HIJACKER" CONFESSES MURDER WOMEN TO PUSH CHILD LABOR LAW SACRAMENTO, Jan. 6.—Gov. Richardson today has selected Sen. Frank C. Weller of Glendale and Sen. Harry Chamberlin to introduce the joint resolution ratifying the federal child labor amendment tomorrow, he told Mrs. Ernest Wallace, representative of the California League of Women voters. SACRAMENTO, Jan. 6.—With the forces of Gov. Friend W. Richardson in control of the key posi- SANTA BARBARA, Jan. 6.—Irving Denton, branded by officers as a "hijacker," late today confessed he murdered George Turner, "king of California bootleggers," according to deputy sheriffs. Denton re-enacted the crime, according to the authorities, and told how he shot and killed Turner as he sat in his auto in a lonely grove near Summerland. Wm. Keefe, the officers said, was Turner's true name. His brother, Joseph Keefe, resides at 1416 East 16th-st, Oakland. Turner or Keefe, is survived by a wife and two children believed to be living in San Francisco. According to the confession said to have been made by Denton, Turner had quarreled with Denton over a liquor deal. Denton told the officers he killed Turner after the "bootleg king" drew a gun. Denton, the officers said, admitted he had followed Turner into the lonely eucalyptus grove, where he was killed, to watch a gunbattle between Turner and Los Angeles "hijackers" who planned to rob him of a whiskey cache. The man's confession was made, the officers claimed, after Herbert Thom, a Santa Barbara garage employee, went to the county jail and told a story which implicated Denton. Whether Thom, L. C. Buntin and Ben Hoffman, arrested with Denton in connection with Turner's death, would be held for further questioning, had not been decided by the authorities late today. All of the men were charged with being connected with a "hijacking gang." CONSIDER BIDS ON CLUB WATER SYSTEM According to a report from the executive offices of the Parkridge Country club, bids are now being considered from six responsible contractors for the installation of the complete water system for the club. The water will be boosted to a height of about 250 feet from a well near the club grounds which is owned by the club. It will be located on an elevation in about the center of the golf course. The system will be a circulating system and the main will be large CHILD LABOR LAW SACRAMENTO, Jan. 6.—Gov. Richardson today has selected Sen. Frank C. Weller of Glendale and sen. Harry Chamberlin to introduce the joint resolution ratifying the federal child labor amendment tomorrow, he told Mrs. Ernest Wallace, representative of the California League of Women voters. SACRAMENTO, Jan. 6.—With the forces of Gov. Friend W. Richardson in control of the key positions in both senate and assembly, following yesterday's hectic opening of the 46th California legislature, the program today called for a consolidation of the administration organization and then for the consideration of the usual quota of legislative business, including action on the joint resolution for ratification of the federal constitutional child labor amendment will take place as soon as Gov. Richardson, under the law, officially notifies the state legislature of the amendment's adoption by congress. The legislature will be urged by friends of the measure to ratify the amendment at once. Five assembly women are actively engaged in backing the child labor amendment. They are: Miss Eise Broughton, Miss Eleanor Miller, Mrs. Anna L. Saylor, Mrs. Grace Dorris and Mrs. Cora B. Woodbridge. Mrs. Woodbridge will offer the measure in the lower house, probably today, while at the same time it is introduced in the Senate by Sonators Herbert C. Jones, Daniel Murphy and J. M. Inman. Administration forces today were rejoicing at their victories in the legislature yesterday when they succeeded in electing Frank P. Merriam of Long Beach, speaker of the house, and Sen. Arthur H. Breed of Piedmont, president pro tem since 1922. In the senate Gov. Richardson's control seems to be beyond a doubt, but in the assembly he will at all times face an uncertain quantity, in spite of the election of his candidate to the speakership, observers declare, because of the strong so-called progressive faction which is outspokenly hostile to many of the governor's policies. "DON'T MARRY FOR MONEY" AT UNITED To the average girl the beau ideal of her dreams is a handsome man, wealthy enough to give her everything she wants, and in love with her to the exclusion of all else in his life. What a rare combination! And what a rarer consummation! Yet Marion Wighnueury (Ruby De Renier), who had a multi-millionaire husband—he was tall and handsome and loved her to die. Movements in the industrial area specially stocks were somewhat mixed in late tradings. Professionals were ready to sell on pro-taking and switching to other stocks resulted in simultaneous rallies and declines in stock equally popular as speculative mediums. Copper stocks responded to the boosting of copper metal to 15 cents a pound and metal shares generally reflected the advance prices of lead and tin. Equipment stocks rallied under the lead of Car and Found which sold up to 200 for a recovery of eight points from Monday close. Radio Corp. was compulsively quiet but the bulk of sales were made nearly two points above the opening price of 66.

Come early "DON'T MARRY FOR MONEY" AT UNITED To the average girl the bean ideal of her dreams is a handsome man, wealthy enough to give her everything she wants, and in love with her to the exclusion of all else in his life. What a rare combination! And what a rarer consummation! Yet Marlon Wightnuery (Ruby De Remer), who had a multi-millionaire husband—he was tall and handsome and loved her to distraction—was the unhappiest girl in the world. Not that she did not appreciate the bountiful gifts Dame Fortune had showered on her, for she did. He had taken her from a Fifth avenue shop, where she had been a shop girl, and might thankful for the job. But that little spark of celestial fire called conscience made her existence a joyless round of drab despair, because she had given herself—literally that—in marrying Peter Smith (House Peters) because of his wealth, with no thought of love, no urge but that of mercenary motives. With the girl in this unhappy mood, starring for sympathy, understanding, companionship, advice—not realizing her husband really loved her, a domestic drama has been fashioned, engrossing the interest and appealing to the heart of the average woman, in manner that has made "Don Marry for Money" one of the most highly praised pictures of the year. This is the attraction at the United theatre tonight and to morrow. House Peters, it goes without saying is superb in the role of the forceful, big business man, vibrant, virile, vigorous in courtship his sweetheart; yet humbly wished at the shrine of her beauty. Rubye De Remer matches this performance, while her gowns and her own gorgeous good looks are a thing of joy and of beauty forever. Others in the cast are Cyril Chadwick, Aliceen Pringle, Christine Mayo, Hank Mann, Lydia Knott and others. This is a splendid evening's entertainment; in fact, there is a wars a good show at the United Theatre. SELL YOUR NAVEL ORANGES FOR CASH TO KADAU FRUIT CO. ONE BLOCK EAST OF S. P.

According to a report from the officials, never in the history of the Corona club have the directors recommended any other similar affiliation. It is not the intent or idea to disfranchise or lose the identity of the Corona club through joining the Parkridge Country club. For the fact that the Parkridge club offers such outstanding additional benefits was warranted the Corona club to take memberships in the Parkridge Country club, was the expression of H.M. Key, secretary of the Corona club. SKELETON IN B. B. CLOSET RATILES NEW YORK, Jan. 6.—The O'Connell-Dolan skeleton in baseball's closet was playing castanets with its kneecaps today as a result of the action of Geo. Kelly and Sammy Bohne, of the Giants and Reds, respectively, in attempting to team up with the discredited Jimmy O'Connell on a Pacific Coast basketball team. The action indicated that all is not eau de cologne in Denmark and crystallized sentiment in favor of Judge Landis making public the complete testimony in baseball's latest scandal, something he has declined to do to date. Several minor leaguers were involved in the venture but that is of slight consequence. Neither is the fact that an attempt was made to evade the issue by having Kelly and O'Connell play alternate games nor that O'Connell was subsequently let out by the Coast management in order to save Kelly further embarrassment. The thing that has amuse the public right between them. BASKETBALL GETS UNDED WAY HERE Several basketball games have been arranged for this week by Coach Fitzmorris at the high school gym. Tonight the varsity anu first team from Huntington Park will play the first and second local teams. Wednesday night the Excelsior Union high varsity team will play here and Friday evening the local varsity will play a return game there. Regular track practice will begin next week. A little work is being done already, and a few boys are practicing baseball, too. Thirty girls now have come out for hockey, including the same bunch on last year's team, while the basketball girls are also making a hard try for places. Miss Jaques hopefuls will play the Santa Ana hockey team at the Pullerton high school some day next week. The teams of Long Beach, Pasadena, Glendale, River-side and Whittier College also are in the line of future combatants. The girls' coach regards this game as even better than basketball as exercise and a strength builder. But it's a more complicated game, and requires several seasons for proficiency. The game is superior in developing team work, says the coach. Under careful training it is not dangerous, in her opinion. Mildred Latourette has been chosen captain. She plays center half. The manager will be named within a few days. Practice is going on at least four times weekly. Class baseball practice has started in preparation for the class games the latter part of this month. Basketball is over except that a few games may be played with championship teams of other leagues: The winner in So. Calif.' won't be decided except unofficially. Miss Norma Brastad, manager, has issued four or five challenges to such teams. The San Diego team probably will meet the local county champs. NURMI WILL SHIP SPEED TONES NEW YORK, Jan. 6.

Neither is the fact that an attempt was made to evade the issue by having Kelly and O'Connell play alternate games nor that O'Connell was subsequently let out by the Coast management in order to save Kelly further embarrassment. The thing that smoke the public right between the eyebrows is that Kelly was one of three players absolved of complicity in the O'Connell business and that some 15 months ago Bohne was called upon the carpet to explain a story that appeared in a Chicago publication, charging him with attempted game jugglery at the behest of gamblers. Pat Duncan also was involved in the charges. He has been wafted out of the major leagues in the last month or so, for reasons not altogether clear. These are the men who planned to identify themselves with John A. Heydler terms "a self-confessed faker". If John has his way both will suffer suspension, even though it was only the spirit and not the letter of baseball's dignity that was flouted. But the end is not yet. JOHNSON WILL TRY AGAIN FOR CLUB RENO, Nev., Jan. 6.—Walter Johnson, famous American league pitcher, was back at his home here today, following his brief trip to California, where he tried unsuccessfully to purchase the Oakland club of the Pacific Coast league. He declared that he would keep on trying to buy a western ball club. "I realize that my playing days are about at the end of the string," Johnson said."and when I leave the Washington club, I want to stay out here in the west." The great ball player added that for the present his plans were indefinite. It is understood, however, that Johnson is still thinking over a reported offer made him by the Washington Senators, which he characterized late last week as "too good to be turned down without full consideration."

Valentino Seen Last Time Tonite PRESENTED BY ADOLPH ZUKOR JESSE LASEKI RUDOLPH VALENTINO AND NITA NALDI "A Sainted Devil," Rudolph Valentino's new production for Paramount, with Nita Naldi, Helen D'Alyk, Louise Lagrange, Dagmar Godowsky and others playing in support, was shown last night at the California Theatre and will play again tonight for the final time. The story is by Rex Beach, Joseph Henabery, who made "The Stranger," directed. "A Sainted Devil," is "The Sheik" and a sort of Spanish "Robin Hood" combined—a tenace, exciting love-drama, with the star in the role of a young Spaniard who roams South America in search for a notorious bandit who had stolen his bride on his wedding night. As Don Alonzo Castro, Valentino is the Valentino of old—the Valentino of "Blood and Sand," the Valentino of fans like to see. As the 'mysterious stranger' he terrorizes the country in his endless search for the bandit gang—and for revenge. None but Valentino could play such a role as he does this one. He loves and fights as only he can. And Nita—she's nearer than ever! Miss D'Alyg, practically a newscomer on the screen, is a sur-enough "find." Louise Lagrange, you remember her with Ernest Torrence in "The Side Show of Life," is also unusually well cast while Miss Godowsky has a high-power vamp part.

NURMI WILL SHOW SPEED TONIGHT NEW YORK, Jan. 6.—Paavo Nurmi, possessing the finest set of running legs in the history of athletics, will display his flying thanks before the American pubic for the first time tonight at Madison Square Garden in what has been termed "the race of the century." Just what race is referred to is not made clear. Nurmi will go to the post in two races, a mile and 5000 metre event, and in each he will take on the greatest runners on his side of the Atlantic. He will be a lone Finn against the flower of America's best yet the man who won four races at the Paris Olympics will have the crowd with him. He will find Willie Ritola, a fellow countryman waiting for the gun in the 5000-metre race but not with the extended hand of friendship. The compatriots are bitter enemies. On form alone, Nurmi would be an odds-on favorite to win both events. But with the existing conditions, the critics give Ritola better than an outside chance to beat Nurmi at 5000 metres and also look for the rejuvenated Joley Way to give the Finn the race of a life at the mile. Jimmy Conolly, Lloyd Hahn, Walter Higgs, Leo Larrivee and Lowendahl second rate field, make up the rest of the field in this race.

The Place To Buy Good Used Automobiles NO ROSY PATH TO FAME ON SCREEN Hard luck followed both Norma Talmadge and her leading man, Eugene O'Brien, during the filming of her latest picture; "The Only Woman," showing at the California tomorrow and Thursday. Many of the scenes, depicting a thrilling shipwreck in mid-ocean, called for unusually rigorous action on the part of the pair. As the picture will show, they are forced to cling to the frail railing of a yacht which is being tossed about like a feather while huge ocean waves sweep over them. The danger lay not only in being swept overboard, but also in exposure to the cold salt water. All one night the couple battled a fierce squall 50 miles out from Los Angeles and finally were compelled to abandon the yacht, which was washed up on the rocks of Catalina Island and was fast disintegrating. As a result of being soaked to the skin both Norma and O'Brien caught severe colds, as well as other members of the company of thirty which participated in the scenes. Eugene was threatened with pneumonia, and it was necessary to postpone the filming of the picture for a week, pending big recovery. More hard luck followed when later, an iron cable slipped from its fastening in the United Studies and struck Norma. Her injury was painful, but not serious, and after treatment at the Community Hospital she was enabled to continue with her work.
