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. ' -' ,

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

band's trip to the national conven
tion of the Elks in Los Angeles next
summer.
Pointing out that the band la
