Who's Crazy Now?
Tom Murray St.vUnj Gardner's Thunder
Comes now the father of Tom Murray and confides
to a Salem reporter that his son, the said Tom Murray,
was hit in the head with a rock when a boy, and that un
questionably a mental derangement resulted which is to
blame for the younger Murray's career of criminality
which reached its climax in the killing of two prison
guards and a sensational dash for liberty.
Interesting, if true; also touching. Remarkable, too,
in that the elder Murray failed to recall this unfortunate
circumstance until after his son was captured and the
shadow of the gallows was cast upon him.
At the risk of seeming hard-hearted, we suggest that
the accident to Tom Murray was especially unfortunate
in the fact that the blow was not fatal.
It is not strange that a criminal, facing death for his
misdeeds, should cast about in every direction for an ex
cuse to save his life. Neither is it strange that a father
would be almost as anxious to prevent the payment which
his son. owes to society.
But in these excuses there seems a shocking lack of
originality. Many years ago Harry K. Thaw used the in
sanity dodge after killing Stanford White. It worked,
and since" then it has been used with variations by our
best murderers. The head injury, causing a brain lesion,
resulting in chronic criminality, came later. One of the
most prominent outlaws to invoke this means of escape
was Roy Gardner, mail bandit So far he has failed to
make it work.
Ey a coincidence, both Gardner and Tom Murray
were captured in Centralia.
Sometimes coincidences come in pairs. Will Murray
also fail in shifting the guilt for the murder of the Ore
gon penitentiary guards to the hand that hurled the rock
way back in the days of Murray's childhood? Bend

The Ball They Hit'
Better Batters Now In The Baseball Game
A college professor has been weighing, measuring,
analyzing the official league baseball. He finds that it
is absolutely the same as it was when six or seven was a
big score in innings for a major league nine.
Why, then, the home run epidemic? How account
for a major league burst of thirteen runs in one inning?
Aren't the pitchers as good as of old? They are; but the
batters are better- The supply from the sand lots has risen
to meet the demand. The boy who can hit the ball has
become as much of a hero as the pitcher. Successions of
strikeouts and outs at first, which had given the game a
mechanical monotony, brought concentration on high
prices and rewards for those who could give two base
hit and home run thrills. The balance can be restored
by rules favoring the pitchers if we are tired of free hit
ting. Are we?
American Army Mule Again
French Find Him Useful In Morocco
Things are going better for the French in Morocco.
No honor is to be taken away from Marshal Petain; but
it is noted in the report that the American mule has ar
rived. Wherever there is war he is in demand. Motor
transport can not take his place on mountain paths. The
whir of airplanes, the swish of bombs, or the scream of
shells cannot disturb his phlegm; or oaths unduly hasten
him to a nervous breakdown. His toughness is proof
against all climates. If you could get the enemy soldiers
in turn to tickle his heels, ho could win any war by himself.
Yell fire at a movie and half the flappers will rush
out without waiting tj slip their shoes back on.
