California Turns Down Harvard Football Offer BERKELEY, Cal., Dec. 21. California today announced it would be unable to accept the offer of Harvarr for a football date at Cambridge October 28, 1922. The long trip east would interfere too seriously with college work, it was stated. "We must not forget that football players go to college for an education," was the startling announcement of Coach Andy Smith. U. S. DELEGATES OPPOSE PLANS OF ENGLAND AND FRANCE WASHINGTON, Dec. 21. — The American arms delegation opposes granting France a top heavy allotment of submarines or other auxiliary craft. It also will reject Britain's plea for abolition of submarines. Undaunted by these facts—news of which emanates from responsible American sources—the British and French were proceeding today with plans for pressing their desires on these points. Hope of reaching a complete agreement on limitation of naval armament before Christmas now appears extremely doubtful. The only obstacles remaining are the French demands for a big allotment of auxiliary craft and the British desire that submarines be abolished, but considerable discussion on these points is expected. The French were reported to want between 75,000 and 90,000 tons of submarines. FRANCE MUST MAINTAIN SUBMARINES, SAYS RENE VIVIANI HAVRE, Dec. 21—France must have hubmarines, Rene Viviani, French delegate to the Washington arms con- FRANCE MUST MAINTAIN SUBMARINES, SAYS RENE VIVIANI HAVRE, Dec. 21—France must have hubmarines, Rene Viviani, French delegate to the Washington arms-conference, declared on his arrival here today aboard the French liner Paris from New York. "Our colonial interests make it imperative that we hold undersea craft," Viviani said. "As to practical results of disarmament," he continued, "they cannot be definite until all the interested nations have made known their opinions. "I think France cannot engage herself until she is assured Germany—a formidable producer of chemical products—has given all guarantee for cessation of the manufacture of asphyxating gases." TROOPS TRAIL BANDITS WHO STOLE WIFE OF PRESIDENT SHANGHAI, Dec. 21.—Government troops today were reported on the trail of bandits who captured Madame Sun Yat Sen, wife of the president of South China.

Biehl, local agent for the Motor Transit Company, stated to a representative of the Herald this morning that all of the company stages operating between Anaheim and points north and south have been in operation notwithstanding the floods and resulting washouts. It was necessary to make detours in some instances, he said, and the stage could not run exactly on schedule, but considering the storm difficulties encountered the service was excellent. CHILEAN BEAUTY WHO KILLED FIRST HUBBY IS ENGAGED TO MARRY SANTIAGO, Chile, Dec. 21.—Bianca Errazuriz De Saulles, the Chilean beauty who killed her first husband, Jack De Saulles, American society man, is engaged to marry Fernando Santa Cruz, a young engineer.

She claimed she had no recollection of firing the shots. After a hard fought trial she was acquitted. Kids! Elks Free Show at Fa ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 21, 1921.

McComber, sworn to today by V. R. Peavey. SANTA ANA RIVER ON RAMPAGE BUT BELOW DANGER MARK NEAR HERE Mountain Rains Swelling Streams--Bridges Washed Out—Traffic Tied Up—Showers Subside Here. After eighty-four hours of almost continuous downpour the rain storm which began Saturday evening, subsided this morning, with a total rain fall for the period in Anaheim of 3.84 inches, 1.96 inches having fallen in the twenty-four hours preceding 10 o'clock this morning, making a total of 5.62 inches for the season, as against 3.02 for the same period last year. The record at Santa Ana was 1.84 for the preceding twenty-four hours, 4.80 for the e storm period, and 6.22 for the season. A large number of people congregated this morning at the Olive bridge to watch the flood waters rush down the Santa Ana river and there was considerable excitement and some nervous people, but the river at no time approached the danger point. LOCAL WOMAN DENIED DIVORCE ON CHARGE OF CRUELTY After hearing testimony of the principals involved in a divorce action brought by Mrs. Annie McCullouch of Anaheim against Lincoln McCulloch, oil driller, employed by the General Petroleum Company on the Santa Fe lease at Olinda, Superior Judge R. Y. Williams denied Mrs. Culloch a decree. Judge Williams said it appeared that the trouble between the couple started over dancing. He touched on the shortcomings of both parties. Mrs. McCulloch sought a divorce on the ground of cruelty. She testified that for the past two years her husband has been attending prize fights in Los Angeles, leaving her and the two children alone until a late hour at night. Taught Her to Dance Mrs. McCulloch also testified that when she married McCulloch she did not dance very well and that he insisted on her learning. She said that she reluctantly consented and upon learning how to dance, her husband demanded that she give it up. "I either had to learn to dance and accompany him to dances or refuse to dance and stay at home while he went alone," reclaimed Mrs. McCulloch. Tore Up House Mrs. McCulloch said that on August 10, last her husband came home one evening and got the impression that there was another man in the house. She said that he upset the furniture and created a general disturbance while looking for another man. That McCulloch frequently accused her of being unfaithful, beat and Weak Voices Poor Children Being Santa Claus Embezzlement of $37 from the Ralph Durham Company was charged in a complaint against William R. McComber, sworn to today by V. R. Peavey. McComber was an agent of the Durham Company and the alleged embezzlement is said to have occurred September 3. Weak Voices Poor Children Being Santa Claus Upon the fine spirit of charity that we know resides in this community and which has asserted itself impulsively without counting cost when the vision was rightly caught. So, get that pair of child's stockings, fill one of them with all the goodies you can cram into it and thank God for the privilege of being able to help some ong else. If your position was reversed you would better appreciate the preciousness of this privilege. Get busy! Fill 'em up! Santa Claus starts on his long trip Saturday—only three days more! Who Will Help This Needy Family Now A little girl still smiling sweetly in the shadow of misfortune and poverty and possessing a magnificent faith in the love and unforgetfulness of Santa Claus, evidently thought that the Kafateria Shoe Store was his Headquarters since she carried the following letter addressed to "Santa Claus, Anaheim," and presented it to Manager R. W. Dubois. "Mr. and Mrs. ... R... Box ... Ranch, Anaheim, have a family of 7 to support. Their house burned down a year ago, destroying all their household goods. They lost everything, even their clothes. Mr. ... has only one arm. The children are in school. No help at all given them. They are paying house rent. I know these people are good people and they are sensitive about asking for what they are in need of. I know in the twenty-four hours preceding 10 o'clock this morning, making a total of 5.62 inches for the season, as against 3.02 for the same period last year. The record at Santa Ana was 1.84 for the preceding twenty-four hours, 4.80 for the e storm period, and 6.22 for the season. A large number of people congregated this morning at the Olive bridge to watch the flood waters rush down the Santa Ana river and there was considerable excitement and some nervous people, but the river at no time approached the danger point. River Continues to Rise City Manager O. E. Steward said that the waters would have to reach double the volume of that coming down the stream this morning before the danger point would be approached. The levies did good work, proving the wisdom of the expenditures of the Garden Grove flood control district. The district kept a patrol along the river's edge near the Olive bridge to watch developments during the high water. According to reports at the local office of the Automobile Club of Southern California this morning, the coast route to San Diego was closed and Long Beach could be reached only by way of Garden Grove. The water was reported seven feet deep at the foot of Bixby hill on the main Anaheim route. Railroad Situation Bad The railroad situation is reported as discouraging. The Santa Fe is moving trains through Cajon Pass on one track, the other being blocked by a landslide. The line is still open to Los Angeles by way of Fullerton. The San Diego line is washed out in the vicinity of Del Mar. Hundreds of men are at work both on the Santa Fe and Pacific Electric to keep the lines open. A Union Pacific light engine coming down Cajon Pass Monday night ran through a landslide and narrowly escaped being ditched. Eight power houses of the Southern California Edison Company in Santa Ana, Mill Creek and Lytle Creek canyons are out of business from debris clogging the intakes. The only highway open from San Bernardino to Los Angeles is west on Foothill boulevard south to Ontario, and then west-to-Bassett, and from there via Whittier. Driven From Homes Raging floodwaters of the San Gabriel river, rushing down from the mountain regions early yesterday morning, inundated and destroyed a settlement where thirty Mexican families lived in the river bottom near El Monte and drove them to higher ground after many of them, principally women and children, had experienced harrowing escapes from drowning. Reports from Mt. Wilson are to the effect that a seventy-mile gale had swept the mountain early in the forenoon and that 16.29 inches of rain had fallen up to 5 p.m. yesterday. For several hours the mountain resort was completely out off from communities demanded that she give it up. "I either had to learn to dance and accompany him to dances or refuse to dance and stay at home while he went alone," reclaimed Mrs. McCulloch. Tore Up House Mrs. McCulloch said that on August 10, last her husband came home one evening and got the impression that there was another man in the house. She said that he upset the furniture and created a general disturbance while looking for another man. That McCulloch frequently accused her of being unfaithful, beat and choked her were other allegations made by Mrs. McCulloch. Mrs. McCulloch sought all of the community property which consists of two automobiles, household furnishings, 90 quarts of canned fruit and 50 pints of jam. She is also asking $100 per month for the support of herself and the two minor children. Roger C. Dutton of Anaheim was at torney for Mrs. McCulloch and Clyde Bishop was attorney for the defendant. CHICAGO TRAIN BANDIT WAS POLITE, AND GOT $1000 CHICAGO, Dec. 21.-The "Chesterfield bandit," who held up passengers in the observation car of the Chicago-Washington-New York de luxe train, had made good his escape to day. The highwayman, wearing a silk handkerchief as a mask and expensive dark clothes, robbed passengers of $1000 in cash and jewelry as the Baltimore and Ohio train pulled out of Chicago last night. He pulled the bell rope, jumped over back plate form and escaped in a waiting auto mobile. "Please put your hands up," he commanded politely as he entered the coach after the train had left Englewood station, where marines, with orders to "shoot to kill" were out duty. "I would rather not have any trouble of any kind here." The bandit pointed his pistol at Herbert L. Stansbury, who was traveling with his wife and three daughters. He took $105 in cash and a watch from Sansbury. He came to Mrs. Stansbury next. "I wouldn't rob a woman," the bandit said. "Please go into the next coach with the children." I don't want to frighten them." M. D. Taylor,"passenger agent on the B. and O., was robbed of jewelry and a small amount of cash, as were several other passengers. As he went down the line of victims, relieved each one, the bandit said with a smile "thank you very much. I needed a little Christmas money." Next!! Mr. and Mrs. R. Box Ranch, Anaheim have a family of 7 to support. Their house burned down a year ago, destroying all their household goods. They lost everything, even their clothes. Mr. has only one arm. The children are in school. No help at all given them. They are paying house rent. I know these people are good people and they are sensitive about asking for what they are in need of. I know they will be grateful if you will give them a little Christmas cheer. "I remain, "MRS., _ _ _ _ _ " P. S. Girl 16 years old, girl 13, girl 7, girl 3, boy 15. Like clothes to wear to church and school. Bed blankets would be appreciated." Here is a case that justifies instant whole-hearted response. An investigation has been made and this family are deserving of the very best that kind-hearted persons can do for them. They not only need household goods but they need clothing of all kinds. The response of the Kafateria Dubois and his head salesmen, George Farris and Dan Drake, was instantaneous. They will fit out each of the children with the very best pair of shoes in the Kafateria Shoe Store's big stock. That's the spirit to show! And not only this but the Kafateria staff and their friends are going to make an energetic vass to get all the things these poor little children need as well as furnishing this good family with the necessary household goods. Wake up, folks! We know you want to help and there is many opportunities for you to receive a blessing! Tell The Herald what you want to do—what you can do and we'll take care of the disposition of your gifts. But don't put it off—there's only three days more to make Christmas happy for the poor!

According to a new plan adopted at that time, the new jail will probably be built according to the architect's plans with the exception of one wing, which will be built later. With the plan to eliminate one wing of the structure for the present it is expected that the building can be erected for the amount now available in the county funds for that purpose. Bids are to be advertised to be received on January 29. Most of the bids received for the entire structure were said to have been almost double the amount estimated to be available, but with the reduction in the extent of the plans a consequent reduction in the building funds estimated to be sufficient to bring the cost within the quota now available.

Celler Thieves Provide For "Wet" Christmas LOS ANGELES, Dec. 21—There will be at least one "wet" Christmas in Los Angeles. Joseph Musgrove of 533 South Hoart boulevard thought that his holiday season was going to be cheerful, as far as spirits were concerned. He changed his mind yesterday when he discovered that thieves had broken into his home through a rear window, and cleaned out his cellar. Among the loot were thirty-six bottles of champagne, a cose of bonded whisky, several bottles of real Scotch whisky, and a few other bottles of liquor. An automatic pistol was also taken. Musgrove asked police to help him locate his stock of wet goods and his pistol. Miss Muriel Arkley has returned from the University of Southern California to spend the holidays with her parents.
