THURSDAY, APRIL 10 ANAHEIM TEAM WINS EXCITING CONTEST HARRIS & FRANK AGGREGATION DEFEATED BY A CLOSE SCORE ON SUNDAY GAME REPLETE WITH GINGER FROM FIRST TO LAST HALF OF NINTH Anaheim .....0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1—2 Harris & Frank..0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0—1 After several weeks of hard luck and a long line of unbroken defeats, Dean Hasson's baseball colts "came back" Sunday and wrested an exciting and hard-fought game from the Harris & Frank aggregation, one of the swiftest amateur teams in Los Angeles. The most exciting chapter of the game was the ninth inning. With the score board showing one tally and seven goose eggs in each column, the visitors came to bat for their last chance and would have won the game but for Ortega's sensational double play. Heinrich was weakening and allowed each of the first two men at bat to hit safely. The third man also connected with the ball but flew out to Schultz. The next man drove a liner over right center. It shot across the diamond like a rifle ball, five feet above Ortega's head, but the little second baseman leaped into the air, pulled it down and raced to second in time to catch the runner, who had sprinted for third, six-feet off the base, thus completing, unassisted, the only double play of the game. Ortega's high jump would have won him points in an IN AND ABOUT COUNTY Sugar Company Takes Appeal An appeal has been taken by the Southern California Sugar Company from the $1,000 verdict rendered in the superior court in favor of John L. Trembly, a youth who lost a portion of his hand while employed in the sugar factory. Trembly was awarded $1,000 damages by a jury after trial before Judge West, March 11 last. A petition praying for the appointment of James R. Sherer as guardian for George O., William J., Theodore C., and Margarita J. A. Hill was filed with the county clerk Tuesday morning. The hearing will take place April 11. Complaint Against Closson Dismissed Complaints were last week filed with the Board of Supervisors by D. S. McFarlane, former stock inspector, against County Stock Inspector G. W. Closson of Anaheim. Affidavits were put in to the board asserting that the stock inspector charged for making certain tests brought to his attention, and the claim was made that those tests should be made free, the stock inspector to get his compensation through his salary of $125 a month. The matter was referred by the supervisors to District Attorney West who reported Closson was entitled to make such charge. Des Granges Family Suit More than one hundred thousand dollars is involved in the Des Granges family differences that have led to dispute over the title and rights of three children in eighty acres of fine Placentia lands, and which have resulted in an appeal to the superior court to bring about settlement if not total satisfaction. The suit is to quiet title to the land which was originally owned by Mrs. Des Granges' husband, who bequeathed her a life interest in it, and arranged for its distribution among four children upon the death of Supervisor Smith, who lives roads in his district, gets $500, only. After making the five signers of the letter statement in order to show successors should be given compensation, the letter is the belief of the present that the county ought to year salary with $8 a day for road work, no to allow days per year. That was maximum compensation is argued in favor of them by the supervisors that not sufficient pay for a man use of his automobile large amount of roads to an automobile is indisperable. ROAD BOND MONEY RECEIVED ON First Installment of $300,000 Signing of the $1,270 improvement bonds was Saturday by County Auditor Lester and Chairman Talbert of Supervisors; and County liams has affixed the seal to them. The first installment money was paid into theury on Monday. The n was $300,000. Some very interestingthe bond issue has been County Auditor Lester. The interest on the bonds expiration exceed the principal. In other wordsof $1,270,000 will pay intending to approximately $1,270 bonds run from one year, forty being paid The last forty will fall due 1945. The bonds bear terest, payable semi-annually. Gray was nervous when Anaheim came to bat in the last half of the ninth and gave Schultz a pass to first, the only man who walked during the game. Ortega attempted a sacrifice but bunted toward third, and as McClellan was running in to meet it he easily threw Schultz out at second. Fisher made a clean hit into left field advancing Ortega, and Bourne followed with another hit which netted him first, but Johnny was slow in taking advantage of it and was thrown out at third. Fisher, however, reached third on a bad throw and a fumble, and Pyne, who followed Bourne, drove the ball into right field giving Chillie an opportunity to trot home without much exertion. The first run of the game was made in the sixth. Gerken reached first on a hit. Heinrich bunted, sending Gerk to second and making first himself. Schultz drove a liner through the diamond and while the fielders were catching Dutch at second, Gerken succeeded in crossing the plate. The visitors scored their only run in the eighth. Fulton polled the ball far into center field for a three-bagger, and easily scored on a long fly to Huntington by the next man. In the local's half of the eighth Huntington struck out and Gerken and Heinrich were both retired at first, and the rude manner in which the visitors began slugging the ball in the ninth was disheartening to the fans, but Ortega's brilliant double play put ginger into the locals and disheartened the visitors. It demoralized Gray, as he allowed three hits, a bunt and a base on balls in the last half. Both pitchers did spendid work and were generally most effective in a pinch. Each struck out seven men, and Heinrich allowed but five hits and Gray six. It was an exciting game and both teams were pulled out of danger. More than one hundred thousand dollars is involved in the Des Granges family differences that have led to dispute over the title and rights of three children in eighty acres of fine Placentia lands, and which have resulted in an appeal to the superior court to bring about settlement if not total satisfaction. The suit is to quiet title to the land which was originally owned by Mrs. Des Granges' husband, who bequeathed her a life interest in it, and arranged for its distribution among four children upon the death of his wife. The division of the land into four 20-acre tracts was made, it is claimed, with the understanding that the deeds were not to be recorded until Mrs. Des Granges demise, but it seems that they have appeared on record. Clara B. Turtin has instituted suit against Jacob Stern et al to quiet title to certain property located in Rancho Las Bolsas.

M. at San Juan Capistrano Notice has been sent out by the U.S. Civil Service Commission that on Saturday, April 26, an examination will be held in Santa Ana for the postmastership at San Juan Capistrano. The compensation for this office last fiscal year was $521. The present postmaster is Peter Jauregin. The office comes within the new regulation which makes it a competitive civil service office. Ask Raise in Supervisors' Salaries A letter has been addressed to State Senator Anderson, signed by the five members of the Board of Supervisors, asking that the county salaries bill provide additional compensation for members of the board hereafter elected. The letter stated clearly that the request is made for the benefit of the supervisors who may hereafter be elected. It states that the present compensation is not fair, in that the expenses of holding the office are such that a supervisor gets little for his time and work. At present the law allows each supervisor $500 per year with $4 per day additional for road supervision, not to exceed 150 days a month. Some very interesting news about the bond issue has been County Auditor Lester. The interest on the bonds expiration exceed the annual principal. In other words of $1,270,000 will pay into it regarding to approximately $1,280 bonds run from one year, forty being paid by The last forty will fall due 1945.

HEYING'S DRUG STORE Supervisor Smith, who has no county roads in his district, gets his salary, $500, only. After making it plain that the five signers of the letter make the statement in order to show that their successors should be given additional compensation, the letter states that it is the belief of the present supervisors that the county ought to pay $600 a year salary with $8 a day additional for road work, no to allow for over 150 days per year. That would put the maximum compensation at $1,800. It is argued in favor of the stand taken by the supervisors that $4 a day is not sufficient pay for a man's time and the use of his automobile. With the large amount of roads to be gone over an automobile is indispensable. ROAD BOND MONEY RECEIVED ON MONDAY First installment of $300,000 Received For County Highway System Signing of the $1,270,000 highway improvement bonds was completed on Saturday by County Auditor Lester and Chairman Talbert of the Board of Supervisors; and County Clerk Williams has affixed the seal of the county to them. The first installment of the money was paid into the county treasury on Monday. The first payment was $300,000. Some very interesting figuring on the bond issue has been done by County Auditor Lester. He finds that the interest on the bonds will at their expiration exceed the amount of the principal. In other words the issue of $1,270,000 will pay interest amounting to approximately $1,450,000. The bonds run from one to thirty-two years, forty being paid off annually. The last forty will fall due in the year 1945. The bonds bear 5 per cent interest, payable semi-annually in the CALIFORNIA DEER DISAPPEARING RAPIDLY RADICAL MEASURES NECESSARY IN ORDER TO PRESERVE GAME FROM EXTINCTION SPECIAL STUDY OF SUBJECT BY FISH AND GAME COMMISSION—HOPE TO INCREASE SUPPLY (By Frank C. Clarke) The large game animals of California constitute one of the most important groups of game in this State. That some of these animals are rapidly approaching extinction is a fact which needs no proof. The older sportsmen, and hunters in general, testify to the great decrease in the number of deer, elk, mountain sheep, and antelope that has taken place in California during the past three or four decades. In consequence of the importance of this game, and in view of the fact of the materially lessened numbers, the Fish and Game Commission has undertaken a special study of the subject, with the hope of establishing a more efficient system of conservation, one that not only will prevent the extermination of these animals, but will result in an increase of the present numbers, so that the large game animals may become a permanent source of wealth for the people of the State. Until recent years, the work of conserving the large game supply of the State was a matter regulated by a more or less arbitrary set of game laws, enforced by a corps of field deputies of the Fish and Game Commis- ing the summer and fall of 1911, an investigation was made of an epidemic among the deer of Trinity county; and for more than a year careful study was made of the diseases and parasites of the deer. This latter work was carried on at the University of California, in the Departments of Parasitology and Zoology. The investigation of the life history of our large game animals and of all that pertains thereto will be continued by the Commission, with the co-operation of the Department of Zoology of the University of California. It is both scientific and economic in purpose. Field work is being supplemented by study in a thoroughly equipped laboratory at the University. In connection with the work, a collection is being made of literature on the natural history of large game in the West, especially the deer; this also includes a special collection of enactments relating to the various species of this game by the various states and countries. The work is being conducted along two lines: first, to gather exact data as to the past and present conditions of the deer, elk, mountain sheep, and antelope (especially the former); to determine the varieties of each and their geographical distribution, their seasonal migrations, their life histories, and habits and, in fact, everything concerning the life of these animals. The second consideration, and the ultimate aim of the undertaking, is to work out an adequate system of game conservation for the State; this will include the maintenance and increase of our large game, especially deer; the establishment of game farms and game refuges, and the stocking of these farms and refuges, also forest preserves; and the importation of new species into the State—species that not only will bear the climate, but that will breed well and be productive. Some very interesting figuring on the bond issue has been done by County Auditor Lester. He finds that the interest on the bonds will at their expiration exceed the amount of the principal. In other words the issue of $1,270,000 will pay interest amounting to approximately $1,450,000. The bonds run from one to thirty-two years, forty being paid off annually. The last forty will fall due in the year 1945. The bonds bear 5 per cent interest, payable semi-annually in the months of March and September. There are two coupons on each bond, beginning with two for the first bond and increasing in number until the last bond has 64 coupons to be cut. With the receipt of the bond money it is expected that there will be a natural impetus given to the preliminary work of the county highway commission. Surveying work is now being pushed ahead, and various routes are receiving consideration. The commission has arranged for regular weekly meetings to be held in their new headquarters in the basement of the county courthouse, where Secretary G. A. Whidden will be in daily attendance. CONCRETE POLE MAN RESUMES OLD JOB Goes to Fresno Under Contract With Power Company to Set Poles and String Wires W. J. Orr left on Monday evening for Fresno, where he goes to take a position with a lighting and power company as superintendent of a field division in the erection of poles and stringing wires. This is Mr. Orr's old job. It was while tramping over mountains, setting up wooden poles, and then after years retracting his steps, taking out old poles and replacing them with new ones, that the idea of concrete poles first suggested itself to him. He came here two years ago, organized a company for manufacturing sectional concrete poles, and some weeks ago gave a test of poles to representatives of several electric power and lighting companies. The test was a severe one, and the poles failed to respond to the weight placed upon them. Mr. Orr is firm in the opinion that concrete poles will eventually come into their own. He goes north to resume his old position, but intends returning to Anaheim from time to time, and may yet take up the work of manufacturing concrete poles. Every Time establishing a more efficient system of conservation, one that not only will prevent the extermination of these animals, but will result in an increase of the present numbers, so that the large game animals may become a permanent source of wealth for the people of the State. Until recent years, the work of conserving the large game supply of the State was a matter regulated by a more or less arbitrary set of game laws, enforced by a corps of field deputies of the Fish and Game Commission. This system of conservation, though partially efficient, lacks the scientific considerations which are the essential basis of all successful conservation work. Our large game has decreased to the point where radical measures must be taken in order to preserve it as a factor of economic importance. The investigation that has recently been instituted aims to solve the question of large game conservation, but putting the system on a sound scientific and thoroughly practical basis. This movement was initiated by Dr. T. S. Palmer of the United States Biological Survey, and the proposition, as taken up, was presented to the State Board of Fish and Game Commissioners by Dr. C. A. Kofoid, professor of zoology at the University of California, who pointed out the value of such an investigation, both from the scientific and from the economic points of view. Owing to the recent inception of the work, it is impossible to give a final report on any feature at this time; however, considerable study preceded the present official investigation, which dates from June 25, 1912. GERMAN BAPTIST The Young Peoples' Society of the German Baptist church, corner Lemon and Broadway, will give their annual entertainment on Sunday, April 13, beginning at 7:15 P.M., the program consisting of songs by the choir, duets, male quartets, readings, a dialogue entitled "Remember Lot's Wife," and an address by Rev. K. Feldmeth of Los Angeles. Refreshments will be served at the end of the program. You are cordially invited to share with us the blessings and pleasures of the evening. The program will be rendered strictly in German. A delightful surprise party was tendered Mrs. M. C. Morgan at her home four miles west of town Saturday night by a party of friends in honor of her recent marriage. The young people met at the home of Mr. and Mrs. L. W. Rains and from there walked to the Morgan home, where Mrs. Morgan was completely surprised by their unexpected arrival. The evening was spent with games and music, and concluded with delicious refreshments which the uninvited guests had brought with them. Those present besides the host and hostess, Mr. and Mrs. Morgan, were Mrs. J. W. King, Messrs. Clare and Thurston Dale, Johnny and Robert Sullivan, DeLos Cole, John King, Will Gleason, Clarence Kuhl, James Trapp, George Rains, Guy Carlston, Riley Cooley, and the Misses Bessie Burrows, Marjorie Rains, Marie Dickenson, Ethel Cole, Vera Cole, Genevieve Gleason, Lyla, Vera and Cleo Reed, and Viola Sullivan. Capt. Williams and P. R. Donahoe are making preparations for a visit to Gettysberg in July on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of that historic battle. Mr. Donahoe fought under Mead at that struggle, while Captain Williams was with Sheridan in the Shenandoah Valley. Rev. A. B. Markle also contemplates a visit to the battlefield, and a delegation of Grand Army veterans will probably accompany these distinguished visitors on their trip.
