ELABORATE PLANS MADE
FOR ANNUAL CHARITY BALL
Pasadena Society Women Working for
Function, Which AViators Are
Invited to Attend

PASADENA, Jan. 16.-By far the
most elaborate plans ever made for
an annual charity ball are being made
for the affair of next Tuesday evening,
which this year is to be held at the
Hotel Maryland. Manager D. NJ. Lin
nard plans to have the canvas arch
way approach to the hotel, which is
nearly 100 feet long, removed and in
its place will have canopy of electric
lights under which the society people
of Pasadena will walk to the entrance.
The interior is to be literally buried
in flowers, ferns and palms, the dane
ing taking place in the main dining
room and the western dining room
annex.
Led by Mrs. GroeneRdyke of South
Orange Grove avenue, a committee of
prominent society women is working
hard to make the affair success. One
of the features will, of course, be the
presence of the aviators from Domin-
guez aviation field. Paulhan, Curtiss
and the others are to be the guests of
honor and will take part in the grand
march.
1t is planned to run special electric
trains from Los Angeles direct to the
hotel, as many Los Angeles society
people have planned to attend the
function, the proceeds of which goto
the Children's Training school, the
Pasadena home for orphans.

INTERESTS OF TWO CITIES
TO FORM BUSINESS PACT
Ocean Park and Santa Monica Mer-
chants will Try to Solve
the Liquor Problem

OCEAN PARK, Jan. 16-The recent
arrest of several merchants, especially
liquor dealers, for disposing of their
goods in this city without a license,
has resulted in the Inauguration of a
movement to consolidate the business
interests of this city and Santa Monica.
Many merchants have come to realize
that something must be done for their
protection or some of them will have
to quit business, as the ordinance re-
curing licenses to be obtained by all
who sell liquor is being rigidly en-
forced.
The consolidation election several
months ago is thought to have decided
conclusively the question of the two
cities joining together under one mu-
nicipal government. The present move
ment is a matter affecting only the
merchants The latter feel that they
are at a disadvantage if their rivals.
whose places of business are just across
the street, but in an entirely different
CITY. as the condition is here, are al

pay for the privilege.
The matter will be brought up pub
licly for the first time at the meeting
of the Merchants of Venice next
Wednesday night, City Attorney By
ron c. Hanna will discuss the various
phases of the subject and business men
will be called upon for opinions con-
cerning a proper course of action. IT
is expected later to bring the matter
to the attention of the city councils OF
Ocean Park and Santa Monica. In
this way it is hoped to make some
suitable arrangement whereby business
may be conducted without further fric-
tion and without danger of arrest for
violation of a city ordnano"

FARE INCREASED BY
NEW TRANSFER SYSTEM
San Bernardino Valley Traction Pa
irons Are Protesting Over
Arrangement

SAN BERNARDINO, Jan. ia
new rule placed in effect ON the lines
of the san Bernardino Valley Trac-
tion company when its service was re-
arranged recently has caused a pro
test from residents of this city. II
was formerly possible to ride from the
city limits on the north to Cotton for
10 cents. The return trip was the
same.
BY the system of transfers lately
inaugurated, however, it is necessary
to pay Is cents from Cotton to the
northern limits of the city. This is the
result of the refusal of the company
to give transfers from its interurban
lines to points in the city.
Formerly the Cotton cars ran from
the northern limits of the city to Col
ton, hut this was changed the first of
the month, and the Cotton cars operate
only from the downtown section,
necessitating transferring. The mat
ter may be taken up with the city
council.

SAN BERNARDIN0 CHARTER
REVISION WORK TO START
Principal Change Desired Is to ln=
crease Amount for Which City
Can Be Bonded

SAN BERNARDINO, Jan. 16.-The
first step toward the actual revision OF
the city charter will be taken Tuesday
when the general committee, appointed
by Mayor S. w. McNab will meet foi
organization.
Various changes are desired in the
charter granted several years ago, and
it is the plan to have the committee,
consisting of sixty citizens, selected
without regard for politics, draft the
revised charter which is to be placed
before the Legislature at its next seA
sion. The general committee, headed
by Judge f. F. Oster as chairman, will
appoint a subcommittee to have
charge of the work of revision.
One of the principal changes desired
is the increasing of the amount that
the city can be bonded. Necessary pub
lie improvements are now held back
because the limit of bonded indebted
ness has already been practically
reached. Various other changes are
also desired.

LIPPINC0TT'S ADDRESS
SUITS WATER FACTIONS
Both Sides in Pasadena Find Grains
of Thought to Make
Capital Of

PASADENA, Jan. 15.-Capital is be-
ing made by both sides in the water
controversy over the address delivered
Saturday evening by Engineer J. b.
Lippincott of the Owens river auue-
duct. The address was under auspices
of the Shakespeare club and the fea-
ture of the talk was the remarks of
the engineer anant the Pasadena water
system. He advised the city not to
be content with securing merely a
temporary water supply, but to build
for the future by getting a share Of
the Owens river water. He called at
tention to the fact that Los Angeles
could not sell water to anything but a
municipality and that a municipality
must have distributing system before
it could be supplied.
The proponents of the purchase by
the city of the local water companies
now claim that it is necessary to buy
out the distributing systems already
in use before it will be possible to get
a share of the owens river water,
while those opposing the bonds claim
that their contention that Owens river
is the thing is amply sustained by the
advice of Engineer Lippincott.

is Foolish

CHICAGO, Jan. 16.-"There will be
no fight in Salt Lake City or any other
place in Utah. The authorities will
take whatever drastic steps necessary
to prevent it."
Governor Spry of Utah, who arrived
in Chicago late tonight, made this
statement
Il have made this assertion before"
continued Governor Spry, but l re-
peat it now with renewed emphasis
There is no use of these sporting men
keeping UP the talk of overthroWing
the law In Utah. 1t would be absurd
if a couple of fight promoters could
nullify the law at their convenience
The law is against the fight and we
simply will not permit it.
Il don't think it would be necessary
to call out the militia to prevent a
fight, but we would take whatever
drastic action that would be neces-
sary 1t is generally understood that
the fight is to take place in Califor-
mia, and we do not think there is any
danger of our state being invaded.
