FOREST PLAY IMPORTANT
 PART IN FLOOD CONTROL

Forests are not onl van important factor in regulating stream flow, but also aid in modifying climate and the character of the soil, tending toward the improvement of the water-stor- age capacity of any watershed, ac- eording to Raphael Zon, director of the Lake States Forest Experiment Station.
 The part that forests play in the regulation of stream flow has been clearly brought out by scientific in- vestigation over a great many years ana in many parts of the world, says Director Zorn, and these conclusions of the relationship of forests and floods are of particular interest just now when ways and means of pre- venting floods and regulating flood waters are being given wide consider ation. Mir. Zon states:
 "A national policy which, though considering the direct. value of forests as source of timber, fails to take full account also of their influence upon erosion, the flow of streams, and climate, may easily endanger the well fare of the whole people,
 The tendency of the forest is to equalize the flow throughout the year of all streams having their origin in tree-covered mountain regions, thru the combined efforts of the forests upon air and soil temperature, rela- tive humidity, effective precipitation, evaporation, wind, physical character of the soil, and run-eff of water, which in turn control stream flow. A comparison of many streams having forests and non-forested watersheds supports the conclusions reached by the study of contributing factors.
 Experiments show the effect of for est cover to be most beneficial on steep slopes, at the higher elevations. and on nenporous soils. The forest breaks the force of storms, absorbs some of the water, permits still more water to seep down into the soil where it is gradually released to feed the springs and larger streams. The maintenance of a forest cover is shown to be the cheapest and the best way of preventing erosion by it's ten. dency to bind the soil in place.
 Forest and Flood Prevention.
 The year 1927 brought two major disasters that have thrown into bold relief the need for national foresight in dealing with the perennial menace of floods. the Mississippi Valley and in \ England raging waters took a huge toil of lives and property. In dealing with the problem of pre- venting a recurrence of such disas- ters, 1t is essential, says Ward Shep- ard, forest inspector of the Forest Service, that every factor which con- tibutes to floods be adequately taken into account. He adds:

FANS TO LEARN
JUST HOW GOOD
LOMELLI FIGHTS

Fight fans are expected to jam
the Arena tomorrow night to find
out just how good this Lomclli per.
son is in the art of throwing
punches. LomcIli aroused consider,
able interest in the valley two
weeks ago when he met the speedy
Tony Escalante and gave the Calex.
leo scrappcr a stiff 10 rounds of
action. Fans are anxious to know
whether or not Marccllini Lomelli
of Pasadena, for that is his fighting
name, can keep up the style of
fistics he showed them two weeks
ago.
The majority of those present
were of the opinion that Lomelli
should have been awarded the YER
dict in, the clash, one of the best
that has ever been wagcd on the
local canvas.
In the Friday night engagement
Lomelli will match punches with
Dick McDaniels of Los Angeles.
While McDaniels is a rather new
name to valley fistic followers and
new face in this part of the state
he needs no introduction in the San
Francisco district. lie has fought
many battles in the bay territory
and is rated as top notcher.
McDaniels in two starts since
making headquarters at Los Angeles
has won just twice. In both trips
to the battlefront he proved far
too much for his opposition and
showed Los Angeles fans how to
throw mitts thick and fast.
While Lomclli is not of the ag-
Gressivc type he is a good mixer and
once started he hits we'll with both
hands. lie proved this beyond ques,
tion in his scrap with Escalante.
In addition to the main go Rich,
mond has booked three fast battles
which should provide plenty of OK
citemcnt. Homer Gaines will meet
Tom Cleary of Los Angeles in the
semi final Bobby Payne of Los AM
geles battles Lucia Oyala of Ocean
Park in the six round special and
Monte Hill clashes with Ben Solo
mon in the opener.
