CALlpATRLA, March l6.--The
Imperial Valley high school base
ball season opened this week with
q game between Imperial and Cali
patria teams, on the 1atter s grounds,
the home boys meeting their Water
loo with q score of l3 TO 2. Fumbles
and poor team work seemed to be
the main cause for the one sided
score, but the Calipatria boys are
not discouraged by any means. Bob
Provine behind the bat showed good
material which only needs practice
to be- a winner. Ferguson showed
exceptionally good playing for this
being his first game. Jones on first
gave promise of reserve strength.
With one more season playing the
local boys believe they have Il
