Calif. 139-pound basketball title by a 13 to 8 defeat by Auaheim last night on the local court. This was the first round of the semi-finals. Dargatz, the star center, easily got the tip off and action started from then on. After considerable passing the ball from one end of the court to the other, Colton threw the first point, made by a foul on Sweeney. Their second and third scores came from fouls and so it was throughout the game. The locals were in the best of condition and showed the effects of training by their coach, L. E. Sutherland. Sweeney played an AI game yesterday and knocked down the majority of points. He also succeeded in breaking up many plays. Giss is one of the best guards ever turned out at Anaheim. He and received many cheers last night. The score was a 5 to 5 tie at the end of the half. The Anaheim lads played together perfectly. Lawrence Sweeney, curly headed forward, played a game that would make any college star jealous. Altho he was called down for making fouls, he broke up Colton plays repeatedly. He had a powerful throw and was able to place the ball anywhere on the court. Sweeney is a long distance shooter when it comes to trying for the basket and usually gets what he goes after. Sweeny had the opportunity to play on the varsity team but decided to play with the lads of his class. Sweeny has been high point man of every game. He is a sophomore. Merlin Swarthout, who co-star with Sweeney, was at his best. He was put in for Giss in the Block Burns in Film Spectacle One of the most stupendous fire spectacles ever offered will be seen at the United Theatre tonight and Saturday matinee and night. It is one of the sensational scenes in the highly dramatic super-production, "The Midnight Alarm." In "The Midnight Alarm" is shown the destruction by fire of an entire block of buildings, including a six-story structure. This was one of the most costly structures ever built for the sole purpose of destruction, and was kept with the policy of David Smith, Vintagraph director, that nothing be shown unless it was realistic and that fakes and the like be barred. The spectacle was so tremendous in scale it was necessary to obtain the permission of the Los Angeles authorities to carry it out, because of the danger of the flames spreading to the studio structures. Five thousand persons witnessed the destruction of the buildings and played a part in the picture. The crowd was so dense special precautions had to be taken to prevent onlookers from being injured. The fire had to be roped off, while a crew of pickled guards and police kept the throng within bounds. The chief danger was the menace of onrushing fire apparatus. Nine cameramen protected by safety shields in vantage points clanked as the flames progressed and the film fire brigade battled it. With the flames locking their extra pump lines from the studio reservoirs. Throughout the night the fireman worked to extinguish the blaze. They were menaced by the falling timber of the structures, and many of them sustained cuts and bruises. The filming of the fire was hailed on all sides as one of the most gigantic feats ever accomplished for the screen. HOLD WOMAN ON LIQUOR CHARGE Mrs. A. P. Hamilton of the Marita-Apts. on No. Clementine-st was arrested last night by police on the charge of having liquor in her possession.

This first round of the semibut, the star center, easily up off and action started on. After considerable ball from one end of to the other, Colton first point, made by Sweeney. Their second scores came from fouls it was throughout the courts were in the best of and showed the effects by their coach. L. E. Sweeney played an yesterday and knocked majority of points.

Swarthout, who co-stars Sweeny, was at his best, but in for Giss in the SARGUM PROUTINGS Norman Boeckel died of injuries received in an auto collision on the Torrey Pines grade. Boeckel was one of the stars in the baseball world. As a third baseman he had few equals; as a real sportsman and gentleman he was in that select class that has drawn about them a nation-wide circle of admiring friends. "Tony" was the mala cog in the Boston Braver' infield. His team has lost a great player and the baseball world has lost one of the game's best sportsmen. Louis Angel Firpo has the sport writers riding him once more. Firpo is drawing down the money whenever he gets the chance. All other stars in the sport world are receiving big money signing articles for the sport pages so Louis Angel wanted in on the good thing and he set his price, but it was so high that it left the sport writer nothing for his cut. Now the writers are panning Louis aplenty but he is receiving advertising just the same and it is costing him nothing. Me thinks the "Bovine of the long grass" is wise. When he faces Willis next summer, it will be before one of the greatest hordes of fight-mad fans yet assembled and half of thesemblage will be there with the hopes that the big black man will knock Louis Angel for a row of alley junk. If Willis should happen to best Firpo, the South American could return home and settle down in ease. If he gets by Willis the Dempsey scrap that is sure to follow will just add to the Firpo fortune a little more.

Feb. 23—Broadway sharpshooters think nothing of Farmer Lodge's chances against Frait-arm Luis Firpo in Buenos Aires, tomorrow night, but almost to a man they are disposed to shoot a rareless dollar on Erminio Spalla, provided the odds are right. Erminio is to follow the farmer into the ring against Firpo in less than two weeks and they do say that an excellent time will be had by all. Spalla, heavy weight champion of Europe, fought around New York several years ago and the impression he gave was of a tough citizen who brushed his teeth with a file. Luis is said to have waxed indulgent since the memorable night of Sept. 14 and is not believed to be the same man who cast Jack Dempsey out among the gentlemen of the press. There is one consideration that restrains the local tendency toward speculation on the Spalla fight, to wit: No man cares to be 3,000 miles away from the action his dollar may get. There being no evidence of betting on the fight in this vicinity, it would be necessary to select a commissioner in the Argentine for this business and the risk is not worth the reward. Firpo has been resting since the Dempsey occasion and resting with Luis means eating and sleeping. Photographs drifting north from the Argentine show him with the paunch of an ex-brewer. He is said t woeigh upward of 230 pounds, 15 pounds heavier than the night he faced Dempsey. That if, really, means so much less speed, and Luis never had too much pressure should stay very tonight "Dick" B PLAYING FRIDAY SATURDAY greatest hordes of fight-mad fans yet assembled and half of the assemblage will be there with the hopes that the big black man will knock Louis Angel for a row of alley junk.

If he gets by Wills the Dempsey scrap that is sure to follow will just add to the Firpo fortune a little more. With the Cub youngsters at the trailing camp at Avalon and the Seal babys doing their stuff, the 1924 ball season is established. It is only a matter of days till all our big diamonds will be cluttered up with high priced baseball material. Our local Merchant team will loose many of its members to the training camp. Makin, O'Reilly, Best, Ruedy and Bush will answer the call soon. There are steps being taken to maintain a fast club despite the loss of so much talent. One big boost to the local outlook is reappearance of Billy Knott as manager. Billy is there when it comes to handling a baseball club and it is an assured fact that Anaheim will have a winning team in the field as long as Billy is at the helm. Next Sunday Best may or not be on the firing line. All depends on the date of his reporting for training. If he has not started for camp before Sunday he will do his bit to take the deciding game from the Beanpickers. This series has worked more enthusiasm than any since Pasadena with Manager Ury staged its last stand. The local crew is going down to Beantown with vengeance and next Sunday's battle is bound to be a hot one. Poor old simple Joe Jackson has allowed himself to be pulled into deep water by smart lawyers and the courts. He won his case against the White Sox for back pay, but was at once bound over for perjury by the court. Joe's testimony before the Chicago grand jury of 1919 does not lobe with the present case. It is the general opinion of the fans that Joe was a victim of circumstances. His illiteracy and ignorance in the business world made him the target of the band of schemers. Of course he was guilty of falling, but those who knew him say that if he had been better informed he would not have fallen. There is nothing in his playing record that gives witness of his throwing games and those who watched the 1919 world's series say that they believe Jackson was doing all in his power to win for his team. He was the individual star of the Sox team during the series that almost disrupted organized baseball. It is not believed that "Shoeless Joe" fully realized what he was doing when he accepted the bribe money. Anyway, Joe had better greatest hordes of fight-mad fans yet assembled and half of the assemblage will be there with the hopes that the big black man will knock Louis Angel for a row of alley junk.
