News of Fullerton J. C. MAY BE HIT BY PROPOSED BILL It may come as a shock to those who have regarded the Fullerton junior college as one of the fixtures of the city and district, to know that there is now pending before the legislature a bill which possibly deprive this community of that educational asset. A joint committee was appointed by the legislature of two years ago to investigate the California public school system and make recommendations to the present legislature. This committee has made a series of recommendations, some of which are revolutionary. These recommendations have been incorporated into a bill which is now pending. One feature of the bill, which would reorganize the public school system of the state, would limit the number of junior colleges and establish certain restrictions as to where they may be maintained. For one thing, a district to be allowed such an institution must have an assessed valuation of $10,000,000 and have a population of 15,000. This provision is not especially serious so far as Fullerton is concerned. The assessment of this union high school district is nearer $50,-000,000 than $10,000,000 and it is also believed that the population is well over the 15,000 mark. However, it is possible that other conditions will be named. It is possible that the regional system may be inaugurated. In other words, a definite number of junior colleges may be allowed and they may be distributed geographically. In that case a number of factors would enter into the situation, including political influences, as there would be numerous claimants for each college. It is a growing institution and is of especial importance at this time larger institutions are crowded beyond capacity. The reorganization contemplated in the pending legislation may be some distance away but his community will do well to keep its eyes open and see that nothing is "slipped over" on it which it may later have fervent cause to regret. POSTPONE ACTION ON LIGHT SYSTEM Ornamental lighting was discussed last night by Fullerton trustees and plans and estimates submitted for a one-light iron post system by Ben Dupuy, city engineer, who stated that by using $50 posts it would be possible to put in such a lighting system at a cost of less than $2 a front foot. Some of the trustees favored a lighting system of more than one light while others favored the single light. Mayor Coulter said that the people were getting back to the simple life and will not demand a cluster of lights which would diffuse no more light than a single lighting system. Others favored waiting a while as copper and brass and everything used in an ornamental lighting system is coming down. The matter was postponed two months.

REFERRED TO COMMITTEE The matter of a new fire siren for the Fullerton fire department, which has been discussed for some time, was referred back to the fire committee last night by Fullerton trustees with power to act. ment of City Marshal Jernigan. "I would like this council to pass an ordinance that would make it possible for the police department strictly to enforce the Volstead law," said Jernigan last night. "There are conditions existing in this city that should not be tolerated, and which the department cannot reach at this time. There are new forms of toxicants and if I am backed up with authority I believe I can remedy conditions that are now causing the department more or less trouble." The council did not hesitate in directing the attorneys to present an ordinance for the consideration of the board. UNIQUE DECISION RENDERED BY COX Marking what was declared to be the first ruling of its kind to be rendered by a justice court in Orange co. a decision has been handed down by Justice of the Peace Cox favoring the plaintiff in a suit for damages alleged due as the result of household furnishings being removed from a dwelling house, leased jointly by two tenants. The plaintiff in this case, Mrs. Elizabeth Conklin, of the Meyer-aptis Santa Ana, sued Mrs. Ora Snow, 416 French-st., for $150 damages because Mrs. Snow Dec. 17th during the absence of Mrs. Conklin, removed, it is alleged, all of the latter's household furnishings from the French-sit house and placed the goods in storage. Justice Cox rendered judgment in favor of Mrs. Conklin ordering that she be restored to possession of the premises from which her furniture was removed, that the household goods, now in storage, be returned and that Mrs. Conklin be paid $7 for the removal of these articles, rent in treble, amounting to $21 and costs of the suit, $16.35. It developed that Mrs. Snow only signed the lease, so there was a verbal agreement between the two that they would pay equal rent. Justice Cox held that in view of this oral understanding Mrs. Snow did not have the right to eject Mrs. Conklin's furniture. DIRECTIONS FOR CLASSIFYING A SOCIAL HOUND. Does he wear brogues and wool sox? Does he wear a sweater vest? Does he part his hair in the middle or on the side? Does he slick it down with brilliantine or some other axle grease? Does he say "No clippers, please," when he climbs into the barber chair? If he does all these things he may safely be admitted into the ranks of the social hound. Never Use Hot Water On Paint Is hot water good for the surface of the car? It is not, according to the American Motorist, which goes on to say: "Hot water has a marked deteriorating effect on the varnished surface of a well finished automobile body. Tepid water is ideal, although cool water may be used without harm. After the car has been properly washed and wiped with chamois, it is time well spent to go over it thoroughly with a high grade automobile polish. Use good grade cheese-cloth and be sure to rub until the last trace of wet polish has been removed, as a film of polish left on the surface of the car quickly collects a heavy coating of dust."

PROSPECT FOR OIL IN SOUTH DAKOTA Former So. Dak, folks, of whom there are several hundred in Anaheim, as well as oilmen, will be interested in the following account from a Helca, S. D. paper of oil prospects in that state: Recent developments in Montana have led to considerable conjecture as to the possibilities of the finding of oil in paying quantities in Western South Dakota. It is expected that numerous companies will begin prospecting in that section in the early spring as the result of announcements of geologists who have carefully examined the geological formations. All the geologists who have studied the situation agree on the general theory that the oil fields of Montana external from the northwest to the southeast corner of the state and therefore enter into South Dakota at its northwest corner and extend to the vicinity of Pierre. Many eminent geologists have visited the South Dakota territory within the past two years, and all agree that the general surface indications are as prominent here as either in the Montana or Wyoming fields. Fossils, shells, and all kinds of prehistoric formations are present, particularly within a radius of 30 miles of Dupré, indicating that this was at one time an era or a large bay of the ocean. Recent explorations indicate that such conditions as are necessary to form containers for oil exist. Until recently all geologists examining the South Dakota territory have agreed that oil would be found at from 2500 to 3500 feet, making rather expensive drilling, but the recent examinations north and south of Dupré show exposure of older formations, which indicate that oil may be found in this territory at from 1200 to 1600 feet (the Montana wells are from 1150 to 1500 feet). It is said stone, Keith's Magazine on Home Building, California Southland, The Garden Magazine and California Gardens. Biggest Shoe Value COME AN —A Price Smashing Event Extraordinary!

It is said that no less than 50 companies in Mitchell, Aberdeen, Sioux Falls, Pierre and Chamberlain, in South Dakota; Great Falls, Miles City, Baker and Lewiston, in Montana; Denver and Pueblo, in Colorado; Newcastle and Casper, in Wyoming; as well as Minneapolis, Chicago and other western points have been securing oil leases in western South Dakota during the past three months, and many of them will drill on their holdings as soon as the weather will permit. SANTA ANA COUNCIL. AFTER HOME BREW Santa Ana home brewers will have to exercise the utmost secrecy, particularly those who work their stills overtime and dispense the products to friends, if it is found that authority can be delegated the police department by ordinance to enforce the provisions of the Volstead act. City Atty. G. H. Scott and Special Counsel Clyde Bishop today were under instructions from the city council to draft such an ordinance, if investigations disclose that the matter can be handled thus. City Marshal Jernigan, at the regular meeting of the trustees, requested the enactment of such an ordinance. It is understood that other cities in the state have taken such action. The ordinance also will be designed, if possible, to regulate the sale of concoctions carrying high percentages of alcohol. There are any number of extracts and patent medicine that carry a "kick" that is said to be more or less satisfying to those who have been in the habit of drinking liquor, according to the state- MEN'S SHOES FOR LESS —Men's black and brown.
