TO PUSH GOOD ROADS IS
PURPOSE OF CHAMBER
COMMITTEE
Will Meet With the State Highway
Commission to Urge
improvements
Road to Brawley Must BE Paved at
Once is Claimed by
Sec. C0yle

The Chamber of Commerce is e.,-
deavoring to arrange for meeting
of its roads committee with the Sta t.
Highway Commission for the puc~
pose of speeding ur construction Ct
state highways provided for in In
perial county. Particularly does tn =
Ell Ccntro Chamber desire that tn ,
road from Brawley to this city be
paved Immediately.
The importance OF this stretch of
highway can hardly Ne over estimated
in the judgment of Secretary Coylc.
The dirt road is often impossible and
even when rains do not fall f.:
months at a time, it is so cut up AIT!
rough that hauling over it or eva
riding over it in the most luXurio.:;
automobile is exceedingly difficult
and uncomfortable. The traffic be-
tween Holtville or the south part Of
the county and FL Centro and its
pavement is among the most needed
improvements contemplated.
Just at this time. the only work be-
ing carried on in the Valley by the
State Highway Commission is the
widening Of the Trifolium road north
of Westmorland and the construction
of the ten miles of known Holtville-
Yuma highway.
The Chamber of Commerce will do
its utmost to secure the proposed
meeting with tie State Commission
and will press it's claim to the limit.

GOLF ENTHUSIASTS
LOOK TO BIG CONTEST
United v'reSs Leased Wire

DEL MONTE, Calf, Jan. H.
| Golf enthusiasts are looking forward
with much anticipation and pleasure
to the scheduled matches between
Barney and Hutchison and John
Black and Mcdonald Smith on the
Pebble Beach and Del Monte courses
Sunday, January %. Eighteen holes
will be played over each course in a
low ball match.
There has been great demand for a
match that would bring the eastern
ers against Black and Smith, and
this arrangement whereby the four
some will play the two courses used
for the state championship tourney
should be productive of some rare
sport.
The two local professionals have
met "Jock and Jim" before, but not
as a team. There is no question but
that the famous linksmen will have
to exhibit the best golf they have
shown since their advent on the coast
! if they are to be returned victors
over Smith and Black. Preparations
are being made to handle a banner
gallery. Nearby resorts at Monterey,
Carmel, Pebble Beach, and Del Monte
expect to be crowded for the occasion.
