BRAWLEY FOLKS
SHOULD REMAIN
INDOORS SUNDAY

Captain Frank Oswalt, of the
state traffic department has thrown
bombshell into the peace and quiet
of valley police circles.
Captain Frank looked over an in
vitation from the Imperial Valley
Peace Officers Association, asking
that his department be represented
in target shoot to be staged at
Brawlcy at . o clock tomorrow after
noon, Then he took his boys out
in the woods and let them bang
away at some targets. But there
was only one hole in each target
when the boys returned They had
driven n nail in it to- hold it up
while they were shooting.
"Mmm,' said Frank, "Guess IN
have to do some shooting for this
gang myself
And word to this effect spread
like wildfire through the police
ranks. 1t was received with awe
for Frank is regarded as a sharp
shooter.
Many years ago this honor was
bestowed upon hlm. lie was In the
police business then as now and was
chasing an automobile, the machine
whirling around corner ahead of
him. About that time Frank spicd
bird sitting on telephone pole
ahead of him. Whipping out his
trusty revolver he took careful aim
and fired. The bullet hit the pave
ment several feet ahead, skidded
along and caroming off the curbing
sailed up the street after the speed
ing automobile. 1t lodged i'll the
rear tire of the ear and Frank made
the capture.
F"9nk never admitted shooting at
the bird but his brother Sterling let
us in on the secret
So CAPTAIN Frank has retired on
his laurel until now. His announce
ment that he will enter the shoot
tomorrow at Brawley is therefore
received with chagrin by the other
contestants for non are wise to the
secret of Frank s great billiard shot.
- AS long as there are no birds
around the targets are safe Ster-
ling declared this morning.
El Centre police, the sheriff s
squad, Ca!exico and Frank s traffic
boys will invade Brawley, the home
OF the present champions, to engage
