Centr al Girls
Meet Yuma in
Game Friday
By r. j. KLIEGEL
Press High School Reporter

Providing that old Jupiter Pluvius
does not stage Il comeback and flood
the basketball courts, the Central
girls champion basketball team will
play the Yuma girls in Basketball
tomorrow afternoon at 2:30. Last
year the girls played at Yuma and
beat the visitors, this year Yuma is
coming over here to beard the lion
in his den, if possible. Although
the two schools are rather far apart =,
= strong feeling of good fellowship
has sprung up between them, and
the visiting team will be guests OF
the school while they are here. Ever
since their visit to Yuma the local
girls are always telling about the
wonderful time they had while there
and are going to show the Yuma
girls an equally good time if they
can.

Scorpions and
.Orientals Plan
For Tough Game

Games scheduled in the Imperial
Valley League for Sunday, February
4, are III Centre at Holtville, Draw
ley at Calexico, and Calipatria at
III Centre 10 play the Independents.
In iollreying over to Holtyiile to
mix things up with the Orientals,
tie Scorpions have the toughest
assignment of the day and will
have to ,k Yep going mt full speed at
all times in order to come out on
the right end of the score. The
Oricntals are going like a house
Attire and it would give them great
pleasure to be able TO put the skids
under the boys from the county seat
Sunday afternoon. The Scorpions
are playing good ball also, and with
tie incentive of leading the league
to make them play better, the other
teams are going to have hard sled
ding to pull them down from the
ace lligh position. With the Tackett
boys, Ellis, Buck, Baker, Kepley,
and the other boys forming formid-
! able wrecking crew, few pitchers
J are going W tdhc MANY CHdhCch
pitching to them.s
Good Scrap at Border
Brawley. and Calcxico should have
u good scrap in the border city, with
the odds in favor of the home team
which is at present tied with Cali
patria for second place. Brawley
will be under the disadvantage OF
playing away from home, and has
not had the success this season that
f, Calexico has had.
The game between the Inlapcnd
cuts and Calipatria should have onl,
one outcome, for the Independents
do not seem to be able to pull them
selves together sufficiently TO stan,
up and play ball. However, nothing
is certain in baseball and surpris,
might be forthcoming. Sunda,
night should see the Scorpions firml'
cntrcnchcd in first place and witt
only two more games to go for tn
pennant.

Ban y hnson Has
Tall Chance for
Son e Explaining
BY HENRY L. FARRELL.
(Uu ed Press Sports Editor)

MY I YORK, Feb. |. - Every
time anything like the present
RUB Benton case comes to light,
the mistakes made in the days be-
fore Commissioner Lands took
charge of baseball arc made more
striking.
The tendency to use the white
wash brush instead of the iron rod
is responsible for every mess into
which organized baseball has found
itself.
Figuring that some safety rested
in silence and that the interests of
business demanded a covering up,
organized baseball took the atti.
tude that the Hal Chase, Heine Iim-
norman, Lee Magee, Benton and
other cases were none of the fans
business and they allowed the pub
lie to think as it wished.
SO in 1919 it is not surprising that
the "Black Sox' thought-"'We
can get away with this. Even il
we do get caught, they won't let il
OUT
Ban Johnson has always aspireC
to the role of the watchdog of base
ball, the guardian of the, grand ma
tional pastimc, always on duty tt
watch and safeguard the sport.
Since he was the first to rais'
the row publicly about the return o,
Ruhc Benton to the ma or league
Ban probably thinks his duty nobll
done in this instance.
In advancing any claims for homo
and glory in this case, however, Ban
might explain why it was that i
took him three years to complain
that Benton made bet on the Gin
cinnati Reds in the 1919 world
series.
Some day when he is in Il rcminis
cent mood, Ban also might cXplai
why it was that the White SoX scal
dal was never made public by hir
until it looked like the SoX were &C
ing to beat out the Cleveland III
dams for the 1920 pcnnant, whe
Ban had known about the scand;
for Il year.
Ban and John Heydlcr, nation;
league president, and COMMISSIONS
Lands might also explain how the
can allow Benton to play i'll Il mine
league without protest, if he is ba
red from the major.

Then the sinewy strength OF its trunk
is most evident, the white of it's bark
is the clearest. the structure of its
noble head is most apparent and the
fine spray of its delicate branches
stands clear-cut in exquisite tracery
against the sky."-Harriet l.. Keeler.
1t is wide-spreading, symmetrical
tree, forty to fifty feet high. some
times to 100 feet, with a trunk di-
ameter of two To four feet. The
bark is very smooth, light ashy gray
in color, unfurrowed. The leaves are
papery thin. ovate. sharp pointed,
saw w-toothed and light green on both
sides. In the far they turn to
golden yellow The fruits are the
we'll known beechnuts. They are
small. brown, three-sided nuts. borne
in tiny burrs, two in each burr.
The beech ranges from Nova Scotia
to Lake Huron. south to Florida. A
European beech. closely resembling
our own. though with more deeply
tinted bark and leaves. and va
riety. the purple OF copper beech, is
also much cultivated in this country.
All may be found in Washington. In
Lafayette Park there is a purple beech
and also cut-leaved variety. The
American beech is prevalent in the
Zoo and in Rock Creek Park. The
tree illustrated is the European
beech. 1t is growing on the Mall
north Of the Smithsonian Institution
and is as magnificent a specimen as
one could wish to see.
