LOS ANGELES, May 10. Thert are
three atrociously named Brown Der
by restaurants In Los Angeles. One
down town, one In Beverly and still
another in Holly
wood. The orig
inal Is stuccoed.
In the shape and
coloring from
whence It ac
quired Its absurd
name. Imagine

Yet much of
the celebrity life
of this extraord

conscious com
munity centers
around the brown
derbies. We dined at the one eater
cornered from our hotel Beverly
Wllshlre last evening. Frou-frou wait
resses, their russet dungaree skirts
stiffly starched and flaring, do the
serving.
They are au courant to all famous
In the brown-timbered room and
drop bits of gossip between courses.
Chaplin came In, sporting tweeds of
sunset gold, squiring Miss Goddard.
I might have known the fellow Stick
ing out derisive tongue at me
across the room was Mickey Nlelan.
One heard that our table, no less,
was where Rudy Vallee In his love
' lorn anguish crooned his miserere to
a aympathetlo waitress. She now has
become a celebrity. Our dinner was
pleasant because our party Included
Ed and Grace Nolan, the Harry Beau
monts, Harry and Sunny Brooks, be
loved friends of many years.
On a bench at the corner of a lead
ing boulevard, day after day, site one
of the richest American Indians.
Across the street is his magnificent
colonial home. He la very old and his
f mind clouded. Oil wells In his back
yard transplanted him from his tepee
to a grandeur he Is too Infirm to ap
preciate. Bo with thumb jerks he di

Los Angeles owes much, of its
mart look to Fate's witch bundle
the movie Industry. As much as New
York and more today than Paris It's
the style center. Studios have com
mandeered the best of designers. No
American city Is more clothes con
scious. The monocle la as at home
here as along London's Birdcage
Walk.
The University club gave a din
ner Wednesday night at the club
house In honor of Root. W. Ruhl,
editor of the Mall Tribune, which
was recently awarded the Pulltaer
prlae for 1983. President Earl Tumy
presided and Introduced the speak
ers, who were: B. A. Reames. John
D. Goss and E. G. Burgess. Mr. Reames
gave the principal address, which was
an expression of the great benefit
the winning of this award will be
to Medford and southern Oregon, to
which Mr. Ruhl briefly responded.
The following resolution was passed
by the club members, expressing
further apprecatton of the honor,
conferred upon southern Oregon:
"Resolved: That Rogue River Val
ley University club extends to the
people of Oregon, and more partic
ularly of the Rogue River valley,
congratulations upon the announce
ment by the Columbia university
trustees of the award to Medford
Mall Tribune, and to Robert W.
Ruhl, Its editor, of the Pulitzer price
for the most disinterested and meri
torious public service rendered by an
American newspaper during the year
less, and gratefully acknowledges
the honor thereby conferred upon
its most distinguished member.
"That this resolution be extended
in the minutes of the club, and
copy thereof given to the press."
Following the dinner an amusing
gridiron skit was put on by H. van
Hoevenberg and Martin Luther, while
Earl Tumy and William Vawter sang
typical song concerning the guest
of honor, to the tune of the "Flying
Trapeze
There were about 30 guests pres
ent. Including members of the club
and the following Invited meats:
Major Clare H. Armstrong, district
commander of the CCO: John D.
Goss, democratic candidate for con
gress from Marshfleld; J. A. Ormandy,
southern Pacific general passenger
agent of Portland: Arthur Perry,
Smudge Pot columnist; Charles Voor
htes, W. S. Bolger, W. M. McAllister,
David Rosenberg, E. G. Burgess, Gain
Robinson and Ralph Bardwell.
Our rooms are a radiant burst of
flowers. Blue and yellow iris from
Genevieve Tobln, white roses from
Ted Healy, yellow roses from Adolphe
Menjou, larkspur from Doris Kenyon,
aweet peas from TuHlo Carmanatl,
lilacs from Nate Mil nor, plants from
Winnie Sheehan'a garden, gladiolus
and double poppy from Joan Ben
nett, tulips from Florence Ryerson
and Colins Clement, pansles from
of all people Tom Mix. Carnations,
camellias, gardenias. They come on
every delivery. Such hospitality has
no significance. It Is as casual as the
sunshine, a symbol of California
cheerio.
In the 18 -karat residential areas
walking Is almost lost art. The
streets are filled with traffic, but
sidewalks bare of pedestrians. We
ticked off 41 blocks where not a soul
was seen on the pavements.
This Is one of those gray, lustre
less days of high fog. The sun can
not crack through. Los Angeles Is In
an attitude of abject apology, as
though sensing an affront to the
stranger. Death's head at the per
ennial feast. It will not be the same
until the thin mist sifts and Old Sol
Is on the Job again.

Gordon Green, Oregon manager for
the American Fruit Growers, Inc.,
left last week on an extensive trip,
covering all principal markets In the
United States and on the Canadian
border.
Mr. Green said his trip was not
only for the purpose of renewing
acquaintances among the company's
offices, scattered over the nation,
but also to follow up Important work
started by his Medford office dur
ing the past two years in getting
Medford's "grand old bosc pear"
started again in a great many of the
secondary markets, over the country.
The Bosc pear. In the opinion of
Mr. Green, is well on lte way to
ward staging a comeback to the once
high place this variety held In the
pear markets and as Medford, In
time, will have so many bosc pears.
Mr. Green states that he and his
organization Is determined to do all
they can toward hastening return of
the bosc to Its former popularity.
MILK LlISlE
CHECKED By
OF CONTOL AGENT
John S. Billings, field representa
tlve for the southern Oregon district
of the Oregon Milk control board, was
a visitor In Medford Saturday, check
ing the licenses of all persons and
firms handling milk. Persons wishing
to make applications were also get'
ting in touch with Mr. Billings.
At the meeting held here on Wed
nesday evening at the chamber of
commerce, the twenty milk dealers in
attendance voted that an advisor;
committee be set up In the district.
W. J, Warner was named to represent
the producer-distributors, Ted Ge-
Bauer, the distributors; and C. F.
Rhodes, the milk depots.
Those present conferred with Mr,
Billings on matters relating to the
milk control bill, which requires all
dealers to have a license.
He pointed out to the group that
monthly licenses must be paid by the
fifth, of each month, and also that
the bill makes It unlawful to violate
the fixed prices by discount, rebate,
free service, advertising allowance,
gift or otherwise.
Meetings of the group will be held
every two weeks to discuss the prob
lems of the milk dealers. The next
gathering la scheduled for May 29 at
the chamber of commerce here.
Similar meetings are being conduct
ed in Ashland by the milk dealers In
the southern part of the county, Mr.
Billings said.
MEMORIAL POPPY
HELPS DISABLED
Memorial popples which the
women, of the American Legion
auxiliary will distribute here on May
23 have been a means of providing
employment to hundreds of disabled
World War veterans through the win
ter and spring months, according to
Mrs. Belva Aiken, poppy choirman of
thel ocal auxiliary unit. The little
red flowers have made possible earn
ings of approximately 1)100.000 for
these disabled men, she stated.
"Making of the paper popples which
the American Legion auxiliary offers
on 'Poppy day' to be worn In honor
of the World War dead Is reserved
strictly for the war disabled," Mrs. I
Aiken explained. "It oilers a means
of employment to veterans unable to i
do other work and not only brings
them money for the support of
themselves and families, but aids In
their rehabilitation by giving them
beneficial, interesting work.
"The popples are made in govern
ment hospitals and In special poppy
work-rooms maintained by the auxil
iary. This year 58 different poppy
making centers have been In opera
tion in 40 states. Employment la re
stricted to men unable to do work
of other type, and preference Is
given those with families to support.
The paper poppy Is used exclusively
by the auxiliary because Its making
is a hand rather than maohine pro
cess.
"The money contributed for the
popples pays the wages of the poppy
makers and helps support the legion
and auxiliary's activities for the wel
fare of the disabled veterans and de
pendent families."
Leaves for Honolulu Robert Law
of the United States army, who has
been a guest of relatives here for tlio
past several days while on furlough,
left yesterday noon for San Francisco
to sail May 26 for Honolulu, where he
will be stationed. i '

THERE'S no guessing about the superiority of V-type engines. They hold
every major record on land, on water and in the air. For years they have
been used for the finest motor cars in this country.
We designed a V-type engine for the Ford because' it has certain basic,
fundamental advantages that cannot be duplicated in any other type. It costs
more to build a V-type engine a great deal more. But we absorb that cost
for the sake of getting better performance on the road. Here are just a few
of the advantages of Ford V-8 design t
MORE EFFICIENT DESIGN The Ford
V-8 engine is more efficient because the eight
cylinders are divided into two short banks of
four each and placed oppoiite each other In
a compact V-shapa design instead of being
strung out in a long straight tin.
ONE-PIECE CASTING of cylinder blocks,
crankcasa and exhaust passages. An exclusive,
Ford V-8 engine feature that means better
performance and economy. Keeps operating
parts in permanent alignment by providing
exceptional rigidity for entire engine. Also
increases smoothness, gives longer life to bear
ings and all moving part.
SHORTER CRANKSHAFT Compact V
type design of Ford angina permits use of
shorter, mora rigid crankshaft. This reduces
vibration.
BETTER FUEL DISTRIBUTION Shorter
and mora direct fuel passages to cylinders
Increase engine efficiency.
SIMPLER COOLING SYSTEM Ford V-8
design brings all cylinders close together and
results, in simpler cooling system within the
engine. The Ford V-8 has two water pumps.
MORB EFFICIENT LUBRICATION Oil
lines are shorter in the Ford because of V-8
design. Less diitance for sil to travel. Mora
efficient lubrication. '
GREATER SMOOTHNESS became of Inher
ently correct engine balance resulting from
90 V-8 design with 90 spacing of crank
throws on fully counterbalanced crankshaft.
Precision weighing of pistons and connecting
rods assures accurate running balance.
INCREASED BODY ROOM Ford V-8 en
gine takes up feat space in hood because of
shorter, more compact design. That permits
more of car's length to be used for the pas
sengers. It Is one reason why the Ford V-8
has more inferior room than any other low
frlct tar.
PROVED PERFORMANCE V-type enginee
hold every major record on land, on water and
in the air. (Seaplane.) In every teat, they show
their superior efficiency and performance.
Those are the advantages of the V-type
design. The foremost engineers in the country
acknowledge the superiority of this type ot
engine and use it in the finest automobiles,
speed boats and alrplaties. Only the Ford gtvee
you a V- 8 cylinder engine for less than S2J0O.
The Ford V-8 Is the most remarkable en
gine ever built because It combines V-8 per
formance with economy. It drfivm in ore)
horupower per gallon of fuel than any Ford
engine ever built. Dynamometer tests prove it
in the laboratory. Ford owners by the thou
sands have proved It on the road. They know,
as you will know, that no car costs less to own
and run than the New Ford V-8.
