GAY BANNERS LEND FESTIVE AIR TO THIRD REGATTA SANTA BARBARA, July 17.—Flying vivid colored burgees of yacht clubs from Vancouver to San Diego, various classes of racing yachts, including sea mews, schooners and express cruisers, opened the second day's program of the third annual regatta of the So. Calif. Yachting Ass'n here today with the first neats over a triangular course off the beach. The effair was marked by the first of a series of famous 6-meter races which proved the sensation of the 1922 yachting season on the Atlantic coast. The general inspection was postponed until Friday afternoon, at which time the entries in the fourth trans-Pacific-Honolulu race will be looked over before the start of the season's greatest race. Tagging All the Bases With all the customary sparkling pessimism, the Giants split a twin bill with the Chicago Cubs, 7, to 4 and 3 to 1. Bentley accounted for the second win. A seven run rally in the third frame was too much for the Pirates, the Robins winning 8 to 4. The Cardinals got to Philly pitchers for 22 hits and gained an easy 13 to 7 victory. Coveleskie's pitching gave the Cleveland Indians a six to nothing shutout over the Yankees in the first Kearns May Reject Rickard's Bout Offer NEW YORK, July 17.—Jack Kearns, manager of Jack Dempsey, world's heavyweight champion today is "thinking over" Tex Rickard's offer to stage a meeting between Dempsey and Louis Angel Firpo in Argentine in October. Fight fans predicted Kearns would turn down the offer. Rickard's hope is that the fight would draw an $800,000 gate—half to go to Dempsey—if staged in South America. Kearns believes Dempsey in his next appearance, will draw a $1,500,000 house if the fight is staged in either New York or Jersey City, and was expected to so inform Rickard today. Failure of Rickard to get Dempsey's name to a contract to fight Firpo will result, it is believed in Kearns signing up for a match with Harry Wills, negro aspirant to the heavyweight crown, the battle to be staged at the Yankee Stadium here on Labor Day. Charley White, loudly claiming that he is the logical opponent for Benny Leonard at this time, will battle Ritchie Mitchell in a 15-round bout here tomorrow night. White is favored in the betting. Monday night will see Leonard in action against Lew Tendler at the Yankee Stadium. Promoters today says $25,000 worth of tickets already have been sold and predict another $100,000 before the gong sounds. Fans have paid in $200,000 more for seats for the Gene Criqui-John Dundee contest, which is set for July 26 at Polo Grounds—a record price for featherweight contests.

Just a few more weeks and every school in the land will be all astir. Thousands of America's best will be straggling for a "place on the team." Our own Anaheim, as a football hero has never set the world afire. This season they tell me will see almost a new team representing A. U. H. S. Some of the "Skeeter" will graduate into real football players and there are some new talent coming in with the few holdovers of last year's squad it is hoped that the A. U. H. S. will have the best team in the field of her career. Our own Elk B. B. team is headed for another state championship. They have been able to take the number of all comers so far. With the same line up of last year and with old Harry Hughes getting better and better with age, the other teams of the league are up against a hard proposition in trying to deprone the local Billis. William Tilden, Jr., defeated the Spaniard, Manuel Alonso at Indianaapolis Sunday for the American tennis title. Tilden was defending his National title. Alonso won over Tilden in Chicago last week but when it came to real championship contest Tilden showed the real American paint and routed the foreigner.

Old silent Ad Santel is perfectly willing that Jim try the flying hold on Ads tousled head, but Jim is not willing to take a chance as yet. Al Gustavo, who wrestled Orland Miller at Fullerton the other evening is not wrestling for love or money but because he thinks wrestling gave him a new lease on life when the sun had about set. No one watching his work the other evening would dream that he was once an invalid. He claims at the age of twenty he was a wreck with doctors fixing his time on earth from a few days to a few months. That was sixteen years ago and Gustavo today looks to be in perfect health and it was all brought about by his taking to wrestling and the training that wrestling requires. Roy Mabee is another believer in the benefits derived from the mat game. Of course championship contests are very hard work for the time being but the athlete is usually in time to stand it without any ill effects. As in all other sports there is danger of an injury, but we take those chances in every day life. Wrestling with the rough stuff cut out is really a great help to those that need exercise and the most of us need that in some parts of our bodies.

AQUATICS TENNIS GOLF NEW YORK FEARFUL FOR WORLD SERIES (By Arthur Struwe) (I. N. S. Staff Correspondent) NEW YORK, July 17.—The dream of New Yorkers of again seeing a world's series of their own is rapidly becoming a nightmare these days. While the Yankees are sailing along on a smooth sea to "Pennant-ville," the Giants are finding the going very rough and unless they take a decided brace will find themselves shipwrecked. The Giants have 71 more games to play and fifty of them are with the western teams. To date, the Giants have played their western rivals 38 games, and of these have only annexed twenty victories. When the Giants went west on their last trip they had what appeared to be a commanding lead, but they fell by the wayside and came home barely in first place.

Cane sugar, which yesterday had declined 50 cents to $9.25 over the prices which had prevailed up to Saturday, today rose 25 cents to $8.50. Manager William C. O'Connor of the Seelig Store, who provided the information, declared that sugar had been on the downward trend since June 15 or before. On that date, it descended from $10.50 to $10.30, while the mark of $9.75 was first reached on July 10. O'Connor said he couldn't understand why prices of $3.40 for cane sugar and $6.40 for beet could be offered by the California-Hawaiian Sugar Refining Co., in Mid-West territory, when California was paying PRETTY YOUNG GIRL PASSES BAD CHECKS OAKLAND, Calif., July 17.—Mrs. Louise Vestal, pretty young woman, who gave Marion, Ohio, as her home and claims she is a cousin of Geo. Christian, secretary to President Harding, was arrested early today at her Hotel Oakland apartment and is being held at the city prison on a charge of passing worthless checks. A short time later Frank Brown, who she declared persuaded her to leave Columbus, Ohio, a year ago, was arrested when he arrived from San Francisco in response to her telephone summons. Detectives said she admitted the worthless checks passed would aggregate from $10,000 to $15,000. R. H. E.

LaHabra's big paving contract, Road Improvement District No. 22, was awarded to George R. Curtis of Los Angeles for $205,000. The contract provides for the widening to 40 or 50 feet, from curb to curb of Central-ave, Hyatt, Walnut and Cypress-sts. Ocean-ave will be paved. The improvement is one of the most elaborate yet undertaken in the county in the smaller cities. Bids for Buena Park's water district bonds will not be received until next week, following a vote to continue the matter again. SUIT TO FORECLOSE Suit of foreclosure on contract and to quiet title was filed today by John Klemm against Stephen Goltia, Helen Bustamenta and Manuel Goltia. The suit involves Lot No. 29, Block B in the Lorelei tract here. The defendants failed to pay the taxes, and are deficient in other payments, says the plaintiff. Tipton & Callor are Klemm's attorneys. SUICIDES WITH GAS It was uncertain this afternoon whether an inquest would be held in the death of J. A. Farnsworth, street sweeper of Whittier, found dead Sunday. A wrench and flashlight were found beside the body, and the police are convinced he committed suicide. Farnsworth formerly worked for the Morago Fumigating company, in whose building he was found, and apparently had removed the cap from a fumigating drum and died from effects of the gas. Practically all taxicab calls in Europe are by persons hailing machines from the curb, in the United States 90 per cent are by phone.

The case is expected to go to the Jury Thursday or Friday. The first trial resulted in a disagreement. Headphones can be made more comfortable by cutting a piece of canvas three-quarters of an inch wide and one and one-half inches longer than the distance from one adjusting screw to the other. Fasten the canvas to the adjusting screws and this will leave the weight of the phones and headbands rest on the canvas strip, and the operator can listen in comfort.
