MEN VOTE FOR TAX Orange-co supervisors voted with the majority at the state convention of supervisors at Sacramento last week on a resolution that was passed favoring an increase in the gasoline tax of one cent and the raising of the license fee from $3 to $5, it was reported at Santa Ana today. It was provided in the gasoline tax resolution, however, that the additional money should be expended toward improving the four truck laterals leading from Yuca, Needles, Big Pine and Truieee. Supervisor Leon Whitsell of Villa Park was instrumental in FUNNIEST COMEDY EVER AT UNITED "His Darker Self," the feature length comedy starring Lloyd Hamilton, which will show at the United theatre tonight and tomorrow, represents the first serious effort to bring the blackface art to the screen. Never before has it been done in a feature-length production. For years audiences have laughed over the antics of black-faced comedians on the stage. The public never tires of them. Their humor never grows stale. D.W. Griffith, pioneer of the films, believed that the art of blackface could hold as important a place on the screen as it has on the stage. To prove his theory Griffith planned to make the pic- ANOTHER CHAMPION MUST BE CREATE NEW YORK, Jan. 20—Benny Leonard's formal drawal at hand, the state letie commission tomorrow begin the business of creating another laboratory champion ter the manner of Kid Kapel elevation to the featherwedge pinnacle.

A few faint bleats have registered over the selection candidates for recent feast weight tournament, some souls maintaining that commission took the precauce to go blindfolded into a hole in order to pick its Be that as it may the face mains that the boxers were in the top flight of division. The latter merely turned a bit sour in champ ship class. The same is true of weights. There is no Leon among them; not even a Ri Mitchell, a Charley White, a Tendler or a Rocky Kansas, toiders of a few years ago, such as they are, they produce the best of the clans. ZIVIC STEP NEAR PITTSBURGH, Pa. Jan. 21 Jack Zivic of Pittsburgh left-ed his way one step nearer title left open by Benny Leont with the majority at the state convention of supervisors at Sacramento last week on a resolution that was passed favoring an increase in the gasoline tax of one cent and the raising of the license fee from $2 to $5, it was reported at Santa Ana today. It was provided in the gasoline tax resolution, however, that the additional money should be expended toward improving the four truck laterals leading from Yueh, Needles, Big Pine and Truckee. Supervisor Leon Whitsell of Villa Park was instrumental in getting state supervisorial approval of an intensive campaign to rid the state, and particularly the northern counties, of the citrus fly. Whitsell brought the matter forward acting as chairman of a committee on the fly campaign appointed by G. H. Hecke, state director of agriculture. In an endeavor to get an appropriation for the eradication work a bill was ordered prepared, this to be presented to Assemblyman Hartrault of Fullerton for reading on the floor of the house. Canvas of the recent La Habra incorporation vote was a duty that had been completed by the supervisors today. Canvas was being mailed to the secretary of state. As soon as the result is recorded by the state official, the city automatically will be privileged to function as an incorporated municipality, it was announced. Selection of Dr. Everitt S. Bolee, one of the members elected to the board of trustees, as mayor of La Habra, also was announced to the supervisors.

WALKER, Agent MELLON WILL TALK UPON CALIF. CASE WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.—A detailed statement by Secretary Melton on the California community property tax question will be made public today, treasury authorities promised. It is not yet known whether this statement will take up the income tax question or will be confined to the matter of inheritances. Officials pointed out that recognition of the community property tax for inheritance taxes does not necessarily imply the same interpretation for income. It is understood that Secretary Melton is expecting additional information from Atty, Gen. Stone before issuing a statement. FUGITIVE SUSPECT ELIZABETH, N. J., Jan. 20.—Edward Ryan, known by several aliases, was held in $20,000 bail today in police court, charged with being a fugitive from justice in Tacoma, Wash. He pleaded guilty to carrying concealed weapons and was held for the grand jury. Police said Ryan told them he escaped from the Walla Walla, Wash., penitentiary Oct. 12, 1922, after having served eight months of a 10 to 20-year term for robbing the State Bank of Eatonville, Wash., of $20,000. He admitted, also, they said, having served five years in a Canadian prison for a Montreal, Quebec, bank robbery. The same is true of weights. There is no Leo among them; not even a Rile Mitchell, a Charley White, a Tendler or a Rocky Kansas, holders of a few years ago, such as they are, they produce the best of the class. ZIVIC STEP NEAR PITTSBURGH, Pa. Jan. 21 Jack Zivie of Pittsburgh left his way one step nearer title left open by Benny Leo last night when two minutes and 48 seconds of the round, he forced the second Lew Tendler of Philadelphia toss a towel into the ring as to defeat. The wet rag came hurtling the arena at the count of three Tendler's second knockdown the round. He had been legged the round until Zivie sent sprawling with a left hook. Was no doubt of the power bar that punch as Lew lay on knees swaying until at the end of seven he arose, again bludgeoned down Then Reisfield, Tendler's friend boyhood, threw the sopping into the ring. In the third Tendler slipping the floor for a second affliction but was up in a flash. Tendler fought at 138 pts and Zivie at 141. After the Zivie's manager announced Jimmy DeForest would be gagged to bring Zivie down to pounds.

SPORTS DONE BROWN BY NORMAN E. BROWN Sing a song of champions, Posers in the ring, Get a million snackers; Never do a thing. Walker's bout with Michael In the latest frost, Wann't worth the dough that fans Forked up to pay the cost. Right now sundry gentlemen who look the view that Mickey Walker, welterweight champion, was one of the master figures of the day, a real champion, etc., are busy trying to explain his punk showing against Mike McTigue, holder of the minor, though heavier title of light heavyweight. Walker won a decision over McTigue by outpointing him. It wasn't because Walker's work was clever but because Mike's was worse than Mickey's. Walker's hitting was crude at times, wild at other times, and ineffectual at all times. How he can hope to stand off Henny Leonard after such a showing is a mystery. Of course, there may be some deep-laid plot on foot whereby Walker was to take it easy against Mike to induce other prominent gentlemen that he isn't much. But such a move would be poor business. His showing against McTigue makes him worth less as a drawing card than he was before that battle. It may be, too, that Walker was off form. Perhaps he was too heavy to be at his best. We can dig up a lot of alibis for him. But the fact remains that he showed nothing in that battle to warrant statements that he is a great fighter. He has set to prove his right to be classed with the great men of his division. Two steps have been taken in recent days to lengthen the coming summer season, regardless of the weather forecasts for the year. First of all the big league schedule makers tacked another week into the baseball season by extending the closing time of the campaign to Oct. 4. This automatically moves the world's series that much farther into the fall. Then the stewards of the grand circuit, at their annual meeting in Cleveland, accepted a schedule that calls for the opening of the season at North Randall track June 22, an earlier opening date than the circuit has had in late years at least. The length of the racing season is stretched a week, partly to admit Atlanta, Ga., and give it five days of racing in October, after the last Lexington meet. Speaking of the grand circuiters, the stewards made a popular move (popular with everyone but the drivers) when they gave the judges some power to back up their efforts to discipline unruly, unwise and unscrupulous drivers. The judges can now fine a driver for disobedience and substitute another for him to finish the race. Every penalty imposed on a driver at one meeting will be recognized at every other meeting of the circuit until the penalty has been modified, reversed or set aside. The Grand Circuit has always been conducted on a sportmanship basis. Most of the men connected with it have been governed willingly by the unwritten rules of good sportsmanship. Failure of a scattering minority to live up to the high standards of fairness set by President Deverux, Secretary Kinnan and the veteran and prominent members of the organizations has worked hardship on others, however. It is to handle these rare occasions that the power of the officials was increased. OTHER CHAMP MUST BE CREATED NEW YORK, Jan. 20—With many Leonard's formal withdrawal at hand, the state athletics commission tomorrow will in the business of creating another laboratory champion at the manner of Kid Kaplan's intention to the featherweight race. Our worthy commission plans to promote a lightweight elimination tournament, it is understood will deter the new champion from the swing material: Terris, New York; Sammy Bell, Rockford, Ill.; Jo-nee Lee, Baltimore; Jack Bernie, Yonkers; Charlie O'Concledgale; Johnny Leonard, Stowton, Pa.; Louis Vincentini, St. and Sammy Goodrich, Palo. Few faint bleats have been uttered over the selection of updates for recent featherlight tournament, some capable souls maintaining that themission took the precaution to blindfolded into a coal in order to pick its men, that as it may the fact reuses that the boxers named in the top flight of the nation. The latter merely has used a bit sour in champion-class. The same is true of light-ights. There is no Leonard them; not even a Ritchie Shell, a Charley White, a Lew Miller or a Rocky Kansas, concludes of a few year ago. But as they are, they probably the best of the class. VIC STEP NEARER TISBURGH, Pa. Jan. 20—Zivile of Pittsburgh left-hook-is way one step nearer the left open by Benny Leonard UNIV. OF OREGON SEEKING MADIGAN PORTLAND, Ore., Jan. 20.—"Madigan for coach." Adherents were rallying almost to a man behind the St. Mary's college mentor as Portland alumni members of the U. of Oregon prepared their plans for a big meeting here tonight, at which time the entire coaching system at Oregon will be threshed out. The issue today appeared draws between young alumni members who want a coach versed in modern tactical methods, such as employed by Madigan and the "old guard" who believe Dick Smith, who last coached football in 1904, is the man. Alltho the great share of those who are opposed to Smith's selection are actively back of "Slip" Madigan, the names of "Nibs" Price, backfield coach of California, and Moe Sax, ex-Oregon player and coach of the championship Lincoln high school team of Portland, are also mentioned. Portland alumni were determined at tonight's meeting to make it plain that Oregon cannot expect to defeat California and Stanford unless a high class coach, versed in deceptive offensive football, is employed. Virgil Earl, athletic director at Oregon, did not recommend a successor to Coach Maddock at a meeting of the executive council of Eugene student body yesterday. In company with Graduate Manager Benefiel and Randall Jones, president of the Associated Students, Earl will arrive here for the general meeting of the alumni tonight. Oregon athletic officials are eager to employ a coach as soon as spring practice can be started. It is quite certain a selection will be made by the athletic council Wednesday afternoon and submitted for final approval of the executive council that night. STOCKS DULLEST IN TWO MONTHS NEW YORK, Jan. 20.—Reactionary conditions prevailed in the stock market today. The session was one of the most inactive in the last two months, due in some measure to the fact that many large commission houses were out of touch with western points because of wire trouble. This gave the bears the opportunity to ferret out weak spots in the speculative list and to concentrate selling where stock appeared to be dislodged. Their efforts were not successful and the market developed the condition of a stalemate, as it evidenced by the fact that only 792,000 shares of stock changed hands in the first three hours. A god part of the blame for the heavy selling or stocks in the last few days has been placed at the door of the commission houses in Wall Street, who have been advising their customers to take profits and await reactions. However, profitable this may be for the traders, it certainly is profitable for those who have an eye on commissions. Some of the prominent economic agencies also have been issuing bearish statements for the short range; though bullish for the "long pull." Announcement of additional price advances in gasoline and rumors of forthcoming advances in crude oil prices were without apparent effect on the oil stocks, except to save them from depression in the heavy selling movement which took place immediately after the opening of the market. The halting of the forward movement in the low priced stocks, was due in large measure to the temporary withdrawal of western buying orders. New forward movements were started in the fourth hour in a few of the specialties and industrials. Commercial solvents A VIC STEP NEARER TITSBURGH, Pa. Jan. 20.—Zivie of Pittsburgh left-hook-its way one step nearer the left open by Benny Leonard night when after two min- and 48 seconds of the fifth, he forced the seconds of Tendler of Philadelphia to a towel into the ring as token defeat. The wet rag came hurtling into arena at the count of three on Tendler's second knockdown of round. He had been leading ground until Zivie sent him twirling with a left hook. There no doubt of the power behind punch as Lew lay on his swaying until at the count even he arose, again to be begeared down. Then Jack Field, Tendler's friend sincehood, threw the sopping rag the ring. The third Tender slipped to floor for a second after a but was up in a flash. Tendler fought at 138 pounds Zivie at 141. After the fight, it's manager announced that Tony DeForest would be en-DED to bring Zivie down to 135 pounds.

For Wednesday and Thursday in conjunction with "The Dixie Handicap," the great romance of the Kentucky turf, the management of the California theatre has booked "Tricky Patsy," the world's most wonderful trained pony, who will do tricks on the stage, the like of which you have never seen before. Patsy is owned by C. S. Chillison of Placerville, Calif., who also trained him and he comes as near being human as it is possible for a pony to become. This is indeed a rare treat and you are cheating yourself if you miss it. TURNER WILL PLAY NOVEL FILM SONG George T. Turner, concert organist at the California, has a big surprise novelty for the patrons of Anaheim's beautiful picture palace for Wednesday and Thursday. He will play as a screen song that latest popular hit, "All Alone." Heretofore all screen songs have been played with slides, but this one is different, the words being on the same kind of film that the pictures are. DIXIE HANDICAP" RACING ROMANCE A racing story that has interest for all is the promise made for "The Dixie Handicap." Reginald Barker's newest Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer production, which is coming to the California theatre for Wednesday and Thursday. This picture is said to contain some of the most exciting horse race scenes ever filmed and at the same time tells a beautiful love story. "The Dixie Handicap" is a film version of "Dixie," a story by Gerald Beaumont, which appeared in the Red Book magazine, and in its screen form is reported to follow the original idea very closely and add an extra thrill by presenting the racing scenes in authentic locations. Mr. Barker took a company all the way from the Culver City studios to Laonia, Ky., to film the climax during the running of the International stakes in which Epinard, the French champion, lost. Frank Keenan, who has often appeared as a southern gentleman, has the leading role, that of Judge Jeffrey Roberts, a man of aristocratic birth who has fallen into TURNER WILL PLAY NOVEL FILM SONG George T. Turner, concert organist at the California, has a big surprise novelty for the patrons of Anaheim's beautiful picture palace for Wednesday and Thursday. He will play as a screen song, that latest popular hit, "All Alone." Heretofore all screen songs have been played with slides, but this one is different, the words being on the same kind of film that the pictures are. These have been tried out in the east and have met with great success there. This special film song is coming here direct from the Criterion theatre in Los Angeles, where it sure created a sensation among theatre-goers. "Wife of the Centaur" Clever Entertainment To those captious, cinematic critics who are always decrying the lack of "Intelligence" in pictures, the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Co. might well say: "See 'Wife of the Centaur.'" This picturization of Cyril Hume's sensational novel opened last night at the California theatre, and will be shown for the last time tonight. The story—instead of a familiar plot—is based upon a serious theory; the theory being that every man is a "centaur," that he is half beast and half man, a battlefield in which the war of conflicting emotions is always being waged. Hume's story has been transposed to the screen faithfully by King Vidor, and told with all that director's skill. Gilbert, in his new era of screen work, gives a finely drawn performance as Jeffrey Eleahor Boardman, as the wife, is ideally cast, and Alleen Pringle, as the "other woman," has all the charm and attraction which made her so popular in "Three Weeks" and "His Hour." The supporting cast includes William Halnes, Philo McCulough, Jacquelin Gladeson, Betty Francisco/Kate Price, Lincoln Stedman and others. The picture was adapted to the screen by Douglas Doty. Lige Conley in "Wedding Showers" and "The Mirror," an educational film showing happenings of 25 years ago, are also shown. George E. Turner is playing in a special number, "Mejody in P." Mr. and Mrs. R. A. Moore and Mr. and Mrs. Fertig were visiting the Mason and Smith families at Costa Grande over the week end. Mrs. Jack Rogers and Miss Bessie Luckenbach spent a very delightful day in Long Beach last Saturday. Mr. and Mr. F. W. Byers and children motored to Beaumont Sunday.

Corlett, Mrs. Clausson, Mrs. Holding, Mrs. Stenger and Mr. and Mrs. Perry Chancellor. New patients at the sanitarium: Fred D. Baker, Anahstim; Miss Eleanor Burdorf, Pullerton; and Mrs. W. P.
