Don’t Be Fooled By Olympic Fakes Residents Warned About Giving Money On Pleas of Helping Athletic Contests Beware of Olympic games fakers! This warning is being sounded throughout Southern California by responsible heads of the Olympic games groups, including General Manager N. H. Sloan of the California state chamber of commerce, and James A. Garland, head of the Los Angeles group which is directing and which brought the games to Los Angeles. Only three means of raising funds for the Olympic games have been officially endorsed. One is through organization in local communities throughout America by responsible resident committee members of funds with which to send American athletics to the Olympics; the second is through sale of Olympic automobile plates by Van-Spere Sales corporation, with a certificate attached to each set of plates signed by George W. Graves of Detroit, treasurer of the Olympic games committee; and the last, one authorized souvenir booklet of the Olympic games to be put out by the Neuner Printing and Lithographing company of Los Angeles, to be sold for not more than 50 cents, and to contain no advertising. Scores of individuals have been through Orange county within the last few months attempting to sell “false credentials, stickers, stamps, souvenir booklets and advertising, all falsely claiming endorsement or approval of the Olympic games committee,” according to Sloan. Several chambers of commerce, including those in Anaheim and Fullerton, have given endorsement to what at first appeared to be authorized Olympic games means of raising funds, but which afterward proved to be nothing but fakes, with the money thus raised going to private concerns and individuals. Before contributing to any Olympic games scheme for raising money, residents are warned to see that it is one of the three official ways of raising funds.

Major Frank Ey Wins Vindication Handling of Father’s $180,000 Estate Receives Approval of Court Major Frank Ey’s handling of his father’s $180,000 estate was completely vindicated Tuesday when Superior Court Judge Warmer of San Bernardino, presiding at Santa Ana, vacated an order removing the major as administrator and reappointed him, with power to proceed with settling the estate. Charges of Alfred C. Ey of Palo Alto nephew of the late Frank Ey Sr., former mayor of Santa Ana, that Major Frank Ey Jr., had mismanaged the estate, with Alfred Ey’s request that he be removed as administrator were withdrawn. Stipulation of Major Ey’s reappointment was that the contestant receive $75,000 of which $40,000 will be placed in trust and become available to him when he is 30 years of age.

Voters of this state voted $2,000,000 two years ago to care for the Olympic games cost to Californians and this eliminates much of the soliciting which otherwise might have been needed to insure success of the gigantic athletic carnival.

Financial LOANS TO INDIVIDUALS $100—$1200 CO-MAKERS OR COLLATERAL Autos Refinanced Fresh Vegetables Meeting Demands Proof that California fruit and vegetable growers are meeting the exacting demands of the present consumers' market for the fresh product, is strongly indicated by the record demand made in March for shipping point inspection service by the state department of agriculture. It was announced by Dudley Moulton, director of the department. The inspections, which are purely voluntary, are in addition to the standardization inspection made by the county agricultural commissioners. The shipping point inspections, which are a joint federal and state service establish grade classifications for the product, whereas the standardization conducted by the county commissioners cover certain statutory demands as to the manner in which the product is packed and the quality of the fruit or vegetable and enforce rules against deception in labeling or otherwise marking the different classifications and deceptive packs. As the shipping point inspections directly affect the market insofar as quality is concerned, the growers are utilizing them more widely in the effort to achieve a more satisfactory income. One counteracting factor, however, is the present state of the export trade, which is adversely affected by the lowered value of silver, and consequently the lowered purchasing power in the Asiatic countries, and the unbalanced state of European and south American finances. The Imperial Valley achieved the highest number of shipping point inspections for the month, the principal product being lettuce. The Los Angeles district came next with celery and other winter vegetables. The Santa Maria-Guadalupe district was third, with cauliflower and early peas as the principal items. The San Jose-Hayward district inspections covered cauliflower shipments principally... Painting, paperhanging. J. E. Sayler, 616 S. Philadelphia St., Phone 2761.

(Mike) Hogue, well known Brea humorist, was unanimously elected mayor of Brea at the city council meeting and reorganization held last week. He appointed J. D. Wakeman in charge of the fire department; J. F. Schweitzer, chairman of the park and water committee; O. S. Close, chairman of the police committee; and W. C. Baldwin, chairman of the street committee. Ever See a Baby Beaver? Gray Owl, an Apache Indian who lives in the back country of Manitoba, is an authority on beavers and is shown feeding a "kitten." This is a motor age, but around the Plaza Hotel there is a collection of victorias and hansoms with drivers who wear worn top hats and don't seem to have a care in the world. To crawl aboard one of these horse drawn carriages is an experience. The driver is always friendly and talkative, and he will always tell of the days gone by. It is estimated there are two-thirds of a million birds in the homes of New Yorkers. Traffic in birds usually achieves its peak during the pre-holiday period. There are 300 places in the city where you can buy birds. New Yorkers are laughing over this bit of overheard theatre conversation: "Artistic, aint it?" "Yeah—but it's good." "The Tombs" is a nickname for the city prison, suggested long ago by the gloomy architecture which made it for many years one of the landmarks of the city. In 1898 it was rebuilt in a greatly enlarged form and nothing now remains of the picturesque exterior, which was perhaps the best example of Egyptian style in the country. A New York business man asked his wife if she wanted to go to the opera. "Yes," she said. "What will we hear?" "The Barber of Seville," he said. What they heard was "Samson and Delilah." There are hundreds of dogs in New York which are housed in city apartments and which never get to the street level. When taken for a walk these dogs are taken to the roof. A New Yorker wrote to a newspaper this week that he saw a butterfly at Sixth avenue and 38th Street. Expect Unexpected In Troy-Card Meet Pre-Contest Prognosticators To Get Surprise, In Opinion of Cromwell Although Frank Wykoff of Southern California, world's 100-yard dash record holder, and Ben Eastman of Stanford, record smasher in the 440 and 880, will be the principal individual attractors when Trojans and Indians clash at the Olympic stadium here Saturday in their annual dual meet, in nearly every event there will be plenty of fireworks for the fans in the way of close competition. A few of the features that pre-meet dopesters look for on the track are as follows: a close finish between Wykoff and Ball of S. C. and Hables of Stanford in the 100 and 220. Eastman to run better than 48 seconds to beat Woessner of S. C., but to have just a breeze in the 880. Ferrie of Stanford to give Halstead a hot chase in the mile, Callahan of S. C. and Amdahl of Stanford to run neck and neck in the 2-mile. Welsh of S. C. and Meier of Stanford to have a close battle in the high hurdles with Bills of the Trojans possibly crowding in. Meier to give the Trojan low hurdles who will probably be Payne, Carls and Paul a scare, and Stanford to win the relay in fast time. Expect Unexpected On the field pre-meet prognosticators look for the following: Stanford to sweep the shot put with Gray, Lyman and LaBorde and to give Hall of S. C. only a bare chance to score in the discus. Ray of Stanford to stage a close javelin throwing battle with Williamson of S. C. with the Indian tosser favored. Graber of Southern California to find plenty of competition in the pole vault from a trio of improving Indian飞手. Barber of the Trojans favored in the broad jump with anything liable to happen between Johnson and Paul of S. C. and Werder and Butler of Stanford. Southern California to dominate the high jump with Van Osdel, Brannan and Stewart. Because of the closeness of the com- "Yes," she said. "What will we hear?" "The Barber of Seville," he said.

When taken for a walk these dogs are taken to the roof. A New Yorker wrote to a newspaper this week that he saw a butterfly at Sixth avenue and 38th Street. It was a bit of news, if true, worth recording. There is a man in New York who owns two trained seals. He makes a living by having his seals perform at parties. Popular songs come and go and people forget but Broadway doesn't. Into a music publishing house the other day jauntly walked a self-assured man and a hush fell over the entire office. As he disappeared, unannounced through a door marked. "Private," a stranger in those parts asked an attache of the firm who he was. "Him," exclaimed the man with a rising inflection denoting he couldn't believe his ears? "Why, he's the first man who ever sang 'Aladadada.'" New York worships in twenty of the thirty-five tongues spoken on her streets. More than 200 of her churches belong to those who still cherish the ties of the land from which they sprang. New York eats more pork than beef, more beef than poultry, more poultry than fish, more fish than veal, mutton and lamb. The banana is the city's most popular fruit, with oranges second, and apples third. Did you ever hear of dinner shopping? Every evening between 6 and 8 o'clock hundreds go shopping in the West Forties, between Fifth and Sixth avenues and Broadway for dinner. Along this series of streets are a flock of restaurants which paste menus on their windows and hundreds night after night go from one restaurant to another to see which offers the most for the least money. There is a tobacco prescription shop in the city. A man goes into this shop, tells what brands he likes and is given a mixture in a tin box with his name typewritten on the label, together with a number. If he returns with the report that the tobacco is to strong, he is given another mixture and a new number. After he has found what he likes he orders by number. The dealer knows that some men like to be able to say that they smoke a tobacco especially mixed for them. There is a tobacco prescription shop in the city.

Without shame New York may accept the title of the foremost nickel-grabbing city in the world, since nickel-grabbing is done under pressure of necessity. Much time in the city is spent going after nickels where nothing but nickels will do. Nickels are needed for the telephone. The New Yorker does not like to part with his nickel. With a single one in his pocket he will pay for his paper with a dime so that he may have an extra one on hand. Getting a reserve fund of nickels is a never-ending game in New York. The great heart of the police force was again demonstrated recently. A policeman, rounding the corner at Fifth Avenue and East 50th Street early one morning, surprised a woman digging with a child's sand shovel in St. Patrick's Cathedral lawn. About to reprimand her, he discovered she was in the act of burying her pet canary, which lay dead in a cardboard box at her side. "Go ahead," he said. "But hurry; we don't want to be caught." Wall street received its name from the stockade or wall erected in 1653 by the last of the Dutch governors. At first this was merely a cattle guard, formed of felled trees with their roots all lying in one direction, to prevent cattle straying. Because of Indian troubles, disputes with the English and forages of wild animals, it was decided to make this barrier of considerable strength. So a stockade of stout timbers was erected with a gate at Broadway, another at the East River. This barrier, which stood for about half a century, was finally removed. Frequent reference by the people to the "wall" resulted in the permanent name for the street. Topic Prospects are covered in Contests Berry and Norman Parrish considered as splendid prospect the United States Olympic team as a result of their performances in the Los Angeles city championship meet sponsored by the University of Southern California. By taking a first in the free exercise, horizontal bar, parallel bars, and long horse, Berry earned enough points to be returned the winner in the all-round event in the senior division. Parrish, who recently set what is believed to be a new world's record in the rope climb at 5.6 seconds, won his specialty in the fast time of 5.9 seconds. Another probable Olympic prospect was uncovered when Louis Bayna, captain of the Trojan gymnastic team, led all competitors in the side horse by a comfortable margin.
