UNITED Theatre Anaheim STARTING TOMORROW Sinclair Lewis author of 'Babbitt' and 'Main Street' wrote for 2 days '7th Ghost Patrol' Direct from GRAUMAN'S Million Dollar Theatre UNIVERSAL PICTURE Carl Laemmle RALPH GRAVES BESSIE LOVE Nichols in New Father Role at United Theater In such successful feature productions as "Molly O" and "The Plirt," George Nichols won note as a screen father of big families. In "The Ghost Patrol," the Universal feature which comes to the United theatre Friday and Saturday with an all-star cast, Nichols plays a new father role. As the hearted policeman who spent 30 years on one beat in a tenement district he is loved as a father to every man, woman or child. He reaches a momentous decision, he would not be retired; What happens then and how youth and romance enter forms a story to grip young and old alike.

ATHLETICS FEEL FRISKY THIS YEAR MONTGOMERY, Ala., March 29.—The Philadelphia Athletics, after threatening to make trouble in 1921 and 1922, are just about ready to step. They feel this is their year. That is the training camp outlook. HOWARD SAYS OAKS BETTER THIS YEAR By Ivan Howard Manager Oakland Baseball Club. Written for International News Service. OAKLAND, Mar. 29.—The Oaks are improved in all departments and I firmly believe we will be up there. ATHLETICS FEEL FRISKY THIS YEAR MONTGOMERY, Ala., March 29.—The Philadelphia Athletics, after threatening to make trouble in 1921 and 1922, are just about ready to step. They feel this is their year. That is the training camp outlook. Connie Mack Stands pat on his pitchers and catchers and has added powerful offensive strength without weakening his defense. He feels that if he gets the pitching he could muster last year, he will win many baseball games that then escaped his lean clutch. The additional punch in the offense is expected to be furnished by Wid Mathews in the outfield and $75,000 Sam Hale in the inner works. Mathews, who was Milwaukee's lead offman last year, is booed to play center field in the Mackian combination. "Bing" Miller is a fixture probably inright-field. Miller hit .335 last season and Wid Mathews culled a .333 average. Left field will be disputed by Tillie Walker, Frank Welch and Frank McGowan. Walker has been in the league 12 years and was runner-up to Ken Williams for home runs in 1922, but failed to make the .300 mark. He may, therefore, be ousted from leftfield by either Welch or McGowan and the latter appears to have the better chance. Mack will carry six infielders, Joe Hauser, Jimmy Dykes and Chick Galloway are fixtures at first, second and shortstated, respectively, and Sam Hale and Harry Riconda will battle it out for third. Ecille Scheer will be the safety man for infield emergencies. Offensively, Mack can figure on three infielders and two outfielders who stood high in the .300 class last year. His catching staff of Perkins and Bruggy reeds no introduction and Charlie Rowland, a youngster from the Virginia League, probably will run third to this pair. The pitching staff lists the six regulars of last season, namely, Rommel, Harris, Harty, Naylor, Helmach and Ogden, with the addition of Walter Kinny, a left hander just recently reinstated. ELKS WILL OPEN WITH LONG BEACH Captain Efker of the local team has received the opening night's schedule of the So. Calif., Elks Bowling League. Opponents for the opening night will be Long Beach No. 1 on the home alley. Long Beach won HOWARD SAYS OAKS BETTER THIS YEAR By Ivan Howard Manager Oakland Baseball Club. Written for International News Service. OAKLAND, Mar. 29.—The Oaks are improved in all departments and I firmly believe we will be up there when the final gong rings. Our regular infield will be Lafayette on first; McGraffigan, second; Smith, short, and Brubaker third. Our outfield will be Cooper, Willie and Wetzel catcher. Our catching staff made up of Thomas, Baker and Read, is a fighting, epeppery one which will help to keep the whole team upon its toes. Our pitching staff was strong last season with Arlettt, Kremer and Krause as mainstays. The addition of Malls, star left handler of the Cleveland's world champion team, gives us four top notchers with Colwell and Eley to help out and we have developed two youngsters in Murchlo and Wells who may be taking their regular turns before the season is very old. Besides our regular men we have in Jack Knight, Al Maderas and Osie Johnson, three of the best utility men ever. Knight who had the misfortune of losing a finger last season has come back strong, ready to jump in any time. He is one of the best pinch hitters in the team. Maderas has given Smith a hot fight for the regular shortstop job while Johnson who came to us from the Montana Independent League has been the sensation of the training camp. With these capable substitutes, the Oaks will be protected against possible accidents which have crippled us the last three seasons. At present, pitcher Malls and outfielder Wetzel are on the sick list. Malls may not be able to open with us at Los Angeles but should be ready at home the following week. Wetzel is not seriously ill and may open in left field. SPORTSMEN OPPOSE BIG CUT IN BUDGET The proposed cut of more than $200,000 per year in what sportsmen and market-fishermen have already been putting up in perpetuate fish and game in the State is vigorously opposed by the So. Calif. Rod and Reel club, which has sent a copy of resolutions passed to the Board of Supervisors. The letter was filed today. One of several "whereases" of the club says: "Whereas any action, by destroying our confidence in the prey," said the burglar also locked him in his own apartment. CLASH PREVENTED OVER KU KLUX KLAN ELKS WILL OPEN WITH LONG BEACH Captain Efker of the local team has received the opening night's schedule of the So. Calif. Elks Bowling League. Opponents for the opening night will be Long Beach No. 1 on the home alleys. Long Beach won the state championship at Santa Monica last season and has a strong line-up. There will be 12 teams in the league, all in one division, instead of two as last season. The Anaheim team has a large number to choose from, including Erker, Johnson, Evans, Myre, Dugas, Moore, M. and P. Varner, Yeorn and Graham. ANAHEIM WILL GET INTERURBAN TITLE The Levey and Garrison team from Pasadena failing to appear for their Interurban League match with the Anaheim Alleys team last night, forfeited three games to the locals. This gives the Anaheim boys a record of 29 games won and 18 lost, having a margin of at least four games over nearest competitors. They can not possibly lose the championship as they wind up the championship schedule at San Pedro next Wednesday night. HOLMES & MCGAUGH GRAB FIRST PLACE Holmes and McGaugh rolled into first place in the two-men ragtime on the Anaheim Alleys yesterday when they shot 1195 due to some fine bowling by Holmes who rolled 618.

BIG CUT IN BUDGET The proposed cut of more than $200,000 per year in what sportsmen and market-fishermen have already been putting up to perpetuate fish and game in the State is vigorously opposed by the So. Calif. Rod and Reel club, which has sent a copy of resolutions passed to the Board of Supervisors. The letter was filed today. One of several "whereases" of the club says: "Whereas any action, by destroying our confidence in the present square-shooting methods will surely tear down what we have helped build up into the present satisfactory and typically American system of a representative fish and game government in which we all believe." The resolutions, continuing, say that the work of 20 years would be undone. The club opposes diverting from the "Fish and Game Preservation Fund" any money for purposes other than the licenses were pledged for. Copies of the resolutions will be sent to Governor Friend W. Richardson, and to So. Calif. senators and assemblymen.

CLASH PREVENTED OVER KU KLUX KLAN (By International News Service) LAFAYETTE, La., Mar. 29.—Fights resulting from the reading in the public square of a list of supposed members of the Ku Klux Klan and the posting of a list in suspicious places left this town on edge today.

Such might be the sign hung out by New York landlords during the coal shortage—that is if they know that those South Americans disliked artificial warmth and preferred evening overcoats indoors to maintain heat.

We are less apt to catch cold." Coats are worn indoors. During the winter houses are heated by the burning of charcoal in a brasero. The latter is not much larger than our familiar dish pan.

LOADS OF DEAD MINNOWS IN LAKE The story of the beautiful moth and the flame which dazzled the creature and lured it to destruction has nothing on the sad fate of the minnows of Lake Vadnals. The city is constructing a huge filtering plant on the lake. A large quantity of water is discharged from the stationary engines, and runs into the lake. It has melted the ice where it runs in. Millions of minnows are swarming around the warm water. Lured from the ice cold depths of the lake, they have crowded into the little area that is reminiscent of the welcome summer time. But when the warm area gets crowded until standing room only is at a premium, the minnows die, because they cannot return to the cold water. According to workmen, seven wagon loads of dead minnows were taken from the spot last winter, and the total for this year is rapidly approaching that mark.
