He sat solemnly while Judge I I Baltzell refused a new trial and j .urest of judgment. In contrast to Hale was William II Parkhurst, former police captain, 1 1 who refused to appeal his sentence. Attorney Albert Needham spoke briefly of Parkhurst’s char- 1 acter and Judge Baltzell answered 'hat he was the least guilty of the group. Appeals were granted all de- ] fendan's except Johnson and Parkhurst, who did not ask for i them. Pat k hurst began serving his sentence immediately. TRADITION IS CARRIED OUT (CONTINUED FROM PACE ONE) a man 1,200 feet into the pit to recover the bodies. The task was a : considerable one, since heat and smoke and molten lava, the height I from which operations must be ! carried on. and the sharp rocks ; made the slightest mishap perilous. I National Park Superintendent, Leavitt awaited word from Washington. D.C., as to whether his men] should carry on the recovery at-1 I tempt. The Prater is located in a , national park and is under federal i administration. The bodies were sighted by park i angers with the aid of powerful ] binoculars. Miss Enos, clad in a ! red kimona. was seen on a ledge about 900 feet below the crater's rim. while Nunes' body lay sprawl- : ed on a heap of rocks just above I her. The youthful islander had taken ■ the girl from her home this morni ing after shooting her sister, Mrs. ‘ Manuel Furtado. through the hand : when the sister attempted to re-] i s.ist his commands to Margaret that Ishe follow him. Waving a revolver. Nunes com--1 polled the young girl to leave the ; house with him. Authorities said there was a i possibility the girl had been fatally wounded by the shot which pierced her sister's hand, although it was presumed Nunes killed her as they sat in his automobile on the \ ! crater's edge. Kl aneau is famed in island history! and legend as the home of Madarii Pele, goddess of fire. Many stories are told of the custom of j sacrifices being thrown into the , smoking pit, known as Alemaumau. ; Natives formerly would hurl 1 themselves into the smoking, rocky j crater as a gesture of defiance ) against a fate that condemned j them to unrequited love, as in the famed stage play. "The Bird of Paradise." For years no native would approach the volcano’s rim without first offering a sacrifice of Ohelo ! berries. FLOOD WATERS HIT OKLAHOMA CONTINUED FROM PAGE < NE letary of Lieut.

At 6:30 a. m. the North Canadian j river had spi led over its banks and ; was rampaging through part of the I Industrial section of the city. A j concrete bridge was washed out j and water was coursing across a railroad track. Trusties were released from the county jail to help man lifeboats plying about in the "squatter sec- I tions.” Sheriff Stanley Rogers said a complete evacuation of low lying areas was necessary. One frantic call said houses were floating down the river. Railroad officials reported none of their Jines had been washed out in any part of the state by the last night's storm.
