VALLEY GROWERS
URGED TO ACT In
DRY CAR CRISIS

In letter signed by j. M. Hud-
son, secretary of the Produce Ex-
change of Los Angeles, and recciv-
cd yesterday by vogooGbl2 dealers,
lettuce growers and shippers of Los
Angeles and Imperial county, a
foreeful presentation of the affects
of apathy and lack of, concerted ac-
tion on the part of local indivi-
duals and firms i'll connection with
the matter of shipping so-called
"dry' cars of lettuce is given.
The recent suspension by the In
terstate Commerce Commission of q
paragraph in the Perishibic Protoc-
tive Tariff means that ears may
be shipped without ice in the. bunk
ers until October IS, 1912. Though
a technical rather than Il practical
gain, this is Il great victory for
the shippers thus far. However, it
will mean little or nothing unless
proper representation and intclli-
gent prosecution is made at the
hearing before the commission in
Chicago on July 16.
Must Raise Money
For this purpose, it will be .nec-
essary to raise in cash the money
which will be required to employ
an attorney to handle the case, and
to defray his expenses, and the cx-
penscs of one or more witnesses
in making the trip to Chicago.
That the Imperial Valley lettuce
shippers are the ones most Vitally
interested in this affair goes with
out saying, and when it is remem7
bered that 2237 ears of lettuce were
shipped from this locality last sea-
son without ice in the bunkcrs, and
that each ear SO shipped represent
cd a net saving to the growers of
$40 over fully iced ears, the reasons
for cooperative action do not need
to be explained in further detail.
Plans are now being formulated
for u campaign to carry the present
temporary victory on to Il pCrma-
nent one. A special committee has
been appointed by the Produce EX-
change to carry out the wishes o.
Imperial shippers. Through the
medium of those organizations the
local growers may hope to accom-
plish farreaching results. 1t is un-
fortunate that there is no local co
operative organization to handle
the matter, but as there is not The
assistance of the exchange is all
the more timely.

 JONES TO PLAY. GOLF MC0CNIT0|

NEW YORK, Jan. 29. = The father of Robert T. Jones, bearing a relative claim to distinction with MT. Nation, husband of Carrie, is said to have be- come, 80 distressed over the failure of Robert T.. otherwise Robbie, to win 8 national championship in golf he suggests that Robbie change his name for purpose of future tournament play.
 It is thus hoped that Robert will avoid unwelcome attention, of which, ordinarily. he is the focal point.
 It seems that all the boys have be. come 50 impressed with Robbie and his ability that they do not hesitate to play their best golf against him, with the result that the young man is still without formal nodding ac quaintance with a national title. Some inconsiderate person, shooting par or better his always interrupted Robert just as he was about to get acquaint, ed.
 Low Scores Lost
 Low scores have eliminated Bob. bic from national championships never high ones, during recent years, and MT. Jones, pere, is of the opinion that the great name he bears is to blaine. The Joneses are so scattered and so few in number, it would appear, that any person of this name is as one set apart-a marked man.
 He would, therefore, have Robbie appear under an assumed name, and the rest of the field, being thoroughly taken in and off it's guard would not deem it necessary to resort to the oc- cult in dealing with the young man.
 Suppose, for example, Robbie comes out on the course for a first-round match with some leading amateur. His name is really Jones, but no one knows it. He is entered as x, the unknown quantity.
 Opponent Foled!
 "Ah, hal" says friend opponent, in private converse with himself, q shall play only par golf against this unworthy fellow. It is not fitting that I should squander a course record on one whose name is not Jones'"
 The result is obvious Robbie, un- hampered by malign influences which seek only his downfall will come home on the bit and on the final day will make dramatic revelation of his real identity just as the committee lines up to present him with the cham pionship cup. This will be done by re moving the false and misleading straw berry mark from under the armpit this having proved a simple though very effective disguise.
 There will be other years, of course and, a golfers memory being a long one, Robert will have to resort tc further subtleties. Possibly in 1922 he may enter under the name of Hill member of Well-knoWn Bunker fam fly, and everyone will think he iS some dub who spends half his time il sand traps.

POKER FACE OF NO AVAIL WITH
 NEW DEVICE

LONDON. Jan. 29.-"Poker faces" may be gift from nature or an ac- quired accomplishment, but, no mat ter how attained their value would be entirely discounted if a device on dis play at London science exhibit were to De adapted to the great American indoor sport.
 Suppose that a group of earnest de voices of poker are seated about a Igreen-clothed table. Attached to each chair is battery and a galvanometer. On a nearby wall there is a mirrored light on a 2o-foot scale.
 One of the players achieves that acme of the gamblers dreams-a royal flush. His face remains a blank, i'm penetrable mask, which gives off not the slightest indication of the tumult of emotions that surges through his veins.
 Emotions Registered
 But the variation of his emotions produced variation in the conduc- tivity of his skin. This variation is conducted to the galvanometer, and, presto the mirrored light on the wall scale begins dance of delight that is a plain "tip-off" to his fellow gam boilers that there is something doing behind the tightly-drawn curtain of their adversary's features.
 The player who would wager dime in face of such an indication would be fit subject for an alienist. It can readily be seen that science thus would have ruined pastime that has become national institution.
 The process narrated is suppositi- tious, of course, but it indicates the possibilities of a device for meas uring emotions' that is being dis played by Dr. Aveling at Kings Col lege here. It is but one of many weird things that science has con- iured up for the entertainment of wis itors to the exhibit. Sand Dance
 For instance, there is on display an exhibit known as the dancing sand" by which sand, electrically agitated, is made to form itself into patterns of stars, waves, squares and other odd manifestations. In another corner electrical impulses force water to rise'in jewels. A chemical clock, a | travelling bubble, a. luminous cascade, synthetic mirage and violet sun produced by 100000 volts of electrici- ] ty, with the current passing over a sheet of glass between two terminals, are other scientific wonders on dis play
 1 A stovepipe that complains in moan | ing accents of having been taken from the warmth of the fire is another device that interests spec tatcrs. One may also, through some galvanic magic, see through brick, |may visualize fruit produced from no where and view miniature theater,
 in which real actors seem the size of
 dolls.
 Aside from the purely fanciful con-
 tvaDt:0ns that delight the spectators, the exhibit likewise p0rtrays various devices of a practical nature, designed to aid industry and the cause of sci ence generally.
