drawn by our state entomologist,
J. NJ. Del Curto. who has given
years Of study to the subject and
TO meeting the difficult problems
constantly arising in quarantine
matters:
The present emergency involv-
ing a scarcity of citrus fruit makes
1t imperative that the commission
err of agriculture take steps TO al
leviate the present situation with
as little risk as possible. The inn
portation OF citrus fruit under
strict regulatory measures into the
northern part Of the state during
the emergency would alleviate the
present economic condition with as
little risk as possible as by
concentration Of inspection forces
the state is in a position TO main
tain the control necessary for the
enforcement OF this proclamation
for the period specified"

DIsCLAIMs RESPONSIBILITY

Prior to the Incorporation of Noun
tain Lake Park, much propaganda
was spread as to the dire things that
would happen under municipal form
of government, one statement being
that excursions of all descriptions,
dance platforms and other undesirable
features would come, which would
greatly mar the sacredness of the
place.
While the Park is now incorporated,
officers to manage it's affairs will not
be elected until August II, so that
no criticism should be directed to the
incorporators for the excursion and
dance platform that are booked for
the Park on August 8. ID

School of this city to a standStill
for three quarters in the: game
here last night, but the fourth
quarter was another story.
The locals unleashed a power
full attack to sweep through for
three touchdowns and the old

Quarterback Little featured this
late attack. 1t came when Little
intercepted a pass.
Consistent plunges at the line
counted the other two touch
downs. Emerson opened the Scor.
ing in the second period by
taking the lead when line plunges
by Whalen n. Raum accounted
for touchdown, the latter going
over. The Elves tied l. up sew

real battle until the ultimate

MAT BOUT

Matros Kirilenko, husky Rus
sian, and Rudy Dusek will en-.
deavor to settle their wrestling
differences at the Washington
Auditorium tomorrow night. Their
match will be the number one
bout on an attractive card ar
ranged by Promoter Joe Turner.
The pair toiled to a 30-minute
draw a week ago, and many of
the fans soured on Dusek for two
reasons. First, they thought that
Dusek should easily defeat Kiri-
lenko. and secondly they didn't
like Dusek's unfair methods when
the Russian was getting the up
per hand.
1t will be recalled that when
Dusek first came here, he was
exceedingly rough on his Op.
pOnentS and those tactics made
him hated by the fans.
The Nebraska wildcat" had
practically won over the support
of the local fans, and he was
their heavy favorite in matches
with Londos and Steele. Now, he
will have to work his way Lack
into their good graces again and
most of the fans will be pulling
for Kirilenko tomorrow night.
The semifinal will bring to-
gether Pat O'Shocker and Steve
Zenoski, who could easily substi-
tute for some movie star, zenoski
is one of the most handsome of
the wrestlers. Other matches will
involve Don De Laun and Andy
