UNITED THEATRE 306 East Center — Tonight and Tomorrow — Regular Prices — A Big Tremendously Human Story— "RIDERS UP" WITH— Creighton Hale and Ethel Shannon Its Romance will Thrill You—A "sure thing" for good entertainment. COMEDY NEWS MARKET MOVING SOLIDLY FORWARD NEW YORK, July 1.—The upward movement in the stock market underwent considerable broadening today. The oils were the first to move solidly forward in response to the recent improvement in the oil situation. Coenol oil was the leader of the independent oils, advancing nearly 2 points to 59%. California Petroleum made a point at 231 and Standard of California was fractionally higher. The early market dragged somewhat when the rally was fairly launched, it moved forward at a good pace. American Can went to a new high for the present movement at 216% and Colorado Fuel was purchased at 47%. A sharp movement in the stocks and bonds of Wilson & Co., followed reports that prospects for the refinancing of the company without receivership have improved. The convertible sixes sold up at 67. The 7½s of 1931 were up about 12 points at 61 and the common stock 2 points up at 6%. Rates for time loans again contracted to 3½ per cent. GREAT RACE TRACK STORY AT UNITED Gerald Beaumont's famous Red Book story, "Riders Up," a colorful romance of the race track, featuring Creighton Hale, Ethel Shannon, George Cooper, Kate Price and a big cast, will be the feature at the United tonight and tomorrow. "Riders Up" is a tremendously human story of love and romance, with a thrilling climax. Unbeknown to his widowed mother and his young sister, who lives in the little New England village, where he was born, "Sure Thing Johnny" has become a race track tout. For several years he has been promising his mother that he will come home, right away—just as soon as he has completed a big business deal. After many disappointments, and some weeks of particularly hard luck, he chances upon some information that brings undreamed of wealth to himself and friends. He prepares to go home, bids goodbye to his friends, but decides to do a last favor to General Jeff, an old friend who is about to enter the Old Soldiers' Home, and takes him to the track. There the inevitable happens, not to Johnny, but to his aged friend, and once again the visit home is off. But compensation comes to reward Johnny in two ways, and so this story of understandable human humor and has a name. ROY MABEE BACK WITH VENGEANCE By Sorgum Sprout Our Roy Mabee came back last night. True, he was not the dashing, peppy Roy of a year ago, for he is carrying a lot of excess baggage about the waist line and he has not had time to bring his wind up to a place where he can go at top speed for any length of time. Roy has lost none of his cunning during his vacation, in fact he seemed to wrestle by his wits more than ever last night. The fast stepping Mortensen could not get Roy into trouble with any kind of hold. Fred's best bet was the head scissors which he was able to clamp on several times but with little damage. Roy displayed a lot of clever stuff, both with his legs and hands. Fred's speed was dazzling at times but Roy was able to keep out of the way and let the Dane run down. The Dane's cleverness and speed all went for naught for Roy was the master, the old fox that was on to all the Dane's tricks and then some. Roy used a multitude of arm locks, all of the Nelson family of holds, his face locks that no one can put on with the grace of Roy, headlocks and various other holds to weaken the Dane down. For pin holds he tried an arm strangle, a couple or arm keys and a couple of head scissors; the third head scissors hold and the Dane dined enough, the fall coming in 27 minutes. The second fall came with the same hold after 7 minutes of fast milling. There has been only one man able to break Roy's head scissors when perfectly applied and that was Santel. Last night the first one started a cut in the Dane's left eye and bruised his nose; he last one started Fred's under lip to part company with the gum. If you do not believe that those spindle shaped hands of Roy's do... A sharp movement in the stocks and bonds of Wilson & Co., followed reports that prospects for the refinancing of the company without receivership have improved. The convertible sixes sold up at 67. The 7½ of 1931 were up about 12 points at 61 and the common stock 2 points up at 6%. Rates for time loans again contracted to $½ per cent.

ROLLED EFFECT USED ON PLEATED FROCK AND CAPK A lot of stuff Miller is able to use on other wrestlers will be useless against Roy. Roy is too wise to be tricked as most wrestlers are. Roy has holds that would hold Strangler Lewis if properly applied. The question will be, will he be able to land Miller in one of these holds? There is no question but that Miller can outlast Roy if he can stay away from Roy's damaging holds. Miller is in great condition and his age will aid him to go on and on while Roy's endurance has a limit. Be that as it may, the coming Miller-Mabee match is going to be a dinger. It looks to be the greatest match, bar none, that was ever staged in our section. In the boxing prelims last night, Specks Funquay was far too many for Del Davis. Specks took every one of the three rounds and was unruffled at the close while Davis was badly shaken up. Byron Mast and Pete Davis did three rounds of something whether it was cake-walking or war dancing we were unable to decide. Jimmy Heffron said that it was a no-decision affair because there was nothing to decide. Pauky Gillette was caught out of condition by Billy Hogan and was knocked out in the main go of the boxing show. This Hogan is a fighting fool and won cleanly but if Gillette was in condition it would be a question as to who was who. Gillette was knocked cuckoo right off the reel, being floored with a well timed blow to the button, and he was dazed all through the first round. He did some good work in the second round, making it even. Hogan had a big lead in the third and knocked his man out in the fourth. These boys in a re-match would be a big drawing card in themselves. All in all it was a NEW YORK CITRUS NEW YORK, July 1.—Thirty-four cars valencias, one car sweets, nine cars lemons and one mixed car sold. Market higher on valencias. Lemon market 50c lower.

HAS GOOD CHANCE TO WIN By MLLE SUZANNE LENGLEN French Woman Tennis Champion (Co爵ight) 1924, by International News Service) LONDON, July I.—America appeared today to have an excellent chance of winning the men's singles championship as the second week's play in the Wimbledon tournament got fully under way. Prophecies are dangerous, so I will not predict, but I am hopeful that one of my countrymen will win thrush to the finals. This hope was strengthened by the victory of Rene La Coiste over Jean Washer, the Belgian champion. To go back a few days, the feature of Saturday's play was the victory of Washer over Norman E. Branks, the Australian veteran. Washer's high kicking service and lightning drives across and down the sidelines and center and his vigorous smashes were unanswerable. Intolerable and unrecoverable. Brookes at times could not see them. The Australian volleyer fought courageously but without avail but all Washer's strength and quickness were without avail against an opponent as agile and as powerful as himself when he met La Coiste. It was a broad moment for French devotees of the game. I was most interested in the mixed doubles match between Randolph Lycte and Miss Elizabeth Ryan against P. D. Z. Spence and Miss Jeanne Austin. I could not help laughing at Lycte, he played so badly at the start. Miss Ryan had to be the "man" and Lycte "wore the skirts," so to speak. Lycte trotted about at the back court like a flapper. It was no wonder Miss Ryan was nervous, but she and her temperamental partner won anyway. NORRIS WILLIAMS With many of the principals coast and So. Calif., officials of the Willys-Overland Co. present—to 18 are coming—the Jumping Overland will give its final exhibition tonight in City Park with K.E. Kirkham at the wheel. The car will be decorated in red, white and blue with flare lights behind it, with no other light in the vicinity, is expected to present a remarkable spectacle as it makes long leap thru space. The exhibition will start at 8:30 o'clock. Among the officials coming to J. F. McCracken, branch manager at Los Angeles; Roy G. Stuaul wholesale manager on the Pacific coast; Ernie Culver, western manager; and the two wholesmen who accompanied Kirkham the driver, Messrs. Meacham and Powell. The car is positively strictly stock model, says W. Schanhals, local distributor of the Overland and Willys-Knight. This morning a stock Overland with four eccentric wheels wheels with the hubs of center—went swaying down Center-at to the amazement of lookers. This car was used to vertise the third performance of the Jumping Overland, which took place at 12:30 with another stable crowd present. A challenge as usual has been tested to any other car to equate the performance, but the challenge never has been accepted says Schanhals. 7504 LEAP INTO PLUNGE IN JUNE During June 7,504 persons oojoyed the municipal pool, E.Guysl, park superintendent and plunge manager, announced afternoon.

Americans Qualify PARIS, July 1. — Two Americans, Boyce and Bloomer, qualified in the preliminary round of Olympic individual fencing at the Velodrome de Hiver today. I was most interested in the mixed doubles match between Randolph Lycett and Miss Elizabeth Ryan against P. D. Z. Spence and Miss Jeanne Audin. I could not help laughing at Lycett, he played so badly at the start. Miss Ryan had to be the "man" and Lycett "wore the skirts," so to speak. Lycett trotted at the back court like a flapper. It was no wonder Miss Ryan was nervous, but she and her temperamental partner won anyway. NORRIS WILLIAMS IN SEMI-FINALS WIMBLEDON, England, July 1. R. Norris Williams, American expert, today entered the semi-finals of the tennis championships when he defeated A. R. Kingworth one of the English stars, 5-7, 6-4, 6-3. Vince Richards was beaten by J.

RUTH HITS 20TH PHILADELPHIA, July 1—Babe Ruth hit his twentieth home run of today's game off Pitcher Burns of Philadelphia. A Little Talk on Thrift By S. W. STRAUS President American Society for Thrift. Various authorities who have made surveys of the fraudulent investment situation are agreed that the annual losses thus sustained by the people of the United States amounts to $1,000,000,000. One way of looking at this matter is to remember that the sum lost through illegal investments is just about equal to the total amount of our annual savings bank deposits. And there still is another way of looking at it. An eminent economist estimates that the total yearly savings of the American people amounts to $12,000,000,000. This includes all net additions to our national wealth both through the saving of money, through investment in durable goods and through increases in values. It is the net annual profit of the great American family. A third of a century ago the total wealth output of our nation says Schanhals. During June 7,504 persons cojoyed the municipal pool, E. Guyel, park superintendent and plunge manager, announced this afternoon. This compares with 6,180 during May; altho the pool was closed all day yesterday. The aggregate number of persons who have swum or bathed in the presence it was opened is 19,463. Now that the warm weather has come to a stop or more persons per day are using the pool. The pool has been cleaned and entirely fresh water put in. Total light and water installations within the city reached no high levels during June; the aggregates today being 2,630 lights and $1,120 for water; according to V. W. Hannum, superior tendent of the municipal power house. The water situation is getting serious, with a decline of fifty feet to a level of 85 feet below surface of the ground since May 1. BIRD'S EAT BUGS IN KEYSTONE STATE HARRISBURG, July 1. — "My birds—Less Bugs" is the slogon adopted by the Board of Game Commissioners; in waging a vigorous campaign against the killings of song and insectivous birds; the state. Hundreds of tons of destructive insects are consumed daily by the birds of Pennsylvania; officials—the board assert; and the law provides a fine of $10 for killing protected birds or destroying nests. The economic value of these birds is expected to appeal to persons who do not refrain from killing them because of their beauty and song. The old fashioned preacher attends—they knew nothing of films systems nor credit ratings. The boy and his dog are off boon companions; but for protection of both, the dog should be immunized against rabies. FROCK FOR CHILL SUMMER DAY IMPORTANT STATE OFFICE HELD BY YOUNG WOMAN Miss Gladys Pyle. In South Dakota the important position of assistant secretary of state is held by a young woman, Miss Gladys Pyle, of Huron. Miss Pyle also has the distinction of having been South Dakota's first woman legislator. CHARGES DESERTION M.Liss K. Wheeler, formerly with the Red Lantern Confectionery at Brea, seeking divorce from Jesse I. Wheeler. She charges desertion. The couple were married in L.A. in Dec. 1917, and separated in January, 1922. FROCK FOR CHILL SUMMER DAY The Cardinals broke their losing streak—downing the Pirates 7 to 5. Hornsby's home aiding them in the victory. The Braves won the first game from the Phillies 9 to 4, but were stopped in the twilight game by a score of 6 to 4. An eminent economist estimates that the total yearly savings of the American people amounts to $12,000,000,000. This includes all net additions to our national wealth both through the saving of money, through investment in durable goods and through increases in values. It is the net annual profit of the great American family. A third of a century ago the total wealth output of our nation was no greater than our annual not accumulations of wealth today. England and Germany before the war added only about one-sixth of this great sum to their material resources. The fact that we thus are able to pile up $12,000,000,000 in new wealth each year is sufficient proof of the opportunities for financial progress that are held out to the individual in this country. Where there is such opportunity for legitimate advancement, it is all the more deplorable that so many of our people should seek advancement thru methods that result in loss and disease. The situation is due partly to ignorance and illiteracy, partly to the gambling instinct of many, and partly because of the abnormal desires of thousands of our citizens to get rich in a hurry. No one should lose sight of the fact that a billion dollars a year flowing thru illegal channels means that legitimate business has been deprived of that much money and that a heavy burden is placed on the public thru impaired business activities and added costs of living. The rightful earning capacity of money has its limitations, and when representations are made otherwise it should be borne in mind that such representations are made otherwise it should be borne in mind that such representations either are willful efforts to defraud or spring from business principles as unsound as the shifting sands of the sea.

CHEELY VIEWS WORLD CONFERENCE OF ALL RELIGIOUS SECTS TO DISCUSS PEACE, IS HIS PLAN "No government in the world would dare ignore a conference for peace if such a conference included all the religious sects of the world," declares Dr. Ralph W. Sockman, who suggested such a move for peace at the recent general conference of the Methodist Episcopal church. "One of the most important actions taken at the General Conference was the appointing of a committee of 25—10 laymen, 10 ministers and 5 bishops—to bring together with the Methodists other denominations for a discussion of means to prevent war," Dr. Sockman said a few days ago. "I would suggest that not only all Protestant denominations be included, but that the Jews and Catholics and even the Buddhists and Mohammedans be called to Join." Politicians ignore the councils and suggestions of the church in times of peace and when thru bungling they force countries into war they expect the church to LOCK FOR CHILL SUMMER DAYS ministers and 5 bishops—to bring together with the Methodists other denominations for a discussion of means to prevent war," Dr. Sockman said a few days ago. "I would suggest that not only all Protestant denominations be included, but that the Jews and Catholics and even the Buddhists and Mohammedans be called to join. "Politicians ignore the councils and suggestions of the church in times of peace and when thru bungling they force countries into war they expect the church to bless it. We must set ourselves at a program to try to pigeonhole politicians." Wishes Armies Reduced Included in the Methodist peace program is a plan for the formulation of a prayer for peace which will be offered at communion service in all Methodist churches, schools and missions. The 4,500-1000 members of the denomination are scattered in all parts of the earth. Dr. Sockman hopes thru the conference of all religions to have this prayer reach every worshipper in the world. "Armies should be reduced from the level of war power to a police power level," Dr. Sockman said. "At the present time there are 500,000 more men under arms than there were in 1913. There can be no war to end war. The end will have to be brought about thru peace and thru creating the will for peace in all countrys.
