Beach Between Venice and Playa del

Special to The Herald.

OCEAN PARK, June 14.-One of the
largest crowds of the season was here
today to see the beach combers, which
presented splendid spectacle and did
good deal Of mischief along shore,
In addition to taking out 100-foot
section of the long pier at Playa del
Rey. The heavy sea is due to great
atmospheric disturbance. which oc-
Cured several days ago out of sight of
land.
The breakers raked most heavily the
beach between Venice and a point
south of Playa del Rey. The break in
that pier occurred about 100 feet from
shore and leaves about 1400 feet more
of new structure standing intact but
inaccessible. The owner, the Beach
Terminal company, announced today
that 1t would rebuild the destroyed sec
ton Immediately. The pier was the
resort of many fishermen from Los
Angeles and elsewhere. and was much
enjoyed by Balloon route excursionists,
who stop at Playa del Rey daily for
dinner.
Inroads have been made upon the
beach by the force of the sea, so that
1t is now difficult walking from Venice
southwark to Playa del Rey.
The Ocean Park city government is
about to build bulkhead 2800 feet long
to protect portion of the ocean front,
and property owners want 1t so set out
upon the beach. If the United States
government will permit it, that a con-
crete walk twenty feet wide may be
had for an extension of the present
beach promenade.
Crowds of people are here tonight
watching the breakers, which, under
the electric light effects and the glare
OF full moon and with a. tide that
reaches six feet nine inches, make a
wonderful show.

ONE ALONE VIOLATES
SUNDAY CLOSING LAW
BOHEMIAN CAFE CONSPICUOUS
EXCEPTION TO RULE
Liquor Is Served Without Pretense Of
Even Sandwich Accompaniment
and ReveIry Holds Un-
molested Sway

with one exception every cafe in
Los Angeles appeared yesterday to OBJ
serve the Sunday closing law, which
makes it illegal to serve liquor with
anything but bona fide meals.
That exception was the Bohemian
cafe, 317 West Second street, and there
no effort appeared to be made to COM
ply with the law. Almost any person
who asked for drink was served, and
whisky, beer, wines and all forms OF
intoxicating liquors flowed freely.
From within the boxes the maudlin
laughter of men and women sounded
all evening and many couples who ap-
peared to be under the influence OF
| liquor left the place singing and other
! wise disturbing the peace at various
hours of the morning from midnight
| to 6 o'clock.
Since the place changed hands re-
Gently it has become an intolerable
nuisance, according. to those who are
familiar with the goings-on there.
Last night, although it was Sunday,
two representatives of The Herald had
no trouble in getting beer by the bot
tie without the pretense of a meal.
They observed 1t was sold to others,
also, without even sandwiches or
beans. and no effort was made to OBJ
serve the new police commission ruling.
1t is not believed the police commits
sion will allow the place to continue
it's present practice. Roomers in the
various lodging houses on each side of
and above the Bohemian grill complain
frequently that the noise prevents
them from sleeping.
The patrolman on the Bohemian grill
beat last night dropped in several times
and made a pretense of peering into
the various boxes, where women smok-
ing cigarettes, were sitting on mems
laps, drinking and singing; but, for
some reason, he did not observe drinks
were served without meals.
