TERRIFIC LIGHTNING OVER CITY
Sharpest Display
 In Years At Early
 Hour This Morning
Electric and Telephone Lines Escape Damage in Storm - Streets Also Fortunate Although Rain Held Up Paving Activities Again To-day

Thousands of Waterburians were awakened during the early hours of the morning by the roaring thun- der and thereafter were witnesses to one of the most brilliant light ming displays the city has seen. That no place was struck was con- sidered fortunate. Possibly, though, trees on the outskirts of the city were hit but the lighting and tele- phone companies reported their lines and poles unaffected
 The rain fell steadily, but accord ing to Supt of Streets Thomas J.. Fleming it did no damage. It has resulted, though, in holding up fur ther the paving activities of the street department. For the past week and half the street depart ment has been hampered greatly in it's work and fair weather is hoped for so that the paving oper- ations may be pushed ahead
 The storm which broke over the city early this morning was herald ed by a brisk wind late last night. In retiring, though, Waterburians saw a cloudless sky. The sudden change in the weather came about 3:30 o'clock but the real storm did not set in until shortly before 6 o'clock, but fortunately the worst of ;t was over in time to give folks an opportunity to get to their places of employment without get ting soaked.

SANTA ANA, Calf, Feb. 10. (U.H
In what was believed to be the
only case of its kind in the history
of jurisprudence, Presiding Judge
Homer c. Ames, found Frank Won
Tesmer, secretary of the San Diego
grand jury, guilty of contempt of
court and then purged him with a
public reprimand.

employed as a special engineer on
an improvement project in San
Diego. AT the completion of his
work, ireland requested his fees,
but was denied.

collection of the fees was pending,
the county grand jury passed
resolution limiting the authority to
employ special engineers.

to be in contempt of court for issu-
ing the resolution at the time his
action was pending. He charged it
was untimely, and influenced wit
nesses against his cause.

because, in his capacity of secretary,
he wrote the resolution.

THEORY HELD
BY ElNSTEIN
GETS SUPPORT

PASADENA, Cal, Feb 10 U.P)-
Support of DR.. Albert Einstein's
theory of relativity. particularly
where it affects the bending of
light rays was given the scientist
by DR.. John A. Miller, director of
the Sproul observatory, of SWarth-
more, during a lecture here.
1t was DR.. Miller who first pre-
dicted that tests of EinStein's state
ment that light does not travel in
straight line would be found dur
ing total eclipses of the sur, and
this was borne out by expeditions
in 1919 and 1922, it was explained
Those who felt that Einstein was
on the wrong track, held that light
rays were bent when they passed
the moon because of the tenpera-
ture of that body, rather than from
gravitation pull while passing the
sun. DR.. Miller, however, told
Einstein that his observations did
rot bear out these contentious.
DR.. Miller has been making an
exhaustive study of the radiations
of the sun in relation to the bend
ing of light which SO far have d.
fled detection in photographs, he
added.

petition for appointment of re-
ceiver in equity for the Bay Cities
Guaranty Building and Loan As
sociation of Santa Monica today
was denied by Federal Judge Will
liam p. James.
The petition was denied without
prejudice upon the plea of State
Building and Loan Commissioner
H. l.. Carnahan, who contended in
opposing the federal receivership
that it was his duty to take charge
of any association when such ac-
ton became necessary.
The receivership had been asked
yesterday by Harry S. Ayers, res
ident of Michigan and sharehold
er in the association.
Carnahan declared that if assets
of any association should be liqui-
dated. the action should be under
his direction and not through fed
eral receivership.
The judge acceded to the request
declaring he was opposed to inter-
ference with the regular course of
action prescribed by state law for
building and loan associations.
The commissioner said a thorough
examination of the associations
books had convinced him that it
could not legally continue to do
business, and that it was his duty
to take charge.

ney General Sargent had ruled
against the practice.
