MORE MARKS FOR RUTH Babe Ruth is a big guy, but he has never hit four homers in one game. Bobby Lowe, Perry Werden and Ed Delehanty all have. And Bambino with al lhis terrific slugging has never bounced out enough hits to total 407 bases for a season. Tip O'Neill back in 1887 accomplished this feat. George Sisler of the Brown's came the nearest to O'Neill's mark in 1920 when he hit for a total of 399 bases. There is no rest for a super. He no sooner cracks one record than all the high spots of history are trotted out for him to blaze away at. And he's expected to hurdle them or fall a shadow short of greatness. British interests have found that large crops of cotton of good quality can be raised in the New Hebrides islands. ALCOHOL CARBURETOR A Scotch company has experimented with alcohol as a motor fuel with the result that an alcohol carburetor has been introduced. This carburetor, called a D. C. L., has a float chamber of ordnary type. But the regular jet is replaced with an opening controlled by a needle valve. The interesting part of this carburetor is that hot air must be introduced into the mixing chamber. For this purpose the chamber is enclosed in an asbestos lining to conserve the heat. As the engine speeds up, cooler air may be sent through. When the engine is cold, the carburetor must be heated before the fuel will vaporize. This is done by a coil of electric wire around the fuel well. In a comparison test of the D. C. L. carburetor with alcohol and an ordinary one with gasoline, the inventors say, the D. C. L. proved itself more economical. A car that went 25 miles on a gallon of gasoline was driven 35 miles on a gallon of alcohol fed thru the D. C. L. carburetor. The use of alcohol as a motor fuel, say experts, may even go so far as to exceed its consumption in liquid form before the days of the drought. And it is expected to be cheaper than gasoline, too. THREE DIVORCES GRANTED Three final divorce decrees were granted by the superior court yesterday. The wife was the plaintiff in each case. Hazel Erickson was given a divorce from Mandle Erickson and he secured the custody of two minor children. Ina T. Page was given a divorce from Charles Page, and Mina S. Ferdinand was granted a decree against Joseph Ferdinand. The divorce trial of Mrs. Ed Thwing against the former city marshal of Fullerton was set for Oct. 14 at 1 p.m. FIRST FORMAL PRUNE PRICES SAN JOSE, Aug. 20—The first formal prices quoted to the trade by the California Prune and Apricot Growers, Inc., for 1921 crop prunes have just been sent East to the association's brokers by H.

As a headliner the bout was a failure, and reversing the order of customary procedure in fistiana, one Johnny Adams, of San Berdoo, provided the sensation of the evening by knocking out Kid Loule in the second round of the curtain raiser. The little fellow had it on the local boy all of the way, and the bout undoubtedly was the star attraction of the evening. Billy Conley and Ben Smith fought a draw in the semi-windup. Conley was over-anxious to make a good showing, and in doing so missed three hard leads to Smith that threw him off balance. The result was that the fans accused the hard hitting Anaheim boy of butting. Conley is without doubt the best welter in this locality and if the promoter of the club will find a man that will stand up and fight him the fans will be satisfied. The proteges of Joe Rivers had hard sailing, Young Dudley knocking out Charles Dundee in the first round, Kid Rubio winning all the way from Eddie Miller. A packed house witnessed the show. Jimmy Lloyd and Tex Stovel, brother Filk, will box a special ACCUSE ERRAND BOY OF KILLING GIRLS LONDON, Aug. 20.—Harold Jones, 15-year old errand boy, is either an archfriend or the persecuted victim of a secret society. British crime experts are trying with little result to determine which. Seventeen days after the boy was acquitted of attacking and murdering 8-year-old Freda Burnell, he was locked up in connection with the murder of 11-year-old Florence Little. The body of the Little girl was found concealed in the attic of the Jones home, in the little Welsh village of Abertillery. Freda's body was found in a lonely lane six months ago. She had been sent to the store in which the Jones boy worked as errand boy. Police charged her killed her in a shed back of the store, and carried her body to the lane. All thru the trial, the boy denied his guilt with the utmost calm, and watched proceedings with apparent unconcern. Shortly after he had been acquitted the Little girl was playing on the street with Florrie Jones, Harold's smaller sister. Her father was watching the play. He stepped into the house for tobacco and when he returned, found that his daughter had disappeared. A search was organized, both Harold Jones and his father Joining it. The boy suggested that bloodhounds be used in the hunt. After a night of searching, police decided to search every house in Abertillery. In the attic of the Jones home the body of the Little girl was found, with a gash in the throat and the head cut as with a blunt instrument. Threats of violence were made against Harold, and police rushed him to jail in another part of the county. One angle of the case that puzzles entrants is this: by the Standard Oil Co., an offset to the National Exploration Co. well on Newland-Borchard lease. The Walker Western Oil Co. will drill well No. 1 on block 2103 East Side Villa tracts, northeast corral Utica and Huntington. This company will be one of five winners among the many stock companies, as Mr. Walker has been successful as an operator in California fields. The well drilled by the Fidee Oil Corp., at the northeast corner Quincy and Huntington, will play on the beam at 3:45 Thursday at ernoon and 30 minutes later oil can flow into the sump. The content was rather heavy than had been expected to start with something like the Huntington Crinal No. 1, and the Pantages, will probably be of a considerable higher gravity as soon as the father is cleaned out, which will prob require two or three days, and is similarly longer. The oil was free from water from the start, but car wash with it something like 20 per cent. When going to press the flow not exceeded 600 barrels. The principal owner in this lot is L. A. Stevenson of Villa Park, was assistant cashier of the First National bank of Huntington Be during the war period. Mr. Stevenson accepted 30 lots from C. H. Hard, as part payment on an orange grove in the Covina district. Lots at that time were of little value and it looked as tho Mr. Stevens had been "stung." A fluid has been invented swelling dried out vehicle w spokes and preventing them rattle the fans accused the hard hitting Anaheim boy of butting. Conley is without doubt the best welter in this locality and if the promoter of the club will find a man that will stand up and fight him the fans will be satisfied. The proteges of Joe Rivers had hard sailing, Young Dudley knocking out Charles Dundee in the first round, Kid Rublo winning all the way from Eddie Miller. A packed house witnessed the show. Jimmy Lloyd and Tex Stovel, brother Elks, will box a special event, and a genuine "slugfest" is promised the fans. Although arrangements for next week's card are not complete, it is likely that Billy Conley will meet Steve Dalton in the main event. Young Dudley and Solly Trujilla have been matched. Dudley will not box at Delhi in order that he may be in condition to show here. WILLETTS PLEASED WITH NEW SHERIDAN "De-e-e-lighted! Yes, I am certainly pleased with my new Sheridan." This is the manner in which J. Willetts, of Willetts Bros., automobile painters of Anaheim, expressed his satisfaction with the new Sheridan touring car which he recently purchased from the Quality Motor, Co., Fullerton, local dealers. In summing up the Sheridan's many excellent points, Mr. Willetts stated that he was completely sold on the wonderful motor. To be exact, he said that in his opinion few sixes could duplicate its smooth quietness and lack of vibration while its pick-up and power range was a reveaition as to what can be obtained in a four-cylinder motor. Of course Mr. Willetts had to say a few critical words about the paint and finish—that was to be expected, for that's his business. But he eliminated the sting from his remarks by adding that few cars, even the higher priced ones, could boast of workmanship that would excell that displayed in the construction of the Sheridan. 50s, 8c bulk basis; 50-60s, 6 1-2c bulk basis; 60-70c, 6c bulk basis; 70-80s, 80-90s and 90-100s, 5 1-2c bulk basis. Prices for Growers Grand prunes are 1-4c less per pound on all sizes than Sunsweet quotations. Among the devices for cleaning automobile wind shields in rainy weather is one equipped with pads saturated with a chemical solution which, when rubbed on the glass, prevents moisture accumulating.
