PASADENA SOCIETY LEADERS
CLOSE THE YEAR
Valley Hunt Club Puts Pleasure
Before Business and Elects
in the Wee, Sma'
Hours
Pasadena Agency.
IL North Raymond Avenue
Telephons Main 1147.

last night when the members
of the Valley Hunt club held their an
nual election of officers, but it is not
surprising that the women and men
who make up this most exclusive So
cial organization should place a full
evening of pleasure before the serious
task of business.
There were seventy members pres
ent and these enjoyed to the utmost
the annual dinner and the attractive
program which followed it, The
rooms of the club house were lavishly
decorated with red geraniums and
heads of preiXia. and the program
consisted of a number of very clever
charades by the actor members Of
the club. When the time for holding
the election arrived it was so late
that the matter was given short shrift.
Robert l. Rogers was elected presi-
dent for the ensuing year; A. Steven
Halstesd, vice president; Edward J.
Pyle treasurer: ]. S. Mcdonnell, sec
retary. and these gentlemen. together
with H. n. Sinclair, were named as
the clubs board of directors
No other matters of business were
attended to, being left to other even
ings when nothing else might inter-
fere.
Union Revival Meetings
Beginning tomorrow union revival
services will be held each day for a
week in five different churches in the
city, together with monday services
for men at the Y. M. c. A. and numer-
Gus afternoon services. Members of
the Pastors union express themselves
as much pleased at the interest shown
in the services of the first week in
spite of the inclement weather, and be-
lieve that the second and final week
starts out with signs of great prom
Use. Today's services in the different
churches partOok of an evangelistic
character and were largely attended.
The Y. M. C. A. service at p. M,
the union meeting for men in the First
Congregational church and the union
meeting for women in the First Bap-
tist church were remarkably well at
tended and marked by much religious
enthusiasm.
While it is expected that the evan
gelistic effort participated in by the
union of the citys Protestant denom-
nations will come to an end Friday
night of this week, a number of the
individual denominations intend to
continue special services in their own
churches. At the First Methodist
Episcopal church it has been ar
ranged for Dr. Edward F. Walker,
noted evangelist from Greencastle,
Ind, to preach in the church twice a
day for some time longer. Similar
services are expected in several other
churches.
South Pasadenans to Elect
Tomorrow occurs another election in
South Pasadena, interest in which is
scarcely less than it was in the recent
school election. 1t is the general mu-
ricipal election, with six offices to be
filled. Three city trustees are to be
chosen and there are four candidates
Leonard F. Hargrave, William F. Axt-
man, Henry Carpenter and r. w. Prid-
ham. Friends of AXtman, whom a GER
tain element hope to defeat with the
hope, it is said, of landing Carpenter
are rallying strongly because of his
familiarity with the needs of his sec
tiOn of South Pasadena. During the life
of the present board of trustees much
bitterness has been engendered by its
official action along disputed lines. The
ordinance requiring tree planting along
with considerable opposition, and is
being taken to the polls by those who
were in the minority in the board in
the hope that the project can be de-
feated For the office of city clerk
two candidates have been named
AltAlS IllllCkl-N, bIlt pIGStIll iIituIll-
bent, and O. w. Orcutt, and rather
close vote is said to be certain, for
both men have many friends who are
working hard for them. G.. w. Wilson
and NJ. B. Reid, candidates respectively
for city treasurer and city marshal,
have no opposition.

Myers Team Wins Game
Local baseball fans witnessed a game
today which was the real thing. In the
ninth inning the Myers Pasadena team
won the best game of the season from
the strong Boyle Heights Stars of Los
Angeles Neither side scored until the
ninth inning, when the local batsmen
began TO find the ball and with a rush
crossed the plate with four runs to the
good, winning the game Last wear
the Boyle Heights Stars won thirty-
eight games out of forty-one games
played and their record this years is
almost as good, so that the closeness
of today's score was not to be won
dered at. Shorty Robinson umnired
and the locals had their old reliable
battery of Grey and Rickard. I'm de-
cided contrast t. last Sundays game
when the Examiner team We're the Wit
