day as the new chairman. That
chapter has already done consider
able work and has voted funds for
the establishment of highway first
aid stations. Rufus Keller is to
make a survey OF possible loca-

Mrs. Chadbourn is to meet with
the Ell Centro chapter board Fri

office of w. w. McEuen at the
Pioneer Title and Trust Co. Hugh
Heating will report on the two
highway first aid stations which
this chapter has established and
plans will be discussed for the an

campaign. Hugh Wilcox, new Scout
executive, was formerly life-saving
chairman for the San Luis Obispo
chapter.
Members of the CaleXico chap
ter board are TO meet with Mrs
Chadbourn on Friday night.
Calipatria, which is a branch
of the Brawley chapter and of
which Mrs. NJ McKendry is chair
man, has done a large amount of
relief work this winter, aiding the
4c00 pea pickers and their fami-
lies left destitute by the freeze.
Recently the chapter sponsored
a play, raising $1O8 to pay off
debts incurred in this relief work.
Since other agencies are ham
ding relief locally, the Ell Centre
chapter has confined it's efforts
to first aid work including the
establishment of highway stations
and to the live saving campaign,
also more than subscribing its
quota in the flood relief campaign.

In VOsper Death

EASTBOURNE, England, April l..
U.P- Beautiful Muriel Oxford, Miss
Britain of 1885" testified at a cor
oner's inquest today that Frank
o. Vosper, 36-year old British play
wright, could not have committed
suicide.
He was happy and cheerful at
her gay champagne party during
the last night aboard the S. S.
Paris a few miles off Plymouth,
England, and there was no quarrel
between him and his friend, Peter
WilleS, son of a well-to-do En- rglish-
man, she said.
There was no reason, she added,
for Vosper to have jumped over
board after leaving the party in
her state room. His body, with
arm broken and leg torn off, was
found nude and battered near here
mdItIl d.
Did he show any jealouSy?"
the coroner asked.
No Miss Oxford replied.
The jury attempted to reach a
verdict as to the cause of VoS-
per's death plunge. but returned
and demanded that the ships cap
tain and steward testify. Then it
adjourned until next Monday.
The mystery deepened as to how
Vosper's body could have drifted
200 miles from the ships position
when marine evidence showed the
drift between March to March
81 accounted for only 100 miles.
