Center St. The Orange County Plain Dealer Village Gossip Gavvy Cravath, who has taken up boating with the same enthusiasm that made him a star in big league baseball for several seasons and whose home run record stood until Babe Ruth came along with his big stick and shattered it, today voiced a complaint to The Plain Dealer against Orange county's harbor and in doing so he only repeated what hundreds of others who have boats on the bay have said. Gavvy is not afraid of deep water and he knows his boat will stand considerable tossing about, but when it comes to putting in at Balboa thru the inlet to the bay at night Gavvy says he always gets a case of cold feet. Cravath wants something done toward getting a strong light on the end of the jetty to aid boatmen in snaking the harbor. The lack of proper light on the jetty makes entering the harbor at night a dangerous proposition, Cravath says. Leonard Hensel may be a hobo but he isn't one of the lazy variety, and he isn't a thief. Two Santa Ana police officers, Jack Combs and Boyd Ellis, discovered this, they reported today, when they visited a shack which the industrious Hensel had erected in the Santa Ana river bed, near West Fifth street. According to a West Fifth-street resident, Hensel had a good looking Dayton bicycle, which induced the suspicion that he had stolen it. The two policemen were much impressed with Hensel's home surroundings when they reached the scene. After he had showed them a receipt, proving that he had purchased the bicycle in San Diego he ushered them through his shack, which was more or less of a revelation in coziness and comfort. "We decided that we would rent the shack ourselves next summer," the officers reported later at headquarters. "We told the hobo he could stay there until we got ready to take possession." SANTA ANA COMPANY INCREASES CAPITAL Authorization of an increase of capital stock of the piston Ring and Valve Products Co., of Santa Ana, from $50,000 to $100,000 and the addition of two directors were contained in a certificate received by County Clerk J. M. Backs from the secretary of state and on file today. BOY MAKES CHARGES LOS ANGELES, Feb. 2.—Allegations that four prohibition agents handcuffed and strung up in a room James Flore, an Italian veteran of the world war, were brought by Barlo Ferraro, a nine-year old boy, before District Attorney Thomas Lee Woolwine and Mark Herron, Chief Deputy U. S. attorney. The agents are C. H. Wheeler, J. A. Doyle, James Pierce and Clarence Parker. They are charged further with breaking Flore's ribs in a beating up they gave him. They are alleged to have entered Flore's place without a search warrant. Wheeler denied the charge as absurd, and said the Italian had been drunk. WOMAN ESCAPES INTRUDER SANTA BARBARA, Feb. 2.—Mrs. Constance Delaney Ealand, wealthy woman here, escaped from an intruder, whom she believes was Stephen Ruiz, employed as gardener for several days, when she broke a window and jumped out of the house to the ground ten feet below. Her screams brought neighbors and the police. A Pico, with whom Ruiz had gone out that night, according to Mrs. Ruiz, is said to have confessed to planning to rob the house with Ruiz. SAN QUENTIN CROWDED LOS ANGELES, Feb. 2—San Quentin prison contains 100 more prisoners than its normal capacity permits, and a temporary dormitory has had to be erected. Sixty per cent of the inmates are under 30 and 40 percent of these are under 25, according to Ed. H. Whyte, State parole officer and agent for California. $100,000 SCHOLARSHIP FUND (B continued from page One) Wm. G. Paul, assistant to the general manager of the supply company, was in charge of the pictures. The various minutes, on motion of S. C. Hartranft, were adopted. Manager Schureman was given a vote of thanks for his efficiency and fidelity. Schureman, in the course of his annual report, said that the association had packed oranges every month during the three years or more of his incumbency except the first month. Most of this report has already been published in the Plain Dealer. He pointed out the fact that the growers who had listened to the persuasion of independent buyers of Valencias in March of last year had sold their fruit at much lower prices than the association somewhat later obtained. He said the wind damages during the big December blow was the worst from wind in his experience of 30 years in Southern California. Oranges dropped in considerable numbers, Washington navels suffering most. The problem of decay would be more difficult because of the wind storm and succeeding rain storms, than last year. He again asked growers to give their personal supervision of the work of fumigation, etc., while it was in progress. Upon growers themselves, he said, he would have to rely for a satisfactory exhibit of the Valencia orange show. In explanation of the housing problem, Schureman said that the most immediate need was a piece of land on which tents for employees could be pitched. S. C. Hartranft made the motion for the appointment of a committee of six on housing after there had been much discussion pro an con and various motions, none of which materialized. The names of the committee will be announced later. Discussion of the recommendation on pools was varied dealing PRINCIPALS MEETING TONIGHT A number from Fullerton will attend the Orange-co Grammar School Principals Asa's meeting at Tustin tonight. There is scheduled a 6:30 dinner, to be followed by a business meeting. It is probable that the present plan of the teachers institutes will be debated.

FIREMEN HAVE BIG TIME Fullerton trustees, city clerk and the city attorney were guests of Fullerton firemen at a barbecue at the city water plant last evening. All the trustees were present with the exception of R. A. Marsden who was detained. All the firemen were present with the exception of two. The committee in charge was composed of William Gillette, Dorsey Ellis and Burle Goodrich. The steaks were bargenced by Ed Vall, of Anaheim, and salad and coffee was supplied by Mrs. Gillett. Short talks were made by members of the board of trustees. The banquet was declared to have been unexcelled. HELD ON ASSAULT CHARGE I. G. Holt, arrested by Fullerton police following an alleged attempted hold-up of a party of men in their tent near the city reservoir, discharging, it is said, a gun in their faces, was arraigned before Judge French yesterday on the charge of assault with a deadly weapon. He was held for trial on a ball of $1,000, and was taken to the county jail at Santa Ana in default of bond. Attorney Lyons of the office of Allen and Lyons of Fullerton is his counsel.

RIDGE ROUTE IS CLOSED LOS ANGELES, Feb. 2.—The Ridge route is closed at Saugus, with motorcycle officers guarding it against motorists, because of the heavy snow. Similar closing of roads in Kern co., below the Grapevine district, it is believed, will be taken. FLINT MANAGER FOR JOHNSON LOS ANGELES, Feb. 2.—State Senator Frank P. Flint announces his appointment as general chairman in southern California of the campaign committee of U. S. Sen. Hiram Johnson. ORDERS NEW DINING CARDS The Pennsylvania railroad will in the near future place orders for the construction of 20 additional all-steel dining cars of the largest size. NEW HOPE ALIKE FOR PAT AND LEAN LONDON, Feb. 2.—Much excitement has been around over the news from Schlechegreienben, Germany, that Prussian farmers have devised a way of extracting fat from live pigs, so as to have the pig and eat it too. Papers printed photographs showing pigs "before and after." When the pig had been properly fattened, it was said, it was taken to a veterinarian who administered a local anesthetic removed a section of fat, sewed up the porker, tied on a large bandage and sent it home for more fattening. Interviews with prominent English raisers of pigs revealed that this method had not yet been tried in England and probably would not be, because of its roughness on the pig. Considerable speculation was aroused, however, some persons thinking that the operation might be a useful adjunct to the monkey-gland operation. Bay windows, it was pointed out could be removed, thus completing the renovation. Beauty specialists were also asked their advice as to whether such an idea might be used to help the fashions in women's shapes, introducing real fat instead In explanation of the housing problem, Schureman said that the most immediate need was a piece of land on which tents for employees could be pitched. S. C. Hartranft made the motion for the appointment of a committee of six on housing after there had been much discussion pro an con and various motions, none of which materialized. The names of the committee will be announced later. Discussion of the recommendation on pools was varied, dealing with the number of pools, the percentages for each and the modifications which should be made in individual cases, in which, for instance picking of more than the fixed percentage might be necessary because of tree diseases. Some speakers favored two pools, others four, many different percentage arrangements were advocated. The total acreage of the association will be zoned, and trees in each grove will be selected for picking for each pool in a rotation as equitable as possible. R. C. Hein's motion to this effect was carried. In the matter of the levy of 10 cents per hundred weight, Schureman had stated in his report that funds were imperatively needed with which to purchase supplies of lumber, nails etc. Schureman had stated further that of the increase in the caumpital stock previously decided upon, of from $50,000 to $200,000; only $47,000; of the increased $150,000 had been paid in. Schureman said later that approximately only $50,000 had been subscribed for. The 10 cents levy, therefore, will serve the double purpose of providing needed funds for current operation and obtaining payment for new stock no wbeng issued as rapidly as practicable. Eygabroad's motion, to have the assessment made, was carried, after he had explained that stockholders who already had paid for new stock taken up to 60 shares per acre, were exempt. Addresses by S. C. Hartranft, a director, on the work of the California Fruit Growers Exchange and the benefits which members of associations affiliated with it derived, and by Manager Dale R. King of the Northern Orange County Citrus Fruit Exchange on the methods used in marketing the fruit of the nine houses of which he is in charge followed the showing of the moving pictures after lunch. King said that the Bastanchury ranch, which has joined the California Fruit Growers Exchange, will erect a packing plant of its own with a maximum capacity of 14 cars per day. The last speaker of the day was Manager Castel of the Orange Products Company at San Dimas, who told of the work of utilizing cull oranges for the manufacture of orange SENORITA COLIN was struck by a plane piloted by Capt. Fritz as it was rising from the ground for an exhibition flight. ITS SPRINGS EXTEND Strong claims for is easy riding qualities are made for an automobile the suspension springs of which extend 15 inches in front of and behind the axles instead of being confined to the wheel base. We are all prone to exaggeration when we are talking about our own miseries.—Judge Granger. Witman, Eyesight Specialist. Interviews with prominent English raisers of pigs revealed that this method had not yet been tried in England and probably would not be, because of its roughness on the pig. Considerable speculation was aroused, however, some persons thinking that the operation might be a useful adjunct to the monkey-gland operation. Bay windows, it was pointed out, could be removed, thus completing the renovation. Beauty specialists were also asked their advice as to whether such an idea might be used to help the fashions in women's shapes, introducing real fat instead of bustles, or having the fat removed instead of prohibiting malted milks and potatoes. A skeptic has, however, given these revolutionary ideas a set-back. He observed that the name of the German village mentioned means in English "Sneaking fat."
