3 PAGE SIX MEDFORD MAIL TRIBTTXE, BEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, AUGUST SO, 1935. NUDISTS' BATTLE AGAINST PEEKING ' EATS 20 POUNDS AT ONE MEAL! I, IS FLOP Scribes, Sob Sisters and Photographers Spoil Court Tussle Ribald Crowd Runs Nudes to Cover B Pan Roj;ers United Press Staff Correspondent NETCONO. N. J., Aug. 30. (UP) The much ballyhooed court tusslfl be tween modest farmer Will Sear lea and his brazen nudist neighbors flopped tcdoy to the great disappointment of a thousand rustics and summer visit ors. Tha burning Issue of whether Searlea can peclc over his couth pas ture fence at naked men and women at play still was unsettled. And the date and place of the next round In the nudist's battle to wear their birthday suits without rubberneck In terference was as little understood as Einstein's theory of relativity. The onrey gentlemen of the press reinforced by sob sisters and photog raphers, were the cause of It all. The bashful, blushing nudists, although fully clothed for the scheduled trial of the farmer for Insulting them acrose his fence. Insisted the pre.w and public being barred from the proceedings. Court Cleared Justice of the Peace Lewis (Jedge Luke) Hcyler, In customary garb of shirtsleeves, suspenders and wrinkled pants, therefore ordered from the vol unteer firemen's clubroom, his tem porary courtroom, all except the prin cipals, witnesses and lawyers. The score of nudists present, mem bers of the Central Health Institute, smiled In relief. But they reckoned without Mayor Tom Koclas, town confectioner and iricnd or the peoplo He tartly Informed Judge Luke that If firemen couldn t stay in tuelr own clubroom, the Justice end all his troop could get out. Judge Luke adjourned court to a little room behind the fire engines and prepared to proceed when the doughty mayor delivered a flat ulti matum thot the public would be ad mitted to the trial or there wouldn't be any trial. With the quavering. bewlUlered an nouncement that he didn't know when or where the hearing would be resumed, the Justice capitulated, Too Hot for Nn (lists Then things got hot for the nud ists. The rlbnld crowd caught the au natural advocates like treed possums, laughing and hurling vague Insults as it closed In. The nudists huddled together, cov ering their faces with newspapers. Finally police opened a lane through the crowd nnd Leslie Bain, owner of the nudist camp, and his bashful cli ents dnshed across the street to the sanctuary of their attorney's office, T ain't got nothln' to conceal. I'll flpht this thing till hell freezes over and then I'll be flghtln' on the Ice. Why those people were hartRln' over my fenoe with their bare naked bod ies." Judge Unimpressed Judge Luke, who refused to put on his Sunday suit In spit of the fact he was awakened today by airplanes buzzing over his hoiio. bearing city photographers to take his picture and reporters to hang on his every word, opined that all the commotion would result In New Jersey laws banning nudists, similar to those In New York. "But for the present there's noth ing In New Jersey laws to keep men and women from going naked on their own land," he eald. fineries, his wire and four children tagging proudly behind him, repeated an invitation to all who wanted to come to attend a clam bake and peek ing party at his farm next Sunday, with an unobstructed view of the nudists' camp guaranteed all free.
