PUBLIC COURSE OPENS SATURDAY The Anaheim Public Golf Course will be thrown open to the public Saturday morning. This announcement was made today by Professional A. D. Walker who laid out and constructed the course on North Citron-st. in the 800 block, just north of North-st. The work of preparing the course was rushed to the utmost and all this week Walker was busy with a crew of men from daylight till dark in order to have the course ready for play Saturday, and indications are that the small course will be taxed to its limit of capacity. Walker reports that since the initial announcement in the Palin Dealer last week of the construction work having been started, no less than a dozen cars a day have driven to the course to inspect it. Owing to the speed with which the work was carried on, the course will not be in as perfect condition for the opening as Walker intended having it, but rather than disappoint the eager crowd waiting to try the new layout, Walker will throw it open on Saturday and continue the work on the course next week. Prizes are to be given for the lowest gross score for Saturday and Sunday. A club will be awarded as first prize; second and third prize will be golf balls, and a consolation prize will be given the poorest player on the first two days play. There will also be a special prize for "birdies." This is to be a regular weekend feature. Prizes will be offered every week for the best score. Those wishing to play on the new course who have no clubs of their own can rent sets at the course for $25c and Mr. Walker will be on hand to give instruction to anyone desiring his services. Walker said he thot this was the smallest course in the state (six holes), but today came word of a three hole course at Huntington- Dungar for Garden Grove pitching a fine game but the heavy hitters of Anaheim got to him as surely as the third inning and each ninth innning kept adding to their lead until the score stood six to one. Pencer and Ashleigh lead the attack each getting two hits out of four times at bat. Al Clayes made a spectacular catch in the ninth innning when he raced over behind third base and going at full speed made a shoestring catch and recovered in time to keep a runner on third from scoring after the match.

HOPEFUL FIRES UNDER CONTROL SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 15—Maripea-co fires were believed definitely checked today although the Sweetwater blaze burning thru Sierra national forest was still out of control. The Yosemite side of this blaze was being held by forest and park rangers who said the famous park was out of danger. The Bautista Canyon fire in Cleveland National Forest was declared by the United States district forester's office to be under control today after having burned over 18,000 acres of forest and brush. Control of the blaze southeast of Weed in Siskiyou co was expected momentarily today. The Chilkoot Pass fire in the Sierra Valley was also under control. The Verdi fire burning on the California-Nevada line was hemme in, said reports received here and control was expected late today. ACTION MAY BE EXPECTED SOON ON BOULDER DAM (Continued from Page One) The Boulder Dam project because of the natural contour of the country covered. One hundred million acres between the dam and the Mexican border can be reclaimed and devoted to agriculture with a production as large as any of 13 Southwestern states. The textile industry can be developed, mining increased, railways electrified, etc. If the water once went to Mexico via another route it could never again be withdrawn. Swing referred to $800,000 acres which "a few American capitalists", were developing south of the border. There, he declared, they had 8,000 Chinese coal at work. Imported from China. His bill, he averred, had been endorsed by the Congressional "engineering" committee which controls proposed legislation. BOY SLAYERS NORMAL ASSERTS STATE EXPERT (Continued from Page One) crimologist, declared that the whole science of glands and their relation to the human mind and conduct is yet so unexplored that no one can say accurately what the glands consist of or whether they have any effect on the conduct of an individual. Dr. Woodyat described at length what physical-condition a patient should be in to get the most accurate estimate of his basal metabolism, how no food should be consumed for several hours, how their should be a period of absolute rest and relaxation. "Would not the same person show different results under different conditions?" asked the state's attorney. "Yes." "Emotion would influence the results obtained?" "Yes." So far as basal metabolism of five percent minus is concerned, which was the defense figure on Loeb, Dr. Woodyat declared that to be "a normal variation" of no particular significance. And the 17% which Leopold shows was not much more important in the epilogue of Dr. Woodyat depended, he said, on the conditions surrounding the test. The state's attorneys described in all their technical details the various blood tests, urine tests, carbon dioxide tests, all of the chemistry of character tests conducted by the defense alienists on Leopold and Loeb, and in a majority of these, Dr. Woodyat said the findings were generally those of normal persons. FOREIGN NEWS NUGGETS ENNIS, Ireland, Aug. 15—Eamonn De Valera's speech, which was a continuation of the address he was making when arrested here by Free State troops one year ago yesterday, was regarded today as opening gun in a new Republican campaign.
