GREAT N. Y. STAGE SUCCESS HERE, SAT. One of the greatest of New York's recent stage successes, "A Successful Calamity," will be presented at the Fairyland theater, Anaheim, Saturday evening, November 19, by the Madison Square Producing Co. This splendid aggregation of players is one of three special metropolitan companies being sent out to the Pacific Coast to produce a number of the latest eastern successes. The high cost of railroad transportation in the last few years has made the bringing of New York companies and plays to the Pacific Coast almost prohibitive. In order to overcome this situation the Madison Square Producing Co., has organized three companies of well known Broadway favorites for a special tour of the West Coast cities. Instead of following the customary plan of sending out a separate company with each play, each of these three companies will be equipped for the presentation of several plays. "A Successful Calamity," which is the initial play to be presented has only recently closed a phenomenal run of two seasons at the Booth Theater in New York, where it served as a vehicle for William Gillette. During the western tour this role will be taken by Boyd Irwin, who won his stage spurs in support of such stars as Ellen Terry, Margaret Anglin and Nance O'Nell. Ruth King who has the feminine lead is equally as well known both for her stage experience and her screen roles. Other members of this metropolitan cast include such well-known players as Alma Francis, Ethan Allen, Lorenz Gillette, Ross Forfester, Phyllis Connard, Rafael Brunnette, Ainnee Torrlank, Fred Hawthorne and Charles Gregg. "A Successful Calamity" is from the pen of Clare Kummer, author of "Goodness Gracious Amibielle," and other Broadway successes. The play during its extended eastern run just closed was accorded the unqualified praise of the foremost eastern critics, who unanimously declared this sparkling, whimsical comedy to be representative of America's best. Typically American in its theme and manner of presentation, the comedy is seintillant with humor and bright sparkling dialogue. Letters From People The Plain Dealer: Orange county is attaining increasing prominence for its interest and achievements in music. We are, for instance, the present holders of the fine cup awarded by the California Federation of Music Clubs for having the greatest number of affiliated organizations of any county in the state. In keeping with the nation-wide movement for better music and particularly the fostering of American music, our communities, schools, churches and clubs are manifesting a progressive interest in music not only as a form of entertainment but as an art and educational subject reflecting a cultural and beneficient influence upon private and social life. The press has been generously active in promoting better music through the publication of articles on the subject besides notices and reports of musical affairs. As the largest musical organization of the county we wish to extend to you our thanks and invite your continued co-operation. On Thursday evening, Dec. 1, we are calling a meeting of all music teachers of the county for the purpose of perfecting the organization of an Orange County Music Teachers' Association. A banquet will be served at 6:30 o'clock at James' Gold Room 216 West Fourth St., Santa Ana, to which all members of the profession are urgently invited. A few reservations can be made for music lovers and patrons, also students who might be interested in Associate or Student membership. Requests for reservations should reach Miss Lena Shepard, care of Santa Ana High School, not later than Thursday noon. Banquet, one dollar per plate. Visiting speakers and fine musical program will feature the evening. We shall greatly appreciate your giving this matter conspicuous mention in your columns, at the same time indicating the necessity and advantages of organized effort on the part of the musical profession to accomplish for community and civic welfare the practical possibilities of Good Music. Very truly yours, CLARENCE GUSTLIN, Pres. Santa Ana Musical Ass., County Director, Calif. Fed.

Typically American in its theme and manner of presentation, the comedy is scintillant with humor and bright sparkling dialogue. The plot centers around a socially tired New York millionaire who attempts to secure a quiet evening at home with his family. In order to accomplish this he evolves a scheme, which leads him into a maze of happenings that are decidedly outside of his reckonings and nearly precipitate tragic consequences. Written only to amuse, the play has yet a well-founded and probable plot that baffles and maintains an intriguing suspense, which cleverly offers a balancing contrast to the absurdly amusing situations that fairly tumble over each other. "A Successful Calamity" will be presented in Anaheim for the one performance only, at Fairyland Theater, Saturday evening, Nov. 19. Placentia News PLACENTIA, Nov. 17. — (Spl.) The Christian Endeavor of the Presbyterian church served sandwiches and coffee to the members and their guests on Sunday evening just before the meeting. The speaker of the evening was Rev. Stanley H. Bailer of Santa Ana and his talk was very interesting. Monday evening a business meeting of the Christian Endeavor society was preceded by a pot luck supper in the church parlor. Mr. Andrew Ipsen and family and Mr. and Mrs. Ross Warner motored to Riverside on Friday, Armistice Day. On their arrival the Hupmobile had acquired a peculiar knock in the rear end and upon investigation at a garage it was found to be serious and resulted in the car being left in River-side for repairs. The burning of the old Randolph packing house last Friday evening, drew a larger crowd than any show could. The place was fully insured. George Key, Stanley and Harry Ipsen spent Friday at Glen Ivy. Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Edwardson entertained at 500 on Saturday in their lovely home. Chrysanthemums and roses decorated the spacious rooms. Mrs. John Lemke and John Heteebrink carried off first honors; Mrs. Lewis Lemke and Archie Hawkins, second. The consolation going to Miss Evelyn Lemke and Lewis Lemke. A delicious supper was served by the hostess, assisted by Mrs. Dave Lemke, at the close of the game. Those enjoying the courtesy were Mrs. John Lemke, Mr. and Mrs. John Heteebrink, Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Lemke, Mr. and Mrs. Dave Lemke, Mrs. Homer Pyron Miss Evelyn Lemke, Mr. Arch Hawkins, Albert Dorothy and Hyacinth Heteebrink and Johanna Lemke. Mr., and Mrs. Jake Edwardson and daughter were dinner guests of Mr. CLARENCE GUSTLIN, Pres. Santa Ana Musical Ass., County Director, Calif. Fed. Music Clubs; Publicity Chairman Orange-Co. Music Teachers' Association. PLEDGE 1000 CARS FOR OCEAN SHIPPING The first step to bring into actual being the growers' controlled water shipping plan was taken at Orange when approximately forty directors representing ten citrus houses affiliated with the Orange-co Fruit Exchanges tentatively pledged to ship 1000 cars of fruit each year for three years by the proposed water route. The guarantee is not mandatory and was furnished principally for the purpose of giving the company a line on how the various districts will line up on the proposition. A bona fide pledge is expected to be made later. The tentative pledge is based on conservative crop figures of the year just passed and was furnished merely to give a working basis to the plan. It was the belief of the various directors that in case they were called to do so they could easily increase their pledge. As it now stands it is estimated that the 1000 cars will represent about the increase that is expected next year at these various plants. The new shipping line, which will be financed by the growers themselves, will be capitalized at five million dollars, two million of this amount to be raised immediately in order to put the plan in operation. It is expected to save growers thousands of dollars annually in cheaper freight rates. By this plan it will cost the grower 78 cents per box to ship fruit from the packing plant to New York, as against $1.75 now charged by the railroads. It is said, however, that a majority of the directors and packing plant officials favor assessing each grower on a box basis. This plan, it is said, appears the most feasible and the one most likely to be adopted by a great number of the houses, though it is optional with the plants as to which plan they follow.

Los Angeles St. THE ORANGE COUNTY PLAIN DEALER, ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA SPEND 3 MONTHS FIGHTING WATER Montebello The Arcadia Oil Co.'s Montebello well presents a problem in cementing that has remained unsolved for three months. Drilled to 2975 repeated attempts to shut off water at 2828 have failed. Examination of the water shows that it carries considerable alkali salts. These salts prevent the cement from setting. The premature explosion of a shot intended to be fired at 3000 feet went off at 1200 feet and parted three strings of casing, the eight, ten and 12-inch, for the Keeler Oil Co. at No. 1. No. 2 stands plugged back and cemented at 3865. Flowing consistently at better than 400 barrels Prugh No. 9 is one of the best wells the Montebello field has produced for some time. Drilled to 3456 Prugh No. 9 is flowing under heavy pressure and makes 25 gravity oil. Work was resumed on Germain 1-B at 3640. A deep test well ins contemplated. On the Mulholland property a rig for No. 4 is going up. Eggleston No. 1 the latest wonder at Montebello gave the sign for much new work. The St. Helens is drilling three offset wells. Monterey No. 4 a former producer at 2434 is deepening and is drilling by eight-inch at 2525. Monteey No. 6 is 2000 feet in the hard sand. Monterey No. 7 just spudded in and is drilling at 500. The big Eggleston well is still doing 1200 barrels net clean oil. The Standard Oil Co. is starting Howard and Smith No. 1 off with a 21-inch hole. The idea being to start with a big hole and carry it as far as possible in order to get a good deep test well idown. On the Baldwin the S. Co. has No. 59 drilling at 1500, a grade made for No. 60 and No. 61. On the La Merced the Union completed No. 10 at 3063 and is putting the new well on production. It will probably make 200 bbls. No. 9 is 3063 in the hard sand. No. 18 is cleaning out at 2869, No. 21 is in the hard sand at 3050. No. 23 is in the oil sand at 2600 and should be the Union's next producer. PREPARE TO MOVE TOWN FOUR MILES AMERICAN FALLS, Idaho, Nov. 16—American Falls, a town of 1500 is going to be moved four miles. The moving is going to be a bag and baggage affair — nothing half way about it. And furthermore, Uncle Sam is going to pay the bill. The why and wherefore is that Uncle Sam is going to build a big dam across the Snake river at the exact spot where American Falls is now located. The dam will form one of the biggest reservoirs in the world. And such being the case, Uncle Sam can't be bothered about a mere town of 1500. Far from being annoyed with Uncle Sam's high-handed methods, the people of American Falls are looking forward to moving day—which, by the way, is still a year or two distant—with a great deal of relish. Some friction is expected when the actual moving comes as already enterprising merchants have their eyes on choice locations. But they all expect the new town to be better than the old, and they expect that the combination of the dam and the several hundred thousand acres which it will irrigate will mean a big boom.

OPEN OIL FIELD AT SANTA FE SPRINGS Santa Fe Springs The week opened at Santa Fe Springs with the announcement that the Amalgamated Oil Co. had a well on the Butterworth. Investigation proved that on drilling out the cement at 4670 and going on 12 feet the Amalgamated's Butterworth at from 300 to 400 barrels. On worth started flowing 34 gravity the strength of the Butterworth's action the Amalgamated has located Butterworth No. 2 and No. 3. Immediately after the Bell strike the Amalgamated secured 40 acres from the Pacific Electric Co.' and the Delugge property. On property adjoining the Union's Bell on the north side the Chansler-Canfield Midway is building rig and will start drilling as soon as the rigging up work is completed. The General Petroleum has some 50 acres in community holdings at Santa Fe Springs and is under obligation to commence drilling soon. The Fullerton Oil Co. has some scattered holdings at Santa Fe Springs on which development work will have to be done in near future. The Nevada-Ventura Oil Co. backed largely by Long Beach capital, spudded in last week at Santa Fe Springs and has close to 1000 feet of hole drilled. On the Bell Community holding the Petroleum Midway is building a rig and will start immediate development work. The Petroleum Midway holds ten different properties in and around Santa Fe Springs.

Their use results in delay and mutilation of mails. The minimum size advocated by the postoffice department is 2½ x4 inches. On smaller sizes, the department states, addresses are obliterated by cancellation marks, the letters are too small to run thru the facing tables and so must be handled three times extra. Additional delay is caused by the necessity of sorting the small letters by hand, and the small sizes are subject to loss as they cannot be tied firmly in letter packages. CONDEMNED TO DIE, ORDERS LOBSTER CAEN, France, Nov. 17. — Men condemned to death, it has become a custom in France, may eat or drink what they like for their last meal. Most of them ask for rum and a cigaret. "Can't I get you something instead," asked one of the guards, "a sardine or some other kind of fish?" "American lobster, or nothing," demanded the man about to die. "I have always ordered American lobster, but I have never been able to eat it without suffering from indigestion for hours afterward." Finance itself beyond a doubt in that the saving over railroad shipments would exceed the assessment of the individual grower and also leave him money to the good.

Meyer No. 4 and 5 are located on either side of Meyer No. 3 a well that has produced 36 gravity oil for more than two years, the oil coming from a sand struck at 4595. BANDINI IS READY FOR SHUTOFF TEST Whittier The recent strike at Santa Fe Springs makes the Bandini Petroleum Co.'s No. 1 look a little better and special effort is being made to get the water shut off so that drilling can go ahead. The last cementing was done at 3602 and it is believed the Bandini Petroleum Co. will get a well as soon as the water problem has been solved. The So. Calif. Oil Co.'s Sanderson No. 1 drilling at 2545 is showing an appreciable quantity of gas. The Whitley Oil Co.'s No. 6 is now drilling in the brown shale at 3045 feet and is beginning to show some colors.
