MURDER CHARGE IS
DENIED BY CHAPMAN
ON WITNESS STAND
HARTFORD, Conn., A p rl 1 2.
Gerald Chapman this morning took
the stand in his own detente on the
charge, of murdering Patrolman
James Skelly In New Britain last
October 12.'
Chapman, cool and collected,
speaking In clear tones denied he
had been In the Davidson and Lov
enthal store in New Britain at any
time, It was In this store that Skel
ly was murdered.
His direct examination was brief.
Under questioning of Frederick J.
Oroehl, he told of having met Walt
er F. Shean of Springfield, Mass,,
who first accused him of the Skelly
murder through the agency of
"Dutch Anderson) his pal of the New
York mail robbery."

SCOUT WORK IN
KLAMATH
GIVEN
J. F. Kimball today issued the
following statement In reference to
the Boy Scout work: .
' "Inasmuch as the citizens of
Klamath county raised more than
$3000 for the Boy Scout work In
the fall of 1924, the temporary of
ficers of this organization believe
that the public should be Informed
of the present status of the move
ment. A brief resume Is therefore
presented.
A field secretary representing the
Boy Scouts of America visited south
ern Oregon in the early fall of 1924,
and arrived at the conclusion that
a first class council of Boy Scouts
should be formed, comprls'ng Jose
phine, Jackson and Klamath coun
ties. Meetings of representative citi
zens In these counties were held
and considerable enthusiasm de
veloped, which resulted in subse
quent joint meetlngB of delegates
from Klamath Falls, Medford and
Grants Pass. Medford and Klamath
Falls finally decided to organize to
gether a first class council on a
fifty-fifty basis, each city bearing
one-half of the expense, and being,
therefore, entitled to equal bene
fits from such an organization. The
citizens of Klamath Falls appointed
J. A. Cordon, Wl E. Bobbltt and J. F.
Kimball as their representation sin
the preliminary organization. This
committee met with the Medford
committee, and the temporary offic
ers of the council elected were F. J.
Nowman, president, and J. F. Kim
ball, treasurer.
'i Each city thereupon undertook to
raise Its share of the $5000 esti
mated budget for the year 1926. . J.
A. Gordon was made treasurer of
the Klamath county contributions,
and our campaign resulted In secur
ing over $3000.00 in cash. In the
meantime, Medford, while not col
lecting Its full quota, raised oyer
$1 7 0 0 and received assurance
that the entire amount would be se
cured. Recent' meetings of the Klamath
Falls committee with the Medford
committee brought about a decision
to employ a highly trained executive
for n period of six months. A char-
tor for a first clans council will not
be granted unless a paid executive
, approved by the National Council is
I employed!- The temporary officers
have selected Cecil A. Cook, who

comes to us highly recommended by
the National Council, and whose of-
Ificlal title will bo Scout Executive.
His time will be equally divided be-
tweea Medford and Klamath Falls.
His duties ore to organize, in coop
eration with the Scout Commission
er, Boy Scout troops,, to train the
Scout Masters of .these troops, and to
furnish to eacii community the bene
fit of his training and experience
in the conduct of Scout work. The
Scout Executive Is the only paid of-
ficlal In the organization, and Mr.
Cook Is to be-paid jointly by Med
ford and Kii-math Falls, $200
per month, together with traveling
expenses.
j The Reverend T. A. Meryweatber
was selected by the committee as the
Scout Commissioner for Klamath
Falls. The duties of the Scout Com
jimlssioner are to assist in the selec
' tlon of the Scout Masters of each
troop, to help the Scout Executive
; organize patrols, and to advise with
the officers of the council. Owing
to the fact that the Reverend Mery
weather will soon leave Klamath
Falls for other fields, Mr. Julius
Mueller has been selected as his suc
cessor.
Confusion has undoubtedly arisen
as to the duties of the various offic
ials of the Scout organization, ow
ing to the fact that the Reverend
Meryweatber has been acting In the
dual capacity of Scout Commission
er and Scout Master. The Scout
Master handles only one troop wh'le
the Scout Commissioner Is In charge
