Smudging Reported From Rialto, Wind Keeps Temperature in Colton Groves Above 35 While torn district In the valley reported below freezing temperature yesterday morning, and mudglng wu reported from the Rialto citrus belt, Cotton's low mark for the night was 35 degrees, the me figure recorded Saturday morning.

A stiff wind blew throughout the night, preventing the mercury from dropping lower, although frost was Observed In some portions. Cold snaps are unwelcome at this time of year as the bloom is being established both on citrus and deciduous fruit trees. A summary of December and January frost conditions has been completed for the Orange Belt by Henry N. Welrauch, copies of which have been received by Colton growers. It states: Weather Conditions Generally Unfavorable "Weather conditions during the 1930-31 season were generally unfav orable to the citrus Industry.

A severe windstorm on Nov. 21 and 22 hook approximately 5 per cent of the fruit from the trees, although a considerable portion of this was defective fruit. There was a moderate amount of rain In November, but December was characterized by an entire lack of precipitation. The dry period was ended by Intermittent rains from Jan. 2 to Jan.

which no measurable amount of precipitation occurred until Jan. 31. February rainfall was above the normal. "The first use of heating equipment occurred on Dec. 16 and heating was necessary thereafter In the polder portions of the Redlands section until Dec.

31. Some growers reported 14 consecutive nights of beating. In the Highland section, tiring occurred on seven nights of this period, and in the Rialto, Colton and Bloomington sections on sine nights. From Jan. 16 to 21, light heating was again necessary in the Redlands and Highland sections, but not in Rialto, Colton or Bloomington.

"Frost damage in heated groves was negligible, and, although damage in unheated groves was heavy, it was somewhat less than had been anticipated. The dryness of the soil and the consistently clear skies during the December and January frost periods favored high maximum temperatures, and the resulting large temperature inversion made it possible to maintain a safe orchard temperature with the use of only a portion of the heating equipment on most nights." 2,138 Acres Equipped With Orchard Heaters The Bloomington -Rialto section, f. was noted, now has 2,138 acres of citrus trees equipped with or chard heaters, a gain of 50 acres over the year before, while Colton has 121 acres, representing no crease over the year before. The Utter total largely represents the heaters in the W. J.

Barnhill and Barnhill estate groves, and a few in the same vicinity, recognized as among the best in the district. In the Redlands district there are 8,579 acres equipped with heaters and in the Highland section, 1,408 acres, representing Increases of 474 and 50 acres, respectively, during a year's period. Temperature stations In the vi cinity of Colton were maintained at the Barnhill grove, Citrus and Pennsylvania Clark grove, Olive and Grand, and at the Grove grove corner of Spruce and Slover, Bloom ington The coldest morning was that of Christmas day, with 23 degrees be ing shown upon the Clark grove recording. The variation in temperatures at the three stations is noted, some of the low marks being as follows: Dec. 22 Clark, 26; Barnhill, 29; Grove, 29 degrees.

Whether Redlands boulevard, principal thoroughfare entering this community from the west, shall be renamed Yucalpa boulevard. Is an issue that virtually "stole the show" at tonight's dinner of the Yucalpa-Cal-Imesa chamber of commerce.

President H. R. Sheppard climaxed IS minutes of speech-making on th subject by listing It as the pleca de resistance for the next monthly dinner. F. R.

Davles succeeded in gaining unanimous indorsement of hi motion for the president's appointment of a new committee to consider the street naming. Civic Leader Take Part in Ditcusslon Chairman M. A. Dunham, speaking for a committee that had been named to consider the renaming of Redlands boulevard and other thoroughfares, reported that the com mlttce had been unable to agree. This Inspired a statement from D.

M. Holslnger, who claimed the committee had been instructed to change names, and, falling to do so, had not discharged its duties. "The committee considered two propositions," said R. H. Arnett "One was to change the names ot all streets, starting on the south and naming all streets alphabetically, starting with A and continu ing north to Mill creek; starting on the east and naming all avenues numerically, starting with 1 and continuing to the edgo of the valley.

The second proposition was to rename Redlands boulevard and Yucalpa avenue. We found, among other things, that people residing on the streets in question, did not want the names altered." A. L. Colby, who took credit for having started the project a year ago and threatened to "finish the project," claimed that resident of the valley had been losing adver tising because motorists, reaching the edge of the valley after passing through Redlands, became con fused by the name "Redlands boule vard," and thus never found their way Into Yucalpa. Guests of the chamber tonight were member of the Redlands Lions club, and a delegation from Cherry Valley and Beaumont Pres ident Marshall Haughn brought official greetings from the Lions and the Cherry Valley delegation spoke in favor of a fire lookout, which would overlook Yucalpa and Cherry valleys.

Promises New Fir Truck for Yucalpa T. Shay, state forester, prom ised that the lookout would receive favorable consideration In Sacra mento, stating that a site above the Isaac Ford ranch in Oak Glen already had been chosen. He promised a fire truck for Yucaipa In six weeks, also intimating that Beaumont would get one soon. W. M.

Meier, Federal forestry of ficial, asserted that steps have been taken toward construction of a road across the hills between Mill creek canyon and Oak Glen to give equipment better access to the mountains while crews fight forest fires. Samuel Baumann presented a pe tition, which was handed to C. C. Castle for circulation, asking the board of supervisors to open a road, to be known as th Mill Creek-Oak Glen road, commencing at North Sixth street and connecting with the new Yucaipa-Oak Glen road. The Rev.

W. H. Stockton was pledged cooperation in his scheme to enlarge his motion picture producing hobby, to the point where It will be jot even greater service to youngsters and others of the valley. Will Cruickshank and F. R.

M. Knopsnyder, prominent business man of Colton and active participant in civic affairs of the city, former vice presidont of the organization, was elected president of the Colton chamber of commerce yesterday by the recently chosen board of directors, when a special meeting was held by the group to select the officers who will direct the chamber for the next 12 months.

Fred O. Lewis, who has served as treasurer of the organization for the past year, was reelected to that position by the committee, and the board voted to retain H. H. Burch as secretary. Fred M.

Snider will assume the duties of vice nresldent. a Ki nnaa Hra ri nflct fi at the meeting and no definite plans were worked out. The new president will appoint his committers for the year in the near future. Action Deferred On Salary Raise Although other directors expressed a desire to raise the monthly salary of Secretary Burch, who is completing his first year as a full-time official of the organization, action was deferred until the re turn of the president-elect, who was In Los Angeles on business yester day. In retiring from office President J.

N. Robinson paid tribute to the services of the secretary, and asserted that a monthly wage of $75 for the work was much less than the chamber officials should ex pect a qualified secretary to accept. Long Active In Chamber Affairs The three officials named by the board for executive duties have long been active in the leadership of the chamber's affairs. Both Mr. Knopsnyder and Mr.

Snider are past presidents, while Mr. Lewis was secretary for two years at the time when residents of the city had charge of this type of civic work, serving without remuneration. Because of the absence from the city for several months of Mr. Robinson, his place has been taken by Mr. Knopsnyder as vice-president.

The latter was also especially active two years ago In the raising of funds used In the construction of the office building. Judge Fails to See Joke; Fine Imposed While Police Judge James Temby of Colton admitted it might be little difficult for him to "see" some jokes, he failed utterly to put into this category the stunt of George P. Wood, of Colton, who In company with several other youths drove his car upon the sidewalk of Fleming Memorial park from one street to another. A group of girls was nearby and appeared to enjoy the performance, according to young Wood, who said it was only a form of a joke. Traf fic Officer J.

S. Bennett called it reckless driving, in handing the pilot a court citation, and Judge Temby yesterday classified it as being worthy of a $25 fine. Wood paid $10 and was given time to raise the balance. Three other citations were filed in the court, L. E.

McEvoy, of Riv erside, and T. R. Alford, of Arling ton, being charged with speeding and Joe Ceneceras, of Colton, with having no operator license. Report that the car of Clara Lewis, of Los Angeles, crashed into one being driven by Eugenia B. Knowles when the former stopped for the bell signals at Eighth and I street was filed with the police.

Philanthropist Tells Views On Prison Cement Operations Unique theories regarding prison reform are cherished by Robert Watchorn, Redlands philanthropist, who advocated the establishment of convict-operated cement plants when he addressed the Fortnightly club. Other prisoners could use the cement in constructing dikes along the Mississippi and other nnruiy rivers, he said. Mr. Watchorn's penal Institution would be built upon a colossal scale. The entire area would be made to contribute toward the general aim of elimination of the lawless from society at large.

"Making cement in a model prison would furnish free labor for all the cement required to curb the rivers," he stated. In conclusion Mr. Watchorn stated: "I look forward with Christian charity to the time when America will lead the world in so tempering justice with mercy that even the worst and most hopeless of sonvicts may be humanely treated though rigidly segregated from society and from those less hardened to crime, and therefore more hopeful of reclamation, and thus be able to Have to posterity a noble ocular demon stration of the exalted character of the world's greatest and most powerful republic."

Bryant of the National park service in the department of the interior; and Dr. H. S. Davis of the bureau of fisheries in the de partment of commerce, The committee's work will con cern nutritional diseases arising from over-stocked ranges, bacterial and parasitic diseases, and methods of control. Once the scientists have a definite understanding of each of the chief disease problems, they will draw up a plan of attack and recommend to the various bureaus concerned that each in Its own field carry out the program adopted, Problems of Combating Diieaie Are Studied Problems of combating the diseases and other natural enemies of the bobwhite quail in the South have been studied extensively by bloloeists of the bureau of blologi cal survey, aided by zoologists of the bureau of animal industry, in cooperation with a committee of in terested sportsmen.

The problems of maintaining the quail and grouse populations in other parts or tne country are also receiving the attention of qualified scientific Investigators in cooperation with the department of agriculture. Collabora tion of the same organizations has resulted In an apparently final solu tlon of the cause of western duck sickness, a malady that has been responsible for killing off millions of wild fowl. Members or tne Dureau of animal industry and of the biological survey have made great progress also in studies of the dis eases and the internal parasites oi various species of wild mammals, and entomologists of the bureau of entomology will continue their studies of the insects and other ectoparasites that are responsible for diseased conditions of the valuable species of wild life. A comprehen sive effort for the protection of wild game from disease will thus be In augurated. Colton Clubwomen to Hear J.
