When it comes to using fists or riding horseback or doing feats of daring William Duncan AND Edith Johnson NOW SHOWING UNITED Theatre Anaheim ALSO Monte Banks IN “The Artist” AND “Beyond the Jordan” Scene of the Holy Land Are in a class by themselves. They have won a following with a type of photodrama peculiar to themselves and “WHEN DANGER SMILES” RYDER WELL KEEPS UP BIG PRODUCTION (With Oil Operators) That the Long Beach field is capable of maintaining an 8000 barrel well has been demonstrated by the Petroleum Midway company. Ryder No. 1 the well that showered the Hill a few weeks ago and threatened to submerge the entire field in oil has settled down to a regular daily production of 8000 barrels. The well's average for the past week ran 7142 barrels and the gravity of the production continues high, 28. On the Brown property the Petroleum Midway has just landed a string of 1-4 oil strings at 4227 and is making preparations to bring in another big producer. The success of the Petroleum Midway at Long Beach has been nothing short of wonderful. Getting into the field at a time when it looked as though the best properties had been picked, the company's engineers selected properties that have proven above the average on which a number of the field's best wells have been completed. W. H. Fisher has brought in his first real producer at Long Beach. On the Boyer property Fisher completed well No. 2 at 3850 feet and brought in a 1400 barrel well. Just on the eve of completion a twist off occurred leaving a 150 feet of drill pipe in the hole. In spite of the obstruction the well is making a nice production. The screen pipe was set on top of the remaining drill pipe, something that has never been done before. It is possible that after the well has been on production for a while the pipe will be washed loose and it will be possible to go in and remove it. Casa Blanca success at Long Beach last week was measured with a 1100 barrel well. The Casa Blanca Oil Company headed by Tom Donnelly finished its second producer at 3500 feet. The well is producing from the top zone and is making a wonderful showing considering. The Fred B. Foster company is getting ready to bring in its first Signal By Sargum Sprout Louis Angel Firpo, the South American heavyweight, knocked Bill Brennan out in the twelfth round of their fight at Madison Square Gardens. Firpo now has a good chance at a title match with Jack Dempsey by so doing. Brennan did not hurt Johnson while he had Firpo in trouble all the way. Firpe proved large enough and tough enough to take all Bill Brennan could give and have punch enough left to knock Bill out after Bill was exhausted. The way Brennan was able to hit Firpo, Jack Dempsey could land on the South American at will and there is not a man living that can stand up and assimilate Jack Dempsey's punches. The detailed account proved Firpo won from Brennan by brute force, and not by science. The man that takes Jack Dempsey's will have to use science and brute force combined, neither alone will win. Firpo's showing was a disappointment in a way. The public had been lead to believe that he was a finished boxer, but he has proven to possess only glamour and punch, both of which are necessary for a champion, but it will take more to dethrone the present title holder. There is a little chubby youngster of the Brea Speed and Stick Co.'s trucks, that really is instantly what he appears to be, a common truck driver. Anyone that feels healthy and thinks that he can pin this truck drivers shoulders to the seat will find that this truck driver is a whale of a wrestler. He gave Anaheim fans the best exhibition of speed and clean wrestling that has been displayed in this town of ours when the wrestler Rcy Mabee several months ago. Do you remember Orland Miller, the whirlwind from Nebraska? That's the boy and he is located in Brea, and is going to put on some matches in the near future. Miller has been working out right along, besides doing some heavy work.

Co something that has never been done before. It is possible that after the well has been on production for a while the pipe will be washed loose and it will be possible to go in and remove it. Casa Blanca success at Long Beach last week was measured with a 1100 barrel well. The Casa Blanca Oil Company headed by Tom Donnelly finished its second producer at 6500 feet. The well is producing from the top zone and is making a wonderful showing considering. The Fred B. Foster company is getting ready to bring in its first Signal Hill producer. Foster No. 39 was completed at 3270 and being a top zone well it is not thought that it will make any spectacular production, and will make only an ordinary well. Foster company acquisitions for the past week included two wells formerly owned by the Hagar-Denniston interests, Nos. 1 and 2, and the Simplex Petroleum property formerly held by the Vern Dumas organization. The new acquisitions combined with properties previously taken gives the Foster company some wells. The Henderson Petroleum Syndicate is palming on making the Mills well one of the deep test holes of the northwest section of the field. Drilling has passed the 4400 mark and the showings have just been ordinary. The hope of big production for the Mills seems to lie in the deep sands. The Liberty Petroleum Co. headed by Gorb Brothers of Los Angeles is now in the list of producers. Liberty Petroleum No. 1 recently completed at 3535 will oo on production in the upper zone. The well has made an excellent showing on production tests and is expected to make a good consistent producer. The Monrovia Oil Co. met with a little misfortune with its first Signal Hill well. Drilled to 3928 the well was given a production try out and developed water. It is the intention of the company to go into the deep sands and tap the zone that has made the Shell Company's Alamitos wells famous. The Pacific Corporation one of the pioneer developing concerns of the northwest section and northern coast also of Signal Hill has changed ownership. Maysa, Steel and Bell have retired from the oil business. The Pacific Corporation has been one of the most successful of the independent concerns that went into Long Beach when the field opened and been healthy and thinks that we can pin this truck drivers shoulders to the seat will find that this truck driver is a whale of a wrestler. He gave the Anaheim fans the best exhibition of speed and clean wrestling that has been displayed in this town of ours when the wrestler Rcy Maboe several months ago. Do you remember Orland Miller, the whirlwind from Nebraska? That's the boy and he is located in Brea, and is going to put on some matches to the near future. Miller has been working out right along, besides doing some heavy work, and he looks to be stronger and more solid in seas than when he met Maboe. He is about the clearest in the wrestler that ever hit our town and the fans are very glad to have him as a neighbor. POSTPONE FINAL CASABA BATTLE Because of the illness of three of the Chino High basketball players, the final game for the Southern California prep championship between Chino and Huntington Park, which was scheduled for Saturday night, has been postponed until Tuesday. As there are only six players on the Chino squad, they would be unable to put a team on the floor if three of their men were ill. The game will be held in the Univ. of So. Calif., Chino won the right to play in the finals by defeating Pullerton, while the Spartans defeated Alhambra in their semi-final game. made an enviable record for development and production. The new owners of the Pacific Corporation are Los Angeles men. It is understood that the name Pacific Corporation is to continue. When the Shell Company puts Stakemiller No. 2 on production it will not only establish a new record for deep production for Signal Hill but for the world. Stakemiller No. 2 was completed at 5010 feet and is 61 feet deeper than the Amalgamated Oil Company's Huntington Beach record breaker drilled to 4949. Stakemiller No. 2 will undoubtedly make one of the most remarkable wells ever completed in the Long Beach field. The Shell company's most recent completion was a 2600 barrel well flowing 29 gravity off at Nora No. 3. This producer was finished in the deep sand at 4823 feet. The Shell's daily production is now in excess of 40,000 barrels. ANAHEIM MEET Anabaena Hill scheduled to track sound to the local track. Aloumi starred for other will now form pete with the day. J. K. Schumate. "RED" COMES BACK WITH REAL BATTLE (By Sargumi Sprout) Red Mathews came back last night at the Palace de Swat. Red ran smoothly for being in the discard so long. His timing gears were a bit off and a few punches went wild from this defect but he put up a whale of fight against Elmodena's pride, Lee Reece. Lee absolutely refuses to carry a fight to an opponent, but is a corker when a man comes at him. Both boys were in bad on two or three occasions, but both kept about even. Red looked better in the last round when he outboxed Lee, while Lee did the slugging. Two or three fights should put Red back into his old form. A fair-sized crowd attended last night's festivities. The curtain raiser got under way about on time and from that minute on there was something doing all the time. Benny Avery hashed up with Vern Avila in the show opener. They put a very clean, interesting draw. Their performance was far above the average of curtain raisers. Jimmy O'Neill was called on without any preparation to sub for Elmer Trimbal against tough Danny Herera. Jimmy held Danny about even for two rounds and had the fans chirping al over the house. Everyone was greatly surprised when Jimmy refused to come out for the third. Being out of condition he had fought to his limit and had completely blown up. He asked for a return when he can be in shape and the fans would like to see the said return. Tommy Reddy and Tex Jones went one full round without warming up, but Tommy must have caught Tex whining at his (Tommy's) best gift, for Tommy started right in to muss Tex up in the second. Tex got sore and such mauling as the last three rounds contained was never exhibited in Anaheim before. Tex went wild and Reddy fought as we have never seen him before. The final bell found both about out but on even terms. This bout had the fans eruzy. Irish Jimmy Clayton has a fighting name and nothing else. He has not the least idea of what the gloves are OXY FROSH DEFEAT FULLERTON TEAM Coach Joe Pipal's Occidental freshmen track crew edged out a 57- to-56 victory over the clderpath scorchers of Fullerton High in a dual meet held yesterday on the Patterson Field oval. Cliff Allee, speedy Fullerton sprinter, and Herb Morey, Oxy pea-green ace, put up the most sensational race of the day in the quarter. Morey nosing out the Fullerton star by a scant six inches in the rapid time of 51 3-5 seconds. Allee started out in the lead and at the three-quarter mark was in front for fifteen yards. However, Morey kept up a steady pace and overhauled Allee just two steps from the tape. Allee's time makes him a dangerous contender for first place honors in the 440 in both the So. Calif. and state meets. Alleee defeated Morey in the 100-yard dash, being clocked at 10 1-5 seconds, and also won the 220. McDermott took first place for Fullerton in both the high-jump and pole-vault, clearing eleven feet in the latter event. Wall was the high point man for the peagreensers, grabbing firsts in both hurdles and the broad jump. Summary: 880-yard run—Won by Montgomery (O.) Courtney (P.), second.
