ment, is reported as recommending the coining of two-dollar gold
pieces. Of what benefit to trade
would a two-dollar piece be anyway? Not the slightest. It would
not work in with our other coins.
There is no place for it. Like the
three-dollar gold piece and the
twenty-cent silver piece it would
be only a cause of confusion,
warriment and trouble to the
community. It would be a regular
romance.

Strong proof was brought forward by the defendant that he was not in the vicinity of Santa Ana street at the time the crime was committed, and he was consequently discharged.

SEATTLE. (AP) For the second year in a row Miss Pepsi, the twin engined giants from Detroit, shattered the qualifying record as all six entrants got safely under the wire for Saturday's 45th running of the Gold Cup speedboat race.
Chuck Thompson jammed the 10,500-pound monster around three laps of the three-mile Lake Washington course at an average speed of 103.448 miles per hour, shattering the 102.564 set Monday by the Gold Cup champion, Slo-Mo-Shun V.
In a crowded day of qualifying, Such Crist IV made the grade with an average of 91.139 in spite of engine trouble; Hurricane IV of Los Angeles whipped a bothersome bearing to qualify at 89.776 and Miss Great Lakes barely beat the setting sun with a run of 88.888.

Bloomers Cop Final Game; Meet Fullerton in Playoff Tomorrow
With trophies for the winners, playoffs in the summertime intercity high school age girl's softball league get under way tomorrow night at 7:15 p.m. as the Anaheim Bloomers meet Fullerton at Amerige park in Fullerton. In the second game, set for 8:30, Orange meets Brea.
A 1-1 tie going into the fourth, the game was loosed up at that point as Bloomer batters blasted out a double, a single, and a error that chased in three runs. The locals locked up the ball game in the fifth with two more runs off a pair of singles.
Top hitters of the evening, all with one for three trips to bat, were Marie Aum Dargatz, Kay Dierst, Mona Carner, Alice Weaver and Doris Holve. Both Weaver and Holve are batting over 400.
The Bloomers scored one double play when Kay Dierst scooped up a grounder at third, threw to Karen Legain at second who in turn relayed it to Mona Carner at first.
Again Doris Holve pitched the entire game. By striking out seven and with the assistance of tight fielding, she never had more than four batters up in any one.
The game capped a summer son for the Bloomers while their 8 win-4 loss record put in third place in the girls softball league.

Stars Win Second In 10 Starts as PC Race Tightens
By The Associated Press
It was strictly touch and go today in the Pacific Coast league race. The pace-setting Oakland Acorns held but didn't exactly enjoy a half-game lead over the Hollywood Stars and the San Diego Padres.
Oakland found the Portland Beavers too tough to handle and dropped a 4 to 1 decision. The Portland victory lifted the Beavers.
South Edges North, 20-19 in Shriner Game
LOS ANGELES. (P) — Football jumped off to an auspicious start last night with a band of southern California all-star high school gridders squeaking through to a 20-19 victory over a northern team in the first annual Shrine charity game.
A crowd of 29,688 poured through the coliseum turnstiles with proceeds going to the Shrinners' crippled children's fund.
Anaheim's Gene Geselle, co-captain of the southern squad with Cureton of Monrovia, played both offense and defense at his center position. A bulwark in the pivot position despite his underweight 190 pounds in a line averaging well over the 200 mark, the former AUHS all-CIF player contributing more than his share of blocking and tackling.
South Explodes
The South team scored all its points in a big second quarter and although the Northerners took the play in the final two stanzas, they couldn't take the lead.
It marked the final prep appearance for the stars who finished their high school eligibility last season.
North drew first blood in the opening quarter. Sam Brown and Carl Roepke smashed for big gains. Then with the ball on the five yard line, quarterback Bill Jacobs pitched out to fullback Doug Peters who crosed into payoffs.

Conversions proved the margin of victory as Jack Hernandez made good on two out of three tries for the South and Sam Brown booted only one through the uprights for the North.
