MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUXE. MEDFORD, OREGON. THURSDAY, AUGUST 29, 1M3 PAGE SEVEN KEY 10 HISTORY OF CRATER LAKE Scientists Discover Many Old Vents in Tuff De positsSimilar to Famed Alaska 'Valley of Smokes' NET QUEENS RECEIVE LAURELS CRATER LAKE NATIONAL PARK, Ore. (Specull-eologlcal tudy In Crater Lane Notional Park baa Just . brought forth a new feature which may prove to be one of the moat Im portant keya In deciphering the his tory of Crater Lake. Raneer Naturalist Warren D. Smith, also professor of geology at the University of Oregon, and David T Griggs, geologist, of Harvard univer sity, announce the discovery of many old fumarole vents In the great tuff deposits which fill the valleys radiat ing from the rim of Crater lake. In recent years geologists have come to believe that these tuffs rep- i.. an1 shru7ra of lncandcs- cent ash and other fragmenta erupt ed from tne top 01 om o. ancestral mountain of Crater lake. h flowed down its val leys filling them to a depth of sev-I erai nunuicu That these flows were hot Is shown by the fact that In many places trees overwhelmed by this ma terial were found during the past two or three yeara turned into charcoal. Now It Is found that the top of these deposits Is apparently honeylcombe here and there with small conical caverns and tubular openings out of which steam and other gases issued. As the top of tlie gray tuff deposit Is hidden by a bed of pumice, 10 to 15 feet thick, they are not -easily seen except from within the rim of Wheeler Creek canyon In which the present discovery was made. Their position Is marked by a band of red dish tuff (due to oxidation) Just be neath the light pumice valley filling. It Is quite probable. Judging from the number of these fumaroles with in the small area studied that when .' the top of Mazama was destroyed, forming the gigantic crater now filled by Crater lake, these deposits were ' dotted with thoussnds of these smoking fumaroles. similar to the region In Alaska known as the Valley f Livestock PORTLAND.

Aug. 29 (AP) The treasury today reported Its iirat failure In history to sell an al lotted amount of unconditionally guaranteed securities. Only 85.592.000 of tenders were received for an offering of $100. 000.000 of four-year" 14 per cent bonds for the federal farm mortgage corporation. "It wasn't so good." commented Secretary Morgenthau, declining to discuss the possible causes. Other treasury officials) who would not be quoted by name, said the Issue was badly timed, coming in the middle of a bearish government market. KING AT WHEEL WHEN AUTO HITS ROADSIDE TREE (Continued from t-age One) off a country road and hit a tree. She died within live minutes in her king s arms and with his Hps on hers. The king was only slightly injured. The couple's chauffeur, who was rid ing In the rear seat while his master drove, suffered broken leg and pos sible internal Injuries. Physicians, said he might die. Attendants See Mishap Attendants who followed In another car said they saw their monarch turn his head for an instant, apparently admiring the mountain scenery, as he drove at a rate of between 50 and 55 miles an hour along the sunny road beside the lake called "Vler Waldstatter See." The touring car swung to the side of the road, hit an eight-inch curb, and rammed Into a, tree, then rolled Into the shallow lake just eight feet from the road. All three of the occupants were thrown out. The queen was thrown against an- other tree, fracturing her skull. The king's face was cut by the smashing windshield. Momentarily stunned, he picked himself up and went to the side of the Swedish princess he mar ried nearly nine years ago. Gives Dying Kiss Leopold held Astrid In his arms, kissed her again and again, and begged her to apeak to htm. She barely moved. It was Impossible to tell whether she recognized him. The cure of a village church Just outside Kussnacht came to them. He administered extreme unction. Then, as the king held her close, Aetrtd died. The king himself straightened her body and smoothed her clothes. The royal attendants, a gentleman -and-lady-ln-waltlng, and the chau feur of the car In which they had been riding, covered the still form with their coats. The accident occurred at 9:15 a. ra. King Injured The full extent of the king's In juries were not immediately deter mined. A physician said he feared Leopold's Jaw might be fractured. The doctor stated that, in any case the Jaw would account for the king's Inability to explain the cause of the accident himself. The 33-year-old king's grief over the death of his wife was such that none presumed to question him fur ther. Peasanta nearby Immediately tele phoned to Kussnacht for help. A doc tor arrived within five minutes after the queen had died. Leopold kissed the dead Astrid once more, then waa taken away In the doctor's car to have his wounds dressed- Afterward he waa taken to the Villa H al l horn to which the queen's body later was taken In an other car. After her king had gone. Astrld's body lay beside the fatal tree. Still covered with the coats, it was watched for a full hour by the bare headed members of the household, peasants, villagers and gendarmes. Then It waa removed by an under taker. Chauffeur May Die The chauffeur, originally reported as only slightly hurt In the craah, waa later found to be In a serious condi tion and physicians said they feared he might die. Kusnacht is a popular resort which stands at the head of a small bay of the lake "Vler Waldsatatter See," near the spot where the legendary William Tell waa reputed to have shot the tyrant Oeasler. At the villa the reception room waa cleared and the queen's body. In Its casket, was placed on black-draped trestles. Candles were arranged and the members of the household took up the death watch. The king, suffering not only emo tional shock but cuts and bruises, wss ordered by Dr. Steinegger, and physician who had rendered him first aid, to go to bed. Doctors found the chauffeur's legs were broken and that he was badly bruised, possibly internally. A further Investigation at the scene of the accident showed that a large stone at the roadside may have been t.h ran.. Whin the It in looked UD at the scenery, the car turned to the edge of the road, striking the stone, j It wss believed probable that the I Impact was so violent the occupants I were thrown out. , At the spot the road la only eight feet from the lake, and the car ran down a slight grade on the water.

It is timely to urge extra care in operating cars, extra caution in crossing streets and walking on high ways. September and December, each with five Sun days and a holiday, are likely to be the most dangerous months of the year, with October and November showing up nearly as badly. The record of last year was disastrous, for 954,000 persons were injured and 36,000 were killed. This year's record is nearly as bad so far. Drive carefully. Walk cautiously. Take time to be safe. k minute saved at the cost of a life is no bargain.
