Struck by an automobile vrhila he was walkine alnne I the 401 ranch road about a mile east of the Crater Lake high way, Franklin ntzpatrick, 14, yesterday afternoon suffered a fractured left hip and a broken left leg between the knee and ankle. The boy's attending physician said today he was resting fairly comfortably in Sacred Heart hospital.

Franklin and his aunt were walking west on the right side of the road, the same direction being traveled by the automo bile. Turpin told police that he lowed down and swung wide to the left as he started to pass the boy and his aunt, and that young Fitzpatrick, for no ap parent reason, ran in front of the car. Franklin was struck by the right front fender and bumper of the behlcle and tossed, ac cording to his aunt, several feet Into the air. The point of the accident was about 100 yards from the Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Berkheimer home, where Frank lin was residing.

OFFERS ON BARTS ARE REPORTED BY LOCAL COMMITTEE (f-atlnued trvra Page One ) The difficulty of keeping to an agreed price was indicated in the July 27 issue of the Pacific Rural Press. 'This canning pear deal gives one heart failure to follow," the article began. Then followed a variety of quoted prices for cannery Bartletts In a number of northern California centers. "Canners paid $32.50 a ton on the Sacramento river for can nery grades (which exceed pro rate grades) for 2i Inches and then for pro-rate grades and 2' inch size," the article said. "Some growers sold S'4 Inch seconds for $17.50. Packing house culls, coming off the "left hand side of the grader,' sold by the lot for $17.50, asked $32.90 per ton. "The going price thereafter was $30 for pro-rate grade 2H inches in the Santa Clara valley. Growers there who had voted to ask $43 and then reconsidered to ask $40 were out threatening neighbors who sold for Sao. Many of the growers in tliia val ley were picking and delivering to canners of their choice before a price was agreed to, with a 2?s inch size basis." Prices in other districts were quoted, showing a variation be tween $30 and $27.50. "Two out fits in Lake county were offer ing canning Bartletts at for $32.50 as we went to press," the article said.
