Robinson Crusoe and His Island Furnish Setting for the Most Beautiful of All the Exhibitions; High Class Talent to Furnish Entertainment For the Thousands of Visitors. At noon today the gate of the Ninth Annual California Valencia Orange Show will be thrown open to admit the public, to the wonderful sights to be seen in the great canvas. Tonight the formal opening evercloses will be held, Dr. Rufus von KleinSmid, president of the University of Southern California, making the principal address. The coming display will have the official designation of Ninth Annual California Valencia Orange Show. As a show fixture it has attained national importance, carrying the fame of Orange county's groves a little farther around the globe. So well has the purpose of the show been realized that the opening of the market this year saw a demand for 72,000 boxes of fruit for the European trade, and the order was filled in a single cargo. Another evidence of the value of the show is seen in a recent statement by C. C. Chapman of Fullerton, "Father of the Valencia," the first grower to ship this summer fruit. A score of years ago Mr. Chapman recalls, $5 was considered a wonderful price for a box o'Valencias. Now $16 a box is not unheard of. While the exhibition is designed to show the Valencia orange to its best advantage, it also takes on a carnival spirit as evidenced in daily programs of amusement amid scenes of artistic splendor. This year the show will be conducted in a tent especially constructed for the event. The canvas has been treated with a fire resisting substance to prevent possibility of trouble from any unexpected blaze. Within, the tent has been divided into three sections. In the section nearest the handsome permanent entrance that is landmark on the highway, will be located the rack displays of fruit, the ewelve feature exhibits and the entertainment stage. The second section will contain the industrial exhibits, while in the third will be housed the large automobile show. Selecting for the decorative motif of the show this year Daniel DeFoe's story of Robinson Crusoe, George W. Reid, manager, has superintended the creation of a spectacle that is bound to fascinate all visitors. The decorations have a South Sea aspect that quite belies the canvas walls around. Each feature exhibit depicts some event in the story o'the lonely Crusoe. The program announcer's platform has been made to resemble the poop deck of the sailor's wrecked ship. Live parrots will add to the effect, and Crusoe himself might feel at home. There will be 40,000 square feet of rack space for oranges and this will require 80 standard boxes to fill it. The feature exhibits will require 480 boxes of oranges to make them beautiful. Oranges for display are coming from all Orange City day, vaudeville, packing contest. Tuesday, May 28—Movie Nite, Pomona day, vaudeville, packing content. Wednesday, May 29—Long Beach day, packing contest, vaudeville. Thursday, May 30—American Legion day, San Bernardino night, vaudeville, packing contest, semi-finals. Friday, May 31—Plantation Night, Fullerton day, packing contest finals. Saturday, June 1—Pasadena day, vaudeville. Sunday, June 2—San Diego and Ventura day, "Baby Beauty" contest, vaudeville. Announcement is made that each evening's program is to begin promptly at 7 o'clock. The early start is made imperative by the fact that one hour's entertainment will be broadcast over KNX by remote control from the stage of the Orange Show. KNX will likewise broadcast one hour of the matinee entertainment each day. As a result of the radio phase of the entertainment, this year's daily programs will be longer in duration and with greater features than any heretofore, it is pointed out. This year's program embraces outstanding features that Manager Reid is confident will establish a new standard for Pacific Coast expositions. In addition to vaudeville acts, dancing revues and radio specialties, the thousands in attendance at the big midsummer event will have something of interest on the huge stage constantly. The orange packing contests, both for speed and fancy designs, are expected to attract wider attention than ever before. A record list is reported to have been received. At last year's events the crowds became wildly enthused, breaking into cheers time after time as the contestants packed their respective boxes of oranges. One of the unique events will be a "Baby Beauty" contest. This will be staged under the auspices of the Disabled Veterans' organization of Orange County. Another entertaining phase is expected to be a bathing beauty contest, in which a bevy of Venice beauties will participate. Movie night will see the appearance of various screen celebrities. Another motion picture event will be "Paramount Night," at which Buddy Rogers, James Hall, Esther Ralston and Mary Brian will be among those present. What is claimed to be the finest array of talent ever presented from the stage at the big Anaheim event, is reported to have assembled for this year's show. The stage, screen and radio will be well represented by the entertainers. According to the announced program, the entertainment is slated to get under way each evening at 7 o'clock, this being primarily due to the broadcasting of the program over KNX by remote control. The most costly exhibits ever constructed at the Valencia show will be seen this year.

The decorations have a South Sea aspect that quite belies the canvas walls around. Each feature exhibit depicts some event in the story of the lonely Crusoe. The program announcer's platform has been made to resemble the poop deck of the sailor's wrecked ship. Live parrots will add to the effect, and Crusoe himself might feel at home. There will be 40,000 square feet of rack space for oranges and this will require 80 standard boxes to fill it. The feature exhibits will require 480 boxes of oranges to make them beautiful. Oranges for display are coming from all parts of California where Valencias are grown, some especially fine ones from Porterville. The grand sweepstakes prize offered for the best forty boxes of Valencias is $100, while the grand sweepstakes for a similar number of boxes of lemons is $75. Sweepstakes prize for seedless grapefruit is $50. Other awards bring up the total money prizes offered to well over $2500. The best feature exhibit with mechanical action will draw down a prize of $300, and $250 is offered for he bes feature display without mechanical action. Citrus fruits will not make all the attraction in the main division, for an avocado department has been arranged to include the leading seasonable varieties. The by-products division has attracted much attention from prospective exhibitors, and both merchants and housewives will be interested in the extensive displays made in that division. Probably the most exciting event billed for the show from the celtus grower's standpoint will be the packing contest, the winner of which will be declared declared the champion orange packer of the world. The big packing house have entered their speediest and lightest fingered experts and the contest will be worth seeing when they get down to business. Of course the Valencia show had to have a queen and in the contest held to select one, two young ladies tied for highest honors. Therefore, the show will have two sovereigns, Misses Mona Riro and Dorothy Day, ruling amicably together. Details of the program for the show were made known by George W. Reid. The stage, screen and radio will be well represented by the entertainers. According to the announced program, the entertainment is slated to get under way each evening at 7 o'clock, this being primarily due to the broadcasting of the program over KNX by remote control. The most costly exhibits ever constructed at the Valencia show will be seen this year. San Diego county requires nearly 500 square feet its exhibit showing the famous Hodge Lake and reservoir from which San Diego gets its water. Robinson Crusoe, this year's show motif, is seen in the foreground hewing his boat out of a log. Crusoe, peering up through the roof of his palm-thatched hut, is seen "discovering" Pasadena's beauties in that city's exhibit. This is accomplished through constantly changing illuminated slides, which visitors at the show will return see through the glass eyes of the waxed Robinson in viewing Pasadena's attractions. Fullerton folks were less impressed with Crusoe's ingenuity in wriggling out of a momentary dilemma than with his sagacity in planning for the days to come. Therefore, his raisin making venture was chosen by that city as the theme for its feature display. The San Bernardino exhibit shows Crusoe counting time on his calendar, using a knife to annotate the days. This is accomplished by a mechanical contrivance. Ventura, with a beautiful mechanical structure of mission architecture, portrays Crusoe reading to Friday. The Anaheim Union high school shows a somewhat different aspect of Crusoe and his man Friday, the latter being taught the proverbial three "rs" as the two sit in front of their hut. Orange city's exhibit presents Robinson peering over a rocky ledge seeking to perceive a rescue ship through binoculars. Pomona presents a complete island, the adventurer's hut being surrounded by running water typical of the sea. In his hut Crusoe is seen reading the only book he saved from the wreckage—the Bible. The state agricultural department at Sacramento is represented by a large exhibit in which virtually everything pertaining to agricultural interests is depicted. The city of Anaheim hibit is stationed at the Robinson standing in the entrance with a basket on his left arm, while tended forward in a offering an orange to The Sunkist organizan an elaborate rock formation by a life-size figure On al four sides are ing the important steel industry from its present.

Anderson and Two Little Daughters Victims of Crash; Mrs. Viola Ramsey, Sister of Mrs. Anderson, With Her Baby, Jumps From the Car and Escapes; All Three Injured Rushed to the Hospital, but Died. The lives of three people were snuffed out Friday evening, when the northbound Santa Fe flyer, passing here shortly after five o'clock, struck an automobile at the North street crossing. The three victims were Mrs. Norbert L. Anderson and her two children, Norberta aged 7, and Marjorie aged 4. Riding in the car was Mrs. Viola Ramsey and her baby, but when the car started on the track Mrs. Ramsey snatched up her baby and sprang out just in time to avoid the crash. The two women are daughters of W. J. Elliott, real estate man and prominent Eastside rancher. It is stated by witnesses that Mrs. Anderson knew of the train's approach and stopped, but as she was only five feet from the track she attempted to back up. Instead of backing the car jumped forward onto the track just as the swiftly-moving train reached the crossing. The machinife was carried several hundred feet along the right of way after it was struck b y the locomotive, then tossed to one side, completely wrecked, with the mother and her two daughters so badly crushed that death resulted. Marjorie, the youngest Anderson girl almost instantly, but the other girl lived until eight o'clock, and the mother survived until five o'clock next morning. The victims were all taken to the Anaheim Sanitarium following the accident. The wreckage of the car was finally thrown into the ditch at the side of the track. Mrs. Anderson was thrown out before it was dumped, and one of her arms was cut off near the shoulder by the locomotive. The two children went over the embankment with the remains of the car, and were picked up by passers-by and rushed to the hospital. A second car followed with Mrs. Anderson, but at that institution it was realized that there was no hope for any of them. The crossing where the fatal crash occurred is protected only by a ya stand-ard highway crossing warning sign according to a Santa Fe railroad employee, who stated that he understood the car became stalled on the tracks in front of the on-rushing train. The crash wiped out almost the entire family, leaving only the husband and father, N. L. Anderson, real estate man, who is associated in business with W. J. Elliott, the father of Mrs. Anderson and Mrs. Ramsey. The Anderson home is at 604 North Lemon street, and the Ramseys live at 753 Sabina street. An inquest was held over the bodies at Banks, Terry & Campbell's under Men's Open Forum club has programmed for its May meeting an evening of exceptional interest. Dr. Walter C.

The educational interests of Orange county, as represented by the Orange County Schoolmasters' Club, is on record as solidly behind the $16,500,000 flood control bonds, following a meeting Saturday night in Orange, where the club unanimously adopted a resolution indorsing the flood control project. Retiring President J. L. VanderVeer, head of the manual training department of Anaheim Union high school, urged indorsement of the bonds in a vigorous appeal to the club, in which he recalled that during his residence in Anaheim he had four times seen flood waters pouring through the streets of that city. “This is a project that should have been carried through long ago,” said VanderVeer. “It is so vital to the future welfare and growth of the county that we, as progressive citizens of our respective communities and as a forward-looking organization, cannot afford to withhold our support from this great movement.” The seventy-five members of the club who were present enthusiastically adopted the resolution. Discussion of the resolution followed an address by Paul Bailey, engineer for the county flood control district, who explained the project in extensive detail. Stewart White, head athletic coach in Orange Union high school, was elected president of the Schoolmasters' Club at the meeting, to succeed VanderVeer. Indorsement by Riverside and San Bernardino counties of the Orange county flood control program and recognition of it as part of the general development of the Santa Ana river, was made Tuesday as a result of a meeting in Riverside, attended by boards of supervisors of the three counties and members of the tri-counties reforestation and tri-counties water conservation committee. At same time it was revealed that the dam site on the Santa Anna river approved by State Engineer Edward Hyatt Jr., in his report is the name as the one selected by Paul Bailey, flood control engineer for this district, and approved by the board of supervisors. This site is the lower one on the Santa Anna river. As a result of the session it is expected that possible formation of a flood control district in the upper regions will be deferred until after Orange county's $16,500,000 flood control election on June 25. Those who attended the session from Orange county were Willard Smith, chairman of the board of supervisors; John Mitchell from Garden Grove; C. H. Chapman supervisor from Santa Ana; H.

For the first time in the history of the state, every one of California's 58 counties will have displays of their scenic beauties, norticultural wealth, it was stated. Cities, counties, promotion organizations, chambers of commerce and other public bodies are planning elaborate exhibits while a number of the western states have announced their intention of being represented with exhibits. "This western exposition will be a celebration of our 75th anniversary," said Robert A. Condee of Chino, president of the state agricultural society.

Apparently the threatened opposition to the county flood bonds by citizens of the const section is dying in its infancy. The movement for harmony among the people of the county in supporting all improvement projects has had its effect on the disgruntled, and petty spites are being forgotten. Efforts to place the Orange County Association on record as opposed to the flood control and water conservation program, were defeated at San Clemente Tuesday night, when the motion to pledge opposition was changed to referring the matter to the committee on water conservation. Discussion of water problems and transportation consumed most of the time of the association. The move to place tife South Coast communities in opposition to the water project was embodied in a motion offered by Stuart Lucas of Corona del Mar, who spoke briefly in support of his motion. Roy W. Peacock, Laguna Beach opened the way for those favoring the water measure by suggesting that no snap judgment should be taken on anything of such importance, but that it should be referred to a resolutions committee and reported back at the next meeting of the association. W. B. Mandeville, Huntington Beach, spoke strongly against taking a position opposing water conservation and control, though he explained that he did not do so as representing his community, not even he who might vote. The seriousness of the water problem required careful thought before action is taken, he believed. He moved that the motion be tabled. J. P. Greeley, Balboa, concurred in the statement that the problem is a serious one, but thought that all action should be deferred. Chairmarr Tom Talbert pointed out what has happened in districts where water is being pumped all of the time. He told of wells which 17 years ago drew waer from 35-foot wells and now have a lift of 180 feet, or artesian wells of 35 years ago, now being pumped at a depth of 70 feet. He reported during his talk that no one in Orange county could afford to fight water, and asserted that the Irvine company and Long Beach had both made recent arrangements to take water from the Santa Ana river basin, further depleting the supply. In an effort to make more clear the situation in the San Juan Creek district, Ole Hanson of San Clemente asked Paul Bailey, flood engineer, a number of questions. Bailey had been asked to make statements at various times previous to this. Information elicited by Mr. Hanson indicated that the extreme southern portion of the county... school was recorded.

The students have used the Hare system of voting for some time, and in this way they have the opportunity of voting for their second and third choices as well as first. In the case of candidates for the last two offices, one was a tie and in the other no one had a majority, so the candidate with the lowest vote was eliminated and the second choice vote, which had been placed on his ballots were given to the respective candidates to decide the election, thus preventing necessity of voting again. A total of 587 votes were cast at the election. The result of the election for girls' league officials for the ensuing year was as follows: For president, Helen Houck, elected, and Lella Brown; for vice-president, Mary Louise Crone, elected; for secretary, Virginia Knott, and Bethyle Nelson, elected; for treasurer, Ferne Eberhard, elected; Viola Vogt and Ora Shilling. Our idea of the depth of oblivion the last few weeks is that achieved by the family that lives in the other half of the Coolidge duplex at Northampton, Mass. his talk that no one in Orange county could afford to fight water, and asserted that the Irvine company and Long Beach had both made recent arrangements to take water from the Santa Ana river basin, further depleting the supply. In an effort to make more clear the situation in the San Juan Creek district, Ole Hanson of San Clemente asked Paul Bailey, flood engineer, a number of questions. Bailey had asked to make statements at various times previous to this. Information elicited by Mr. Hanson indicated that the extreme southern portion of the county would receive at least dollar for dollar benefit, according to the schedule of appropriations for dam building. Speaking again for his motion, Mr. Lucas said that the election was set for too early a date, and that careful consideration of the matter by the public was scarcely allowed. When the vote was taken to commit the proposition to the committee on water conservation, Carl Kankey wanted to know the personnel of the committee. He was informed that it is headed by D. J. Dodge of Costa Mesa, others being W. B. Mandeville, H. H. Newton, J. S. Malcom and J. S. Thurston. U. C.

Quite an industry has been built up in the sale and export of the juices of oranges and lemons in various forms, and this industry naturally needs and craves protection. It is the only way in which we can beat Spain and Italy to the market.
