HIGH WATER HINDERS Although the trout season has been open over a week, anglers of Jackson county are still marking time for a decrease Jn high waters in streams and river. By the number of catches reported the past week it appears the season la open In name only and little hope Is held by nlmrods for improved conditions this week-end. The state police report the Rogue river Is falling but that It will still be too high. The water between Sav age Rapids and the confluence of the Applegate Is about the right color for salmon, but apparently the big run hasn't started. WHAT A WRECK ' CONSTIPATION MAKES Constipation can dull your whole life. Headaches, poor complexions tired, lifeless days are often the results. Also, many serious diseases. Get Tid of common constipation now with a ready-to-eat cereal Kellogg's All-Bran. All-Bran brings you the two things your system needs to act naturally: "bulk" and vitamin B to help tone the intestines. Within the body, All-Bran ab sorbs more, than twice ita weight Jn water forms a soft mass, and gently clears the intestines of wastes. It acts naturally. Pills and drugs seldom cure con stipation. You just keep on in creasing the dose and switching from one laxative to another. Just eat two tablespoonfuls of Kellogg's All-Bran every day, three times daily if needed. Serve as a cereal with milk or cream, or use in recipes. Sold by all grocers made and guaranteed by Kel logg in Battle Creek.

DEFENDANTS DENY PATIENT Sport Graphs Billy Hulen Says; Dick Skeeters, Talent's Entry For Mound Fame fleet of trucks. Even After hi placing dayi were over. Charlie kept In floe touch with the na tional pastime. Four years at;o he manafTd a club In Talent that kniM-keil over everything In this territory and Kwt a two-out-of -three game series with the Scha?pa team of Portland for the &emI-pro championship of Oregon. Some Southern Oregon league ball team Is going to get smart and grab off a young high school pitcher by the name of Dick Skeeters, at present doing a pretty fair country job of hurling Talent high school to the county class B league pennant. At the insistence of his coach. Linn Mills, who has been whooping it up around this office for the past month and even tracking up down to our domicile to expound at great length on the "curve ball tut crooked as a pretzel" and the "high hard one that looks like an aspirin tablet when it reaches the plate." we finally weakened and Journeyed out to the Talent ball pasture Tuesday with WMly Rlckert and his St. Man's high outfit. Snter a new sports magazine Into the fate&t growing field of them all. We can remember not many years back when Street and Smiths Sport Story was the lone publication de voted exclusively to sports.

E BY M PORTLAND FIRES PORTLAND, April 23 (AP) Two Portland fires, one a spectacular blaze In the downtown district and the other at a shingle mill Just out side the city limits, brought damage of more than (20.000 today. Flames starting In the community kitchen of a Second avenue building housing part of Portland's Chine colony injured two firemen and caused a loss estimated between $15, 0OO and $20,000. A blew virtually razed the Union Avenue Shingle company early this morning. Loss was tentatively set at "several thousand." The defense opened late yesterday and was expected to be concluded late today in the damage suit of Mrs. Jeanne R. Woods against Dr. Harvey E. Miller and his assistant, Mrs. Louise Bates.

She alleges she was burned on the abdomen by an electrical pad and that her outcries went unheeded.

Four local physicians were called by the plaintiff yesterday to give expert testimony. Dr. Miller and his attendant test ified In their own behalf yesterday and denied allegations of the com plaint.

Hop Men Name Agent SALEM, April 23. (AP) Seventy five Oregon hop growers elected W. H. Anderson of Eugene permanent grower-director to represent the state in the Pacific Coast Hop Stabilization corporation. VJ millions of good cooks have learned that it is really an economy to insist on the shortening that is always pure, always fresh, always creamy . . . SNOWDRIFT WALLA WALLA, April 23. ( AP) Holding to a murder theory, sheriff's officers sought clues today to the Identity of the person who killed Frank A. Dobley, about 46, wealthy farmer and member of a pioneer family. Dooley was shot three times. Dooley'a body was found last night In the garage of the Marvin Evans ranch, seven miles northeast of here. The bullets, fired at close range from a .38 calibre revolver, entered the temple, abdomen and chest. Dep uty "District- Attorney E. W. King said none could have been self -in flicted and that Cooley had been dead several hourS be for" he was found. Much of our good friend Linn Mills' ballyhoo was taken with a slight sprinkling of salt, for It la a well known fact that young high school coaches can very easily be come so enthused over performances of their pupils as to make the gib ber ings of a high-powered press agent seem mild in comparison. In this case, however, there was such a sin cere ring of truth to Linn's vivid word-paintings of his ace hurler that a look-see became almost an abso lute necessity. So, as before mentioned, we went out .to Talent to watch the young ster pitch some baseball. What we saw was a husky lad Just 15 years old and still a freshman In high school strike out 15 St. Mary's bat ters and allow only 7 hits. Of those base knocks, only one was an honest-to-good ness clean blow. George Ottzen, St. Mary's catcher, really got hold of one for a line-drive triple into right center field but the other six hits were of the "Texas league" variety, or rollers Just out of reach of the inflelders. No fooling about It. Dick Skeeters looks like a kid that has what It bikes. His curve hall In not quite so crooked as a pretzel, nor does his fast one exactly re semble an aspirin tablet when it reaches the plate, but neverthe less, those two deliveries are far nnd away the sweetest we have ever seen In a high school pitcher. What's more, they tell us down Talent way that Skeoters isn't really a pitcher at all, but an lnfleldcr. Proud natives state that right now, he Is the best second sacker In the county, bar none, and that If given a chance In the Southern Oregon circuit this year, will bum up the league. As for his hitting ability well, Coach Mills has him batting In the number four position, which is cleanup In any league. Against Miksche, st, Mary's pitcher, he got one single Into right field. He takes a nice, easy cut at the ball, has a good eye, and what Is very import ant, doesn't step In the bucket. Irrigation Assured. HERMISTON, April 33.
