Boyer Tues- I day. Lans was arrested-about a ^week ago on a warrant sworn out by his wite charging non-support. A few days ago Lans appeared be- i fore Justice Boyer and asked for a • subpoena blank. He was not sure of ' the names of the persons he wished . to subpoena as witnesses, and as a matter of convenience. Justice Boyer j left the space in the subpoena blank for Lans to fill in. About a month ago the 8-year-old Lans boy was taken from the parents by officers of the juvenile court and placed in the Glenwood school for boys. Both father and mother were found to be unfit persons to care for their offspring. With the blank suo- poeha Lans thought of a scheme which would give the son into his I custody for a short time.
