San Diego Paper
To Describe New
Laguna Route

The chamber of commerce has
been advised that the San Diego
Union will have a full page article
in its automobile section, on Sunday
August 10Th, descriptive of the pro-
posed new short route from FL
Centre to Laguna Mountains. The
first feature page of that section,
the "Motorlog' page, will be Civ
en- to the Laguna story.
The Laguna direct road is one of
the major projects on the program
of this years chamber of COM
merce activities, and it is hoped
that the road may be reality be
fore next summer. The Union s
decision to feature the new route in
its Sunday automobile section is
welcome news here, because most of
the road will lie in San Diego coun-
ty, and it is desired to familiarize
San Diego people with the project
and its advantages to both counties.
The cuts for illustration of the
Laguna story are now being prepar-
ID by the art department of the
Union, and a map of the route is
being drawn. Frank F. Longneck-
er, auto editor of the Union and
Tribune, is giving especial thought
to the descriptive article, with the
hope of making it exceptionally in.

Shipments Show
Fine Increase

Shipments from Imperial Valley
show fine increase for the first
Lalf of the year over the correspond
ing period Il year ago, as shown by
figures compiled by TIE Southern
Pacific Company.
Between January and June 80
of this year, total of 1856 ear
loads were shipped from the valley,
compared with 33,2l2 in the same
period of 1927, an increase of H.
47l ears. Lettuce, cantaloupes,
vegetables and hay form the bulk
Of the shipments.
Incoming shipments also have in
creased and though exact figures are
not available at this time, they will
be presented at a later date. This
increase is very gratifying to rail
road officials inasmuch as it has
lost this year, including shipments
of Ford ears, which amounted to
many carloads during 1927. Since the
new Ford was placed ON the mar.
kct, they have been rolled into tho
valley under their own power.
Eventually it is expected carlot
shipments will be resumed.

to treat for round worms at the

Burglars Visit
Business Houses

Burglars were unusually busy in
the city last night, and though their
efforts availed them very little in
the way of loot, the police and
sheriff S department were covering
every trail today in an effort to ap-
prehend the criminals.
The burglars seemed to make n
speciality of pool halls. Andy's
Place, at 456 Main street, operated
by Andy Vie, was included in their
visiting PAGES. Entrance was made
by skylight in the roof. The in
truder used straps, stolen from the
Valley Tent and Awning Company,
to descend from the skylight to the
floor. e.
In descending, however. the burg,
lar broke a chandelier, and the noise
of this is believed TO have frighten-
ed him away before he could get
anything other than a .3S caalibre
Smith and Wesson revolver.
Max Place, at 452 Main street,
was also entered but nothing was
taken, according to the report given
to the police.
The third place to be visited was
the California Auto Wrecking Com
pany at 442 Main street. Entry was
made by breaking window on the
east side of the building. The safe
was ransacked but as there was no
money in it, the thief contented
himself with appropriating Il few
shares of automobile stock
