MANY BADGES FOR BOY SCOUTS Five Anaheim Boys Honored at Scouts County Meet Last Friday Night Approximately 1000 men and women were present last Friday night to witness what was declared to be the most spectacular presentation of Boy Scouts ever staged in the county. The occasion was the annual jamboree of Boy Scouts, conducted under the auspices of the 40 and 8; fun department of the American Legion. The event was held at the Orange county fair grounds. More than 700 scouts participated in the program, various troops demonstrating features of the scout program. The precision and speed with which the boys erect bridges, built camp fires, erected tents and demonstrated the other features, offered conclusive evidence that the boys are being educated along lines that will develop their independence, resourcefulness and ingenuity for the battles of life they will encounter when they assume their respective places in the scheme of life.

Rip Van Winkle is being exploited as never before, as Washington Irving's great character and his environment just previous to and following the revolutionary war has been chosen as the motif. Each succeeding year the show has been getting bigger and better, until now it is recognized throughout all the states as one of the nation's classics. The first show, ten years ago, was opened by long distance telephone, by President Harding, sitting in his office at the White House. He complimented Anaheim on its enterprise in inaugurating such an entertainment and regretted his inability to be here in person. He was represented, however, by his brother, Dr. George T. Harding of Columbus, Ohio, and his sister, Mrs. E. E. Remsberg, of Santa Ana. Every year since that date the show has been opened by some man of prominence in the state or nation. The show will be opened this year on Thursday, May 22, one week from today by Mayor James Rolph, Jr., of San Francisco, it was announced this week by George W. Reid, manager of the show. In accepting the management's invitation, Mayor Rolph telegraphed, in part: "I am delighted to attend. The citrus industry of California is one of its greatest assets, and I want to help whenever I can. Thanks to the California Valencia Orange Show, and the Valencia orange industry, Anaheim has become one of the most widely advertised cities of the State." Mayor Rolph will fly from San Francisco. Officials of the Western Air Express reported yesterday that the well know candidate for the Republican nomination for governor has already made his reservation. At the Alhambra terminal of Western Air, Mayor Rolph will be welcomed by a committee of show and Anaheim officials. The guest of honor will then be accompanied by a motor caravan to Anaheim, where a reception is planned. In the evening, a dinner will be given him by city, county and state officials. At eight o'clock he will visit the show and open it with a brief address over KGER, the official broadcasting station of the show. He will fly back to San Francisco. Vrade Trete Club The Vrade Trete Bridge club were entertained at the home of Mrs. Sophie Stock on Tuesday evening. The decorations of dainty baskets of spring flowers arranged about the living and dining rooms lent an air of festivity to the scene. A delicious two course lunch was served by the hostess after the game. The first prize for high score was won by Miss Clem Backs, the second by Mrs. Sophie Stock and the consolation by Mrs. Mabelle Hamler. Those More than 700 scouts participated in the program, various troops demonstrating features of the scout program. The precision and speed with which the boys erect bridges, built camp fires, erected tents and demonstrated the other features, offered conclusive evidence that the boys are being educated along lines that will develop their independence, resourcefulness and ingenuity for the battles of life they will encounter when they assume their respective places in the scheme of life. The introductory parade of the troops, led by the American legion bugle and drum corps, the parade of nations, and the ceremonies in presentation of eagle badges and palms, were impressive in the extreme, and brought forcefully to the attention of the assembly the value of scouting. Presentation of badges was made by Col. M. B. Wellington, president of the Orange County council of Boy Scouts. Eagle badges were presented to the following: Howard George, Troop 1, Huntington Beach; Phelps Merckel, Troop 5, Newport Beach; James Sussdorf, Troop 5, Newport Beach; Royal Wellington, Troop 5, Newport Beach; Ambrose Wykoff, Troop 5, Newport Beach; Ernest Miller, Troop 29, Santa Ana; Don Masters, Troop 53, Orange; Earl Hoag, Troop 71, Anaheim; Paul Brandt, Troop 72, Anaheim; Arthur Hebson, Troop 72, Anaheim; Le Verne Roquet, Troop 72, Anaheim; Arthur Saviors, Troop 72, Anaheim; Grant Brown, Troop 91, Fullerton; Lidnel Holdsworth, Troop 95, Fullerton. Bronze palms were given to Russell Shafer, Troop 5, Newport Beach; Duane Lyon, Troop 53, Orange, and Philip Webb, Troop 72, Anaheim. A gold palm was given to William Friend, Troop 5, Newport Beach. Henry Unmack, scout field executive, officiated as announcer. The scout program closed with enactment of "The Bridge Builder" by Santa Ana Troop 24 under the leadership of Scoutmaster Goin Warner, some 50 cubs crossing the bridge as the climax of the presentation. Following the program scores of visitors tarred on the plike to enjoy the fun offered by prominent men and women who conducted concessions with considerable success in adding wealth to the fund the 40 and 8 is gathering for erection of a building at Camp RoKILi in the San Bernardino mountains.

Fearn, manager of the radio shop bearing his name at 113 South Los Angeles street, this week installed two Kelvinator electric refrigerators for demonstration purposes and took over the agency for Anaheim and vicinity, as a result of negotiations completed last Saturday. "My choice of refrigerators," Fearn stated in announcing his agency, "was made not only upon the mechanical perfection of the machine, but also upon the reputation of its makers. Kelvinator has been on the market 16 years just twice as long as its nearest competitor, and refrigerators sold before other makes came on the market have required little or no attention. Service Man Morris who returned from Imperial Valley last week, reported that while in that district he replaced one slightly worn belt on a Kelvinator sold ten years ago. That's the only replacement or attention the machine has needed in a decade, and it has been giving perfect refrigeration satisfaction. "Separation of units as permitted under construction of the Kelvinator meets a varied form of conditions, particularly in especially hot climates where the Kelvinator cooling unit can be placed in the collar and thus more efficient refrigeration can be produced for the box in the kitchen. It is under especially trying climatic conditions where the Kelvinator has its greatest sales. This means that under more normal conditions, the machine also would function more perfectly than any other on the market." Dr. A. E. Abrams of La Jolla, who has been attending the Congregational Conference at Claremont during the past week, has been spending a good portion of his time visiting with his brother and sister-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. E. D. Abrams, who own a store at 116 West Center street; and reside at 121 East Broadway. Dr. Abrams spent all day Thursday here.

The law allows five days for a recount in order to register those who had been missed in the first enumeration consequently the enumerators worked Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday registering those who reported that they were not yet on the list. Just hom many additions were made during the three days was not made public but it is believed it Harry C. Arthur, Jr. General Manager of Eastern Showhouses Harry C. Arthur Jr., eldest son of Harry C. Arthur, resident manager of the Anaheim Fox Theatre, this week took over executive control of more than 700 theatres east of the Mississippi river, all holdings of Fox Theatres Inc. Mr. Arthur, senior, received word May 5 of his son's promotion from the West Coast chain, southern division, of Fox Theatres Inc., to the general managership of all theatres not in this division. At the same time Oscar S. Oldknow, vice president of the National Theatres Supply Co., became executive vice president of Fox Theatres Inc. Promotions were announced by Harley L. Clarke, president of the giant theatre concern. Just to prove that showmanship runs in the family, Milton Arthur, another son of the local theatre manager, on May 25 takes over ownership and management of the Capitol theatre in Long Beach. During renovation of the Long Beach showhouse, Milton Arthur remains in CITY'S FINANCES IN EXCELLENT CONDITION City Council Receives Annual Reports of Various Officials at Meeting Tuesday City Clerk E. B. Merritt's annual report presented to the council Tuesday night shows that the city's finances are in excellent condition, with a cash balance in the treasury of $146,643.88. Of this amount $43,927.57 is in the general fund. This report also shows that building permits to the amount of $512,541.00 were issued during the fiscal year. The bond indebtedness of the city is 711,356.36, and the real estate and other property owned by the city aggregates 11,270,923.50. The total assessed valuation of the city this year is $13,761. When the census man completed his count of Anaheim's people and his figures were made public there was a kick—a loud and vigorous kick, from the many persons who had not been counted. The law allows five days for a recount in order to register those who had been missed in the first enumeration consequently the enumerators worked Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday registering those who reported that they were not yet on the list. Just hom many additions were made during the three days was not made public but it is believed it will boost this city's population to over 11,000. In the preliminary count, Anaheim was credited with 10,817 and Fullerton with 10,820. The communities had five days after the announcement by Goode in which to recheck their cities, and interest centered in the additional names procured in each city. Claude Sidnam, who was in charge of the recount at Anaheim, declared that nearly 200 names had been added at Anaheim, while information gleaned at the office of the secretary of the chamber of commerce at Fullerton indicated an addition of only 25 or 30 names. If these statements, which are unofficial so far as concerns exact gains, are correct, Anaheim will have wrested from Fullerton the honor of being the second largest city in the county. This is the goal that prompted both cities to make full use of the five-day period for rechecking the count ofoses. Sidnam said that fully 200 residents of his community had called his office and declared they had been missed in the original enumeration, and that he was justified in asserting that 'the additions made would stand in the check to be made by the superior. It was stated Tuesday, however, that 182 names had been added, making the total for the city 10,999. Goode said that his office staff was so absorbed in the work of preparing couchers for enumerators that it could not check up the additional names sent in by the two cities. The supervisor also said that it probably would be a week or ten days before final figures for Orange county could be announced.

RAPID ADVANCE IN EDUCATION Orange County Spent $4,038,733 On Her Schools In 1929 Rapid advance in California's famed education system is found by Vierling Kersey, state superintendent of public instruction, according to his annual progress report. "In 1929, Orange county spent $4,038,-733 on its schools," Kersey said in the report, "and it is to the citizens whose taxes made up that amount I am submitting this survey. "It is not to be considered a complete statement of accomplishments, nor is it to be considered as proof of perfection in our schools. This is simply a statement of the wholesome, progressive characteristics of state advancement in California education." Surprisingly rapid development of kindergarten education in California is noted by Kersey in the report. Approximately 50 per cent of all children of kindergarten age are actually enrolled in the more than 1,000 kindergarten of this state. "Kindergarten teachers show a higher percentage of professional training than the teachers of any other division of our public schools," Kersey commented, "with 99.3 per cent having graduated at least from a teachers college." California's elementary school program has advanced to the point where practically all children in the state, of elementary school age, are either in public schools, or exempt because of equivalent private school or tutor instruction, Kersey reported. "The junior high schools now number 153 in California, enrolling 100,000 pupils," the superintendent said. "This innovation is increasing in its success and has resulted in many children remaining in school for at least one year, and frequently longer than they otherwise would have." High school graduation has come to be the standard of educational ambition City Clerk E. B. Merritt's annual report presented to the council Tuesday night shows that the city's finances are in excellent condition, with a cash balance in the treasury of $146,643.88. Of this amount $43,927.57 is in the general fund. This report also shows that building permits to the amount of $512,541.00 were issued during the fiscal year. The bonded indebtedness of the city is 711,356.36, and the real estate and other property owned by the city aggregates 11,270,923.50. The total assessed valuation of the city this year is $12,781,-140.00. The fire department maintained its reputation for efficient service. There were 57 calls during the year, and the total property loss from fires was only $2975. An ordinance was introduced providing for an addition of three members to the city planning commission. City Manager J. W. Price announced that this was in accordance with a new state law. The ordinance will be adopted at the next meeting and the new members will probably be appointed at that time. An ordinance was adopted appropriating a fund of $6000 for advertising and promotion purposes. A portion of the sum will be used for paying for music. This meeting was the time set for hearing protests on the matter of acquisition and improvement district No. 2, for widening of West Center Street. Only one objection was received, it being submitted by Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Wittmer, representing only 10 per cent of the frontage involved, according to Price. The objection was over-rulded. A contract for transformers for the city was awarded to the General Electric company, the contract calling for an expenditure of from $1000 to $5000 according to the city's needs for the fiscal year. The meter contract to the years requirements, at a cost of $2500 went to the Duncan Meter company. The preliminary statement of Stanley Goode, district civic supervisor was read and placed on file. Goode stated in an accompanying communication that the figures were preliminary and subject to correction. Monthly reports read last night included that of former city recorder Eldon Stark stating that he tried a total of fourteen cases during the month of April, collecting fines amounting to $277.00. City Recorder Frank Tausch's report showed that he tried five cases in April, and collected a total in fines of $202. Chief of Police James S. Bouldin presented a detailed report of the police department's activities for April. Appointment of V. L. Curran as deputy patrolman was approved by the council. Only three fires occurred in Anaheim during the month of April, and these represented a total damage of only $10, according to the report of Fire Chief Rudolph Nyboe. Nyboe also reported on the building department's activities.

Gates Returns From Mexican Trip Howard Gates returned Saturday from Mexico where he spent nearly three months in quest of rare cacti. He came back with a large quantity of seeds of varieties hitherto unknown, which he will propagate in his gardens, but it is his purpose to sell only at wholesale. He traversed the entire length of lower California, going down to the southernmost point, and found many specimens of the cactus that were new to him. He hobbled with the Yaqui Indians and found them friendly and deserving of the bloodthirsty reputation some writers have given them. Trout in the cool waters of Bear Creek, mountain scenery, and the lure of an open camp fire this week entranced a quartet of Anaheim businessmen. L. N. Wisser, of the Wisser Sports store; D. D. Morris, of the Morris Apparel Shop; N. Jobst of the J. & N. Shop; and Harry Carter Tuesday morning motored to their destination and were scheduled to return Thursday afternoon or evening with something besides fish stories. The junior high schools now number 153 in California, enrolling 100,000 pupils, the superintendent said. "This innovation is increasing in its success and has resulted in many children remaining in school for at least one year, and frequently longer than they otherwise would have." High school graduation has come to be the standard of educational ambition for the youth of California, Kersey declared. High school education is available to every child at public cost. "Subjects are offered in the high schools to meet needs of children of varying interests and aptitudes," said Kersey. "This has drawn and kept in the high schools increasing proportions of children. It is reliably estimated that well over 80 percent of children of high school age are enrolled in these schools." Strides taken by the junior college system of California are pointed out with pride by Kersey, who said: "Through the most advanced system of junior colleges in the nation, California is offering advanced secondary schooling to over 15,000 students. Recent trends in the junior college movement augur a continuance of the present period of expansion of this system. Eventually this advanced education will be available to all who desire it." The report concluded with a resume of progress in adult education, handicapped individuals, and migratory children. Pre-Nuptial Shower Miss Stella Jackson entertained on Saturday evening at a delightful shower and bridge party in honor of Miss Caroline Bode, daughter of Rev. and Mrs. A. G. H.

EMILY Number 33 SHOW THURSDAY. WHAT IT COST TO BREAK THE LAW Anaheim Citizens Paid $12,809.21 In Fines During the Past Year Breaking the law, a quaint old past-time that seems to be growing in popularity these days, cost citizens of Anaheim exactly $12,809.21 in fines last year. The offenses for which penalties were levied included everything from peddling without a license, crapshooting, "stepping on the gas" on state highways, to assault and battery, selling home brew or common theft. To combat the rapid growth of crime in California, a new state department of penology was created by the 1929 legislature, and is now functioning. This embraces the Divisions of Criminal Identification, State Prison Board, Narcotics Enforcement, Criminology, Pardons and Commutations and the Crime Commission. The Crime Commission, formerly a legislative agency, carries on a year-round study of crime, its cause and prevention. At the 1931 legislature it FEW ACCIDENTS ON HIGHWAYS LAST WEEK Seriously Injured Man Left by Side of the Road by a Hit and Run Driver Notwithstanding the large number of cars that congested the Orange county highways Sunday, there were no fatal accidents, and only a few persons were injured over the week end. Frank Klaknavate, 28 out of work and hitch hiking over the country in search of a job, was struck by an unknown hit and run driver on the Coast highway near Twenty-third street Huntington Beach about 8 p.m. Saturday. Klaknavate dragged himself off the highway after being hit and lay beside the roadway in a semiconcious condition until 4:45 a.m. Sunday, when OFFICERS RAID LOS ALAMITOS Ten Stills Confiscated by the Sheriff's Deputies Monday and Much Liquor Siezed Los Alamitos, the little sugar town down by the sea, is the wettest place in Orange county—or rather, it was until the sheriff's deputies put the town's most thriving business out of commission a few days ago. With the confiscation of 10 whiskey stills, located within two blocks of each other on Walnut street, Los Alamitos. Monday afternoon, deputy sheriffs, led by F. W. Howard, chief criminal deputy sheriff, were of the opinion Monday that they had hung up some sort of a record in enforcing the prohibition laws. The roundup of stills was the largest in number ever reported in this county in a single raid. Most of the stills were small ones, although there was one of 40 gallons daily capacity and one capable of making 50 gallons of whiskey per day, it was reported. Eight of the stills, all little ones, and all the same size, were found in one Notwithstanding the large number of cars that congested the Orange county highways Sunday, there were no fatal accidents, and only a few persons were injured over the week end. Frank Klaknavate, 28) out of work and hitch hiking over the country in search of a job, was struck by an unknown hit and run driver on the Coast highway near Twenty-third street Huntington Beach about 8 p.m., Saturday. Klaknavate dragged himself off the highway after being hit and lay beside the roadway in a semiconscious condition until 4:45 a.m., Sunday, when R. C. Shroeder of Long Beach, found him. Klaknavate suffered a severe cut on the head and his leg was broken above the knee, the bone protruding through the flesh. It is said he probably will recover, but the right leg will have to be amputated, it is stated. Shroeder, after discovering the injured man, got word to the police and Klaknavate was brought to the emergency hospital, where he was given first aid. Latter he was taken to the Orange county hospital. Klaknavate was able to tell his name and gave his home address as Frackville, Pa. He did not get the number of the auto that struck him. He had lain beside the road all night. Thousands of autos had passed within a few feet of him but he could not seem to attract attention. Alice Rugg was cut and bruised when the car in which she was riding was involved in a collision with a machine driven by A. R. Kelley. The accident took place at the intersection of Pine street and Orange avenues at 11 p.m., Saturday. Kelley suffered from crushed ribs as a result of the mishap.

VALENCIAS AND QUAKERS IN TIE Anaheim Shares Honors at Top of Night Ball League as First Quarter Ends Monday afternoon, deputy sheriffs, led by F. W. Howard, chief criminal deputy sheriff, were of the opinion Monday that they had hung up some sort of a record in enforcing the prohibition laws. The roundup of stills was the largest in number ever reported in this county in a single raid. Most of the stills were small ones, although there was one of 40 gallons daily capacity and one capable of making 50 gallons of whiskey per day, it was reported. Eight of the stills, all little ones, and all the same size, were found in one house. In two other houses two other stills were taken, but all were within two blocks of each other. The three houses raided by Howard and the other deputies were vacant, and therefore no arrests were made. Several of the stills were in operation at the time of the raid. A total of 140 gallons of whiskey were confiscated in the three houses and 5000 gallons of mash were dumped. Howard reported. The whiskey was brought to the Sheriff's office, where it will be held pending an investigation now under way. Several gallons of ralsin brandy also was found by officers, it was reported. The scene of the raid was within 300 yards of a place where sheriff's officers found 600 gallons of whiskey several weeks ago, together with six other stills which were found in two other houses. During the past two months, deputy sheriffs, under Howard's supervision, have confiscated a total of 18 stills in Los Alamitos, another record of some kind or other, they believe. Officers who conducted the raid were Deputies Howard, Buckles, Scudder and Hunter Leach. Funeral services for Mrs. Louise Karloff, 64, who died Sunday night after an illness of a month's duration, were held Wednesday. The Karloff family came to Anaheim 34 years ago, residing on a ranch on Ball road about two miles west of the city. Surviving Mrs. Karloff are three children, Walter, Elisle and Bertha, all residents of Anaheim. Funeral services were held at 2 o'clock from the Backs, Terry and Campbell funeral chapel, with the Rev. H. G. Schmelitzer, pastor of the Zion Lutheran church of Ellicating. Interment was made in Loma Vista Memorial park. When gradma gets a boyish bob she doesn't look like an old lady any more—in fact she looks like an old man.
