The Somerton baseball team had a taste of big league stuff when the Fourteenth infantry went down to the valley metropolis last week and took their pets into camp to the tune of X to 2.
 Watterson was the big noise for the Fourteenth, he holding down the Son. erton sluggers to one hit. A wild pitch, and an error by Pelly--the only one made by the Fourteenth, let in the two Somerton runs.

Col Wilson is certainly keeping the boys of the Fourteenth infantry busy, for it is an ordinary thing to see the entire two battalions out on the mesa going through drills, inspections and the like. The weather is so fine that the genial Colonel thinks it a good time to keep the boys busy working out army problems.

Practically all the peach trees ill Yuma Valley are in blossom, which means that spring-time is here. It was cloudy enough the first three days this month so the grounding couldn't make shadow in the early morning hours, therefore it follows that we will have fine and even spring, for you know the ground hog never lies.

FIRST TRUST AND SAVINGS BANK
CONSOLIDATED WITH PARENT
CORPORATION.
FIRST TRUST AND SAVINGS
CORPORATION IS ENDED
Surplus, Undivided profits and De-
posts Of First Trust and Savings
Consolidated With Accounts Of First
Observation-Disclosures Of Deposits
Gives First National s2,oss,s2s.

As the direct result Of important
changes made in the federal reserve
bank law last June, which permits ma
tional banks now to loan on real estate
up to one-third Of their combined time
and savings deposits, the stockholders
Of the First National Bank, Of this city,
voted to consolidate and combine their
savings bank with their national bank,
and today there Is no longer a First
Trast and Savings Bank corporation
but instead the First National Bank
owns all Of the surplus and undivided
profits sof the savings bank and has
taken over the deposits Of its allied
bank, presenting q combined statement
showing one bank where there had
been two, but big bank with>a capital
Of 100000 plus surplus and undivided
profits of $4,000 and custodian for
combined deposits Of $2,053, 1926.
Dual Corporation No Longer Needed.
Prior to the liberalizing Of the federal
reserve bank law, state and savings
banks would not join the federal re-
serve association because they cou!o
not loan on real estate mortgages and
national banks were compelled to set
up separate savings bank corporations
to handle their savings deposits under
state charters which would permit
them to loan on real estate. With the
removal Of the restrictions the dual
corporation organization was no longer
needed.
The savings bank had capital Of
$1,000 owned by the same stockholders
who owned the First National Bank,
and in the same relative amounts rs
their holdings in the big bank. They
now take back their original invest
ment Of $4,000 in the savings bank,
turning over to the national bank their
surplus and undivided profits, together
with their deposits.
The First Trust and Savings Bank
had capital $4,000, surplus and
profits $31, 900, deposits $3.50. sos.
The First National Bank had capital
5000, 900, surplus and profits $4,000, de-
posits 31,407,s00.
There was $4,000 Of the savings
banks deposits redeposited in the ma
tiona1 bank, which was duplication
50 that the combined deposits today
are $2,053,325; capital, 100000; sur
plus and undivided profits, $4,000.
