WEST LAfxE-WHERE JOY REIGNs UNCONFINED

That's where the crowds flocked yesterday and will again b@ found tonight-at West Lake, Birmingham's playground. With all kinds of in- nocent amusement. and where recrea- tion means just what the word im- plies, West Lake Is daily coming to be the one amusement spot of the Birmingham district.
 Beating. bathing. dancing and skating do not make up all of the features to be had at this popular resort. For those who do not wish to indulge in these forms of amuse- ment. there is the radio feature, which has attracted wide attention
 That West Lake has gained the reputation of being the one popular resort for old and young alike is attested by the merry picnic parties which are held there daily.
 West Lake has the finest dance floor. the best music and ono of the best pools to be found anywhere, and with these facilities and the added reputation of Nappi's famous orchestra. why shouldn't the crowds flock to so popular a resort7

FLOOD EXPECTED
Highest Water in History Looked
 For on Rio Grande
Ky Associated Press

San Antonio, Tex, June 19.-Possi- bility of the worst flood in the his- tory of the lower Rio Grande val ley is seen in an unconfirmed report that the San Juan river in Mexico IS on rampage and that the flood water from it may enter the Rio Grande at the same time flood waters which passed Eagle Pass Sunday night reach Rio Grande City.
 The fact that the storm which en- tered Mexico several days ago has been lost" lends some color to the report. If 1t is true and the water of the San Juan joins that of the crest of the Rio Grande flood, fed eral weather observers here believe 1t would produce a flood unparalleled in the history of the valley. . As far as can be learned there has been no loss or life in the Rio Grande flood unless 1t be on the Mexican side. Property damage, however. has been great.
