Officers investigating evi dence at the establishment yes terday reported they believed the burglar had hid himself in the building until time to lock up. After filling a carton with cigars and other small articles he was apparently stumped on how to make a . get-away through two locked entrances, police said. Authorities believe he must have crawled out a transom over the front door of the establishment, but found the extra burden of his loot too large for the opening. Police reported marks were found on the inside front and back entrances indicating some one had tried to use a glass cut ter to pry their way out. $200 in cash was also reported stolen.

There are no labels on them nor reports from any Houston citizen as to the loss of said suits. . So if he doesn't need them any more than that, they should worryi Daily Weather Report FORECASTS Medford and vicinity Intermittent rain tonight and Thursday. Little l change in temperature.

Closing time for Sunday Too Late to Classify 5-30 Saturday afternoon Please remember Chicago, Feb. 7--U.R) Cancer is on its way out as a fatal di sease, according to Dr. Clarence C. Little, executive director of the American Cancer society Little told ACS state com manders last night that cancer will be reduced by research to a minor cause of death within the near future. "There is no doubt we are moving in the direction of find ing the origin and nature of the disease," Little said. "We are not seeking a 'cure' for cancer but methods of preventing and controlling it." In the last decade more pro gress has been made In cancer research than in the previous 200 years, he told the group. This advance, he said, justified the society's $3,000,000 cam paign, scheduled to open April 1 to help promote research .in the field. OBITUARY ' MRS. MYRA H. GREENE Mrs. Myra H.
