The rattle OF basketballs against
the backboardS has increased to a
steady drumming. The boys have
had their fingers crossed long
enough, and the time has arrived

Amateur Basketball barge, compos-
ed OF sixteen clubs, will shove off
into deep water Tuesday evening.
The high school basketeers will get
into action IN the near future. j. w.
tRed) Irvine OF the Brownsville pub
lie school system has called a meet
ing OF all schools to participate IN
the Cameron county tournament.
The session will be held at the San
Benito high school 8 p. m. Monday.
Questions OF scheduling will pro-
baby be the most important brought
up at San Benito. These meetings
are a great help TO coaches. II would
take weeks OF correspondence TO ac-
complish what will be done at San
Benito tonight. Red Irvine was
county athletic director last year.
and he will likely serve in the cap
acity this season. Red" makes q
good head. He not only knows at
hletics. but is well liked generally.
OF course, Irvine is a rabbid Eagle
fan, but when necessary, puts his
head before his heart.
Speaking Of coaches. Dutch
Rektorik came to the front in Val
ley circles with a bang in his first
year as mentor Of the Harrington
Cardinals. His prospects are even
brighter for next year. Dutch devel-
oped a Valley championship Club ar
III addition made a good showing
with the Valley-All stars against
the Cisco Loboes. Anyone looking
for the Valley. or Dist. No. 8 "A
pennant will have to keep their op-
tics focused on Dutch's outfit this
coming season. The Cards have q
powerful forward wall and will add
TO their backfield punch next sea-
son. Ray Murray. perhaps the best
in this section Will be with the Cards
again.
The defending school quint champs
Of the Valley are the McAllen boys
and the Pharr-San Juan-Alamo
girls. McAllen went Up several
notches before being eliminated
from the state race. If anyone were
to ask you who will win the girls
title this season, snap right back
at them "Pharr-San Juan-Alamo."
Chances are YOU would be correct.
These girls have won the Valley
championship for the last five
years and their prospects aren't so
dim this year.
The ideal condition for making
school awards would be for every
boy who sticks with the squad
throughout the season to get a let
ter. Unfortunately, this is not done
here or anywhere else. If you were
10 work hard on q squad all year.
You would feel rather bad II yotl

SITE STUDIED

ROCKVILLE, Md, Aug. 15.--
Representatives of the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad, the State
Roads Commission and the county
spent considerable time recently
looking over the ground with the
view to decide upon the location
of the new bridge to be built
over the tracks here so as to
eliminate the dangerous grade
crossing.
The bridge, it has been decided,
will be about where the present
wooden overhead structure stands
and the approach from the Rock
vile Pike on the west side win be
by way Of New Street. The ap-
proach from the Rockville Nor
beck Pike, on the east side, was
selected, but not disclosed.
It was stated that the State
Roads Commission, which will
have charge Of the work, plans
to begin operations within the
near future: and that the elimina-
ton of the dangerous Rockville
crossing will follow the doing
away of the even more dangerous
grade crossings at Gaithersburg
and Kensington.

DRY LAW CONDEMNED

Hillsborough County Democrats
Favor Solution of Problem by
Individual States.
Rx the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
TAMPA, Fla, March 15.-Maj. F. L.
D. Carr, county Democratic leader, to-
day said that the Democratic Club Of
Hillsborough County last night had
voted to favor repeal of the eighteenth
amendment to the Federal Constitu-
ton, leaving the prohibition question
to the various states for solution.
L. w Crompton. president of the
club. who was on the floor. and George
F. Corrigan in the chair gave out this
copy of the liquor resolution which they
said was adopted unanimously:
After 10 years of ineffective Fed
eral attempt to enforce the eighteenth
amendment and the Volstead act, we
are convinced that the manufacture
sale and distribution of Intoxicating
LIQUORS should be left to the several
States, under their police power. and
that the Federal laws should be re-
stricted to the importation into and
transportation between the several
States. We condemn the policy of re-
ducing the Federal courts to police
courts and believe the prestige and dig
nifty of such courts should be restored
by abdicating Federal prohibition en-
forcement, except as it involves inter
state commerce and imports from
abroad"

There Are Many
Ways To Conserve

Americans are said to be very
wasteful. and indeed many a pop
ulace could live in comfort on what
we throw away; but the situation
would be much worse if we were
not also very saving people. Prob
ably a billion dollars worth Of
waste material is recaptured every
year in this country, chiefly waste
metal of different kinds, including
half a million tons of copper, half
billion dollars worth of iron and
steel, and large. amounts of gold
and silver.
Let us honor the junk man, and
let us all become of his trade. Saw
| ing a dollar is as useful as earning
dollar. And saving soul is the
most glorious salvage imaginable.
| Spiritual economy includes the
economy of time and health, and
especially the utilizing of influence

owe it to God that the lives He
gives us shall be made to count for
as much as possible. To waste our

Through all the storm and stress
of life George White has demon
strated that he can get along witlt
men, One of the prime reasons is
that he keeps his word. He has
never violated his word-no matter
what the temptation. regardless of
cost or sacrifice. Like most men Of
action he is not a speechmaker
Like most men who give value to
their words he does not use too
many of them. To those who want
to indulge in fiowery speeches and
fiorid flights of fancy he grants that
pleasure. For himself, he listens,
and holds his tongue And if actions
speak louder than words, then in
deed is he eloquent.
