GROWERS
PLAN TO OPPOSE
TRUCKING BILL

Officials of the chamber of com
meree are much concerned over Il
bill offered in the state Legislature
by Senator Ralph Swing, of San
Bernardino, known as senate bill
No. $50, which seeks to regulate and
place under the jurisdiction of the
railroad commission the trucking
of products. Secretary Robert Hays
has exchanged numerous kilograms
in the past few days with Assem-
blyman NJ. d. Witter, State Senator
Swing, and j. j. Duel, of the law
and utilities department of the Cali
fornia Farm Bureau Federation.
The larger truck companies have
sought on numerous occasions to
have the operations of the indie
pendent haulers of farm produce
placed ander the control of tie
railroad commission, and tariff rates
established. The growers of canta'
loupes arAl lettuce in Imperial Nal'
ley have always fought vigorously
such move, which must ultimately
result in higher truck rates. Little
publicity w:ss given the present bill,
and even tle local farm bureau Of
ficials were unaware of its refCt'
ence to committee until Informed
by members Of the chamber of con-
merce staff.
As a result of much opposition
the bill has lHen hastily amended
and some of it's supporters contend
that in its present form it will not
affect the grower of Imperial Val
lev crops. The proponents of the

NEARING CAPACITY
Arrival of La Toilette Statue
Revives Study of
Problem.

Arrival Of the statue of the late SEN
ator Robert M. La Toilette of Wiscon-
sin in Statuary Hall has served to re-
mind officials at the Capitol once more
that the capacity of the Hall of Fame
rapidly is being reached. II has re-
vived discussion OF what other pro-
vision might be made for the statuary.
The La Toilette statue which will be
unveiled April 25, will bring the total
in Statuary Hall TO 81. Under law
passed many years ago each State is
entitled to place two statues there.
which means that ultimately there will
be 96. Four new statues have been I'M
yelled in the past Is months and Off
Gals have knowledge of 9 or 10 others
likely to be received in the next few
years. Not many more can be placed in
the present hall.
crypt of the Capitol might be renovated
and converted into statuary hall. An
other proposal has been that additional
statues be placed in the areas adjoin-
ing Statuary Hall, but this would be in
the nature of makeshift arrangement
and hardly would accommodate the
maximum of 80 statues that could be
installed in the future. Another pos
Sibility would be a separate hall of fame
building
The La Toilette statue is of marble
and was done in Paris by 10 Davidson,
an American sculptor. 1t shows Fight

When you attend a basket ball
game and one of the teams begins
ringing up baskets you will get more
of a kick out of it If you will delve
into the cause by bit of personal
scouting than you will If the winning
team happens to be the one you
support. Studying a contest from
this angle adds tremendously to ones
interest in sport. Any one can do
1t If he watches closely the moves
of the players on attack. You know
pretty much what the defense is
doing. The point of the game is to
see how the offenSe overcomeS the
defenSe-outwits it. in other words.
In preceding articles two Illinois
plays that started exactly alike with
different breaks for scoring were

Guard No. 4 trails the two for
wards, Nos. and 3, and the center,
No. 2, up the floor, dribbling be-
hind them. Lindsay, No. 2, at the
foul line, makes a break to his left
as is his wont on his spinner play,
just as No. 4 shoots. No. 2 goes
b by his opponent at top speed straight
for the basket, with Nos. l and 3
driving for it from either side. Thus,
if No. As long shot misses they are
in for the rebound and close up
shot. Next-The Minnesota attack.
