AT FULLERTON D. D. Sharp, for eight years horticultural commissioner of Riverside, and for 31 years a resident of Riverside, has accepted the position as manager of the citrus fruits department of the American Fruit CONTINUE HEARING ON U. P. APRIL 28 The matter of a Union Pacific right of way thru Fullerton will be taken up again on April 28 at the Fullerton city hall under Irving Martin, state railway commissioner. It was impossible to hear all the witnesses at the recent hearing. The consensus of opinion among the citizens of Fullerton is to favor the building of the road thru the city, yet oppose with might and main the two crossings on So. Spadra-rd., which it is alleged, would constitute a death trap. With the present right of way, the U. P. would cross Spadra-rd a quarter of a mile south of the Santa Fe, and it is said that motorists, after crossing one of the lines, would not be on the lookout for another, and therefore the danger would be great. It is also alleged that the value of real estate for residence purposes would be lowered, which it is said, would not be repaid by the increase in industrial property. Many favored a dip for the highway to go under the tracks, part of the cost to be paid by city and part by the railroad. ARREST 2 AT BREA ON LIQUOR CHARGES E. D. Stevens was arrested last night in Brea by E. R. Rudy, city marshal, on the charge of transporting booze, and R. B. Jones on the charge of disorderly conduct and disturbing the peace.

Races One of the interesting side lights on the sprint race program at the Los Angeles Speedway was the rush trip made into the city from the track and return to the pits for a new rear axle for Art Klein's Frontenac, which threw a wheel in the first lap of the opening heat. It was announced at the track that a motorcycle officer has ecorted a truck in the wild dash against time. COLLEGE BOYS HERE TO EARN SCHOOL FUNDS Four young men from U. of S. C., are in town for a few days advertising the Pattern Department of the Prince Store, and in this way earning a few extra dollars during their Easter vacation. By securing a total of 100 subscriptions to the Pictorial Review they will be paid $50 by the Pictorial Review Co., which will give them a nice start towards the funds they need to complete the team's work at the University. Canvassing has often been tried by "fake students," but these young men all bear credentials from Univ. of So. Calif. The Prince Store, and the Pictoral Review Co. which they will be glad to show to those who are interested. The Cash Store is the local agent for the Pictorial Review Co., and recommends the boys and their work to the citizens of Anaheim.

California LAST TIMES TONIGT WALLACE REID IN "The World's Champion" A Paramount Picture He licked every pug in sight! Was a pal of lords and dukes. But when he faced a certain girl— Come see him take him count! REO SPEEDWAGON IS Surprise at L. A. Races One of the interesting side lights on the sprint race program at the Los Angeles Speedway was the rush trip made into the city from the track and return to the pits for a new rear axle for Art Klein's Frontenac, which threw a wheel in the first lap of the opening heat. It was announced at the track that a motorcycle officer has ecorted a truck in the wild dash against time, but no mention of course was made of the name of the truck, as American Automobile Association rules forbid anything of the sort which is suggestive of publicity for any make of car or truck. In this case it happened to be a Reo speed wagon, one of the score at the truck furnished for the convenience of the drivers in carrying supplies, that made the fast trip. W. H. Billie, of the Reo Motor Car Company service plant, was at the wheel of the vehicle, while Charlie Dice, chief of police at Sawtelle, acted as escort. Only forty-two minutes was occupied in securing the axle and returning it, according to the announcement, and Klein was able to start in the third heat, instead of the fourth or fifth, as he had expected, because of the delay. It was a great tribute to the speed and hardiness of the speed wagon, but was only one of the many features brought out by the attendance of the Reo fleet at the speedway. Those in the stands could see the long line of Reos drawn up in military array in the infield after the start of the race. They had brought their "ammunition" to the "font," and, when the races were over, they brought back the tools and supplies and in several cases towed in their crippled proteges. ESKERANTO IN MILAN ROME, April 15.—The study of Esperanto has been introduced in the fifth and sixth grades of the schools in Milan because of Socialistic influence brought to bear on the school board.

FIRESNO, April 15.—The Press will appear as a new afternoon newspaper in Freeso as soon as a three-story and basement building can be constructed. Its publishers will be V. S. and C. K. McClatchy, who under the firm name of James McClatchy & Co., also publish The Sacramento Bee. J. V. McClatchy, assistant business manager, and Carlos K. McClatchy, assistant editor of The Sacramento Bee, will be business manager and editor, respectively, of the new publication. MISSOURI SQUAD MEETS BEARS BERKELEY, April 15.—Prospects of a cold wind early today made conditions not too propitious for the University of Missouri-University of California track meet on the Berkeley oval this afternoon. Brutus Hamilton, Missouri star, was the center of all the speculation around the meet. Even the most enthusiastic Californians regarded him as a dangerous man, likely to snare enough points alone to make trouble.
