Heights Casino i'm
Easy Tennis Wiz,
Over Princeton

Heights Casino almost made clean
sweep of its dual indoor tennis meet
with Princeton University on the
formers courts yesterday IN the only
match OF the nine dropped by the ex-
perienced home team, the score ran in
to extra sets, with Harold Taylor. 4
former junior nationa. champion, win
ner over Valentine p. Havens.
Although the Casino players man
aged to end all of their eight winning
matches in straight sets, deuce sets
were frequent. and the colieeians real
ly made d better showing than would
appear from the score. The three dou-
bles contests in particular were hard
fought.
The tussle between the respective
captains, Dean Mathey OF the Casino
and Charles NJ. Shipway Of Princeton,
ended in rather one-sded victory for
the former, G-1. 6-1. Mathey was far
too skillful tactcian, too versatile
and too fast foy his younger opponent.

RIVER FLOOD IS
MENACE TO VALLEY
Continued from Page u

nel The amount of damage possible to
be done under such conditions it is i'm
possible to estimate.
The government spends millions an
nually to protect the people of the low
er Mississippi River Valley from the
floods. 1t should be brought to thor
ough understanding of the menace
that exists in the Colorado, and will
continue to exist every year, until
something has been done to check
, the flash floods of the Gila river, fol-
lowed by temporary dam in the Colo
RADIO at some point, as suggested by
George H. Maxwell, which would re-
| lieve the situation during the high
flood periods The irrigation projects
and power plans could then be develop
ed more lesurely as conditions war
rant.
There are many parts of the west
that are seeking congressional ap-
preparations for development enter
prises. AS Congressman Swing stated
in his talk to the League Of the South
west convention, congress and the east
is inclined to look upon the west as
| bowling constantly for pork barrel
attentions. One project of the char
acter of the Colorado river basin does
not look different to the congressman
from New York city from any other
demand for help from any other pro
ject in any other part of the country
But when there comes Il call for as
sistance to prevent a great flood with
resulting loss of life and property
congress is likely to see the justc
of an appropriation that will be ar
emergency measure.
There is every reason to believe
that the keen mind of Secretary Hoov-
er will Immediately grasp the funda
mental problems that are the most
pressing in connection with the handl-
ing of the Colorado river matter. He
is showing keen interest in the pro
ect and in addition to the hearings
that are planned for January, il
Washington, will probably come tc
Southern California for hearing il
this part of the country where the
people who are most concerned vii
have an opportunity of being heard.

MEXICALI, Jan. 2-Otto Moller,
young in years, new to many of the
people of the border twin cities, on
Sunday afternoon was chosen by the
municipal council of Mexicali to be its
president for, the coming year. His
elevation came as result of the cleo
ton held on Christmas day. The Mol
Ter ticket was successful, and he was
elected, with seven other members of
the board. The meeting was held in
the ayuntamiento, or city hall, and
was attended by many citizens.
The new presidente, or mayor, was
elected to the same position a year
ago. That is, he received a majority
of the votes east then, but the au-
thorities held that the election was IL
legal, and they annulled it on the
ground that severas hundred soldiers
voted, who were not entitled to vote.
Moller took the decision with good
grace. But he was not defeated in his
ambition TO eb the head of the mun;ci-
pal government. His campaign, re
sulting successfully this time, began
Immediately after his opponent was
seated, and during the year he has
gathered about him a band of loval
and active friends whose efforts were
untiring as his own.
Moller is native of Guaymas. In
his early thirties, he has always taken
an active interest in governmental af
fairs, priding himself upon being a

patriot. and not a politician. He came
to the Northern District at the end OF
the Cantu regime-just about the time
that General Rodriguez arrived with
his soldiers, when the general took ov-
er the command Of troops and military
operations in the peninsula.
The position he has been called up
on to fill is one of vast Importance
His office is second in authority and
scope of duties only to those of the
general government Of the district
The platform upon which he was elect
ed was broad and liberal and repre-
sented the demands of the growing
