Store "The Store with the Goods" Billy Cook, one of the star players of the Anaheim high school football team, sustained a badly wrenched arm in the game with Fullerton Saturday afternoon, and was compelled to have surgical aid. His retirement seriously crippled the home team. The Anaheim high school football team lost its first game in the Orange county league series Saturday afternoon, being defeated by the Fullerton huskies by a score of 40 to 0. The Anaheim boys put up a hard fight, but the Fullerton veterans were too heavy for them. The next game will be played with Santa Ana. G. W. Wardwell, deputy county horticultural commissioner, keeps four pet skunks at his home at Huntington Beach. Knowing something of the habits of this animal from long acquaintance with him in the east, we are glad to note by the map that Huntington Beach is twelve or fifteen miles away from our residence. While F. H. Garrison's auto was standing on the driveway between the street and the garage Saturday evening, somebody attempted to borrow or steal it. He succeeded in rolling it out as far as the street, but his maneuvers were observed by a member of the family, who asked him what he intended doing with it. The fellow immediately faded into the darkness. The next new beautiful edifice slated for Anaheim is the Evangelistic Lutheran church to be erected on the sight of the old building at the corner of Emily and Chartres streets, opposite the new grammar school building. This church has been in contemplation for some time, and last week the official board voted to go ahead with it. The building will cost about Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Neff, who are now living in Los Angeles, were visiting in town Saturday. Mrs. Neff is still compelled to use crutches although slowly improving. They are now living at 932 Harvard Boulevard. Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Duckworth left Sunday for Frisco from which port they sailed the first of the week for Honolulu, where they will spend six months visiting their son Guy and his family. They expect to make their visit long enough to enable them to see everything of interest in the islands. The Brea Townsite company, which sells water for domestic use in the city of Brea, has asked the Railroad Commission to be relieved of its obligation as a public service corporation. The company has entered into an agreement to sell its plant to the city of Brea for $37,500. Authority to make the sale and transfer its property is also asked of the commission. Miss Florence Werdin, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E. R. Werdin, was married yesterday evening at the home of her parents in North Glendale, to Walter R. Sprinkel of Los Angeles. Miss Werden is an extremely popular young lady in Los Angeles social circles, and since the announcement of her engagement many affairs have been given in her honor. Anaheim friends extend best wishes! A quarrel which started at a Mexican dance Saturday night ended in a bloody fight at the corner of Lemon and Chartres streets some hours later. Isidro Porres and John Manur were the participants and the fight resulted in Porres going to the county hospital for repairs and Manur landing in jail. Officer Marcus The next new beautiful edifice slated for Anaheim is the Evangelistic Lutheran church to be erected on the sight of the old building at the corner of Emily and Chartres streets, opposite the new grammar school building. This church has been in contemplation for some time, and last week the official board voted to go ahead with it. The building will cost about $30,000. A. P. Nollau, Los Angeles, wealthy manufacturer of knitted goods, who was fined $1000 by Judge Z. B. West a short time ago, after having been found guilty by a jury of a charge of having collided with an automobile driven by E. M. Dozier, near Irvine, and of having gone on without stopping to render aid, Saturday paid the fine at the office of County Clerk J. M. Backs. Nollau had been given ten days in which to pay the fine which was imposed in lieu of a sentence of one year in the penitentiary. U. S. C. freshmen defeated Stanford at football on the latter's grounds on Saturday afternoon by a score of 35 to 0. Ted Kuchel played center, and John and Arch Hawkins were in the back field, Hartranft of Fullerton played with Stanford. On next Saturday afternoon U. S. C. freshmen meet Berkeley at Bovard field. Following the freshman game at Stanford, Stanford's varsity eleven defeated Oregon by a score of 10 to 0. A crowd of ten thousand witnessed the game. A number of U. S. C. men went to San Francisco Saturday evening and spent Sunday in that city and Berkeley. They returned to Los Angeles on the Lark on Monday morning. A quarrel which started at a Mexican dance Saturday night ended in a bloody fight at the corner of Lemon and Chartres streets some hours later. Isidro Porres and John Manur were the participants and the fight resulted in Porres going to the county hospital for repairs and Manur landing in jail. Officer Marcus Andrade saw the two men leaving the dance hall following the quarrel and trailed them, anticipating trouble. They were rolling on the ground fighting like a couple of tom cats when he and John Blecker caught up with them. Mansur was using a knife and had inflicted many wounds on his antagonists face and neck. Andrade arrested Mansur and took Porres to the police station where the surgeon found it necessary to take 45 stitches in order to close the wounds. Motorcycle Officer, J. J. Alder, of El Monte, who was wounded in a spectacular gun battle in which two automobile bandits were killed and a third man wounded, is a Fullerton man. Alder was City Marshal of Fullerton in 1917. He left that position to go into service, and saw action overseas in France. Vernou Meyers was elected City Marshal during his absence, and Alder did not contest the position when he returned, going to El Monte instead, where he was employed as motorcycle officer. Alder was shot through the hip when, with George Hamlin, he attempted to arrest the robbers. A shot from the automobile carrying the bandits was the reply to the two officers' demand that they halt. It was this shot which wounded Alder. One of his robbers was shot dead by Hamlin and the other was seriously wounded. Next Thursday is a holiday. Gov. Stephens has proclaimed it so, and the city trustees endorsed the governor's action. All Anaheim business houses will close, and the people generally will assist in celebrating Armistice Day. Clyde Potter, advertising manager of the Southern Counties Gas company was in this city, Saturday transacting business. He is giving publicity to the sale of high grade Poland China hogs and Jersey cattle which President Bain of the gas company is offering at his ranch near the Palms. About 40 members of the Anaheim Lodge of Elks celebrated Sunday by constructing a house 16x16 feet in size for Mrs. J. Brophy and her three children. Mr. Brophy is an invalid, having been injured recently while at work at the sugar factory and the family have been living in a tent. The Elks furnished all of the building material for the little home which will make the family comfortable for the winter. The Anaheim Beef & Provision Co. has secured a lease on the room at 115 East Fourth street, Santa Ana, recently vacated by the Spicer dry goods store, and will re-establish the Central Market, forced temporarily out of business when the MoFadden Hardware Company took over the room formerly occupied by it. It is understood the company has plans for the installation of high class equipment for the new market and that it will be reopened as soon as the fixtures can be installed. Fixtures formerly used by Spicer are being removed. It probably will require several days to complete the work of Harry D. Riley, Studebaker agent, reports the sale of cars as follows: To H. C. Thompson, 1219 Catalina street, Los Angeles, 1920 Special Six Touring cars to T. W. Hughes, Orange A. J. Dutton, Anaheim, Louis Trujillo, Santa Ana, Simon Toursau of Anaheim and Ray H. Harold, Brea. E. H. Berger, Anaheim rancher, held on a statutory felony charge in connection with an alleged attack on Dorothy Murrhead, 16, daughter of his housekeeper, was remanded to jail, having failed to put up the $3000 bail set by Justice of the Peace Hasson of Buena Park, at Berger's preliminary examination there. Berger was held to answer and bound over for trial. Drs. Johnston and Newkirk of the clinic, have returned from a visit to one of the tubercular sanitariums at Monrovia. Recently the doctors in charge of the Monrovia institution have been working on a new surgical treatment for advanced cases of tuberculosis, and after looking the field over decided to bring their patient to the Anaheim hospital and have the surgeons of the local clinic perform the first operation of its kind that has been done in the south. The operation involved a complete collapse of the diseased lung and removes the opportunity for the development of the tuberculosis on the affected side. The operation was done in two stages, several months apart, and proved to be successful, much to the satisfaction of all concerned. This kind of work opens up an entirely new field in the treatment of tuberculosis and in well selected cases eliminates the disease. Bishop Nuelson, who recently returned to this country from Europe, spoke at the German Methodist church Saturday night on conditions now existing in the Central countries. He is assisting in raising a relief fund. A considerable sum was contributed at the close of his lecture. Tonight at the Fairyland Mae Murray and David Powell will appear on the screen in "The Right to Love". This is easily one of the most lavish if not the most lavish production ever screened. Into it is woven a love theme alluring beyond description; a theme which provides an entirely new departure from anything heretofore attempted. Georgous as a vision of "Arabian Nights." A thrill with intrigue and youthful beauty in the unknown places of Constantinople. She was an American! In Constantinople was a real American man who loved her! Don't miss the rest! A picture as rich as the east; as warm as a woman's heart. A Paramount Picture extraordinary. Played at Grauman's Million Dollar theater, Friday night will be vaudeville, and Viola Dana will be seen Saturday night in "Blackmail." Judge R. Y. Williams last week tried two cases for divorce together. Blas Munoz of Placentia, had filed a suit against his wife, Mrs. E. Munz, alleging immorality. At the same time, a suit had been filed by Mrs. Munoz asking a decree on the ground of cruelty. At the time of the filing neither party knew that the other had brought action. By agreement with the attorneys, Judge Williams telescoped both cases and considered them together. A decree was given Munoz after it had been shown that the cruelty laid to Munoz had taken place on STETSON HATS The Talent for Selecting Just THE RIGHT HAT There are two reasons why Unless some sort of quarters can be found for Fullerton post, American Legion, it is likely the local organization may give up its charter and amalgamate with the Anaheim post. This is the situation explained by men interested in maintaining the Fullerton branch of this great national organization of service men. Since the post was first formed, the meetings have been held wherever room was available but this has been decidedly unsatisfactory and has been reflected in a loss of interest on the part of the members. Major E. J. Marks took up the matter with the directors of the board of trade and an effort will be made to secure permanent quarters where the men may meet and where some social features will also be available. One suggestion is that possibly the directors of the Masonic temple can arrange for the use of a room or so in the basement of that fine new structure. It is said this could be worked out so that it would not interfere with the uses for which the building is primarily intended. Officers from the office of Sheriff C. E. Jackson are following up clues discovered in connection with the burglary of the home of Theodore Gerber, on Sunkist avenue, outside Anaheim Saturday night. The burglars apparently used an automobile in their work. They entered the house through an upper window by means of a ladder, between 7 p.m., and midnight, while the family was attending a party. A peculiar angle in the case lies in the nature of the stuff taken by the looters. The burglars made away principally with what groceries and provisions they could find, as well as two watches. Officers working on the case were of the opinion that the looters took the stuff for their own personal use, and not to sell, for they deliberately passed up many valuable articles of ornamental nature. Nearly all the kitchen equipment in the house including two skillets and a percolater, was removed by the looters. Numerous small trinkets were also missing. The loss was estimated by Gerber at about $150. Sheriff's deputies are of the opinion that the "job" was done by the same men who looted the home of Henry Pohrndorf on Tustin avenue about a month ago, escaping with articles of the same general character, to the amount of about $100. At the meeting of the Fullerton city board of trustees a resolution was unanimously passed protesting against the action of the incorporators of the proposed city of Orangethorpe including the city sewer farm and the city water works plant in their proposed incorporation district. This protest will be presented to the board of supervisors when the incorporators of the proposed new city present their proposition to the board for their official endorsement. The incorporators of the proposed new city claim to have a population in the district they have mapped out of 550 persons. The lines of the district are run in such manner that it takes in the sewer farm and the city water plant, both of which are outside the city limits. City officials are not alarmed over the new city wanting to absorb the ground upon which the sewer farm and water works plant are located as they believe the board of supervisors will not give their sanction to any such action. Company F, National Guards, of Santa Ana, will have a part in the demonstration to be staged in Santa Ana on November 6 during the recruiting campaign for sailors for the battleship California. On that day Governor William D. Stephens and a recruiting party will arrive in Santa Ana. They will leave the Santa Fe depot at 8:30 o'clock, and will parade to Birch Park, where the needs of the state in reference to the battleship named after this state will be presented by the Governor and other speakers. The national guardsmen will furnish the escort for the Governor. Officers of the company say that there STETSON HATS The Talent for Selecting Just THE RIGHT HAT There are two reasons why two out of three men come to us for their hats. One is that we have the best choice of Stetsons in this section. The other is that taste which would almost make us rather lose a sale than have a man go out with a hat that fails to suit him just to the dot. The Stetson Quality Mark in every Stetson Hat F. A.

The report of Manager Sandilands will be submitted to the stockholders, and a board of directors elected for the coming year. Mr. Sandilands says Anaheim has shipped close to 2000 cars of fruit the past season, and indications are that we will send out 3000 cars next year. Motorcycle Officer Victor Barnhill and Otto Landis of San Diego county, while en route to Los Angeles dropped in and paid a visit to Sheriff C. E. Jackson and his deputies. Barnhill and Landis declare that Orange county "certainly has a wonderful record" among autoists for the reason that there is no escape for a speeder once he is arrested for "hitting 'er up." They state that when they are in the northern end of San Diego county and arrest a person, almost invariably they are asked is "Is this Orange county?" "It makes them watch their step," said Barnhill. "Justice Cox has certainly put fear into their hearts." Warren Kerrigan will be seen tonight at the New Grand in "$30,000." Some name for a picture, isn't it? It is "some" picture too. Kerrigan never fails to please so come and see what it means and be entertained also. "$30,000" comes well recommended (the picture, not the money, the latter would be acceptable without recommendation). Added features are a comedy and a Pathe Review. "Milestones" will be shown Friday and Saturday nights. This is a masterful picturization of the phenomenal stage success by Arnold Bennett and Edward Knoblock. "Milestones" may molsten your eyes, but it will bring you more than enough dimples to catch the tears. Romance as beautifully told as a song at twilight. An artistic triumph that sets a new high standard for motion pictures. "Milestones" has romance sweet as the thirty hundredths of an inch of rain fell during the storm last Friday night, making the precipitation so far this season close to an inch. Arthur B. Andrade of Fullerton, was granted a final decree of divorce from Grace Andrade in an order issued by Superior Judge R. Y. Williams. Prof. Tozier and E. A. Beard went up to Los Angeles Monday to select some new instruments for the Elks band. Beard is going to change from a saxophone to an alto. Miss Pauline Vetter is recovering from serious illness due to blood poisoning which followed the extraction of an ulcerated tooth one day last week. She was critically ill for several days, but is now well on the way to recovery. The manager of the carnival company at Placentia who was under arrest by officers on the charge of allowing gambling, was arraigned in Santa Ana Monday and his hearing is set for Wednesday, he entering a plea of not guilty. Harry Jayne, agent for the Los Angeles Times, driving in his car, and Albert Frahm, driving a truck, met with disastrous results at the corner of county road, and Garden Grove road early Tuesday morning. Both machines were badly damaged while Jayne and William Fultz, who was riding with Frahm, were both seriously injured. Mr. Jayne was brought to his home and was found to be suffering from a broken rib and numerous cuts and bruises. Fultz was taken to the sanitarium. His injuries consisted of many bruises. Although pretty badly damaged Mr. Jayne went to the polls and voted later in the day. Ms. Hoffman wife of Philip E.

The demurrer declares that the original complaint does not state whether the association conducts its business for a profit, or is a co-operative society, and that in addition it does not state whether any damage has been done the association by Mrs. Krug's alleged violation of her contract. Leonard Evans is Mrs. Krug's attorney. The complaint in the case asks for damages to the amount of $1190 for the alleged violation of contract by Mrs. Krug, who owns eleven acres of citrus land near Placentia. The violation is said to have consisted in Mrs. Krug selling her oranges to another firm. In the association's articles, which Mrs. Krug is said to have signed, and in which association she is stated to hold stock, a penalty of 50 cents per box is provided in case oranges are sold elsewhere than through the association. The association alleges that Mrs. Krug sold 840 boxes of navels, and 1540 boxes of Valencias and demands $1190 damages in consequence. Mrs. Hoffman, wife of Philip E. Hoffman, head of the English department of the Fullerton high school, passed away suddenly about 11 o'clock Tuesday morning, her sudden passing being a terrific shock to her husband. Mrs. Hoffman was seen by neighbors hanging out some clothing on the line in her yard at the Hoffman home, 133 East Maple avenue shortly before 11 o'clock, she seeming to be in the very best of health. After performing her labors she entered the house. Her husband was attending to his duties at school when he became slightly ill and went to his home, arriving shortly after Mrs. Hoffman had come in from the yard. Upon entering he found his wife prostrated and immediately summoned a physician but Mrs. Hoffman expired shortly after his arrival. The physician gives the cause of death as a stroke of appoplexy. FARM PRICES LOWER The level of prices paid producers of the United States for the principal crops decreased about 15.6 per cent during September; in the last ten years the price level decreased about 3.1 per cent during September, according to the Monthly Crop Reporter. On October 1st the index of prices was about 14.2 per cent lower than a year ago and 36.6 per cent higher than the average of the past ten years on October 1st.
