The bride is the daughter of Mrs.

Pennsylvania oldest and most dis
tinguished families, and in California is
considered one of the most beautiful of
the younger social leaders, being a per-

SAN BERNARDINO, Oct. 29.-How-
ard Baker knocked out Charlie An
singer in the sixth round of their
scheduled twenty-round fight here to-
night with short right hook to the
jaw. Baker won all the way and
never was in serious danger at any
time, showing all the cleverness and
the best wallop. Baker fought easily
in the first round and allowed An
Singer to go on the aggressive, but
Baker outboxed him in this round and
had a good lead at the gong.
In the second round Baker loosened
up and went after Anslinger deter
minedly. Near the end of the round
he caught Anslinger with a right cross
that sent him to the mat for the count
of eight, but the round was so near
the end that Baker could not finish
him. Anslinger showed some speed in
the third and put up his best battle
in this round.
In the fourth Baker crossed with his
right and put Anslinger to the mat in
a dazed condition. After he arose,
Baker again sent him down with a
hard right to the head and an over
hand right swing to the back of the
neck. The gong probably saved An
singer.
The fifth was featureless, save that
Anslinger came back surprisingly
strong, but was unable to cut down
Bakers lead any.
In the sixth both boys fought fur
iously, but Baker was so clever and
fast and put such great steam in his
wallops that he had Anslinger weak
before he slipped over a right hook to
the jaw that sent Anslinger down for
the final count. The knockout was
clean cut and Anslinger had to be
assisted to his corner after being
counted out.
Both preliminaries ended in knock
outs. Kid Cope of San Bernardino
stopped Cherokee Kid of Los Angeles
in the first round and Kid Pratt of
San Bernardino knocked out Charlie
Mitchell of Bakersfield in the second.
Despite political rally tonight a
large crowd attended the fight and the
knockouts put all in good humor.
There were large number of Los
Angeles sportsmen at the ringside.
Freddie Welsh was introduced and was
given a great ovation.

OF BELMONT HElGHST
Especial to The Herald

LONG BEACH, Oct. 29.-Surprise
was felt today when the news leaked
out that at q meeting held last night
the trustees of the new city of Bel
mont Heights adopted a resolution
looking to the annexation OF enough
territory to bottle Long Beach COM
pletely.
The resolution was published in a
San Pedro newspaper today. The linz
it's include a wide strip of land north
of the present city limits and extend
ing from the Orange county line on the
east to Wilmington on the west. The
strip includes a part of Signal Hill.
Naturally, all the influence possible
will be brought by Long Beach to de-
feat the issue. With the aid of those
who are opposed to the Incorporation
of the new city it is believed here that
the annexation will be defeated.
If the election is carried Long Beach
will be shut in all along its northern
boundaries.

MISREPRESENTATION AS
TO HARBOR CONTRADIcTED
Port Pilots Send to London State
ments and Official Map Showing
Depth of Water and other
Particulars

SAN PEDRO, Oct 29.-That the
facts concerning the harbor at San
Pedro as a harbor of refuge and easy
discharge for vessels from foreign
ports have been greatly distorted
abroad was evidenced today by the
receipt at San Pedro of clippings from
a marine newspaper published in Lon
don. The London journal had some
very uncomplimentary things to say
about this port. the depth of water
over the bar, the anchorage grounds
and the inability to make dispatch of
a cargo.
Port Pilots Hamilton and Johnson
have prepared statements correcting
these figures and are sending to Lon
don a full and complete description of
all the matters concerning shipping at
this port, together with an official map
of the harbor, showing depths of water
and other data, as made by Capt.
Fries.

WANT CITY OFFICIALS TO
TAKE CHARGE OF PARKING
Members of Charter Revision Commit
tee Believe Beauty of Streets Will
Be Enhanced by Uniform
Treatment

PASADENA, Oct. 29.-Members of
the city charter revision committee are
strongly In favor of an amendment
which will give the city officials au-
thority to take charge of the parking
along streets, where the residents re-
quest such action. They discussed it
this morning to the exclusion of al
most everything else.
1t is felt that the practice, which is
common in other cities, would result
in much more uniform treatment of
the parkings and tend materially to
improve the beauty of the streets. No
definite action was taken on the ques-
ton.
City Commissioner Rudolph Schiff-
man is responsible for the considera-
ton of the question here.
Whether the time limit of franchises
shall be raised-one of the most i'm
portant questions confronting the COM
mittee-was given little consideration
this morning.

the business district, to j. ]. Fouch and

valuable because of its close proximity

is admirably suited for the purpose.
The city is one of the best theater

DANE TO REST
UNTIL JANUARY
Rumor That Nelson Would Cross the
Atlantic to Give Sparring Exhl-
billions Unfounded, Says
WilIus Britt

CHICAGO, Oct. 29.-Willus Britt Of
San Francisco, manager of lightweight
champion Battling Nelson, stopped off
in Chicago for a few hours yesterday
en- route from New York to the Pacific
coast, and set at rest all doubt as to
the pugilistic plans of the Dane.
"The rumors of Nelson fighting Nc
Farland six rounds in the east, or Of
meeting Johnny Thompson at this
place or that, are all wrong" said
Britt. Nelson has only two fights In
view, and neither of these is likely to
come off soon. One of these battles
is to be with Packey Mcfarland, for
Nelson will give the Chicago boy a
crack at the title.
Negotiations for a fight between the
Dane and Mcfarland have not been
started, but can say the battle will
come off about New Years, for Nell
son is not going to enter the ring for
a battle before the first OF the new
year. AS for the other fight, If it is
arranged, it will come at some later
date"
Britt. who has been in the east with
Nelson, incidentally said there was no
chance of Nelson crossing the water
to England to engage in sparring exhi-.
billions with Jimmy Britt, who is now
on British soil.

Talley, who has been carrying on min
Ing operations in the upper Yucaipe
country for the past two years. has
been overtaken with financial troubles
in the shape of a lien for $500 being
placed against his mining claims by
C. T. Meyers and William Reinhold,
who have been employed on the claims
in development work, the lien being
for wages due. 1t is also directed
against one Tully, formerly a clergy
man, who was formerly interested with
Talley in the mine.
Troubles arose between them and
Tully retired. Talley has been doing
great amount of boasting about the
richness of the mine and frequently
came to town with remarkably rich
rock which he claimed to have taken
out of the property. He also claimed
the Guggenheims and Trenton, N j.,
capitalists were interested in the prop
erty, and were furnishing the financial
backing.

APPEALS SUIT IN WHICH
$4,000 JUDGMENT GIVEN

SAN BERNARDINO, Oct. 29.-The
damage suit of Mrs. Daisy Hale
against the San Bernardino Traction
company, in which she was returned
a verdict for $4,000 as damages for

company practically made no defense
to the case, it being said 1t was willing
to settle on basis of $4,000, but the
plaintiff was unwilling. When the
heavy verdict was returned the Traction
company asked for a new trial, which
was denied by the court. This Is made
the basis of the appeal, also the ex-
cessive character of the judgment.
