VOLUME L.
BUILDING ACTIVE ON W. CENTER STREET
KEEPING ITS END UP WITH OTHER SECTIONS OF THE CITY IN IMPROVEMENTS
Sound of the Saw and the Hammer Heard as Far West as City Limits—Clementine Street, Formerly a Country Lane, is Getting Into the Business Section—Walls of Roberts' Opera House Climbing Skyward, and Excavations in Progress for Three Story Hotel.
A couple of weeks ago we mentioned the extensive building operations on North Los Angeles street, and noted some of the principal buildings in course of construction on that thoroughfare. People coming down from the north and entering the city on the boulevard would no doubt jump to the conclusion at first sight that Anaheim was pulling in that direction at the expense of other sections, and was be moved off and one of the finest churches in Anaheim will take its place. We are not informed as to the cost of the new structure, but it is going to class with the other new buildings of like character in the city.
Way down at the west end of the city, on the Southern Pacific tracks, two of the largest and finest packing houses in California, have been recently constructed for two of Anaheim's associations. They belong to the Anaheim Orange Growers' association and the Anaheim Citrus Fruit association, and will be managed in connection with the two older houses controlled by these co-operative companies.
The additions to the Anaheim Union high school group of buildings, work on which began last fall, are nearing completion—in fact some of them are now being used. These new buildings cost $175,000 and may be mentioned as part of the new improvements on West Center.
Another structure which must be credited to West Center street enterprise is the reconstructed Kroeger block, which is being transformed from a two-story building of ancient vintage to a modern three-story block by the new owners, Wilson & Bever. It will soon be completed, and will be one of the most beautiful business buildings in town.
Just what style of building the Knights of Baltham temple at the corner?
A couple of weeks ago we mentioned the extensive building operations on North Los Angeles street, and noted some of the principal buildings in course of construction on that thoroughfare. People coming down from the north and entering the city on the boulevard would no doubt jump to the conclusion at first sight that Anaheim was pulling in that direction at the expense of other sections, and was stretching out its arms toward Fullerton. But if these travelers would follow the main thoroughfare into the other three sections of the city their senses would be greeted by the song of the saw and hammer and the smell of paint and plaster to an equal degree. Anaheim is pulling in four directions at once, and unless the boundary lines are shortly extended a large portion of the city will lie out in the country.
While a traveler coming in from the north might think the city was pulling toward the city limits of Fullerton, a visitor entering from the west would be certain it is stretching its arms toward the ocean, and is moving its business center nearer the water. Five years ago no Anaheimer would have dared to predict that today business houses would have been built as far west as Clementine street, and yet some of the finest buildings in town are being erected on that thoroughfare. A couple of years ago when Theodore Roberts bought the Deutsch tract, the block fronting Center street, between Lemon and Clementine, was practically a barren waste. There was nothing on it but a gasoline station, the twenty-five-year-old Metropolitan building, and an old decaying wooden building which had been built in the early days of the pioneers. Today the Center and Lemon street frontage of this block are solid brick, the ground floor divided into numerous business rooms that are bee hives of industry.
In the center of this block, in the rear of the store rooms on Center and Lemon, the New Roberts opera house, the finest theatre in Orange county, is beginning to rear its walls high above the surrounding buildings. The entrance to this theatre is on the Center street side. The lobby leads back between business houses to the pit of the theatre, which has its rear walls on Clementine street.
Just north of the theatre building on Clementine street, the brick walls of Ross Brothers' bungalow court are rapidly going up. This is a unique building embracing all the conveniences as part of the new improvements on West Center.
Another structure which must be credited to West Center street enterprise is the re-constructed Kroeger block, which is being transformed from a two-story building of ancient vintage to a modern three-story block by the new owners, Wilson & Bever. It will soon be completed, and will be one of the most beautiful business buildings in town.
Just what style of building the Knights of Ppthias temple at the corner of Lemon and Center street will be, is not yet known, but it is promised it will be in keeping with the modern architecture of the city. The Dickel corner was purchased by the Knights of Pythias temple at the corner erect a temple on the site, but it was announced at the time that work on the building might not begin for two years.
This list does not include residences and buildings of smaller importance, nor those talked of but not yet definitely decided upon. They are numerous.
NEW RATES ALLOWED
EDISON COMPANY
Southern California Corporation Granted Permission to Change.
Details were received today by District Manager W. L. Deimling of the rates established by the state railroad commission for the consumers of Southern California Edison company, effective April 20th. Largely as a result of the marked improvement in water conditions and the completion of additional water power plants, economies in operation are to be made by Southern California Edison company which cover a reduction in rates to the consumers of from six two twenty percent.
Application was made by the Edison company to the railroad commission for the fixing of regular rates and hearings, bearing upon all pertinent questions, were started on the 16th of September last, and continued through the remainder of the year, at which municipalities, farm bureauans and consumers were represented by attorneys.
In the establishment of reasonable rates the commission has granted the company a return on the capital invested sufficient to permit of financing the water power developments contemplated, all of which are necessary to southern and central California's industrial and agricultural growth.
Every day or so so California Valencia a new idea and a big exhibition given in the city on it was decided to tent and hold there show, merely as a noise. This proved suggestion, and now have prepared an end will be equally popular till the judges have cessions and the latest innovation is to the babies of alnia, and it promises success. There are fants under five years Sunny Southland, who knows her baby is other woman's bad thousands of them judges will have and their hands.
As now planned, open May 17 and three days, with local sclians on hand to thorough examination.

Lemon, the New Roberts Opera house,
the finest theatre in Orange county, is beginning to rear its walls high above
the surrounding buildings. The entrance to this theatre is on the Center
street side. The lobby leads back between business houses to the pit of the
theatre, which has its rear walls on Clementine street.
Just north of the theatre building on Clementine street, the brick walls of Ross Brothers' bungalow court are rapidly going up. This is a unique building, embodying all the conveniences of modern apartment houses. It is a two-story structure, and will cover a considerable portion of a quarter of a block of ground, and its cost is $40,000. It will provide happy homes for fourteen families when completed, and, no doubt, forty families are already casting covetous eyes toward it.
If a man who left Anaheim two or three years ago returned today and saw a fine three-story hotel going up at the corner of Clementine and Center streets, no doubt he would believe that he was seeing things that ain't so. But work of excavating for the Eisenhauer building is now under way, and soon the walls will begin to go up. This will be a modern three-story structure, the lower floor being cut into store rooms and the two upper being fitted up for a hotel. The Anaheim Pharmacy, owned by Mr. Eisenhauer, will occupy the corner room.
Business hasn't reached as far west as the Christian church corner yet, consequently that congregation has decided to hold on to its ground. The old building, which was finished twenty-five years ago this month, and which was considered a splendid structure in its day, has grown too small and too antiquated for the present large membership, consequently it will shortly
In the establishment of reasonable rates the commission has granted the company a return on the capital invested sufficient to permit of financing the water power developments contemplated, all of which are necessary to southern and central California's industrial and agricultural growth. The return granted by the railroad commission, in addition to being sufficient to attract the necessary new capital for development work, allows a sufficient earning to safeguard the company's dividend policy of eight per cent, and a financial reserve is also provided to insure the continuity of this dividend policy.
Many holders of the company's common stock are residents of Anaheim and the surrounding territory.
"The new schedules," said District Manager W. L. Delmsling today, "affect all lighting, heating and power service based on meter readings, to take effect on and after April 20.
"The lighting, cooking and industrial power rates indicate a reduction of approximately ten per cent over the rates that have been effective during the past year. A general reduction of proximately twenty per cent is noticeable in the agricultural schedules.
"Notifications of the new schedules will be sent to each of our customers in this section giving information as to which schedule service will be billled under. Where optional schedules obtain, consumers will give a copy of each schedule, with a request that a selection be made as to which is desired, for Edison service rendered after April 20th."

PLAN BABY SHOW AT VALENGIA EXHIBITION
ALL SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA INFANTS UNDER FIVE ELIGIBLE TO CONTEST.
Red Cross Lecturer from San Francisco Will be Present to Give Some Pertinent Information Relative to Rearing of Babies—Big Tents to Cover Three Acres of Ground, Arrived in Anaheim Sunday and Will be Erected on Ground May 7.
Every day or so some director of the California Valencia Orange Show has a new idea and a new stunt is added to the big exhibition which is to be given in the city on May. A week ago it was decided to set up an auxiliary tent and hold therein an automobile show, merely as a side issue of the big noise. This proved to be a popular suggestion, and now the managers have prepared another stunt which
PLACENTIA BURGLARS CONFESS THEIR GUILT
Declare They Losted Sweeldom Store on Night of February 3.
Having made a voluntary confession, according to the authorities, of their part in the looting of the Swelldom store at Placentia of more than $3,000 worth of merchandise, Adolfo Pena and Manuel Ramos, Mexicans, were bound over to the superior court, following their preliminary hearing in the justice court before Justice Leo Goepper.
Both Pena and Ramos were returned to the county jail in default of $2,000 bail each. Antonio Garcia, who was brought up for examination on the same complaint that was filed against the other two defendants, was released on motion of Deputy District Attorney Roland Thompson. No testimony was introduced that would implicate Garcia in the robbery.
The Placentia store was robbed on the night of February 3. Among the articles of clothing stolen were seventy-five suits of men's clothing, several bolts of dry goods and silks and a quantity of women's wearing apparel. A number of suits, silks and other goods, recovered in Los Angeles by the authorities, was brought into court as evidence and identified by H. J. Stern and Malter, co-partners and owners of the store.
Deputy Sheriff O. K. Carr told of an alleged confession made by Adolfo
AUTO SHOW NOW IS PRINCIPAL ATTRACTION
ALL ORANGE COUNTY FLOCKING TO SANTA ANA TO SEE THE FINE DISPLAY.
Exhibit Greater Than That of the First Show, and Attendance Promises to be Much' Larger—Decorations Cost $5000—Nearly One Hundred and Fifty Motor Car, Truck, Tractor and Accessory Dealers Have Space in the Huge Tens.
Santa Ana is the rendezvous for motoring fans this week, the occasion being the second annual auto show put on the Orange County Auto Trade association, comprising 140 motor car, tractor and accessory dealers. The show opened Monday afternoon, Auril 11, at 2 o'clock and will continue all week to and including Saturday, April 11, at 2 o'clock and will continue 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. each day, with musical entertainment from 2 p.m. to 10 p.m.
Every day or so some director of the California Valencia Orange Show has a new idea and a new stunt is added to the big exhibition which is to be given in the city on May. A week ago it was decided to set up an auxiliary tent and hold therein an automobile show, merely as a side issue of the big noise. This proved to be a popular suggestion, and now the managers have prepared another stunt which will be equally popular—at least until the judges have handed in their decisions and the prizes awarded. The latest innovation is a baby show, open to the babies of all Southern California, and it promises to be a howling success. There are thousands of infants under five years of age in the Sunny Southland, and as each woman knows her baby is far superior to any other woman's baby she ought to be thousands of them in the contest. The judges will have an unenviable job on their hands.
As now planned, the baby show will open May 17 and continue for two or three days, with local and outside physicians on hand to give the entries a thorough examination.
In connection with the baby show, there will be an exhaustive display of such baby articles as carriages, food, and so on, showing which are detrimental and which helpful to the child's development. The American Red Cross of San Francisco has promised to send a lecturer with illustrative slides, who will give daily lectures on the health and care of babies.
The baby show will be housed in a special tent, adjoining the main exhibit tent. An important feature of the baby show will be a free checking nursery in use throughout the Valencia Orange Show, where mothers may leave their infants while examining the exhibits and participating in the orange show pleasures.
Tenting for the big show arrived in Anaheim Sunday afternoon, and it required seven trucks to transport it. More was expected in a day or two from the National Orange Show at San Bernardino. The canvass was stored temporarily in the Anaheim Walnut association's packing house, where it will remain until the Elk Park ground are cleaned. The tests will be erected on May 7, which will allow ten days for decorating and installing the exhibits.
Anaheim is to be decorated as never before during the show. Streamers and banners will be strung across the place.
The Placement store was robbed on the night of February 3. Among the articles of clothing stolen were seventy-five suits of men's clothing, several bolts of dry goods and silks and a quantity of women's wearing apparel. A number of suits, silks and other goods, recovered in Los Angeles by the authorities, was brought into court as evidence and identified by H. J. Stern and Malter, co-partners and owners of the store.
Deputy Sheriff O. K. Carr told of an alleged confesson made by Adolfo Pena in the district attorney's office following his arrest in Los Angeles. Carr said Pena told him and other officials that the robbery was planned in Los Angeles and that he, Ramos and three other Mexicans drove to Placentia in an automobile to commit the deed.
Pena, according to Carr, said that they arrived in Placentia on the evening of February 3, and that they were afraid to tackle the "job" for several hours because a number of persons were walking about the streets and they were afraid they might be detected. Shortly after midnight they began operations. While one man sat at the wheel of the car, which had been driven into an alley beside the store, the other five forced an entrance through the back door and then loaded the loot into the machine, according to Carr.
Carr also told of recovering the greater part of the loot in Los Angeles. He went to that city with Attorney A. P. Nelson and Charles Carillo. There they were joined by two Los Angeles county officials and started out to recover the stolen property. Following directions alleged to have been given by Pena they went first to 2005 Sacramento street, thence to 1522 Lemon street, thence to 341 Aliso street and thence to a restaurant at 681 South Spring street.
According to Carr, the thieves stopped first at 2005 Sacramento street and divided up the loot there. The loot recovered from each place was bundled up and brought back to Santa Ana. Nothing was found at the restaurant on Spring street except an empty suit case, which is alleged to have been used by the thieves.
Carillo followed Carr on the witness stand and told of the alleged confession made by Pena and the subsequent recovery of the loot in Los Angeles' His testimony practically corroborated that of Officer Carr.
The arrest of the two Mexicans followed their attempts to dispose of some of the stolen goods in Los Angeles.
Santa Ana is the rendezvous for motoring fans this week, the occasion being the second annual auto show put on the Orange County Auto Trade association, comprising 140 motor car, track, tractor and accessory dealers. The show opened Monday afternoon, Auril 11, at 2 o'clock and will continue all week to and including Saturday, April 11, at 2 o'clock and will continue 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. each day, with musical entertainment from 2 p.m. to 10 p.m.
Of particular beauty in the two large tents at Second and Broadway, Santa Ana, with their 30,000 feet of exhibit space, is the decorative scheme which has cost more than $5000 to carry out, and which brought forth enthusiastic comment on the part of show visitors.
Two blocks from the show, one glimpses the tall, white gateway at the main entrance, modeled somewhat after the entrance to the New York public library, with white lions of papier mache on either side of the two columns.
Papier mache is also used extensively in the interior of the tents with a most pleasing effect, in the large fountain just inside the main entrance, in the fifty Venetian lamp posts along the aisles, in ornamental signs before each booth, and in fifty four-feet reflectors above the exhibits, an important part of the indirect lighting system which is carried out entirely in both tents. The lamp posts, light reflectors, and borders of signs are in rich copper tones, blue and gold art panels in the Venetian lights add greatly to the beauty of the scene. The Papier Mache Art Shop of Los Angeles is responsible for this feature of the auto show, with Manager H. C. Warden and his assistant, E. C. Cook, in charge of the installation.
The show is a riot of color, with the papier mache features, flag decorations of red, white and blue and a red and white wall border with vertical strips of red and white 24 inches wide. The flag and wall decorations were installed under the supervision of Art Fontaine, of the Swanfeldt Tent and Awning Co. The two monster tents are from Downie Brothers.
Another pleasing feature of the auto show is the program of musical entertainment from 2 p.m. to 10 p.m. each day. The Vassar Girls' orchestra will play afternoons, alternating between the two tents, and the Raymond Quartet will provide harmony in the evening. Miss Vora Esmay, talented Fullerton girl whose singing was the subject of much favorable comment at the
More was expected in a day or two from the National Orange Show at San Bernardino. The canvass was stored temporarily in the Anaheim Walnut association's packing house, where it will remain until the Elk Park ground is cleaned. The teyts will be erected on May 7, which will allow ten days for decorating and installing the exhibits.
Anaheim is to be decorated as never before during the show. Streamers and banners will be strung across the streets for two or three blocks each way from the intersection of Los Angeles and Center streets, and at night thousands of colored lights will illuminate the streets.
GARDEN GROVE PLANNING
BIG CELEBRATION
Neighboring Town Rejoicing Over the Erection of First Oil Rig.
Plans are now well underway for the big celebration to be held at Garden Grove, Saturday, April 16th, on the Chaffee lease No. 1, the occasion being the completion of Garden Grove's first test oil rig, and great interest and enthusiasm is being shown in the coming event. The affair will be supervised by the Garden Grove Petroleum Co., and a large crowd is anticipated. There will be prominent speakers from Los Angeles, Long Beach, Santa Ana and other neighboring towns, and last but by no means least, a big, free old fashioned barbecue. Provisions are being made to serve at least one thousand people at this barbecue, to which everyone is most cordially invited.
There will be various entertainment features, including good band music, singing etc.
Charged with the theft of an automobile belonging to Stato Senator Walter Eden and also with several burglaries, Melville Bowles, 22, formerly of Orange, was arraigned before Acting Justice of the Peace Leo Geopper Monday. His preliminary hearing was set for April 22 at 10 a.m., and his ball was fixed at $2,000. He is in the county jail in default.
Bowles was arrested in a Los Angeles hotel Saturday evening by Deputy Sheriff Chas. Holbrook and Under Sheriff E. E. French. According to the officers, he has made a complete confession of the theft of Senator Eden's car and two burglary "jobs," one of which was committed at St Helena, Napa county, and the other at Sacramento.
Senator Eden's car was recovered in San Francisco about a week ago, after Bowles' alleged co-partner, Clarence A. Noyes, had driven the machine from Sacramento. Noyes is now in jail at Sacramento, charged with looting a tailor shop there.
Fontaine, of the Swanfeldt Tent and Awning Co. The two monster tents are from Downie Brothers.
Another pleasing feature of the auto show is the program of musical entertainment from 2 p.m. to 10 p.m. each day. The Vassar Girls' orchestra will play afternoons, alternating between the two tents, and the Raymond Quarret will provide harmony in the evening. Miss Vora Esmay, talented Fullerton girl whose singing was the subject of much favorable comment at the last San Bernardino orange show, will sing both afternoon and evening accompanied by Miss Ruth Armstrong, of Santa Ana. In addition to all this the 30-piece band of the Orange County Auto Trade association will give an open air concert each evening of the show. The two planos used in the tents were provided through the courtesy of the Chandler Music Store and Carl G. Strock.
Record crowds are seeing the show, and it is certain the attendance this year will reach a new mark with thousands of visitors in attendance not only from Orange county points, but from many adjoining districts as well.
The auto show committee which includes Harry D. Riley, of Anaheim; Albert Sitton, of Fullerton, and C. H. McCausland, of Santa Ana, are to be congratulated upon the excellence of their work. The 1921 show at Santa Ana is a fitting sequel to the splendid 1920 show held at Anaheim.
It seems that the Western Union does not think very well of the Robins property at Richfield and is abandoning No. 1, after drilling to a little over 2200 feet. A complicated fishing job causing the loss of the hole, probably had something to do with the move to abandon.

SUNFLOWER BANKER PAYS
VISIT TO ANAHEIM
Mr. and Mrs. Masterman, of Wichita, Call on Old Friends Here.
Mr. and Mrs. E. E. Masterman, of Wichita, Kansas, who have been spending the past three months in Southern California, came over from Long Beach Monday on a short visit to their old friends, Mrs. H. L. and W. E. Wortman. Mrs. Masterman is an official of the Kansas National Bank one of the biggest financial institutions in the Sunflower state. He and his wife make frequent visits to California and expect to come oftener as they grow older.
Mr. Masterman thinks Anaheim is the most beautiful little city in the world—at least that portion of the world that he has seen. He was here three years ago, and declares improvements have been so extensive that he could not recognize it as the same town. All easterners who visit Southern California, fall in love with it, and all who are able financially to choose their place of residence, of course, resolve to eventually make it their permanent home. Like thousands of others, Mr. and Mrs. Masterman will probably some day bring out their household gods and decide to permanently abide with us. Mr. Masterman will not grow orange as a pastime.
NOTED ATTORNEY TALKS ON OLD ANAHEIM
EARL ROGERS ADDRESSES BIG AUDIENCE AT CHAMBER OF COMMERCE MEETING
Relates His Recollections of Former Days, and Pays Eloquent Tribute to Present City—Best Town Between Portland and Tia Juana, He Declares—Noted Paintings Srom Laguna Beach May Be Exhibited at Our Orange Show.
Earl Rogers, the eminent Los Angeles attorney, was the chief speaker at the regular meeting of the Chamber of Commerce, held at the high school auditorium Tuesday evening. Mr. Rogers was advertised to speak on "Reminiscences of Old Anaheim," as he had been a frequent visitor here in former days, and was intimately acquainted with Anaheim as it used to be. His fecund recollection of old Anaheim, he said, was that it was only a short
Y. M. C. A. WILL PICNIC
AT THE COUNTY PARK
Organization Preparing for a Field Meet on April 30.
Details of the Orange county Y. M. C. A. picnic and field day at Orange county park. Saturday, April 30, were arranged by the Y. M. C. A. athletic committee at James' cafe Monday.
Letters containing entry blanks and details of the meet have been sent from the Y. M. C. A. office to all the C club leaders in the county. According to information in the letters, the field day and picnic will start at 9:30 a.m.
The meet will be an all-day affair in order to give parents and friends of the Y. M. C. A. boys, an opportunity to see the entire meet and enjoy a picnic luncheon and musical program at the same time.
The boys will be divided into four classes for the meet. The division will be affected by weight, the classes consisting of 90-pound, 110-pound, 125-pound and the unlimited sections. A separate series of events is planned for each division.
Ribbons will be given for first, second and third places in each event. A large ribbon will be given to high point men in each class. The high point man in the meet will receive a pennant and the club having the largest number of points will be given a cup.
The meet will start at 10 a.m., following the weighing of all contestants, which will start at 9:30. The preliminary events will be run off in the morning and the finals will take place in the afternoon. Following the events of the day there will be a big weiner bake at 5:30 p.m., at which ribbons will be awarded to the winners and a program of stunts will be given by the Earl Rogers, the eminent Los Angeles attorney, was the chief speaker at the regular meeting of the Chamber of Commerce, held at the high school auditorium Tuesday evening. Mr. Rogers was advertised to speak on "Reminiscences of Old Anaheim," as he had been a frequent visitor here in former days, and was intimately acquainted with Anaheim as it used to be. His fondest recollection of old Anaheim, he said, was that it was only a short distance from the brewery, and was a very interesting place to come to from Santa Ana. He paid an eloquent tribute to the present Anaheim, declaring it to be the best town between Portland and Tia Juana.
Mr. Rogers stated that he could not understand why ranchers in this section were so anxious to sell out to easterners. If the land isn't worth the money they get for it, he said, the owners are bunkering the men they sell to, and if it is worth it they should keep it and learn to produce from it. In his drives about this region during the past few days, he said, he had seen wonderful orange groves with a green and healthy appearance, that produced profitable crops for their owners, and standing beside them would perhaps be a grove, yellow-leaved and sickly, showing want of expert care. Preservation of the soil, he said, was what made one grove productive and profitable and the other non-productive. He used this illustration to emphasize his argument that preservation of law and order was what made this nation great and prosperous, and it was the duty of every citizen to uphold the law and help maintain order. Unless we did this, he declared, the chaps and lawlessness that was disrupting and ruining other countries would destroy our's soon.
Fifty thousand dollars worth of oil paintings, belonging to the Laguna Beach Art association, may be on exhibition at the Valencia Orange Show. Negotiations are now on between the Chamber of Commerce and the art association and a committee from Laguna Beach will meet with representatives of the chamber in this city Monday for the purpose of arranging the matter. This will be an interesting addition to the many attractions of the show, as some of America's greatest artists belong to the Laguna Beach association and produce their paintings at Orange county's great art center.

"Hooch fruit," as a substitute for home brewed liquor, will result if the experiment of V. H. Chanlear, prominent watermelon grower at Burlington, Colorado, proves a success. Chanlear, who has made hundreds of experiments, declares he has found a way whereby every watermelon can be made into a natural still.
When the watermelon is about half grown, Chanlear's method is to plug it, insert a yeast combination of his own manufacture, then seal the hole with sealing wax. The yeast, acting on the sugar content of the melon, will develop an unusual amount of alcohol and at the same time the growth of the melon will be greatly stimulated by its own invigorator. Chanlear claims. Ninety per cent of the melons in a field will weigh more than thirty pounds each after given the yeast treatment, he said.
Several business men have contracted for an acre each of the melons with a ten per cent kick at a dollar per melon. Chanlear has turned over his contracts and methods to the Burlington Melon Growers', association which will test the experiment on an extensive scale.
Too much notoriety, correspondence and annoyance was Chanlear's reason for giving up the project.
