LARGE ATTENDANCE AT REALTY BOARD The regular meeting of the Anaheim Realty Board was held last night, there being a large attendance. There were no special speakers but a general discussion among the members on matters of current interest to realtors. A report was received on the national convention at Jacksonville, Fla. Pending legislation was discussed, especially the bill introduced by Senator Sample providing for examinations by brokers before being issued a license. The examining board would be composed of men who had had at least eight years experience in the real estate business.

ZERO WEATHER ON WAY TO MID-WEST THROW OUT SEVERAL ANNEXATION VOTES Whether approximately 250 acres between North Palm, West North, Perry avenue and the State highway shall join Anaheim is being decided today. Up to 3:30 p'clock this afternoon 25 votes had been cast of which, it is said, 15 "stuck." A quarrel ensued at the polls over the legitimacy of two votes from men who it was alleged, were not boni fide residents of the section to be annexed, but had been sleeping on army cots in a small building inside the district to be annexed in order to be able to vote. Their votes were cast out, and the judges of the election ordered the men out of the polling place after a few words. The right of three Mexicans to vote was also disputed because of their alleged inability to read and write English. The territory is partly in the East and partly in the West Anaheim precinct. F. A. Dyckman, J. Knplp and Edward Torrance are the acting officials at the voting place, which is in the old Vanderhorck place at North Palm and eWst North-sts. The polls opened officially at 5 o'clock and will close at seven. Sentiment in the district appears to be in favor of uniting with Anaheim.
