Police Arrest Ex-Convict On Suspicion of Bribery
by Joe Digles
Ken Flower, Trojan basketball forward, is today being hailed the nation over for breaking up one of the biggest “fix” attempts ever to strike on the Pacific Coast.
Quick thinking and courageous action on the part of the 19-year-old player j brought about the booking of Albert R. Scroggins, 31, Saturday on suspicion of offering Flower a bribe in connection with that night's SC- i UCLA game.
Scroggins, who claims to have j been arrested 40 times, is being held by police on $50,000 bail.

Picture History The picture, which is dated 1637, IP was for more than a century in the " ' possession of a noble German family. In donating the painting, Mrs. Fisher said, “The German family that possessed this great piece of art was forced to sell it to obtain funds."’
The painting is in excellent conidi tion and has been certified as an I authentic Van Goyen by Wilhelm R. Valentiner, an expert in' the I field of Dutch and Flemish painting.
Speakig of the picture Valen-j tiner said, “’This painting actually j started the impressionistic school I in Holland.
