CURRENT SPORTING EVENT ANAHEIM BEATS 2 DOWNEY TEAMS Anaheim's varsity basket-ball players played like professionals last evening when they trimmed Downey, 30 to 25 on the home court. Coach Pitzmorris changed forwards frequently to give all chance. Downey started the scoring and kept up the pace until well towards the end of the first half. The Anaheim boys then loosened up considerably and started the scores their way. Walker, local center, should develop into one of the cleverest ever put out here and with more practice would cause a smile of satisfaction on any coach's face. Sloop is developing rapidly into a good shooter as also are Beatie and Dahlman. The boys are going hard after their games. Downey again bowed to Anaheim when the local skeeter quintet won 23 to 5. Alsip, the blond youngster who is starring in athletics this semester, dropped 8 of the baskets. Woods registered 6. Anaheim's guards are especially strong and kept the visitors from making any great headway. Homer Wallace is coaching this crew and promises to turn out a winning squad. He used a string of men in the fray giving all a chance to display their ability. Ochoa is a real star and showed up good at guard yesterday. He appeared yesterday in his togs for the first time. The lightweight season does not start until Jan. 18 and Coach Wallace is planning to pick out the hardest competition. PLAY FOR NO. CAL. H. S GRID TITLE SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 15... PLAY FOR NO. CAL. H. S GRID TITLE SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 15.—With the high school championship of No. Calif. at stake, Lick-Wilmerding and Lodi prep schools were prepared today for the hardest battle of the present season as game time drew near. With Ewing Field soggy and rain-soaked from the downpour of the past few days, straight line bucking plays were in prospect, altho the fast work out yesterday of the Lodi gridders showed them to be adepts with the slippery ball and liable to uncork a dazzling zerial attack should the going get rough. Today's winner meets the victor in the Long Beach-Bakersfield contest today in the latter city for the championship of California. KEARNS PREDICTS WILLS SOFT MARK NEW YORK, Dec. 15.—Jack Kearns, manager of world's champion Jack Dempsey, was quoted today as declaring that Harry Wills would prove a softer mark for the champion than did Fred Fulton, who was knocked out by Dempsey in eighteen seconds some years ago. "It is only in the east Wills is regarded as a real contender," Kearns said. "In the west, where they have seen him on the floor, they tell us they regard a Dempsey-Wills bout as a joke." LOCAL GIRLS BEAT SANTA ANA J. C. Anaheim girls basketball team won from Santa Ana Junior college last evening by the amazing score of 55 to 8. Two of Santa Ana's players were laid up and subs had to be put in. The game was a good one, from the local's standpoint, and good practice. The skeeters won 21 to 9 from Santa Ana lightweight.

He is rolling tliers as you all know. Every time he see you he wants to know if you know some one that wants a flivver. The next thing we know Roy will be Henry Ford's head salesman. Speaking of wrestlers, the big boy Sharpegge wishes to get before the Anaheim public the worst way and is willing to take on any one for any charitable cause denoting his services free. He would be pleased to tackle Romanoff best two out of three falls any old time. Roy Mabee says that he will wrestle "Boo" Montana for $1000. We advise Roy to wait till spring time when the flowers are all in bloom. FAST TEAM WILL CONTEST SUNDAY The fastest baseball team that has been seen here this season, the Universal Studio All-Stars of Hollywood, will meet the Anaheim Merchants on the local high school field tomorrow afternoon. The Universals are composed entirely of professional Class A league players and should afford the home bugs some real sport.

Walsh) (L. N. S. Sports Editor) NEW YORK, Dec. 15.—Deals by the dozens, long held in abeyance, are expected to follow the restoration of the draft in modified form, between the majoragues and two of the three class A minors, namely, the Pacific Coast League and the American League. Some trades, abandoned a year ago when the minors declined to a party to the draft, will be surrected. Others, discussed formally at Chicago meetings, do not water and serve; six plates such, at any rate, is the composite opinion of Major and Minoraguers, both of whom are anxious to do business immediately even earlier. The New York clubs, which are pleased to claim that a boycott has been placed upon them in the major leagues, are expected tounge into an orgy of bidding on class AA players. The Yankees already are angling for Outfielder Combs and Pitcher Dean the Louisville club, and look for early developments. The Giants are on the trail of live infielder and several pitchers, but are naming no names. In any case, they claim, no salaries will be had with the International League, the remaining class AA member, which has achieved a feeling of independence, and will not play along with the rest of the boys. The International apparently believes that it is self-sufficient but time one will tell. It seems to be the common impression that the organization will climb aboard the band wagon before the end. WIFE OF FAMOUS AUTHOR SUICIDE LOS ANGELES, Dec. 15.—Mrs. Adelaide Manola Hughes, wife of Rupert Hughes, famous author and film director, who committed suicide, according to a brief cablegram from Haipong, China may have ended her life at sea aboard the vessel on which she was traveling to Saigon, China, it was stated here today. While Mr. Hughes awaited additional confirmation today concerning his wife's tragic death after making arrangements to have the body returned to the United States for burial, he declared he was mystified by certain aspects of the case. Mr. Hughes declared that he was expecting a cablegram from his wife upon her arrival at Saigon, China, notifying him of her safe arrival there. In its stead came a brief message from Haipong telling of his wife's death. Mrs. Hughes had not announced she was to stop at Haipong. LOS ANGELES, Dec. 15.—Mrs. Rupert Hughes, wife of the famous author and motion picture director, is dead today in Haipong, China, a suicide, according to a brief message to her husband here. The message to Mr. Hughes telling him of his wife's tragic death, was signed by a Mr. Kirby of the Standard Oil Co. No details of the cause of Mrs. Hughes' suicide were given in the cablegram. However, Mrs. Hughes is believed to have ended her life while in a period of despondency as she is known to have suffered from illness and went to the Orient last August following a major operation. She was accompanied on this trip by her nurse Miss Ruth Renwick, who is now enroute back to the United States. Mrs. Hughes was in Yokohama at the time of the Japanese earthquake but was uninjured. BELIEVE CAPTURE BANDIT GANG HEAD SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 15.—According to Burns agency operatives here who engineered the arrest at Stockton of Arthur (Chicago Freddy) Davis late yesterday, his capture marks the landing of the leader of the bandit gagg which is charged with responsibility for more than a score of bank robberies in Montana alone. Three alleged members of the gang are under arrest in Seattle and in a general roundup under way all over the west it is expected that a score of arrests will be made. Davis was arrested as he applied for a letter at the Stockton postoffice and Burns operatives today were checking as to the possibility that James Mack, arrested in his company, may have been a member of the gang. Mack, the Burns officers asserted, has been photographed in sixteen different prisons. The bank robberies charged against the gang are said to have netted them a quarter of a million dollars in securities and a half million in liberty bonds. Eight arrests were made according to information received at Havre, Mont. The gang is also said to have operated extensively in Canada. FILIPINOS STAGE PEACEFUL PROTEST MANILA, Dec. 15.—The knights of Rizal, a patriotic Filipino organization, today proclaimed Dec. 30 as a day of "peaceful protest" against "campaigns being carried on by the American papers and the American chamber of commerce in favor of the permanent retention of the Philippines or the establishment of a territorial government."

White and Henry Adams of the industrial committee of the Chamber of Commerce, accompanied by Secretary George W. Reid, today made a trip of inspection to the shop which is located in the P. C. Gorall machine shop at 226 South Los Angeles-st. The principal owners of the company are Messrs Haney and Dollar, and their product, an irrigating pump built on a new plan, is in use all over the county. It was shown that one of the pumps in service at Garden Grove for five years, has cost only $12 to keep in repair. It is called the "twin screw irrigating pump." One screw is used to draw in the water at the bottom and the other to push the water up. The ordinary pump works with bowls at the bottom that revolve. Other irrigating pumps are unnecessarily large, according to Reid. The Gorall shop is doing the latine work for the pumps, and the Anaheim Metal Industries (furniture shop) could do the other work, so that the entire manufacture could be accomplished here. The Gorall machine shop recently did a complicated piece of boring for which only $75 was asked, which would have cost $300 in Los Angeles, according to the man who had the work done. Reid pointed out that the foundry, machine shop and pump concern were all established, and it would be a simple matter to develop them into important industries for the city.

LOS ANGELES PRODUCE LOS ANGELES, Dec. 15—But United Offers "SAVED BY RADIO" "Saved by Radio," the new Jacqueline Logan and George Larkin picture, showing at the United Theatre Sunday, Monday and Tuesday is a perfect example of the technique of thrills and action. When Tabe Ruth knocks out a homer in the first inning with no one on base, it's interesting. When he hits one in the fourth with two men on, that's exciting. But when he comes to the bat with four runs needed to win in the ninth inning and clear the bases, that's called something out of the ordinary. But this is largely a matter of choice and happens but once or twice in a season. However, the above theory has recently been applied to the motion picture business. Radio, the most interesting subject of the two continents of today, has been introduced for the first time as a back ground of a moving picture drama. Sometime ago, W. D. Russell wired the head of his producing staff in Los Angeles, "Make a feature with Radio as a background. It will take the country by storm," and the result was "Saved by Radio" with George Larkin and Jacqueline Logan as the featured players. The chief aim of this picture was thrills and action, so if you want to be lifted out of this every day world into a land of romance, excitement where daring situations are the spice of life, don't fail to drop in at the Unitad Theatre and see this premier engagement of "Saved by Radio."
