Dr Brastad opened this discussion with a few remarks stating that in his opinion this drive should not be put on nor supported by the C.of C., as such; that, after reading the articles appearing in daily newspapers from day to day he could not but believe that it was nothing more nor less than a tremendous advertising campaign being put over by a commercial clinic operating in our city. Dr Brastad stated that he was in favor of helping crippled children in every possible manner but objected to this flagrant advertising campain put on for personal gain. Dr Beebe spoke at length on the ethics of medical profession, saying that it has always been obnoxious to any true physician and surgeon get business in any other way than by doing good work and intimated that it was not first time that the Chamber of Commerce had been imposed upon by this same institution. Dr Cole advised the committee to investigate thoroughly before going ahead with this drive, saying that the doctors working for salaries in similar institutions in east were not always competent; that merely advertising a man as a highly trained specialist did not prove him to be such. Dr Utter nailed tribute to the Orange County Hospital, reminding the committees that we had such a hospital, one of the best in Southern California, and equipped with all the latest instruments and appliances for the relief of suffering humanity, where the poor people of Orange County are getting as good care as is any where obtainable and where all doctors and specialists are welcome to treat any unfortunate, crippled or deformed patient requiring specialized attention, and have support and assistance of our most capable county physician; and he further stated that if the Society for the Relief of Crippled Children is purely philanthropic society that it prefers to be it will avail itself of the advantages of this splendid public institution. Dr Utter further stated that he is absolutely opposed to commercializing practice of medicine by advertising, but that he had to compete with advertising doctors in Anaheim for the last ten years and that all he asked fromthe U.

SHOOTING AFFRAYS LOS ANGELES, July 25.—Three men were under the care of surgeons early today as the result of shooting affrays that occurred in and near the city. Horace Whiteman, 63, of 415 No. Belmont-ave, was taken to the receiving hospital suffering from a bullet wound in the right leg. A report filled at the sherrif's office stated that Whiteman was accidently struck by a stray bullet while talking with friends at 77th street and Compton-ave. Augustine Platino, an Austrian, was reported to be in a critical condition at the county hospital from a bullet wound in the abdomen and stab wounds in the back. A fight that occurred at Watts shortly after midnight resulted in the wounding of Platino, according to a report made at the sherriff's office. Manuel Hegrede, Septimo Varelo and Y. Nagrete were taken into custody and held at the Watts jail pending investigation. In endeavoring to halt a neighborhood quarrel Deputy Sheriff Robert Jones shot and wounded Morris Olins near the latter's home. KILLS STEPFATHER, CALLED IN DEFENSE LOS ANGELES, July 25.—Still weak from her collapse, Mrs. Lulu McBride, on trial as the slayer of her stepfather, Charles E. Everets, after three days in the jail hospital appeared in Judge Willis' court today to tell the story of the slaying and the alleged lovemaking of her stepfather. It wasn't a case of hitless wonders yesterday, as four twirlers were offered to the locals. As usual, the Anaheim steam-roller was a little slow getting started, the county-deatites counting one in their first and another in the second frame before the locals got their range-finders to working. To make it interesting the Callanites tied the score in the third. They started to work over Mister Coy, the So. Orange-co. chuckler in earnest in the fifth innings when after pushing the score to 3 to 2 in the fourth, they pounded out four bingles in a row, followed by a walk, sacrifice, hit by pitcher, good for six tallies. In the next innings, they did even worse, scoring seven times on five more hits and in the ninth managed to scrape up four more scores on five hits. In the eighth, the Santa Anans caught the infection and pooled out five bingles themselves, good for six tallies, off Salveson who had by that time pitched two ball games because of the countless fouls the Santa Anans tipped off. A feature of the game was the absence of infield plays. Pendleton got the only assist of the game and Ramage at first never saw the ball. The diamond was hard as pavement and the ball shot over it like a billiard table. But most of the putouts were by files. Youngman and Hawkins each getting a quartet. Bush was also under several while Cap Bus pulled a number of fouls down. Next Sunday, Anaheim starts on the second round of this division when Long Beach is met on the Fullerton field. Anaheim is the only team that has defeated Long Beach to date so a cordial invitation is extended everyone as it is anticipated a royal good time will be enjoyed by all present.

KILLS STEPFATHER, CALLED IN DEFENSE LOS ANGELES, July 25.—Still weak from her collapse, Mrs. Lulu McBride, on trial as the slayer of her stepfather, Charles E. Everets, after three days in the jail hospital appeared in Judge Willis' court today to tell the story of the slaying and the alleged lovemaking of her stepfather. On the story that the accused woman was expected to tell today is said to be based the hopes of the defense for an acquittal of the charge of murder. She claims that she fired the shot up self-defense when her stepfather sought to make violent love to her. Mrs. McBride was about to go on the witness stand several days ago when she suffered a nervous breakdown.
