If "directions
are followed."

the crop this year shows promise of
being a fine one.
The Rogue River Valley Canning

gun work on tomatoes, but expects
to do so In the near future.
The Knight Packing company here

waa closed today, but planned on

ing to J. H. Zlmmer, manager of the
plant ,the 193S crop looks good, and
with continued weather of the kind
that haa prevailed so far this year,
he looks for a splendid yield. Any
extremely hot weather now, however,
will do untold damage to the to
matoes; he said.
The Knight plant will continue to
run, putting up whole tomatoea, mak-
heavy frosts, or until the first heavy ,
rain, Zlmmer stated.
