FIELDING mill SECTION TWO INLAND EMPIRE mm. ISO AND GAME SESSION ENDS AT BEAR LAKE ran FATALLY HURT Council Calls Special Session To Consider Charges Made Against Murdock Mechanic, Blinded by Lights, Steps Into Path of Auto On Foothill Route Angling Prospects for Coming Season Good, Commission Finds on Inspection Victim Said Beaten With Blackjack to Climax Dispute New Moose Home to Be Dedicated "John always spoke as though he would never marry" A The state fish and game commission had left Big Bear valley yesterday at the close of the first session the body ever held in that district. The meeting ended Saturday night with a banquet at the Navajo hotel. Led by Director of Natural Resources George Nordenhold, the three members of the commission, J.

Dale Gentry, president; I. Zeller-bach and Earl Gilmore, and the executive officers, Major John L. Farley of San Francisco and A. E. Burghduff of Los Angeles, arrived early in the day.

FISHING PROSPECTS GOOD They were guests at a luncheon after which a tour of the lakes was made, and during which Dr. J. O. Snyder, chief of the bureau of fish culture of the commission, made a study of water conditions and of the game fish that now abound in the lakes. During this trip Dr.

Snyder was loud in his praise for the success that Commissioner Gentry has made in stocking the lakes with trout during the last two years. Present indications are that the opening of the trout season May 1 will find fishing better than last year. After inspecting the lakes the commission went into regular session. Through a plan submitted to the board it is hoped that addi-! tional capable trappers may be ob- tained from relief workers to re duce such predators as feed on game, especially deer. Mr.

Gentry said from investigation made since the end of the last deer season there appear to be more deer in the mountains this year than last, and, though the quail were not as numerous in the higher elevations, there seems to be plenty to produce birds during the coming season. QUAIL PROJECT TOLD He presented to the sportsmen the details of the quail project the commission is engaged in. To date there has been delivered to the commission 15,000 valley quail of the order for 100,000 purchased in Mexico. These birds have been found to be in prime condition and the loss from transportation has been exceedingly small. As soon as the nesting season is over shipping of the trapped birds into this country will be resumed.

Justice C. R. Lynn welcomed the (Continued on Page Eleven) Lectures Scheduled At Riverside J. C. To establish a scholarship fund at Riverside junior college, four scientists, all professors at California Institute of Technology, will present lectures there during the next month.

The first will be Tuesday night when Ernest C. Watson speaks on "Low Temperatures and Low Temperature Phenomena." Other lectures follow: April 17, Dr. John P. Buwalda, "The Earthquake Situation in Southern California;" April 24, Dr. John A.

Anderson, "The 200-inch Telescope and its Possibilities;" May 8, Dr. Robert A. Millikan, "The New Deal in Physics." All lectures start at 8 p. m. Sales of New Cars Set Record in City Sales of new automobiles continued again last week at the rapid pace that has been establishing a new record for San Bernardino.

The Business Men's association reported 32 new car sales for the week, including several machines in the higher price bracket. Whether Police Chief Dan G. Murdock shall be discharged for asserted failure to enforce the law by closing vice dens, lotteries and gambling joints in San Bernardino, will be decided tonight at a special city council session called by Council-men L. W. Ayers and Lester A.

Smith, without consulting Mayor Ormonde W. Sec-combe, who last week blocked an effort of the two councilmen to ask for Mur-dock's resignation. Tonight's public hearing, at 7:30 in the council chambers of the city hall, is a sequel to Chief Murdock's appearance before a recent council meeting to ask whether he should "oslose the town up tight, and clamp tra lid on all places operating in violation of the law." SMITH RAPS QUERY Dr. Ayers met the query by telling the chief that he "should not ask the council whether to enforce laws that it is the sworn duty of the police chief to enforce." At the next session, Councilman Smith, who was not present when the chief made his clean-up query, scored the chief for assertedly "putting the council on the spot, by making it appear to the public that the councilmen are protecting places operating in violation of the law." Smith then moved that the council ask for Chief Murdock's resignation, and Dr. Ayers seconded the motion, but Mayor Seccombe ruled the motion out of order, explaining that Murdock is entitled to a public hearing of written charges.

The two councilmen later obtained the cooperation of Councilmen W. N. Herkelrath and Howard L. Hol-comh, and called a special meeting to hear formal charges filed by Mr. Smith.

TO FIGHT OUSTER Chief Murdock has announced that he will fight the ouster at the hearing, and will present facts and figures in support of his claim that the police department has functioned efficiently during the 10 months of his regime. The open clash between Chief Murdock and the council follows closely upon the exoneration of Assistant Chief C. Lawrence Jordan from extortion charges filed against him by Chief Murdock. The civil service commission con ducted a sensational public hearing, and cleared Jordan of the charges. Jordan was, however, given a 30-day suspension without pay, because evidence at the hearing indicated he had frequented Chinese lottery establishments and had purchased tickets on the games of rhance.

At the request of Chief Murdock the suspension was reduced to 19 days, and Jordan is now back in his office as assistant chief. Chief Murdock has declared that he is being advised by a lawyer in his clash with the council, and tonight's hearing is expected to be featured by a controversy between opposing counsel, in addition to the arguments involving the mayor, the city council, and Chief Murdock. The council can, by four-fifths vote, oust the chief of police, but appointment of a new executive is the sole prerogative of the mayor. College Lecture Booked Tuesday In the sixth of a series of lectures being presented at the San Bernardino valley junior college, Prof. Alfred E.

Longueil, associate professor of English at the University of California at Los Angeles, will speak Tuesday night. His subject will be "What Do We Learn From History?" In discussing this topic Professor Longueil will review the book, "What Befell" by J. J. Jusserand, who iWiis French ambassador at Washington for 23 years, from 1902 to 1925. The lecture will be held in the college social hall, starting at 7:45 p.

said Dr. Nicholas Ricciardi, president of the junior college. Film Pair Announce Riverside Marriage Martha Sleeper and Hardie Albright, motion picture pHayers, disclosed in Hollywood yesterday they had been married Saturday in Riverside. An uncle, J. J.

Murdock, wealthy manufacturer, and a cousin, Mrs. Ethel Murdock, attended the bride. Albright is the son of C. W. Albright of Hollywood.

Miss Sleeper said their honeymoon would have to await the completion of a picture now in production in which she has a leading part. The death yesterday of a Colton man, 12 hours after he is said to have been beaten in a fight, led to the arrest last night of two other Colton residents, joint owners of a rooming house, who were booked for suspicion of murder. The dead man is William C. Lawson, 42 years old. He succumbed at the county hospital at 2:30 p.

m. yesterday. Less than an hour later, his asserted assailants, James Martin, also 42, and J. J. Burton, the latter's partner in operation of the Southern rooms at 233 street, Colton, were arrested by Chief John Miller of the Colton police department.

BLACKJACK USED Chief Criminal Deputy Sheriff James W. Stocker and Deputy Harry R. Heap, who took charge of the investigation yesterday afternoon for Sheriff Ernest T. Shay, ordered the men held after questioning them throughout the afternoon. According to the two deputies and Chief Miller, Martin admitted hitting Lawson four times with a blackjack, but claimed self-defense, asserting that Lawson had struck him first with a piece of rubber hose.

Lawson, the officers said, had been living In a cottage at the rear of the rooms operated by Martin and Burton, leased to him by the latter two. Saturday night, about 11 p. Lawson and Burton engaged In an argument over the amount of electricity which Lawson could use in the cottage, which, officers said, was climaxed by Burton's going back to the rooming house and disconnecting an electric wire which furnished light for Lawson's cottage. TELLS OF DISPUTE Enraged, Lawson, assertedly carrying the piece of rubber hose, started for the main building. He attempted to enter at the main door, but Burton held it closed.

Martin hearing the argument, came to the front of the house just as Lawson forced his way inside, officers were told. Then, according to Martin's story to the officers, Lawson struck him across the face with the rubber hose. Martin, whipping out the blackjack, struck Lawson on the head with it, according to authorities. Burton called Colton police, who, upon arrival, arrested Lawson and took him to the station for questioning. He was conscious and able to walk, Chief Miller and Officer John Caster declared.

Dr. I. S. Miller advised that he be sent to the county hospital for observation. He lost consciousness there yesterday morning and died a few hours later.

Martin and Burton -were both questioned yesterday by the officers, and statements were given to Deputy District Attorney Karl F. King. Coroner R. E. Williams and Deputy Cor oner E.

P. Doyle, who investigated, had made no plans for an inquest. Lawson's body was taken to the J. W. Woodhou.se mortuary.

He was an electrician by trade and had resided In Colton for five years. He ia survived by a sister, Mrs. Zada Emery, Vancouver, whose address was found in an envelope In the man's pocket.

MOOSE (Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat) has returned from his vacation. Medico Dental 575 5th Bt Phone 4751 Apparently blinded by automobile headlights as he attempted to cross the highway in heavy traffic, John L. Coffman, 55 year-old Los Angeles mechanic, was struck down by a car and instantly killed on the Foothill boulevard just west of Fontana last night. Mrs. Coffman, walking beside her husband, was also struck and badly bruised.

Their daughter, Mrs. Sadie Rude, escaped injury. The car which 27 struck Mr. and Ki led County Traffic Wrecks Mrs- Coffman was During 1934 piloted by B. F.

The Coffmans and Mrs. Rude were returning to Los Angeles after a trip to the San Bernardino mountains. They stopped at a roadside cafe on the highway west of Fontana for dinner. Returning to their car, which they had parked across the boulevard, they stepped into the traffic and started to cross the highway. Mr.

CHAPTER 1 "John is going to be married," Alysia Naylor said the wr almost between teeth, as she stared at her sister across the pleasant breakfast table in Chelsea Gardens.

"So Lady Ida got him at last," her sister observed calmlv. "Lady Ida! He's going to marry some widow-woman or other of whom no one has ever heard!" They were talking of their cousin, in whose house they were living. "Indeed." Her sister put more sugar on her grapefruit with an air of absorption. Only after it was well powdered did she look up. "How do you know?" "I've a letter from Aunt Norah.

She simply gloats over the whole affair. A Mrs. Burnham, designing I thing, has used the time while i aunt was recovering from her accident to rope John in." I "But surely you are pleased for dpar John's sake?" Etta Naylor; looked pained surprise at her sis- ter. Both women were past 30. 1 Henrietta was the younger, a hand-j some woman, tall and fair-headed and as plump as her dressmaker and tailor permitted.

Alysia, the elder, was thin and dark, with an ugly, passionate, vivid face. Her hair, dark too, seemed always to float around her temples, giving her an air tragic and muse-like. An appearance which some said was! carefully cultivated. "For goodness' sake, Etta, don't always be so smug!" Alysia broke off a piece of rye bread, and snapped it down on the table as though it were the highest trump. i "It's perfectly damnable.

And you think so, too! Of course we looked on John as a confirmed bach. Since he evidently wasn't going to marry Ida Westmacott after all. Besides, SEVEN CITIES BALLOT TODAY Voters in seven San Bernardino county cities today will go to the polls to elect members of their respective city councils. In Redlands Mayor W. L.

Fowler, N. Leo Lelean and A. E. Brock form what is known as the administration bloc. Fowler and Lelean are Incumbents and Brock present state assemblyman.

F. A. Alexander, former councilman, is an independent candidate while the Redlands Civic league endorsement has been given to Mancha Brugge-meyer, Charles A. Maccubbin and Oscar V. O'Neal.

Four candidates are out for two posts on the Colton council the two incumbents, Mayor E. F. Harford and J. W. Junod and their opponents, Sendol B.

Munger and Carl T. Rlmbaugh. Three councilmen are to be chosen in Ontario's poll from the following list: one-year term, Sherman M. Hoyt, incumbent, and Charles C. Swain; two-year terms, Roy Boyles, Incumbent, Albert V.

Hughes, Vernon R. Pittenger, Edward Middough, W. B. Hollings-worth and Thomas T. Prough.

Six candidates are in the field for three posts on Upland's council. They are A. H. Johnson, incumbent, Guy Clark, Fred E. Draper, Edwin O.

Bowden, D. J. Cameron and E. Earl Marsh. Three council posts are also vacant in Rialto, with the incumbents, S.

J. Bolster, E. C. Doyle and Nels R. Benson being opposed by Mark Moses, Victor Hesp and R.

P. Mohle. Three more incumbents are seeking reelection in Chino, Otto Bert-schinger, Leo Beck and Charles F. Bonadiman. A fourth candidate is George V.

Decker. A field of six is seeking two seats, each for four-year terms, on the Needles council. They are W. A. Webster, William M.

Claypool Jack Kelly, Arthur M. Skaggs, Jack A. Markham and Arthur H. Drake. i I it, with no house, no servants, no car why it's starvation beggary of course, Reggie and I can't marry on this!" "My girls' club will have to be given up," Etta murmured sadly.

"But don't you think, dear, it's rather selfish of us to look at this piece of news just from our own standpoint?" She gave a bright, brave smile. Her sister made a sound in her throat, suggestive of being strangled. "Reggie!" she called suddenly, as a step sounded outside the door. "Any one call me?" asked a rich baritone voice, and Reginald Clar-idge came into the room. "I told Tompkins that it was a waste of breath to announce me.

Morning, Etta. Morning, dearest thing!" He waved a finger at Etta, and kissed Alysia's dark, thin cheek. Alysia held on to his hand and sat looking up at him with something yearning in' her face, something real and genuine. There was nothing real or genuine In the handsome debonair one looking into hers. Seldom does a face show one purpose in life as clearly as did this young man's, and that purpose was to do the very best for Reginald Claridge that circumstances permitted.

So far, no very good chance had come his way. A penniless chemist working in a beauty parlor laboratory, he had been immensely flattered at being taken up by Alysia Naylor, who was hostess at the big old house where money evidently was plentiful, and where he had an entrance into circles which otherwise he could never have reached. That Alysia had had the good taste to fall in love with him was very pleasant (Continued on Page Eleven) Alm-of llnalin.inhln n.Ai.rn.. V. Li oeen made in construction or tne Boulder dam and associated developments, G.

A. Atwood. prominent San Bernardino resident, said yesterday following a trip to the site of the giant Government project. It was Mr. Atwood's first trip to the damsite In four years, and the contrast in conditions then and now is striking, he said.

He was accompanied by Mrs. Atwood and their grandson and granddaughter, William (Tag) Atwood and Miss Frances Atwood. Mr. Atwood was told by a Government engineer that actual conservation of floodwaters from the Colorado river is expected to start next December, marking the beginning of formation of a great lake back of the dam. There are now 4,000 men working on the dam, in three shifts of eight hour each, the San Bernar-dinan said.

Boulder City is truly a model community, with a population of about 8,000. The San Ber-nardinans left Friday morning, and reported all roads were in excellent condition, and the weather ideal. "I regret that I was unable to postpone my trip until Wednesday, when the chamber of commerce caravan visits the dam," said Mr. Atwood. Business made it impossible for me to make the chamber of commerce tour, so I determined to go anyway.

The trip is truly well worth anyone's time." One Under Arrest On Dyer Act Charge Earl Fisher, 28 years old, was arrested yesterday in Highland on a Dyer act violation charge by Deputy Sheriff Harry R. Heap and C. O. Bott, department of justice agent. Fisher is said to have stolen a car in Oklahoma and abandoned it in New Orleans.

ATIOD VIEWS DAI PROGRESS he always spoke as though he would never marry." "But haven't you found" Etta spoke with an air of imparting an interesting and quite original discovery of her own "haven't you found that people don't always do as they say, or think they will? I have." And she tackled her grapefruit again. Alysia pushed her chair away from the table. "It means the end of everything between Reggie and me," she said under her breath. "Oh, surely not!" murmured her sister in a shocked voice. "Surely not, indeed!" scoffed the other, "you and Etta, have 300 pounds a year between us.

Between us!" "Claud has exactly the same," Etta threw in brightly. Claud was their brother. "And don't you suppose he's feeling just as we are about this blow? Though he's got his profession. A clever barrister can earn thousands." "Personally, I'm glad for dear John's sake that he's going to have a real home of his own. I never did think that Lady Ida would suit him.

And since Aunt Norah is pleased, you did say that she's pleased, didn't you? why, I'm prepared to like this Mrs. Burn-ham very much indeed." Her sister flashed a look of scorn at her and smacked the table again, this time with her aunt's letter, which Etta took and carefully read, murmuring, "May while her sister raved on. "Three hundred pounds between us with this house of John's to live in, with his car to use, with him always willing to entertain one's friends, was one thing, but 300 pounds, or rather the half of Appointment of Hooper on U.S. Board Is Sought With early action by Congress anticipated on the plan to create a Federal communications commis sion to supervise the telephone, telegraph and radio facilities of the nation, the name of Capt. Stanford C.

Hooper, native of San Bernardino and now the highest ranking communications officer in the United States navy, is being prominently mentioned for a place on the proposed board, it was learned yesterday. If the new commission is authorized, it will take over the work heretofore performed by the Federal radio commission and In addition will supersede the interstate commerce icommlssion In all matters pertaining to communications. Amateur radio operators of San Bernardino and Riverside counties and members of the naval communications reserve are understood to be strongly in favor of Captain Hooper's appointment to the post, on the grounds that his long experience fully qualifies him for the office. Captain Hooper was born in San Bernardino and attended the public schools here, and In 1901 won an appointment to the naval academy at Annapolis. He has been in the naval service continuously since.

Captain Hooper spent 11 years in active sea duty and the years as a communication officer. He now is director of communications for the entire United States navy, having received this assignment in 1928. Democratic Clubs Federation Urged (Rv Associated Press) SAN FRANCISCO, April 8 Plans for formation of a California federation of Democratic clubs at a state meeting in San Francisco May 12 were proposed at a conference of northern California party leaders here.
