CaleXico Alumni
Defeats BraWley

That Brawley's football just can't
seem to get over the winning hump
was demonstrated again last night
when the Calexico alumni team in
a benefit game on the Brawley gri-
diron backed Brawley alumni into
a corner and pounded them down
to 20 to defeat.
It's high school suffering two los
seS to El Centro, the alumni squad
from the north end hoped at least
to prove superiority over Calexico
in the Peace Officers Association
insurance fund benefit, but failed
when the strong CaleXicans tore the
Brawley line to shreds with fierce
line plunges and an all-around su-
perior brand of gridiron warfare.
The game was fast throughout,
with Brawley eternally threatening
to score but failing except once to
make good the threat. The heavier
and more experienced Calexico out
fit showed a greater grasp of foot
ball fundamentals, and put them
to the best use.

College Paper
Flays Football

NEW YORK, Nov. II. U.P)-An-
other attack on college football.
this one by Spectator, undergrad
uate daily at Columbia University
appears to have "flivvered."
University authorities and the
public refuse to become excited over
the "deplorable condition" pictured
by the college paper.
University authorities were in
clined to regard the attack as an
attempt by undergraduate editors
to attract attention.
The anti-football editorial was
written by Editor in Chief Reed
Harris, senior classman, and
classified all college football as a
"semi-profeSsional racket operated
for the amusement of alumni and
public
The editorial advocated "honest
professionalism to replace furtiye
hypocrisy and suggested that
alumni pay " a good living wage
to every football man, openly and
not underhandedly." Haywood Broun
had urged such action some weeks
previously.

BOBBY PACEO
HANDS BEATING
TO TOD MORGAN

LOS ANGELES, Nov. II. UP)-
The veteran Tod Morgan of Seattle
once holder Of the worlds junior
lightweight title, appeared today to
have reached the end of his fistic
trail.
Bobby Pacho, the El Centro bat
tier who took the California light
weight crown from Morgan last
August, had the veteran IN such bac
shape at Olympic auditorium last
night that Referee Larry McGratr
stopped the uneven battle in the
seventh round to award Pacho a
technical knockout decision.
Morgan was game, but it was only
his instinct, courage and training
which prevented his collapse earlier
in the match. A steady tattoo on
his left eye had closed the optic
like a Scots purse before the third
round.
Bobby won six of the seven
rounds, with Tod taking the first.
Morgan weighed 1876 pounds and
Pacho 1861. Bobbys title was not
at stake.
Frank Simms, 1876, the Cleveland
clipper, finished Wally Hunt, 208,
the Texas Terror" by courtesy on
ly, in exactly l minute 56 seconds.
Hunt was down three times before
the referee was able to get a count
started.

Trojans Make
Good Mileage

LOS ANGELES, Nov. Il. U.P)-
The vaunted Notre Dame attack
which has rolled up one and one
quarter miles of scrimmage against
six opponents this year, is still
short of the power drives of Uni
Versity of Southern California by
quarter mile.
The Irish have compiled an aver
age of 335 yards per game against
opponents, while the TrojanS,
against six Pacific coast teams,
none of which could be regarded as
setups, nave averaged 375 yards
per game.
Oregon, which proved to b e
the "cinch" of Southern CALIFORNIA; S
season, succumbing to a tune of SO
to 0, two weeks later shattered
the hopes of New York University
for an undefeated season.
Southern California will use only
its second and third strings against
Montana Saturday to make the
game more interesting.

CLTY'S BUILDING
RECORD IS CAUSE
FOR MUCH PRIDE

FL Centre is again well up in the
list received monthly oy the Ell Gen.
tro Chamber Of Commerce, show
ing the building permits of about 65
cities of Southern California. This
month, according to Robert Hays,
manager of the chamber, Ell Centric
is 25th on the list, with building
permits for the month of October
surprising those of such cities as
Huntington Park, Bakersfield, San
Bernardino Anaheim, Tulare, Red
lands and Ontario. This city also
holds the same position as regards
building permits for the first 10
months of the present year, and
again surpasSes such cities as Ana
helm, Redlands and Ontario.
1t is interesting to note that, while
Ell Centro building permits are low
er for October, 1881, than for Octo-
Der, 1890, all the cities on the list
show the came decline with the eX-
ception of about a dozen, while but
eight cities show an increase for
the first 10 months of this year
over the same period of last year.
while FL Centro building permits
so far this year are slightly below
those of last year." states Hays
they are still above those Of any
other year excepting 1926, when the
Hotel Barbara Worth annex was
built and the fact that they have
dropped, or will have dropped at
the end of the year but about 20
per cent is very encouraging when
| it is noted that many cities in
Southern California have shown a
decline of so per cent or more in
their building permits this year over
last.
Building permits are a good
gauge of a city's prosperity and
growth" continued Hays. The fact
that El Centro building permits are
equal or above those of cities sew
eral times its size, and have been
for the past three years, indicates
activity and growth, rather than a
boom, which is always followed by
a depression. The outlook for 1882
is promising for building activity
and directors of this organization
feel that building permits will con-
tinue to be around or above $780,
600 for there is no question but that
the city is growing and growing
soundly and permanently"

DAVID SHOULD
Give GORILLA
LOTS OF FIGHT

Boys and girls who have beer
lonesome for the sound of the leath-
er pushers, will have their lone
someness driven away Friday night
when the lid is pried off Imperial
Valley boxing for the winter.
A fine sounding card has been
arranged by Matchmaker Harry
Woodbury. who is not in the least
disturbed by the fact that the club
is opening the season on Friday
the 18th"
In conversation with several To-
cal fans, who could not see" Young
David as a fit opponent for San
tiago zorrilla when the bout was
first announced, we are now in
formed that the match looks bet
ter the more one thinks of it. Zor-
rilla has a weakness, and it is down
around the equatorial area, if you
know what we mean. He doesnt t
like body punches.
Body punching is just where Da-
vid shines and when the little Fill
pino hits, he hurts. Babe Adams,
Battling Sikh, Johnny Torres, Joe
Rivers and others can give eloquent
testimony on this, for David sent
them all kicking.
Granting that Zorrilla is more eX-
.perienced, more clever and q better
ring general, David's punching abil-
ity and his aggressiVeness should
enable him to give zorrilla O tough
battle. Few would want to pick
David to win, but those who have
seen him fight know that if he can
hit Zorrilla he can hurt him.
The semi-final looks to be as good
as anyone would want, with Tony
Chavez and Babe Colima mixing it
up. Babe has fought a number of
times in the local ring and is known
to he good. Chavez, in two or three
fights here last spring, showed that
he is a clever youngster who is hard
to hit and he can do a bit of punch
ing on top of that.
Johnny Cavos, former Central
Union football star, is in the spe-
Cldl Sl)OJ WIFI JUG DS LtOu DIS HIS
opponent. Johnny has only fought
a couple Of times here but has
knocked out his man each time and
what he lacks in experience he more
than makes up in a hefty wallop
De Leon is a cagey veteran who still
can do plenty OF damage in the
ring.
Carl Hagar, who has not been seen
here in over a year, will open the
show against Ishmael Garcia. Ha-
gar, with a wallop like dynamite, is
unfortunately the owner Of a tender
jaw and if ne can manage to keep
that out of the way of Garcia's
mittS. he ought to be able to bend
the Mexican boy in two.
The arena will be covered and all
ready for the winter season, accord
ing to Woodbury., and the ladies will
be admitted without charge for the
opening card, for which the usual
low prices in vogue last year will
prevail.

FOUR NORTHWEST
TEAMS TO MEET
UPON GRIDIRON
BY ALANSON w. EDWARDS
UNITED Press Staff Correspondent

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. II. U.P)
"A week of sectional warfare with
four famous Pacific northwest ri
valS locked in annual combat makes
up the current football program in
the far west.
With the Big Three Of Califor-
MIA meeting lesser opponents ir
preparation for strenuous games
the following week, the coast foot
ball magnet attracted attention to
Oregon Oregon State at Eugene and
Washington Washington State at
Seattle.
The celebration Of Armistice Day
staged the gridiron week earlier
than usual. The Gaels Of ST.
Mary's victims of an upset by the
Olympic club last Sunday after a
winning streak OF - games, were
pitted against U. C. L. A. in Los
Angeles. At the California Mem
orial stadium in Berkeley, the West
Coast Army and Navy squads met
in their annual tussle, preceded by
Military-Naval spectacle.
The outlook would seem dark for
Paul Schissler's Oregon Staters in
meeting crafty Doc" Spears men
of Oregon. The University squad,
victors over the strong New York
U. and Washington, have overcome
the bad taste left by a $50 defeat
at the hands of u. S. C. on the
other hand, the Staters have had
only ordinary success this season,
although the Trojans beat them by
a smaller score than Oregon.
The w a h ngton- Washington
State game probably will be more
even than comparative records of
the squads indicate. Washington
shot its bolt last week against Cali
fornia and failed. The Huskies
pointed for the Bears and the eff
fort may lead to a letdown. And
then again maybe it won't. The
Cougars, buoyed by a hairline vic
tory over their old rivals at Idaho,
may have just the punch necessary
to win. Their record this year, how
ever, is far from impressive, and
by all the accepted standard Wash
ington should win.
St. Mary's Fighting
In California, the Nevada wolf
pack comes to Palo Alto to try its
luck with Stanford, the Idaho Van
dals will invade Berkeley and u. S.
c. will entertain Montana at Los
Angeles. The visitors, at any rate,
should put up fight.
In the Los Angeles game today,
st. Mary'S will be out to make up
for the unhappy setback they re-
ceived Sunday, while U. c. L. A,
defeated in all conference games,
will fight for another upset. 1t will
be a close game, for the Bruins
have a better team than appear
anceS would credit them. Pop"
Warmers Cardinals can speak with
first hand knowledge about that.
The Army-Navy game today at
Berkeley finds both teams on a
fairly even basis. The battleship
men beat the Marines and the Mar
ines beat the Army, and thus Navy
should have an edge.

SPORTS PARADE
OFFERS VARIETY
IN T0DAY'S NEWS
By HENRY McLEMORE

| NEW YORK, Nov. II. U.P)-The
best way to win absolute obscurity,
except by operating a miniature
golf course, is to get job as a line
man on a football team, preferably
a job as a guard, center or tackle.
There on the line, flanked by
men who, from the stands at least,
look just like you do, and act just
like you do, no one is likely to call
your name, notice you, or throw
your name across the headlines of
the nations newspapers. Even if
you should thoughtlessly play the
| best game on the field, nine out
of 10 experts and 999 out of a 1000
spectators will be too busy watch
ing the backfield to pay you any
mind.
If you don't believe it, select 100
average football fans and ask them
! to name, in one minute, Is football
I players, other than members of
/ teams they see regularly. I'm con-
vinced the 100 would name Is or IA
backfield men, and maybe a couple
! of linemen.
This is very unfair to the line
men, those noble souls who allow
the backfield men to sweep out
into the open and gallop to fame,
and sometimes, fortune.
We got to thinking along these
lines after reading the accounts of
Georgia's victory over N. Y. U. and
Notre Danes whipping of Penn.
Now the best men on the field in
the Georgia-NeW York shindig were
couple of redheaded Southern
guards, Leathers and Maddox by
name. These babies, tough as a
steak slice of Gibraltar and mean
as bobcats, did everything right.
But you never would know it from
reading the papers And if the eX-
perts didn't see their work, you
can imagine how much attention
was paid it by spectators.
The best thing about Notre Dame S
| team this year, Marchmont Sch
wartz Notwithstanding, is its line
power. Yet how many Irish lines
men can you name offhand? How
many people know that Tommy
Yarr is captain of the team? And
that Tommy Yarr is as sweet a
center as you'd want, and that he
has been playing a whale of a
game despite a mess of injuries?
The only way Tommy can get any
publicity will be to make a bad pass
az a crucial time.

The Southbury
 Fatal Tragedy
Coroner John T. Monzani Is Still Looking Into
 the Case

The inability of Walter Wright of Southbury to recall details has prevented Coroner John T. Mon zani from reaching a decision and determining responsibility in the fatal automobile accident last Thursday. Wright was the driver of the machine which was struck by gasoline railway car on crossing near Southbury. His three companions, George Green, Cecelia Mortimer and her sister. Josephine Mortimer, were fatally injured. Wright is in the Danbury hospital. He suffered serious tn- juries and there is still a question of doubt concerning his recovery. Although several attempts have been made to question him, Wright cannot recall what happened. He also fails to remember what oc- cured previous to the accident. The medical authorities are of the opinion that his memory will im- prove with his physical condition.
 Thirteen witnesses have been examined by the coroner. They include the railroad crew and a number of passengers. The claim has been made that Wright, late in going to work, attempted to beat the train to the railroad cross- ing. It was also reported that his machine became stalled on the
 Coroner Monzanl intends to question Wright later on when doctors consider him improved.

Nature Gave Great AUX
No Method of Defense

The great aux or gare-f0wl was
the only bird in the northern hem
isphere that could not fly. In gen.
eral appearance 1t resembled the
penguin. 1t was about as large as
q goose, was black on its head and
back and white beneath. Its legs
were very far back 50 1t stood al
most upright, having. on land, the
appearance of sitting on Its tail. 1t
ranged from the Bay Of Biscay to
Greenland and was found In great
est numbers on certain rocky Is
lands near Iceland and Newfound-
land. It was helpless against enc
mics on land and was killed large
ly for the sake Of its feathers. The
last known example was killed In
1874. Its eggs are highly valued
by collectors, sometimes bringing
as high as $500. There are only
about seventy examples known.
The great aux was the biggest OF q

acting was so realistic it was not
difficult for one to follow the story
closely.
On being asked by the Herald
editor who was the outstanding
character and the outstanding
scene, he replied without hesita-
ton, "Judas Iscariot." He said the
man playing this important part
was one of splendid physic and I'M
usual acting ability. The strong
scene was when he is overcome by
remorse after he had attempted to
return the money following the be-
trayal of his Master, and the Jews
had refused to accept it. At this
particular juncture Judas has the
stage entirely to himself, and the
and interest was intense.
All of the leading characters were
actors Of unusual ability. DR.. Gill

ton in 1884.
