IF NECESSARY ANOTHER SON IN ROYER CONTEST No Longer Danger of Lost Bit and Collar Interfering With Drilling The Standard Oil Co. was busy today cementing off 1025 feet of 15½ inch pipe, preparatory to resuming drilling in its well near Placentia and Wagnerrd. The cementing eff gives the company a fresh start without any further danger of the lost bit and collar interfering with the work. It was declared on good authority today that the company positively would drill if necessary to 5,900 or 6,000 feet in order to satisfy itself once and for all whether there is oil in the vicinity. It is pointed out that the deeper the well is drilled the more conclusive the proof, if there is no oil, that oil is not in the general vicinity. The well at Santa Fe Springs, new past 7400 feet, which the company drilled for test purpose, still is being drilled to determine how long a string of four-inch pipe can be supported. Ninety-eight long pieces of pipe stand in the derrick every time a bit is changed, compared with 11 in the local well. The Santa Fe springs well is said to be the deepest of the sort in the world. The other well is cited here to show that the well in this vicinity has barely more than been started, if a deep field exists. 35 CHORUS GIRLS IN KIWANIS SHOW Thirty-five chorus girls—all tried and true Kiwanians—thirty-five; everything from perfect thirty-sixes to—well, you know a few of the Kiwanians are not that. Dave Jessurun told about it today in his report of the coming minstrel show early in November at the Fairyland theater. Manager Ross of the theater will assist in the production. Proceeds go to complete the kiddies' wading pool. Known as Jas. H. Perry of Utah, According to Notice Filed Today The late General Julian O. Royer had a son, James H. Royer, known as James H. Perry, of Goshen, Utah, according to a notice of appearance and request for special notice during the administration of the estate filed in Superior Court today under Section 1380, California civil procedure. This son or alleged son is declared by his attorneys, a San Pedro firm, to be an heir at law. If so, the fact that General Royer was declared intestate would mean that the fight which has been continued between the family and Marie Feraud, former companion of the General, becomes more complicated than ever. Perry's lawyers ask that he be given special notice of the filing of any papers connected with the estate, including mortgages, statements of accounts, petitions for distribution or partition, notices of further court hearings, etc. In other words, Perry is 'to become an active principal in the fight. Miss Feraud's appeal to the Supreme Court against the decision, setting aside the will which favored her, still is pending. TIE UP SHIPPING VANCOUVER, Oct. 9.—Fourteen hundred longshoremen, members of the International Longshoremen's association, are on strike here today for higher wages.

FULL REPORT OF INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICE—FIRST LEASED WIRE IN ANAHEIM THE ORANGE COUNTY LEADING NEWSPAPER OF NORTHERN ORANGE COUNTY Anaheim, California, Tuesday, October 9, 1923 HTED TRAILER; BADL Busy Today Cementing Off 15 1-2 inc LEADERS OF TEAMS WHOSE EXPLOITS PICTURED ON PLAIN DEALER'S BIG SCO PICTURED ON PLAIN DEALER'S BIG SCORE MILLER HUGGINS, MANAGER YANKS JOHN McGRAW, MANAGER NAVEL SEASON WILL START ON TIME The holiday run of navel oranges from the Anahiem district will start well on time, in the opinion of local packing house managers. The fruit is fully up to its normal in coloring and size and there should be no delay. The first shipments will be made in the new shipping year around Nov. 28 and last until Dec. 7. Newlyweds Taken for Airing on Fire Truck Walter Nichols, a city employee of Fullerton, and Miss Velina Nichols were married late last evening in the office of William Record, city engineer, the ceremony being performed by Judge Wu, French. The two young folks, although of the same name, were not relatives, one being born in the middle west and the other in the Rocky Mountain states. Following the ceremony, the bride and groom were quite roughly handled, being handcuffed, and taken on the city fire truck for a "honeymoon" ride. PROBABLE LINEUP FOR FIRST BATTLE MILLION LOSS FROM RHODE ISLAND FIRE PROVIDENCE, R.I., Oct. 3.—The city's entire fire fighting force was called upon this afternoon to save Providence from the worst blaze in its history. A general alarm was sounded. The fire broke out near the water front. An hour after it broke out the firemen had put out the fire. UN TIME The holiday run of navel oranges from the Ankheim district will start well on time, in the opinion of local packing house managers. The fruit is fully up to its normal in coloring and size and there should be no delay. The first shipments will be rade in the new shipping year around Nov. 28 and last until Dec. 7 or thereabouts, giving the trade time to distribute the fruit for Christmas consumption. There appears to be no likelihood at present of sweating being required to put the fruit into shape. Taking the miscellaneous varieties as a whole, it is now estimated that the crop will not be more than 15 per cent net larger than last season, contrary to the case with valencia, because the miscellaneous varieties are the old trees which do not bear so heavily. A record crop of miscellaneous fruit will not be shipped, therefore again contrary to the valencia crop. Last season was a light one for navels, sweets, St. Mike's and seedlings. Redlands, Upland and parts of Riverside and San Bernardino counties will have heavy navel crops, according to present indications. Neglect of proper fertilizing and irrigation, however, in the past still is a handicap on the navel crops of various sections to the south. FORD FIRST CHOICE SYRACUSE, Oct. 9.—"Henry Ford is the leading choice for president in the state of Washington, as sentiment now stands." That was the declaration made here today by Governor Hart, of Washington. "If nominated at all, Ford would be on the Democratic ticket," said Hart. "No one ever heard him called a Republican. "Magnus Johnson has not much strength in Washington. There is no sentiment for Smith and none for Pinchot. Coolidge is probably the Republican who would win the greatest support. McAdoo is gaining in strength."

B. Transportation Co. Compound fractures above and below both knees and other injuries were suffered by Roy Corry, 38, of Sulivan and First-sts, Santa Ana, last midnight when he ran into a trailer left without lights on the Wintersberg-Huntington Beach-rd. The man was the most fearfully injured of any human being he ever saw, Dr. D. A. Harwood, attending physician at the Community Hospital, said today. Corry has a bare chance to recover, but even if he surmounts the crisis he will have to spend at least 20 weeks at the hospital. He has a wife and three children, and a heavy suit for damages is anticipated against the Long Beach Transportation Co., which is said to be the owner of the trailer. Corry is an oil worker employed by the Nelson Bros. Drilling Co. at Huntington Beach. He was returning home from work at the time, and it is said was taking advantage of a clear highway and driving at top speed. The principal thing in his favor is that he apparently has no internal injuries. But he had lost quantities of blood and was still bleeding just before noon today. The bones are splintered and protrude thru the flesh. BURR CREAMERY CO.
