CRIME SPREADING FAST IN SIGILY
ROME, Jan. 21. — Crime in Sicily has of late assumed alarming proportions.
Murders of individuals have been most frequent, but even these have been put in the shade by the number of crimes against whole families.
One of the most startling of these latter was recently enacted at Santa Maria, a small market town near Palermo, which resulted in eight members of three families being killed and injured.
The members of three families, 19 in all, were assembled in a garden in the town when rifle fire was opened upon them by several men concealed outside. Fortunately the trees and shrubs afforded the intended victims some protection, but several fell and the remainder escaped to the adjoin-
ANDY'S COUNTRY STORE AT UNITED
Yes, Thursday night's the night that everyone is waiting for, when Andy's country store will again make its appearance in Anaheim at the United theatre. Those who attended last Thursday night need no word of explanation of this exceptional entertainment, but for the benefit of those who missed out on this treat, and so that they'll take advantage this Thursday night, we want to say right here and now that Andy's country store, the "constable" and the rube band give an entertainment that is hard to beat—laughs one right after another and real good wholesome fun prevails. And we want to tell you all that Andy has some surprises up his sleeve for Thursday night. Of course, L. F. Kline, the "constable" will give you all a real treat with his selections on the harmonica and harp, and from what we hear of the band practice, say they are "hum-dingers." Groceries, Andy

One of the most startling of these latter was recently enacted at Santa Maria, a small market town near Palermo, which resulted in eight members of three families being killed and injured.
The members of three families, 19 in all, were assembled in a garden in the town when rifle fire was opened upon them by several men concealed outside. Fortunately the trees and shrubs afforded the intended victims some protection, but several fell and the remainder escaped to the adjoining house, where, arming themselves, they opened fire on the attackers who decamped, leaving behind a note declaring that a massacre of the three families would undoubtedly be carried out in the near future.

PEKING FINALLY ISSUES STATEMENT
PEKING, Jan. 21.—Under pressure from Chang, Tso Lin, warlord of Manchuria, the Peking provincial government today finally issued a mandate calling for the arrest of Chi Hsieh Yuan, former military chieftain of the ousted Chihil party and now a rebel fighting against the Anju central government. Chi's battle line in the Shanghai area is now formed at Soo Chow and Kiang day night, we want to say right here and now that Andy's country store, the "constable" and the rubber band give an entertainment that is hard to beat—laughs one right after another and real good wholesome fun prevails.

Groceries, Andy was telling us he almost had to get a truck to haul them to the theatre for him, so the lucky ones will go home well supplied. So folks, you want to be on hand early Thursday evening, to get a good seat. This is given in conjunction with a specially selected picture program.
Powerful Domestic Drama at the United
"The Empty Cradle," a powerful story of domestic life, the story of a rich family and a poor family, will be the offering at the United theatre on Thursday evening.
The leading role is in the hands of Mary Alden, who is considered to be the foremost emotional actress on the American screen, while Harry T. Morey, who will be remembered for his many successes plays opposite her.
In this production Mary Alden is given a wider scope for the exercising of her histrionic ability; for the entire picture is practically dominated by her skillful and decidedly human interpretation of a simple and everyday wife.
"The Empty Cradle" is one of the foremost pictures of the year. It has been shown to enthusiastic audiences throughout the United States, and the management of the United theatre takes great pleasure in presenting this picture to the people of Anaheim.
FIND MAN'S BODY
SAN JOSE, Jan. 21.—The body of a well dressed man, found in a clump of brush in an isolated spot in the hills near the San Jose Country club, was partially identified today as that of George W. Brown of San Diego.
An autopsy was ordered to determine the cause of death. There was no evidence of violence, authorities said.
A bank book showing $500 on deposit in a San Diego bank and $118 was found in the pockets. Cards and letters found with the bank book bore the name of Geo. W. Brown.

PEKING FINALLY ISSUES STATEMENT
PBKING, Jan. 21.—Under pressure from Chang, Tso Lin, war lord of Manchuria, the Peking provisional government today finally issued a mandate calling for the arrest of Chi Hsieh Yuan, former military chief of the ousted Chihli party and now a rebel fighting against the Anju central government. Chi's battle line in the Shanghai area is now formed at Soo Chow and Kiang Su.
In spite of the crushing defeat sustained by Chi's army last week at the hands of Chang Tao Lin's Russian legion at Chinkiang, a port on the Yangtse Klang river, about 100 miles northwest of Shanghai, Chi is still able to put up considerable resistance, according to reports here from the fighting area.
Sixty thousand Fuken troops commanded by Chi's ally, Sun Chuan-Fang, former Chihli military governor of Fukien province, west of Shanghai, are reported to be coming to Chi's assistance.
Telegraphic communication between Peking and Shanghai continues interrupted, owing to the telegraphers strike in Shanghai.
HOT WATER GUSHER IN THAMES VALLEY
LONDON, Jan. 21.—After boring for water for 19 months in the ground of Holloway sanatorium, Virginia Water, near Great Windsor Park, the boring party have struck a spring—of hot water—which at one time appeared as though it would flood the village of Strood.
Huge quantities of water rushed from the sanatorium grounds to the main road between Virginia Water and Staines, and clouds of vapor from the flooded roadway gave the appearance of fog.
When tested the heat of the spring proved to be 97 degrees Fahrenheit.
Mr. and Mrs. R. R. Robinson of Pullerton are the parents of a daughter born last night at the local sanitarium.
Melvin Schneider of Anaheim is a patient at the local sanitarium.
SEEK FAVOR FOR LEGION CONTESTS
SACRAMENTO, Jan. 21.—Alleging that "certain posts of the American Legion have applied for permits, and it appears that said requests for boxing permits have been denied," Assemblyman Geo. C. Cleveland of Watsonville introduced an assembly resolution signed by more than a score of solon veterans requesting the state athletic commission to show preference to American Legion posts and other veteran organizations instead of individuals.
SEAPLANE RACES
MAY COME HERE
SAN DIEGO, Jan. 21.—The international Schnelder cup seaplanes races for 1925, the world's premiere over water flying event, will be held in San Diego if a campaign launched here today to secure the big meet proves successful.
Though America holds more seaplanes records than any other nation, nine world marks are held by France, Italy, Denmark and Czecho-Slovakia.
Highway Bond Issue
SACRAMENTO, Jan. 21.—Sen. Roy Fellom today introduced a bill for another state highway bond issue. The measure carries no specific amount, but lays the groundwork should the legislature decide to raise store money for highways.

STRANGE WAYS OF A.A.U. DISCLOSED
NEW YORK, Jan. 21.—There will be weeping and wailing and grinding of the incisors by certain young men of the spiked shoe profession when they give Frederick W. Rubiens, the all-American track and field team announced today, the optical left to right.
Mr. Rubiens, as secretary-treasurer of the A. A. U., can be said to have his index finger on the pulse of the situation at all times, yet some of his selections are not quite open to comprehension.
By nightfall, for example, it is possible that De Hart Hubbard, Univ. of Mich., negro and justifiably proud of his broad jumping ability, may be one of the four out of five who masticate with bare gums. Hubbard beat 24 feet more times than any jumper in the world last year and as far as my knowledge goes, finished the season undefeated. He won the Western Conference title, the Olympic tryouts at Boston, the Olympic title itself at Paris and finally the national championship.
Was he named as the best broad-jumper in this country? He was not.
The place went to Bob Legendre. Newark A. C. who broke the world's record by clearing a fraction more than 25 feet six inches and then called it a campaign. Legendre was beaten by Hubbard, Ned Gourdin, W. Dowding and Al Rose at the National meet; in fact failed to place at all. Hubbard may be placated by the fact he was named as the best in the hop, step and jump but I doubt it. The event lacks consequence.
Another selection that may bruise the finer sensibilities of our hardy athletes is that of Horatio Fitch Chicago A. A., in the quarter mile Horatio came along like the wind at the Olympic games in addition to
SARGUM PROUTINGS
Benny Leonard, lightweight king of pugilists for these many years, has given up his kingdom. A new king will be crowned when Sammy Mandell and Sid Terris stop slinging fists at one another Feb. 6. Tex Rickard is going to hang a diamond-crusted belt on the winner and that will proclaim him king.
Now Mandell fought Johnny Adams out here and did not show much above the San Bernardino lad; Tommy Carter knocked Johnny for a row of tomato cans and Ace Hudkins slapped Tommy from every angle. Isn't it not only possible but very probable that the real lightweight champion of the world is now in our midst?
Benny Leonard, the retiring champ, has been having a lot of trouble with his hands. Every time he gets down to real boxing he has injured them. Benny has stage contracts that would keep the wolf from the door for a considerable time even if the Leonard bank account was not already a thing of considerable proportions. Benny, so they say, has been a thrifty boxer and has put away much of his earnings for a rainy day. So he can well afford to retire.
Now comes the story of Jack Dempsey's retirement. Jack will probably follow in the steps of Jim Jeffries; retire until some good man gets well established and then try a comeback and get the budding slapped out of him. Dempsey may get married and retire but the papers have had him doing that very thing so long that the public will have to be shown this time. Jack would do the sport short term.
BEARS' ATTACKS RENEWED TODAY
NEW YORK, Jan. 21.—The bears renewed their attacks on the stock market today as soon as the early short coverings had been concluded and met with considerable success in some sections of the speculative list. Prices were strong in the first period, due in large measure to the buoyancy of the industrial leaders, which pushed upward from one to eight points. Practically all of the important industrial stocks were represented in this rally, the list including U. S. Steel, Baldwin, Du Pont, Radio Corp., American Sugar, American Can, Dullness and reactionary price movements followed as soon as the covering movements were out of the way and for the remainder of the session stocks were churned about with no apparent destination.
The financial district again presented the sharp contrast in industrial and financial developments on the one hand and speculative sentiment on the other. Traders were extremely conservative about new commitments on the long side of the market and this gave the bears their opportunity to test out the weak spots in the speculative lists. Attacks were concentrated on the motor textiles and specialty stocks. Chandler dropped three points American Woolen 2½%, American Can 3½%; Mack Trucks 1½%; Universal Pipe 2, and a score of the representative industrial shares from a fraction to a full point.
Dullness comparable with that prevailing in yesterday's session indicated to the bulls that there was not much stock for sale at current price levels. Total sales in the first three hours amounted to only $80,000 shares.
Reactionary tendencies also prevailed in the principal outside markets with the exception of for-
DICK SMITH WILL BE OREGON COACH
PORTLAND, Jan. 21—Richard S. "Dick" Smith, ex-Oregon football player and coach and all-American fullback at Columbia university in 1900, will be Oregon's football coach this year. Smith is an attorney at Eugene.
Portland alumni of the U. of Oregon, after hot debate, endorsed Smith last night when Virgil Earl, director of athletics, explained that Smith would be willing to take complete charge of football at Oregon until such time as the university can secure the right man to serve on a long-term contract of seven or ten years as head coach. Smith succeeds Joe Mauldock.
Earl will recommend Smith's selection today at a meeting of the athletic council of Oregon at Eugene.
LANE WILL BOSS SALT LAKE CLUB
SALT LAKE, Utah, Jan. 21—Mr. H. William Lane will be the guiding genius of the much-traded Salt Lake baseball club.
Now comes the story of Jack Dempsey's retirement. Jack will probably follow in the steps of Jim Jeffries; retire until some good man gets well established and then try a comeback and get the budding slapped out of him. Dempsey may get married and retire but the papers have had him doing that very thing so long that the public will have to be shown this time. Jack would do the sport world a good turn if he would retire. There would be a lot of interest stirred up in the heavyweight class. Jack will not fight for anything in reason and he being considered the main drawing card hurts the lesser lights.

The "Tiger," like Paul Berlinback, had been knocking all opponents into dreamland, but the mighty Jack brushed aside the "Tiger's" most furious rushes until the opening came and the fight was over.
A great many of New York's gambling elite will have to drift south to keep warm the rest of the winter, as Flowers was a 3 to 1 favorite and the betting was strong. The way of the gambler is rose-strewn sometimes, again it is lined with sand burs.
Paavo Nurmi, the Finnish running marvel who resembles an undernourished factory hand, has been playing hide and seek with our American runners. Nurmi lowered his own world's record to beat Jole Ray.
The Finn is a draftsman by trade and running is just a side line. He must be a whale in his real profession. His arms are very small and his trunk is not developed as might be expected. His great legs have not much of a load to carry and while well proportioned they do not appear capable of such speed and endurance.
Tom McCarey, for years the Tex Rickard of the Pacific coast, is having a hard time in getting the new fight commission to grant him the privilege of promoting fights. Uncle Tom proposes building an arena that will seat 40,000, the site being near Florence. The residents of that section have sent in a protest which is holding up Uncle Tom's venture.
McCarey staged some of the greatest fights ever seen in the west in the old days. He had much to do with the development of Jim Jeffries, one of the great champions of all time. Many others that made a mark in the pugilistic world owe much of their instruction to Uncle Tom. He was always considered on the square away much of his earnings for a rainy day. So he can well afford to retire.

TRICK PONDER
LANE WILL BOSS
SALT LAKE CLUB
SALT LAKE, Utah, Jan. 21—Mr. H. William Lane will be the guiding genius of the much-traded Salt Lake baseball club, at least for the season of 1925. This was the word given out today by the Salt Lake mining man, following a conference here with the "mysterious syndicate" that has been dicker for the purchase of the Bees for some time.
After due consideration of the project, the "M. S." has come to the conclusion that owing to the nearness of the opening of the 1925 season, the further fact that player contracts had already been sent out and that various other matters pertaining to the preparation of a club for a championship race were well under way, it would be best if the Bees went thru the present season under the present management.
SCHLECKER WINS
LOS ANGELES, Jan. 21.—Taking all but three rounds and one of them being even of his 10-round fight, Joo Schlecker won a decision over Pat Mills at Veron last night, after which Mills took exception to the ruling and almost incensed the patrons to a semi-riot when he held up his arms to them in appealing gestures. Cushions rained into the ring from the gallery, but the appearance of Promoter Doyle and several officers brought a hall to matters. While Mills stopped everything Schlecker had, it was impossible for him to get to his opponent.

CASH ENOUGH FOR RETIRED TEACHERS
'SACRAMENTO, Jan. 21'—Declaring that "there is no occasion for alarm concerning the teachers' retirement salary fund," the legislative committee of the California teachers' ass'n and the state ass'n of county and city school superintendents, today branded as false a report recently made public by the state board of education, stating that the fund was rapidly approaching insolvency.
"The fund shows a surplus of over $2,000,000 as compared with $271,000 in 1916," the committee reports, "and has increased during the last eight years at an average of about $200,000 annually."
The report issued by the state board of education which is controlled by appointees of Gov. Richardson is viewed by the educators as an attempt on the part of the Richardson administration to discredit the fund with a view to its ultimate abolition. Provision is made under the fund for the payment of retirement salaries to all teachers participating.
The school committee asserts in its statement that the report is based "on assumptions rather than facts" and sets forth that the accountant preparing it admits having secured only "superficial data."
