GIGANTIC HUMANS
 INHABITED COAST
Bones Found in California Lead
 to "Giant'' Theory

Stockton, Cal, June s (UP)-The theory that a race of giant men once inhabit the San Joaquin Valley, ad- vanced by Dr. J. kroeck, professor of biology at the College of the Pa cific. now is supported by new evil dence.
 Two railway employees. Frank Fesrrara and Earl Cusilidge, have revealed the discovery of a cavern in Calaveras county filtered with the remains of more than 200 skel- etons, the bones of which are of un- usual size.
 F'esrrara and Cusilidge said that skulls found in the cavern were much larger than those of the pres ent day race. They said that jaw bones were twice the size of a nor mal mans and that rib formations were nearly the size of steers. | The men noted one peculiar thing-that leg bones were much smaller than those of the man of today. Dr. kroeck believes that bones of the giants and those of race of diminutives' have be- come mixed.
 | That the ancient people, no mat ter what their stature was. were accomplished artisans, is proven by a stone bowl discovered in the cav ern.
 The bowl is of granite. five in- ches in depth and 14 inches in di- ameter, and is said 10 be far su- perior in workmanship to any of the known Indian tribes.

New York, June s R-A new chapter in the romantic lore of Broadway was revealed today by friends of a, former dance hall host eas, now the wife of A. R. Grau- stein, multi-millionaire head of the International Paper and Power company.
 When Grausteins marriage at Fl PaSo, Texas March IA, was an- nounced, the bride was identified merely as ''the former Claire Pat ton" of that city.
 Friends Recall Affair
 Former associates at Roseland dance hz11 recalled the meeting Of the paper and power magnate and his future bride on the dance floor and the decided preference which the wealthy patron displayed for Miss Patton as partner.
 Miss Elizabeth Cowley. head hos.- ess. who introduced the couple, said:
 ''Of course the girls meet and dance with so many persons that it's hard to remember faces. But when a man comes back and back again, then the girls success IS

the bones were preserved, for they apparently date back to the time when this section of California was the coast line, judging from shell fish remains found with them.
 Fesrrara and Cuslidge were hunt ing when they discovered the cav ern. They came across a small hole in the side of a hill. Dropping peb- ble in the opening, they found it took eight seconds to hit the bot tom.
 Later they returned to the hole, bringing with them long length of rope They widened the open ing and lowered themselves to a point approximately 60 feet under ground. There they found great chamber, 400 feet in length and nearly 200 feet in width.
 Using flashlights the men ex- plored the covern and discovered numerous of the bones. They found another cavern, 156 feet below the first one. This they also explored and there again they found evidence of a race of giants.
 According to the men. another caveren exists at a lower level. They were unable to descend to it, how ever, as a passageway was blocked by large boulders.
 The explorers brought back one large jaw bone and a part of huge skull, a thigh bone and half of a stone bowl as specimens. They said that most of the bones crumbled when touched.

Denver. Colo. June s tPt-six of the 26 residents of Leadville, Colo, who were indicted by federal grand jury last winter on charges of conspiracy to violate the prohibition law after the only malor dry raid in the mining towns turbulent his tory, were convicted by a federal court jury last night.
 Night Police Captain Yammick and City Councilman William F.. Lapin. two of the six officials of the town named in the indictments, were among those convicted.
 Three Die Before Trial
 Seventeen of the defendants in the case were dismissed during the trial because of insufficient evidence and three of those indicted, includ- ing R. J. Mcdonald, died before the case reached court.
 Thus ended. temporarily at least the "Leadville liquor case" which. because of the ramifications and the history of the town, had attracted widespread attention.
 Leadville, founded overnight when two prospectors found silver on it's site. went through it's early history with only ten commandments and an extra one which forbade claim jumping, as its laws. and federal prohibition agents who raided the once worlds greatest silver camp, asserted that while more laws might have been added to the town's s code since that time, prohibition laws were not among them.
 Ever famous for its saloon row along Harrison avenue, in the rough and tumble days of sudden riches and equally sudden death. the town had made second bid for Yame, they said, for the quality and quan- tity. particularly quantity, of its moonshine.
 Protection Money Paid
 The agents further charged that the town officials not only Winked at the Jaw violations but particpat- ed in hem to the extent of charg- ing for~~'protection" which mon y
