GOOD LICK

All the world loves lovers and the
lovers who hold today's spotlight, King
Boris of Bulgaria and Princess Giovanna
OF Italy, have the best wishes of millions
throughout the world.
While much OF the pomp and splendor
of royal weddings will be missing, be-
cause of the brides desires for a simple
ceremony, the ceremony will be colorful
and dignified enough to suit the most
royal-minded.
Kings and queens are more or less back
numbers as far as Americans are con-
cerned, but if the truth were known, most
of US have sneaking admiration for the
material glory of royalty. We show It in
our high sounding fraternal order titles
and robes and in the adulatiOn which we
accord Jack Dempsey, Babe Ruth or
a Bobby Jones.
We can sincerely wish Boris and Clio
wanna long and happy married life, free
from the trials and tribulations which
have beset so many OF royalty's numbers
in the past

NIGHT FOOTBALL SUCCESS
w r. COSTELLO

If any local resident harbors doubts on
the success Of night football, at least
from a practical standpoint. he can OBJ
tain fine argument from any one of sev-
eral thousand persons who witnessed the
first night football game at Central I'm
ion last night.
The game had all the appeal of day
time attractions without some of its
drawbacks. Playing or watching foot
ball in the daytime at this period Of the
year is uncomfortable for the spectator
and more than that for the players, be-
cause of the heat 1t was a pleasure to
watch last nights game, from physical
viewpoint, and the players moved as
though they felt better about it too.
Many fellow who likes his football
enjoyed local game last night for the
first time. Heretofore the daytime games
have been sparsely attended because of
the inability of many football enthusiasts
to leave their work
There are none of the attractions Of
daytime football that the night game does
not possess and there is every reason to
believe that future games this season will
be as well attended as was last nights
contest.
1t would be somewhat negligent to
write of last nights game without paying
a compliment to Coach Armstrong and
his Spartan eleven The one-sided score
against Holtville indicates that they had
little chance TO show their real mettle.
They played smart football all the way
and look good enough to make it hard for
any team in the valley.

month that the first dirigible trans-At-
lantic flight was attempted.
In October of 1910 Walter Wellman
took off at Atlantic City in the dirigible
balloon, hoping fondly chat he and his
crew would be able to fly to Europe.
His hope was cruelty dashed, as it hap
pened. A relatively short distance from
land the dirigible was forced down in the
ocean; and only the fact that the gondola
had been constructed as a detachable
lifeboat saved WelIman and his men from
meeting the fate that has befallen so
many transatlantic flyers since their
day. As it was, they managed to stay
afloat until steamer could pick them up.
Wellman,S comments after the event
are interesting. As this writer remembers
it, he said that dirigibles could never be
commercially useful. For sport, for eN-
ploration and for war, he believed, they
would be very serViceable; but ne dii not
see how anyone could hope to fly the At
lantic in them and make it 2 paying prop
osition.
a good many things have happened to
dirigibleS since that day, ana some of
WellmanS remarks sound rather quaint.
at this distance; but it is worth noting
that commercial transportation by dirigi-
bles is not with US yet, in spite Of all the
progress that has been made. There has
been enormous improvement, of course;
the dirigible he used had as much in COM
mon with a ship like the Graf Zeppelin
as Columbus flagship had with the Lev
latham; but great deal Of work is still
to be done.
The task Of perfecting the dirigible has
been costly, and the men who died in the
R-101 the other day number only a few
among the great many who have given
their lives to test out this form of trans
portation. Yet there is a fascination to
the idea of travelling by dirlgible that
keeps men from dropping it. In spite of
all handcaps, it seems safe to assume
that the experimentation will continue
until Welman's 20-year-old verdict IS
thoroughly confounded.

UNCLE S4N GUESSED WRONG

One can't guess correctly all the time,
whether the guessing be done about foot
ball games or revolutions and Uncle Sam
seems to have missed one in picking the
winner of the Brazilian revolt.
President Washington Luis, whose gov
ernment was given the good hopes, best
wishes and moral support of the United
States has been forced to resign. the op-
position is in the saddle, and the Brazil
revolution is over, making the fourth
South American republic to change its
government this year via the revolution
airy route.
Just how our diplomats at Washington
feel about it can be appreciated by any
one, for all Of Us have guessed wrong
more than once. The diplomats encOur-
aged an embargo against arms for the
revolutionists and got the government to
agree to sell munitions to the federal gov
ernment
Now that the revolutionists are in pow
er in Brazil, they may get somewhat
'snooty'' toward us, but it is not likely.
If they do it is up to our diplomats to
straiglten things out. That's what dip
lomats are for.
The successful leaders of the revolt
promise an orderly and substantial gov
ernment. 1t is to be hoped that they live
UP to their promises. Brazil is too large
and important in Southern American an(
world affairs to be without a stable gov
ernment.
1t is gratifying to know anyhow, that
the fighting is over, and perhaps All Is
