AUDITORIUM "Smilin' Through" JAN. 16th at 8 p.m. 35c and 50c Seats Reserved at Kemp's Pharmacy DENIES TOURISTS SEVERELY TAXED SACRAMENTO, Jan. 14.—Emphatic denial that "tourists in California are taxed from the time they enter the state to the time they leave it," was made today by M. D. Lack, member of the state board of equalization, in response to stories widely published in the East regarding the new securities tax law adopted by the people at the last state election. Lack said that the meaning of the "hidden securities" act which was Number 9 on the ballot, last November, had been directly misconstrued and that its actual essential was to reduce, rather than increase, taxes on foreign securities. He also stated that non-residents of the state were subject to no tax whatever on their securities or other possessions during visits here. Lack's statement was in part as follows: "Articles in papers of neighboring states under a California date line warning tourists that they can be taxed in California on all they own," under a new law reads like propaganda. A charitable view of the matter makes it preferable to believe that the statements were because of ignorance of the facts. BUYS GROCERY R. A. Drummond and wife of So.

BELIEVE LEONARD THRU WITH RING NEW YORK, Jan. 14. — Followers of boxing today expressed the conviction that Benny Leonard is thru with the ring, upon learning that the lightweight champion will open a vaudeville engagement of 15 weeks in Chicago on Monday. Leonard is recuperating from a recent illness at Lakewood, N. J., and the claim was made that, if he seriously intended re-eatering the ring, he would not imperil his health by plunging into stage SARGUM PROUTINGS It begins to appear as if the wrestling fans are not going to witness any great matches in Los Angeles as planned. The past activities of the promoters has the game in Dutch with the commission and the commission can not be blamed. Take the matches of a few months back, the cards were all stacked. Not that Lewis was not the best man but he could have defeated Zysako or Mondt first time that they met. Instead he carried them through to a draw for the "big house" at the finish matches. Daro, as promotor, might not have been in on the frame-up but he knew that Lewis was not doing his best. Daro was the man to get the game in so bad at Long Beach. The newly appointed commission cannot afford to license such promotors. When a promotor or organization convinces the commission that he or they are sincere and will see to it that the wrestling contests are real and not faked then the commission will be willing to grant licenses for wrestling. "Big" Munn is starting off like a real champion. He has agreed to wrestle in Oklahoma City, between the 20th and 25th, and the promotor is to pick the opponent. Now, that is rea lchampionship stuff. If a champion is a champion what does he care who he meets as long as the public pays the bill? When the wrestlers learn to go on the mat and wrestle for all they are worth, wrestling will come into popularity. The strict rules that govern baseball players should be put in force with wrestlers. If any match appears shady, black-list the wrestlers taking part for all time. TAKE PROFITS OF STOCKS AND G NEW YORK, Jan. 14. relative markets were incrost on their oars today to profit taking in grain and to consolidate the position stocks in the major particularly in the oil, meat equipment stocks. Large speculative stocks were put sale by traders who were to convert paper profits in and this had the effect up the rally in prices which did not increase since Tuesday of last But buying demand was still to form a good cushion on dropping prices of leading trial stocks and declines small by comparison with the advances made since the year. The action of the money was not helpful to the bus-money opening at three point but being marked up to fore noon. Time money was er and bond prices showed dency to decline. Sterl change had a good record, being shaply from its early larity. Favorable industry furnished by the steel, copi oil industries and compi prices were inclined higher.

That American Car and Fam and American Locomotive amalgamate were not get credited. Stock sales today 2.0 shares; bonds $14,920,000. BELIEVE LEONARD THRU WITH RING NEW YORK, Jan. 14.—Followers of boxing today expressed the conviction that Benny Leonard is thru with the ring, upon learning that the lightweight champion will open a vaudeville engagement of 15 weeks in Chicago on Monday. Leonard is recuperating from a recent illness at Lakewood, N.J., and the claim made that, if he seriously intended re-entering the ring, he would not imperil his health by plunging into stage work so soon after his recovery. It is understood that Leonard will issue a public statement of his intentions some time today or tomorrow. McLARNIN CLAIMS FLYWEIGHT TITLE LOS ANGELES, Jan. 14.—Jimmy McLarnin of Oakland was claiming the flyweight title of the Pacific coast today as a result of his 10-round bout last night at Jack Doyle's Vernon arena when he coped a decision from Fidel La Barba of Los Angeles, former amateur champion. The decision was unpopular with many of the 10,000 fans who watched McLarnin pile up a comfortable lead in the first six rounds only to take a lacing in the four closing cantos. TERRIS FAILS TO SHOW CHAMP STUFF NEW YORK, Jan. 14.—It was the consensus of opinion today that Sid Terris, hailed as the leading contender for Benny Leonard's title, had failed to imitate a championship possibility in gaining a close decision over Jimmy Goodrich of Buffalo at the end of 12 rounds last night. After being outstopped in the early rounds, Goodrich rallied and carried the fight to Terris, whose dancing tactics were pretty but not altogether effective. Many thought that Goodrich was entitled to a draw. GIBBONS BATTLES FIRPO MARCH 30 LONDON, Jan. 14.—The Gibbs-Firpo match is practically a certainty for March 30, the Daily Mail announced today. The contest promises to be the biggest fight Great Britain has had, the Mall adds, since Peter Jackson fought Frank Slavin in 1892. LAST NIGHT'S FIGHTS AT CONNELLSVILLE, Pa.—Cuddy DeMarce, charlerol lightweight, trimmed Franklin Bull of Toronto, 10 rounds; Johnny Donnelly of Cumberland beat Billy Carter of Connellsville; Jim Pollock of Connellsville knocked out Joe Levinsky. AT CLEVELAND — Charlie O'Connell of Cleveland won from Archibald Walker of New York. BETWEEN THE 20th AND 21st, and the promoter is to pick the opponent. Now, that is rea lechampionship stuff. If a champion is a champion what does he care who he meets as long as the public pays the bill? When the wrestlers learn to go on the mat and wrestle for all they are worth, wrestling will come in popularity. The strict rules that govern baseball players should be put in force with wrestlers. If any match appears shady, black-list the wrestlers taking part for all time. O'Connell, the San Francisco lad, that was a sensation in the Coast League three seasons back and who was ousted for attempted bribery in the recent National Pennant race, is finding the way of the transgressor a hard way to travel these days. He not only finds the doors of baseball shut to him but all lines of sports. He attempted to play basketball but was frozen out when the powers that be learned of his intention. Other professional ballplayers must shun him as a leaper. It would appear that the penalty is too great but it must be so to keep the game clean. Hal Chase, a California lad and the greatest first baseman that ever lived, knows the fate of the unclean ball player. Hal is not even allowed the privilege of witnessing a game if his identity is known. What punishment could be greater? Tex Rickard sorta startled the fight fan world with his all star fighters selections. He selected ten for each class. He gives Jack Dempsey honorary position at the top of the heavyweights but hints that the honor is not deserved as Dempsey has not defended the honor for over a year. He places Harry Wills next and Tommy Gibbons third. He places the once great Firpo in the seventh spot and that is a long way down the line when you consider the present crop of heavy weights. He places Gene Tunny at the top of the lightheavies with young Stribbling second and the title holder, Mike McTigue, third. Of course Grebb is the class of the middleweights. The surprise is the ranking of "Tiger" Flowers, who is placed second. Flowers was practically unknown a few weeks ago but his rise has been sensational. Bert Colima is given the eighth spot in this class. Benny Leonard's closest rival, according to the great promoter, is Sid Terris with Sammy Mandell a close third. The fight world will soon be governed by commissions that will force champions of each class to defend their titles at last once a year and all legitimate contenders given a chance. When that time comes the men at the head of the different divisions will be real champions. There will be more real fighters and more interest. Baldwin mounted to 186; highest price since 1923; Ian Locomotive gained points and sold up to 119; highest price since record present stock; American and Foundry was up two; and Lima Locomotive on a turnover sold up nearly four to a new high at 74%; That American Car and Ford and American Locomotive amalgamate were not get credited.

MURMI COMPLETES TRAINING TODAY NEW YORK, Jan. 14.—Paavo Nurmi will complete his training today for the most difficult assignment ever laid out for a modern athlete, the running of three races on three consecutive nights in cities separated by upward of a thousand miles. Nurmi will compete against Willie Ritola and others in the 2000 meters weeks ago but his rise has been sensational. Bert Colima is given the eighth spot in this class. Benny Leonard's closest rival, according to the great promotor, is Sid Terris with Sammy Mandell a close third. The fight world will soon be governed by commissions that will force champions of each class to defend their titles at last once a year and all legitimate contenders given a chance. When time comes the men at the head of the different divisions will be real champions. There will be more real fighters and more interest taken in the game. Encouraged by the victory of the ten-round fight measure the backers of horse racing are framing a bill to present to the people to bring horse racing back. Betless racing has proven a failure in California, and if the sport is ever to flourish again it must be along the old lines of betting. Horse racing, like wrestling is under a ban on account of the crookedness that has been practiced. Anyone that attends the Tia Juana races comes back with the idea that all is not just up and above board. While horse racing is the sport of kings it will never come back in California. Will Jack Delany stop the rush of "Tiger" Flowers as he did Paul Berlenback? They are to meet Friday night in New York in a 15-round fight. Flowers has been speeding to the top as Did Berlenback. Delany stopped Berlenback and may do the same to Flowers. May be the public will soon know just who will own the Vernon Tigers in the coming race. The Tigers have been sold every year for the last half dozen and yet Eddie Maier had to pay the salaries. Eddie has been ill and may really sell this time. If so, we hope that it's Walt Johnson who takes his place.

Large blocks of speculative stocks were put up for sale by traders who were anxious to convert paper profits into cash and this had the effect of holding up the rally in prices which has been in progress without interruption since Tuesday of last week but buying demand was sufficient to form a good cushion under the dropping prices of leading industrial stocks and declines were small by comparison with the swift advances made since the turn of the year. The action of the money market was not helpful to the bulls, call money opening at three per cent, but being marked up to 3½ before noon.

Snodgrass, the "king of the ivories," and idol of the country's radio fans, was writing his farewell speech today. Tonight at station WOS, which for him unlocked the doors to fame and wealth, Snodgrass will bid his invisible audience goodbye. He will play its favorite pieces and then "sign off" permanently. He will also "sign off" with the prison orchestra, for on Friday morning a new life will start for him. It will be the life of a highly paid artist. Snodgrass' departure from prison, like his rise to fame here, will be unparalleled. He will rise forth in an automobile assembled by experienced prison mechanics from parts received from virtually all sections of the United States. From Texas came the steering wheel from Arizona, the carbureter; Ohio radio fans sent the tires; Michigan the blocks; Chicago the ton, and the remaining parts came like a shower from every point of the compass. With him, as passengers in his "radio filiver" will be Mrs. Snodgrass and their 8-year-old son, to say nothing of a bank roll estimated at $6000. Gov. Sam A. Baker summoned Snodgrass to his office late yesterday, congratulated him and wished him success. The governor then added the warning that if Snodgrass ever got back into the Missouri prison, he would not be allowed the privilege of playing with the prison orchestra or for station WOS. Snodgrass will start his vaudeville tour at Evansville, Ind., Jan. 18. Don M. Witten, chief announcer for station WOS, will also, "sign off" tonight. He will accompany Snodgrass as his manager at $150 a week.
