Grants Divorce
To Defendant

Hosea c. Cline was granted an
interlocutory decree of divorce from
Daisy F.. Cline in an opinion by
Judge Charles c. Haines filed in
the county clerks office today.
Judge Haines heard the case when
he was sitting in superior court
here while Judge A. c. Finney was
in San Diego.
The divorce case was hotly con-
tested and involved property OF APP
proximately $1,000 value. Daisy
T. Cline first filed suit, but di-
vorce was granted Hosea Cline on
= cross complaint.
The Judgment was . distinct vic
tory for Cline, since Judge Haines
ruled that property valued q t
$l5.8l9 is his alone. and that Mrs.
Cline is entitled only TO a 5000
desert claim. She had sued for an
equal division OF what she classed
as community property.
In making his ruling Judge
Haines stated that from testimony
1t appeared that Mrs. Cline had
made life a burden for her hus-
band

possibility, he said, as some injuries
BATTLE all efforts to remove lasting
marks.
Banishment of public fear where
X-rays are concerned, due to its
continually expanding use as a
therapeutic agent, and proof OF its
scientific efficacy in pre-operative
treatment of wounds, is aiding ex-
perts in their work, according to a
paper offered by Doctors E. A.
Phole, G. Ritchie and C. S. Wright
The paper was submitted by DIR.
Hhole, who is professor OF radio
ology at the Service Memorial In
stitute at the University of Wiscon-
sin.
Earlier, DR.. Edwin C. Ernst, of st
Louis, told members of the Radio
logical Research institute, a branch
of the Pathological Society, that
Europe is far ahead of America in
the development of X-ray tubes.
AS a result research in diseases
such as cancer has been handi-
capped in the United States, DR.
Ernst said.
He pointed out that no progress
siVe changes in American tubes
have been made in the past seven
years and said that individuals have
feared to attempt developments be-
cause of patents held by commercial
companies.
DR.. Ernst explained that the IN
Gtitute, formed to take steps to enc
the lack of progress. had financial
ly aided research and that stronger
tubes were in the process OF being
designed in defiance of patents.
Continued progress in the science
of physics as well as in the treat
ment of cancer is equally dependent
upon more effective X-ray or
radium energy" he said.
The society does not approve OF
cancer cures, announced frequently
in recent years, but is interested IL

FENCING TITLES
 DECIDED AT MEET
Yale and Columbia Score First in Contests at New York

New York, April IS P) - Yale and Columbia have taken the first two titles at the Intercollegiate Fencing Association championships.
 With five successive victories, the Ellis dethroned the Army as epee ti- tle-holders while Columbia won aN five of its matches to capture the sabre crown for the third successive year. The Army was second in each division.
 Yale beat Princeton and NJ. I. T., 40, and Cornell, Ohio State and Army. S-1, while the Army defeated Princeton, Ohio State, Massachusetts Tech and Cornell, all by 3-1 scores.
 In the sabres Columbia beat New York University and Navy, 3-I, and tied with Dartmouth, Yale and Ar my. All these ties, however, under the Olympic scoring system, went as victories, since the Lions outscored each opponent in touches. The Army beat New York University, 3-1, and Navy, Dartmouth and Yale by 40 counts, as we'll as tying Columbia.
 Competition in the foils division began last night and Army was lead ing with three victories and no de- feats when a halt was called until today. Yale and Navy stood second with two and one; Harvard fourth with two and two; Cornell fifth with one and three. and Penn last with none and three. .@

COLLEGE ROWING
 SEASON ID OPEN
Columbia Favored to Win Race
 at Annapolis Tomorrow

New York, April IS -lP-The col, lege rowing campaign will be inaug- urated in the east tomorrow and gives promise of bringing into action a flock of speedy and well-matched crews.
 Columbia. whose mighty varsity array swept through the whitecaps to victory at Poughkeepsie last June, will be favored to defeat the Navy and Massachusetts Tech in the east ern opener on the Severn at An napolis, but by no such margin as last year.
 Meeting the same opponents one at time on the Harlem, the unde- feated Columbia crew of 1929 polish cd off the Navy by three lengths and swamped Massachusetts Tech by , 1-4 lengths in a mile and three quarters race.
 This year young Rich Glendon will be happy if his Columbia eight can win by length.
 The reason is not that Columbia is weak but that its opponents are considerably stronger than last year. A tp-off on NJ. I. T. is that Bill Otis, regular stroke oar last year, has been relegated to the junior varsity by Phil Cook, a sophomore who Coach Bill Haines declares is the best pace-setter ever seen at Tech.
 In weight and raw power neither Navy nor Tech will concede thing to Columbia. The New Workers ad- vantage, if any, comes from the coaching of Glendon and the victori- ous experience of last year when four of their number rowed in the all- conquering varsity and four in the junior eight, which did not lose d race until it reached Poughkeepsie. If the number of seasoned varsity veterans available means anything. l "Old Dick" Glendon's Navy crew and Rusty" Callow's University of Penn sylvania outfit may come into their own this season. Penn and the navy were third and fourth respectively at Poughkeepsie last year to the con- fusion of the critics and most of their men are back at their slides. Harvard and Princeton should be faster than last year and Yale may not find the Crimson oarsmen nearly as easy as the 1929 crew proved to be.
 Syracuse. building on it's champion freshman eight, and Cornell, winner of the junior varsity event on the Hudson. may be up with the leaders once again. Little is known of Wis consin except that Mike" Murphy always can be counted on to produce the goods.
 From over the western horizon comes the word that the Pacific coast entry this year presents a double -barreled threat with Wash ington and California both packing enough power to pull the bottom out of the Hudson.
