IN EVIDENCE IN
KIDNAP TRIAL;
This Virtually Nullifies
Minor Victories for
Mrs. Valley, Tuesday

TACOMA, Wash, July TO-
(UP).-The second alleged con-
fession made by Margaret Thulin
Valley to federal agents, admit
ting that she was in the automo-
bile that carried kidnapped George
Weyerhaeuser, 9, into Idaho, was
read into evidence at her trial on
Lindbergh Act charges yesterday.
The confession also admitted
that she drove William Mahan's
car to the ransom payment rem
devious at which Georges father
handed over 100000 for release
of his son.
The confession-which the de-
Tense was expected to repudiate-
virtually nullified two minor VIC
tories.
One of these care when Federal
Judge E. E. Cushman upheld a de-
Tense objection to a statement
Harmon Valley made to his wife
in the presence of officers shortly
after their arrest in Salt Lake
City. The other was when Judge
Cushman refused to admit as ext
dence a road map folder on which
Valley was alleged to have marked
towns in Idaho to which the Wa
legs and Mahan transported the
boy.
To obtain a conviction under
the Lindbergh law the govern
ment must prove that George was
carried across a state line. Valley
will be brought into the courtroom
today, Chief Defense Counsel Jno.
F. Dore announced after a confer
ence with U. S. Prosecutor ].
Charles Dennis and Judge Cush-
man, who agreed to grant a writ
of habeas corpus. Valley will be
brought from Mcneil Island,
across Puget Sound, to testify for
his 19-year-old wife. He is serv-
ing a 45-year term for his plea of
guilty to the abduction.

swept away in the renewed rush
of flood waters. -,
Horneli was threatened with
higher flood levels due to water
sweeping down from Airport.
Other cities seriously affected
with new floods were Hammonds-
port, Bath, Burdett and Wayland.
At Hammondsport villagers
were hurriedly ordered to aban-
don their homes as new flood wat
ers poured into the valley.
Swollen again to flood tides,
the Cohocton river poured swirl
ing currents through Wayland,
carrying hundreds of tons of
water down on Bath, where the
situation was again feared criti-
cal.

PROFESSOR TODD LEAVES

Next Sunday will see the departure
from FL Centre of one of its pioneer cit
liens, who, in his own quiet way, has
contributed much to the artistic develop
ment OF this community-Professo Ell
mer A. Todd, for % years a teacher of
music here
Ell Centre wasn't much of town in
I9l2 when Professor Todd located here
and sought to impart some of his ma
tlonally recognized musical ability to Ell
Centro youngsters. Throughout the years
hundreds of boys and girls were sent to
MN Tor their musical education. Many
OF them, now grown men and women,
feel that they are indebted to him far
beyond any compensation ever paid him
Tor the instruction he impaired to them,
and over and above this for the encour-
agement he held out to them in an effort
to develop their musical talents and the
patience with which he helped them ov-
ercome the obstacles they encountered.
Such things can never be adequately
paid In dollars and cents.
True to the instructive desire of the
real artist to develop talent wherever he
believes it exists, Professor Todd has on
numerous occasions given instruction
without compensation, refusing to decree
that the inability of a family to pay
should deprive one possessing talent
from developing it.
From time to time throughout the
years he has brought in outside artists,
giving music lovers of El Centre an op-
portunity to hear and enjoy the work Of
recognized leaders in the field of music,
often at personal expense to himself, for
which he has felt amply repaid by the
appreciation of those attending such
concerts.
FL Centre has indeed been fortunate
in having man of Professor Todd
high calibre and ability actively engaged
in instructing the younger generation
throughout the years The best proof
of his success is not to be seen in mater
ial evidence but in the love and real af-
fection his pupils have for him and the
universal esteem in which he is held by
his fellow residents of this city.
Closely cooperating with Professor
Todd, shielding the artist from the null
titude of distracting details which would
otherwise conflict with his calling, Mrs.
Todd has also played a most important
part in his success in Ell Centro. To-
gether they have done much for Ell Gen.
tro and El Centre owes them much. They
have given a long period of their lives
to this community, and though they
might have had greater material reward
elsewhere, they have found full salts
faction in the field of their desire.
They leave Ell Centro with the high
regard of a large group of sincere
friends, who wish them we'll in their
new location and hope that through the
years to come they will be able to re-
turn occasionally to the city they have
called "home" for so long. 1t is unna-
tural to think of musical season here
without hearing Professor Todd and we

Other times he hears me coming
after him and he starts running
and hopping and so he gets away.
But now he can't hear me and I'll
catch him."
So after Uncle Wiggily with his
ears stopped against noise began
hopping over the fields and through
the woods, the Bob Cat went sneak
ing after him, getting closer and
closer. The bunny gentleman didn't
hear the Bad Chap.
Turtle to Rescue
But a friend of his, the mud tur-
tie gentleman, crawling in the
grass. first saw Uncle Wiggily hop
past and then the turtle saw the
Bob Cat sneaking along. The tur-
tie knew his rabbit friend was in
danger SO he called to him:
Uncle Wiggily! Uncle Wiggily!
Look out Danger is comingi"
But because of the cotton in his
ears, Uncle Wiggily didn't hear the
voice Of the turtle and he didn't
hear the Bob Cat sneaking after
him.
The Bob Cat, with no cotton in
his ears, heard what the turtle said
and he was angry.
You stop telling Uncle Wiggily
I'm after him!" snarled the Bad
Chap. You stop it,"
mol MOI" said the turle, I'll
warn him of danger" He called
more loudly, but the rabbit couldn't
hear him.
Then the angry Bob Cat tried to
scratch and bite the turtle, but the
turtle pulled his head, legs and tail
inside his shell and closed himself
UP so tightly the Bob Cat couldn't
do him any harm.
I'll catch you and scratch you
some other time, snarled the Bob
Cat when he found how hard was
the turtles shell. Just now I'm
going after Unce Wiggilyl" Once
more he sneaked after the rabbit.
Uncle Wiggily, still hearing moth
ing, was hopping along with the
cotton in his ears. When he reach
ed the middle of a field and was
looking around for an adventure,
all of a sudden a humming bird
saw some white cotton sticking out
Of the rabbits left ear.
Humming Bird Gets Cotton
That's just what l need for my
nest" said the humming bird. MY
wife was saying this morning that
some of the lining was out Of our
nest and she asked me to find some
cotton to put in place of it. I guess
Uncle Wiggily has more cotton in
Imperial Valley press., 1935-07-02
UNCLE WIGGHY AND THE
HUAIMING BIRD

Uncle Wiggily's wife and Nurse
Jane Fuzzy Wuzzy were not the
only ones who saw the rabbit gen.
tleman take cotton from a milk
weed pod to stuff in his ears, as I
told you last night. Uncle Wiggily
put the cotton in his ears to prac-
tice for quietneSs so he would be
ready for Fourth of July. He didn't
want TO hear the bang bang noises.
Some one else who saw Uncle
Wiggily stuff cotton in his ears was
the Bob Cat, one of the three Bad
Chaps always trying to catch the
rabbit gentleman
"Oh, ho!' said the Bob Cat TO
himself as, hiding in the grass near
the milkweed plant, he saw Uncle
Wiggily stuffing the cotton in his
ears. oh. no! This will give me
a good chance 10 caUch that rabbit
With the cotton in his ears he can't
hear me sneaking up behind him.
