ditions at Points Below

That the lower part of the Valley has
inadequate service in regard to river
reports are then telegraphcd back to
established, one near the La Feria
pump and the other near Brownsville.
was recently brought to the attention
of the Brownsville Chamber of Com,
secure the establishment Of these gau-
ges and also additional telegraphic
service from points up the river.
At present the lowest point on the
river 10 have n government gauge is
Mission. A gauge is also located at Rio
Grande City, and telegraphic reports
from those gauges are relayed through
the Brownsville telegraph office to San
Antonio. In the event of high water the
reoorts are then telegraphed back to
Brownsville from San Antonio.
Reports Of little Value 7--' :
Reports from Mission are of very
little value TO the lower section OF the
Valley. as the flood waters, flowing
from the Rio Grande through the Ar
roya Colorado on the American side and
the Arroyo del Tigre on the Mexican
side, leave the river below that point.
These arroyos are the safety valve for
the lower section of the Valley. and un-
til the gauges are established whereby
the flow through these natural outlets
can be ascertained. the lower section Of
the Valley has no means Of arriving
at an accurate forecast of river stages
during flood periods.
The suggestion has been made that
gauges be established on the lower riv-
er. and the dissemination Of river infor-
nation be made through the Browns
Vile weather bureau. W. J. Schnurbusch
local meteorologist. has signifed his
approval of the plan il il is acceptable
to the weather bureau department. The
proposal has been placed before the
San Antonio office. and then sent in to
Washington. Favorable action is expec-
ted at an early date.
Additional Weather Service.
Efforts are also being made to have
the Brownsville weather bureau liaccd
on the telegraphic circuit, Civ ng the
office morning and evening reports
from the important centers If the Uni-
ted States. If the circuit j. established
the local office will have complete ia
cilities for making up forecasts Cor the
Valley.
At present many Of the Valley towns
are receiving daily weather forecasts
from Houston. and in some instances /.
has been learned, these forc ,as.s are
not being made public. An effort is now
being made TO secuH cooperation ~
such organizations a. the Citrus Ex-
change in the dissemination of the
forecasts and warnings 10 those who are
interested in receiving them.

showed more speed than the local elcv-

Vile was clearly outplayed, and did not
lose on a fluke, as the two previous
games are said to have been lost. The
breaks Of the game went about even.
Fumhles were numerous on account OF
the wet ball and muddy field, but re-

have one consolation in that they lost
