EBRICHT WINS
TWO POINTS IN
GOVERNORS ROW

SAN FRANCISCO. Feb. %. U.p)
Two formal opinions sustaining
DR.. George Ebright, head of the
state board of health. in his dis
agreements with Governor Rolph
were handed down today by At
torney General U. S. Webb.
First, Webb formally approved
his own previous informal ruling
that Dr. Ebright could not be re-
moved from his position by Cover
nor Rolph, an action attempted by
the governor when DR.. Ebright re-
fused to accept DR.. George Sabichi
of Bakersfield as a member of his
board
Webb held that since DR.. Ebright's
appointment, made by former Gov
ernor c. c. Young, ran until July
1884 that Governor Rolph had no
power to remove him.
In a second opinion, Webb ruled
that DR.. Sabichi could not be ap-
pointed assistant to DR.. Giles Por-
ter, Los Angeles. new director of
the department of public health,
unless his appointment was ap-
proved by Dr. Ebright.
Dr.. Porter had asked an opinion
on this, the plan having been to
place DR.. Sabichi in the position
regardless of Dr.. Ebright's desire.

LOCAL LEADERS URGE SUPPORT
FOR BOY SCOUT FINANCE WEEK

Here s what some of the local
folks think about Boy Scout Finance
Week and the need for the Boy
Scout organization in Imperial and
Yuma valleys:
Dave Roberts - Someone has
said, the boy is father to the man.
How then can We expect manhood
to have higher standards of moral
ity. courage. character. with each
succeeding generation unless we see
to it that the boy is coached con-
tinually and Interestingly in those
qualities which build character and
manliness? The Boy Scout organi-
cation is thus far our best achieve
ment in that direction. I can think
of no element in our civic life that
is more meritorious of wholehearted
support
Chas. Pitzer--H you haven t
happened to read the Boy Scout
oath. you should do SO. Then read
the Boy Scout law Then talk with
some of our boys who are members
of the Boy Scouts. Then check up
in your neighborhood on the num-
Der Of boys who are not members
but who are eligible. After that
you won t need urging to give your
share toward the annual budget
that is now being raised.'
NJ. o. King--''I have just learned
that the Imperial and Yuma val
leyS average about one boy in 10
who is eligible to be Scout and
who is one. also learn that the
average in Southwestern states Is
one out of five. Let s take a hand
in bringing up our average. but first
let IS help raise the funds to do the
work already under way, Where
is there a section of the United
States that needs Scouting more
than in this border territory?'
Ross T. HickcoX-"I took mil
lions of dollars and real manhood
TO convert the Colorado desert into
Imperial and Yuma valleys. But
the end certainly justifies the means
1t will take some very genuine
thought and energy to create the
proper training for our boys, but,
with that environment and train
ing in manly ideals, the end most
certainly will repay us for the ef-
fort. Our contribution to the Boy
Scout budget should be an orderly
annual occurrence on which we plan
just as we plan on paying our gro

Measles Cases
Numerous Here

A bulletin issued today by the
county health officer. shows that
Ell Centro leads in the number OF
communicable diseases reported TO
the health department during the
past week. with % cases Of measles
here and two of chickenpox. BraW-
ley is second with five cases OF
measles and five of chickenpox.
A part of the report, dealing with
rabies. is as follows:
we wish again TO call attention
to the propert treatment of all
dog bites and bites of other ami
mails. After cleaning the wound all
such bites should be Immediately
cauterized with fuming nitric acid
by the family physician. This is
the standard approved treatment
throughout the world.
Animals suspected Of having
rabies should not be destroyed, but
placed under the observation of a
veterinarian In all such instances
the health department should also
be notified. II death occurs a Ia
boratory examination of the ami
mails brain can be made in order
TO determine the presence of rabies.

PROPER TURNS
EXPLAINED BY
LOCAL OFFICER

To turn or not to turn-and how
to turn when it is necessary?
Such is the question put by the
author of letter to the Press. seek
ing information on the proper pro-
cedure when a motoriSt desires to
make left hand turn, with a "but-
TOM in the middle OF the street.
What the gentleman wanted TO
know. in particular, was whether
one should turn going to the lett
of the button. cutting across, or 60
around it. making complete half
turn to start down a side street
Chief of Police Frank P. McCas-
lin was uncertain. Other officers
were also uncertain. No one in the
Press office knew of the proper turn
TO be made, although all drive cars.
Finally Traffic Officer Frank
Smyer was consulted, and contended
that the button should be to the lett
of the car making the turn. TO
prove the contention he produced a
book of rules. in which the follow
ing passage is contained, in section
l29 of the Motor Vehicle Act:
DRIVERS of vehicles in turning at
shall do so as follows:
The operator of a vehicle intending
to turn to the left shall approach
the point of turning in the traffic
lane to the right of and next to the
center of the roadway. and, unless
otherwise directed by turning signs
shall pass TO the right of the center
of the intersection before turning
A provision in the act provides
that a city council, or the board OF
may pass another rule
for turning. Since the Ell Centro
city council has never taken action
on this matter the state law stands
good in El Centre.
1t is the contention of Traffic OF
ficer Smyer that, If the motorist
does not interfere with traffic by
going to the left Of the button such
a move is permissible in local traf-
fic. No FL Centre motorist has ever
been bothered for making such a
turn.
U turn signs established at the
intersections in Ell Centro
are only temporary, said Smyer.
He went on to ask that motorists
obey the U turn signs established
On each of the four corners of the
busy intersections on Main street,
and warned that offenders will be
taken before the city court TOR pun
shment.
The signs set up in the center OF
he intersections will be discontinued
n a short time.

SCOUT LEADERS
CONFIDENT OF
LOCAL SUCCESS

Expectation that the full budget
of the Imperial-Yuma area OF Boy
Scouts will be raised not later than
a week from today, is voiced by En-
ME Sanders. chairman of the dis
trict committee, following a special
committee meeting yesterday in
which details of the campaign were
worked out.
Beginning on Monday We will IN
augurate Boy Scout Finance Week
in the Imperial and Yuma valleys, -
Sanders declared. Every commu-
nifty will take care of its own quota
during the week under the direction
of local finance chairmen.
The quotas assigned to each
community are certainly not large
in comparison to the Scout work
they will pay for. believe that this
Boy Scout work in these two val
leys is in the first rank Of important
civic welfare projects. I am con-
vinced that our people realize this
and that they will give very ac-
tive support to Finance Week.
The budget to be raised in the two
valleys TO cover Boy Scout activities
for the current year is set at s7400.
substantially less than the budget
of last year. El Centro is to pro-
vide $4,000 of the total; Brawley,
$500; Calexico, $3.50: Yuma. $1,000;
Imperial, $3.50; Holtville, s4o0; Cali
patria. $500. and Westmorland $3.50
Throughout the coming week those
in charge of raising the budget plan
to reach everyone possible within
their particular territories. :" How
ever Sanders stated, ave feel
that hundreds of residents will not
wait for a call from workers, but
will mail in checks TO Boy Scout
headquarters in the county court
house,
NJ o. King is the chairman OF the
FL Centro committee. He has as
signed definite beats for his
aides. and states he has complete
ly zoned Ell Centro. ~ am count
ing on FL Centre people to go ovei
the top first, thereby setting pace
for the other communities to fol'
low" King said. He added thai
the local papers will be informed
of each days progress during the
week so that the people will know

DISCHARGED MAN
EVENS SCORE BY
SHOOTING BOSS

PORTLAND, Ore, Feb. 2S. (U.p)-
A discharged millwright sought re-
venge today by shooting and killing
John w. Bevis. superintendent OF
the -Poulson Lumber COM
pany. and critically wounding AS
sistant Superintendent George Mar
tin.
The disgruntled employee, Albert
Gilbert. was captured by employees
after he had gone to the mill office
with the avowed intention, accord
ing to police. of shooting George w.
Thatcher. president OF the inman-
Poulson Lumber company. : >,
Martin probably saved the life OF
Thatcher when he heard the assall-
ant say he was going to shoot the
president of the company.
Martin tackled Gilbert but the
latter turned the revolver on him
and a bullet penetrated Martin S
abdomen. Gilbert endeavored TO
fire again but workmen overpower-
ed him. He was disarmed and held
for police.
A dagger with a long blade was
found in a leather holster that was
strapped under Glibert's left arm.
The workman refused to talk and
refused to give police his name.
The noise of the shooting appar-
entity had been muffled by the roar
of mill machinery and workmen were
not aware of Bevis' death until Gil
bert approached Roy G. Bevis, mill
wright and son of the slain man.
"You had better go in and look
at your father Gilbert told young
Bevis as he left the superintendent IS
office. Bevis hastened in, saw his
slain father and spread the alarm,
but not in time to prevent the
shooting of Martin.
