We had just told son Robert not to pick up any hitchhikers on his way to school. One family bar ricaded their doors that night with chairs. Another lady said she slept with a revolver under her pillow. Another old timer took a thirty thirty down off'n a cow-horn rack, slipped a shell into the barrel and left it at the head of his bed. Why? Over the radio last Wednesday morning came the word that three convicts had escaped from the Da vis Creek prison camp No. 39. It turned out to be one Negro and two whites. For two cold days and nights they were out in the vicinity of Sugar Hill but the towns of Wil low Ranch and NPO were alerted and a road block was set up here at the edge of town. Everyone was more or less restless, until it was reported that the convicts had been caught Thursday. A state game officer caught the Negro up at the .old CO Camp on Lassen Creek while Deputy Sheriff Ross Harris, of Willow Ranch can be credited with the capture of the two whites at the mouth of Pea sant's Canyon near the old Elmer Davidson place seven miles south of here. It seems a state patrolman, a prison guard, Ross Harris and Johnny Still were traveling in two different cars along the old south bound highway when Ross stopped at the old Davidson cabins for a look-see. "This looks like a good place to hide out," he said. The other officers drove up and sloDned. But they believed the con victs were still In the Sugar Hill area. They were bent on getting a jeep at the Buck Creek ranger station ana orivng up towaiu iue Sugar Hill lookout. All riirht." said one of the of. fleers, "You look around here and we'll go on up and get the Jeep.' As the officers pulled out, Ross and Jonnny began to look around. They saw tracks leading up to the old cabins, "it was a queer leui tnir." Ross said, "not knowing whether them guys were armed or not. But we prowled arounq ana found where one cabin had been nrcunled lust recently. There was an old dish pan with ashes in it sittin' in the middle of tne noor; mnre'n half full of ashes. This indicated they'd been there quite a sdbII mavbe most the night." When they left the cabins Ross said they saw tracks leading up the hill which they followed. When they came over a little knoll, they say Sam Volta's trailer house parked up there beside his Ford ranch wagon. As tney drew nearer thev saw the trailer house door open and close spooky-like. "That's them," Ross muttered to Johnny.

Then the group closed in on the trailer house and found the escapees, comfortably situated Willi a name gas heater burning. Voltz had left his trailer and ranch wagon at that point as he couldn't get them any further up the hill. It is about a quarter ol a mile on up to his mine where he and his wile are working wnue tie Willow Ranch mill is down for five weeks or so. The car was reported, to have had it's wiring changed so It would run without the switch key.

Mr. and Mrs. Don Sanford re turned Tuesay evening, week ago, from their nice long honeymoon trip down to see the new bride's parents at Merced. They, took in Yosemite Park while there. Don said the Park was about out of water. Hardly any water in Mer ced River and hardly any water coming over Bridal Veil and Horse Tail falls. They were doing some skiing at Glacier Point, he said. Don and his wife have an apart ment in Lakeview but he is com muting to and from the ranch where he Is helping his father. His wife is working in Lakeview. Mrs. Zella Blurton arrived Sat urday Jan. 9th, for an indefinite visit with her in-laws, Mr. and Mrs. Sally Gallagher.

They must think it's some mark of bravery to wear scars. H-unh! "where Ignorance is bliss, 'tis folly to be wise." . By TOM WHITNEY AP Foreign staff The possession of wealth Is cre ating problems for some members o( the growing class of rich per sons in the Soviet Union, the Mos cow press indicates. A class of well-to-do citizens ex ists in Russia mainly as a rcult of liberal rewards to scientists and military men whose work is highly regarded by the government. The wealth, in turn, has attracted so cial parasites. Moscow newspapers in recent weeks have disclosed scandals in volving a marriage for money and a society murder case. Izvestia related the case, of an heiress described as Citizeness L. She was the daughter of' a scien tist who -earned large sums during his lifetime, and left her well pro vided for, by soviet standards, She had a big apartment on Kaluga Chaussee, a Moscow boulevard where wealthy scientists and gen erals constitute a sort of Russian "Gold Coast." She also had country -residence, an automobile, a large library and considerable money. Citizeness L. was dying of an In curable disease. Her situation, ac cording to Izvestia, attracted a 'hanger-on on the fringe of- sci ence," a certain M. K. Rastsvet ayev. - , ' How this character . persuaded Citizeness L. to marry him is not clear. It's also, not clear whether Johnny Weeps, Bui Ray Divorced JUAREZ Mexico lri Johnny Ray wept Thursday but the court went right ahead and granted a divorce to his wife, Marilyn Mor rison Ray, on grounds of incom patibility. ' The crying crooner said he hoped to marry again "and have a home and kids." Miss Morrison, asked if she planned to wed again, replied: "We'll see." she knew he had an unregistered and therefore illegal marriage of long standing with the mother of his four children, now aged 16 to 30. . Rastsvetayev married the heir ess last May and she died 18 days later. He took over her property with the approval of all legal in stitutions, since under Soviet law be clearly was -the heir. Ir-vestia protests this whole situ ation, though it fails to point out the legal loophole through which Rastsvetayev will be deprived of his inheritance. The paper does raise the question of his party membership. It looks as if he wilt be expelled from the Communist party. An interesting sidelight is the fact that the old scientist willed his property to his daughter. His son, Izvestia comments, belongs to the class of "the gilded youth who consider it their ideal to lead an empty, playboy type of life." Komsomol Pravda recently de scribed a sensational case involv ing such youths. Families of dis tinguished scientists were involved along with a retired colonel's son. This began in a den of Iniquity on Gorky street known as "Kok- teil Goll." or "Cocktail Hall." It's a typical story - of easy money, boys from wealthy families with no conscience and light fingers, girls, automobiles, orgies In the country, and the inevitable crime. Money, rings, books and- other things were stolen to obtain funds. Then an acquaintance of one of the boys found out what was going on. It was feared he would "squeal. There seemed only one thing to do, . and the youths did it. The body was discovered in a for est near Moscow. Two of the youths drew 20-year terms, two others 10 and 15-year terms. The paper blames the mess on the parents, who spoiled their chil dren even to the point of ignoring their thefts in their own liomes. the past 20 years. Hartung said the state situation "is much worse than the repre sentation In our national Congress. . ; . Most workers are urban resi dents. ." . . Our cities are growing, our rural areas are shlnking. . . ." tie aaaea that da per cent of our voters live in cities but elect only 2o per cent of the state legislators. He said these figures came from the U. S. Conference of Mayors. Tht labor laws some of these slates would pass would repudiate "the - President's past promises that no laws licensing 'union bust ing' can be tolerated," Hartung said. - The Woodworkers' head said he did not like other features of the President's proposed Taft-Hartley changes. He said a requirement for a government-supervised strike vote would suoceed In adding more of the bureaucracy which "already Is costing us countless dues dol lars each year to break through.': 4 PEHISH SPENCER, TENN, Wl A fath er, mother, daughter and grand son burned to death when fire caused by a gasoline explosion destroyed their five room rural home near here Thursday.
