ILLEGAL JUICE HELD IN BOXES
Earl Stimson of Los Angeles picked up by Fullerton police on a charge of possession of liquor, was released on bail of $500 to await a hearing before Judge French Nov. 18. Stimson is said to have been carrying 17 bottles of liquor hidden away in the midst of a box of electrical appliances.
Miss Mae Busch, who enacts the title role in "A Woman Who Sinned," which will show at the United theatre Tuesday and Wednesday, is a veritable fashion show by herself.
The winsome star is first shown as a minister's wife; then as the mistress of a Wall-st broker. Her gowns, therefore, range from the dalty gingham dress of a country girl to the most elaborate of evening creations.
The gowns worn by Miss Busch in "A Woman Who Sinned" present a splendor of clothes heretofore unequaled on the screen. The gowns are the latest creation of an exclusive fashion shop in Paris. In no way are they reminiscent or suggestive of anything in milady's wants that have ever been shown to feminine eyes before. Although Miss Busch is a possessor of a myriad of expensive gowns, at no time is her histrionic ability overshadowed by her costly clothes.
The story of "A Woman Who Sinned" is from the pen of Pink Fox. In addition to writing the story for which he was offered $60,000, Fox directed and produced the picture. A number of elaborate sets are shown in the picture, including one interior set that cost more than $8000 and a big revival scene employing nearly 2500 extras.
Miss Busch is the featured player, supported by Irene Rich, Wallace Morgan and Rex Lease.
As an added feature on this program, Hal Roach presents his little rascals, "Our Gang," in their latest comedy, "The Cobblers." This is decidedly one of their cleverest pictures.
Of the six women who were candidates for Congress on major party tickets in the recent election three were victorious at the polls.

FRISCO SEEKING
A. A. U. MEETING
ATLANTIC CITY, N.J., Nov.
17—A decision of the common field events of the Amateur Athletic Union of the United States to have the 1925 outdoor track and field championship meet at San Francisco was to be approved today at the thirty-sixth annual meeting of the Union.
San Francisco, Pasadena and Chicago were rivals for the honor, first of its sort for the west since 1920.
Decision on the indoor track and field meet was withheld, pending a reply from Louisville, Ky., to inquiries concerning an error in that city's application, and the question of a guarantee. If the meet is not to be held in Louisville, it will take place in New York City, it is believed.
Women's swimming championships (outdoors) are to be held at Bay Shore, Long Island. The indoor swimming meet for women will be held in St. Augustine, Fla., the men's outdoor swimming contest will be in Seattle, Wash., and the men's indoor swimming meet has been awarded to the Olympic Club, San Francisco.
The wrestling committee decided to stage next year's wrestling championships on the grounds of the Oklahoma Agricultural and Mechanical College at Stillwater, Okla.
Murray Hulburt, vice president of the Union, formerly a congressman, and now president of the board of aldermen in New York City, is a candidate to succeed Wm. C. Prout, of Boston, who has been head of the organization for three terms.
It is believed he will be unopposed.

HASN'T SOLD YET,
DECLARES EWING
OAKLAND, Nov. 17—"Absolutely nothing has been done regarding the sale of the Oaks," J. Cal Ewing, president of the Oakland club, declared this morning in answer to reports that Walter Johnson of Washington and George Weiss of New Haven had closed a deal over the week-end.
Prior to Ewing's announcement, Herbert S. McFarlin, secretary of the Oakland club, was asked what he knew of the reported sale.
"I am in no position to state," he replied, "but it would seem as if the report is correct."
When asked today regarding the Johnson-Weliss deal, Secretary Herbert S. Farlin of the Oakland club said:
"It would seem the report is correct, but Ewing must make the announcement."
EXPECT TO REPORT
BALL CLUB SALE
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 17—Announcement was expected to be made today that Walter Johnson, pitching star of the Washington Americans, and George Weiss, owner of the New Haven club in the Eastern league, have purchased the Oakland baseball club of the Pacific Coast league, it was learned here this morning.
It is understood that the price paid by the Johnson-Weliss partnership is around $300,000.
Johnson and Weiss have been on the coast for several weeks with the object of buying a ball club. It has been rumored several times that they would purchase the Oakland club but up to today nothing definite was known.
Neither Cal Ewing, president of the Oakland baseball club, nor Del Howard, business manager and next largest stockholder to Ewing, could be reported to confirm the sale.

RAILWAY STOCKS
CONTINUE CLIMB
NEW YORK, Nov. 17. — Railroad and industrial stocks continued their forward movement into higher levels today. The rails were featured by heavy buying in all departments and initiated the rally which spread to the whole market, with the exception of the oils. Special demonstrations took place in a number of the specialty stocks, some of them new additions to the active list, and prices were pushed forward vigorously for gains of from three to 10 points.
While profit taking was in progress in some parts of the list, notably the oils, the shorts were being pushed in high priced stocks which have covered considerable ground in recent sessions, accumulating short selling on the way up. General Electric gained about 10 points on short covering and much of the buying in Mack Trucks was attributed to the same cause. The bears were not able to depress American Can tho offerings were fairly heavy.
Heavy accumulation of roalroad stocks has reduced the market supply and buying orders today found little stock offered. It required only a small volume of selling to send New York Central to a new high at 117%; Union Pacific up two points to 146%; Sou. Pac. up one to 102%; New Haven to above 29 and Wabash pfd. A to a new high at 54% on exceedingly heavy trading.
Trading was very heavy in the first two hours the result of a large accumulation of bying orders from out of town points. There was further switching from industrial to railroad stocks but many of the active independent steel, motor, equipment and specialty stocks were also favored in the trading. Industrial conditions were reported as favorable, money easy and commodity prices hardening.

The immortal need no issue to perpetuate their names. Grateful nations look to that.
Abraham and Mary Todd Lincoln were blessed with four sons—Robert Todd, Thomas (Tad), William Wallace and Edward Baker. Of these only Robert Todd, former ambassador to the Court of St. James, secretary of war in Garfield's cabinet, and former president of the Pullman Palace Car Co., is alive.
Robert T. Lincoln is the only son of the president who lived to an age sufficiently advanced for marriage and of his alliance only one son was born. This boy was named Abraham, but he, too, passed away in his youth and the hope of perpetuating the line of the great president passed with him.
His children were the delight of Lincoln's life and the loss of them by death his greatest trial. Many new sidelights upon the character of Lincoln have been disclosed through research into the records of his life and times by the Rockett Lincoln Film Co., producers of "Abraham Lincoln," which is coming to the California next Sunday, and his relations with children, both his own and others, form one of the most delightful commentaries of his life.

SPORTS DONE BROWN
BY NOOMAN E. BROWN
Before another football season rolls around another change in the provisions for the kickoff will be made. That is assured now, with the end of the present season still a few weeks off.
The present rule, which calls for kicking off the ball from mid-field instead of the 40-yard line, has already proved a blunder on the part of the rules committee.
The change was made to meet what officials expected to be a new condition created at the same time by the elimination of the "tee" for the kickoff. They believed that the prohibiting of an artificial base for the ball would shunt the distance obtained by the kicker. To neutralize this they moved the location of the ball nearer the opponent's goal line.
Now, however, they are aware of the fact that the good kickers find little trouble in getting all-most as much distance to their kicks from heel-made grooves as they did from raised tees.
And the result is that 90 percent of the kickoffs are landing behind the enemy's goal line. The ball is then carried out and put in play on the 20-yard line.
This makes the kickoff of little value from any viewpoint. In the opinion of many experts it could be dispensed with and the ball first placed in play on the 20-yard line of the side losing the toss.
When the ball was booted from the 40-yard line the receiver frequently had an opportunity, behind good interference, of getting the ball back well beyond the 20-yard line. Ask Red Grange. With the ball landing behind the goal line the kicking side has no chance to recover the ball thru fumble or nall the runner "in his tracks," always a thrill of the game in the past.
Some coaches, awake to the weakness of the new rule, have attempted to outwit their opponents and the rule makers by having their kickers apparently "top" the ball when they kick it. This causes the ball to bound along the field. The temptation to endeavor to fall on it or pick it up and run with it is great. The moment an opponent does get his hands on it—and misses it—the ball is in play, of course, and the kicking side has a 50-50 chance of regaining possession of the ball within the shadow of the opposition's goal line.
The two outstanding stars of the British golf firmament of 1924 are Joyce Wethered and E.K. Whitecombe. They performed as brilliantly for England as Bobby Jones and Walter Hagen did for Uncle Sam.
Whitecombe is the young gentleman who led Walter Hagen most of the way in the British open championship and finished one stroke behind the American meteor. In the more recent News of the World tournament, which is the British equivalent of the American pro tourney, Whitcombe proved himself easily the class of the field.
Miss Wethered, regaining her title as British women's champion, placed herself well above all competition. She not only won the British women’s open title but took the closed event later.
Friends of Bill Sherdel, Cardinal southpaw, like to tell the story that when he made his first railroad journey to Milwaukee from the Blue Ridge country to join the club, he took a day coach, sat up all the way and subsisted on food his mother packed before he left home.
But Bill points out that apparently he also packed a mean left arm along that first trip, else he would not now be in the big show.

George E. Turner, concert organist at the California theatre, has arranged a special screen presentation of the great ballad success, "West of the Great Divide." In this number Mr. Turner will continue the novel manner of presenting these musical numbers which has already met with much widespread approval in the city.

Much favorable comment was heard on the musical interpretation of "The Alaskan" at its first showing yesterday, which was arranged by M. Turner, contains excerpts from Dvorak's "New World" Symphony, the "Ruy Blas" overture of Mendelsohn and the Indian songs of the California composer, Charles Wakefield Cadman.

Sinners in Heaven at Calif. Tomorrow
The title of the new Paramount picture, "Sinners in Heaven," which is coming to the California Theatre for Tuesday and Wednesday has a distinctly paradoxical sound. It is safe to assume that the picture satisfactorily explains and justifies the title.
To those, however, who have read the story by Clive Arden from which the picture was adapted by James Crelman and produced by Alan Crossland, the title has an especial significance and it is certain that they will approve its retention in the screen play.
"Sinners in Heaven" tells the story of a man and a girl who are thrue fate wrecked on a tropical island off the coast of Africa. Try to imagine what would happen if you found yourself stranded in some remote corner of the earth, apparently a million miles from any sign of civilization, and your only companion was a person whom you cordially dialked! This is the situation that confronts Barbara Stockley, the heroine; and you can readily understand the dynamic possibilities for rich drama when we tell you that the girl eventually falls in love with the man and marries him, there, in the heart of the African desert! How the marriage is performed and what happens after that, we will let you discover for yourself.
With a combination of such box office favorites as Bebe Daniels and Richard Dix who portray the two leading roles, surrounded by such likeable and well known players as Holmes Herbert, Montague Love, Florence Billings, Effie Shannon, Betty Hilburn and Marcia Harris,
