Most die overnight in a meadow and the father blames the boy. Loren runs away, meeting wanted robber Haley. Toxic plant news plus an arrest assist improves matters. She was born one of seven children as Betty Louise Foss in Alameda, California, to Harry Wilbur Webb Foss (1894-1981), and his wife Catherine Bofinger Foss (1896-1918), on May 28, 1918. Shortly thereafter, her mother sadly died during the Spanish flu epidemic that was ravaging the world at the time. Her father had a nervous breakdown, and she was passed around from relative to relative until she was eventually placed into an orphanage in San Francisco, California. She was later adopted by Scottish immigrants William Harrower (1878-1947), and his wife Jessica Glane "Jessie" Harrower (1884-1972), and given the name Elizabeth Louise Harrower. She was raised in Berkeley, California, and in Los Angeles, California, and educated locally, until her adoptive father's salary was cut in half due to The Great Depression of the 1930s. In turn, her adoptive mother took her to Hollywood, California, to begin an acting career. Using her real name of Betty Foss and other identities to try and secure acting jobs, she finally decided to use her adoptive name of Elizabeth Harrower, and she gradually found acting jobs.
