 The New York Giants broke camp at Sarasota early yesterday morning and by motor and train went to Or lando, where the series with the White Sox will be resumed today.
 Thus far the Giants and Sox have played two games, each having scored victory. The Giants-SoX series will be played through the South and Mid dle West, winding up in Chicago on April 1S.
 John Watson and Denny Gearin are probably pitching selections for the Giants in today's game.
 Dewey Carpenter the Bristol athlete who appears here prominently in baseball, football and basketball, did not incur the favor of the crowd Sat urday night. The small but husky Hell City veteran gave great exhibition of rough playing that offset his really good work at shooting.
 At one stage of the game he gave Wojak what appeared to be deliber- ate punch.
 For an instant it seemed as If there would be mix-up, but then the New Britain center got control of his primitive instinct and laughed it off. This exhibition of clean playing and dislike for rowdy tactics on the part of the New Britainite brought him not little commendation from the crowd.

It's Raining In

Imperial Valley seems to be the
pleasantest place in Southern Cali
fornia today, strenuous breezes to
the contrary. From San Diego came
the report of rain this morning.
Rain was also reported at White
star on the San Diego road, and
word received from Jacumba at
noon indicated that rain had been
falling there for half IN hour.
From, the inland route word was
receiyed to the effect that heavy
clouds in the vicinity of San Ber-
nardino were clearing up, bat rain
was falling at Yucaipa. Hard winds
were reported between here and
Riverside.
Telephone reports from Los An
geles at the time of going to press
indicate that no--fain was falling
there, SO it appears that the storm
is confined to the extreme south

skid chains are suggested for the
