Forest Pageant In S. B. Mountains Play Staged to Give Lesson in Preservation of Forests Aiding in the statewide forestry preservation movement, Garnet Holme, pageant director of the United States national park service, has been brought to Southern California to introduce a new lesson in preservation. Through a co-operative plan with conservation and reforestation associations, Holme will produce his pageant, "Ersa of the Forests," at Wrightwood, below the Los Angeles County park, in the San Bernardino range, September 4 and 5. "Ersa of the Forests" is the pageant produced in the Mariposa grove of the Sequoia national forest two years ago with forestry preservation as its theme. The message of the pageant illustrates by the drama the price of carelessness in the forests, against which the Southern California counties are requesting a $1,000,000 federal appropriation. In the north Holme's pageant was produced under the auspices of the Save the Redwoods League, a preservation association. It has been indorsed by the Conservation Association of Southern California, the American Reforestation Association and the Tri-Counties Reforestation committee, all actively supporting the production at Wrightwood. Col. John White, superintendent of the National Sequoia park, wrote of the pageant: "It is safe to say that no man, woman or child who has seen 'Ersa' ever will be careless with fire in the forests. We believe the players and Holme are valuable assistants in educating the public to a sense of responsibility in the preservation of the scenery and natural timber lands of California." Doris Schuhow, who played the title role in "Ramona," will be cast as Ersa, the keeper of the forests, in the pageant. The pageant will be produced in the pines at Wrightwood, which will be illuminated.

Barbecue Dinner At County Park Miss Florence Carpenter, Mrs. Harry De Miller and Homer Wallace entertained a number of friends Wednesday evening with a progressive party. A barbecued steak dinner was first enjoyed at the Orange County park, the party later proceeding to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Harry De Miller, where the evening was spent in bridge. Five tables were occupied by the players, the high scores being made by Miss Frances Reed and Herbert Eugene Smith. The guests were Mr. and Mrs. Harry De Miller, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Jerzy, Mrs. Ida Benson, Mrs. S. W. Wallace, Homer Wallace, Miss Frances Reed, Miss Mildred Henry of Anaheim, Mr. and Mrs. A. D. Carpenter, Miss Florence Carpenter, Miss Oral Carpenter, Mr. and Mrs. Lyman Shields of Fulerton, Mr. and Mrs. Ernest McIntyre, Herbert Eugene Smith, Robert Hyatt of Los Angeles, also little Misses Charlotte Jerzy and Alice Wallace and Morgan Jerry of Anaheim, and "It is safe to say that no man, woman or child who has seen 'Ersa' ever will be careless with fire in the forests. We believe the players and Holme are valuable assistants in educating the public to a sense of responsibility in the preservation of the scenery and natural timber lands of California." Dorise Schuhow, who played the title role in "Ramona," will be cast as Ersa, the keeper of the forests, in the pageant. The pageant will be produced in the pines at Wrightwood, which will be illuminated. Orange County Cows Meet Requirements Word has been received that the herd of dairy cattle belonging to L. E. Platt, a prominent dairyman of the Greenville section, has successfully passed all of the requirements necessary to become federally accredited. Mr. Platt entered into an agreement with the United States department of agriculture about two years ago whereby the government, enabled by an act known as the Accredited Herd bill, agreed to test all of the animals in the herd for tuberculosis free of charge. The owner agreed to have the herd tested annually or semi-annually, and if any reactors were found, to remove them from the herd. After the herd had passed two semi-annual or one annual clean test, it was eligible for accreditation. Usually a herd that has never been tested for tuberculosis will be tested semi-annually until having passed two clean such tests, after which it is tested annually. Animals cannot be introduced into the herd without loss of accreditation, unless they come from accredited herds or qualify for accreditation. This necessitates their isolation from the herd until such time as they qualify. Progressive dairymen everywhere are fast taking advantage of this arrangement with the government, as it enables them to eliminate their reactors with a minimum cost and gives them a certificate of health that is recognized everywhere. Livestock men are recognizing that animals free from tuberculosis are more free from secondary diseases than those so infected. Tuberculosis undoubtedly tends to reduce the vitality of the animal and lessen its resistance to other diseases. U. S. C. Reorganizing Preparatory Division Stressing adaptation of instruction to the needs of the individual high school pupil, the University of Southern California is reorganizing its college preparatory department into a junior-senior high school this fall, introducing work in the seventh and eighth grades, as well as the ninth, tenth, eleventh and twelfth grades, and providing a "model school" on the campus for the observation and practice work required by the state board of university students training to be teachers. Duck Season Now 15 Days Shorter Opens October 15 and Closes January 15, This Year Much has been said in the public prints of late of the change in the season for duck shooting, as promulgated by the secretary of agriculture earlier in the year. This change shortened the California season by 15 days, opening it under federal law on October 16, and closing under provisions of the state law on January 15. Under the laws existing prior to the new order issued by the United State department of agriculture, the season extended from October 1 to January 15, or three and one-half months in all. The effect of this order was at once recognized by the California fish and game commission and, according to a statement issued recently by President Izadore Zelbach of that body, the commission long ago went on record as being in favor of a law to be submitted to the coming session of the California legislature adding 15 days to the present existing season and thus closing same on January 31, instead of January 15. This resolution was unanimously passed by the commission at its regular meeting on May 20, 1926. The effect of this announcement will be an interesting one to California sportsmen, many of whom derive their principal pleasure in the field from the chase of the festive mardard, teal, canvass-back and sprigs. Where they had expected to be deprived of 15 days of the best shooting of the year, they now have the assurance of the California fish and game commission that that body will not only sponsor the proposed law calling for an extended season, but will actively support same before both houses of the legislature. There seems to be but little doubt but that the bill will eventually become a law. Mr. Zellerbach, in commenting upon this matter, said: "Quite naturally, the provisions of the Federal Migratory Bird act, governing the duck season, supersede the state law, hence the ruling that the opening date be set as October 16. However, we are not willing that California sportsmen should be deprived of their pleasure, and will Stressing adaptation of instruction to the needs of the individual high school pupil, the University of Southern California is reorganizing its college preparatory department into a junior-senior high school this fall, introducing work in the seventh and eighth grades, as well as the ninth, tenth, eleventh and twelfth grades, and providing a "model school" on the campus for the observation and practice work required by the state board of university students training to be teachers. Prof. M. M. Thompson, principal of the university high school, is to have the co-operation in this new work of an advisory and supervisory committee of experts from the university faculty, including Dr. L. B. Rogers, dean of the School of Education; Dr. Frank C. Touton, professor of education and educational secretary to President von KleinSmid; Dr. Raymond Drewry, who comes from Lincoln high school, New York City, especially for this work, and Dr. C. C. Crawford, coming to U. S. C. this fall from the University of Idaho. Included in the new permanent teaching staff will be Dr. J. A. Bond, from Albuquerque, N. M., teacher of science and mathematics; Miss Florence Chambers, instructor in physical education; Dr. Willard S. Ford, from Teachers' College, Columbia university; Mrs. Mabel D. Mattison, seventh grade home-room teacher; W. Fred Newcomb, and Miss Winifred South, teacher of music. Forty superior university scholars of the School of Education of U. S. C. will aid the permanent teaching staff as "practice teachers," using the most recent educational theories and methods, under the supervision of the advisory group and the staff of selected experts, according to announcement from the university. The Anaheim American Legion band will furnish music at the opening day of the county fair. This day is given over to the American Legion. M. Clemenceau tells us that France is not for sale. And it must not be forgotten that had it not been for America there probably wouldn't be anything to sell anyhow, Mr. Zellerbach, in commenting upon this matter, said: "Quite naturally, the provisions of the Federal Migratory Bird act, governing the duck season, supersede the state law, hence the ruling that the opening date be set as October 16. However, we are not willing that California sportsmen should be deprived of their pleasure, and will use every effort within our power to see that the season is extended 'at the other end' to make it just as long as it was prior to the promulgation of the order of the secretary of agriculture. We are constantly working to provide more and better sport for the sportsmen of the state, and hope to be able to continue the present seasons and bag limits—providing always that conditions as regards prevalence of fish and game appear to warrant same." Swimming Tourney At Newport Beach Liberal Prizes Will Be Awarded Winners Of All Classes The annual swimming tourney of the Amateur Athletic Union will be held this year, September 11-12, on Newport bay, following a conference between Harold Cleveland, representative for Long Beach and Orange county of the A. A. U., and the board of trustees of the city of Newport Beach and the Orange County Harbor Chamber of Commerce. According to Mr. Cleveland, the meeting will stage ten or more important events and some of the best swimmers on the Pacific coast will be in attendance while the affir will attract thousands of people. The events will include contests for both and women and of those are: Breast stroke—50 yards, 100 yards, 220 yards and 440 yards. Back stroke—50 yards, 100 yards. ANAHEIM GAZETTE 220 yards and 440 yards. Half mile race, relay race and diving stunts in addition to other features on the program. Reports indicate that the swimming meet will be one of the most novel of its kind ever held here. Such a tournament was held here several years ago and was the means of attracting a great number of people. The waters of Newport bay are ideally adapted for the purpose, while it is said one or two races will be held in the ocean. The city trustees appropriated $500 toward the affair, while the Balboa Chamber of Commerce will seek to raise the balance of the fund required. The complete program will be printed later. It is understood that a number of entries will come from San Francisco, where swimmers will next month participate in a big indoor festival. An Illinois weather expert is predicting an early and cool fall. We trust this isn't the same fellow who predicted the summerless summer.

Duffy, general passenger agent of the Santa Fe, the coming fall and winter is going to see all records for tourist and home-seeker travel to California smashed. The passenger official bases his estimate upon the unusually prosperous conditions throughout the great agricultural belt in 12 states, traversed by the Santa Fe, including Kansas, where a 145,000,000 bushel wheat harvest is being completed, while Texas, Oklahoma and other producing states have big crops, and the people are planning to visit this state when the harvest is ended. "Conditions are the best in years," said Mr. Duffy, "and in addition to the prosperity in the middle and central western states, we have excellent crops and everything in California this year that could contribute to the pleasure and profit of those who come here to visit or to live.
