DAVID To Get
DIFFICULT TEST
IN LOCAL ARENA

just how good Young David. local
Filipino boxer is, will be decided
Friday night when he faces Frankie
Arregon, valley southpaw veteran,
in the main event at the Imperial
Valley Athletic club.
After q lay-off last week, which
caused the boxing card to be post
poned, David is reported to be in
good condition and ready to add
Arregon to his list Of victims.
Doing that little thing, however,
is a difficult job. Frankie, while he
is not the fighter of four or five
years ago, is still tough hombre
for anyone his weight to tackle. He
has been living on ranch for seve-
raj months past, getting back into
shape after long lay-off, and his
goal is a match with Bobby Pacho.
Before signing him up for this
scrap the club wishes TO find out
just what he can do.
In IA fights at the local arena,
David has scored Is kayoes and is
anxious TO put one past the unlucky
number. He is a real fighter and
has barrels of speed as well as
punch. He, too, wishes to get
chance at Pacho. There are many
fans who hold the opinion that he
would give the valley favorite busy
evening if they should ever meet.
Andy Armstrong, all decorated up
with. a 38-second knockout over his
last opponent, gets the semi-final
spot. with Bobby Ratcliff of San
Diego as his opponent.
Armstrong hardly got started in
his bout with Rafael Delea before
the latter was being counted out.
At Monroy, who has been turn
ing in some pleasing fights over in
San Diego. will take on Luis Reyes
of Brawley in the special spot.

BY LEO ii. PETERSON

NEW YORK. May S. U.H - Age,
that arch-enemy of all athletes, is
having hard time catching up
with old Clarence Mitchell.
Since the 42-year-old spitball
portsider came to the New York
Giants two years ago. after the st.
Louis Cardinals decided he was
through as major Lacquer. Mitch
ell has pitched the best ball of his
long career. His work during the
latter part of the 1880 season was
a big factor in the drive that land
cd the Giants in third place in the
final National league standings.
This season promises to be even
better than last when he won II
and lost three games.
Mitchell registered his fourth
triumph of 1881 yesterday when the
Giants defeated the Brooklyn Rob-
ins, to 3. The Robins got but six
hits off Mitchell and only one of
their runs were earned Adolph
Luque, starting his first game of
the season, was the victim of the
Giants early inning attacks.
Ed Brandt continued his sensa-
tional mound work when he let the
Philadelphia Phillies down with
three hits as the Boston Braves won
4 to 3. Errors aided the Braves in
their run scoring.
The Chicago Cubs, after three
straight defeats at the hands of st.
Louis, came to life and walloped the
Cincinnati Reds, 13 to l. Hack
Wilson. major league home run king
last year, drove out his second
homer of the season as Pat Malone
limited the Reds to six scattered
blows.
The other National league clubs,
Pittsburgh and st. Louis were not
scheduled.

Although defeated to l by the
st. Louis Browns, the Cleveland

in the American league. Stewart
Cleveland nine hits in scor-.
ing his third victory of 1881 while
the Browns got five off Hudlin.
The Chicago White Sox continued
their sloppy play in the field and
lost to the Detroit Tigers, to 3. The
White Sox made four errors, boost

Helen Wants To
Become Actress

HOLLYWOOD, Cal, May 5. tU.P)
Motion picture producers pondered
today the question of whether Mrs
Helen Wills Md dy, the little poker
face" of sportdom, could become a
dramatic actress in filmdom and
thus hold her amateur standing.
1t was explained that, unlike
Bobby Jones, Mrs. Moody does not
want TO make movie shorts illus
trating game technique. Jones is
now demonstrating golf strokes in
one-reel talking pictures.
Mrs. Moody, however, wants to
appear as a conventional actress in
regular dramatic roles. although she
is recognized as the country's great
est girl tennis player. She would
thereby retain her amateur stand
ing, it was pointed out, whereas if
she made tennis shorts she would
automatically be declared profes-
sional.
Two studios we're reported willing
to sign Mrs. Moody for one-reelers
similar TO the Jones series, but they
we're not certain, 1t was said, that
she could star In straight heroine

MILK SHOULD Be
ADDED TO WAFFLE
BATTER GRADUALLY
This Method Insures a Smooth,
Light, Lumpless Batter

Every cook knows that it is risky
to pour all the milk at once into the
-four when making waffles. In spite
of vigorous stirring the batter will
invariably contain Jumps.
Coffee roasted in bulk also in.
wolves risk. Even the most skilled
operator cannot prevent variation
IN the roast because the quantity
Is too large to handle. As result,
some of the coffee berries are over
done and some underdone. Such
variation in the roast causes varia-
ton in favor.
Realizing this, Hills Bros, in
San Francisco, perfected and pat
cnted a process that roasts every
coffee berry evenly. BY automatic
control, only a few pounds at a
time pass through the roasters in
which heat is also automatically
controlled. When the coffee finally
leaves the roasters, it is perfectly
uniform in color and roast and
gives a delicious flavor in the cup
that no other coffee can equal.
No matter when or where you
buy Hills Bros. Coffee, it is as
fresh and complete in its exclusive
favor and aroma as when it came
from the roasters. This is because
Hills Bros. Coffee is packed in
vacpunl-a process that takes air,
which destroys coffee favor, from
the can. The ordinary air-tight can
does not keep coffee fresh. Hills
Bros. Coffee is sold everywhere. Ask
for it by name and look for the Arab
