EIGHT PAGES ORANGE COUNTY ARMISTICE DAY PARADE WILL BE 3 MILES LONG Floats And Decorated Cars From Eight Towns Will Be In Procession At Santa Ana Tomorrow. Santa Ana will be the "mecca" tomorrow for a large portion of the population of Orange county, it is expected, following the completion of the plans for the Armistice Day celebration and parade in which practically every town in the county will participate. The parade, which is to be one of the big features of the day, will start promptly at 10:30 o'clock. It will form on West Fourth street in Santa Ana, going east on Fourth street to Garfield street; counter marching street to Broadway, going north on Broadway to Church street, east on Church street to Main street and disbanding.

A large trophy cup will be given by Santa Ana for the largest representation of former service men from any city in the county. ANAHEIM-SANTA ANA COUNCILS APPROVE PLAN FOR SEWERS With the approval last night by the city councils of Anaheim and Santa Ana of the plans for the outfall sewer serving these cities and the agreement stipulating the method of financing the project, only formalities and a period of time lies between the date when the voters of the two cities will oppose or reject the proposed sewer line to the ocean. The proposition, which met with the unanimous approval of the two councils which met in joint session here last night, will be presented to the councils in separate session at their regular meetings tonight for final action. This procedure, it is said, is only a matter of formality and without question the councils will adopt resolutions of intention leading to the adoption of an ordinance within sixty days calling: When the shores crawls forth from intolerance in In the whole impossible to finish insult the intelligence through the United flagrantly fraudulent understanding that That statement Now listen to Advertisers": We more local circulation of any other This unmitigated statements.

Parade Three Miles Long Anaheim, Orange, Fullerton, Huntington Beach, Seal Beach, Newport and Balboa will enter floats and provide other features. No estimate of the number of floats expected is yet available, but it is thought that the parade will be at least three miles long. Out-of-town entrants from the west of the Santa Ana river will enter by way of the Fifth street bridge where they will receive directions to their place in the parade by Legion guards. Entrants from the east and south of the city are to report in the rear of the respective divisions as they enter. Guards will be stationed along all of the principal streets to give directions.

Anaheim Band In Line The third division of the parade with miscellaneous features will be led by H. G. Scott and the Anaheim band. J. C. Metzgar, the Auto Trades band and the Mexican band will be the leaders of the fourth division. This will be composed of public welfare features. Judging stands for newspaper men of Orange county who are being invited to act as judges have been erected at the corner of Fourth and Broadway. Six cups are to be presented. One for each division of the parade. One for the best idea of an entrant and one for the best delegation of a county Legion poet. Cups have been offered by the Chamber of Commerce, Merchants and Manufacturers association, Associated Chambers of Commerce, Roy Peterson, shoe dealer, and William Lorenz, jeweler. Local Plans Announced Chairman Bayliss of the Chamber of Commerce Armistice Day parade committee and Frank Tausch and Fred Gresswell have been putting in several days on the construction of the "City of Anaheim Float," for tomorrow's parade. There will be financing the project, only formalities and a period of time lies between the date when the voters of the two cities will opprove or reject the proposed sewer line to the ocean. The proposition, which met with the unanimous approval of the two councils which met in joint session here last night, will be presented to the councils in separate session at their regular meetings tonight for final action. This procedure, it is said, is only a matter of formality and without question the councils will adopt resolutions of intention leading to the adoption of an ordinance within sixty days calling the bond election. The separate reports of the City Manager O. E. Stewart of Anaheim and City Manager Hoy of Santa Ana and the joint report made by the two men covering the construction of the line from the junction point to the ocean were read and approved without change. The signing of the agreements will take place within a month. BOOTLEGERS PLOTTED DRY AGENTS' DEATH IN NEW YORK NEW YORK, Nov. 10—Evidence that a ring of bootleggers plotted the death of dry agents who have been strangely murdered in New York and vicinity during the last few months, is in the hands of department of justice agents, it was learned today. One of the agents whose death is under investigation was James McGuiness, a nephew of Joseph P. Tu-multy, secretary of former President Wilson. McGuiness was found dead near Bayonne, N.J., nearly a year ago and a suicide verdict was given. The same verdict was rendered in other cases where agents were found shot or hanged. There is reason to believe that the men have been the victims of carefully laid plans of a murder ring, according to Robert P. McCormick, assistant United States district attorney. LOPEZ PLEADS GUILTY TO BURGLARY HERE SEPTEMBER 14 Changing his plea to guilty when he appeared for trial before Judge Williams in the superior court today, Jose Lopez, charged with burglary at Anaheim, asked that he be given probation. Lopez was taken when he entered the house of Alfred Morrison, 304 Philadelphia street, September 14. He was represented by Attorney A. E. Koepsel. ANAHEIM WOMEN DIVORCE ON GO OF CRUEE Two husbands and taken the initiative in for the best idea of an entrant and one for the best delegation of a county Logon poct. Cups have been offered by the Chamber of Commerce, Merchants and Manufacturers association, Associated Chambers of Commerce, Roy Peterson, shoe dealer, and William Lorenz, jeweler. Local Plans Announced Chairman Bayliss of the Chamber of Commerce Armistice Day parade committee and Frank Tausch and Fred Gresswell have been putting in several days on the construction of the "City of Anaheim Float," for tomorrow's parade. There will be several surprisingly good local entries under the float classification, besides industrial, representing the varied resources of these regions, it is said. The committee desires to warn all local entries to be in place on East Broadway before 8:45, as the line will move as near that time as possible. The parade starts at Santa Ana punctually at 10:30 and in order to get the Anaheim division properly classified at the Fifth street bridge, entering Santa Ana, the line must move from here before 9 o'clock. At East Broadway and South Los Angeles streets, Mr. Bayliss and his aides will meet the cars and see that they fall into the proper sections. It is especially emphasized that all vehicles containing flags and bunting or other interesting decorations will be welcome in the line. All business entries should carry a sign stating the name of the firm and the business, but no other advertising will be permitted by the Santa Ana marshals. COUNTY POLICE HUNT AUTO STOLEN HERE LAST NIGHT Officers throughout Southern California were today warned to be on the watch for a Chevrolet touring car, stolen from in front of the Catholic church of Anaheim last night. The car, which is registered in the name of Mrs. A. J. Yorker, was taken between the hours of 7:30 and 9 o'clock last night. A boy's blue overcoat and the tools and supplies of a piano tuner were in the car when it was taken. Only mortals and blackberries are green when they are red. TO BURGLARY HERE SEPTEMBER 14 Changing his plea to guilty when he appeared for trial before Judge Williams in the superior court today, Jose Lopez, charged with burglary at Anaheim, asked that he be given probation. Lopez was taken when he entered the house of Alfred Morrison, 304 Philadelphia street, September 14. He was represented by Attorney A. E. Koepsel. BEBONAIR AIR LEAVES BLUEBEARD OF FRANCE DURING TRIAL VERSAILLES, France, Nov. 10—The debonair air which "Bluebeard" Landru had borne through the first three sessions of his trial for the alleged murder of ten women and a boy was missing when the court opened today. The defendant's clashes with the prosecution's initial witnesses late yesterday had left their mark on him. He was haggard and wan in appearance and subdued in manner. Relation by a witness of a dream in which Madame Cuchot, the first of the Don Juan's 285 finaces, appeared with her throat slashed made a deep impression upon him. Illinoisans Send Out Call For State Picnic The loyal Illinoisans of all Southern California are sending out this final call for all the Suckers, both resident and tourists, to join in the big final rally of the year in Sycamore Grove Park, Los Angeles, all day Saturday. There will be county registers, hot coffee, badges and program. Chajman H, J. Brubaker will preside and will lead the singing. Everyone will take basket picnic dinner. All the local Illinois societies of Anaheim, Los Angeles, Long Beach, and Paadena will join in making it a great day. Tourists will be especially welcome. ANAHEIM WOMAN DIVORCE ON GOOD CRUE Two husbands and two taken the initiative in suits in the superior courts are Elmer D. Linton and James E. Angeles. The wife is Todd of Anaheim. Mrs. Todd charges with extreme cruelty that on at least two occured her until she fell another occasion she kicked their minor child. According to the case couple were married in August 4, 1920, and separated 7, 1921. The community set at approximately $110. Mrs. Todd asks that she $100 a month alimony fees and a division of property. Nichols and Cooper say that he was marryngelles in 1912 and that sent him in January are no children and that munity property.

Being blind is a greater than it was a few years ANAHEIM DAILY HERALD ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1921. The "Plain Liar" When the shades of night fall a crumpled, shriveled, hypocritical spectre crawls forth from the sepulcher of bigoted journalism, carrying the creed of intolerance in one skeleton hand and a grenade of poison gas in the other. In the whole field of American journalism, search where you may, it is impossible to find a prototype of this impudent specimen which dares to insult the intelligence of the whole business world—which dares to go through the United States mail carrying at the top of its front page this flagrantly fraudulent statement: "This paper accepts all advertising on the understanding that its circulation equals any three others in the field." That statement is for "Home Consumption." Now listen to what the Plain Dealer sends through the mail to "Foreign Advertisers": We accept all advertising with the guarantee that we have more local circulation in northern Orange county than the combined circulation of any other three publications, including two dailies. This unmitigated liar attempts to get business by obviously fraudulent statements. Recovery for every dollar spent in advertising on this lying statement of the Plain Dealer could be made, but advertisers probably refrain from taking such action because they know they would have to take the 36 cents worth of equipment away from the Plain Dealer and that it wouldn't bring over 8 cents as junk! We have before us the issue of the Plain Dealer of October 11—the day that the Plain Dealer swore they had printed the regular sworn statement of circulation that all newspapers are required to make to the federal government showing the average circulation of the newspaper for the preceding six months of publication. We have searched in vain through this issue—October 11—to find the statement of the Plain Dealer and we have searched in vain. We have prosecuted a fruitless search everywhere to find the vagrant statement. We have come to the conclusion that in the eyes of the law—there is no Plain Dealer—there is no sich animile! We can come to the only one possible conclusion—that the Plain Dealer does not deal very plainly with the public; that it seeks to deceive the public by hiding its decrepit condition—its graveyard aspect—its utter lack of common journalistic honesty. The law compelling the publication of the circulation of newspapers was designed to protect the public against the fraudulent circulation statements of unscrupulous newspapers. There is no reason why COUNTY TOWNS GREET CARAVAN OF CONVENTION VISITORS TODAY Five Hundred Automobiles In Sunday School Parade Procession There. Fullerton Pupils Welcome Five hundred decorated automobiles filled with delegates and visitors to the thirty-second annual Southern California Sunday School Association convention, which closes here at 2 o'clock this afternoon, formed a procession and started on parade through Orange County. Mayor Stark led the procession with the automobiles from Santa Ana, Fullerton, Orange, Tustin, Garden Grove, Yorba Linda, Placentia, Brea, La Habra, Anaheim and Los Alamitos following his car. Los Alamitos asked to be placed at the rear of the parade with a car carrying a banner lettered "Last and least, but not discouraged." We have searched in vain through this issue—October 11—to find the statement of the Plain Dealer and we have searched in vain. We have prosecuted a fruitless search everywhere to find the vagrant statement. We have come to the conclusion that in the eyes of the law—there is no Plain Dealer—there is no such animilie! We can come to the only one possible conclusion—that the Plain Dealer does not deal very plainly with the public; that it seeks to deceive the public by hiding its decrepit condition—its graveyard aspect—its utter lack of common journalistic honesty. The law compelling the publication of the circulation of newspapers was designed to protect the public against the fraudulent circulation statements of unscrupulous newspapers. There is no reason why any honest newspaper should not make this statement. There is no course one very plain reason why the other type of newspaper schemes to evade this law—they have not the net paid circulation upon the strength of which they solicit the advertising of the business world. The Plain Dealer presented a ludicrous position in its issue of November 8. At the top of the front page we read: "This paper accepts all advertising on the understanding that its circulation equals any three others in the field." Then it takes a fall to the bottom of the page and whines that "it is the only daily with an actual bona fide circulation at the present in excess of 2600 subscribers." Quite a big drop—quite a humiliating confession! Both statements are deliberate lies! The Anaheim Daily Herald with a circulation of 3026 leads all other daily newspapers in northern Orange county, including the Plain Dealer, which admits in big black figures on its own front page that it has only 2600 circulation. Unknown Mother Claims Dead Hero As Her Son WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.—Shivering a bit beneath a thin shawl, she had waited long before the capitol. She was old and gray and bent. She was an unknown mother, come in from a small town quite distant that she might meet her boy, back after weary months from France. It was her boy who lay there in the rotunda—the unknown soldier back from France, honored and sung by the nation. She typified a score of mothers who were here today to honor the unkown soldier, each believing it was "her boy." She fumbled a little package as she waited—just a wisp of a bouquet of late fall flowers which she wished to mingle with the stately wreaths and pretentious bouquets from richer folk. "They say he's an unknown soldier," she told another woman in the waiting line. "He's not unknown; I'm sure he's my boy. And, I'm so proud. Just think, the whole country has a part in his funeral. "I had prayed and prayed for him," she said. "I knew he couldn't come home, because they didn't know who he was. But a miracle has happened, and he's back." The unknown mother strained her eyes for the signal that would admit her and other visitors to the capitol. Under the dome of the capitol—a spot reserved only for America's greatest—the body will lie in state until tomorrow, morning. It was carried there late yesterday from Admiral Dewey's ship, the Olympia, which brought it from France. Tomorrow the nation will observe armistice day by according highest honors to the unknown.

Mayor Stark led the procession with the automobiles from Santa Ana, Fullerton, Orange, Tustin, Garden Grove, Yorba Linda, Placentia, Brea, La Habra, Anaheim and Los Alamitos following his car. Los Alamitos asked to be placed at the rear of the parade with a car carrying a banner lettered "Last and least, but not discouraged." At Garden Grove, the delegates and friends were met with greetings from the business men of that town. In Santa Ana, at the Fifth street crossing, Mayor Mitchell greeted the Sunday school workers. Then the procession was escorted through Santa Ana by the mayor and his mounted police and then continued to Tustin, Orange, Olive, Yorba, Placentia, Richfield and to Fullerton. passing through that town_by high school. Pupils Welcome Parade There they were greeted with the entire active organizations of the school with bouquets, songs and yellis. The athletic girls, dressed in costume with tennis rackets and basket balls the Hi-Y boys, Boy Scouts, and other organizations gave a rally greeting the workers as they passed by the school. The procession continued its way from Fullerton back to Anaheim where it disbanded. At the start and finish Police Officer Andrade, assisted by two mounted police, helped the parade committee. Godber Elected President The second day of the convention of Sunday School workers opened this morning with the largest and best praise song service held during the convention. After the prayer, the business session of the morning was held. H. H. Godber was re-elected president. Other officers elected were: First vice-president, W. R. Litchenberg; second vice-president, E. l. Wightman; secretary, C. H. Parsons; treasurer, W. G. Cline. The delegates passed a resolution authorizing the sending of a telegram to congress favoring the passing of the Sterling-Towner bill which provides for better educational department. The business session was followed with an address by Rev. C. A. Cole of Glendale on "The Minister and Religious Education." Rev. Cole said that the minister should be as much a part of the Sunday school as of the church, and that a children's service should be held at least once a month. J. Shreve Durham, superintendent of the Home Visitation Department, spoke on the "Evangelism of the Church School." Mr. Durham was formerly a business man and said that during time he used his influence in the everyday life of his employees. An open forum was held at 11 o'clock. This was followed by an ad-clock. ANAHEIM WOMAN ASKS DIVORCE ON GROUNDS OF CRUELTY Two husbands and one wife have taken the initiative in filing divorce suits in the superior court. The husbands are Elmer D. Nichols of Fullerton and James E. Cooper of Los Angeles. The wife is Mrs. Phoebe Todd of Anaheim. Mrs. Todd charges her husband with extreme cruelty. She asserts that on at least two occasions he choked her until she fell in a faint. On another occasion she claims that he kicked their minor child in the face. According to the complaint, the couple were married in Anaheim August 1, 1920, and separated November 7, 1921. The community property is set at approximately $1000. Mrs. Todd asks that she be awarded $100 a month alimony, $250 attorney fees and a division of the community property. Nichols and Cooper are suing on the grounds of desertion. Nichols says that he was married in Los Angeles in 1912 and that his wife deserted him in January, 1920. There are no children and there is no community property. Man Arrested Second Time On Felony Charge Arrested for the second time on a felony charge, G. W. Brophy, who was sentenced to a term in Ione from Santa Ana on the charge of robbing a filling station at San Juan Capistrano about two years ago, is held in Los Angeles today on a charge of passing fictitious checks. Brophy in company with Preston C. Lamb, was convicted on the charge of robbing the filling station and holding up the man in charge. Brophy was released from lone probation and his latest offense, it is thought, will result more seriously for him as he is now 21 years old. Being blind is a greater affliction than it was a few years ago. Family Quarrel Puts Hubby in Jail for Night Family difficulties between Joe Aguilar and his wife, who reside in Placentia, resulted in the head of the house spending the night in the county jail last night. Mrs. Susan Aguilar today swore out a complaint charging her husband with assault and battery. When her husband attempted to beat her, Mrs. Aguilar says, she called the sheriff's office and Undersheriff E. E. French investigated. In her wrath, Mrs. Aguilar disclosed the hiding place of her husband's stock of liquor, asserting that he was a bootleger. Investigation revealed an empty gallon bottle, which officers think might have contained liquor. WILLIAM BUSH WILL BE HOST AND GUEST AT SHRINERS' DINNER William E. Bush, past potentate of Al Malaikah temple, Los Angeles, will be both host and honor guest at a steak dinner of the Orange County Shrine Club at Orange county park Monday night. The invitation to the dinner was originally proffered to Mr. Bush by the Shrine Club, but he insisted on providing the steaks and, consequently, will be both host and guest. The dinner will be served at 5:30 o'clock and will be attended by nearly all of the Anaheim members of the Shrine club. Orange Man Acquitted Of Statutory Offense William Reich, held on a charge of a statutory offense against a 5-year-old girl at Orange, was declared not guilty of the charge against him by the jury after 35 minutes deliberation yesterday afternoon. Otto Sanaker defended Reich. FARMERS OF NATION TO SELL STOCK ON COOPERATIVE BASIS CHICAGO, Nov. 10.—Farmers today planned to market their own livestock on a co-operative basis. Every livestock producing section was represented in a conference which met here today at the call of the American Farm Bureau Federation to ratify a co-operative marketing plan drawn up by the federation's committee of fifteen. According to J. R. Howard, president of the federation, the committee report includes: Provision to give the farmer something to say about the distribution of his stock. Plans for a farmer-owned and controlled livestock commission at the stockyards. Methods of orderly marketing of livestock, so as to prevent gluts on the market and consequent sharp declines in prices. "The farmers of the nation have determined to market their own live stock on a co-operative basis," said Howard. "Our plan represents the natural outgrowth of the co-operative livestock shipping association movement in America."

E. Smith for the Anaheim former service men is the original battle flag of the 364th infantry. This flag was presented to the regiment by the Los Angeles chapter of the Red Cross and was carried through all the engagements in which the 364th took part. It was on the battle fields of the Argonne, St. Mihiel, Ypres Leyes in Belgium and is said to be the first American flag planted on German soil. WORK OF RED CROSS SAVES BABIES' LIVES SAYS MRS. EVA BOYD The Red Cross believes that there is work to be done here at home as well as abroad in combating misery, sickness and disease. As evidence of this belief thirty-five health centers have been established in the Pacific division in the last two years to aid in the nation-wide fight to reduce unnecessary sickness, according to the statement made today by Mrs. Eva Boyd, local secretary. "In addition to these centers many other chapters are contributing some form of health service to their communities, such as a dental clinic, a loan closet, or the transportation or salary of a public health nurse," said Bryan suggests cancellation of debts to bring peace to world Success Of Disarmament Conference Depends On Purpose Of Delegates In Coming To United States. BY WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN (Copyright 1921 by the United Press) —WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.—The conference which is about to assemble may prove to be the most important gathering in centuries, or it may bring the greatest disappointment experienced in generations. It all depends upon the real purpose of the actors—a purpose that can only be revealed by acts. If the delegates believe universal and perpetual peace possible, they will try to secure it; if not they will not attempt anything of real and permanent importance. It is a conference from which any WASHINGTON, Nov. 10—The conference which is about to assemble may prove to be the most important gathering in centuries, or it may bring the greatest disappointment experienced in generations. It all depends upon the real purpose of the actors—a purpose that can only be revealed by acts. If the delegates believe universal and perpetual peace possible, they will try to secure it; if not they will not attempt anything of real and permanent importance. It is a conference from which anyone of the nations may emerge the hero. The United States may surprise the world by offering so much that the other nations will be compelled to accept the offer and end war. Nations May Lead Way Japan may announce a willingness to go so far as to insure the success of the conference. Great Britain may step to the front and settle discussion by a proposition which will leave the other nations no alternative but to accept. France may find in disarmament her greatest security, and point the way to world peace. Who will win the capital prize, which in this case will be the plaudits of the world and the gratitude of prosperity? U. S. In Best Position The United States has the best position. She extends the invitation and has the first move. More than that, her traditional policy has been to rely upon her pacifist intentions rather than upon fleets and armies. In the present instances, she has a mighty asset in the debts due her. Suppose the United States were to step forward and say: "We are willing to pay ten billions for the progressive disarmament of the world, begun at once and continued until the navies are no larger than necessary to police the seas and armies no larger than necessary to preserve peace on land; could the nations refuse the offer? Cancellation Of Debts Urged. Ten billions of debt cancelled on such conditions would encable the allies and their enemies to get together and so distribute the sums as to bring a large measure of financial relief to every nation involved in the war, and this relief would restore friendly relations and permit a disarmament otherwise impossible. The cancellation of this debt, added to the reduction of military and naval expenses, would give the world a new birth and go far towards restoring normal conditions in business. Would Be Saving Could the United States afford it? A deduction of one half in her military and naval appropriations would enable her to save the amount in less than twenty years; a reduction of three fourths in army and navy expenses would enable her to save the amount in less than fifteen years. It would be TICKET SALE FOR ELKS' SHOW OPENS WITH RUSH TODAY The ticket sale for "Dolly Dimples," perhaps the biggest extravaganza ever played in Anaheim, opened this morning at Heying's Pharmacy with an advance demand unequalled by any previous performance and one that assures a capacity house at the California theater Monday night. Contrary to reports, tickets for the show will not be mailed to members of the Elks lodge, but these persons will be required to call at the pharmacy for their tickets or purchase them from sellers elsewhere. Several of the picturesque bits of the musical comedy will be furnished by the "Summer Boys and Girls." Members of this chorus are: Marion Wallace, Elsie Schellens, Dorothy Schellens, Wilhelmine Zitzmann, Mildred Larsen, Mrs. Harry D. Riley, Clem Staples, Evan Alsip, Ira Chandler, A. E. Ganson, Pat Adams and DeWitt Taggart. Adding to the galaxy of the musical offering will be solo dances by little Miss Virginia Swope and LaVern Dugas. Proceeds from the show will be added to the Elks' Christmas fund. Returns Of Presidential Burned By Clerk Backs In accord with the requirements of the federal law returns of the last presidential election were burned today at the order of County Clerk J. M. Backs. These returns are required to be kept for one year after the date of the election at which time they must be destroyed. Turner, sentenced to a term of nine months for smuggling aliens into the United States; Julius Blohm, in default of a fine of $300 for transporting liquor; Joseph Ringlust, eighty days and a fine of $300 for manufacturing intoxicating liquors; W. C. Beebe, jailed in default of a $350 fine for transporting liquor. All of the federal prisoners received were sentenced by Federal Judge Oscar A. Trippet of Los Angeles. Because of the congested ordination of the Los Angeles county jail the prisoners are being distributed to county jails throughout Southern California. Would Be Saving Could the United States afford it? A deduction of one half in her military and naval appropriations would enable her to save the amount in less than twenty years; a reduction of three fourths in army and navy expenses would enable her to save the amount in less than fifteen years. It would be difficult for the debtor nations to pay the sum and the obligation to pay it is made the basis for indemnities which, however just, threaten the amity of Europe for generations, and thus furnish an excuse for military and naval expenditures scarcely burdensome than the indemnities. Would the American people support such a proposition? Why not? They are sentimental; they spent over thirty billions to end war by means of war; would they not spend ten billions to end war by peaceful means? And besides the American people are practical. If they can save enough on military and naval appropriation fifteen or twenty years to compensate them for giving up the debt, why should they spend two or three times that sum on army and navy appropriations. Two Mules And Horse Held At Villa Park One black mule, one sorrel mule and one roan horse are being held at the Conger Thompson ranch at Villa Park, according to a report at the sheriff's office today. The animals strayed on to the ranch and are being held until the owner comes to clem them. There is no harness or other marks of identification on the animals. Balboa Workman Hurt As Steam Pipe Bursts Clarence Watson, 33, of Balboa, was being treated at the Community hospital today for injuries received when a steam pipe burst on the dredger on which he was working in Newport Harbor last night. Watson was badly burned about the face and hands by steam. The dredger on which he is employed is owned by the Los Angeles Dredging Company and is engaged in deepening the channel at the entrance to Newport Harbor.
