PAGE FOUR UNITED THEATRE 306 East Center SUNDAY AND MONDAY TONIGHT JACK HOXIE —and BABY PEGGY This Woman-Hater Never Had A Chance "NO MORE WOMEN!" An original story for the screen by Eimer Harris presented by Associated Outhorses Drama Group Summer Series Company at Thorne featuring Matt Moore and Madge Bellamy Kathleen Clifford - H. Reeves Smith Clarence Burton - George Cooper Comedy Sensation of the Year—Come and enjoy a good laugh BOATS SAIL TO ENSENADA, MEXICO SAN DIEGO, Aug. 16—With races in the Pacific coast championship regatta now history, more than half of the fleet, which in vaded this port for the events weighed anchor early today and led by the giant "Speedway" carrying the "rocking chair fleet" on the Newport Yacht Club, set sail for Ensenada, Mexico, for a two-day celebration. The California Yacht Club of Los Angeles took the Sir Thomas Lipton trophy for the "R" boat when Sil Spaulding yesterday sailed his "Angela" to two victories out of three starts. In the same race the "Aloha," San Diego entry try, and the "Patricia," C. Y. C. tied for second position honors. The Angela also won in the "R" class last year at Santa Barbara. The San Diego Yacht Club won a similar Lipton trophy when J. O. Jessup yesterday sent his "Windward" across the finish line first in the "star" class. It was Jessup's third consecutive win out of three starts and the most sensational upset of the regatta. In the events for schooner yawls and ketches the California Club walked away with all honors, having a winner in each diving vision, while San Diego took honors in the class for handicap sloops. The Southland Sailing Club of Newport won easily in the smaller class boats for seewits, marlons and Chula Vista one-designers. The San Francisco Yacht Club took only second place in the handicap sloop class. Baseball Toaay AMERICAN LEAGUE Detroit ... 001 002 010—5 12 Washn. ... 000 101 000—2 7 NO MORE WOMEN AT THE UNITED "No More Woman," a comedy drama by Elmer Harris featuring Madge Bellamy, Matt Moore, Kathleen Clifford and a brilliant supporting cast, will be seen at the United Sunday and Monday. "No More Woman" is said to have a wealth of laughs and thrills in its development from a story based on broken hearts and fickle minds—and a faithful dog. It deals with the efforts of a young man, whose financeer "stood him up" on the eve of their wedding and who vowing never to interest himself in woman again, is on the verge of success when a pretty miss, being robbed by two ruffians, screams and he finds that a response to a common duty awaken his romantic soul and his pledge gradually evaporates. Matt Moore, whose work in a score of recent releases is known to all screen lovers, 45 cast as Peter Maddux, the young woman-hater, Madge Bellamy, petite star of many popular plays, lends charm to the role of Peggy Van Dyke, wealthy young miss, in search of adventure and a husband. Kathleen Clifford essays the part of a fickle young butterfly who breaks poor Peter's heart and then finding he has a new fiance repents too late. Glarenco Burton and George Cooper do some very good work, also. All in all "No More Woman" is a splendid evening's entertainment and one that will be thoroughly enjoyed by everyone. Last Night's Fights BOSTON — Paul Berlenbach, New York, knocked out Joe Kelly, Boston, in fourth round of scheduled 10 round bout. ELIZABETH, N. J.—Erminio JOHNSTON DEFEATS HARVEY SNODGRASS NEWPORT, R. L., Aug. 16. A record breaking gallery saw William Johnston, San Francisco, send Harvey Snodgrass, Los Angeles, down to defeat in three straight sets at the Casino today. The scores were 6-2, 6-2, 6-2. "Little Bill" played all around Snodgrass. There were scores of nets and outs by each player, but Johnston's placements numbered six times as many as those of Snodgrass, who also made double faults. Snodgrass' shoulder was lame today. The match was a walkaway for Johnston, who was too fast and clever at maneuvering, as well as too aggressive for Snodgrass. Tagging All the Bases The Pirates pulled the Giants down another peg in the penant race, trouncing the New Yorkers 6 to 4 for their third straight victory. Cuyler hit a homer with two bases. Cincinnati downed the Dodgers under a barrage of 18 hits, winning 10 to 5. The Cardinals won in the eighth 8 to 3, from the Braves. Home runs by Friberg and Barrett with men on base gave the Cubs too great a lead for the Phillies to overcome. Score 8 to 6. The Tigers gained half a game by deefating the Athletics, 4 to 3, while the Yankees were idle, and are now only half a game from the lead. Extra base hits gave the Red Sox their fourth straight win from the White Sox 7 to 6. FLACK RELEASED ST. LOUIS, Aug. 16.

Paige, local health officer, today urged that parents finding their children breaking out with any disease howsoever mild report the matter to their family physician, or else the city health officer in order that the present contagion of smallpox which he says is all over the city may not spread further. He said that many children broke out mildly and the parents that it merely a case of chicken pox, while others exposed to them break out with a bad case of smallpox. Therefore he urged MUNICIPAL RITES TO CURB PRICES LOSEON, Aug. 16.—Folwina complaints that undertakers in this city are profiteering, the Municipal Council is considering a proposal to establish municipal funerals. The proposal suggests that there should be four different classes of funerals—the first for the rich, the second for the middle classes, the third for the working people and the fourth which would be free, for the needy. THE PLAIN DEALER, ANAHEIM, CALIF. S SAIL TO INSENADA, MEX.

San Francisco Yacht Club only second place in the sloop class. BREATHALY SARGUM PROUTINGS Peor old Kid McCoy, once the greatest box fighter in the game of his weight and champion marrying pugilist, has run amuck and his colorful career is about at an end. He is accused of at least one murder and the shooting of several others. The dead woman was to have been the Kid's tenth wife. Brain specialists will be telling us that the Kid's flight from the same is the result of some blow he received years ago in the ring: maybe so, who knows? My guess would be that bootleg, women and dope played the important roles in weakening the Kid's mental apparatus. It has been said on good authority that he was the greatest prize fighter of his weight of all time. It can truthfully be said that he was the most married of any boxer. Nine times he had embarked on the matrimonial seas and each time he lost the decision but he was ready to try again. He was a game kid and if he had not run amuck he might have had many other ventures on the Sea of Bias. The seat sale for the Loenard-Walekr bout had reached $150,000. There was every indication that the bout would be staged to a sell-out house which would mean some $600,000. So Benny's little fight with Pal Moran may cost him a pretty penny. Benny's injured thumb will not permit the champ to do any real boxing for some weeks yet and the public may lose interest in the bout by the time Benny is ready and the weather will be unfavorable at that time. It is hot that the bout will take place the latter part of September. The postponement of the bout MILLER & MABEE TO MEET AGAIN The big wrestling match is on. Roy Mabee is coming back for another whirl at the Little Giant of Brea, Orlando Miller. Miller made Roy look like 30 cents in the latter part of their last match. The orange grower has been working faithfully since that match and expects to last much longer. He was completely thru after the first fall at the last match. He had been out of the game for over a year and Miller had been wrestling for several months. Roy did not have much time to get ready for the Brea lad and Roy just blew up and the Little Giant never let up. If training will accomplish his wishes, Roy will be in tip-top shape when he again enters the ring with Miller. Roy has been working out four or five times a week, also doing road work at home. Last Saturday and Sunday he had Pete Sour to work with and received much benefit from the workouts. Pete has been working with Toots Mondt and a lot of the wrestlers now in Los Angeles and the husky Pete is some man just at present. Roy is all excited over Pete's ability as a wrestler and goes so far as to predict that he will some day be a contender for the world's championship. Pete is only 24 years young and will develop considerable weight in the next two or three years. He strips 197 pounds now. Toots Mondt was just around the 200 pound mark when he wrestled Roy some two years ago and he now weighs 225 pounds. Roy and Miller will stage their big match at the Fullerton Club. The Club has installed a different seating arrangement and will be able to take care of a much larger crowd. Manager Jaffray tells us that he is going to have three real boxing bouts as preliminaries to the big wrestling match. He Newport won easily in the class boats for sea mariners and Chula Vista signers. San Francisco Yacht Club is second place in the sloop class.

Dave is a hard luck lad. He has been chasing Mickey Walker all over for a little bout and has no been able to get in the same ring with the champ. He came out here to pick up some dollars and keep fit by actual work. He ran into the Whittier Mex and lost a decision. He stayed on the job till he got a return match, beat the Mex only to have the judges hand him a raw deal in a draw decision. The Huntington Beach Athletic club is enjoying a prosperous run since reopening a few weeks ago. Kid Mexico has been playing his shows to packed houses, and the shows have been very good so far. Young Terry has made a hit with the beach fans. Those who have seen Terry in action claim that he is a great improvement over the old Terry who used to show at Anaheim. Luis Angel Firpo is doing most of his work with his left hand in his training stunts for the Willis bout. Firpo has been trying to develop that left hand each time he has tarined for a fight but to date he has made little headway. The trouble with Firpo he does not stay with the training long enough to perfect his intent. He could make a useful weapon of that left if he had the persistence but we do not expect that he will develop the persistency. The Vernon Tigars are minus a pitching staff but man, they are still fighting. They are having it out with the Seattle Indians this week. If Red Killifer can not win this series he had better give up hopes of a pennant this season. Boss Vinegar Bill just has two pitcher in shape for the series. Of course, some of the world-best may come through. Bill would give considerable to have three or four extra hurlers to throw at Killifer and his gang. The Vernon and Indian managements are about as thick as the north star and the south pole. It was Killifer and Indians who caused the Little Three and the Big Five to come into being and of course each would go a long way to keep the other out of the lead. It begins to look as if Jimmy FORMER WHITE SOX HELD AS EMBEZZLER NEW YORK, Aug. 16—Chas. F. Young, said to be a former third baseman on the Chicago White Sox, was arrested today and held for the police of Pasadena, where he is wanted for embezlement. The California authorities telegraphed yesterday to apprehend him. Young admitted he had recently arrived from the Pacific coast but said he knew nothing of the charges against him. He was taken before a police justice and remanded to jail until Monday, pending arrival of extradition papers. Young is wanted in Pasadena on a complaint of a woman who says she commissioned the ex-ball player to sell her car. She claims she got neither her car nor money back. R. S. GREGORY TO RESUME BUILDING R. S. Gregory, Fullerton builder and contractor, announced today that he was starting building activities again shortly in Fullerton with the construction of four residences on Woods-ave. Vacation time is over, he says, and he expects to spend the fall and win MIS PARENTS TO SPORT SMALLPOX GEORGE A.

Vacation time is over, he says, and he expects to spend the fall and winter in an extensive building campaign in Fullerton, and in the spring he says he's planning to start a similar campaign in Anaheim. Mr. Gregory has built several hundred residences in Fullerton and Anaheim in the past.

Pittsburg Pirates have started fans chasing again about the Giants being due to step out of the National League leadership The Pirates took three straight from the Giants, thereby curting the lead to four gunmen. The Cubs are in third place but seem to have lost their chance of winning the pennant. The Yanks are leading the American League by a fraction of a game. The Detroit Tigers are camping right at their heels and the Yanks must watch their stop or the Tigers will step into the lead. The Senators are not so far down the line but that they could step into the lead with a winning streak. It is appalling when considering the gambling that is being done on baseball games each day. There seems to be no remedy for the evid, as most of the money is bet by gamblers who do not care a nickel for the game as a sport. In Los Angeles there are hundreds of places where bets are made by those who wield go to the games. One man alone lost $50,000 in a complaint of a woman who says she commissioned the ex-ball player to sell her car. She claims she got neither her car nor money back.

It has to do with the national woman's championship tennis tournament, staged at Forest Hills, L.L., beginning Aug. 11. The reason is that the Pacific coast will present a formidable array at the tourney and gives every indication now of being able to keep the national title away from the east, where it resided during the reign of Mrs. Moila Bjurstedt Mallory. Of course the main hope of the west coast net enthusiasts is Miss Helen Willis, who took the title west last summer. Then Miss Mary Browne, former champion who is attempting her second comeback, has shown by her play that she must be considered. She fought her way into the semi-finals two years ago. Miss Browne first brought fame to the Pacific Coast in tennis years ago when she held the national title in 1912, 13-14. Then, too, there is Miss Ethel Sutton. This younger sister of the famous May Sutton Bundy, is said to be one of the best female players on the coast this season. She shows great promise of being one of the best in the country within the next few seasons. She will get her first big test in the national tourney. With these women to head the list of women folk from the far shore will make a determined effort to keep the title in their section. Rollie Zeider, former big league star, whose buoyant made him famous, has become manager of the Paris, Texas, team in the East Texas league, and is making a big hit with the fans there. When Rollie blew into town he probably pulled that old wise crack: "So this is Paris." Brower was given a chance as a relief hurler recently and did acceptable work. He had not completed his intensive training course then, however. He showed a lot of mysterious stuff, but lacked control. This control may be expected to come with more practice. Brower started his professional career as a pitcher. He had coached a rep at Washington and Lee University, where he was graduated. The Cardinals gave him his first big league tryout in 1914, but let him go. The next year he joined Utica and the following year got a tryout with the Phillies. Pat Moran, then piloting the Phils, talked Brower into giving up whatever desire he had of becoming a big league pitching star and turning his efforts to landing a regular berth where he could use his terrific clouting to advantage. He was turned back to Utica then sent to Portland, Me. In 1919 he joined Reading, and his terrific clouting there bore out Moran's advice. The following year Brower finished second in batting with an evertage of .388, and led the league in home runs, slammin gout 22. Washington grabbed him the next year and kept him until they sent him to Cleveland in 1922 in exchange for infielder Joey Evans. He has filled a utility role ever since.
