'S EASY TO CRACK Those Interested In becoming .n. meshed in the toils of the lVw An geles ponce, enforcing the bum's blockade at Hornbrook, just over the vreson une, win ha,ve to look more like bums, according to the story of a Portland newspaper reporter, which has not yet been published. The story, has been pieced together from reports turned in by various Medford people. During the week a oar. wobbling along on leaky tires, crawled south out of the. city for the California line. The vehicle had 'Just stopped at a Medford garsge to be "depatred." Old tires were mounted on the wheels, the upholstery wis bul.led around, the lights were Jim mied. ' , A It creaked out of the city, the Portland reporter rubbed his grimed and whiskery chin, a light of antici pation In his eye, the stories agree. His plan was to approach the block ado in his dilapidated condition, pose a an "indigent," and. be pieked up by the patrol, to get first-hand in formation on the blockade for his sheet. Approaching the patrol with a hang dog look in his eye, the report has it, the scrivener was prepared to be stopped, bawled out, possibly drub bed, and turned back north. How- ever, th Los Angelee constabulary looked him over with only a casual glance, sniffed In disdain, and paid no further attention to him! He Is said to have bung around Hornbrok for some time, watting to be picked up and heaved Into the city kUnk, but still ha waa magnifi cently ignored. Finally, he decided, the rumor has It, that he had been misinformed as to the local of the blockade, and wheesed and clattered on south to Y relet. - In that village he pulled to a halt and still no one bothered him. Abandoning his ahabby car, he elect ed to force the Issue, and started out to "stem 'on the streets of the little mining town. Begging brought him only rebuffs from citizens, no money, and not a squeak out of the police. A few hours of this pastime and he grew hungry, and unable to beg food, conferred with himself and. decided to fork down through hta rags and rescue the money hidden there. Armed with the coin of the realm, one thing It la generally agreed that Californlanj recognize, the scribe sid led Into first one store and then an other in an effort to purchase some "punk" (bread), or other fare, with no success whatever. The merchants of the city, recognizing him as a bum. if none of the oops had, advised him to move on, that they had nothing to offer him, and didn't want his trade. ' Stunned by this rebuff, the reporter disappeared, and to date no further attempts of his to penetrate the blockade have been noted by the Mall Tribunes informant. : , Before he gave up the attempt to 'make the can," the Portland writer, In desperation. Inquired of citizens and police alike as to the proper method of getting arrested. He was Informed that' the best way was to arrive by freight, but that that meth od was not to be trusted, either. A local police oflcer, who prefers to remain unknown, last week counted the bums infesting a aide-door pull man as It chugged south out of Hilt. There were 37 "btndle stiffs" dang ling their worn shoes over the edge of the car-tops (riding rods la a thing of the past since freight cars don't have them any more), but when the train pulled into Hornbrook, only 20 of the wanderers were atlll perched In their places. The assumption Is that the 17 dropped off the train be fore coming to the "City Limits of Los Angeles," walked around the block ade, remounted and continued their Interrupted Journey toward the warm southern California sun. The Los Angeles cops can't be so smart, after all. ' -' , OPENDRlVEFOR ELKS BAND FUND Fifty members of Medford Elks lodge attended a dinner at Valen tine's cafe last evening for the "kick off" of a money raising campaign which will reoutflt the Elks band and aid In defraying expenses of the band's trip to the national conven tion of the Elks in Los Angeles next summer.
