SAN BERNARDINO SUN-TELEGRAM 11 May 22. 1935 Injured Man Drags Self Up 200-Fo'ot Cliff in 40 Hours NEVADA CITY, Calif. tP After an agonizing 40 hours a badly injured man finally was able to drag himself up a 200-foot embankment Friday night and was found by a passing motorist. He is Louis Murphy, 55, whose panel truck crashed over the cliff just after dusk Wednesday. At a hospital in Grass Valley Saturday his condition was reported By DAVE PHILLIPS With a population of slightly LAgUNA BEACH Californi- than 6,000, Laguna can boast ans have their own way of life- community playhouse with 1,000 relaxed, informal, out-of-doors and 3ts essence is here in this jmembers- Highlight of the tourist postcard-picturesque village on season is the Laguna midsummer rockyj bluffs over the Pacific surf.

Fistic violence has broken out in a Vegas' cold war over ownership of its booming casinos. Squaring off were Beldon Katie-man, owner of El Rancho Vegas and a 20 per cent stockholder in the New Frontier, and Maury Friedman, Los Angeles real estate man. Friedman slugged Katleman, knocked him down twice and had to be hauled off him before further damage was done, when the two men testified at a deposition hearing, it was reported.

LOTS OF ACTION Depositions were being taken on Friedman's appeal from a Nevada License Commission's ruling which rejected Friedman's application to buy into the New Frontier. Friedman was thumbed down as an "undesirable" and is appealing from that ruling. Hot words between Katleman and Friedman led to the swinging of fists, which was halted by their respective attorneys. Katleman came up with a bleeding lip after his two knockdowns, it was reported. Witnesses said there was more action in the brawl than the recent Archie Moore-Nino Valdes fight.

Their attorneys were scheduled to meet Saturday in an effort to settle their differences more Tto rl the residential section seems, to townspeople.

Murphy, who operates the Dew Drop Inn south of Grass Valley, said his brakes locked and the truck skidded over the 200-foot embankment.

One foot was wedged in the floorboards. He could not free it. Leaking gasoline soaked his clothing and burned his skin. He suffered from the night cold of the mountain country. At daybreak Thursday he managed to free his crushed and broken foot.

He began crawling up the crumbled shale embankment. He soon became exhausted, and suffered this time the other weather extreme the scorching heat. And again, that night, from the cold. Friday morning, driven by thirst -and hunger, he once more set himself to the ascent. Grasping shrubbery and tree limbs, he fought his way to the top.

Police Sgt.

Milton Henderson said the car with the five 16-year-old boys passed his car at high speed on Paseo del Mar and he gave chase. The pursuit lasted for a mile and ended when the speeding teenagers crashed into the parked automobile. Miss Marilyn Hill, 18, of Gar-dena, was seated in the parked car with Charles Faucheux, 19, of Compton. She suffered a possible fractured pelvis and broken leg. Faucheux was not injured.

The car fleeing from the police vehicle was being driven by Daniel Cromp. He suffered major injuries as did one of his passengers, Donald Knowles. The three other high school boys fled on foot and escaped.

But it was abundantly evident that manufacturers of consumer goods were chewing up some basic industrial materials faster than producers could supply them. WORRY OUT LOUD Top Washington officials, worrying out loud about threatened shortages of materials needed for defense, singled out copper, aluminum, nickel and certain kinds of steel for special mention. Said Defense Mobilizer Arthur Flemming: "We cannot go on diverting materials from the stockpile indefinitely. Unless there is improvement in the fall, we will have to consider further expansion of activity." Orders on manufacturers' books indicated little likelihood of any major slowdown in demand for scarce metals.
