Corinne Griffith was born in Texarkana, Tex., and lived for a period in and near Dallas. While she was in her early teens the Griffiths moved to Los Angeles, and it was while there that she won a beauty contest at Santa Monica. A director witnessed the galaxy of beauties and decided that Miss Griffith would screen to perfection. He signed her up and she consequently appeared in several three-reelers, which marked her as the motion picture's most promising actress. Her most famous characterizations have been in "The Common Law," "Black Oxen," "Lillies of the Field" and "Six Days." Opposite Miss Griffith in "Single Wives," her latest photoplay, will be seen Milton Sills, who portrays the role of the husband who although loving his wife dearly, forgets that he must never cease his courtship if he would hold her love.

Special Correspondent) NEW YORK, Sept. 5.—Great Britain's hope of lifting the grand challenge cup in the international o matches that start at Meadowbrook, N. Y., tomorrow, rests the ability of the British-bred ponies to outrun their American mates. The victory that carried the cup from the United States to the English Isles was scored entirely by the superiority of the English polo ponies over their Yan-a-mates. Forty-six of the finest trained ponies that could be collected within the broad domain of the British empire are ready and to be used by the challengers. The jimmy Paulkner, a 70-year-old veteran horseman, is in charge of the jimmy Paulkner ponies on his knowledge of orrefless. It is said that in 1914 he was prediction that England would win the series that caused many Britishers to back their team in the face of what looked like a set-up for the American tour. Faulkner based his prediction victory on his judgment of the superior quality of the British ponies over the mounts that Harry Wayne Whitney and his mates had. Because of the soundness of the prediction, Faulkner has been killed as a sage in polo circles in Europe. His prestige as a pro-tet was strengthened in 1921 when he predicted that lack of mass among the British ponies could cost Great Britain the cup. COURTHOUSE DOINGS J. F. Gale, of Orange, today was granted probation in Superior Judge F. C. Drummim's court, when he promised to return to the own-ground. L.A. WOMAN U.S. GOLF CHAMPION NAYATT, R. L., Sept. 5—Miss Mary K. Browne, Los Angeles, defeated Miss Glennna Collett, Providence, R.L., today on the 19th green in a semi-final round of the women's national golf championship. In the other semi-final game Mrs. Dorothy Campbell Hurd, Merion, defeated Mrs. Clarence Van derbeest, Philadelphia, 2 tnd 1. The game between Miss Brown and Miss Collett soon developed into a pure test of nerves. Miss Brown won because she gave a splendid exhibition of courage from her first shot until her last. Miss Collett obtained a lead of two holes, but Miss Brown, by the hardest kind of batting, won them back. Then Miss Collett gained a one hole lead, only to lose it at the fifteenth. The match afforded a great study in temperament and demonstrated beyond a doubt that Miss Brown has brot into women's golf the greatest player it has ever known. Miss Brown won the 12th when Miss Collett flubbed a two root putt and the match was squared. At the short seventeenth Miss Collett was within a few feet of the pin with her tee shot—a grand effort under the exacting circumstances. Miss Brown, always pushing out for the hole, was too powerful and her ball trickled out the island green and into sand. Her second flew over the green and she conceded the hole and Miss Collett was one up with one to play. Off the 18th tee, Miss Collett was in the rough at the left and Miss Browne was in the rough at the right. Miss Collett played out short, but almost any kind of a shot would pull her out. Miss Browne never hesitated. She took a spoon and played a ball. SARGUM PROUTINGS Wrestling at the Fullerton club, Friday, Sept. 13th, featuring Orlando Miller and Pete Sour, is the notice we received from Manager Jaffray. Fans, that should be a large evening entertainment! But, listen, just in the way of good measure, Tom Roller, or Wilson as some know him, will attempt to finish his little argument with Fred Mortensen started at the last Miller-Sour match. Many of the fans would pay the price just to see these two go again. Tom surely made a hit with the Anaheim fans. But this is getting away from the main attraction of the event. Pete Sour was not in condition when he met Miller the last time in fact, Pete does not take anything very seriously, but he has been doing a lot of training and will be in condition. Roy Mabee says that he is next to Ad Santel in ability. Toots Mondt says that he has a great future ahead of him in the wrestling game if he will but take it seriously. So, if Miller gets by Pete again, Miller will prove again that he is a very serious candidate for the championship of his weight. There is one thing sure, the Little Giant is always in condition to give the fans the best that he has to offer. He is one of the best conditioned boys in the world to day. He is earnest in his wrestling endeavors. He takes it seriously and his great condition wins for him when he would be easy prey under lesser physical perfection. Anyway, it is going to be a real match; a match that will be a much harder strain on the Little Giant than either of the last Roy Mabee matches were. Versions of Bert Colima's foul blow that lost him the bout with Bob Sage, differ greatly among AMERICAN POINT TEAM FAVOR NEW YORK, Sept., one day before British teams can polo teams take their matches, the American been made a prime favor tain the cup.

Drumm's court, when he promised to return to the owner funds he secured from the sale of four oil units which belonged to Mrs. Betty Phillipson, of Orange. Gale, who had been charged with embezzlement, claimed that he thought he had a right to the oil units, which he received the said, from a man who owed him $250. The man, he said, told him to sell the units to cover the debt. C. L. Clark is charged with bourgain in an information filed today by the district attorney's office in department 2 of the superior court. Clark is accused of entering the dental suite of Dr. D. C. Cowles, 705 N. Spadra, Fullerton, Aug. 17. Ignacio Arebalo, of Fullerton, was charged with driving an auto while under the influence of liquor, was today denied probation and sentenced by Superior Judge Drumm. Arebalo was arrested on Laguna boulevard, Sept. 1. Foreclosure of a lien amounting to $88.68 against a ten-acre ranch and dwelling of R. R. Handy and Owen Handy, at Villa Park, was sought today in a superior court action filed by the Hammond Lumber Co. against the Handys and R. Weltbrecht, contractor who built the house. The lien was based on a lumber bill. PRINCE OF WALES JOINS NIGHT LIFE IN CABARET (Continued from Page One) and he means to make the most of it. For when the prince goes to his ranch at High River, Alberta, on the 14th, he will have to go to work. "Does the prince work there?" "Indeed he does," was the emphatic answer. "When he arises in the morning, the prince asks what there is to be done. One day there is stock to be coralled. The next there is hay to be got in. Or, perhaps postholes must be dug. The prince works at his ranch chores just like any cowboy." "At home it is the same. Much of his time is devoted to public activities.

Some think that Colima is extremely careless with that low punch when fighting a good man, others that he is very unlucky with his uppercuts. It is peculiar that he does not have any trouble holding up his punches on a man he can easily defeat. Are you watching those Brooklyn Dodgers go? McGraw is doing everything he knows to stave off defeat but those Dodgers just keep on going. The Yanks are having the same trouble as McGraw only it is the Senators that are causing their troubles. Neither the Senators or Dodgers got started till late in the season. They did not show any signs of being pennant contenders til recently. The Dodgers especially have made a meteoric climb. The great majority of fans are pulling for the Senators and Dodgers to cop. The Yanks and Giants are popular but they have held the high honors so long that the fans want a change. A man who had watched Pop Greens drive many races had this to say about the greatest of harness race drivers: "The squawest shooter I ever saw. When Pop was driving you could bet your last cent that the race would be on the square." That is a great tribute to a man who has followed the sport game for 50 years, and the racing world seems to be echoing it over and over and over. Pop drove one too many races. He has driven his last race for his last charge stumbled and threw him to his death, but Pop Greers' record will go on and on. It pays in the long run to be on the up and up. In another branch of racing, auto, Daro Resta, a veteran of many years, met death when his car left the track on a straight away.

When time permits, he often attends to the ponies himself. WRESTLER HOLDS AFTER FIRST FALL LOS ANGELES, Sept. 5. After losing the first fall, Ed "Strangler" Lewis, world's champion heavyweight wrestler, came back last night in his match here against Stanislas Zbyszko and threw his opponent twice, retaining his title. The Pole got the first fall with a flying mare in 24 minutes. Lew is used his famous flying headlock in both his falls, gaining the first in 29 minutes and the second in 4 minutes.

Firpo does not especially care about besting Harry Wills; it is the dollars from the fight that is of so much interest. Strangler Lewis again proved that he is too much for the aging Pole, Zbyszko, in the championship match at the Philharmonic Auditorium last night, the champ winning two falls after the Pole had gained the first. Zbyszko is like Roy Mabee, he just has not the stamina of old. He looked good in the first fall but thereafter his strength slowly left him till Lewis had no trouble in the last round. Zipo landed Lewis with a flying mare in 24 minutes and 12 seconds. Lewis took the next in 30 minutes with his headlock and repeated in the next fall in a little over four minutes. Lewis only has the one lock that he can handle the Pole with. Our old friend, Hermen Strob, was a victim of Toots Mondt in the main preliminary. Toots was just too good for Herman and handled the oil driller with ease, which proves that Toots is some man. The Vernon fight management has lined up one of the most pleasing cards that could be arranged. Johnny Adams takes on Phil Salvador in the first half of the double main event. This was advertised as the main attraction and was that good enough to fill the house but just to put on a stunner once Bert Colima was brought back with Bbb Sage. If this card does not pack the new arena then there is no hope of such a thing being accomplished. Adams was reported as going back to little old New York but has signed up for three bouts at the Vernon arena before he takes the eastern flyer. Plain Dealer Charge results. Tr AMERICAN POLO TEAM FAVORITE NEW YORK, Sept. 5.—Only one day before British and American polo teams take the field Saturday in the first of the challenge matches, the American team has been made a prime favorite to retain the cup. Followers of the game lean strongly to the Americans largely because the defending four is composed of veterans who have been thru the mill of much experience. In the various practice games which have been played recently on Long Island as preparation for the matches, the game of Devereaux Milburn, captain and back of the American four, and the heard riding and hitting of Tommy Hitchock, Jr., have stood out sharply. The defense of Milburn, experts declared, has been all that could possibly be expected from a polo player. J. Watson Webb at No. 1, and Malcolm Stevenson at No. 3, complete the American team. Webb is the only left hander among the internationalists and this, it is contended, lends something of an advantage to the cup defenders. The British team is composed of inexperienced players, so far as international matches are concerned. None of them has been seen in this country, with the exception of the practice contests of the last week or so. Even in these the acknowledged star of the invading four, Luis Lacey, was not in action because of an injury to his shoulder. He will be back on Saturday, however. The Yankees are known to be a much harder riding and hitting four than their opponents, but it also is conceded that the Britons are better mounted. $100 IN GIFTS GIVEN AWAY TONITE CALIFORNIA Always Cool Phone 258 TONIGHT AND SATURDAY HERE IS THE DRAMA THAT TOUCHES ALL MARRIAGES —A WARNING FOR HUSBANDS—A MOTTO FOR WIVES.
