Almond Growers Get State Help Federal Farm Agencies Also Will Aid in Making the State-Wide Survey Launching of the first definite undertaking by state and federal farm agencies to make a study of a California crop commodity, an effort to help the almond growers through a survey of their industry, was announced recently by Dudley Moulton, director of the state department of agriculture. The industry survey will be conducted by the state department of agriculture, the University of California and the federal farm board. It was announced. The task of obtaining accurate facts has been allocated between the three cooperating organizations as follows: 1. The University of California has agreed to make an analysis of the almond industry, the supply and demand conditions and trends, the price-making factors, and other information showing the effects of existing competition on the industry to growers and marketing agencies. 2. The division of markets of the state department will support and promote the cooperative survey project and will ascertain the attitude of the growers and their leaders toward marketing, cooperative effort and the California Almond Growers exchange, according to Director Dudley Moulton. 3. The federal farm board has agreed to conduct an analysis of the operating policies, the financial and accounting records and the results which will point out how to make the exchange more effective. The survey of the almond industry was launched upon the request of the directors of the California Almond Exchange. Wallhide, a revolutionary paint idea. Color cards at our store—see them. Spencer, 166 West Center Street. Estate Division Asked By Princes Husbands of the American Actresses Want $239,144 From Strain Estate Claims totalling $239,144.55 have been filed against the estate of the late Thomas Strain, by Princess Sergee and David Mdvani, the action being contingent upon securing a reversal of a Los Angeles county court decision which upheld eviction from oil property in Venice. The two members of European royalty, both of whom have been involved in numerous romances with screen and stage stars during the past few years, ask $100,000 as damages for eviction from property leased from Strain; another $100,000 as exemplary damages; and $29,144.55 for personal losses. The claim was filed for the Pacific Shore Oil company, giving Price David as president. The brothers now are husbands of prominent American stage etars. Price Sergee Mdvani first was the husband of Pola Negri, Polish actress who divorced him; then as husband of Mary McCormick, Chicago opera star. Prince David Mdvani recently married May Murray film star.

A. Brock. Commissioner Brock admits that danger from brown rot after excessive rains is greater than otherwise, but insists it needn't prove as disastrous as some experts have pictured. He declares the greatest danger is that the grower won't spray in time to control the rot. In addition to sunshine, the mixture will combat the pest, he claims. Wet weather normally may be expected for at least another month, he points out. Average rainfall establish over a 50-year period has been exceeded this year in every Southern California district, while in most areas the rainfall to date has been twice what it was for the season last year.

It is particularly appropriate and significant that these boys and girls, the farmers and homemakers of the future, should honor the father of our country, for he was the outstanding progressive farmer of his time and the fore-runner of our agriculture experiment stations, and the colleges and extension service resulting therefrom, officials point out. The trees which the boys and girls planted were presented to the 4-H clubs by Mr., and Mrs. S. H. Druce of Santa Ana and Trabucco Canyon, who raised them from seed gathered from the famous "Christmas Tree Drive" at Altadena and hence are deodar cedars. In addition to planting club trees, the 4-H clubs of Orange county have co-operated wherever possible with local community and school commemorative programs. The 4-H clubs of the nation were especially requested to assist in the bi-centennial celebration by Sol Bloom, head of the National Washington celebration commission at Washington, D. C.

HORN RIMS SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON International Sunday School Lesson JESUS 'THE GOOD SHEPARD John 10:1-16 Rev. Samuel D. Price, D. D. Many think that here Jesus is still addressing the group that is watching the healed blind man during the aftermath of the Feast of Tabernacles in Jerusalem in the late fall of A. D. 29 in this unusually graphic parable. The Good Shepherd will bring two items to the notice of most readers: (1) The picture by Plochhurst, which bears this title and, (2) The Shepherd Psalm, the 23rd. It will be especially valuable in connection with this lesson to study each of the daily Bible readings, printed in every lesson quarterly. When there is the picture "I am the door," the original being in Oxford, England. The local audience sensed the meaning of this parable, but it was necessary for the Teacher to indicate the applications as they applied to His never failing care, even for the smallest latent. Adequate provision had been made for the spiritful safety of each one who would become His follower. As the oriental shepherd was able to call each one in his flock by name, so our Lord knows each individual most intimately, however great may be the world's throng. The vital question is, will we heed His voice and follow as trustingly as does the sheep when called by name! Pharisees were seeking to prevent the teachings of Jesus becoming effective. They certainly were heartless in their treatment of the healed blind man, when they denied him the right of their sanctuary as a place of worship. In marked contrast to their failure Jesus announced: "I am the door of the sheep—I am the good shepherd." Bill Hunter, S. C. Athletic Head, Says New Football Rules Won't Change Game Changes in the football rules to go into effect next fall will give a maximum of protection to the players without lessening the thrills or interest in the game, in the opinion of Willis O. Hunter, director of athletics at the University of Southern California and representative of the West on the National football rules committee who is home today from the organization's recent meetings in Hanover, N. H. "Changes in the rules were all decided upon as means of lessening hazards of the game without materially changing it," said Mr. Hunter. "In view of the large number of injuries last season, the committee made every effort to make the game safe without detracting from the general interest in it. "Information on the cause of football injuries was obtained from surveys made by the national coaches association and by the department of education at New York university in conjunction with the national board of casualty underwriters. Exhaustive information was also furnished by Fielding Yost and Parke Davis who made independent investigations. "To make a through inquiry into the subject, Chairman E. K. Hall of the rules committee took the precaution of inviting to the rules meetings Coach on outside as well as inside. This is to make the equipment protective for the wearers. 2. Kick-off rules revised to put five men on receiving team on the 45-yard line at time of kick-off, to permit kick-off by punt, dropkick or placekick, and to permit fair catch by receiver. While injuries were not reported numerous on kick-offs it was felt by rule makers that the massed wedge interference sometimes used on this play still had inherent dangers which the restriction of men to the 45-yard line would eliminate. Kicking off by punts makes higher kicks possible, gives kicking teams time to get down the field and eliminates the momentum of returns behind a flying wedge. The protection of the fair catch for receivers on punted kick-offs eliminates the possibility of a scramble for a high kicked ball. 3. Diving or throwing the body through the air on tackling and blocking to be prohibited. This rule is to protect players from hurting themselves in this style of play. Coaches agree that the most effective blocking and tackling are accomplished by players when they have their feet on the ground at the time they contact then opponents. This rule will not change the game and should result in players Harold Wahlberg in Charge of Institute at Tustin Friday and Saturday Approximately 500 avocado growers of Southern California will attend the second annual avocado growers' institute at Tustin, Friday and Saturday, February 26 and 27, according to Judge F.

"Information on the cause of football injuries was obtained from surveys made by the national coaches association and by the department of education at New York university in conjunction with the national board of casualty underwriters. Exhaustive information was also furnished by Fielding Yost and Parke Davis who made independent investigations." To make a through inquiry into the subject, Chairman E. K. Hall of the rules committee took the precaution of inviting to the rules meetings Coach Yost; Mal Stevens, president of the coaches association; a committee of three leading coaches, Howard Jones of Southern California, Lou Little of Columbia and Bill Alexander of Georgia Tech; Ed Thorpe, representative of equipment manufacturers, and an advisory committee of leading officials consisting of Walter Okeson, A. T. Palmer and Dr. F. A. Lambert. "It was the unanimous opinion of members of the rules committee and those who had been invited in that it was the intensive development of various styles of the game that was responsible for the hazards resulting in injuries." Mr. Hunter reviewed the rule changes and summarized their benefits as follows: 1.

MAIN STREET Looks at BROADWAY By "Observer" Never See America New Yorkers are generally condemned for sticking to the seaboard and never going west. A young woman who has traveled all over Europe, and crossed the ocean many times, recently remarked that she had never passed a night in a Pullman car. Under questioning, she admitted she had never been more than a couple of hundred miles away from the city in this country; had never been to California or even to Chicago, and knew next to nothing about her own country. There are millions of New Yorkers like her, even in these days of fast travel, although the condition is changing in recent years. The writer lived here for seventeen years before he ever got a hundred miles away from the Atlantic Ocean, although he had visited nearly all of the coast cities. New York Opportunities Gotham is beyond question the greatest city in the world for any man to make a fortune—or to lose it. Recently there died here a man nearing 80. Leopold Zimmerman. He went broke when 71 and made another fortune and paid off all his debts. Zimmerman's specialty was buying exchanges on foreign money. There is always a shade of difference between the currencies of the great nations and he used to buy in London and sell in New York by cable, pocketing the difference. It sounds simple but it really takes the finest kind of brains, which explains why Zimmerman enjoyed what amounted to a monopoly in his field.

The services began with an all-day program Monday, when at 10:30 o'clock Rev. C. M. Aker of Santa Ana opened the program. At noon Monday a pot-luck dinner was held, and in the afternoon Rev. Gray was the main speaker. Again, a pot-luck supper was held at 6 o'clock, at which students of Mrs. Leah Pemberton presented entertainment. Rev.

One Big Slash Everybody knows that prices of many things have come down but the biggest shock we have received in months came the other day when we noted a truck carrying a big sign through the Times Square district saying "Lenny-A-Dance." The movies have made us acquainted with the Dime-A-Dance establishments, where one can grab a more or less charming partner and amble about the room for a few minutes but we are still curious as to how long a cent will entitle one to swing a girl around a dance floor.

Canal Boatmen Few visitors to New York ever find one of the strangest colonies here. The colony is one of canal boats and their inhabitants. It is located almost at the foot of the island and whole families live on the boats, sending their children to school when they can, and hanging out the family washing on the lines, just like the ordinary dweller does in the backyard.
