In fact, Hartranft didn't seem to be altogether in sympathy with the record roguerry at "Desert Shiek" Travellers in the east, especially in Cairo, always return with tales of the trickery practiced by native salesmen in the bazaar. The vision of a tourist, and especially an American tourist, approaching the bazaar is a signal at once for putting up prices all round. This is so typical that Tom Terris decided to introduce it as local color in the film production of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's story, "The Desert Shiek," which is coming to the United theatre in this city commencing tomorrow for an engagement of two days. With some artifice he succeeded in getting a bazaar salesman to follow the usual preliminary of substituting a price ticket increased for the special BEARS SCORE TOUCHDOWN IN SECOND QUARTER (Continued from Page One yards.

Hartranft, candidate for assembly, and Rev. Walter L. Thornton, both of Fulerton, didn't touch, even indirectly, the matter of either Klan or the recall. In fact, Hartranft didn't seem to be altogether in sympathy with the evident purpose of the rally. His speech and that of the pastor, were applauded warmly by both sides, in spite of Hartranft's previous anti-Klan views. Both men spoke in behalf of co-operation. The scheduled program was: "Past, Present, Future of Orange County", Supervisor Tom Talbert of Huntington Beach; "Klan—Law Enforcement," Alex P Nelson; "Past and Present Real Estate Values." B. H. Sidnell, the only Anheilman on the list; "Life, Liberty and the Pur suit of Happiness," S.C. Hartranft, of Fulerton, candidate for assembly; "What Makes a City?" Rev. Walter Thornton, of Fulerton, Tom McFadden, of Placentia, was chairman. The main note of discord was uttered by the chairman, who said a fight was impending unless the city government changed its ways. Sidnam declared the klan had done more than the drought and the foot and mouth disease combined, to hurt prosperity.

They wish it distinctly understood that they are not expressing themselves on either side of the recall question. MILE IN 1:38 1-5.

For Oregon, it was a chance to show returning alumni that the team has snapped out of the football 16th-argy of the last few years and had a real team under Coach Maddock. Washington fears the elements may prevent her scoring machine from pounding through Oregon's line for touchdowns. And Oregon supporters are a bit skeptical whether the Lemon-Yellow can withstand the continued thrusts of George Wilson and Elmer Tesreau without sagging at the knees as the game goes on. The most sanguine Oregon rooters hoped for a tie score. It seemed too good, they said, that the somewhat green Oregon varsity might humble the high-powered Huky eleven. They were not ready to bet any money on it. Coach Maddock reported his entire team in the best shape of the season.

The building was described in some detail several months ago in these columns. No expense has been spared to make the interior and furnishings worthy of the structure as a whole. There are 12 single and eight double apartments, all outside. Each room has some special novelty, illustrating some new idea in comfort or convenience. The kitchen ware is of aluminum and good four-burner gas ranges, titled drain-boards and refrigerator, help to make the task of the housewife easier. The dining-rooms are each equipped with an extension table which can be enlarged by drawing it apart and pulling up some inside boards folded below. There is an excellent closet at hand and a convenient wall bed. The furniture is in the Italian style in all rooms. And the furnishings are done in different colors so as to give each apartment an individuality of its own. The living room of the double apartment also contains a wall bed, one which swings directly down to the floor, and there is a dressing room with chiffonier in which the occupant can avoid the chill of the morning. Even floor jamps have been provided in each apartment. The Marquisset curtains are an ornament. In the halls of each double apartment is a combined cooler, place for the ice and for scrapes, with openings from the outside as well as inside the rooms. The linen closets are nicely arranged. The bath-room measures some 6 by 12 feet, is tiled,tub set in the floor and embraces every convenience. The apartments will be known as the Rose Marie Apartments from the names of the two sisters, daughters of Mr. and Mrs. John Cassou, who will manage them.

Oregon Aggie fans, their spirits about as disconsolate as the bleak weather, were game enough today to laud the fighting Idaho Vandal team for the 22 to 0 they administered to O. A. C. here yesterday afternoon in a pouring rain. FINE WEATHER FOR TROJAN-BEAR GAME BERKELEY, Nov. 1—With only a few clouds floating about to back up the weather man's prediction of rain "before night," conditions were nearly ideal today as Univ. of So. Calif. arrived from Los Angeles to meet California in what promises to be the hardest fountain conference game to date this season. Colneident with the arrival of Elmer Henderson and 41 members of his Trojan squad, Andy Smith brought his Bears down from the mountain top, where they sought rest and inspiration in preparation for their crucial test today. The exact lineup that will start the game will be in doubt until the last minute. Both coaches are anxious to know just who will start on the rival team and for that reason are delaying their anouncements, each expecting to outwait the other. However, no surprises were expected to be sprung in the matter of the initial starters as both coaches realize they must put forth their best men on the front. "They shall not pass," was the slogan adopted by the Bears. "We are going to win," was the confident slogan of the Trojans. Los Angeles followers reported they had been unable to get up a large sum of money they brought with them from Los Angeles, indicating Bear supporters were dubious as to the outcome of the clash.

A. C. here yesterday afternoon in a pouring rain. Never before, say fans who have attended football games for years, have they seen a team forward pass as accurately and as successfully as the Vandals under such adverse weather conditions. Three touchdowns came in the first two periods, each on a long pass shot by "Skippy" Stivers, brilliant Van dal quarterback. Idaho completed 17 of 38 passes and made 341 yards by the aerial route. Stivers passed from behind his goal on his five yard line and whenever he took a notion. He kicked a field goal in the final period.

"We will simply put it up to California to take any action they believe right in Niswander's case," said H. J. Stonler, executive secretary of U.S.C. here today. "We have evidence which we believe shows that Niswander played on a professional football team in Selma in 1922, and that he participated in games at Solma, Visalia and Preserve professional football teams.

EXTENSION Three counties will be represented at the conference with officials of the Pacific Electric railway Nov. 5, C. of C. Secretaries Schoenthal of Riverside, Mack of San Bernardino, Robie of Corona and Isham of Redlands will meet with the Orange-co men, who will go from the harbor district, Santa Ana, Anaheim, Orange and Fullerton. The delegation will assemble in Los Angeles early Wednesday morning to suggest reorganization of the electric lines as follows: Electrification of the present steam road into Newport Beach from Santa Ana. A connection from Stern, Orange-co, to Corona, in Riverside-co. This link is about 15 miles in length and will give Riverside and San Bernardino-co direct connection with the harbor and Beach section of Orange-co. Another important connection to be urged is the link between Pullorton and Santa Ana by way of Anaheim and a short connecting link between Stern and Orange. Not a large amount of construction is required to cover all the suggested additions, but according to all who have studied the subject the changes will revolutionize the system, enormously increasing its efficiency and giving Orange and other counties the service to which they are rightfully entitled. 3 MEN TRY TO RAZE FLAG POLE Three men were found last night about 8:30 o'clock trying to pry the American Legion flagpole in the city park loose from its concrete base, according to a report made to Park Superintendent Guysi by W.H.Root,prak policeman.

While the baseball world is still trying to figure out whether or not Connie Mack really did pay $100,600 for Lefty Groves, star pitcher of the International league and a strikeout wonder, the Athletic leader injects new interest into the discussion by stating the reasons which prompted him to pay the aforesaid sum. Mack points out that the popularity of home run hitting is on the wane. He calls attention to the drawing powers of Dazzy Vance last season due to his wonderful strikeout performances. This is an indication of the trend of the baseball times he then avers. "The fans being tired of this terrific slamming, what is more natural than that the pendulum should swing to pitching. And to the average fans the pitcher who strikes them out is the most interesting man to watch," says Connie. And, acting on his belief he says, he promptly paid $100,600 for the strike-outgest pitcher in the minor leagues and the man who should be able to equal Dazzy Vance's performances in the majors if past records mean anything. Groves has fanned an average of over 200 batters a year over a span of five years with the Baltimore Orioles. His last strike-out victim last season was No. 1407. In fanning those 1100 men he won los games and lost but 26. His pitching helped Manager Jack Dunn of Baltimore to run his string of championship to six. Last season Groves won 25 games and lost but 8. He whiffed 230 batters. Mark believes that if Groves can find his strike next season, the fan the ball park to see Ken Williams. Bab the other home run .300 hitters. And a to the Athletic's ball turn that hundred nelles. One thing may haunt in the big show, he is wildness.
