Porter will cooperate with the Orange County Clerical club in "the making of a clean beach morally and a great playground at this ideal resort for the citizens of this territory," according to a report which went forward Friday to members of the club from the committee of five appointed to organize a large committee for taking up with the city council of the beach city strict enforcement of the bathing suit ordinance there. The five men appointed to the committee were the Rev. John Oliver, Santo Ana; Walter F. Grigg, Garden Grove; L. O. Bostwick, Balboa; M. L. Pearson, Orange, and George Chessum, Santa Ana, county secretary of the Y. M. C. A. The Revs. Oliver, Bostwick and J. A. Geissinger, of Anaheim, recently went to Newport, where they discussed the matter with the officials. The report is based upon the investigations of these three men. The committee of five advises that it is organizing a committee of twenty-five citizens from the county to go into the matter and requests that each pastor send in the names of one or two men prominent in each of their sections who will serve on such committee. "Our inquiry brought out the fact that Newport Beach has a splendid ordinance, a copy of which is enclosed, covering the matter of bathing suits which are to be worn while bathing, and also prohibiting all dancing upon public street, sidewalk, avenue, or alley in the city of Newport Beach, clad or attired in a bathing suit or costume except at such time or times when such person is about to bathe in the Pacific ocean or Newport bay, and Iₛ on his or her direct and immediate way to the place of bathing from the place where such person becomes so clad or attired, or is returning from bathing by a direct and immediate way to the place₃ where such bathing suit or costume is to be removed; provided, however, that this section shall not apply to any person, made or female, who shall have upon and wear on the outside of such suit or costume a coat, cloak, bath-robe, or ulster, obscuring the body of such person from the shoulders to the knees. "Section 2. It is hereby declared to be unlawful and a violation of this ordinance for a person to appear in any public place in the city of Newport Beach, including the beach or the shore of the Pacific ocean or the shore of Newport bay, wearing or clad only in a bathing suit worn in the city of Newport Beach, and it shall be of such a length that there shall not be more than ten inches between the bottom of the bathing suit and the knees of the wearer thereof; provided, however, this section shall not apply to persons engaged in any swimming meet, contest, or exhibition which is held by a regularly organized club, society or organization and shall have the approval of the marshal of the city of Newport Beach in writing, duly signed by him. "Section 3. Every act done in violation of this ordinance shall be and constitute a misdemeanor and any person found guilty of any such misdemeanor by a court of competent jurisdiction shall be punished by a fine not exceeding $100."

"Our inquiry brought out the fact that Newport Beach has a splendid ordinance, a copy of which is enclosed, covering the matter of bathing suits which are to be worn while bathing, and also prohibiting all dancing in bathing suits," reads the report sent to the county pastors. Continuing, the report says: "We ask your most hearty co-operation in helping to create public sentiment for the right observation of this ordinance by the people visiting Newport Beach from your community. Let us give the fullest co-operation to the trustees and marshal of the city of Newport Beach in making this the cleanest and most ideal playground in the Golden State. It is extremely unfortunate that some young folks, and especially groups of young men, have gone down to this beach with the idea that they could do just as they pleased—that there was no law to be kept and no ordinance to be enforced. As a result of this lawlessness, a serious condition has developed at the beach calls for vigorous handling and more adequate policing. The trustees and marshal realize this as well as the committee, and we can help them to dispel this illusion in the minds of the people and have promised the trustees the fullest co-operation of the clerical club to this end." The bathing ordinance at Newport Beach is known as No. 133. It follows: "Section 1. It is hereby declared unlawful and a violation of this ordinance for any person to go or be TEN NIGHTS IN A BARRED ROOM While his pretty young wife patiently waits his return in a fashionable Los Angeles hotel, William H. Burgess, San Francisco business man, Friday began serving in the Orange county jail a ten-day sentence in connection with a charge of speeding. Burgess recently bought a Pierce-Arrow sedan and he could not resist the temptation of "trying it out" when he hit an open stretch on the Irvine boulevard. He "opened her up" and "she" made 62 miles an hour through the 330-foot trap that proved the undoing of Bebe Daniels. Traffic Officer H. S. Warner arrested Burgess April 18. The defendant appeared before Justice of the Peace Cox the following day, waived a jury trial and pleaded guilty. Justice Cox gave him the customary sentence of ten days for going over 50 and then Burgess declared he would appeal to the superior court. He put up $200 cash ball and secured his release. Thursday afternoon Burgess and his young wife drove up to the west side of the court house. She waited in the machine while Burgess went in and introduced himself to Judge Cox. He stated that he had been thinking it over and with a deep feeling of reluctance would withdraw his appeal and take his medicine if it had to be taken. "I'll admit that I was speeding," said Burgess, "but you know how it is when you have a new car and you come into an open stretch of road with nothing in your way. I wanted to 'try her out' and see just what she would do. There were no other machines in sight and I'm sure no lives were endangered. A ten-day jail sentence is not a very nice thing to go into the records of a good family, but if I've got to serve it I Savings Bank, pledgee for F. M. Dowling and Bertha Paul Dowling to Frank M.

President Hale reported on the meeting with the managers of the Amalgamated Oil Co. and the Hurley-Smith company at the Amalgamated lease April 21. This meeting was with regard to the gas from the Amalgamated lease. The matter was referred to the new oil committee for further investigation. Attorney Head presented draft of an agreement with the Yorba Irrigation company. Attorney Head instructed to prepare new agreement and present same for consideration at the next meeting of the board. Robert Marsh, of the Robert Marsh & Co., came before the board regarding the sale of the Pedley ranch in Riverside county. This was referred to the directors of the S.A. R. Dev. Co. Mr. Marsh also enquired of the leasing of the Yorba serervoir for oil. This was referred to the oil committee. It was moved by Miller, seconded by Thamer, that a check for $10.00 be presented Frances Smith for services rendered the investigating committee. Mr. Bentley, representing F. A. Gillespie, came before the board regarding oil lease on Rivas and de Shorb tract. It was moved by Tuffree, seconded by Holmes, that the company accept a release of the oil lease to F. A. Gillespie on the tract of land described in deed book 123, page 314, records of Orange county; and also on the tract of land described in deed book 352, page 280, records of Los Angeles county, and grant to F. A. Gillespie ninety (90) days in which to remove his oil well rig, also grant Mr. Bentley the privilege within 90 days of a new lease without a bonus, provided that the company has not leased the above described tract within the 90 days to another operator. Director Annalis reported that the Cypress avenue pipe line between the North Branch ditch and J. P. des Granges corner is not large enough to carry sufficient water to meet the demand. This was left to the ditch committee and the superintendent to in ance would withdraw his appeal and take his medicine if it had to be taken. "I'll admit that I was speeding," said Burgess, "but you know how it is when you have a new car and you come into an open stretch of road with nothing in your way. I wanted to 'try her out' and see just what she would do. There were no other machines in sight and I'm sure no lives were endangered. A ten-day jail sentence is not a very nice thing to go into the records of a good family, but if I've got to serve it I might as well begin today." Judge Cox sympathized with Burgess but told him that it was his duty to mete out such sentences to motorists who burn up the highways at a speed in excess of fifty miles. Cox then gave permission to Burgess to go out to Mrs. Burgess, who was waiting in their machine, and talk it over. Burgess came back in about a half hour and told Judge Cox that he would return to Los Angeles and put his wife in a hotel and return to begin his jail sentence. Burgess is president of the Burgess Auto Specialty company, 831 Van Ness avenue, San Francisco. He sells lenses and rear view wind deflectors. Rufus Acosta, serving a ten-year sentence in the state penitentiary at San Quentin from Orange county for murder, was stabbed during Saturday night by a fellow prisoner, Manuel Lopez, from Fresno county, and died within a short time, prison officials announced. Acosta was stabbed in a lung, while in the prison dormitory, with a sharp knife obtained from the shoe shop. The officials said they did not know what prompted Lopez to kill Acosta. Lopez is 24 years old and has served almost two years of a five-year term for burglary. Acosta was 20 and had served about half of his sentence.
