(fP) Nine hundred and thirty three school children received perma nent immunity from diphtheria this week when inoculated with toxoid provided through cooperation between the east and health organization and school districts. would probably be returned here to night. Ralph E." Leighton. former chief of police here, whoobserved the position of the girl s body when It was discov ered, said he believed she had , been induced to crawl through the 16-ineh culvert to escape the cold wind of last Monday night. The fact that her clothing was not disarranged, as axithorities believed It would have been had she been thrust into the' culvert, was his ground for this belief. Then, he theorized, with her arms pinioned helplessly at her side and only her head protruding from, the narrow opening, her assaulant had crushed her head with a small rock and ended her life with his pistol. Find Death Weapon The rock, blood-stained, was found nenr the body. Van Vlack was removed from his cell In the county court house be tween Sheriff Prater and two other men. Fifteen or 20 persons watched the departure. Stepping briskly beside his gxiards. the prisoner, hatless and wearing a brown suit, turned and looked back toward the top of the court ho.ise. He was thrust into the sheriffs auto mobile, which dashed quickly around a corner and headed eastward at a rapid rate. Whether Van Vlack will be granted a preliminary hearing on the charge of murdering Patrolman Cooper ap peared doubtful today. Probate Judge Guy L. Kinney, before whom he was arraigned Wednesday, said he had the option of refusing a hearing in view of Van Vlack's waiver. Prisoner Told Rights The Judge said he explained to the defendant three times what his rights were, before he accepted the waiver of a hearing. E. V. Larson, who con ferred with the prisoner's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Carl Van Vlack of Tacoma, said he had advised them to request a preliminary hearing. Deputy Sheriff Henry C. Oivens. who was shot and seriously wounded when Cooper was slain, had & "bad night" last night, hospital attendants said today. His condition yesterday was reported considerably Improved.

E IN GUN DEATH OF ELK CREEK (Continued From Page One.) of money was found undisturbed in Hall's clothing. The puzzling features of the trag edy, center chiefly around the auto matic pistol. The shell was uncjected and the weapon cocked. Gun experts claim this type of pistol ejects the shell after firing. The pistol was laying on the table, at the left side of Hail. Nearby were cleaning rods, rags, and a can of oil. which were used in cleaning the weapon. Hall had been seated at a table against the wall, in a chair, at an angle. When the bullet struck. Hall slumped slightly forward In the chair and was held In a sitting pos ture, when his legs rested against & table leg. Hall's hands were lying across his lap, with hts head resting on the back of the chnir. The authorities claim the natural tendency would have been to throw his hands and arms limp by his side. They further hold it would have been phyMoally Impos sible for Hall to have placed the pistol in the position It was found after the bullet struck. The Jusllce court case, in which Hall charged Geary with assault and battery, is still pending. Geary was scheduled to appear in Justice court Tuesday afternoon, to present wit nesses in his lefense. The case was deferred ten days ago to permit Geary to assemble these witnesses. Hall Identified Geary as the man who hit him In the head, with a beer bottle, during an altercation near the Hall field. Friends and acquaintances of Geary say he bore Hall no 111 will, as a result of the charge. S. J. Hall of Portland, a. brother of the dead man. arrived today to attend to family matters in connection with the case. Hall had been a resident of this county for 30 years. He was a former forest ranger and had lived on Elk creek for the past 15 years. i r 1 if iH v! -vk- y ' FULL PINT Cod.
