triple threat guard. He was the
finest kicker in the midwest. He
was a ck-breaking line plunger
He could pass with the best. And
when he pulled his 217 pounds out
of the line to run interference on
wide plays, he left little to be de-
sired.
Cronkite and Baker, the other end
and guard, respectively, were not far
behind Dalrymple and Mum in
class. Like his running mate from
Tulane, Cronkite was a keen dag
nostician of plays. The Kansas
State chap possessed magnificent
physique that enabled him to wear
down his opponents. Cronkite was
especially adept at snagging passes.
Baker Rated Highly
Baker could play any position on
the field and play it we'll. His
amazing speed and 185 pounds
made him a demon on leading the
interference on slants and sweeps.
He was a tower on defense, and as
a placement kicker was without
peer.
Quatse and Kurth form a most
formidable tackle combination.
Kurth outplayed every man he
lined up against all season. Rugged
and rangy and with a thorough
knowledge of his position, Quatse
lowered head and shoulders over all
the members of a Pittsburgh line
that was noted for its power.
Purdue's line was little better
than ordinary from tackle to tackle.
but Charles Cookie" Miller was good
enough TO make it appear strong.
He was particularly adept at pulling
out of the line and intercepting and
knocking down passes. He made
but one bad pass all season, and
was a vicious tackler.
George Kirksey, United Press
midwestern writer, rates Miller as
the finest lineSman in that section.

Teams Battling
To Aid Charity

For sweet charitys sake, Central
Union high school and junior COL
lege this afternoon were scheduled
to take the football field in game
that will see one or the other
tumbled from its place as a team
undefeated in valley competition.
With the junior college eleven en-
joying a weight advantage of ap-
proximately 10 pounds per man, high
school rooters are fearful the
Southern California Glass B cham
pionship team of the prep school
will take its first tumble OF the
season at the hands of the cole
giate players.
Others, however, are banking on
the superior speed and playing of
the high school eleven to win. All
proceeds from the game will go to
the unemployment relief fund in

NEW YORK, Dec. 4. tUP)-Ten-
nessee's lawn party with New York
University in the Yankee stadium
Saturday will do more than bring
in a baSketful of what it takes for
the unerployed-it will go a long
way toward settling argument
that has been going on down Dixie
way for several years concerning
Tennessee's class.
My statistical department is out
for tea at the moment but unless
my memory is at fault the Volun-
teers, as the Tennessee football
players are known to their friends,
have won something like 81 out of
their last SO starts. for a percent
age that reads like Paul Waner'S S
fielding average. Despite this tre-
mendous winning streak the south
the state of Tennessee excepted
of course-has been a trifle loath 70
give the Vols full credit. on the
grounds that all of Tennessee S
games were played in the south
against strictly sectional opposition.
I have heard it said that Tennes-
see never will be accorded full rec
ognition until it goes out and lines
up a schedule that calls for meet
ing a couple of major teams out
side the southern conference. Just
why the southern boys and girls
should adopt this attitude is very
hard TO understand. For the south
is a great deal like the far west in
that it believes that when better
football is played, teams in its Sec
ton will play it.
Why, then, I ask YOU, should the
south not be satisfied with the Vol
unteers ability to kick southern
teams 81 times out of SO. Don't ask
me, pals. All I can tell you is that
it is true.

FANS WILL SEE
REAL SCRAPS ON
T0NIGHT'S CARD

Flying gloves will provide -four
good bouts for Imperial Valley box
ing fans tonight, when the Imperial
Valley Athletic club presents its
weekly card in the local arena.
From top to bottom the card
looks to be even better than the
first three cards shown during this
season. and fans who witnessed the
latter know this is saying a great
deal.
There are no outstanding names
in any of the four bouts, and those
who follow boxing closely know that
this usually means plenty Of real
action. The boys with regulations
usually are so careful of them that
they will not risk them in small
clubs.
Max farley, an up and coming
Filipino fighter, who has been
great crowd pleaser in the north,
will take on Babe Colima. who is
known to folks here as a clever little
fighter who is in there doing his
best all the time. Three great
scraps he put on here last year with
Pete Sarmiento, were battles from
start to finish and tonight's affair
promises to be the same.
farley is credited with being a
stiff puncher. and as Colima is the
sort that is hard to hit, the going
should be active enough to suit any
one.
A crackerjack semi-final brings
together Jimmy Kramer CT San Di-
ego and Joe Saldivar of Los An
geles. Both fought here last week
and each defeated his opponent in
handy fashion. Kramer is vastly
improved youngster over the boy
who fought here last year and he
gave the tough Carl Hagar splen-
did lacing last week. Saldivar has
never been knocked off his fett and
he fought rings around Andy Arm
strong a week ago.
Johnny Cavos, fo-~ler Central
Union football star, will be il the
special event against Boyd 5haffer
of San Diego. Johnny is hard
puncher and is anxious to make
good on tonight's fight, having his
eye on higher assignments for fu-
ture cards.
Nino Perez and Baby Ruiz will
open the show Two little fellows
who are fast, clever and able tc hit.
their presence on the card prom
ises to get it off to flying start.

Certainly, no backfield of modern
years has boasted two more superb

Schwartz and Rentner. Schwartz
was the standout back of 1880. and
the same thing was true this year.
Saturday in and Saturday out he
faced the sternest sort of opposition,
and it was not until the closing
game of the season that he met a
team that could halt him.
Schwartz, in addition to being a
powerful runner, was a strong
kicker and fine passer.
Rentner, like Schwartz. could do
everything and do it we'll Mid
western experts rate him as the
finest natural runner since Red

Shaver Best Quarter
The 1881 season produced many
fine quarterbacks. but Shaver
proved himself the class of the
field. He was more dependable, re-
sourceful and a better ball carrier
than any of his rivals. Shaver had

General Trade Gain Seen
By Acacia Chieftain

William Montgomery, president
of the Acacia Mutual Life Asso-
citation sees general business i'm
prcvement strongly indicated by
the steady bette1ment of the lap
sation record of his organization
since the first of the year.
During the more recent months
especially, Acacia'S conservation
curve has shown a decidedly
more favorable trend, with writ
ten business and net gains also
showing substantial increases.
On the whole, it is pointed out
by Mr.. Montgomery, the steady
improvement in lapsation and
the gradual but important gains
in business in force, lead to the
conclusion that general condi-
tions are becoming more favor
able. He holds that these indices
are vitally significant in relation
to the entire economic situation.
During May, Acacia's produc-
tion was heaviest of any month
this year and the outlook is said
to be good for maintenance of
the rising tendency.

TAP LETS
LOOSE WAVE
+ Of SALES
Rail Issues Sag 2 to 4 Points
and Bears, Make U. S. Steel
Target for Brisk Attack
By w. S. COUSINS

NEW YORK. June G.N.SD.
Fridays reaction from the peak
of the weeks rally was carried
into a dull and featureless week
end session today, and many OF
the speculative favorites dropped
off / to 4 points.
Though the volume of trading
was comparatively small, there
was no sign of a let-up in the
selling wave from the first tap OF
the opening bell to the closing
period, many of the favorites
finishing at or near the bottom.
Many Taking Profits
Profit-taking and new short
selling by the professionals
accounted for the bulk Of the
activity of the short session.
New York Central bore the
brunt of fairly heavy selling in
the rail group and fell off 4
points to 7712, closing more than
3 points lower. at 1873. New
Haven closed at 7o1a, down 2;
Union Pacific down at 1924;
Atchison at 145A. down IA.
Final prices in the bulk of the
rails stood about midway be-
tween yesterdays peaks and
Wednesdays lowest Levels. Chesa-
peake and Ohio closed about a
point higher, at 3434.
United States Steel, which had
recovered il points from the low
of the week, was a shining target
for the bears today. The stock
fell off more than 3 points to
89B, down about S points from
the best price of the week, and
closed at 893s, down 2Ts.
Bethlehem Drops
Bethlehem was down a point
at 4312: American Telephone and
Telegraph down 17s at 667s; Gen
eral Electric down Ia at 355s;
Allied Chemical down 23s at
11O5s; Standard Oil of New Jer-
sey down 1A at 1924; Consoli-
dated Gas down 21s at 883s: Gen
eral Motors down 1A at 335s.
Consolidated Gas fell off an ad-
ditional 2 points to 885s. Auburn
Auto was comparatively quiet,
with a 4-point decline to 1853.
American Telephone and Tele-
graph lost point at 1914.
Cotton dropped off about IS
cents a bale on European and
Southern liquidation, while grain
prices rose fractionally at the
start. The stock market was
deadlocked near the noon period
and price movements were ex.
tremely narrow.

HISTORY HIN IS
BEAR MARKET
END NEARS
Wall Street Is Questioning
II Recent Upturn Rally Is
Permanent or Temporary
BY THE SPECTATOR

NEW YORK, June Gone of
the difficult questions confront,
ing Wall Street at the moment
is whether the recent reversal in
trend marked the elimination Of
the long bear market. or if it is
merely to be regarded as one of
those technical upturns which in
terrupt every protracted down.
ward movement.
Extensive study of the history
of bull and bear markets in the
past has brought out the fact
that the So-called market leaders
are almost always the last TO
complete their movement in
either direction.
"BIue Chips" Last To Turn
That is to say, that just as the
tail end of a bull market is
usually characterized by wide ad-
vanceS in the acknowledged blue
chip stocks. in which the second
ary issues do not participate, so
the endings of bear movements
are most frequently marked by
sharp and continued declines in
high-priced stocks in which the
secondary issues participate to
only a minor degree.
To determine just how the pres
ent market stands in relation to
this data, statistical service has
selected a group of so-called mar
ket leaders and compared their
performance with a group of sec
ondary issues. Price movements
Of these two groups are compared
from the first week in May, 1929,
to the first week in September.
1929, and again from the third
week in December, 1880, to June
l, 1881.
Similarity Is Seen
This study discloseS that in the
final stages of the 1929 bull mar
ket the group of market leaders
advanced on the average 363 per
cent in about four months. Dur
ing that identical period the sec
ondary issues declined approx
mately 3.87 per cent.
In the period September. 1929,
to December. 1880. the leading
stocks declined more than SO per
cent on the average, while for the
same period the secondary issues
declined 80.6 per cent on the av-
erage, thus indicating that the
secondary issues were liquidated
more rapidly than the leaders.
Process Reversed
Since the middle of December,
1880, the same leading stocks
have declined approximately Is
per cent, while the secondary is
sues have declined less than 6i2
per cent.
In other words. just as the sec
ondary issues failed to follow the
blue chip stocks in the final phase
Of the 1929 bull market they are
now practically ignoring the final
liquidation of the blue chip is
