Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Zitzmann and their daughter, Miss Wilhelmina have returned from Los Angeles and have again taken up their residence in this city. Mr. Zitzmann has been quite seriously ill and has temporarily retired from the banking business. He is recovering his health and will probably soon return to his bank again.

The suit filed by Mrs. Frederick Sherman of Los Angeles against J. Frank Burke, owner of the Santa Ana Register, asking judgment for $2500, has been withdrawn, and Burke's bank account, which had been attached, released. Mrs. Sherman claimed that Burke owed her husband, now dead, $2500 as commission for having engineered the sale of the Register by J. P. Baumgartner to Burke some time ago.

Father James O'Neill, chaplain of St. Catherine's school, has a complaint against the city or the owners of business houses because many of the awnings stretching across the sidewalk are two low to permit a man of his stature to pass under without removing his hat or stooping down. City attorney George Holden has delved into the statutes to determine the law governing such matters and finds that awnings must be at least eight feet above the ground. An awning with a clear space of eight feet between it and the sidewalk would give Father O'Neill ample room to walk erect under it.
A Kansas City woman shot her husband because he bid four spades, was doubled, redoubled and then couldn't make it. Well, it may be that there were some extinguishing circumstances.
"FOUR-FOUR'S MEET"
Miss Winifred Melrose entertained the Four-Four's on Thursday evening. After enjoying a delicious 6 o'clock dinner at a down town cafe the guests were taken to the Melrose home where the evening was spent in playing the usual game of whist. Prizes were won by Mrs. A. B. McCord and Wm. Dolan.
THE HORSE
WOULDNT MOVE
A horse, and his ability or inability to perform as horses should, was the center of a stirring legal battle in Anderson.
W. A. Eastman told in court how he purchased a morse from T. Lovejoy, on the guarantee that the horse not only knew his stuff, but could do it. A check for $100 changed hands in the transaction.
When Eastman got home he hitched the horse to a derrick, but asserted the horse thought it was a stable. He wouldn't move an inch.
So payment was stopped on the check by Eastman and Lovejoy brought the suit. The judge took the case under consideration.

S. C. University Wants a Song
Revealing the traditions, history, and ideals of the University of Southern California through poetry and music, a University Ode is to be selected by a competition open to students, alumni, and friends of the Trojan institution. The lyric will be chanted by a student cherus during the Semi-Centennial program in June, 1930, when S. C. is to celebrate its fifteenth anniversary by a one-week festival. The contest for the ode-poem closes on Friday, November 15th; the contest for the musical score will close on February 1st, 1930.
Dr. Allison Gaw, in charge of the collegiate poetic competition, states that manuscripts submitted must have intrinsic literary worth, must deal with the aims and achievements of the University of Southern California, must be adaptable to massed choral singing, must be signed by a nom de plume (accompanied by a sealed envelope bearing also the correct name of the author), and must be in his hands at 6 p.m. on Friday, November 15th.
Judges include Dr. Gaw, of the Department of English, chairman; Charles E. Pemberton, professor of musical composition; and Horatio Cogswell, professor of singing in the S. C. College of Music.
Besides the honor of excelling in the competition, the authors of both the winning poem and the musical setting will receive prizes of fifty dollars each.
Public presentation of the ode will be during the one-week Semi-Centennial Celebration in June, 1930, when the Trojan Golden Anniversary is commemorated by a series of significant events, including also a spectacular historical parquet.

Seeking Markets In South America
Tade Scouts Looking Over Field For State's Advancement
To discover if there is a market in South America for California products, two "trade scouts" representing California recently took a 3-months' tour of the South American countries. What they found will be told in a series of articles by the scouts themselves, Assemblyman Van Bernard of Butte City, and Dudley Moulton, San Francisco agricultural commissioner.
There will be no overproduction bugboos and warnings to "pull up your trees and vines" when California actually begins to trade with her neighbor, South America.
There is the biggest, richest, undeveloped market for California fruits and vegetables to be found in the world. And it offers the real solution to the problem of California agriculture—that of faulty distribution.
We have just returned from a trip to the East Coast of outh America where wetalked with men—6,000 miles from here, mind you—who were thinking of the same problems we had in mind: How to find markets for various types of commodities.
During this trip was born the idea of a Pan-American Reciprocal Trade Conference, which will be held in Sacramento during the state fair in September, 1930, under auspices of the Sacramento Regional Citizens Council.
To the conference South American countries will send representatives, who will sit around a table and "swap" ideas with California producers. Questions of tariff, market reports, shipping, credits, etc., will be discussed. The conference has full approval of the United States government.
We spent some time roaming around the markets of Buenos Aires and other cities. In Buenos Aires I paid one peso, about 40 cents for a California grapefruit, and the same price for a large pear grown in Argentina.
Argentina offers a fine market for California grapes and fresh fruits. But their strict regulations governing the laqueering of tins and sulphur dioxide content are notorious.

Candidates Out
For State Office
Several More to Announce for Governor Within the Next Few Days
With two declarations of candidacy made officially at Sacramento this week, the 1930 gubernatorial campaign is now under way.
Those who "broke the ice" were State Controller Ray L. Riley, who will be a candidate for Republican nomination for governor, and George G. Radcliff, former chairman of the State Board of Control, who will seek Riley's job as state controller.
Riley's announcement came as a surprise, as it appeared in the newspapers simultaneously with a statement by Former Governor Friend W. Richardson. Richardson said that six potential candidates for governor had agreed to meet next week and select one of their number to oppose the present governor, C. C. Young.
What happened is problematical. Riley, who confirmed the report published in the San Bernardino Sun while he was on a fishing trip in Siskiyou county, expressed surprise that the news had leaked out. Whether his good friend, Robert C. Harblison, publisher of The Sun—who has been urging Riley all along to be a candidate—beat the guns" by publishing the news prematurely is a question political observers are trying to figure out.
At any rate, Riley is a candidate, although it is whispered that Former Governor Richardson and District Attorney Buron R. Fitts are none too happy about it. Riley's campaign slogan will be "Better Tax Laws for California." A close student of tax problems, he has long advocated a change in the present system of taxing public utilities on their gross receipts.
As a substitute, Riley has an idea that some form of income tax should be used for utilities, while their real property should be returned to counties for local taxation purposes.
George Radcliff, genial co-publisher of the Watsonville Pajaronian, originated the idea of a state purchasing office while he was serving as superintendent of capitol buildings and grounds from 1911 to 1919. The office of state purchasing agent was officially created in 1914. "Rad" got his first appointment from Hiram Johnson, then governor, although he had previously served in the state assembly for three years from Santa Cruz county. During the Richardson regime he was chairman of the State Board of Control.
Now that the first announcements have appeared, other candidates are expected to develop in the near future.

Multiplying Your Telephone's Convenience
WE ARE NOW in the midst of a cable-placing program for the Pacific Coast which, by 1933, will link cities from Canadian line to Mexican. This new lead-sheathed, storm-proof cable will multiply our city-to-city facilities in some cases twenty times over, besides improving clearness and sureness of out-of-town service to a marked degree.
Practically trouble-proof, and taking the place of hundreds of open wires, this new cable will make neighbors of all.
This cable-building program will cost about $30,-000,000. It will increase the convenience of every telephone we serve.
