While authorities were seeking Gus Cerney near Carbondale, 111., on a charge of killing his auburn-haired wife, Ideama Cerney, and left her nude body in the desert near Adclanto, Superior Judge L.

Allison yesterday granted Coroner A. W. petition to set aside an inquest verdict returnea last week in Victorville. According to the court records, this is the first time in the history of San Bernardino county that an inquest verdict has been set aside. The jury found that an "unidentified woman" died of a fractured skull, having been slain by "a person or persons unknown." This verdict was returned Oct.

24. This action was taken to permit a new inquest in Los Angeles, where the murder took rlace. Since then the identity of the body has been established through the efforts of Sheriff Ernest T. Shay and his deputies, and the Los Angeles county authorities have charged Gus Cerney with the crime, a warrant having been issued for his arrest. Cerney was seen in Carbondale, 111., on Oct.

23, according to officers there who were notified to be on the watch for the suspect. He Is known to have relatives in that section of the country. Coroner Frank Nance of Los Angeles county had asked that the San Bernardino county inquest be set aside to clear the way for a second inquest in Los Angeles, since later investigation Indicated the slaying occurred in the couple's Los Angeles home rather than in San Bernardino county.

Ham Seriously Injured in Fall OF MARKET STUDY County Sends Eight Delegates to L. A. Citrus Parley; Stress Loose Fruit, Cull Survey Grower and marketing experts, representing California's entire citrus Industry, assembled In Los Angeles yesterday to learn that the University of California extension service contemplates a comprehensive study of marketing evils and surplus crop control. San Bernardino county sent eight delegates, five from the Redlands area and three from the Fontana-Rlalto-Bloomlngton district.

Conferring throughout the morning, the citrus men wrestled with problems that have confronted the industry ever since prices ceased to guarantee growers the highest net returns earned by an American agricultural pursuit. They left with the university experts the impression that they should lay particular stress upon the loose fruit and cull problems during their investigation. Marketing Costs Topic Of Address Dr. H. R.

Wellman, the university's expert in agricultural economics, promised a complete survey, which will deal with such subjects as ways of reducing or eliminating crop surpluses, elasticity of demand, costs of markel ing, type and extent of competition between California oranges and other products, relation between supplies and prices of California oranges by size and grades, etc. Warren R. Schoonover, expert in citriculture, also addressed the gathering. Associated Citrus Growers, the Redlands-H 1 1 a organization that has arisen during recent months to cope with problems of the industry, was represented at yesterday's conference by M. W.

H. Williams and George Goldle. The latter also represented the Gold Buckle association of East Highlands. Charles T. Paine, originally named to represent Associated Citrus Growers with Mr.

Williams, was kept away by illness. Mutual Orange Distributors sent three delegates. General Manager C. P. Earley and Sales Manager J.

A. Steward, of Redlands, and Allen Break of Bryn Mawr. Low-Grade Fruit Is Held Problem Yesterday's meeting recognized Associated Citrus Growers as one of the important groups in the industry. Other districts of the state were represented by farm bureau delegates. Shipments of low-grade fruit from California during the past season contributed to a situation that found Florida oranges outselling California fruit for the first time, said Dr.

Wellman. He displaced charts showing also that returns from California oranges raised and dropped in proportion to the employment situations In the East. "it became evident to all of us present that control of low-grade fruit is necessary," said Mr. Williams. "The question, however, is where to draw the line.

Dr. Well-man pointed out that the loss by restricting shipments can be made so great that it will not be offset by any rise in prices that might result." "A surplus of oranges," said Dr. Wellman, "is that quantity which is larger than the amount that can be sold at a price which covers the normal costs of the representative grower. "If all of the crop can be sold at a price which will result in a net increase in acreage, there is no surplus. But if the price at which all of the crop can be sold will, if continued for a period of years, cause a net decrease in acreage, or cause an increase in neglect or abandon-ment of orchards, there is a surplus.

"A surplus may exist even though the entire crop is sold, if the price nt which it is sold is so low that the returns to the efficient growers, who own good orchards, are less than those required to maintain them in the business." Fear and Worry Are Subjects for Yogi Following the class of Yogi Hamid Bey and Ralph J.

H. Mack, secretary of the chamber of commerce, which sponsored the autumn festival, announced yesterday.

The receipts represent the proceeds of the costume ball in the Municipal auditorium which followed the spectacular parade through the downtown district Monday night. Mr. Mack estimated that as soon as the few incidental expenses are paid about $300 will be available for retirement of the chamber's debt assumed to Insure construction of the Sisters of Charity hospital two years ago. Hospital Debt Down to $1,200 The hospital debt shouldered by the chamber originally was $8,000, and it has been trimmed down now to approximately $1,500. Thus the 1932 Mardi Gras will result in reduction of the hospital debt to about $1,200, Mr.

Mack estimated. Of the total receipts of $382 Monday night, $338 was in the form of paid admissions to the costume ball, while another $44 was realized through the refreshment stand and check room. The only expenses were for the orchestra and Halloween decorations for the huge ballroom, and these expenditures have not been fully tabulated as yet. This is the second year that proceeds from San Bernardino's annual Halloween festival have been devoted to the hospital fund. Committee Well Pleased With Fete Prior to that the money was given to the Parent-Teacher association for its supervised summer playgrounds for children, and next year, with the hospital debt expected to be erased, the Mardi Gras receipts will probably be devoted ajain to its original purpose.

Members of the general committee in charge of the Mardi Grr.s, headed by Chairman Fred B. Mack, were unanimous yesterday that this year's procession was the equal of, if not the superior to, any yet conducted. Feel IllFlt's Cold, Not Flu Most folk who think they have the flu at the present time merely have colds, according to Dr. E. B.

Godfrey, county health officer, who declared that San Bernardino county at present Is "remarkably free from influenza cases, considering the season of the year." Last year 188 cases of flu were reported in one month from Patton alone, while the last weekly bulletin issued by the state department of public health shows that only 123 cases of influenza were reported in the entire state, and 79 of these were in Los Angeles, the remainder being in the northern part of California. Dr. Godfrey said, however, that there are now 15 cases of "suspected flu" at the Loma Linda hospital and sanitarium, and about 12 cases at the county hospital. Needles hs two cases. City Health Officer W.

W. Fen-ton of San Bernardino announced last night that only two cases of the sickness had been reported in the city of Pan Bernardino. Dr. Fenton declared that no doubt there are several other flu cases that have not been reported. Two cases are reported in Colton.

Of the total number of answers submitted by far the greatest majority were for class thus assuring those who sent In subscriptions to qualify their answers in class and of a much great er opportunity of sharing in the prizes. It is natural in a competition of this kind that rumors of vast numbers of words being submitted are circulated, thus causing a great many to los heart, and either fail to send in their answers at all, or send them in to compete for a much smaller award.

Allen, above, chairman of the drive this year. Setting $4,000 as the amount needed to care for more than 250 San Bernardino families during the 1 coming year, the Red Cross will conduct its annual campaign for funds from Nov. 11 to Nov. 26, it was announced yesterday by Claude M. Allen, chairman of the drive.

Details of the campaign are now being worked out and will be com-i pleted within a week, including the selection of an executive commit-i tee to supervise the activities of workers that will be solicited from various service organizations and business houses. The bulk of the fund raising effort will be done by letters, according to Mr. Allen. "The work of the San Bernar-1 dino chapter of the Red Cross Is distinctive in that it is cooperative with relief distributed through all other agencies," said Mr. Allen.

I "The Red Cross has nothing to sell, as the Government forbids accept ance of money for articles required by needy citizens, and it freely gives aid to persons vouched for by other relief mediums, accepting the fact thst they have already been investigated and found worthy. "It is my plan to carry out the campaign for VI, 000 as quickly as possible, and to do this it will be necessary for me to ask the assistance of civic organizations, business houses and public spirited citizens. We believe that when people realize the service being rendered by the Red Cross In this community that our task shaJl be made much easier." Figures released by Mr. Allen show that In the past year 2,447 barrels of flour valued at $11,200, and 32,000 yards of cotton cloth worth $3,200 were made available for distribution by the local chapter. In addition $2,225 was appropriated by the National Red Cross for use in San Bernardino.

Mrs. T. R. Carlisle, executive secretary of the San Bernardino chapter, has been in direct charge of the distribution of relief during the past year and will continue in that capacity. She joined in the appeal by Mr.

Allen for San Bernardino to support "The Greatest Mother on during the campaign for funds.

BIT REDUCED Automobile thieves were less active in San Bernardino during October than any month this year, according to a report of police activities for the month of October, Med yesterday by Police Chief William H. Baldwin.

Only 30 cars less than one a day were stolen In Octolr. Car thefts in previous months averaged nearly two a day. All but four of the machines stolen In October have been recovered, the police report shows. Chief Baldwin attributes the decline of car thefts to the arrest, recently, of a gang of juvenile automobile thieves, who were stealing machines largely for the purpose of joy riding. The October report also shows 190 arrested.

Of this number, 65 were charged with drunkenness and 63 with violations of traffic laws. Police answered 249 calls during the month.
