SECOND SECTION 26TH YEAR NO. 239 LOCAL GIRL MAKES U. S. RECORD A new American record has been set and a prep record slashed as the result of finals in the telegraphic meet recently staged. Miss Frances Adams, brilliant flash, set a new mark when she made the broad jump at a distance of 16 ft. 7 in. This betters the old mark by two inches. Anaheim's crack relay team traveled the oval in 27 seconds, shattering past marks. The team members were Misses Frances Adams, Ella Cook, Elsie Lange and Catherine Mena. As far as records have been checked Anaheim takes second in the telegraphic meet with 29 1-4 points. Eurke is first with 30. Bakersfield third with 20; Florida state, 19 1-2 and Pennsula League 8. These schools held individual track meets last week and the results were telegraphed to headquarters at Modesto where a state check was made. Anaheim girls placed first in baseball and basketball threw, broad jump and relay, tied in the 50-yard hurdles and placed second in the hundred. Lincoln HI made second in the discus and Florida state set a new mark by heaving the discus 87 97 7. Shot 3 Times, Sees Partner Dig Grave LOS ANGELES, May 28—Shot three times and almost fatally wounded during a quarrel with his partner, Alexander McCoskey of Lancaster, lay almost helpless in a pile of brush today while he watched his semiflant dig a grave for him, and then by a supreme effort managed to escape the vigilance of the grave digger and crawled to safety at a ranch house, a quarter of a mile away. Several hours later C. H. Converse, 50, of Los Angeles, was arrested by deputy sheriffs near the grave and brought to this city. McCoskey was rushed to the county hospital here where surgeons performed an operation in an effort to save his life, though he was said to have little chance for recovery.

At the conclusion of the meet, proceeding the announcement of the winners of the meet, a mass flag drill will be staged under the direction of Mr. Victor E. Teansy and a formal retreat will be played by the band. This promises to be one of the most exciting days for the boys of Orange County that has ever been held. Troops have been planning and training for several months. The two bands will be in attendance during the entire performance. Judges and officials include F. C. Blauer, Alex. Brownridge, Dr. Roy S. Horton, Dr. M. A. Patton, Dr. Harvey Stryker, Willard Smith, A. B. McCord, Waldo O'Kelly, S. C. Hartranft, and other scout officials. "WHITE ARK" SAILS FOR UNITED STATES OLONGAPO, P. I., May 25.—Probably the most heterogeneous collection of humanity ever embarked for a trans-Pacific voyage today beneath a beaming tropical sun wended their way aboard the U.S. Army Transport Merritt, which will be their "ark" to carry them to America—their promised land. They are the $65 remaining souls of the band of 8,000 that fled red Russia last winter with Admiral Stark on the famous "white" fleet. All ranks of society are represented among the fugitives from peasant to ex-leutenant general of the Imperial Russian army. They are clad in every imaginary costume from the primevial gee string of their Philippine hosts to gorgeous gold laced uniforms. In the strong company are 100 women and 30 children. Cupid has been busy during the stay of the Russians at Olongapo, 25 marriages having been recorded—two yesterday. Colonel Munson, personal representative of Governor General Wood, who is directing the embarkation, today completed a vocational census of the party. It revealed 226 mechanics, 96 farmers, 48 men, 37 firemen, 28 fishermen, 19 navigating officers, 18 electricians, 16 motor mechanics, 13 radio operators and five cattle raisers. In addition there are five bee keepers who likely will have the least to do during the voyage of the Merritt to San Francisco. Four nurses, however, will likely have their hands full as the stork is hovering over six families. HART SAYS NOTHING LOS ANGELES, May 25.—William S. Hart, today declined to comment on the statements of Miss Elizabeth MacCaulley of Brookline, Mass., a Wellesley graduate, exonerating him of her previous charge that he was the father of her child. "I would like to say something," Hart said, "but the matter is entirely in the hands of my lawyer, James H. Scarborough."
