BASIC ECONOMIC CONDITION OF SOUTHLAND DECLARED STRONG Southern California's basic economic position was described as "one of the strongest in the nation" to day in the annual report of James R. Page, president of the All-Year club, official southland tourist organization. Page said the southland's healthy foundation is the result of "imported new wealth" through the petroleum, tourist, motion picture, aviation, and citrus industries. Of these, the tourist business brought $193,634,763 here last year. The report was delivered at the All-Year club's annual meeting at which Page was re-elected president and P. G. Winnett and Porter Bruck were re-elected first and second vice-presidents. Willard Keith was elected treasurer succeeding Donald O'Melveny. Don Thomas, managing director, was re-elected secretary. The following new directors were elected Homer Merchant, Paul Helms, Harold W. Tuttle. In addition to the officers, members named to the management committee included F. N. Rush, Ray E. Nimmo, Neil Petree, A. L. Weil. Page in his report said "Southern California's basic economic position is one of the strongest in the nation. A number of factors, using statistics of the city of Los Angeles for comparison with other major areas, clearly reflect the southland's economic status." "Los Angeles is America's fifth largest city, yet it is America's first city in auto ownership per capita. It is second highest in residential building; and it is second lowest in per cent of tax delinquencies among cities of 500,-000 or more. Los Angeles county has 11.7% fewer persons on relief than the national average Los Angeles' per capita spendable income is 66.6% above the national average." "The reason for our sound fact that the wars have closed the doors to Europe. A trip to southern California is going to be advertised as "a handy way to globe-trot, in an active bid for the trade of thousands of Americans who can't go to Europe because of the war." The facts that the Hollywood movies have long known will be exploited — that within a few hours drive are found scenery typical of rural England, the Alps, Sahara, Holy Land, Dead Sea, French Riviera, Italy, Japan, and almost any place on the globe. California won the "battle of the fairs" last year, Thomas reported. At the time the All-Year club began the largest national advertising campaign featuring the fair, it was authoritatively predicted that New York's Fair would outdraw the San Francisco Exposition heavily. Actually it did no better than two-to-one, despite an eight-to-one bulge in local population. New York was also slated to draw 40% of its attendance from outside the local eastern area. It did only half this well, the rest of the people apparently going to San Francisco instead... In order to outsell the appeal of the New York show and give Americans an added reason for coming west instead of going east, the All-Year club has advertised "Combine an air-cooled southern California vacation with a visit to the fair," a strategy which drew extra thousands to the southland. NEBRASKA PICNIC The annual spring picnic reunion of Nebraska in southern California will be held in Sycamore Grove park, Los Angeles, all day Saturday, March 23, with basket picnic dinners at noon, followed by a program. County registers will be opened during the morning. Philadelphia Has Edge Over Foes Athletics Beat Seattle, San Diego, Los Angeles and Hollywood The Philadelphia Athletics lost their first game of the training season campaign last Saturday when they bowed to the San Diego Padres, 14 to 6, in a contest played at the border city. That loss is the only one chalked up against the A's as against victories over Seattle, Los Angeles twice, San Diego and Hollywood during the past week. A large crowd of Anaheim fans accompanied the Philadelphia club to San Fernando last Thursday for a return game with Jack Lelivelt's Seattle Rainiers and to help dedicate San Fernando's new ballpark. They saw Lefty Ross, Elon Hogsett and Johnny Babich limit the Rainiers to seven hits and a run while their mates were picking up four tallies off Rainier hurling. The victory was costly, however, as Bob Johnson, heavy hitting leftfielder, pulled a muscle in his leg and is temporarily on the shelf. Friday, the Athletics moved over to Long Beach to meet Jigger Statz's Los Angeles Angels, and managed to eke out a 10 to 9 victory after 12 innings. Eddie Collins' long drive to center that scored Sam Chapman from third ended the battle. George Caster, Herman Besse, Jim Mitchell and Ed Heusser shared mound duties for the A's. Al Simmons and Besse each rapped out homeruns. Although they lost Saturday's encounter at San Diego, the Athletics reversed the decision Sunday with a 6 to 3 victory. Pat McLaughlin., Chubby Dean and Les McCrabb were raked for a total of 19 hits on Saturday, but Nelson Potter, Chet Poindexter and Bill Beckman held the Padres to five blows on Sunday. Manager Connie Mack and Catcher Earl Brucker were honor- "Los Angeles is America's fifth largest city, yet it is America's first city in auto ownership per capita. It is second highest in residential building; and it is second lowest in per cent of tax delinquencies among cities of 500,000 or more. Los Angeles county has 11.7% fewer persons on relief than the national average Los Angeles' per capita spendable income is 66.6% above the national average. "The reason for our sound foundation is importing new wealth through sales outside the area of oil, climate (to tourists), movies, airplanes, and citrus—in that order. Last year 1,703,167 visitors came to southern California. They poured $193,834,763 into the pockets of local residents who in turn spent it in our local trade channels." Managing Director Thomas reported to the board that this year's advertising campaign to draw a million new visitors to southern California will capitalize upon the annual spring picnic reunion of Nebraska in southern California will be held in Sycamore Grove park, Los Angeles, all day Saturday, March 23, with basket picnic dinners at noon, followed by a program. County registers will be opened during the morning. "Ran Nine Little Mice into a Big Fortune."

One of the Bible selections of the Lesson-Sermon presents the verses from the Psalms: "By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth... Let all earth fear the LORD: all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him. For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast... The kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and thy dominion endures throughout all generations... The eyes of all wait upon them and thou givest them their meat due season. Thou openest the hand, and satisfies the desire every living thing." Included in the Lesson-Sermon are these passages from the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to Scriptures," by Mary Baker Edgar. "Substance is that which is eternal and incapable of discord and cay. Truth, Life, and Love substance, as the Scripture this word in Hebrews: 'The substance of things hoped for, evidence of things not seen.'" Philadelphia Has Edge Over Foes Beat Seattle, San Diego, Los Angeles and Hollywood ATHLETICS NEAR END OF STAY With only two more games scheduled for La Palma park stadium, Connie Mack’s Philadelphia Athletics are nearing the close of their stay in Anaheim for this season. They will return next spring, however, and the chances are that they will play even more games here, with additional contests expected with major league foes. Orange county will see its first all-major league game tomorrow afternoon when the Athletics play hosts to the Pittsburgh Pirates, managed this year by Frankie Frisch, the old Fordham Flash. Additional interest is created in the game here because of the appearance at shortstop for the Pirates of Floyd “Arky” Vaughan, former Fullerton high school all-around athletic star. The grand finale of the exhibition series here will be played Monday afternoon with the Chicago White Sox furnishing the opposition. Monday has been set aside as “Anaheim Day” and one of the largest crowds of the season is expected to be on hand for the encounter. The Athletics will break camp here after the tilt Monday and play a few games in Los Angeles and the San Francisco bay region before hitting the homeward trail. It is safe to say that the club is well advanced in its conditioning. Weather conditions this spring have been almost perfect, and the excellent facilities at La Palma stadium have proved beneficial.

One is to buy leather jackets and other awards for members of the Hornet varsity of this year; the second is to send Fred Goss, Fullerton Jaysee backstroke swimming ace, to the National A.U. championships, and the third to send John Flanagan, president of the Fullerton Junior chamber to the convention of the United States Junior Chamber of Commerce in Washington this summer.
