BEYSCHLAC BACK
FROM MEETING
OF DATE MEN

Frank Beyschlag, assistant farm
advisor, attended Il date meeting
held at the government oate gar
den at Indio yesterday, and reports
an interesting discussion On the
problem of date irrigation.
S. c. Mason of the date palm
garden talked on the growth of
date palms; \. J. Shamblin, on the
root growth of palms, making the
statement that under good condl-
tions the roots 60 more than 20
feet in depth; Gordon Surr of the
citrus experiment station at River
side, on how moisture occrrs in
soils and how plants make Use of
it; and DIR. S. D. Bachelor, head of
orchard management investigation
of the citrus experiment station, on
the measurement of water.
Dr. Bachelor stated that there
are three essentials for successful
irrigation: the first is to know the
condition of soil moisture, the
amount of water present in the root
lHt SttOHu. W hlON ~
much water is applied at each ir-
the third, to know where
that water goes.
Various date gardens were visit
ed and it was learned that good
trees use large amounts of water
and that the sickly do not. The
growers decided to hold the water
off the sickly trees in order that
the soil might dry out completely
before the next irrigation.
Beyschlag stated that he was
very favorablv impressed with the
date orchards which are in stage
of high development, the Swami
gardens being the only ones of any
size up to that standard in Impe-
lial county.
At the Swami ranch they have
found that by planting good off
shoots the expenses for the year
will be paid by the end of the fourth
year. Proper methods of fertiliza-
tion and thinning of the fruit are
used by these growers, who have
had a wide and successful expert
ence in the growing of dates.

JUNIOR CLASS
MEETS SUCCESS
WITH 'PENROD'

Penrod and his gang of unrelent-
ing detecetiffs kept their audi
ence in laughter during the entire
performance of Booth Tarkington's
"Penrod.' the 1ur;c- class play,
which was presented in the high
school auditorium last night.
The plot, which evolves around
the accidental capture of a thief by
Penrod is one that holds the inter.

well done characterizations make
" Penrod - the most interesting and
entertaining play ever staged at
Central.
Interesting lighting effects were
used and darkness fell on the scene
in all its stages of twilight and n
very real thunder storm, accom-
panied by lightning, made a proper
and sinister setting for the villain s
movements.
The part of Penrod. the boy head
of the detecetiff" force, was eX-
eeptionally well portrayed by Frank
Gallaher and the audience was
forced to sympathize even while
laughing at the actions of him and
his pal, Sam Williams, realistically
portrayed by Jim Cass. Poor little

municate his news to "the chief
provoked the mirth of the audience
and Herman held it. These parts
were very well done by George Dyer
