ADMINISTRATION FOR OIL LEASES
WASHINGTON, Jan. 16.—Administration forces in the senate were being lined up today behind the Spencer minority oil report, which declares the famous naval oil leases saved the government millions of dollars.
The minority report filed by Sens. Smoot of Utah, Stanfield of Oregon, Bursum of New Mexico, Cameron of Arizona, and Spencer of Missouri. All Republicans denounced former Secy. of the Interior Fall, but absolved Former Secy. of the Navy Denby and his former assistant, Theodore Roosevelt of all charges of irrigularities. It also agrees that the Coolidge administration was not connected with the leases.
It is the administration's hope to substitutte he Spencer report for the majority report, filed by Sen. Walsh, Democrat of Montana when the senate finally disposes of the oil investigation next Monday.
The two reports clashed chiefly over Secy. Denby. The majority's report flayed Denby.
PLAYER ENTERS NEW CONTRACT

COUNTRY STORE PLEASES AUDIENCE
Andy's Country Store made its appearance to a capacity audience at the United Theater last night, and made a tremendous hit. We have witnessed many so-called country stores but last night, we enjoyed a real treat, as the real rube jokes, rube characters and rube music was in evidence from start to finish. And those who were lucky received arm loads of groceries, ranging from a bar of constable, was sure a hit of the soap to a ham, L. F. Kline, as the evening with his entertaining capers, his harmonica and harp music was a real treat. Of course Andy who runs the store was there, he sure knows his onions, and when it comes to leading a Rube Band he is there with bells on. The band was another hit of the show. We will sure welcome this Country Store, which Andy promises every Thursday night.
LANDIS SILENT
CHICAGO, Jan. 16.—Commissioner Kent saw M. Land's declined to state today whether or not he provided District Atty Banton of New York with the necessary evidence to prosecute O'Connell and Dolan for their part in the alleged deal to bribe Heinie Sand. Philadelphia shortstop, at the elimax of the 1924 season.
Banton had indicated that he would not take the initiative but was willing to prosecute if supported.
"I have no comment to make, none at all," was all Landis would say.
FOUR ESSENTIALS OF GAS ENGINE
Timing, ignition, caburctic compression are all necessary for a gas engine or tractor to function. If all these are good, the engine will start easily; if any one is faulty, the engine will start with difficulty, if at all. A farmer who is familiar with these four engines and the various things they affect them should have little fear of being able to shoot trouble with his tractor, gas engine, or automobile engine.
These things, together with methods of repair, adjustment, and maintenance of tractors and engines will be given prominence in the one-week tractor school while the Agricultural Extension Service and the Farm Bureau will conduct at the Santa Ana High School shops January 19th to 23rd.
All standard makes of tractors are being supplied by their respective dealers, to be used for institutional purposes. This will give the man who is proposing to buy a tractor for the first time, chance to familiarize himself with the construction and maintenance of the make he has in mind.
Applications are to be made by tractor owners who desire to enter their tractor at the school to be repaired by them under the supervision of the instructors in charge. Two or three more used tractors may be entered, provided application is made at the Farm Advisor office.

SEEK AMENDMENT
An amendment to the present law governing incorporation of unincorporated communities urged by the Placentia C. of C which in a letter signed by Secretary Charles E. Lee asks other organizations to endorse the change.
Secretary Lee says that "My town can incorporate under the present law." The Associated C. of C already has endorsed the amendment.
The latter would provide that contrary to the present law ranches and outside acreage must be included within the proposed territorial bounds.
This was the bone of contention in La Habra, the opponents to the corporation since accomplished declaring that acreage should not be included.

RMI WILL RACE NOIE RAY TONITE
NEW YORK, Jan. 16.—With more world’s records salted in the athletic liturgy, Paavo Hirschi today is speeding west to go, where tonight at the annual games of the Illinois A.C., will give Jole Ray one more chance to lead him to the tape, two great runners will meet special mile and three-quarter race, and from what it saw of New York is convinced that it is in for another beating. Running away off by himself, he established new records for the three quarters, 3000 yards, and 1½ mile. He was at the first distance in 8:25, the second in 8:26 4-5, the third in 8:29. The former officials were the property of Ray Nurmi ran quite with competition, Willie Ritola beaten by 75 yards and Vern Imar Prim and Gunnar being lapped.

No cause had been today for the fire, but it was defective electric wiring only started it.
LEONARD RETIRES
NEW YORK, Jan. 16.—Benny Leonard, lightweight champion of the world, has quit the ring, he announced today, “because his mother had begged him not to fight again.”
“I am retiring from boxing for the love of my mother,” Leonard said.
Leonard became lightweight champion in 1917 when he beat Freddie Welch. He has been one of the most popular champions of all time.
Announcement of Leonards retirement from boxing will cause the holding of a lightweight championship elimination tournament to determine his successor is the opinion expressed in boxing circles here.
Kid Kaplan, selected in such a manner to succeed Johnny Dunede is recognized as champion here, but many localities have not concurred.
Leonard’s retirement leaves the field open to several of the leading contenders who include Sid Tris, New York, Sammy Mandell, Rockford, Ill.; Jack Bernstein, Yonkers, N.Y.; Tomy Zivic, Pittsburgh, altho doubt is expressed that the latter can make the weight.
3 DIE IN WRECK
ROCHESTER, N.Y., Jan. 16.—Three persons returning from a dance at Williamson, were killed today when an eastbound New York Central freight train sturck their automobile at the Penfield road crossing a few miles from here.

Mrs. Lillian Deruyscher, 40; Thes. Oster, 48; Oscar J. Calbelfisch, 57, all of this city.
Miss Bertha McDowell, who was riding in the rear seat, escaped unharmed.
A westbound train had just passed the crossing when the eastbound train crashed into the car. This automobile was tossed against a telephone pole and took fire with Mrs. Deruyscher in the wreckage.
STOCKS FREELY SUPPLIED TODAY
NEW YORK, Jan. 16.—The stock market made little progress today in regaining the ground lost in the reactions of the two preceding sessions. Stocks were freely supplied thrust most of the session and sizeable rallies in any of the prominent speculative leaders was a signal for heavy selling in that section of the market.
Long traders appeared to be anxious to make profits and the bears seized the opportunity to mark prices down the stocks holding a commanding position in the market.
In general the market exhibited the same indications on underlying strength as in recent sessions. There were plenty of buying orders just under the market.
Trading was dull on reactions. Sales were mostly in small blocks with no large liquidation of thousand share lots such as is seen in a demoralized market.
There was little disposition to take losses on stocks bought at the high levels of Tuesday and Wednesday and comparatively little shrinkage in prices in independent oil shares which were the leaders in that movement.
The reactionary tendencies extended thru to the bond market, the foreign exchange market and to a smaller degree, the cotton market.
Grain was the first to show a recovery. The St. Paul stocks and bonds suffered a relapse as a result of President Byram’s admission that the road recognized the critical position in which it was placed by the failure to earn its expenses last year and the problem of refunding a $48,000,000 bond issue in June. But nothing of an alarming nature was disclosed by Mr. Byram’s statements.
The standard railroad, industrial motor and equipment stocks were inactive rather than weak today.
Stock sales today 1,859,800 shares; bonds $13,180,000.

UDITORIUM
Practically every service club in Orange county will observe National Thrift Week in its meeting during the week of January 17 to 23. Rotary, Kiwanis, Lions, Exchange and the others, all are planning program to emphasize the thrift idea. This week of Thrift propaganda, promoted all over the land by the Y. M. C. A. attracts favorable attention on the part of all people who are interested in getting ahead, and in helping others on the way.
National Thrift Week, instituted some seven or eight years ago by the Y. M. C. A., primarily for its own members, to help them get ahead in life has been adopted more than forty different organizations as a worthy project, and a National Thrift Week Committee, which directs the annual celebration of this event is made up of representatives from these organizations which co-operate with the Y. M. C. A. advocating the principles of Benjamin Franklin, the great apotheke of thrift.
According to Alex Brownridge of the Farmers and Merchants Bank of Santa Ana, and an enthusiastic member of the local Thrift Week Committee, there has been a great increase in savings in America in the last few years, and this increase is in no small degree one to the Thrift Week Idea.
"Figures recently issued by the American Bankers Association," says Brownridge, "indicate that the people of the United States have this year two and one-half times as much money in the savings banks as they and in 1912, and more than three times as many savings depositors as at that time. Better yet, our core capita savings has more than doubled. During the last 12 years the total savings deposits of the United States increases. At the rate of more than one billion dollars a year. At present, the total amount held in savings accounts in the United States is nearly twenty-one billions of dollars. This would seem to indicate that the Thrift Idea has taken firm hold of the minds of the American people, in spite of their supposed notorious extravagance."
This talk of preferring smaller items to consumption is but the invisible of the braggars.

CAPACITY HOUSE FOR BOUT TONIGHT
NEW YORK, Jan. 16.—In the fond expectation, typical of this enlightened day and age, that one or the other of the principals will be carried out of the ring feet first the greatest crowd of the indoor moving season will grace the occasion at the meeting of Tiger Flowers and Jack Delaney at Madison Square Garden tonight. You couldn't keep them away with a board of health handbill.
Flowers, a polite colored gent in every day life, suddenly reverts to the berserk fetish of the African Jungles when the time keeper rings his bell. Delaney is a natty boxer with a crushing right hand punch. Nother man seems to be able to laugh off a punch. The inference is obvious.
It is that tonight's proceedings have slight chance of lasting the scheduled limit of 12 rounds, therefore, the merry vauces have acted accordingly. As early as yesterday morning there was not a reserved seat for sale at the Garden.

GIRLS JAZZ BAND AT CALIFORNIA SUN.
There is a very nice treat for lovers of good music at the California Theater next Sunday only. The management have booked "The Golden West Symphonettes," eight beautiful girls in a real jazz band. These accomplished young ladies have made a tremendous big hit wherever they have played and are coming to Anaheim direct from the Forum Theater in Los Angeles where they have just completed a successful two weeks engagement.
Universal Pictures Corporation obtained a "corner" on some of the screen's finest character artists when it selected the cast to support Reginald Denny, star in "Oh Doctor!" Universal-Jewel coming to the California Theater for Sunday only. The picture is the screen version of the celebrated Saturday Evening Post serial of the same name, written by Harry Leon Wilson, and was directed by Harry Pollard who directed Denny in "Sporting Youth," "The Reckless Age" and the first series of "The Leather Pushers."
"Oh Doctor!" is the story of a young man who, since childhood had been coddled and nursed and made to believe that only by the greatest care could he live. Through a series of humorous events the story emphasizes the manner of life he leads.
An aunt who has little patience with his fears endeavors to restore him to normal condition of mind. Then comes the necessity of borrowing enough money to permit him to remain ill in luxury and to die in luxury. He will inherit a considerable fortune if he lives three years and after three old Shvlocks have been combined.
