FINEST PARK IN SO. CALIF. PLANNED Council Accepts Architect's Preliminary Plans Last Evening City council at an informal meeting decided to fix the city tax levy at $1.45, the same as last year. Because of the big increase in assessment on account of the great amount of building, this rate will bring in about $20,000 more than last year. A good part of this will go toward interest and retirement of $100,000 park bonds voted a year ago and $150,000 voted this spring for city hall and other civic improvements. Meeting with the council last evening were the landscape architects who are preparing plans for the 20-acre park. Council approved general layout of park features as shown on map drawn 100 feet to the inch. The architects were directed to proceed with a map drawn 40 feet to the inch which will display the various park features in detail. Y. M. C. A. Field Secy. Falls Down Air Shaft LOS ANGELES, Aug. 30.—J. H. Hood, 938 W. 18th st., former Y. M. C. A. field secretary and evangelist today fell from the roof of the California-bldg at Second and Broadway thru an air shaft to the bottom of the shaft, nine stories below, and was instantly killed. Police believe Hood threw himself from the roof with suicidal intent, as they found a note on his body indicating that he had been despondent. MYSTERIOUS BLAZE THREATENS PIER LOS ANGELES, Aug. 30.—A fire of mysterious origin that broke out in the rear of the Bagdad cafe threatened the half-million dollar Sunset pier at Venice with complete destruction early this morning. A furious battle by firemen confined the flames largely to the cafe, which was damaged to the extent of $20,000. The big amusement pier, not yet completed, but already representing an estimated investment of $500,000 appeared to be doomed. Flames shot high into the air and dense columns of smoke rolled out over the sea. The cafe in which the fire started was reported to be involved in some legal action and a deputy sheriff was seated in the place when the fire broke out. While there were no indications that the legal tangle over the property had any connection with the fire, the authorities started a thorough investigation to determine whether CITY SHIFT BIG GROW IN 8 M Building Permit Compared With Same Time Anaheim builds continue to show dous increase over the total for eight this year being compared with the corresponding 1920.

Meeting with the council last evening were the landscape architects who are preparing plans for the 20-acre park. Council approved general layout of park features as shown on map drawn 100 feet to the inch. The architects were directed to proceed with a map drawn 40 feet to the inch which will display the various park features in detail. The architects stated that the park design and features determined upon by the councilmen will give Anaheim the most practical park in So Calif. The only park that can approach it is the very popular Brookside park at Passdena. Council from the first has determined that the 20 acres shall be used to the ultimate advantage of everyone and every feature decided upon will be with the end in view of affording the greatest service possible to the people of Anaheim, particularly the children. This extensive program is going to cost a lot of money. The architects say that if it is completed, as outlined within five years, the council will be going away. The plan is to take up first one section and then another, as funds are available. One of the biggest features will be the swimming pool and bath house. The council wants to build a small wading pool for children and an honest-to-goodness plunge for everybody else. The latter will probably be something like 60x150 feet, which would make it considerably larger than the plunge at Huntington Beach. The park is also to have a series of small, ornamental ponds.

CRITIC LISTENS TO FULLERTON MENTOR With the football season looming up, Fullerton seems to be coming in for her usual pre-season glory. An Examiner critic quotes Coach Smith as declaring that he has another team of championship calibre in the making, and the critic takes it as a foregone conclusion Fullerton will have the leading eleven of this county. Huntington Beach is said to be building a team that will give the neighboring town the hardest battle it has had for years, while Santa Ana is also considered a serious contender. However, the battery of critics on all things pertaining to the gridleon in this section has overlooked Anaheim, and as a consequence the local aggregation is not even considered a dark-horse, it seems. Thereby hangs a tale. Anaheim will probably have the greatest aggregation of speed and beef in the field in the county this year, and it may be, after all, that the 1921 season will be a historic period in local high school football activities. Examiner critics to the contrary notwithstanding. CITIZENS ASSIST IN NEGRO HUNT LO SANGLELES, Aug. 30—Heavily armed citizens from Barstow and vicinity, reinformed by a number of deputy sheriffs from San Bernardino, were scouring the desert east of Barstow today in the search of three armed negroes, who shot and killed Thomas C.
