LOCHINVAR FROM
NORTH BRIDELESS
"Crusher" Is Put on Elopcmeni
Plans of "Ruck" Brokaw and
Senator Daughter

SAN JOSE, May 11.-Parental inter-
ference on the eve OF their departure
from Los Angeles on Saturday MORN
ing's train for the north, it was learned
today, prevented an elopement OF
"Ruck" Brokaw, a former Stanford
man now In business in Seattle, and
Miss NJ Mclaughlin of Los Angeles, a
daughter of Senator Mclaughlin of
that city.
Brokaw had arranged with Elmer
Hudson, another Stanford man and a
fraternity brother who lives In San
Jose, for assistance. Hudson had arr
ranged to meet the elopers at the train
last evening and help them get their
marriage license and to attend them
during the ceremony. Everything was
ready for the wedding. and the local
conspirators were not little surprised
when Brokaw appeared without his
bride to be.
During the few moments the train
stopped here Brokaw made a rather
inadequate explanation of the failure
of his coup, and continued on his way
north.
