did opportunity to go over :: next
Sunday by joining caravan which
will leave the FL Centre CHAMBER OF
Commerce at 9 o clock and, IL true
pioneer fashion. travel weSo to fol-
low the proposed route OF the new
highway which is destined to be-
come one Of the most travelsd ROADS
in Southern California.
The motor caravan, headed by H.
l. Bush, chairman of the highway
committee of the El Centro chamber.
will follow highway 80, Branching
off near Coyote Wells TO a point
close TO Dos Cabezos. and leading
there towards the west side OF Coy
ote Mountain. This is the southern
link Of the route recently selected
for the Imperial highway by tie
engineers making the preliminary
survey for the Imperial Highway as
sociation.
Bush states that the trip will be
a very attractive one as the desert
at this time is as its most beautiful
stage and that the wild flowers and
ocotillo will be blooming prcfuseiy.
He suggests further that those who
90 might well keep in mind the pos
sibility of picking out sites for cot
tages on the Imperial highway IN
the near future as the ground ira
versed will be from 1000 to 1900 feet
above sea level and those who Will
eventually build summer cottages
in this attractive scenic area Will
be within one hour of FL Centro By
automobile.
To the many persons who have
locked forward to the completion OF
the short route from Imperial VAL
ley 10 the Laguna Mountains TINS
trip will serve a double purpose, ac-
cording to Bush. in addition 10 get
ting an idea as to the route OF the
Imperial highway they will sec now
much closer the Laguna recreational
area viii be brought to this ccmrlu-
nifty in point of time by the building
Of the proposed highway, which
gives one easy access to CanebraKe
canyon. the key TO the short road
TO Laguna.
Bush states that each party will
take its own lunch and supply OF
water. with coffee for the individual
car PARTY if SO desired. The trip Will
not be a hard one but is difficult TO
make without leaders who are ia
nniliar with the road. Bush has
made several surveys Of the terri
tory and believes that only 10 or 10
cars should make the trip az this
time, in one group. The caravan Will
reach its destination at about noon,
returning TO E. Centro at any time
the individual car driver desires,
the return trip taking but an hour
and half.
