Cambridge High School
Defeats Chestertown High

The Cambridge High School base
ball team brought its season to clos
by administering a decisive beating
to the High School lads from Ches-
tertOWn.
BY this victory the locals claimed
the championship of the Shore and
has the splendid record Of victories
and no defeats.
There were many fielding features
of the game but the catching of Rob-
inson who caught four would-be-

playing of second base is note worthy
and it would be inappropriate if

Opposed In second BY Josiah T..

The fact that two COMMISSIONERS
OF Cambridge will be elected next
month and that the date forenteF-
ine the primaries closed last Friday
evening has attracted thus far bnt
very little attention among the Fot-
ers or politicians OF Cambridge II
one is to Judge by the talk heard
about the election There have been
times in by-gone years when the eiec
ton OF the Commissioners of Cam
bridge excited as much Interest as
general election; candidates. were
announced months in advance aid
the friends and supporters OF the
various candidates were actively en-
gagged in boosting their faVoflteS
long long is advance OF the day OF
election. Those days appear to have
passed, elections come and elections
go and very little attention is paid
TO them. In the old days the Com
missioners received salary OF $50
year; now the Commissioners receive
about $3.50 2 year.
This year commissioners Will be
elected from two wards, the second
which is known as the colOred ward.
and the third which embraces the
section of Cambridge starting at
Commerce and High streets, taking
in the South side of High as far as
the standpipe then across to Muir,
taking in the North side of Muir to
the creek and all of the streets De
tween these two boundaries. In the
Third ward former Sheriff Thomas
B. Gator has no opposition. There
were two entries for the primary
election MI. Gator and former Com
missioner John B. RoZelle but MI.
Rozelle withdrew his papers this
morning leaving the field clear for
Mr.. Gator.
In the Second Commissioner H. NJ.
St. Clair is opposed by Josiah F.
Henry. brother Of former Com
missioner Nehemiah Henry. 1t is. of
course, impossible to tell what the
outcome OF the contest will be al
though the friends OF Commissioner
ST Clair claim that their candidate
will have q Walk-over.

Del Norte Winner
In Tuesday, S Game
DEL NoRTE .. MONTE 4

Del Norte defeated Monte last
Tuesday at Monte Vista by the score
Of 9 to 4.
The Monte Boys were unable to
hit Earl Bond with any success and
collected only five hits during tho
afternoon.
Del Norte hit when hits meant
runs and We're never headed OF at
any time. The boys from up the
river gathered twelve bingles dur
ing the session and went on their
way rejoicing.
Monte's inner defense cracked
several times during the game and
permitted Del Norte to register runs
that should have been easy outs.
The hitting of the Bond Brothers
and the air tight pitching of Earl
Bond was the outstanding feature
of the game.
The locals need to brush the cob
webs off their batting eyes II they
expect to make showing this sea-
son.
Next Sunday Monte plays at Ala
mosa's ball park. and the following
Tuesday Center comes down to bat
tie the home boys here. Let's see
every one out to the next game,
pulling hard for the boys from start
to finish.

New Mexico Is Fine
Place--For A Rest

Within a days auto drive from
Monte Vista is located one of the
best hot springs resorts in the U.
s. A.
This statement is made advisedly,
as Ojo Caliente is famous for re-
markable cures of people afflicted
with various forms of bodily ills.
The baths are of very great attrac-
ton to those acquainted with their
curative qualities. but the location
Of the resort and difficult roads act
somewhat as deterrent for large
patronage.
Caliente boasts fine modern
hotel, but changing management
has allowed the " cottages" and
surroundings to become very much
run down. Aside from the benefit
afflicted people get from the baths,
the resort would offer much greater
attraction to people not directly in
need OF the treatment IL more rec
reational features We're provided.
The Journal editor took his "an-
nual' at Caliente last week and we
received royal treatment from the
Josephs. who are now in charge OF
the resort, and not forgetting
George Cooper and "Nubbins." We

Is the second oldest In that state
and third Oldest in United States.
There is great deal OF auto
travel from the San Luis valley to
points In New Mexico and II would
seem that large Investment OF
road funds could well be invested by
our southern neighbors.
New Mexico is u place OF sand
