tween San Benito and Harrington. the
grid season in this section goes in
70 its sixth week Friday.
Harrington and San Benito are the
only remaining undefeated teams IN
the Valley, and with both having
comparatively weak opponents for
the day, the play is expected to do
little TO clarity the situation or
break the deadlock now existing be-
tween the two teams.
San Benito has won four games
while the Cards have COPIED five,
both having disposed Of those teams
accounted the most dangerous, the
Greyhounds playing most Of the Har-
lingen foes a week behind their III
vals and rolling up a larger score IN
most instances.
Both towns have a smooth, we'll
oiled grid machine, but the Cards
still feel TO q certain extent the loss
of Lawrence. the veteran field gen
eral, who was ruled ineligible af-
ter the second game Of the season.
Meet Last Day
The two teams are scheduled for
q meeting TO settle the dispute be-
tween themselves on the last day OF
the season. Dec. III. Meanwhile some
method will have to be devised for
picking the team that viii repre-
sent the Valley conference in the
district tournament that will start
Thanksgiving, il neither Oh these
teams IS defeated by that time.
The Valley will not take part in
the state tournament, according to
q ruling Of the League heads, but
will content itself in battling for
the championship Of district Is, COM
posed Of Cameron, Hidalgo, Willacy,
Starr, Arkansas, Brooks, Duval, Jim
Hogs, Jim Wells, Kennedy, kle-
berg, San Patricio and Zapata coun-
ties, and will play in one bi-district
tilt, with district No. Is.
San Benito probably has the hard
er game Of the two Saturday, being
scheduled 10 do battle with the
Donna team on the l~atter's field.
The Redskins have lost only two
games, one Of these defeats having
leen administered by the powerful
Cards.
Raymondville will invade Harlin-

could be found in the bathroom.
The body was found last night by
the husband, Carl Wood, when he

MOTE CONTINUES
LEGAL FIGHT IN
PHONE MERGER
Commission Denies Petition
to Merge Indiana
Companies.

Despite the fact that he and other
officials of the Associated Telephone
Company were roundly scored in a
decision Of Commissioner Clyde H.
Jones, denying petition for a tele-
phone merger in northern Indiana,
Carl H. Mote, Indianapolis utility
lawyer, announced today that he
would either secure rehearing in
the matter or seek, a court ruling
nandating the Indiana Public Ser.
vice Commission to grant the
merger.
The merger petition was to permit
the. Associated Telephone Company,
Of which Mote is president, to pur-
chase the Walkerton, North Liberty
and Nappanee Telephone Companies
for S135, 900. All commissioners
agreed that this was $4,000 too high.
The Jones order was concurred in
by Chairman John w. McCardle and
Commissioner Howell Ellis. Com
missioners Frank Wampler and
Frank IT. Singleton concurred in the
denial, but he did not approve of the
sermon connected with it.
Permission to issue $191, 900 in Sc
curities was also denied. Ten other
petitions for merger Of telephone
companies in northern Indiana by
the company are now pending.
The Jones order characterized the
consolidation as merely a promotion
scheme" and took issue on the fact
that the Associated securities are to
be placed in the hands Of the United
Telephone Company, q Delaware cor
poration, and holding company, over
control.

PRIMARY SAFETY
ME- ASURE CHANGED
Bill Modified in House,
PaSsed/to Senate.

A considerably modified Bender
Hughes safety" primary bill is in
the hands of the Senate today after
passing the House late Monday, II
to 20.
The bill is designed to save pri-
mary elections from 'bossism."
1t raises the fine for duplicate>vot-
ing to 500, provides that any ten
candidates can appoint watchers at
precincts, forbids candidates to ac-
cept money for withdrawing from a
race and prohibits voters from
changing their political party from
one primary to the next without
signing an, affidavit. The latter pro-
vision was designed to prevent voters
of one political party voting in the
primary of the opposition and choos-
ing a weak candidate.
The original bill provided fof dupli-
cate ballots to be kept in the custody
of courts to be counted in event of a
demand for recount. This pro-
vision was stricken out in committee
as being too expensive.
