In Past Years
TWENTY YEARS AGO

For the first time since it began

Standard was delayed for many
hours. Using electricity for its
printing, the plant is nevertheless
equipped with gasoline engine for
emergency. A broken casting on the
engine simultaneously with the
power going off, made much trou-

Gets Threats
By United Press Leased Wire


FRESNO, Calf, Feb. 4. = Two
death threats ordering O. :. Hub
bard, assistant superintendent OF
public schools here, to deliver his
10 year old adopted son, Leroy Ha-
gen Hubbard, to his former foster
mother in Los Angeles have been
received by the school official. he
revealed today.
The letters, mailed from Los An
geles Dee. %, and Jan. Is, were
signed Kramer and suggested
that Hubbard take tip from the
Marion Parker case by following in
structions "without publicity
LOS ANGELES, Feb. Airs.
Myrtle Hughes, former foster mother
cf Leroy Hagen Hubbard, 10, whose
foster father is said to have received
threatening letters ordering him to
return the boy to Mrs. Hughes, to-
day denied all knowledge Of the
threats.
She told police that she had be
come i'll in 1924 and had been forced
to turn the youth over to charities
here. Upon her recovery she attemp-
ted to regain custody of the lad but
found he had been adopted by o. $.
Hubbard, Of Fresno, she said.
Mrs. Hughes adopted the boy in
1918 when he was about a year old,
She explained. She did this in Mon
tgomery, Kansas, after the mother s
death, the father having been kill
I'd in France.
At that time Mrs. Hughes was
married to man named Hagen and
then came to California, bringing the
boy along. In 1924 Hagen deserted
her, Mrs. Hughes said.
She became i'll and short of fin
anccs and turned Leroy over to the
Native Daughters of Los Angeles.
Upon her recovery, six months lat.
cr, she found herself financially able
to care for the boy and sought to
regain custody of him. The Native
Daughters told her that Leroy had
been sent to their San Francisco
branch. Further inquiry developed
that Hubbard, assistant supcrintcn-
dent Of Fresno schools had adopted
the boy.
Mrs. Hughes, who was questioned
in her home, was to visit police head
quarters this afternoon. AT that
time authorities will decide on their
course of action, they said.

WANT AID PUZZLES

Want ads in recent years have become Greek to
many readers. Often they could not be deciphered
without extensive research. This due to orgy
of abbreviation
Words were shortened in natural desire to save
space and money Newspapers stood for it, and adver
tisers exercised their ingenuity more and more All
sorts of words shrurk to single syllable or letter.
Lines jammed with symbols ineligible only to
the elect and not always to them Authorizations
Tapped, so that "col." might coored or college
or collect, and del" might deliver or delay
delicious.
The general public was disconnected by the prac-
tce. Printers and proof readers were driven to des-
peration
Newspaper publishers began to talk things over
agree that the style and usefulness of liner adver
tsing pages being ruined not to mention what
being done to the English language So many papers
have taken definite stand against the abuse, insisting
that ordinary words be spelled fully in liner ads
and abbreviatons be used except such are gen.
orally recognized as legitimate.
''The success Of want ads explains representa-
tive newspaper depends on immediate action, and
action only when the ad is easy read and per-
fecy clear. This step became inevitable for the pro-
lection Of readers and advertisers alike and is bound
to be welcomed by both"

INDIAN WOMAN IN
5000 MILE Xix E
FOR $1,000 PRIZE

Rainbow Sistesso, full blooded
Sioux woman, hiker will leave Joliet
Thursday for a 5000 hike to the Pacif-
ic coast and return, touching Port
land oregon; Seattle, Washington;
Oakland and Los Angeles in California,
and number of other important cities.
The project is backed by a number of
Chicago business men who promised
Rainbow $1,000 dollar a mile-if she
completes the jaunt in six months or
less.
Rainbow took a stroll from Joliet
to Chicago, mere Sc miles, last week,
and while in this city dropped into the
Office of THE CHICAGO WHIP foor a
brief visit. She saio she had been
hiking for 3 years and was able to
make 35 to 40 miles per day under Or
binary circumstances. She has liked
across every desert in the country, she
said, and is the only woman ever &c
walk across a desert without lift. Last
year she started from Chicago on a
hike similar to the one she is contem-
plating now, but was forced back by
the fierce electric storms when she had
got as far as Tia Juana.
On all her hikes, Rainbow is ac-
companied by her dog, whose mother
was wolf owned and brought up by
Rainbow herself on the Indian reser-
walton when she was young girl.

HAVE FARE WE'LL
BATTLE; | FINED
Can't Move Away From One
Anct Their Without Having
One Last Clash

The Bosleys and the Hanans, who
have lived antagonistically in adjoin-
ing flats at 2953 Fedora. street, had
new sets of ills to air in Pelin court
Saturday morning before Judge
George Holmes.
The two families, who lose no time
in loving each other, appeared in court
last week with what was hoped would
be final appearance as the Hanans
were preparing to move to a place of
more peace and quiet. The case was
ct that time continued until Saturday
so that the court could be satisfied
they had moved.
More Trouble
But it seemed that there must be
one last neigborly bout before the
Hanans could move. Coming home
after last weeks court session, Elnora
Hoard, married daughter of Annie
Bosley, brought out the monograph
that caused the trouble before and be-
gan playing it for her neiehbor's Will
fcation, it is said. AS Isaac Hanan
demonstrated, Eldora waxed indig-
nant, calling Mr.. Hanan names that
he said should never come from the
mouth of a lady. Judging, by these
names, that she was not so nice, Han
an said that he could, without his con-
science hurting him, hit her on the
jaw, which he did.
Mrs. Bosley, coming upon the scene
of battle at his time, swears that she
heard Grace Hanan yell down from
the second floor: Pop, knock her
tooth down her throat" which Mrs,
Hanan denied.
After the Hanans moved, they say
that the Bosleys went to their new
neighbors at ~ w. 3Oth street, carry
ing tales of the Hanans' undesir
ability.
Dubbed the trouble maker, Elnora
Hoard was fined $40 by the court.

of shooting dice with the proprietor,
and said he wanted to bet 80 cents.
That's not enough" Reed told him.
Agument Starts
Anderson, however, believed that 30
cents was enough to shooot and in
sisted that game be started. When
Reed demonstrated, an argument fol-
lowed. AS Anderson became more
and more heated, he was told to get
out"
Instead of leaving he picked up an
ice pick mad started toward Reed. He
was ovoerpowered4 however, and the
weapon taken from him. He then
