YANKEE STADIUM, New York,
Oct. 4.-Waite Hoyt held the st.
Louis Cardinals in the hollow of his
hand today and the "crippled :
New York Yanks won the all-im-
portant first. game of the 1923
world series by the score of 4 to j..
In the presence of some 10000 or
more fans, the American league
champions, who went into the series
as the underdog, looked every incll
like champions, while the Redbirds
were helpless before Hoyt, who held
them to three hits.
Willie Sherdel, who was sent in to-
stop the Yankees with a slow ball,
found Eabe Ruth and Lou Gehrig
in most ferocious mood, and was
taken from the box for pinch hit
ter after the American leaguers had
sewed up the game.
A home run by Bob Meusel in the
fourth inning scoring the Babe
ahead of him, gave the Yankees u
lead which the National league pen-
nant winners came close to over
coming.
Jim Bottomley, st. Louis first
baseman, hit tremendous homer
in the seventh, which accounted fori
st. Louis only run.

After Sherdel had been taken
out for q pinch hitter in the eighth
inning Sylvester Johnson finished
FOR the Cardinals.
The pitching selections for tho
second game, which will be played
here tomorrow are Grover Cleveland
Alexander for st. Louis, and George
Pipgras for New York.
Scoring a run off Sherdel in the
first inning of a world series gama
was nothing new for the Yanks.
Two years ago Sherdel opened the
series for the Cardinals and yielded
a run to the Yanks in the opening
round. That run which helped beaG
him, to /, was the result of three
bases on balls.
Today's first inning score by the
Yanks was due to the wee Willie's
good control. He got the ball over
the plate and Ruth and Gehrig hit

Directors Vote
To Retain Greer

meeting of the board of directors
of the Imperial Irrigation District
some time ago by Ira Aten, seek
ing to have the office of publicist,
held by f. w. Greer, declared void,
was voted down Tuesday by the di-

In presenting the resolution Aten
declared that he felt the office had
accomplished the work for which it
was created and that he felt further
expenditure along that line would
only be a burden to the taxpayer.
c. w. Brockman sided with Aten in
this view.
Directors Rose and Blair and Presi-

the vacating of the office at this
time. They hold that the office,
created for the purpose of educating

ARGUMENT OVER
MONEY ENDS IN
SHOOTING SCRAPE
Mesquite Lake Resident
Shot At CalexicO During
Scuffle.

NJ. K. Thompson of Mesquite Lake
district was shot and quite badly
wounded at a ranch house mile
and a half northwest of Calexico
last night by Bert Hobson of the
Calexico district. Thompson was
taken to the Calexico hospital with
three bullet wounds in his body
but none are believed to be Of a
serious nature. Thompson was re-
moved to his home this morning.
An alteration is said to have
preceded the shooting. Hobson
was sought by police Immediately
afterward but surrendered himself
voluntarily at the sheriff's office
a few minutes after report of the
shooting was received here. After
explaining his side of the story to
the sheriff, he was released ON his
own recognition.
Hobson told the sheriff that
Thompson and his wife. came to the
ranch near Calexico last night. Some
time ago he and Thompson had
been in business together and later
Thompson worked for him. He
owed Thompson money but said
that his property had been attach
ed and had held up the payment.
According to Hobson, Thompson
demanded the money and an argu
ment followed with Hobson final
ly resorting to q revolver. Hobsor
told the sheriff that he had fired
twice into the air but that Thomp
son had refused to leave and he
then sought to cripple him. He de
clared that Thompson and his wife
were both more or less under the
influence of intoxicants.
Second Story Given
Another version of the shooting
however, has been offered in which
it was claimed that Thompson and
his wife had gone to the Hobsor
place to discuss the matter of q
stove belonging to them and and
which Hobson had at the ranch
house. 1t was further declared il
this report that Mrs. Hobson and
Mrs. Thompson got into heated
argument with Hobson and Thomp
son joining in the squabble and th'
shooting ended the tussle.
A thorough investigation of the
matter is to be made by the dis
trict attorneys office.
At the hospital it was reported
that Thompson had been shot II
three places. One bullet Wen
through the left hand, shatterinl
two of the knuckles. A second bul
let entered she right side and tool
a downward course, lodging in th
thigh. The third bullet wound wa
in the left side, just grazing tn
