Thirty-six times each second. two

No other perishable product enjoys
such prestige. No other name that

to penetrate to the mind of the buy

Such widespread acceptance is
tribute TO the cumulative marketing
efficiency OF the California Fruit

power which last year enabled Ex-
change growers to dispose of 0,468
carloads OF citrus fruit at the highest
prices in history. 1t is the force which

ONE-LEGGED GOLFER
OFTEN BREAKS" 100

BY the Associated Press.
Though he has but one leg, Eddie
Gisburne. radio announcer at station
WEEP. Boston, has learned to play golf
well enough to break 100 regularly, a
score not reached by many physically
perfect buffers.
Gisburne lost his leg while serving
with American forces at Vera Cruz IN
1914.
In taking up golf he had to conquer
the perplexing problem Of acquiring a
swing. He now hits tee shot for 100
yards and can play iron and putt shots
as well as the average two-legged
golfer.
The curious part of Gisburne's game
is that he can play a full wood shot and
maintain his balance.
