UNITED THEATER, 306 E. Center SUNDAY AND MONDAY MATINEE, 2:15 P.M. PRICES, 10-25-35 CTS. EARL DERR BIGGER'S FAMOUS SATURDAY EVENING POST STORY FEATURING Mary Carr and Percy Marmont IN 'Broadway Broke' A STORY CRAMMED FULL OF ROMANCE, SUSPENSE, THRILLS, HUMAN INTEREST AND EVERTHING THAT GOES TO MAKE A PERFECT PICTURE PRODUCTION. WITH SPLENDID CAST—GLADYS LESLIE, DORE DAVIDSON, BALLY CRUTE AND MANY OTHERS. HERE IS A HOT ONE! ZEB vs. PAPRIKA THE FUNNIEST HORSE RACE YOU EVER SAW WITH STAN LAUREL LAST TIME TONITE Mary Pickford In her latest picture "DOROTHY VERNON OF HADDON HALL" BIG CROWD SEES CARPENTIER LOSE ARENA, MICHIGAN CITY, Ind. May 31. Official estimate of the seating capacity, like Mark Twain's premature death, having been greatly exaggerated, Georges Carpentier and Tom Gibbons stepped out this afternoon for the honor and glory of international fist-cuffs—and the gate receipts—before a crowd of 28,000 souls, instead of the 40,000 originally estimated. The young men were scheduled to romp ten rounds to a decisionless climax barring the possibility that one or the other didn't so far, forget himself as to become an unduly rough-and end matters hurriedly. The betting, if any, favored Gibbons, a gentleman staking a perfectly good horse against a motorcycle that the American would win. This was tantamount to cage heavyweights in another four rounder. Dave Barry, former boxer, was referee. McDonald reminded some of the ringers of Jeffries. He was so different. Van was entitled to the honors at the end of four gory rounds. Next on the program were Alex Trambitas of Portland, Ore., and Patsy Rocco of Chicago, welterweights. The referee was Jimmy Clabby, old time carpet baggger of the pugilistic profession and a fine fighter in his day. At the conclusion of the second round there was not a seat minus an occupant in the house. Rocco had a shade on Trambitas for the first three rounds, but Alex stopped out a bit in the fourth and earned a slight edge on the session. In the fifth, however, Rocco opened Alex's eye with an accidental butt and then proceeded to carry the pace the rest of the way and gain the decision. Frankie Garcia of Los Angeles Chances were this morning that Thomas would enter the ring a 6 to 5 favorite. Bandages will be applied in the ring before the fight, and bumps, bruises and what-not in the dressing rooms after the fight. The frolic itself has been figured as one of extreme action in the opening rounds, with Carpentier forcing the pace and trying for an early knockout. The Frenchman either ends his fights rapidly or has them ended for him by the opposing gent. It is our idea that, being a strictly one-handed specfman, leading always with his right, he will not be able to hit Gibbons with a vital punch and that the occasion will then resolve itself into a go-as-you-please for the rest of the distance, with Gibbons finally getting to Georges with body punches and earning the popular decision on points. Tom himself lacks aggressiveness but he is not the kind of a flatfoot to be hit often by a cuffs—and the gate receipts—before a crowd of 28,000 souls, instead of the 40,000 originally estimated. The young men were scheduled to romp ten rounds to a decision-limax barring the possibility that one or the other didn't so far forget himself as to become unduly rough and end matters hurriedly. The betting, if any, favored Gibbons, a gentleman staking a perfectly good horse against a motorcycle that the American would win. This was tantamount to giving odds, the writer having seen the motorcycle. Actually, a few small bets were offered and taken at odds of 6 to 5 on Gibbons, the boys having arrived at the conclusion that a red apple is not always a ripe one and that Carpenter's impressive show of outward health might conceal inward discrepancies. It was announced by Fitzsimmons at one o'clock that the total results were in excess of $325,000. The enterprise was a complete sell-out. Fitzsimmons announced in tones of pride and joy. At 1:30 o'clock rain clouds appeared to the south and there was a possibility that the main event might be rushed on in the hope of beating out a possible storm out of a postponement. The first bout was scheduled to go on at 2 o'clock. Mickey Cohen of Kokomo, Ind., who looked like Micky but fought like Cohen, stepped out with Johnny Croak, of Chicago, in the inaugural number of four rounds. To carry out the illusion, Cohen wore green tights and at the end of the first round, a bloody lip. "Put 'em out," shouted a second, but no one knew whether he was talking to one of the principals or the police. It was all very sad. At this juncture some of the restive gents in the general admission section crashed down among the aristocracy. Some few were repulsed with great loss of dignity, if any. The Cohen-Croak tragedy was fairly even for three rounds, Michael showing an educated left and Johnny a disposition to be siege the body in the clinches. A man fainted at the ringside and was carried out before he could explain whether Mickey or Johnny were responsible. Circumstantial evidence was strong, however. At the end Mickey was entitled to the benefit of the doubt, of which there was much. Danny Kahn and Jack McCarthy, both of Chicago put on a caveman act of four rounds in the next encounter, Kahn swarmed all over his man for the few minutes of the opening round but fine fighter in his day. At the conclusion of the second round there was not a seat minus an occupant in the house. Rocco had a shade on Trambitas for the first three rounds, but Alex stepped out a bit in the fourth and earned a slight edge on the session. In the fifth, however, Rocco opened Alex's eye with an accidental butt and then proceeded to carry the pace the rest of the way and gain the decision. Frankie Garcia of Los Angeles, and Patsy Flanagan, of St. Louis featherw-ights, were next in order. Eddie McGoorry, middle-weight star of another day and age, was the official. While the bout was in progress heavy clouds again appeared and the prospect of rain was imminent. Garcia went out to a long lead in the first three rounds, bouncing punches off Patsy's dial at will. Patsy was tough, however, and rallied nicely in the fourth, carrying the fight to the coast entry. It began to rain lightly during the fifth round. MICHIGAN CITY, Ind., May 31—Buck hunting in the wilds of America, by that most worthy of all sharpshooters, Georges Carpentier, began appliciously today when serene skies and 40,000 innocent bystanders appeared on the scene for the scheduled ramp of ten no decision rounds between Carpentier and Tom Gibbons, late this afternoon. It will be quite an occasion for Georges, who dearly loves the American buck. He will track it right into Floyd Fitzsimmon's box office and there claim it as his own. No less than 70,000 bucks will fall before our hero's aim. He never misses. Gibbons will get 30 per cent. of the gross. According to the dispassionate judgment of your humble servant, the unofficial decision will come at the end of ten rounds. The writer looks for no sudden, uncouth ending of the proceedings via the knockout, in spite of panegyrics that have been broadcast concerning Carpentier's marvelous condition. It has ever been our contention that one cannot tell a cream puff by its cover and Carpentier is an elderly gent to be daling with the leather. To the west, however, Georges is something of a new play toy and it responded today by rushing here by special train and motor nearby points various and sundry. The road from Chicago this morning was a one way thoroface, black with motor traffic. Incoming trains poured thousands upon the limited confines of the little resort town. Tom himself lacks aggressiveness but he is not the kind of a flatfoot to be hit often by a man who leads with his right. At that, once might be enough. Round by Round (Continued from Page One) Raising his voice above the din, he shouted the contents of the first message, from Jack Dempsey in Los Angeles, challenging the winner. He wished them both luck and said he was sorry he could not be present. It was said by some that Dempsey's message had been misconstrued and that he had said nothing about meeting the winner. This statement was made by a man who claimed to have seen the original message. The principals were then introduced hand clap. Carpentier was announced at 178 pounds, Gibbons 177. The referee was Emerson Dickerson. In the stage that faced a section of the crowd he said, "Gentlemen, please let us be sports, may the best man win." Carpentier put in the waiting moments arguing with Tilly, Kid Herman, one of Gibbons' seconds. Tom danced about and feinted at his manager, Eddie Kane. When Carpentier stripped for action he wore the French colors at his belt. They were then called to the center of the ring by referee Dickerson to receive their instruction. In attempting to make clear a certain point, Carpentier grasped Gibbons and pushed him rather heavily across the ring. Tom hung on and replied with a similar gesture. FIRST ROUND The bell rang at 4:20. Carpentier led with a light left. Gibbons replied with a a right and left to the body. Carpentier danced away and was short with a left. Gibbons took a right on his shoulder and came back with a left to the body. They sparred. Carpentier led with a right as Gibbons was going away. Tom landed a left hook onto his shoulder. A man fainted at the ringside and was carried out before he could explain whether Mickey or Johnny were responsible. Circumstantial evidence was strong, however. At the end Mickey was entitled to the benefit of the doubt, of which there was much. Danny Kahn and Jack McCarthy, both of Chicago put on a caveman act of four rounds in the next encounter, Kahn swarmed all over his man for the few minutes of the opening round but led with his jaw against a hard right just at the bell. Three rights to the jaw and another to the stomach prompted Kahn to lose some enthusiasm in the second. Between the third and fourth rounds the threats of rain became more sinister, but the promoters had made no announcement of any intention to advance the hour of the main event. The Kahn-McCarthy affair went the limit for no reason at all and McCarthy got our vote. Another bout immediately was put on, instead of the big event, in spite of the threatening weather. Jack Kane of Chicago and Farmer Joe Cooper of Terre Haute, lightweights, obliged. Cooper made human hamburger out of Kane's pan and earned the verdict, popular and otherwise. Next in order were Jack McDonald and Charley Van. Chi- Polychrome Frames FITTED WITH OUR HIGH CLASS MIRRORS SEE OUR DISPLAY SANTA ANA ART GLASS WORKS 1204 EAST FOURTH ST. SANTA ANA THE PLAIN DEALER, ANAHEIM, CALIF. BAPTISTS SCARE JUNIOR HI-YERS The Baptist team put a real scare into the Junior Hi-Y team last night on the Y. M. C. A. field when they led for eight innings only to loose out 10 to 7. Hickey started in the box for the Junior Hi-Y team but was taken out in the fourth and Ochoa held the Baptists to one run for the rest of the game. Very few errors were made by either team and the runs were earned by real hits and real base running. Sweet a new player for the Baptist team, was their heavy hitter, securing three hits out of four tripe to the place. Alsip for the Hi-Y is credited with a perfect record of three hits out of three times at bat, also getting on base two other times, once by a walk and once by an error. The next game is Monday evening between the Senior Hi-Y league leaders, and the Evangelical team. Junior Hi-Y.

This popular club has put on a club championship tournament which has created new interest and brought out increasing numbers for the week-end play. The greens have all been given a liberal coat of sand and fertilizer and under the watchful eye of professional Arnstrong and the coaxing of greenskeeper Joe the course is showing daily improvement. The winners of last week's elimination flight of 18 holes, are paired for this week-end play as follows: R B Wallace and W E Clement; Clyde Newton and Roy Williams; W A Dolan and the winner of last week's postponed match between Kellar Watson, Jr., and E B Collier; J R. Porter and the winner of the Joe Rowley-C. W. Post match also postponed last week because of illness. A ringer tournament is also in progress and at a later date a tournament for the championship of Anaheim and Orange is to be arranged. Pro Walker at Unoco is about his duties again, but still suffering a slight lameness in his right leg. The greens at Unoco have recently been treated with a new coat of sand and oil, slowing them up considerably and the mowing machines appear unable to keep pace with the rapid growth of weeds on the fairways. Walker is one of the few professionals who learned to make club heads by hand. He displayed to our envious gaze a beautiful steel shafted driver the head of which he made from a bowling ball. We've been pinning for it ever since. Arthur Rigby, professional at Orange County club is relieving Arthur Clarkson of the Ranch club. Clarkson left last Sunday for a visit to his old home in Scotland. With the new Orange County course not yet ready for play Rigby was able to re- CARDS AND YALE FAVORED TO CAMBRIDGE, Mass., May Stanford athletes from Californiest from Yale were the orites today when the final held in the 45-annual track field games of the intercollegiate A.A.A.A., in Harvard St., Princeton and the Uni Penn. were conceded an out chance. The Stanford runners stopped exceedingly well under weather conditions in the yesterday when a strong wind made it difficult to ber Stanford qualified 13 and Yale 14. No trials were in the mile and two mile run Stanford placed so well the preliminary heats in the events that it had been caught they will pick up about 29 points not counting the mile run. Stanford has Kerr in the end if he can win at least points in this event. Sta should carry off the title and take the championship to the ciffic coast for the third consecutive year. Yale appears strong enough win 30 points so that she should be close between the ciffic coast and eastern teams. Tagging All Base Babe Ruth pulled a Casey Bat and fanned in the ninth ring with the bases filled, Yankees losing the second to the Athletics 5 to 4 after ning the first six to nothing. The Tigers took both from the Indians, getting the dict, 11 to 7 in the first, and ing a pitcher's battle-, 2 to the second. The Red Sox maintained joint hold with the Yankees first place by breaking even the Senators, dropping the first to 4 and winning the second. **Head by Round** Carpetier landed a right to the body and Gibbons missed a left hook.

Arthur Rigby, professional at Orange County club is relieving Arthur Clarkson of the Rancho club. Clarkson last Sunday for a visit to his old home in Scotland. With the new Orange County club course not yet ready for play, Rigby was able to relieve his nephew without great inconvenience. The greens at the new Orange County course look almost ready for play, but there appears to be considerable work yet to be done on the fairways. We had a look at Palos Verdes course which is to be ready for play within the next month or so. It promises to be one of the finest, sportiest grass courses in the south. Willie Bell is the genius responsible for this new course and Jimmy Fiske will be installed as pro. The loss shattered our hope of being present at the opening of the new Southern Calif. Athletic and Country club course at Lake Elkmore on Memorial Day by doing business as usual. We saw this course under construction last fall and admired the handiwork of John Duncan Dunn, its architect. It is a beautiful grass course at the south end of the lake and should prove a very popular one. Hacienda club, tucked away in the hills, is attracting goodly numbers, the greens and fairways are in excellent condition. This course is only four years old, but it is one of the most promising we have seen. with leaves and rights. They exchanged lefts and rights close in.

BATTLE TO KEEP CONGRESS ON JOB WASHINGTON, May 31 — The insurgent forces which plan to block the scheduled adjournment of congress June 7 had their lines reinforced and cemented today by the return to Washington of Senator Robert M. LaFollette of Wisconsin, his health greatly improved by a lengthy sojourn at Atlantic City. LaFollette planned a series of conferences during the day to check up on the situation and to determine what the chances are of keeping congress hard at it here until agricultural and railroad legislation is acted upon to the satisfaction of the insurgents. Enlisted in the fight to delay adjournment is the "farm block" led by Senator Arthur Gapper of Kansas, who insists that some relief must be afforded the farmers and sees little chance for favorable action on the McNary-Haugen bill creating a $200,000,000 federal export marketing corporation. President Coolidge is opposed to the McNary-Haugen bill and its enactment is extremely doubtful. The bill was before the house again today with a final vote in prespect before night. The bill may pass the house, but the short time remaining in the senate before the date set for adjournment will not be sufficient, according to Senator Capper, to put it thrue. FAIR POSTONED Orange-co. Fair has been postponed until 1925. This action was taken on the assumption that stockmen would be reluctant in exhibiting their prize winning stock this fall even though the foot and mouth disease is practically under control at this time. It is a step in the interest of safety, even though hardly regarded as necessary, and shows how California is safeguarding the farm. PACIFIC COAST LEAGUE W. L. Pet.
