Some 200 persons witnessed the play, which was produced under the direction of the club president, Mrs. Winifred Fisher. Music by a comedy orchestra contributed to the fun of the evening. Those taking part in the play and the roles they carried were Miss Adelalde Osborn, Louella Matilda Primrose; Mrs. Winifred Fisher, Phillip Andrew James; Ruth Upp, Tommy Doolittle; Miss Ada Gandy, Dora Doolittle; Nancy Wiseman, Maude Hopworth; Lola Jones, Faith Snowmore; Mrs. Elsie Rymer, Marie Ellen Hopewell; Dorothy Osborn, Sally Brown; Lucile Sprouse, Julia Jones; Miss Madge Sanders, Mary Elizabeth Smith; Myrtle Baum, Viola Longfellow; Mrs. Ade- NEW GAS TO COST NOTHING PAYMENTS TO ONLY OUT OF SAVED BY Valuable Equipment stalled and Deliver Under Unique Years' Time Profits to Be Annual Payments Cancelled at E PROVISIONS of entered into be council and the Some Feature Exhibits to Cost $5000, Is Report; Santa Ana, Pasadena, Sacramento, Pomona, Fullerton, Anaheim High School and 19 Packing Houses Have Contracted for Space in Main Exhibit Tent With feature exhibit spaces aggregating 2789 square feet, San Diego, Long Beach and Los Angeles lead all other feature exhibitors at the eighth annual California Valencia Orange Show at Anaheim, May 24 to June 3. San Diego, with 33 feet square of space, heads the list with a total of 1069 square feet. Long Beach is second with a space 30x30 feet for a total of 900 square feet, and Los Angeles is third with a space 20x40 feet for a total of 800 square feet. Large spaces in the feature exhibit tent also have been reserved by Sacramento, Pasadena, Pomona, Fullerton, Anaheim high school, Santa Ana, and 19 packing houses belonging to the California Fruit Growers' Exchange. All the foregoing exhibitors at this year's Valencia show have made arrangements for larger space than they have occupied at any previous Valencia show. Some idea of the elaborateness of the feature exhibits may be gleaned from the announcement by George W. Reld, manager of the 1928 California Valencia Orange Show, that two, and possibly more, of these exhibits will cost approximately $5000 each. The cost of the other feature exhibits is expected to range from $1000 to $4000. Approximately 10,000 square feet of tented floor space will be required to house the show. The tent which will house the feature and industrial exhibits is 450 feet long and 130 feet wide, while the automobile tent adjoinng measures 210x130 feet. A third tent will house miscellaneous exhibits. Erection of the two main tents has been completed and work of installing the booths is under way. With the tents up and exhibitors already directing construction of booths and feature exhibits, a scene of intense activity is presented at the grounds on the outskirts of Anaheim. Two huge tents and a third smaller one will be required to house this year's Valencia show. They will cover a total of 100-1000 square feet of ground space, the largest of any previous Valencia show, now in its eighth year. Contract for decorating the principal streets of Anaheim has just been let to R. R. Holbrook, of Los Angeles, and Alen Studio, decorators, of Los Angeles, has the contract for interior decorations. Thus the city, as well as the show tents, will present a gala appearance during the period of the 1928 Valencia show, when a quarter of a million visitors are expected in Anaheim. Music by a comedy orchestra contributed to the fun of the evening. Those taking part in the play and the roles they carried were Miss Adelaide Osborn, Louella Matilda Primrose; Mrs. Winifred Fisher, Phillip Andrew James; Ruth Upp, Tommy Doolittle; Miss Ada Gandy, Dora Doolittle; Nancy Wiseman, Maude Hopeworth; Lola Jones, Faith Snowmore; Mrs. Elsie Rymer, Marie Ellen Hopewell; Dorothy Osborn, Sally Brown; Lucille Sprouse, Julia Jones; Miss Madge Sanders, Mary Elizabeth Smith; Myrtle Baum, Viola Longfellow; Mrs. Adelaide Goodson, Lucy Bosbud; Helen Harden, Martha Weinhauber, and Mrs. Babe Hart.

Cooper Anaheim Boys Assess Fines During Week SEVERAL of Anaheim’s prominent citizens faced the possibility of a night behind the bars Saturday when they were hailed before youthful Vernon Rockwell, Anaheim Boys’ Week city Judge, on charges ranging from reckless driving to moral turpitude. Lotus H. Loudon was the first victim of the police “net work.” Loudon was hailed before the judge on a reckless driving charge and, though Attorney Thomas L. McFadden appeared in his defense, the charge was sustained, the prisoner being fined $1. McFadden paid 50 cents for the privilege of smoking in the court room. A. W. Franzen, “retiring” trustee, was found guilty of parking his auto in the official zone at the city hall. Franzen contended that he was a regularly elected city official, but Judge Rockwell informed him that he was not functioning this week and assessed him $3, $2 of which he later suspended.

VALUABLE EQUIPMENT TO BE INSTALLED AND DELIVERED TO CITY UNDER UNIQUE AGREEMENT; 10 YEARS’ TIME ALLOWED, ONLY PROFITS TO BE DRAWN ON FOR ANNUAL PAYMENTS; BALANCE CANCELLED AT END OF PERIOD PROVISIONS of the contract entered into between the city council and the C. & G. Cooper Company for the purchase of gas engine driven electric generator equipment for installation at the municipal power house show that the action of the board was an economical movement, and the city will benefit financially by the transaction. The price agreed upon was $27,500, this to be paid in annual installments extended over a period of ten years if necessary. When the contract was presented for action by the council, there was a spirited argument between the agent for the Cooper company and a representative of the Edison company, who attempted to show that the council would make a mistake in installing a gas driven engine, but the Cooper agent pointed out that under the contract the city would be obligated to pay only the annual savings accruing by use of the gas engine. From this saving is deducted the cost of labor in running the engine, gas, oils, maintenance, repairs, etc., the balance to be paid annually to the Cooper company. It is further stipulated in the contract, he said, that at the expiration of ten years, if the savings have not been sufficient to liquidate the entire debt of $27,500, the company will cancel the contract and give the city a bill of sale on the engine. This means that the apparatus will cost the people of Anaheim nothing. After the decision had been made, the Edison representative, who had made an eloquent plea for his company, congratulated the board on getting the engine for nothing. Following are some of the principal provisions of the contract: The city agrees that it will accept and operate said equipment for the purpose of generating electric energy to be delivered to its distribution system for a period of not less than ten years from the date of installation of said equipment, provided however, that the city shall not be required to operate said equipment at a loss. It is hereby agreed by and between the parties hereto that the city shall pay for said equipment in annual amounts equivalent to the saving in cost of energy at city’s switchboard, effected by city through the operating of said gas engine driven generating equipment, as compared with the cost to the city of the same energy if purchased from the Southern California Edison Company, or its successors, at the prevailing rates for such service. The saving so effected will be calculated annually by the city, based on its actual operations for the preceding year. BY-PRODUCTS PLANT To Start Work Soon BUILDING BEING REMODELED AND MACHINERY Installed Work of remodeling the former Sperry Flour Company warehouse on South Atchison street as a citrus by-product plant is now being carried out by the newly formed Mutual Citrus Products Company. H. T. Leo, president of the new concern; C. C. Taylor, secretary; and Fred Beck, superintendent, are directing the remodeling work and preparing plans for installing approximately $50,000 worth of machinery. Meanwhile contracts are being signed with lemon growers of the district for a supply of this fruit from which pectin, a much used citrus by-product, will be made as the first manufacturing venture of the new firm. Actual manufacturing operations are not expected to commence for three or four months, as it will require at least that length of time to install all the necessary machinery, it was stated. The warehouse building, in which the new plant is to be established, was recently purchased by the company and is up-to-date construction. According to preliminary plans announced by the company, 12 men are expected to be employed when the manufacturing operations are begun with more to be added to the payroll us the business develops. ROTARIANS ENDorse Women's Clubs and Individuals Throughout the County Invited to Compete in Delicacies Made From Citrus Products; Cash Prizes to Be Paid Winners, and Hundreds Are Expected to Compete for Ribbons ALWAYS on the lookout for something new to be added to the attractions of the California Valencia Orange Show, the management has this year invited the women of Orange county to enter displays of by-products made from citrus fruit. In a contest, the winners of which will be given valuable cash prizes. All women's organizations have been invited to enter in the competition, according to Mrs. H. H. Benjamin, chairman of the women's department, and individuals may make exhibits and compete for the prizes whether they belong to one of the clubs or not. The club women all look with favor upon the plan, and the result will be that hundreds of specimens of their art will be on exhibition. Visitors from outside the citrus belt, who will visit the show in thousands will be able to form some idea of many delicious condiments that can be made from citrus fruit. The substantial cash prizes offered are worth contending for, in addition to the satisfaction experienced by any housewife or member of a club who finds a blue ribbon attached to her exhibit. Any woman's organization or any individual woman is eligible to make entry, the only requirement being that the products be made from citrus fruit. It is expected that there will be entries of jellies, jams and marinalades, lemon pies, candied oranges or grapefruit peel perfume, waxed orange blossoms, lemon orange or grapefruit pastries and many other articles. The prizes will be awarded in groups. There will be a $25 cash first prize for the best group display, and a $15 second prize in this division; a $20 cash prize for the best entry by an individual woman; $25 for the best high school by-product exhibit; $25 for the best display entered by a business firm. The women's organization placing third will be presented with a beautiful certificate. Anyone desiring information regarding the contest may call Mrs. Benjamin or Secretary George W. Reeld of the Chamber of Commerce, Anaheim. Mrs. Benjamin stated that she will not only be glad to furnish information, but may arrange to call upon some of the persons who are desirous of placing displays in the show. Jury Panel Chosen For Judge Allen The following jury panel was chosen Monday in Superior Judge James L. Allen's court: It is hereby agreed by and between the parties hereto that the city shall pay for said equipment in annual amounts equivalent to the saving in cost of energy at city's switchboard, effected by city through the operating of said gas engine driven generating equipment, as compared with the cost to the city of the same energy if purchased from the Southern California Edison Company, or its successors, at the prevailing rates for such service. The saving so effected will be calculated annually by the city, based on its actual operations for the preceding year, except as otherwise provided in the next paragraph, which calculation will be checked by representatives of the company, and the amount of annual payments based thereon. It is understood and agreed by and between the parties hereto that the savings in cost of energy shall be the net savings to the city, after deducting the cost of operating the said gas engine driven electric generator equipment, including the cost of operating said engine, the oil and gas used in the operation thereof, the repairs, maintenance of the said equipment and cost of any labor that shall be necessary for the city to employ. In addition to the labor that is now employed for such service by the city. If the city, during the term of this agreement, shall fall to operate said generating equipment so as to produce the maximum possible K.W.H. output, as hereinbefore provided, the annual payments by the city to the company shall be due and payable, and the basis of calculating said saving shall be what the savings to said city would have been if said equipment had been operated in accordance with the terms hereinabove set forth. The aggregate of said annual payments during the term of this contract shall not exceed the amount of $27,500. It is understood and agreed that the legal title to said equipment shall remain in the company until the aggregate sum of $27,500 has been paid, as hereinabove provided, to the company. However, the company will deliver to the city a bill of sale for said equipment when the aggregate of said annual payments shall equal the sum of $27,500, or, in any event, at the end of the ten-year term of this agreement, regardless of the total amount of said payments which have been made prior to that date, provided, however, that the city shall not pay, in any event, to the company, for said equipment, any amount in excess of the said sum of $27,500. Rotarians Endorse Support of Band Also Recommend Loud Speaker for Greek Theatre The Rotarians at Monday's luncheon were entertained with a musical program participated in by Olliemae Matthews and Kate E. McCullah, of the Orange County School of Fine Arts; Byron Deshler, of Yorba Linda, and the Fullerton high school girls' Glee Club. William L. Currie, secretary of the Merchants' Credit Association, made a short address on credit associations, telling of the valuable work they were doing. The question of the value of a good band to a city came up for discussion, but it developed that there was a unanimity of opinion among the members. A resolution was adopted endorsing hearty support of the American Legion band. A good band, it was asserted, was a distinct asset to a city and deserved the hearty support of the citizens. The establishment of a loud speaker at the Greek theatre, in the city park, was also discussed and approved by the Rotarians. With such an apparatus, it was declared, radio programs could be brought to the theatre. The following jury panel was chosen Monday in Superior Judge James L. Allen's court: C. L. Pearson, E. B. Eaton, Mrs. Charles M. Wardman, Mrs. Clarissa Jackson, Stella M. Farrar, Roy H. Summers, Fred C. Watts, Miss Laura Parter, O. E. Mitchell, Arthur N. Smith, John Lebard, Mrs. Burton Ellis, A. H.

Newell of Olinda, and Newell had started a $35,000 damage suit against Curtis as a result. W. M. Bradford, also of Placentia, is made a party to the case. The accident is alleged to have occurred on the Placentia road near Chapman avenue Curtis and Bradford were testing the car after it had been in a garage and the hood was not clamped down when it suddenly took the air and landed athwart the Newell car according to the complaint. Mrs. Helen F. Newell suffered a crushed left hand and fingers, and received a six-inch gash in her head during the mixup, the complaint stated...

One of the objects of the law was to halt juvenile marriages, through the agency of publicity. Thursday, the law functioned. Mrs. Arthur J. Wootten, of Fullerton, entered the marriage license bureau at Santa Ana, accompanied by her daughter, Correene. Mother and daughter both wore stormy expressions. "I saw a notice of intention to marry published in the newspapers, for my daughter and Mr. Frank Wheeler," Mrs. Wooteen informed the license clerk. A check of the records showed that such was the fact. The notice had been filed by the couple April 20. Wheeler gave his age as 21; the girl said she was 18. KIWANIANS HEAR OF INJUSTICE TO INDIANS MISSIONARY OF BANNING RESERVATION RELATES HISTORY OF RED MAN Club Votes to Support High School in Enlarging Its Exhibit at Orange Show; Other Civic Bodies Will Co-operate; Asks City Council to Appropriate Money for Support of Our American Legion Band THE condition of Lo, the poor Indian, and the injustice that he has suffered from the white Well-Known Citizen Answers Last Call H. Z. Beebe Passes Away at His Home Friday After an illness of several months, H. Z. Beebe died at his home, 128 Stueckle street, last Friday afternoon. Deceased was born in Palmyra, Jefferson county, Wis., March 27, 1848. On November 10, 1872, he was married to Miss Mary Dunham, in Ripon, Wis. Later they moved to Dodge county, Minn., where they lived for a number of years, and about eighteen years ago moved to this city. He was of a quiet, unassuming disposition and was held in high esteem by his neighbors and friends. In 1922, Mr. and Mrs. Beebe celebrated their golden wedding anniversary at the residence of their son, M. E. Beebe. This was quite a memorable event, as a number of the guests were old friends who were present at the wedding in Wisconsin fifty years previous. Two years ago he suffered an acute attack of influenza, from which he never fully recovered. Several months ago he began to fall, and it soon became apparent to those near him that his life was drawing to a close. He is survived by his widow and one son, Marshall E. Beebe, of this city, also two sisters, one living near Seattle, Wash., and the other living in Kansas. Mrs. E. A. Dunham, of East Adele street, this city, is a sister-in-law. Funeral services were held on Monday afternoon from McAulay & Suters' funeral parlor, Fullerton, with Rev. Thomas Holmes Walker, pastor of Anaheim Presbyterian church, officiating. Interment was made in the family plot at Loma Vista cemetery. McFadden Family In Beach Picnic The descendants of William McFadden, one of the earliest settlers of Plainfield County, are included in the community. Club Votes to Support High School in Enlarging Its Exhibit at Orange Show; Other Civic Bodies Will Co-operate; Asks City Council to Appropriate Money for Support of Our American Legion Band THE condition of Lo, the poor Indian, and the injustice that he has suffered from the white conquerors since they crowded him off his lands and possessed his inheritance, was the subject of the speaker at the Kiwanis luncheon Tuesday noon. W. H. Weinland, a missionary from the Banning reservation, was the speaker, and it is evident from his talk that his sympathies are all with the red man with whom he is laboring, and who, he declares, has been unjustly treated, not by the government, but by individuals. "At present the government is doing all in its power to aid the Indian," said the speaker. "But the government is handicapped somewhat by certain men who are stirring up the Indian against his best friend, the department of Indian affairs." "Among these men who are causing trouble are John Collier of Santa Fe N.M., and Jonathan Tibbits of Riverside. These men are creating 'reds' among the Indians and making difficult for those who are trying to help these wards of the government." According to Mr. Weinland, the Indian population is rapidly shrinking. Not more than 20,000 are left in this western section, out of a population of 200,000 when the whites first invaded their hunting grounds. W. T. Walop was chairman for the day and presented the speaker. A proposal that the city council be asked to appropriate a sum of money for support of the American Legion band met with hearty approval. This action has been taken by other civic bodies, and will no doubt be favorably acted upon by the council. The withdrawal of San Bernardino from participation in the orange show after space had been allotted to it, has left a gap in the feature tent, and the question of filling this gap was discussed. It was agreed that the best plan would be to assist the Anaheim high school in enlarging its exhibit and thus occupy the space made vacant by San Bernardino's withdrawal. Representatives of the Lions and Rotarians were present and pledged support, and other organizations are expected to do likewise. All of them will contribute to a fund to enable the high school to fill the gap. Special music for the program was given by the Fullerton Junior College Boys' Glee Club, and by Mrs. Cecil Willets of Santa Ana, the latter a vocalist who has been in the employ of the publicity department of the Santa Fe Railroad Company. McFadden Family In Beach Picnic The descendants of William McFadden, one of the earliest settlers of Placentia, and originator of the Pioneer ranch, held a reunion at Huntington Beach Sunday. Since the death of William McFadden, Ralph McFadden has been on the old ranch. The gathering was in honor of Mrs. O. F. Guerin, of Minnesota, who with her two children, is visiting her mother, Mrs. Mable Miller of Los Angeles. With heavily laden picnic baskets, the group gathered and spent the day on the beach. Those there were Mrs. Carrie Ford and her three sons, Alvin, Maurice, and Dr. Hubert Ford, with their families; Mr. and Mrs. Ralph McFadden and daughter, Wilma; Mr. and Mrs. T. L. McFadden; Mrs. Elizabeth McFadden and her sons, James and William; Mr. and Mrs. Rob McFadden and sons, of Inglewood; Mrs. Minnie Merrill, of San Fernando; Mrs. Greely, of Santa Ana; Mrs. Mable Miller, of Los Angeles, and Mrs. O. F. Guerin and children. County Farm Bureau Directors' Meeting The Orange County Farm Bureau will take a definite stand in regard to the financing of the Century and Manchester boulevards, according to a resolution which was introduced at the last meeting on May 3. This resolution was referred to the legislative committee for investigation, and the matter will be thoroughly discussed at the next meeting. Most of the day was spent in receiving reports from the various committees, all of which showed that the farm bureau is in a very active condition. Special music for the program was given by the Fullerton Junior College Boys' Glee Club, and by Mrs. Cecil Willlets of Santa Ana, the latter a vocalist who has been in the employ of the publicity department of the Santa Fe Railroad Company. High Valencia Prices Offset Smaller Crop Despite prospects of a Valencia orange crop considerably smaller than last year's record yield in Orange county, growers this year may realize nearly as much for the 1928 crop because of the higher prices obtaining this year. It is agreed by prominent growers and packers. The official estimates place the 1928 yield at 65 per cent or less of last year's output. Orange county's 1927 Valencia crop brought a return of $24,924,281. With the Anaheim house of the Olive Fruit Company now shipping an average of three cars a day of Valencias and shipments going forward from the Anaheim Citrus Fruit Association and other Orange county packers planning an early renewal of operations, the Valencia season soon will be under way in full swing throughout Orange county. The 1928 Valencia yield of Orange county promises at this time to be 4500 cars or less, compared with last year's record yield of 6,278,112 boxes. Present market prices, however, have enabled the Olive Fruit Company to pay the growers an average of four to five cents a pound on the tree, it was stated by W. W. Miller, manager. Sizes this year run generally larger than last year, Mr. Miller said. Carl Elliott has returned from Lindsey, where he was engaged in shipping oranges from Tulare county during the past season. He is at his home in this city, and will soon begin shipping oranges from Fullerton.
