ANAHEIMERS IN SUNDAY CRASHES
Anaheimers were the victims of several accidents over the week-end.
Dave Carlisle of Mann's Garage, while driving his Ford touring car thru Santa Ana canyon at about 11:30 last night, had a remarkably narrow escape from death. Carlisle was going 25 miles an hour on the return trip from Ontario, when in some way his wheels became locked or steering gear refused to work as he rounded a curve and he ran into one of the white fences. Luckily the car stopped where it was. The front axle and one of the fenders was bent. He escaped unhurt.
H. C. Hiscroft in a collision yesterday in Riverside received a shaking up and the left rear fender and left side of the body of his Ford touring car were bent up. Dunton's Garage is repairing the machine.
E. B. Mathias of Los Angeles while driving to Santa Ana with four adults and three children had a collision at Sycamore and North Los Angeles-st. The front axle fenders and bumper of his new Chevrolet car were bent up. A Buick car was coming westward on Sycamore and Mathias stopped in the track of the other car. Myers Garage is doing the repairs.
The Studebaker touring car of an employee of the culinary department of the Elks' clubhouse was in a collision in Los Angeles yesterday. The left front fender was bent.
In less than ten hours he recovered them wholly intact, found by an Anaheim school boy.
Mr. Derksen had just come from San Bernardino his former residence, with a load of furniture and after superintending the nulloading at their new home on No. Resh-st., hed set forth for a local bank with the satchel which he supposed had placed inside his car, but which had mistakenly been left on the running board.
The satchel was lost enroute to the bank, and was later found by eleven-year-old Paul Bruce, who immediately came to The Plain Dealer office to insert a classified ad, telling where it could be located. A few hours later Mr Derksen with a like idea proceeded to The Plain Dealer office to insert an ed. When he was informed where the satchel could be located.
Mr. Derksen was well pleased and substantially rewarded the boy for his honesty.

MERCHANTS APPROVE BONDS
Regard Improvements Possible Under Issue as Essential to City's Growth
Tomorrow will be a great day for the children of Anaheim, as well as adults, when the people will vote on the bond issue for $165,000. A major portion of the bonds will be for the new city park equipment and beautification. The sum of $100,000 will be used for this purpose, $40,000 to complete the new city hall, and $25,000 to pave Lincoln-ave, and various street intersections.

After binding and gagging him, the two lefensely made their escape with the money.
PLAN RACING AT COUNTY
Tomorrow will be a great day for the children of Anaheim, as well as adults, when the people will vote on the bond issue for $165,000. A major portion of the bonds will be for the new city park equipment and beautification. The sum of $100,000 will be used for this purpose, $40,000 to complete the new city hall and $25,000 to pave Lincoln ave. and various street intersections.
Anaheim Retail Merchants Protective Ass'n, in monthly session last Monday night unanimously endorsed the entire issue, and practically every merchant in the association is a tax payer, several members being among the heaviest taxpayers in the city.
"I am heartily in favor of the entire ticket," said William Falkenstein, one of the pioneer merchants who has seen Anaheim grow and who has done his share and more, in the development of this great baby metropolis. "I am particularly happy over the $100,000 to complete our wonderful city park. I find from the proposed plans that the welfare and happiness and recreation of young and old is provided, and I hope, with other old-timers, to enjoy the city park for a long time to come. The completion of the city hall and the paving work is imperative. I hope there will be no dissenting vote on either."
W. B. Holland, of the Holland Electric Co., declared today that he did not see how anyone could be opposed to the issue of $165,000 bonds for the purposes specified. "I am going to vote 100 per cent strong in my establishment and in my home," said Mr. Holland, "and I am glad of the opportunity to do my bit to keep Anaheim just one step ahead of cities its size."
H. D. McFarlane, manager of the Kafeteria Shoe Store, who has been here only a few months, declared that for a real, progressive city, Anaheim is in the front ranks. "That city park is a wonderful thing for the people of Anaheim. A city is judged by its people's desires to further the cause of humanity by putting something before the people to give them outdoor recreation."
"The $165,000 for the bond issue tomorrow is not going to be money spent, it is going to be money invested," declared Al Heyling, of Heyling's Drug Store, "and it will be the pride of generations to come when they behold that wonderful city park and the city hall that will be a monument to this generation." I doubt if there will be a vote against either proposition. It there is, it will be registered by someone who is not farsighted."
"Show me a city that provides well for its children and I will show suit I actually to Peeble Anaheimer
S. Bernardo Macaray, 65, who was burned to death in a fire that destroyed this two room ranch house near Walnut, nine miles west of Pomona, Sunday morning, will be buried in Anaheim, funeral services being held from St. Boniface Catholic church Tuesday at 2 p.m. He was born in San Gabriel and lived in and about Anaheim 40 years.
Besides the widow, Rosario, he leaves three sons, Frank, Porfie and Ralph and daughter, Esther, all of whom reside ta 422 So. Palm-st.
Discovery of the man's charred remains was made by a nephew who visited the scene at an early hour, bringing breakfast for the aged man, who has been an invalid for several years.
Until recently Macaray had been an inmate of the County Hospital, and since his release from the institution had been living in the little house alone. An effort to start a fire with kerosene evidently caused the blaze that resulted in the man's death.
Circumstances surrounding the case are such that no inquiry will be necessary in the opinion of Pomona officials.
COME WITHIN $96 OF RED X QUOTA
Mrs. J. W. Price, Anaheim district director of the American Red Cross Annual Roll Call, was happy this morning to announce that receipts comes within $96 of the total requisition as the quota of her district, $1,100.
Nearly all the returns are recorded, but there is a possibility that many, who wished to subscribe, have not been reached. These can 'phone Mrs. Price, 866-J, and arrangements for their enrollment will be made. The 60 ladies who have been responsible for the progress made, do not feel that Anaheim can afford to get so near the goal and lie down. There fore the returns will not be made until the balance is assured.
RAPHAEL ANSWERS ACTION OVER BOND
I. Raphael, one of the defendants in the suit of Robert Hutcheson as plaintiff against A. L. Gribbling, Raphael and L. F. Pomeroy in connection with the construction of three Anaheim high school buildings, today thru his attorney filed an answer to the complaint in which he denies that the bond for the contract, $73,980.50, was expected on June 24, 1920 or prior to the time when the work was begun. Raphael makes a wholesale denial of "information or belief" concerning any of the many paragraphs in the complaint.
He said the contract was collection into an antireoom...to praise the sermon. One of them extended a $5 bill...When Bufford reached for it he was covered After binding and gagging him, the two leisurely made their escape with the money.
PLAN RACING AT COUNTY FAIRS
The committee appointed by W. B. Williams, President of the Orange County Fair Ass'n, composed of Harry D. Riley, chairman, and Messrs Chas, Spicer, N. T. Edwards, A. S. Bradford, and C. E. Laverjay, met at the Farm Bureau at Santa Ana last Saturday morning at 9 o'clock. The committee was appointed to discuss the feasibility of constructing a race track and holding races as part of the attractions for the Orange County Fair. The committee discussed every possible phase of his matter, securing information from the Associations of Pomona, Riverside and Ventura, who recommend highly the holding of races and said they would not attempt to promote a Fair proposition without the race track attractions as they felt it was responsible for about 75% of their attendance. The committee unanimously recommended the building of the track and the holding of all kinds of races in connection with the Fair activities.
The committee also viewed the prospective Fair site on the old Fair grounds southwest of Santa Ana, and also the new site offered by Anaheim's committee from Anaheim C. of C. A committee from Anaheim chamber secured an option on the Schwartzbauch 60 acres situated on the highway bordering Mr. Ford's property on the north, which is exactly 4.3 miles from the center of Santa Ana business district and about four miles from the center of Anaheim's. This location would be ideal, according to the committee, as it would be convenient, not only to Santa Ana (but Orange Garden Grove and all of Orange-co.

I doubt if there will be a vote against either proposition. It there is, it will be registered by someone who is not farsighted."
"Show me a city that provides well for its children and I will show you a city that is a good place to own your home," said Joseph E. Strup, proprietor of Stroup markets.
"The practically unanimous desire of the taxpayers to have the improvements noted in the bond election is evidence enough, I believe, to pass the issue by a great majority. It will be a great advertisement for this city when it becomes known that Anaheim has provided an adequate park and city hall for the coming generation. I doubt very much if anyone is opposed to paving the streets of the city where paving is needed. Let's all unite and make it unanimous."

LOCAL PEOPLE IN ON BIG HUNTINGTON BEACH WELL
Coming in at 6 P.M. Saturday with hardly 20 pounds pressure, which rose to over 900 pounds at P. M. Sunday, and has been increasing hourly, Bolsa Chica Petroleum Corporation's Well No. 2 in the newly discovered "deep sands" of the Huntington Beach field marks the latest great development in the Calif. Oil Production.
That this well has the ear marks of ranking among Sou. Calif.'s biggest revenue producers is admitted by those outside the company who are in closest touch with new wells immediately adjacent which marked the discovery of Huntington Beach deep sand.
At 4 p.m. Sunday the sump pit was nearly full to the brim and at 6 o'clock the mud entirely disappeared from the flow, which was then diverted to the company's tanks.
DIRT MOVES ON SEWER OUTFALL
RACING COUNTY AIRS
The office appointed by W.B. President of the Orange Ass'n, composed of lay, chairman, and policer, N.T. Edwards, and C.E. Lavering, form Bureau at Santa Clara morning at 4 p.m. Sunday the sump pit was nearly full to the brim and at 6 o'clock the mud entirely disappeared from the flow, which was then diverted to the company's tanks. With very good authority behind the statement, it is said that Bolsa Chica now boasts a 2000 barrel oil well.
Great local interest has been involved in this corporation's activities as a coterie of local investors comprise their small list of stockholders. Included in this local circle who will no doubt greatly benefit by Saturday's discovery are—A. Thomas, president of the Golden State Bank, J. B. Spencer, V.D. Loly, H.L. Turton, Thos. Lumsdon and Mrs. L. Helmsen.
The Bolsa Chica Petroleum Corp. is probably the most closely held of any organization in California oil fields. Chas. Boege, prominent local banker and one of the ultra-conservative men of this district, is president; Hugh Grant, secretary and treasurer and Victor D. Loly, the only local director. Julius Fried, one of California's wealthiest and most experienced oil operators, became a member of the board recently and made sizable par purchases of stock, looking into holdings of the company very closely.
The new "deep sand" gusher is situated 350 feet west of the Amalgamated Oil Co.'s Miley-Keck No. 11, which came in to the tune of 1900 bbls, recently and has been steadily gaining in production, now averaging over 2650 bbls. a day. Petroleum Midway 3-1-A, discovery well of the "deep sand" zone, is a bare 250 feet northeast of the Bolsa Chica's new giant and has averaged over 2000 bbls. a day since it came in a few weeks ago.
The corporation is letting contracts for deepening No. 1 now within 500 feet of the deep sands, and already a producer and a derrick for No. 3 is ordered, to which the rig of No. 2 will be removed within a few days. Thus, it is expected that three producers will be spurring revenue for this company within four months.
Hugh Grant, who, it will be interesting to note, was the first man to profit from oil production in Huntington Beach field, in April, 1921, has had unvarying confidence in the permanence of the field which he has shown repeatedly by investing heavily of his own funds, when development called for quick and ready money.
Recently he and Mr. Boege acquired for the corporation additional acres of great value in this proven zone, notably a piece joining the lease on which the spectacular Jackie Coogan No. 1 stands; also they bot another piece just next to the present discovery which adds increably
DIRT MOVES ON SEWER OUTFALL
The joint outfall sewer of Anaheim, Santa Ana, Fullerton and Orange is under construction. The dirt began to fly today at Seal Beach and west of Seal Beach, the County Engineer's office reported. Joe Chutuk, the Los Angeles contractor who got the job, has established headquarters at the Talbert ranch.
Fifty men are at work, with a drag-line and two steam shovels. The pipe to be laid is 42-inch vitrified segmental blocks. Little delay is anticipated.
Orange practically has finished its plans to connect with the sewer in Garden Grove.
In an interview Ctutuk said that the first links of the chain of pipes will be laid within a week or 10 days, if no unforeseen delays occur. Only the most expert pipe-layers will be employed and they will work eight hours per day. Under normal conditions the contract should be fulfilled well within the 180 days specified, said Chutuk.
STEWART AT FIRST CHORAL MEETING
Mr. Alexander Stewart, organizer of Community Music for the Pacific Coast for Community Service, Inc., will attend the Anaheim Community Choral Society meeting this evening at the high school. Mr. Stewart who is the past president of the Music Teachers' Association of Calif., and has assisted in organizing and directing the music weeks held in such cities as Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Portland, etc., is now in Los Angeles assisting in the organization work of Los Angeles' second music week to be held in the early spring. He is also giving some of his time to the organization of music week to be held in Long Beach and Glendale.
Mrs. Ruth Seitz, president of Anaheim Community Choral society, states that Anaheim is very fortunate in having the assistance and advice of such a well known music organizer as Alexander Stewart. Mrs. Seitz expects a very large attendance this evening and suggests that all interested in better music be at Anaheim H.S. at 7:30 as there is con-

Hugh Grant, who, it will be interesting to note, was the first man to profit from oil production in Huntington Beach field, in April, 1921,
has had unvarying confidence in the permanence of the field which he has shown repeatedly by investing heavily of his own funds, when development called for quick and ready money.
Recently he and Mr. Boege acquired for the corporation additional acreage of great value in this proven zone, notably a piece affolling the lease on which the spectacular Jackie Coogan No. 1 stands; also they bot another piece just next to the present discovery which adds measurably to the assets.
The latest discovery in the Huntington Beach field gives Rugh Grant the fifth well in which he is largely interested. All the others are heavy producers. It is stated on good authority that he and Mr. Boege own an impressive percentage of the total outstanding stock of "Bolsa Chica Pet."
Grant said last night that the only thing which had interfered with his building a residence on his Park View property in Anaheim was the constant drain on his time caused by the delay in getting the new wells into production. For over a month fishing jobs have been reported to the last on Oct. 31 when a 500-foot string of wash pipe was run off at the threads. Mr. Grant will begin this week the plans for his new home and move the family from El Monte as soon as possible so that he can center his efforts on the promising business in hand.
