SOLD TO BRICK;
WEST COAST co.

Announcement is made Of the
completion Of deal whereby the
West Coast thcaters and Arthur
Brick, the latter of this city, take
over the Tulane theater here, own
ed by Charles T. Ferguson. The
sale has been pending for some days
and in anticipation of its consum-
nation, the Tulane has been closed
for several days.
Mr.. Brick states that the theater
will be run rs a first class house,
similar to tn policy carried out in
the Valley and Palace kheaters, also
owned by the same interests.
The Tulane, which seats 400 per-
sons and which was entirely reno
waited and improved at the time
Ferguson opened it, some time ago,
is complete in every way and has,
in addition to its other furnishings,
splendid photo-play organ which
will be retained
Due to the fact that the hot
season is approaching it is doubt
full if the new acquisition will be
opened until fall, according to
Brick, who, however, expects to
operate the open airdome theatcl
of the Tulane on Sixth street.

THOUSANDS SEE
u. s. FLEET SAIL
FROM SAN PEDRO
BY United Press Leased Wire

san PEDRO, Calf, April 3.-A
cheering threng of thousands lined
the local waterfront for a parting
glimpse of the United States fleet
as it leaves the harbor this after
noon on the first leg of its historic
journey to Hawaiian waters, via
San Francisco.
Eleven dreadnaughts, headed by
the L. S. S. Seattle, flagship of Ad-
miral RobeN. f. Coontz, fleet COM
mander, and nearly 100 auxiliary
craft were to weigh anchor in the
local harbor at l p. m. and sails
northward.
Half an hour later, tho remainder
of the fleet from San Diego was
scheduled to join tho main squadron
off Point Fermin, where the com
bined armada forms in Catalina
channel and steams off below the
horizon.
Tn, grounds of Fort Macarthur
were thrown open to the public and
furnished advantage ground for
$4,000 spectators to view the de-
parting naval force.
Augmenting the grand review of
the naval fleet prior to the sail
ing, the army staged colorful air
show with flyers from Glover Field,
at Santa Monica, and Rockwell
Field at San Diego.
The ar display included forma-
tion flying, a sham battle, and ae-
rial stunts.
The fleet, after assuming column
formation off Point Fermin, will
divide into two groups and engage
in tactical maneuvers up the coast
to San Francisco The schedule
calls for entrance at the Golden
Gate shortly after day-break. There
the ships will anchor until April Is
when they sail for Honolulu.
The fleet is due at Honolulu ON
April 9th, where extensive maneu-
vcrs are planned. Half the sea
force will then return 20 the Paci-
fic coast ON the way to Atlantic
waters and the remaining 75 vessels
will make 4 friendly visit to
Agtral;a, returning 20 the local
harbor the latter part of ept.mber.

Cudahy Interests Plan $4,000
PRECEDING Plant For Grapes;
First Plant of Kind in Valley

The first air-dry preceding
plant ever installed in Imperial
Valley is under construction for the
Cudahy Farm Operating Company
at its railway siding on the Braw-
ley to Holtville highway.
1t is located at Sandin, about
half mile north Of the nearest
Cudahy' Farm Operated Vineyard,
and about four miles from Holtville.
The Cudahy Farm Operating
Company now operates under lease
1880 acres of early table grapes in
theis second to third year with
about 420 acres of grapefruit.
The Cudahy Packing Company
people of Chicago own the Cudahy
Farm Operating Company of Cali
fornia and the erection of this
$4,000. preceding plant is only
one Of many indications that they
intend to produce, care for and pro-
fitably market some Of earliest and
best table grapes that ever did
credit to this wonderful valley,
noted for producing the earliest and
best in fruits and winter vegetables.
The plant will be "the last
word" in efficiency, with a cap
acity of 5000 crates of table grapes
daily and a dry.air circulating

system which will lower the tenn
perature Of the fruit go degrees be-
fore it enters the refrigerator cars.
Cars will be backed up TO the
preceding plant on tho company s
own rails, there vestibuled to the
chilled interior and the fruit loaded
without ever being exposed to out
door heat in transit.
The effect of this treatment and
handling upon the early table
grapes grown by the Cudahy inter
ests in Imperial Valley will have
much to do with their quality and
marketability when they reach the
large cities of the east.
Edward A. Cudahy, Sr,, president
Of Cudahy Packing Company, Chi
cago and president of Cudahy Farm
Operating Company of California
was in Imperial Valley n few weeks
ago. After looking over the con
ditions of the company's vineyards
and grapefruit groves, he approved
the plans of Superintendent Robert
j. Mather, to build and operate the
preceding plant.
= The Parker Iron Works Inc. of
San Bernardino are installing the
equipment and the plant will be
ready for operation early in May.

M'lVER PLA Us
AN APRIL FOOL
PRANK ON CLUB

Frank H. McIver, chairman Of the
day at the weekly luncheon Of the
FL Centre Rotary club Yesterday,
played an April Fool joke on his
rllowRotarians, which they are re
ported to have swallowed hook,
line and sinker
"Mac' told them the day was
Rotarians Day and that every
member of the club had 20 make n
speech, sing song, recite, or de
something that showed he possessed
a voice, or suffer the penalty of a
s. fine.
Showing the thrifty spirit of the
Rotarians, 2S of them, representing
every man present, responded to
the invitation, and several, in order
to make certain they would not have
to pay the fine, spoke two or three
times. A few ventured to sing,
much to the annoyance of the
others.
Following THO "play'' part Of
the days program, McIyer gave a
very interesting talk on "Water
and the New West, y in which he
outlined the prominent part which
water has played in the settling OF
the country west of the Rockies,
and pointed out that without water
to convert the natural arid sections
of the west into farm lands, much
of the west S prosperity would not
have been possible.
Irrigation systems are necessary
for storing the water through dry
seasons. and distributing it in areas
where theme is no rainfall, he said,
and he gave short history of ir-
rigation from the time of the am
cient Pharaohs down to the present
modern systems.
Hale Mosler, of Yakima, Wash
ington, gave a short talk on the
cred Apple for which the Yaki-
ma Valley is as famous as Imper-
ial Valley is for its eantaloupe and
lettuce.
L. NJ Hutchison of Calexico also
made a few remarks, covering the
good wishes of the Rotarians from
the border city.

One JAILED AS
GREAT HAUL IS
MADE BY SHERIFF
Two Stills, 500 Gallon
Mash Tank, Much
Booze Found

One of the biggest moonshine'
hauls made by the sheriff IS office
since Sheriff Gillett took charge of
the department., occurred this morn
ing Il short distance northwest of
Dixieland, when Deputy .Sheriffs
Oswalt, Evans and Corneilson, and
Officer Childs of the state traffic
department, arrested Tom Tunstall
ON charge of manufacturing
liquor.
Evans and Oswalt arrived at the
Jail shortly before noon today, with
! Tunstall and five fivegallon jars
of moonshine liquor in the car, and
made a call for help to enable them
to get the remainder of the plant
which Tunstall was said to be ope-
rating, into the jail.
AS soon as possible, Sheriff Gill
lett and every deputy who could
be spared, left for Dixieland, to-
gether with Il truck, in which the
remainder of the liquor supply was
to be hauled into this city.
The officers reported finding two
stills operating full blast, with
Tunstall in charge. One still has
Il capacity of 60 gallons, and the
other holds 30 gallons. Twenty
barrels of mash, and massive 500
gallon tank, also full of mash, were
found at the still, together with a
80 gallon hogsheal, full of finished
liquor, ready for bottling and 1900
pounds of sugar.
According to report made to the
sheriff S office, two men, one white,
and one coiored, are said to have
=! been operating the still with Tuns-
tall, although he was on the job
alone when the officers called, and
offered no resistance when told he
was under arrest. The still, the
! Officers said, is one of the most
completely equipped that has ever
been found in the valley.
/ When Tunstall was booked at the
! jail he gave his age rs 3S, and his
J occupation rs an aviator, which one
of the officers remarked is an APP
i propriate name for an alleged
moonshiner. Tunstall conversed
freely about his liquormaking ae
tivities, and told Sheriff Gillett
that the still cost him $900Sto fix
up.

Clementel's resignation came dur
