Riverview is a nice clean little
town, situated on the Kentucky side
OF the Ohio river half way between
Fullerton and South Portsmouth
just opposite Portsmouth, Ohio, and
was so called because of the fine
view we have here of the river, the
town opposite, the surrounding
country and far up the Scioto val

1b0 union men in this city, representing

SAN PEDRO, TO CROW,
BATTLES WITH HILLS
Natural Conditions Being Con-
quered to Allow Room
for Expansion

SAN PEDRO, June 27.-The failure
of the city dads of San Pedro twenty
years ago to take into consideration
the needs of a larger business district
than the little, narrow gulch where
the town began has resulted in some
obstacles in street work that have not
yet been overcome.
What should have been done was to
fill the gulch so that streets on a rea-
sonable grade might be established up
the hills all around. In those days,
however, the inhabitants of the gulch
thought little of streets. The principal
business of the town, which had but
200 voters, was that of the forty-eight
saloons and dance halls in the gulch.
In later years. as the town grew and
the business district expanded. 1t be-
came necessary to dig back into the
hills on each side of the gulch. And
the property owners are still digging.
Streets were cut through the hills on
the best possible grade, leaving great
bluffs on either side, and the hills are
being razed for business blocks.
AT the corner of Seventh and Palos
Verdes streets the Elks have just COM
pleted a new home that cost $4,000.
1t is a three-Story structure of mission
architecture, built of brick and plas-
tered on the outside, with a red tile
IL.
built was gouged out of the hill, and
on all three other corners of the inter-
secting streets the bluffs still stand
rising to the height of the magnificent
new building.
CUTTING DOWN HILLS
One block east on Seventh street an
other corner of the hill was hauled
away and a new block was built a
few months ago. costing 1000. The
| postoffice is located In the building. A
ladder used to run up the side of the
| bluff at this point, and in the early
days the few families who lived on
Vinegar HILL" now the best residence
section of San Pedro. used it to get up
| from the gulch.
| When this building was built the
| owner got the city trustees to lower
the grade of Beacon street about eight
feet before he would put 1t up. Then
the owner of the property on the OPP
posite corner objected to having Sew
! enth street cut to conform with the
new grade on Beacon.
The result is that Seventh street is
impossible between Palos Verdes and
Beacon, and both the postoff1ce BLOCK
and the new Elks' home are nestled
in among the bluffs that surround
them, making as curious a picture OF
the problems that confront property
ownens and engineers who are trying
to make modern streets across the ole
gulch where San Pedro was first
founded.
It is expected that the Seventh
street obstruction will soon be removed
by the Los Angeles city council, law
having been passed by the last legis
lature permitting grades to be estab'
! ushed for one block to conform with
| thosa of intersecting streets, no mat
ter If property owners do protest.
On the other side of town there Il
a. project on foot to raze Mob Hill tC
the level of the water front, and an
other to fill Happy Valley. Altogether
there is much work ahead before the
lines of the old gulch where San Pedro
was born are obliterated.

DEMONSTRATES CURE OF
BROKEN BACK BY WALKING

SAN BERNARDINO, June 27.-By
the aid of crutches Carl Metzler, VINO
sustained broken back in runaway
over a year ago, is able to walk. The
recovery of the injured man is one OF
the most remarkable cases in the ms ms
torv of the local county hospital,
where he was taken as a mere for
maiity after being picked up, sup
posedly dying.
1t was not thought when he was
taken to the hospital that he could
live more than a few hours. Several
months ago when his recovery was as
sured, Metzter was examined by sur
geons in the state convention. HIS
case was pronounced one of the most
remarkable in the feats of surgery of
California.
Metzler made his first long walk
today, ambling for quite distance
about the hospital grounds.
