WILLARD HAS HAD TIME WITH MATCH By Sargum Sprout Jess Willard former world's champion is having a very difficult time trying to land a chance to regain the crown. Dempsey claims to be willing but boxing commissions newspapers and the fight promoters are banning big Jess; he is too old, too fat and many other reasons are given. Jess does not want to fight the crop of ham and eggers that are infesting the pugilistic world; he wants to fight Dempsey and no one else. Civilization has advanced pretty far when a man wants to fight but can't get the other party to come across. Dempsey claims that he is going into the movies and retire from the ring for ever if a fight is not arranged soon. Gosh if Jess and Jack are so blamed anxiously to fight why don't they cross into Mexico or meet privately. The old time fighters got together and fought oftentimes just to be fighting. In these days of high finance, the present fortune hunters are not so foolish. Our wrestling farmer is a busy man these days. Besides tending his 20-acre grove and doing the weekly wasf Roy is trying to help in the promoting of the coming match in Riverside and at the same time get into the best of condition. Roy is like an old hen with a bunch of little ducks, he has so many irons in the fire that he is continually fussing about at top speed. If he had a chance to slow down and train systematically without the worry of a thousand and one things he would be the champion of his class. He is up against a tough proposition in this Pergantos and should be giving all his time in preparing for the match, instead he is dashing all over the country from Los Angeles to Riverside and training at odd times. With all the fussing, worry and nervous strain he is a corking good wrestler, in fact there is just one FULLERTON LOSES TO ORANGE BY 28 TO 14.

NO BOXING SHOW AT ARENA TONIGHT The local "Palais de Swat" will be dark tonight. Boxing shows have been switched to Tuesday, starting Feb. 6th. Billy Darnley expects to stage a cracketpack card. Two good boys, Paul Wilkins, former Okla-homan and a rough, tough little Irish youth by name of "Irish Jimmy" Clayton will feature. The usual good semi-windup and numbers of preliminaries will also be on the program. better and I have my doubts about that one. The Buena Park Eastern Star Chapter is giving a dance in the Masonic Hall. Buena Park Saturday night. And that's not all, they have decreed that Sargum Sprout shall be present and assist in the management of that dance. Our fantastic toe has lost its grace many moons ago, but I guess that there is nothing left for Sargum but to trot out his glad rags and attend that dance. And as a member of the committee I invite you to attend. LEAGUE LEFT LOSE THAT The Whittier fall out of one of when they trim Dolls all three shootings 203 had and his 539 was in.

LEAGUE LEADERS LOSE THREE GAMES The Whittier No. 1 team took a fall out of one of the league leaders when they trimmed Efker's Baby Dolls all three games. McGaugh shooting 203 had high single game and his 539 was high total. In the other City League match the Fanning Candy Co., now two games from O'Donnell's Victor Cords, Theodores 192 was high single game and Gordon of the losers turned in 528 for high series. Tonight's feature match will be rolled between the Silver Moon Cafe and the Keen Hat Store and promises to draw a large crowd of rooters who are looking for the hat men to take a fall out of the leaders. The other match is between Bill's Cafe who are tied for the lead and Whittier No. 2, the latter team are going good and should cause the cafe men plenty of worry. "Noisy!"

Even the great Ty Cob has not been able to equal them. Wee Willie was able to hit safely over 200 times for eight consecutive seasons. Cob has passed the 200 mark eight seasons but the seasons were not consecutive. Another of Keeler's records that is liable to stand for some time is hitting safely in four consecutive games. George Zisler, one of the greatest if not the greatest palyer of today, came near equaling that record last season when he hit safely for 41 consecutive games. Our old friend Ad Santel is still alive and able to take nourishment. A big wrestler by the name of Jim Londas blew into Los Angeles a few weeks back and immediately laid claim to Santel's crown. Jim is a great man and outweighs Ad some twenty pounds. Now, Jim conceived the idea with this extra weight and a big display of what is commonly known as "bull" he could run Old Ad out of this neck of the woods. Anyway, Londas and his backers offered to post $1000 that Londons could beat Ad. Old Ad quietly put up his money and told the Londas bunch to come on. To date Londos has failed to come. There is to be a heavyweight wrestling match Feb. 21 at Hollywood American Legion Stadium that should interest wrestling fans. Joe Stacher and Yussif Hussane are two of the most colorful men in the game today. The Terrible Turk has never held the world's championship but he has been clinging to the top rounds of the wrestling ladder for years. Stecher has held the championship, and is claimed by many to be the greatest man of today if he would get in top condition. Anyway, the match will be a great one. ANAHEIM SCRAPPERS ASSEMBLED HONORS It took a couple of Anaheim boxers to cop the honors at Urbita Athletic club last night. Johnny Handes, the flashy little 122-pounder from the wilds of Honolulu, took all the glory and honor and fight out of Tommy Freeman in four of the most sensational rounds of milling seen in the Gate City in a long time. Lee Reece, Jimmy Douglas of Phoenix in the semi-windup, lost the decision but earned the plaudits of the big crowd for his clever showing as well as gameness. If anybody was entitled to the verdict, Reece was for he had three rounds to his credit. He tired in the last round, however, and Douglas went after him hammer and tongs. A draw would not have hurt either boy. Once again it shows the judge system is all wrong. Young Kid McCoy took the medal from Gil Davis after four spirited rounds while Morris Davidson and Geo. Wilson drew in the same number. Billy Darnley, local club manager, who acted as third man in the ring, had to stop the go between Ad Rubidoux of San Bernardino and Kid Rubio of Riverside in the third round when Rubidoux had Rubio on the canvas and in a bad way from several knockdowns. This was their second meeting and, as in the first bout several weeks ago, Rubidoux clearly demonstrated his superiority. Darnley was commended on all sides for stopping it when he did. CITY GIRL'S IDEA OF FARM HAND'S MEAL Senator Curtis, of Kansas, tells a good story about an occurrence on a big wheat ranch in his state. A sister of the farmers wife came from Boston to spend a few weeks. She insisted that the farm sister was out of style and needed some new clothes, accordingly she packed her off to St. Louis on a shopping tour, explaining that she would run the household during her absence. The next day a gang of husky threshers appeared up- GERMAN STAGECRAFT BANNED BY FRANCE PARIS—There'll be no German production nor any German stagecraft at the Odeon, France's second state-subsidized theater. Not even the famed Max Reinhardt will get in there, according to M. Leon Berard, minister of public instruction and fine arts. The reason is that Max Reinhardt, who directed German theatrical ventures in Paris before 1914 and who was very well received, nevertheless signed the famous "manifesto of the ninety-three" German intellectuals approving the war. Therefore, the hellicose right side of the Chamber of Deputies has announced it will have nothing to do with a theater supported in part by the French taxpayer—even though the Odeon's director, M. Firnim Gemier, had asked Reinhardt to Paris to stage Schiller's "Wallenstein" among other plays. M. Ybarnegarary, a deputy, almost threatened to throw the government, Polincare and all out of office if they let Gemier and Reinhardt get away with it. M. Pierre Ramell tried bravely to defend the director of the Odeon. Then M. Berard intervened. Gemier, he said, was a great artist. CHRYSANTHEMUMS VIE WITH CHERRIES The chrysanthemum is as much the national symbol of Japan as the cherry blossom. For a long time this stately classical flower has been chosen as the imperial crest, the sixteen-petaled chrysanthemum. This beautiful flower belongs to the family of the Four Flower Knights, the Shi-kunshi, so named because of the vigorous qualities for which they stand. First is the Ume, or Plum Blossom, brave enough to face the snow, like a good woman whose virtue is enhanced by adversity. Second is the Ran, or Orchid, whose sweetness flourishes even when growing wild in the mountains. Third is the Take, or Bamboo, which symbolizes uprightness because of its straight growth. And fourth comes the Kiku, or Chrysanthemub, which preserves its beauty to the last, defying with unbroken stem the frosts of winter and bravely adorning the gardens forsaken of all other blooms. PLAIN Dealer Want Ads Get Results GRUESOME RELICS SOLD AT AUCTION PARIS—The effects of Henri ("Bluebeard"), Landru, who was guillotined for the murder nearly a dozen "wives" and "sweethearts," were auction today in the same courtroom where he was convicted. Marcel," a Paris lion tamer, was the first purchaser He bought three automobile tires for $5. The stove in which Landru was said to have burned bodies of his victims and knives were given the place of honor. Most of the persons present were women. The stove brought slightly more than $800. In front of the judge's bench were a pile of trunks and the stove. On a bench were butcher knives, sickles, 24 women's combs and curling irons, women's shoes and barrettes. A sack of laundry went for $3.25. MEMORIAL FOR NOTED AUTHOR MARTINEZ, Feb. 2—Bret Harte's favorite spot on Mount Diablo is to be marked with a memorial tablet, according to plans of the Mount Diablo state park council, as announced by Harry G. Williams, president of the council. "It is not generally known that in the early '60s Bret Harte was a tutor to the children of a family that lived at Alamo, but such was the case," said President Williams. "It is one of the traditions of Contra Costa county that Harte had other pupils besides the children of the family with whom he made his home, and that may account for the legend that he was a school teacher in California." MATADOR'S LIFE NOT ALL "PIE" A bullfighter," matador," draws from $2000 to $10,000 a fight, but has to pay his own men or "cuadrilla" about four in number. Before killing the bull he "dedicates" it to some prominent spectator and takes an oath to kill the bull or let the bull kill him. He must go through (technically) as long as he can stand on his feet. No one of his men can interfere between the bull and matador unless matador is on the ground helpless. A spectator entering the ring would cause a riot and the crowd would demand their money back. A bullfighter is an outcast or declassed from upper social strata, and could never meet socially an upperclass girl. A bull that charges and goes a horse must be charged; if one matador is laid out, another must take up the task of killing the bull, or "rain checks" must be passed—Adventure Magazine. CENATOR Curtis, of Kansas, tells a good story about an occurrence on a big wheat ranch in his state. A sister of the farmers wife came from Boston to spend a few weeks. She was decidedly superior and bossy. She insisted that the farm sister was out of style and needed some new clothes, accordingly she packed her off to St. Louis on a shopping tour, explaining that she would run the household during her absence. The next day a gang of husky threshers appeared upon the scene. They worked like beavers all day long. At 7 o'clock that evening the 17 of them marched into the dining-room as hungry as wolves. One big fellow remarked that he was so blamed hungry he could eat a stewed mule. They expected thick soup, big platters of beef, fried ham, baked beans, fried potatoes, corn, beans, jams, jellies, home-made bread, chocolate layer cake, and numerous other substantial articles of satisfying grub. Imagine their disgust—and language—when they found at each place a pale crustless sandwich, tied with a dinky little pale blue ribbon, a chicken croquette, just large enough to be gulped down in half a swallow, and a cheese ball about the size of a sparrow's egg. Insult was added to injury by serving coffee in little half-grown cups which she called demi tasse. She had given them to her sister for a wedding present, and was peeved because they had not been in constant use. ANOTHER FAMOUS LANDMARK PASSES SANDUSKY, D.-The hotel for which your Porter House steak was named is being razed. Built in 1817, the Porter House considering its size and accommodations, is said to be unrivaled in the midwest for picturesque historical background. Charles Dickens, who visited it in 1847, is credited with giving the hotel its first flush of fame. Dickens was so pleased with a steak served him in the little dining room, that when in Buffalo a few days later, he asked for a steak," like they serve at the Porter House in Sandusk." The English author spread the fame of the Porter House steak throughout the country by dwelling on its delicousness in many American addresses. Soon afterward leading cafes and hotels announced "Porter House" steaks. It is not known whether any one ever actually took the trouble to get the cooking formula from the Porter House chef. It is said here that chefs merely started calling their best steaks "Porter House." The old hotel declared a menace by the state fire marshal, has had a half dozen names during its lifetime, but there are still a few residents of Sandusk who remember it as the Porter House.
