D. Walker who built the new Anaheim Public Golf course on North Citron-st was much pleased with the successful opening of the new course on Saturday and received hearty congratulations from nearly all of Anahein's colony of golfers. City Attorney Webb had the honor of being the first person to register and play on the new course. Mr. and Mrs. B. B. Barton took their golf before breakfast Sunday morning, playing a round at 6 a.m. J. II. Bentley turned in the lowest gross score for the first two days play. On Saturday Benilitt tied with Dr. Palmer with an $1, but bettered his score on Sunday by 11 strokes, his card on Sunday 35-24—70, winning first prize—a new club. E. S. Alsip was second with $8.

Badgley was in action—the first southpaw seen on the course. Tuesday and Thursday of each week is to be ladies day and special classes of ladies are to be given instruction by Mr. Walker Putting and approaching contests will be on the program and prizes awarded. Much work still remains to be done on the new course, but Walker and his men are fast whipping it into shape and each day sees improvements. By the end of the week the course should be in excellent condition. ORANGE COUNTY PUBLIC COURSE Improvements are still being carried on. The road from the county highway into the property is being put in first class condition and the fairways and greens continue to show the result of Szarfinski's progressive efforts to bring the course to perfection. The popularity of the course is growing apace; each day sees new players going around. A complete cafe service has been placed in operation in the club house for the convenience of players who desire to spend the whole day on the links. Szarfinski and Brubaker have made a remarkably attractive course out of the oldest and most neglected course in the county. FAIRWAY This popular grass course on the hills is carrying on the work of remodeling industriously in spite of the warm weather and has taken on a "dressed up" appearance of late with the canyons cleared of underbrush, the clubhouse remodeled and the work of enlarging several of the greens well on the way toward completion. HACIENDA Warm weather does not apparently affect the "golf bug," judging from the number of players to be seen on this popular grass course tucked away in the hills at the north edge of the county, unless it makes the old "bug" more active. The Southern California Professional Golfers' Assn. semi-monthly sweepstakes is to be played on this sporty course Sept. 25 and a pleasant surprise is in store for some of the boys who have never visited this club. The last nine holes which were completed only a short time ago with one or more canyons to cross on every hole is a very sporty affair and the entire course is in excellent condition for the coming event.

Beginnings pointed out that the Yank to Lou Blue, the Tiger'sacker, has handicapped Debb's young pitchers, who had going great all season, are a lot of their effectiveness." New York, Aug. 20.—Industrial stocks gave another demonstration of their strong position in the stock market today as the high priced leaders in this group were pushed vigorously forward to a new high price level for the year; in some cases to the highest prices since the post-war boom of 1910. While the industrial outlook was brightened by a number of optimistic statements from business leaders, the activity of the stock was as much influenced by powerful professional pools as any other factor. U. S. Steel at 702, sold at new high price since 1919 when 115% was the highest price recorded. Simultaneous forward movements took place in the active copper, motor, independent steel, shipping and specialty stocks, the list including the stocks of leading mercantile companies. Oil stocks were inactive but steady with the exception of the Pan-Americans, which continued to feature a trick forward movement in reflection of the strong market for fuel oils contrasted to the weak position of gasoline. The Iron Age reported another increase in steel ingot output and larger operation for the industry as a whole, the accompanied by yielding prices in important products, particularly shapes, plates and bars. The entire industry was close to 55% working capacity as the week opened, according to this authority. Price movements in the motor stocks were uniformly upward. Mack Truck was the leader. A future in the motor manufacturing industry is the adoption of widespread motor bus lines both for local and interurban routes and entailing the probable purchase of thousands of motor buses in the next year. Specialties, with and without pool support, were strong today. General Electric rose sharply six points; Union Tank Car made its appearance.

S, Staff Correspondent) Dutch Leonard has rejoined the Tigers with a new fadeaway delivery. He has faded away from the big leagues so often that it should be well-nigh perfect by this time. Miss Eleanor Judd of South Berd, Ind., a blind girl, who recently won a degree of M.A. at George Washington University, is the only blind girl ever to be graduated from that college. If a pennant is won by defeating one’s leading opponents, the Tigers won't have any world series dough to buy new flyovers this fall. The champs have lost ten out of 18 games to the Senators, and have only broken even with the Tigers. The greatest stumbling block to Washington's chances is the Cleveland club, which has won ten out of 16 games from the Senators. Since everybody has been falling the fighters the "Wild Bull" and the "Black Panther," the bout should be held in a zoo, with the referee holding a nature book instead of a rule. The betting to date favors to win by a knockout. If you lose money, this is a safe to do it. However, the Senegal slugger must win quickly other words, 'Arry must tail bull by the horns.

Carr, Clifford & Carr are a combination of harmony singing, dancing, mirth and melody. Two men and an attractive blonde present an offering that has been praised by press and public favor from coast to coast, and their work is well worth watching. Direct from "The Million Dollar Doll" company come Joseph Berri and Leah Bonni, who were also featured in "The Dream Girl." They will offer "Frivolities From the Follies" in a dazzling manner set off in costumes de luxe and musical harmony par excellence. To miss these clever artists is to miss one of the finest acts of the season. Murray & Mackey, in "Laffs and Blues," are the headliners and they show their stuff in a big time manner. A laff and a howl to every line, this act should stop the show. Frawley & West present "Gymnastics Supreme," a cleverly arranged athletic act that will thrill you with the many daring stunts that are pulled. All in all it looks like a very large night so don't delay in getting seats for there'll be a scarcity.
