Tuesday, June 6, 1922 SPORT WRESTLING AS HEALTH PROMOTER BY ROY MABEE West Anaheim rancher and wrestler of note, who will attempt to throw Al sparrows and Vic Baden each twice in 60 minutes at the Grand theater next week. From the days of Imperial Rome, and autedating them, during the ages when "might made right" down to our own age when commercialism dominates all, the physical development of the boy and young man has constituted the bulwark and defence of the home and state. During the strenuous ages mentioned, the gymnasiums and military camps offered the places of physical development under an obligatory system, and we read as a result of the splendid military organizations of those states of the magnificent victories obtained by their armies under many and adverse circumstances. Not so today. With our commercial ideas uppermost, the boy is incarcerated in the schools to have the newest ideas of astronomy and other higher branches crammed into his brain and on the completion of his course he is immediately thrust into a bank or office, confined there all day in a stuffy place with no thought as to his physical well-being, the result being in many cases, after a year or two, a thin, weakly and narrow chested young fellow who easily fails a prey to tuberculosis, and early decline. This article is designed principally to make a plea for the physical development of the boy at school and encourage healthy and developing sports, such as wrestling, after completion of his school term. Wrestling is without doubt the pre-Thank goodness, in more and more schools, physical exercises and sports are made a part of the curriculum, both for boys and girls, the result being healthier and harder pupils who in addition to using the clubs, bells and turning bars are also instructed in wrestling. To become proficient in wrestling one should have a good physique although a weaker physique under careful training can be fairly well developed. In addition, one must have a active and alert mind, for while brawn counts for a great part, still the knotted muscles of a physical giant in many respects are often overcome by the supple, well trained muscles of a smaller and more scientific wrestler. The wrestler should possess great activity and quickness for upon these depend the greatest success. He should entirely abstain from alcohol and tobacco, for these are the two most detrimental vices which prey upon good physical condition and good wind needed to stand the gruelling contests on the mat. To maintain good wind, road work or long runs short of fatigue over roads do most to develop good wind. This, in addition to skipping the rope and hill climbing develops by enlarging and strengthening the respiratory organs and bring into play all the accessory muscles of respiration. With such development the boy grows into manhood with every self confidence in his ability to protect and take care of himself, without recourse to weapons, and when physical development is given the proper care and encouragement in our schools we will have a more self reliant and self confident group of boys who will depend more upon ANAHEIM S PLAN FO Anaheim H.

MORNING MATINEE PROVES POPULAR The morning showing of "Daddy Long Legs," at the Grand theatre, under the auspices of the Parent-Teacher association, was a great success and the theatre was packed full to the doors. In fact, there were numbers, who not being able to secure a seat, had to leave. Although the figures are not available at this hour, it is safe to say the venture was the most encouraging one recently staged by the association. The Girls' Glee club, under direction of their teacher, Mrs. C. A. McCullah, sang two numbers, "Rockin' Time," and "An Indian Feast Song." A boys' trio, composed of Donald Bigelow, Donald Brown and Edwin Osher sang "Tim Rooney's at the Fightin.'" These numbers were greatly appreciated and certainly well rendered. The West Coast Theatres, with which Mr. Ingram and Mr. Retlaw are the local representatives, donated the use of the theatre and were instrumental in securing the beautiful picture. The ladies of the association are delighted with the success of the matinee. ELLIOTT-ANDERSON SUIT HEARD FRIDAY Next Friday morning before Superior Judge Z. B.

On one side will be the catalog cabinet. The cabinets to contain the books will be placed around the room, new books as well as new furnishing will make this library the best in school libraries. The reconstruction of the old auditorium into a library and study hall is an absolute necessity owing to the crowded conditions of the school, and the need for more study room. June Weddings Not Only Anniversaries The June weddings of this month are not only weddings that are celebrated, says E. F. Gielow of Anaheim Electric Co. As there are an extra number of weddings each June, so there are an extra number of wedding anniversaries—the golden, silver, crystal, china weddings, at which friends of the couple gather and congratulate them on the successful completion of decades of matrimony, and show their friendship with gifts which tradition assigns to the successive recurrences of the wedding day. How these anniversary gifts may be expressed electrically has been suggested by the California Electrical Co-operative campaign committee, as a detail of the June bride week celebration, June 5 to June 10. The anniversaries and the gift suggestions follow: Fifth — Wooden Wedding—Vacuum cleaner—note the wooden handle! Tenth — Tin Wedding—Electric heater, electric fan — tin used in construction. Fifteenth — Crystal — Electric Lamp, electric percolator with glass bowl. Twentieth — China Wedding — Electric lamps, coffee percolator and percolator sets in China. Miss Myers, teaching the higher grades and acting principal, has given at all times the very best of satisfaction and it is with deep regret that her services are lost to the Cypress district. Mrs. Merril's quiet, loving personality is wonderfully suited for the handling of the little folks. It is surely a loss to the Cypress school that she has decided to withdraw from us. The new school building is progressing rapidly. The foundation work is about complete. Most of the material for the building is on the ground and the work is going on as rapidly as possible. The local committee of the farm center working in conjunction with secretary-manager of the Orange-co farm bureau, Flarathy, is meeting Mr. and Mrs. Ira Stone and family were dinner guests at Mr. Stone's father's home in Yorba Linda Sunday. Miss Florence Wollert of Anaheim helped to eat a chicken dinner at the Varner home on this lease Sunday. Mrs. Frank Dliker went into Los Angeles the other day and came home with a new electric washing machine. Mr. and Mrs. Dunbar and family attended the show entitled "Almond Eyes" given by the school-in Brea Friday night and say it was fine. Mr. and Mrs. Isaac Mayfield motored to Downey Sunday and had dinner with Mrs. Mayfield's mother. Mr. and Mrs. Braton Philbrook returned from their honeymoon trip to Yosemite Tuesday night and report a lovely trip. They are at home to their many friends now in Los Angeles. SEND UNFORTUNATE BOY'S BODY EAST The body of Leonard Fox, aged 24 will be started to his relatives in Bertram, Texas, at 5:40 this afternoon. Mr. Fox met with accidental death Saturday while engaged in the oil fields near Huntington Beach. A cable broke, allowing the heavy tongs to strike him. The young man, in company with another worker who was injured at the same time, was started to the hospital here, but died on the way and his body has since been at the Backs & Terry Company, undertaking parlors. The other young man, Fred Borges, is yet at the hospital, but is recovering. with encouraging success in the pool grain buying. It is hoped that the first car under this plan will be on track in the next few days. The married men stepped all over the boys in the Big baseball game Sunday. The boys are planning to get revenge at the expense of the Los Alamitos boys next Sunday. The graveling of South Walker-st is complete. This improvement is greatly appreciated by the community. The Cypress Farm Center meets tonight. A good program has been arranged and there will be refreshments. Plain Dealer Want Ads Bring Results. Electrical Appliances California Electrical Appliance Week June 5-10 1922 Anahe 209 West Center St. SPECIAL TRAIN TO KIWANIS MEETING With a special train out of Los Angeles, June 14, over the So. Pacific, California Kiwanis clubs expects to send a big representation to the annual international convention at Toronto, June 19-22. The train will make no stops whatever en route. Californians practically are committed to the support of Denver for the 1923 convention, says A. B. McCord, delegate from the Aanheim club, unless some California city makes a bid for the gathering. Orange-co clubs will send one delegate each, and every club in the state will send one or more. Los Angeles, San Diego and Riverside are among the cities in the southland which will send two delegates each. As many cars will be utilized as necessary to accommodate the crowd. Californians have made no arrangement to join with the clubs of any other state for transportation and are not likely to do so, says McCord. Denver at this time appears to be making the strongest effort to land the next annual meeting, but serious opposition may develop in the course of the Toronto convention. Many of the Californian delegates plans to make side trip while they are in the east, and some will combine business with pleasure. Automatic Housework by Electrical Appliances The nearest approach to automatic housework is found in electrical appliances, says W. H. Holland, of the Holland Electric Co. Nearly every housewife knows now of the electric washing amachine, in which all you have to do is put in your clothes and press the button and the machine does the work, and when you are ready, it runs the electric wringer for you. And the electric dishwasher is becoming almost as well known, the appliance in which the dishes are put from the table, hot water turned on and they are automatically washed and dried in the heat of MAILS LATE WHEN CARS JUMP TRACK Mails brought in on Santa Fe Train No. 78, arriving at 2:26 a.m., didn't arrive until 6:08 a.m. on No. 79, owing to an accident in which a couple of freight cars were derailed on the sugar factory spur. No. 75 went around to Fullerton, Placentia, Olive and Orange, where the mails were transferred, and from Orange toward San Diego, omitting its stop here. The accident to the freight train happened between one and two a.m. today. INSANITY COMPLAINT AGAINST DAUGHTER W. H. Strong of Long Beach today swore to an insanity complaint against his daughter, Mrs. Lola Strong, who was found wandering half-clad in Santa Ana canyon a week ago and taken to the county hospital for several days. The action of the father followed a second demonstration of mental disorder... Long Beach police finding the girl wandering about Signal Hill. CLOSE TWO WELLS BECAUSE OF GAS The Santa Fe Springs Syndicate has closed down its well No. 1 for the time being because of the fear of its becoming another gasser. The well is in oil sand and has been for a week. It is down 3800 feet. The company has capped it and will resume drilling later. The State is understood to have compelled the closing down of drilling in the Geddes-Nordstrom well for the same reason. The Santa Fe field now has an estimated 175 rigs, with one or two more going up almost daily.

S. Q. R. Store Stages Summer Fashion Show The S. Q. R. Store is staging a fashion show this afternoon and giving a musical program which is attracting large crowds and intense interest. Four well-known actresses from Los Angeles are modeling "California Girl" dresses, in all the latest tub fabrics. Dorded French ginghams, novelty capes, voles, organ-dles, all the latest things in the line, are attracting the admiration of the watchers. The fashion show will again be held tomorrow afternoon between 2 and 4 o'clock, and the management of the store invites all ladies of Anaheim and vicinity to see the latest things but for summer wear, displayed to greatest advantage by living models. SUPERVISORS OPEN RESERVOIR BIDS Bids on the new reservoir of reinforced concrete to be built at the Oran-co. Park were opened by county supervisors today. EXTEND TIME FOR HODGES IN COURT The appearance of Walter Hodges in Superior Court at Santa Ana, which was scheduled for yesterday, has been extended a week to next Monday at 10 a.m. Hodges is accu- ed by the Golden State Motor Compa- ny of driving away in a new Hupmobile and will have to answer to the charge of embezzling the machine. He was taken to San Diego on Saturday to answer a worthless check charge and failed to show up yesterday. YEGGS MAIL BACK S. A. MAN'S CHECKS Charles Spicer, Santa Ana merchant, today received by mail a money bag filled with checks, part of the loot taken by yeggmen who blew his safe and two others some time during the week-end. The bag had been mailed in Los Angeles, confirming the opinion of Santa Ana officials that the gang was from outside the county. NEGRO SUSPECT FREED A jury in Department No. 1 of the Superior Court in four minutes turned a verdict of not guilty in the case of William Anderson, a negro, accused of burglary. Attorney Roger C. Dutton of this city defended the colored man, who was accused of entering the house of J. L. Jones at Anghethorpe avenue and Spadra road near Fullerton some three months ago. GAGGED MAN IN CAR Report of a man seen gagged and bound in the front seat of a brown Hudson car, license No. 660717, started the sheriff's office on the hunt today. The report was made by J. W. Crawford, a lineman for the Pacific Tel. & Tl. Co. The occupant was believed by the authorities to be an insane person en route to the asylum, but this fact will be verified if possible.
