WINNERS, LOSERS BOTH VICTORIOUS (By a Courage) Did you ever see a contest where the winners won and the losers win? That is what occurred Tuesday night, at the G.A.R. hall, in Santa Ana, when the losers in the membership contest entertained the winners the cof. The winners won the membership contest and the losers made a winning by the class of their entertainment of the winners. Columptil Camp, and Auxiliary of the Spanish War Veterans enjoyed the best entertainment and feed they have had since they were established and that is saying much. Much credit is due the committees of the Camp and Auxiliary and especially to M.C. Cooper, the general chairman of the Camp committee, and to H.G. Miller, the very effective and effusive Master of Ceremonies of the entertainment. Much praise was given to Mrs. Bertha N. Dixon and Mrs. Nannie H. Reed for the good work they performed in obtaining new members, especially to the former, who was presented with a fine amethyst brooch during the evening by the members of the Auxiliary. Mr. May Glaze, of Fullerton, made the presentation speech. The occasion being the sixth anniversary of the marriage of Adjutant Charles E. Dixon and Bertha N. Dixon. They were taken in charge by Mrs. Glaze and "Big Dan" Mears and marched to the head of the lodge room where "Bishop" W.W. Tantlinger was enthroned and he proceeded to perform a second (mock) marriage of the happy couple. His style of delivery is much improved since he performed a like ceremony for Officer of the Day M.C. Cooper and his good wife. He also used two rings for this marriage: one was a fruit jar ring which was placed on the thumb of the groom and the other was a garter which the groom was compelled to place properly on the bride. However the second ring was too large and slipped down over the bride's shoe. There was a guessing contest on a jar of small beans. There was 796 NO BODIES FOUND IN BERKELEY FIRE BERKELEY, Sept. 20.—A search of the ruins of Berkeley's burned district today had failed to reveal any dead and city authorities expressed belief that one rumors that lives were lost in the $10,000,000 fire would prove unfounded. So-called "missing lists" made up of inquiries for persons in the burned district dwindled today as families and friends were reunited. The military guard was to be withdrawn today and the city police will take over the duty of guarding the ruins against looting. Chimneys are being dynamited and debris removed. The devastated district will be rebuilt as a "mouel" home district and the city may assist home owners thru purchase of materials at cost. COUNTY MAY SEND 100 VET DELEGATES Orange county is planning a delegation of from 100 to 150 men at the national Legion convention at San Francisco next month, it was announced today, following a meeting of the national convention committee of Orange county, yesterday at Santa Ana.

The attendance was so good that extra tables had to be set and the guests voted that it was the best feed given by the Spanish War people. After the banquet Mr. Rob Bradford again entertained with songs and everybody went home in a happy state of mind. The winners declared that the losers "spread" themselves entirely too much. It was the costliest meeting we have enjoyed and those who did not attend missed much. DOESN'T EXPECT WORKERS' EXODUS Revealing that practically all local journeymen's unions, particularly of the building crafts, have gained approximately 100 per cent in membership the last 12 months, C. C. Conkle, representative of Painters' Union, No. 1136, declared there would be no substantial exodus of painters from north Orange county in the rebuilding of Berkeley and other cities of the north. Floaters will be attracted north, and they are union men, but their membership never has been sought here, says Conkle. The bulk of the local union men own or are buying homes, and aren't inclined to pick up and move on any pretext. The peak of the building activity in the north, Conkle believes, will be reached before next spring. Construction workers, carpenters, plumbers, electricians, painters, in the order named, will be in demand. Back from a tour of his district which includes, Pomona, Ontario, and other cities of the San Gabriel valley, as well as north Orange county, Conkle says large activity is the rule in the building and other lines. TODAY IS YOM KIPPUR Today is Yom Kippur, the Jewish Day of Atonement. The celebration actually began last evening at sun-down and ends this evening.

Basing their action upon the declaration of George L. Berry, international president of the pressmen's union, who branded the strike an outlaw, the newspaper owners have served notice upon that they will not deal with the webb pressmen's union, local No. 25, and would await his promised action to revoke the charter of this local union and to charter a legal union. The statement of publishers was to be presented to the striking pressmen at a meeting this afternoon. Pending Berry's decision, held in abeyance while efforts are made to effect a compromise, the publishers said they would continue to print papers as they are now doing—in combination morning and evening form. These combinations are still in 8-page form and the only advertising is that of amusement houses. Papers from Philadelphia and elsewhere are being rushed here, but only to a small degree are they filling the need of the millions of readers.

In order to interest farmers in producing the kind that make the big gains in weight on a minimum of feed, the Los Angeles chamber of commerce has solicited a considerable sum of money to be applied as added premiums at the Los Angeles county fair at Pomona, Oct. 16 to 20. Part of the money will be used as special prizes on fat steers, wethers and barrows. Some will be for beef calves owned by Calf club boys. The balance will be pro-rated on the prize money offered by the fair in the beef breeding classes. 1000 FIRE FIGHTERS OPPOSE WOOD BLAZE SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 20.—During the night 1000 fire fighters in relays of 250 each battled a stubborn forest fire in Marin county, which threatened the entire La Guitas section, including three towns. Early today the blaze was slowly being brought under control, but there was still danger of a fresh outbreak. Other smouldering fires on Bolinas ridge and near Alpine lake were being closely watched. While still burning, a score of other northern California forest fires continued under control, and the number of fire fighters was considerably reduced today, as the danger passed. In Sonoma county two fires are still active, and in Lake and Mondoino counties they are raging with considerable violence. Lil' Gee Gee adds that some of the bungalow court caves are so small there isn't room enough for a complaint. FOR RESULTS—Try a Plain Dealer Want-ad. HUDSON PRICES Speedster ..... $1295 7-Pass.

This is distinctly not the case. To buy on this basis would be an injustice to yourself. You can pay several hundred dollars more than the Light-Six price and get a car that represents no greater, if as great, intrinsic value as the Studebaker Light-Six. Or you can pay about the same price as the Light-Six, or less, and get a car that is high-priced when compared with the Light-Six because it does not represent as much for the money invested. And in the Light-Six you enjoy all the advantages of smooth, flexible, dependable, six-cylinder performance. You get a beautiful, substantial, well-built, roomy and comfortable car. The practical absence of vibration in the Light-Six is a notable achievement. It is due largely to the fact that the Light-Six crankshaft and connecting rods are machined on all surfaces. This is an exclusive Studebaker practice on cars within hundreds of dollars of the Light-Six price. Stop in and see the 1924 Model Light-Six. Test it for yourself—drive it and make your comparisons. Driving is believing. After seventy-one years of service the name Studebaker enjoys confidence and respect more than ever. Model and Prices f. o. b. Orange Co.
