IT WAS A BATTLE ROYAL Anaheim Ball Team Loses Great 17-Inning Contest The greatest ball game ever pulled off in Anaheim was that of last Sunday between the Anaheim Browns and the strong Tufts-Lyons of Los Angeles, the latter conceded to be the best amateur team in the southern metropolis. It was a desperate struggle from the time the umpire said "Play ball" until the last Anaheim player was put out in the seventeenth inning. Dubois and Gerken were in the points for the locals and while Dubois was not in his best form the great headwork displayed by him and his able assistant behind the bat held the visitors in check until the first half of the seventeenth when on a walk, an error and a hit they scored what proved to be the winning run. There was some great work done in the outfield by both teams—a total of 24 putouts being made in the outer garden. Of all these "Stump" Huntington, the local center fielder, made the star catch of the day. After a long run, seeing that he could not reach the ball, he dove for it and after rolling over a time or two came up with it in his gloved mit. That was not the only difficult catch he made during the day, either. Eddie Goddard was also there with the goods in the fly-catching line, and in the sixth inning after a long run he speared one of the high ones and doubled one of the visitors at second base. Pratt, left fielder, and Sawyer, second baseman, did the most brilliant work for the visitors, although Eddie Haight, the pitcher, was not far behind. In the fifth inning he retired. STREET BOOTHS Mr. Hamler Makes Suggestion to Business Houses Director-General Hamler said yesterday that, following the example set by many other towns where carnivals had been held, Anaheim's merchants should erect booths in front of their places of business for accommodation of the crowds who will be in town during the carnival. These booths will be inexpensive, and will be greatly appreciated by women and children who desire to view the parade. The booths may contain two rows of seats, and may be extended four or five feet into the street from the curb. A canvass covering overhead will add to their comfort. Furniture dealers may add to the comfort of booths in front of their places of business by providing upholstered chairs. Mr. Hamler suggests that public-spirited business men in town take the matter up and provide booths. The cost will be small in each case, and the resultant comfort to women and children great. Those who have attended fiestas in Los Angeles, and have had to stand in the streets all day, will appreciate the wisdom of his words. To the booths, gentlemen; everybody to the booths. CLEAN YOUR LOTS Along the line of March there are at intervals lots decorated with fine crops of weeds. Let these lots be cleaned. We shall have thousands of visitors and clean lots are what we should show them, in the absence of fine buildings. Clean your lots, everybody. NOTES FROM STANTON That was not the only difficult catch he made during the day, either. Eddie Goddard was also there with the goods in the fly-catching line, and in the sixth inning after a long run he speared one of the high ones and doubled one of the visitors at second base. Pratt, left fielder, and Sawyer, second baseman, did the most brilliant work for the visitors, although Eddie Halight, the pitcher, was not far behind. In the fifth inning he retired the Anaheim boys on five pitched balls something of a feat. Errors on the part of Anaheim's infield lost the game as the visitors failed to earn a run although they had men on bases in nearly every inning. A part of that same detestable bunch that tried to "knock" the Anaheim club out of existence last season, were out with their hammers on Sunday, making themselves as obnoxious as possible to the people who want to see Anaheim have a good team. If this sort of soreheads are not satisfied with the kind of ball played by the local club their two bit pieces can easily be dispensed with. To be sure the Anaheim line-up is a little weak in one or two instances, but anyone with even a place where brains ought to be should realize the fact that it takes time, trouble and money to get a winning team together. The club that represented Anaheim Sunday was by far the strongest that has ever called this town home. On next Sunday the fast Henry & Cornet team of Los Angeles will mingle with the local boys on the new grounds near the high school. Quit your knocking and be there with a mouth full of enthusiasm, and let the Anaheim boys know that you are backing them to a man. It will help.

BOYS STEAL RIG AND CANDY Runaways Captured Here After Distributing Sweets En Route Frank Martin, aged '17, and Paul Farrell, aged '14, were arrested by Detectives Zeigler and Fitzgerald Saturday for stealing a horse and buggy, and gunny sack filled with candy and chewing gum. The lads were taken into custody in this city, to where the boys had driven the horse following the theft of the candy and gum. The lads were sent to the detention home. The horse and buggy were found by the boys in front of a store in Los Angeles. From there the boys drove to a candy company plant and after forcing an entrance, filled a barley-sack with candy and gum and came here. F. C. SPENCER ATTORNEY-AT-LAW Notary Public Odd Fellows' Block, Center Street Anaheim, Cal. $10.50 for a box of merchandise which it was the purpose of the committee to sell at a profit, but which the express company failed to deliver on time, there is a net balance of about $80. All the different stands and booths did a good business, and the officers of the chamber of commerce express a very high appreciation of the wise management and hard work done by those who had charge of the enterprise. The ice cream booth was in charge of Miss Gertrude Kennedy; fancy booth, Miss Ida Kennedy; fish pond Miss Mazie Pierce; Dutch Kitchen, Frank Sparks; "Rebecca at the Well," Miss Marie Dickenson. "Shimoza," the seeress, had a steady run of business during the evening and predicted all kinds of good fortune for those who paid the fee. The courtesy of the Buena Park committee in postponing the carnival there on account of the bazaar was duly appreciated, and there will be a large attendance from this community at the Buena Park event. Bill Kennedy, as auctioneer, made a hit, and sold a variety of merchandise and live stock at good prices. Kennedy says the climate is delightful throughout the greater port. ken, the city trustees held a very brief session at the school house on Wednesday evening. Trustees Buntain, Hill, Muller, Winters and President Bradford were all on hand. Also the clerk and city marshal. Report was made for property owners who had agreed to assist in the improvement of Valencia street that they are quite busy at present and request a little delay in the work until their affairs are in better shape for taking the time necessary to finish the job. In view of this request it was decided to use the oil which will be delivered during the next few days in front of the school property on Magnolia avenue, where the roadway is in very bad condition, and where property owners are ready to do their part of the work. E. R. M. Pierce reported the completion and delivery at the new city hall at Stanton station of the table and chairs ordered for the council room. Beginning Monday night the meetings will be held twice a month, on the first and third Monday evenings at 7:30 o'clock. Steps are being taken to form an organization of young men who desire to establish a brass band. A number have already signified their willingness to join in the enterprise and a meeting will be held in the near future to take definite action. W. P. Robinson and wife of River-side were over Sunday guests of Mr. and Mrs. Robert McKee. They were driven to Newport Beach for an outing. Mr. Robinson pronounced Mr. McKee's young orange orchard the finest he had seen in the valley. Chilly Fisher and Vic Lamont left on Monday for a ten-days' auto trip to up-state points.
