Baseball The Anaheim Elks ball nine began shaking up the apple in the first chapter Sunday when they crossed bats with Joe Pyronne's fast semi-professional ponies and after the dust settled the man with the megaphone said they had annexed five tallies. In the first half of the initial frame Pyronne got a hit, but was called out at first on what looked like a real 50-50 finish. But as Joe didn't crab the fans let it go at that. Another visitor got to third while another settled on to second and it seemed they would come across, but they didn't. Just for sake of argument, had Pyronne been called safe the game might have taken on an entirely different aspect. However, the local lads were in fine form and put up a snappy contest. The visitors pulled themselves together in the fourth inning and got three men home, and the small but enthusiastic bunch of spectators looked for a few more thrills, but they did not happen. Pyronne's players looked sad, as they realized they were in fast company. There was the usual allotment of crabbing on the part of some of the visiting team over the decisions, but that no doubt is part of all ballplayers makeup, and they just have to get it out of their systems. There will be another game next Sunday afternoon which will be the last, as the Anaheim team goes to Sacramento to play for the state championship on October 8. Arch Hawkins is a fast ball player. He made two running catches of high flies in deep left field. A runner started home from third after Arch caught the ball, but he threw it right into the catcher's mitt at the plate, retiring the runner. A second time Hawkins ment of the some 25,000 people expected to attend the fair. In the large main tent, which is 200 feet long, will be the manufacturers' exhibits, general exhibits of farm produce, the "Canary Cottage", the Farm Bureau and district community exhibits, etc., with the women competing in the culinary and domestic arts departments. In the general displays, there are more than a dozen exhibits departments as follows: agriculture, horticulture, poultry and pet stock; culinary; preserved fruits and vegetables; domestic arts and needlework; antiques and souvenirs; floriculture, livestock (goats and hogs) education, religious education, aviculture, bees and honey. There are both individual and collective exhibits. Among the communities arranging district exhibits are Anaheim, Garden Grove,Cypress,Buena Park, Tustin, Costa Mesa, La Hahra, Yorba Linda, Fullerton, Villa Park, and El Modena. The doors of the fair open next Thursday morning at 10 o'clock when all exhibits must be in place. The culinary and domestic arts exhibits must be at Huntington Beach by 6 p.m. next Wednesday. Besides the large main tent, there will be a tent 140 feet long devoted exclusively to automobiles, trucks, and tractors, and another good sized tent will be used for vaudeville entertainment afternoon and evening, band concerts daily, speaking, and other interesting features. Next Thursday, the opening day, will be Northern Orange County day, with concerts, morning, afternoon,and evening by the Anaheim Elks Band. The Orange county dairyman's picnic will also be held on this day, under auspices of the Farm Bureau. Judging of the exhibits starts at 10 a.m. There will be another game next Sunday afternoon which will be the last, as the Anaheim team goes to Sacramento to play for the state championship on October 8. Arch Hawkins is a fast ball player. He made two running catches of high files in deep left field. A runner started home from third after Arch caught the ball, but he threw it right into the catcher's mitt at the plate, retiring the runner. A second time Hawkins caught a long drive in his territory and threw the ball to first, catching a runner there, who had been forced back from second. Arch is fleet on foot and many like to see him hit the ball just to see him circle the sacks, if nothing else. He is an all round player, and is also a star upon the football field. There are many who believe a ball game is a dry affair without Riley. The bunch tried to pester him, but he quieted one facetious Josher, by telling him it was liable to cloud up and rain all over him. There was the usual bunch of ball cranks on hand and the way they passed out the goat getters was fierce. Levi Straus of Fullerton was on deck and handed out the latest jolts. Straus is heralded as the king of kidders. Price caught a long fly in right garden and winged it over to third, heading off one of Pyronne's runners, who was going in the high for that sack. Frank Davis took a chance and occupied one of the high bleacher seats. Frank likes to see them hit the ball and run. Bob Corcoran came over from Fullerton to see the game accompanied by his two pretty daughters. Bob is a baseball fan and he says his daughters are, too. The lineup: PYOTTS—ANAHEIM— Pirrone, 1b.

The Orange county dairymen's picnic will also be held on this day, under auspices of the Farm Bureau. Judging of the exhibits starts at 10 a.m. Friday, October 8, is educational day, and this will probably be the biggest day of the fair for free tickets will be sent to every teacher and school pupil in the county, a holiday has been declared for that day, and there will without doubt be thousands of the students there with their fathers, mothers, and other relatives. Features of the day will be a program of school sports and competitions. Friday is also Santa Ana day, and there will be concerts morning, afternoon, and evening by the Santa Ana band, with the usual vaudeville afternoon and evening. Several school bands, orchestras and glee clubs, it is expected, will also take part in the entertainment program. Saturday, October 9, is the closing day of the fair, and will without doubt see another big crowd in attendance. Particular features of the day will be the Old Settlers' reunion, states' picnics on the beach, and concerts by the Huntington Beach band, also the usual vaudeville entertainment. A closing feature of the fair will be a big confetti carnival at night. A merry-go-round, sideshows and other attractions will be on the fair grounds, and there will be plenty of entertainment for young and old. The more daring spirits will have an opportunity to take a ride in airplanes, which it is promised, will perform "stunts" over the fair tents each day. The Fair Committee offers a cash prize of $25 and a free ride in the airplane to a couple who will be married at the fair grounds on the opening day. The first couple making application for the prize is promised an interesting wedding day on October 7. Any couple wanting the twenty-five and an aerial nuptial jaunt, and who will be married at the fair on Oct. 7 should notify J. K. McDonald, of Huntington Beach, secretary of the fair committee at once. The admission charges to the fair will be: season tickets, 75c; adults each day, 35c; children each day, 15c; it will be a big fair. The lineup: PYOTTS—ANAHEIM— Pirrone, 1b. Pendleton, ss.

There will be a game of ball on the high school grounds Saturday, the last the Anaheim Elks will play before going to Sacramento to wrestle with Oakland for the state championship. Persons who have seen both the Anaheim and Oakland teams in action are confident the northern team will be outclassed when the two nines meet. ORANGE COUNTY FAIR A GREAT EXPOSITION Anaheim Will Have Prominent Place in The Splendid Display. When the doors of the 1920 Orange County Fair swing open at Huntington Beach next Thursday morning at 10 o'clock, there will without doubt be opened the greatest exposition of Orange county's marvelous soil production ever held, and Anaheim and vicinity will no doubt be well represented at the fair grounds on the three big days. There are so many departments of the fair and the exhibits will be of such varied character that they must be seen to be appreciated, and a brief news article can only hint at the many things being arranged for the enjoy- RABIES INCREASING The heads of 67 animals examined in the Hygienic Laboratory of the Bureau of Communicable Diseases of the State Board of Health since the beginning of the year proved positive for rabies and reports of 35 additional positive cases have been received. There were 76 known cases of rabies in California during the year 1919. These figures indicate that the disease will show a higher incidence for 1920 than for any year since 1916. Persons who are bitten by rabid animals must secure Pasteur treatment promptly, and the Bureau of Communicable Diseases is constantly engaged in the manufacture of the anti-rabie virus employed in these treatments. During the past few years no less than 874 persons have received Pasteur treatments under the Bureau of Communicable Diseases of the State Board of Health. The Anaheim Elks band has been engaged to play for the county fair at Huntington Beach next week. The Santa Ana and Huntington Beach bands will also make music during the three days exhibition. HARDING—THE EDITOR International. Senator Warren Q. Harding, Republican nominee for President, is thoroughly familiar with the imposing stone and can "make-up" rapidly and skillfully. Here he is shown "making-up" forms in the composing room of his newspaper, the Marion (O.) Star. A DAY WITH SENATOR HARDING Calm, Steady, Determined, the American Who Is Leading the Republican Party to Victory Goes About the Busi- CO-OPERATIVE MARKETING PLANS FOR THIS SECTION Campaign Inaugurated to Eliminate Speculation in Farm Products In an effort to eliminate speculation and waste in the distribution of food products and to bring the producer and consumer closer together a campaign is being inaugurated and an elaborate expansion of the co-operative plan of marketing, under the supervision of Gilbert B. Daniels, State Market Director, backed by the state department of agriculture and the farm bureaus in the different counties of the southern part of the state. The great success attained by co-operative marketing associations in the northern and central parts of the state has been the means of stimulating the activities of the growers of southern California to such an extent that requests have been received by Mr. Daniels from nearly every county south of the Tehachapi for assistance in forming local and County-wide marketing associations. In carrying out this work, Fred N. Bigelow, secretary of the state market commission and James P. Britt, director for Southern California are now organizing the growers into co-operative marketing associations in Imperial Valley where the lettuce and melon growers will be grouped together and in Coachella Valley where the onion growers through their own co-operative marketing association will market their crop. The vegetable growers in Lakeside, San Diego county as well as at Carlsbad are being brought together and also the apricot and peach growers in Riverside county in the vicinity of Hemet and San Jacinto. The county farm bureaus in connection with this work, conduct prelim- A DAY WITH SENATOR HARDING Calm, Steady, Determined, the American Who Is Leading the Republican Party to Victory Goes About the Business of the Campaign in His Modest Office in Marion. By WILLIAM HOSTER. The American people will decide of course. If they can visualize the vital principle which is at stake—the spirit which is at once the keynote and the mainspring of the campaign upon which the nation has entered, there can be no doubt of the result. It isn't a thing that can be carried about the country, and exhibited from the rear end of a Pullman car. It is wholly apart from the red fire, blaring bands and stump oratory of old-fashioned campaigns. The issue, in short, goes deep down to that principle which has been the mainspring of the national life since the days of Lexington and Concord; and the patriotic citizen, Republican and Democrat alike, by taking counsel with himself, will find it imbedded in his own heart. Here in Marion, O., you get a concrete exposition of that vital principle. It is good to come to Marion and get the true perspective. You are brought anew, here, to the realization that the country is in process of electing a chief executive to guide the destinies of 120,000,000 people for the four years ensuing from March 4 next; that the very serious business of bringing about what a European observer described as "a revolution by due process of law," is going forward with a proper regard for the dignity and importance of the task. Scene Entirely Appropriate. Your first impression is of the fitness of Marion as the scene for the enactment of such a chapter in American history. It is a quiet little country town, for all its boasted industrial activity; and when you approach the Harding residence, one among many in its simplicity and attractiveness, you feel it is quite in keeping with events that from this typical American home there should come a modest, dignified and capable, up-standing American upon whom this choice of his fellow citizens should fall to uphold the honor and traditions of the nation. This conviction grows when you meet the man. He is typical of the successful business man—of the hundreds of the senator. Just at the minute he is reading proof on editorials which are to be printed in his newspaper, the Marlon "Star," in the afternoon. The senator stands for everything that is printed in the "Star," and is careful to read what goes into its columns before the paper goes to press. Disposing of the proof sheet, he shakes hands cordially with you, and you are at liberty to size him up. Mark Him Dependable. He is somewhat above the average, of course, because he has already been singled out by the people of Ohio to represent them in the senate. But aside from this: You are at once struck by his balance and his polite. You mark him as dependable—safe. There is that in his face, on his brow, which gives assurance that he is not the sort of a man who will speak without thinking, or act without deliberating. There is reserve force in his bearing, determination in his jaws, character in his mouth, kindly sympathy in his eyes. As you listen to him talk here in the Christian dining room, or later, in a speech to a visiting delegation from the front perch of his home, this conviction is strengthened. He doesn't say anything in his office that he wouldn't say out on the porch, nor anything on the porch that he wouldn't adhere to in all sincerity in his office. The thing that strikes you at all times—it is the very atmosphere of Marion—is his moderation, his restraint—the absence of all bombast and exaggeration in his statements, the careful presentation of the issues, the avoidance of all attempt to array one class against the other, the conveyance of the desire, if called to the presidency, to be president of all the people; and, without making any high-sounding promises, to give all of the people the best that is in him. Avoids Personal Controversy. Particularly noticeable is his avoidance of personal controversy. Not once since his nomination has Harding referred in a public speech to his opponent. He adheres to the issues. Not once has he permitted himself to melon growers will be grouped together and in Coachella Valley where the onion growers through their own co-operative marketing association will market their crop. The vegetable growers in Lakeside, San Diego county as well as at Carlsbad are being brought together and also the apricot and peach growers in Riverside county in the vicinity of Hemet and San Jacinto. The county farm bureau in connection with this work, conduct preliminary investigations as to crop conditions, amount-of food stuffs available, proximity to shipping points and other very material matters in connection with the ability of the growers to organize by reason of the amount of their product. Following this investigation Mr. Bigelow and Mr. Britt will arrange meetings with the growers in different localities where the aid of the state market director is requested and will prepare subscription and marketing agreements, thus enabling the farmers to band themselves together in an association whereby they will be able to market their own crop. It is the plan of the department of agriculture to assist in this work by placing inspectors at shipping points who will issue certificates as to the quality of the product, which will be a protection to the grower in the event of difficulty at point of shipment. It is the opinion of the state market commission that co-operative marketing will not only increase production but that by elimination of waste and speculation will decrease the price of necessities to the ultimate consumer. Headquarters of the state market commission for Southern California have been opened at 310 Wilcox Bldg., Los Angeles, and it is the intention of the State Market Director to organize the growers wherever the condition is found feasible. SALT LAKE ACTIVITY The Salt Lake railroad is again looking to the construction of a railroad from Pico station, near Whittler, to Santa Ana. That the road is in contemplation is shown by the fact that Frank K. Adams, general freight agent, and B. M. Jones, district freight agent of the L. A. and Salt Lake railroad, have been making a canvass among the merchants of Fullerton and Anahaim, to ascertain what tonnage can be secured in these cities should she It is a quiet little country town, for all its boasted industrial activity; and when you approach the Harding residence, one among many in its simplicity and attractiveness, you feel it is quite in keeping with events that from this typical American home there should come a modest, dignified and capable, up-standing American upon whom the choice of his fellow citizens should fall to uphold the honor and traditions of the nation. This conviction grows when you meet the man. He is typical of the successful business man—of the hundreds of thousands of successful Americans who have accumulated a competence through the ordinary channels which are open to all hard working, straightforward American boys. Meet him, now. He has established an office in the home of George Christian, Jr., his secretary, which adjoins the Harding house—and this is typical; chief and secretary live side by side, each owning his own modest home. And by the way, these executive officers are illuminating as to the kind of a man it is whom the Republican party has made its standard bearer in this epoch-making campaign. Every room in the house is given ever to the business in hand—the senator's conference room is the Christian dining room, his private office, where the important conferences are held, is the kitchen. In the living room sits Christian. Elsewhere, from cellar to garret, the staff are at work. No confusion, no disorder, no hectic shouting at the top of one's voice, no running around in circles, pounding of the table, no Harrying, Jimmying or Billying, with strident denunciations of the other side, and loud boastings of the way the opposition candidate is to be beaten into a pulp. Just a thorough, careful, business-like transaction of the business in hand—precisely the way in which we like to think the work of 120,000,000 people will be conducted at the White House after March 4. Step into the dining room and meet Particularly noticeable is his avoidance of personal controversy. Not once since his nomination has Harding referred in a public speech to his opponent. He adheres to the issues. Not once has he permitted himself to indulge in personal denunciation of his rival. He is sane. He has fixed convictions as to the moderation and balance which should characterise candidates for the high office of the presidency; departure from which he believes, without doing any good to the candidate who offends, does serve to bring American institutions into contempt. During the war there was a Harding-kind of man in service as bo'sun on an American merchantman. The time came when the ship was torpedoed; and the bo'sun was put in charge of the tiller on the whaleboat in which a goodly portion of the crew took refuge. A storm arose, and there was imminent danger that the boat would be swamped. In the stern sheets sat the bo'sun, rigid and erect, his hand locked to the tiller. He said little—"Steady!" now and then to the rowers; or "hold fast"; take her head on!" as the boat rose on the crest of a giant wave, and then plunged straight down into the trough of the sea. But for twenty-three hours straight-away, he held fast to the tiller, and he didn't relinquish it until he had guided the boat hard and fast on a friendly beach. Then he got up and stretched and asked for a pipe of tobacco. Calm, steady, determined and knowing his business, one conceives of the other Harding thus guiding the ship through any storm that may arise, to a safe harbor. The Salt Lake railroad is again looking to the construction of a railroad from Pico station, near Whittler, to Santa Ana. That the road is in contemplation is shown by the fact that Frank K. Adams, general freight agent, and B. M. Jones, district freight agent of the L.A. and Salt Lake railroad, have been making a canvass among the merchants of Fullerton and Anahlm, to ascertain what tonnage can be secured in these cities should the branch line of the system be finished into Santa Ana. Four years ago the Salt Lake road announced its plans for building to Santa Ana. Practically all of the right of way was secured. In Santa Ana houses were cleared from the right of way along Poinsettia street between Stafford street on the north and First street on the south. At Whittler overhead crossings were constructed. A number of condemnation action for right of way were started. The war stopped the building. When the government took the railroads over all plans for building were set aside. That the Salt Lake would renew its plans to come here has been understood for some time. The sum of $103,705.98 has been apportioned to schools of Orange county by the state. This is for what is known as the first quarterly apportionment. It is made on the basis of $350 per teacher for last year, for the elementary schools, and on a basis of $5.01 per pupil for the high schools. Orange county, with 257.70 teachers on the payroll last year, is receiving $90,195 for its elementary schools.

The next apportionment from the state should be made about February, on daily average attendance reported on June 30. The apportionment to the high schools is as follows: Anaheim, 307 pupils, $2,138.07; Fullerton, 491 pupils, $3,059.91; Huntington Beach, 145 pupils, $1,326.45; Orange, 332 pupils, $2,263.32; Santa Ana, 823 pupils, $4,723.23. San Juan Capistrano high school was not in existence last school year, and for that reason does not figure in this apportionment. At a meeting of the Democratic County Central Committee Saturday afternoon, an executive committee of five members was selected to look after many matters pertaining to the campaign. Those named on the committee are H. C. Head and J. G. Mitchell, Santa Ana; S. W. Nau, Tustin; W. T. Brown, Fullerton; C. E. Jones, Anaheim. Steps were taken to add names to the central committee. It is proposed to select a number of Democrats in each supervisorial district and ask them to meet regularly with the central committee. The central committee feels that under the state law the number of central committees that are legally possible is far too small to handle a campaign successfully. A number of questions concerning plans for campaign work were discussed Saturday. S. W. Nau, of Tustin is chairman of the committee and B. E. Tarver of Santa Ana secretary. ANOTHER DISCOVERY Sherlock Holmes, Hawkshaw, Nick Carter and other great detectives have nothing on Gov. Cox when it comes to sleuthing. The governor has made another great discovery. He has learned that a week or two ago Senator Harding wrote a letter to Senator Johnson in which he whispered sub Rosa on the q.t. and not for publication that he (Harding) is opposed to President Wilson's league of nations covenant. In righteous indignation Gov. Cox demands that somebody produce that letter and make it public. George Stone, 36, and Thomas McMahon, 40, were arrested several days ago in Anaheim on vagrancy charges Saturday began the serving of 30-day sentences in the county jail. They were sentenced by Judge Howard. Anaheim Gazette, per year, $1.50, payable in advance.
