said. Williams lived in the Broad­hurst home.

Also on Wednesday the state o ff­ered testimony tending to show the alleged arrangements made for the murder of Dr. Broadhurst. Two Caldwell used car dealers told of Williams’ Interest in buy­ing air automobile and one said he purchased a car a week be­fore the murder.

Persons closely connected with the trial believe that the state will finish presentation of Its case about Friday and the defense Tuesday or Wednesday of next week. In that case, trial of Will­iams, set for March 10, would have to be postponed.

Earlier In the week the state attempted to prove that Mrs. Broadhurst tried to establish an alibi for Williams to prove that he was not at the scene of the murder when Dr. Broadhurst was slain.

Members of the jury as finally selected last week are Robert L. Ilch of Vale, Earl Flock of Harper, J. C. Olsen of Nyssa, Ed Oakes of Ontario. William R. Morrison of Vale, Torvald Olsen of Nyssa, Mona Davis of Ontario, Ida Walter of Nyssa, Gertrude Blanton of Ont­ario route 1, Van Maltsberger of Ontario. Ernest Adams of Ontario and Sam Taylor of Ontario. Two alternates are Carroll Locey of Ironside and Jonesie D. Scott r f Vale.
