This Paper Accepts All Advertising on the Understanding that Its Circulation Equals Any Three Others In This Field. JL. XXIV—No. 147 PROBE S. DRILL FOR OIL CLOSE TO LIMITS Two Oil Propositions Being Seriously Considered on Ball-rd, Just Outside Anaheim. Interest in the oil leasing proposition has shifted the last few days from the west side of Anaheim in the Magnolia and Stanton districts, to the south of the city, along the Ball-rd. As on the west side, there are apparently two distinct propositions. One, on the east Ball-rd, between the Santa Fe and S. P. tracks, it was reported today, looked more like early and real drilling action than anything that has been undertaken near Anaheim. The other proposition is for a community lease of 700 acres on the west Ball-rd. The Ball-rd is about a mile south Magnolia and Stanton districts, to the south of the city, along the Ball-rd. As on the west side, there are apparently two distinct propositions. One, on the east Ball-rd, between the Santa Fe and S. P. tracks, it was reported today, looked more like early and real drilling action than anything that has been undertaken near Anaheim. The other proposition is for a community lease of 700 acres on the west Ball-rd. The Ball-rd is about a mile south of Center-st. Anaheim. The early drilling proposition, according to reports, is on the 10-acre Rice ranch, about midway between the two railroads. Rice lives in Los Angeles and is reported to have interested a group of Los Angeles people in the formation of a company to will drill as soon as they can get so. They will not attempt to lease other property now, according to the report. If they get oil and others want to come in later, all well and god. Rice has been bringing a number of Los Angeles people down to the ranch each Sunday. Last Sunday there were 38 people at the ranch. They ate lunches they brot along on tables spread out of doors. It was also reported today that a packing house had been ordered to pick a number of trees clean of fruit so there would be no loss from that source in erecting a derrick. Yesterday afternoon at the Simon Toussou ranch on West Ball-rd about 25 ranchers assembled to meet a man by the name of White seeking to lease 700 acres in the vicinity. Another meeting to consider the proposition further, will be held tomorrow, either at the Toussou home or at the E. J. Eaton home, also on the Ball-rd. J. L. Wilson, of Orange, was appointed chairman of the meeting yesterday and a secretary was also appointed. This is the third meeting of the farmers and the oil men.

TWENTY-FOURTH YEAR NFERNO BLAME SIGNAL FOR CRASH 1 KILLED; MANY HURT An investigation by county officials and by the Southern Pacific railway was begun today into the fatal and spectacular crash between a Southern Pacific motor coach bound for Anaheim and an automobile truck and trailer laden with death-dealing gasoline. The collision occurred at the Southgate Gardens' grade crossing, killing one woman and injuring more than a dozen other passengers on the motor car. According to statements made to officials who reached the scene, the crossing signal apparently did not work to give Walter Pratt, driver of the truck, a warning of the approach of the motor car, which was traveling 25 miles an hour. The crash occurred at dusk. Pratt declared he did not see the heavy car until upon the tracks. Several persons removed to hospitals were reported to be in a serious condition today, but all were expected to recover. All but Mr. Faust were treated at the Huntington Park hospital where ANAHEIM MEN GIVE VIVID DESCRIPTION OF AWFUL INFERNO Arthur Benfield, diamond setter, of East Sycamore, st. Anaheim, and his brother, Kenneth Benfield, here on a two weeks' visits from Brooklyn, N. Y., were probably the first to get out of the blazing S. P. motor car last night. Their names were not included in first reports of injured. Kenneth Benfield sustained the more serious injuries of the two. He According to statements made to officials who reached the scene, the crossing signal apparently did not work to give Walter Pratt, driver of the truck, a warning of the approach of the motor car, which was traveling 25 miles an hour. The crash occurred at dusk. Pratt declared he did not see the heavy car until upon the tracks. Several persons removed to hospitals were reported to be in a serious condition today, but all were expected to recover. All but Mr. Faust were treated at the Huntington Park hospital, where the more seriously hurt still are. Mr. Faust was sent to the Golden State hospital, Los Angeles. Mrs. Faust's body, trampled beneath the feet of the other passengers, alone remained in the blazing car after the other passengers had escaped and, the burned beyond recognition, was rescued by men who themselves were suffering from painful burns and cuts. The motor coach carrying the train crew and 18 passengers bound for their homes in Santa Ana, Downey, Anaheim and Buena Park, left the South Pacific station at 5:30 p.m. Fifteen minutes later the collision occurred. According to the train crew, the motor truck, travelling about 15 miles an hour toward Long Beach, ran head on into the side of the motor train, which was speeding at the rate of 25 miles per hour. WHAT ENGINEER SAYS. Grant Leach was engineer of the passenger car. "I first saw the truck when I was about 100 feet from the crossing," he said. "The truck and trailer were going about 15 miles an hour. I sounded the signal, but evidently the truck driver felt he could beat me across the track. Then came the crash. I threw on the air brakes immediately, but the train had rolled on for 18 feet before I could stop it. By this time it was a mass of flames and there was a crashing of glass, mingled cries of children and the loud shouts of men." Leach smashed the front window of his compartment and leaped out to the ground as soon as he stopped the coach. Then he helped in the rescue of the women passengers. At the moment of the crash, many of the five-gallon gasoline containers burst, and their contents were sprayed over the coach and thrue some of the open windows. The exact cause of the ignition of the gasoline which amounted to 2000 gallons is not known, one theory advanced is that the flame from the prestolite tank on the auto truck had touched off the fluid. The troch the coach stood over 100 feet from the truck, it was reduced to a red-hot metal frame by the flames. The small round windows in the side of the coach were the only avenues of escape. These were broken by the men and women with their feet and hands. Those who were not burned inside the coach received painful lacerations while climbing thru these windows. WINID DESCRIPTION OF AWFUL INFERNO Arthur Benfield, diamond setter, of East Sycamore,-at, Anaheim, and his brother, Kenneth Benfield, here on a two weeks' visits from Brooklyn, N.Y., were probably the first to get out of the blazing S. P. motor-car last night. Their names were not included in first reports of injured. Kenneth Benfield sustained the more serious injuries of the two. He suffered cuts on his hands and arms, severing an artery in the arm and another in a finger. He also has bruises and cuts about the face and head. His shoes and clothing were cut. He had been visiting a brother in Los Angeles and was coming to Anaheim to complete his stay in Cal. before leaving Tuesday for the east. Arthur Benfield makes the trip back and forth daily between his home here and his place of business in Los Angeles. He did not receive any serious abrasion but is suffering from bruises and internal strains. At the hospital, he says, a dislocated vertebra in his neck was pushed back into place. Both lost overcoats and hats in the flames, and the Brooklyn man lost his suitcase with traveling clothes and a large quantity of films he had made on his trip. The Benfields were taken to the Vernon hospital. Their brother, Percy Benfield, of Los Angeles brom them to Anaheim about 10 p.m. At the Benfield home today they were "taking things easy" and getting softer all the while. They gave a vivid account of the catastrophe. "We were riding in the smoking compartment," said Arthur Benfield. "I saw the truck before it hit us and exclaimed: 'We're going to hit something.' At the impact of the collision I thought our car was going to turn over and everything and everybody was shuffled around in confusion. Immediately there was a terrific explosion of the gasoline and a roar like a volcano of the burning fluid, thrown all over the outside of the car and thrue doors. The air immediately choked up with gas. Quicker than it takes to tell it. I realized we must act very quickly if we were to get out alive and we started to break out the glass with our hands. That is where we got our cuts. Another fellow tried to go out the same hole with me. I dropped to the ground before the car stopped, in fact while it was still going at a rapid rate of speed. "My brother yas also out before the car stopped, landing squarely on his head. Miss Marjorie Day, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. F. K. Day, of the County-rd was also among the first to get out. She thinks one man preceded her. As soon as the inferno ignited she realized she would have to get out thru the window and she broke the thick glass with her hands. She said today that it seemed as if the entire not known, one theory advanced is that the flame from the prestolite tank on the auto truck had touched off the fluid. The truck was totally demolished. The coach stood over 100 feet from the truck, it was reduced to a red-hot metal frame by the flames. The small round windows in the side of the coach were the only avenues of escape. These were broken by the men and women with their feet and hands. Those who were not burned inside the coach received painful lacerations while climbing thru these windows. L. M. Best, the train conductor, stated that the coach contained 18 passengers. Three men comprised the train crew. Best was one of the first to escape thru one of the small windows. Other men followed with him. Women found difficulty in scrambling thru the small glass-fringed apertures. Stouter persons were unable to get thru them and suffered severe burns while frantic men struggled to open the jammed doors. STORY OF PASSENGERS Irma Robison of Buena Park was returning to her home from the southern branch of the State University, where she is a student. With her was her chum, Miss Margaret Billig, of Anaheim, who is a student at the Brownsberger Business College. Both the girls were "snoozing," they said, in the rear compartment of the coach. Following the collision, Miss Robison said, as she lay on a cot in the (Continued on Last Page) SAUNDERS TO TEST GARAGE ZONE ACT Walter Saunders, West Center-st garage man, will test out the city council's new garage zoning act. The council last Thursday evening instructed the city marshal to arrest Saunders if he persisted in operating a garage outside the garage zone. Saunders decided to test out the ordinance, submitting to arrest yesterday. He will appear before Justice Howard next Tuesday. Saunders' position is that he has a right to use his private garage, which is his personal property, for repairing cars of others than his own. The city maintains it is outside the recognized zone and is bothersome to neighbors. MISS MARGARET DILLIG, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. F. K. Day, of the County-rd was also among the first to get out. She thinks one man preceded her. As soon as the inferno ignited she realized she would have to get out thru the window and she broke the thick glass with her hands. She said today that it seemed as if the entire circle of glass came out at once. She hesitated only as she glanced at the blazing gasoline, which covered the ground, and then she says she doesn't remember how she got out. She sustained some cuts and bursises but she is suffering more from shock, not having been able to close her eyes last night." She has been attending school in Los Angeles, making several trips back and forth each week. Another passenger whose name was not included in early accounts was George Mattis, of So-Palm-st, father of "Red" Mattis, the well-known boxer. He also suffered cuts, bruises and some burns. Miss Margaret Billig had not been brot home this afternoon from the hospital at Huntington Park where she was taken immediately following the accident. Her uncle, Clinton Billig, of Los Angeles, and his family came down to see her but went back to the hospital when they found no one at home. Mr. Billig stated that he had been informed that Miss Billig was badly burned about the face. She pleaded to be brot home last night, he said, but the physicians would not permit it. Late this afternoon Ellsworth Billig, brother of Miss Billig, who went up to the hospital following the accident says his sister is badly burned about the face but that his father, H. E. Billig, declared he would bring her home this evening if she was able to be moved at all. Miss Billig's mother has remained at her bedside since she was taken to the hospital. Miss Billig was returning home from school in Los Angeles.
