500 YELLowTAIL ESCAPES

LONG BEACH, Aug. 19,-Two east
erners, reckless with their bankrolls,
made a wager of $40 a side on the
weight of yellowtail which was
hooked by a youth on the outer wharf
this afternoon. The bet was made
while the lad was fighting with the
fish. The creatures furious resistance
led one of the easterners to offer to bet
$40 the fish weighed more than fifteen
pounds.
In a moment both parties had their
money out. After some discussion a
stake holder was decided upon.
"If the fish weighs more than fifteen
pounds, Tom gets the money" said
Joe. "If it don't, 1 get it."
AS he finished his instructions the
yellowtail broke the line and escaped.
The stakeholder says he will keep the
500 until that particular fish is caught
and his weight determined. This was
the first yellowtail seen near the pier
in two months.

HIGH SCHOOL TRUSTEES
TO BE ELECTED AT LARGE
Hollywood Union Voters Worrying as
to Which of Seven lncumbents
May Be Dropped

HOLLYWOOD, Aug. ia matter
that is giving the residents of the
Union Hollywood high school district
a great deal of concern is the new law
passed by the last legislature making
the trustee boards of all union high
school districts to consist of five MEM
bers instead Of one representative from
each of the several districts that COM
pose the union district.
The Hollywood union high school
district consists of seven districts,
namely, Hollywood, Lankershim, Cole
grove, Coldwater Cahuenga, Los Fe-
liz and Laurel. The term of all of the
present members of the trustee board
will expire next April, when five trus-
tees at large will be elected.
The district has in times rast had a
strong representative from each dis
trict and to choose five from the seven
most worthy men will be a hard task.
It is feared that some i'll feeling may
be engendered. which would be most
unfortunate, as the greatest harmony
has prevailed so far.
Just what method will be used to
choose the five trustees is not known
and viii not be until short time De-
fore the holding of the election.
The members of the present board IS
as follows: Col. j. j. Steadman, Ho!-
