POWER COMPANY
SETS LIMIT ON
DISTRICT DEBT

The Southern Sierras Power
company, through its assistant
treasurer, A. S. Cooper, has notified
the board of directors of the I'm
perial Irrigation District that it
will cooperate with the district dur
ing it's present financial stringency
by accepting warrants in payment
of power bills up to the total
amount of $4,000 but after that
amount of extension of credit is
reached, it will be necessary for
the district to pay cash for future
service or power service will be
discontinued.
The letter, sent to the district
under date of March l, calls atten-
ton to the fact that warrants have
been accepted by the power COM
pany for December and January
bills and that it is estimated that
the $4,000 total set for their ac-
ceptance should carry the district
to June l of the present year.
The letter states that the power
company fully appreciates the Sit
uation that confronts the board
of directors in the present emergen-
cy and desires to cooperate to the
extent of its ability but that it also
recognizes a definite limit to its
ability to assist in financing the
district by acceptance of warrants
and has taken its action on limit
alton in the interests of its other
customers and company stockhold-

SHERIFF PLACES
SMOKING BAN ON
COUNTY'S AUTOS

Sheriff George L. Campbell's
office force was about equally di-
vided last night on the question Of
the heroism of Mrs. Harold Gillett,
wife of the sheriff's investigator.
One-half the force was ready
to vote her a medal, but the other
half muttered things under their
various breaths and shook their
various heads gloomily.
No. 5 was the reason for the
sharp division. No. is the veteran
automobile of the sheriff's fleet.
Mrs. Gillett was calling for her
husband late yesterday when she
saw smoke curling from the inside
of the automobile. At first it
seemed to her someone was smok-
ing Justify in the car. But, since
investigation seems to run in the
family, she investigated.
The front seat of No. was
smouldering, ready to break into
flames without notice. Mrs. Gillett
Immediately summoned an officer,
which was not so difficult. Not one
officer, but several, came.
While Harold Gillett doused the
back of the cushion thoroughly
from a canteen, Lloyd Castanien
removed the bottom cushion and
placed it under hydrant. The
smouldering embers disappeared,
and the danger was over.
But after thinking the matter
)over, several deputies contended
Mrs. Gillett should be placed under
arrest for discovering the fire. No.
5, they contended, has seen suffi-
cient service. Others, attached to
the car because of it's long service,
were Of a different opinion.
Sheriff Campbell was of the lat
ter opinion, and issued an order
that henceforth no smoking will be
allowed in county cars assigned to
the sheriff's office. Deputies today
still were wondering if he means it.

B. L. writes: "What makes the
skin crack and peel off between my
toes? 1t itches terribly"
REPLY
Probably ringworm, or. as 1t is
more commonly called Athletes
Foot. Go after it at once with a
powerful antiseptic, like Emerald
Oil which usually banishes every
symptom in two weeks at most.
Rub your feet with the oil night
and morning. Emerald Oil isn't
greasy and does not stain.D Boil
your hose and bed linen and air
your shoes in the sun to prevent
reinfection.
You can get Moones Emerald Oil

CENTRAL UNION
ATHLETES ENTER
San DIEGO MEET

Joining the high school leagues
of San Diego county, the city of
San Diego and Imperial county,
Central Union high school, Satur-
day, will send nine boys to San
Diego to compete for places in the
preliminary track and field meet
at the San Diego State college at
1:30 Saturday afternoon.
Winners of first two places in
each event at this meeting will
qualify for a free trip to Los An
geles, where they will be entered
in the final California high school
tournament. At various places
Saturday afternoon four othef
semi-final meets will be held. This
will enter 10 men in each event at
the Los Angeles finals, May IA.
Seven El Centro boys will COM
pete in the class "a" meet and two
in the class &C" meet.
El Centro has entered Hal Cass
in the 660-yard run and MeJi
Fuyizawa in the 120-yard low hur-
dies and broad jump. Cass has
been working hard since he won
the ego at the valley meet, and is
expected to return from San Diego
with a first place medal and
assured of a free trip to Los An
geles.
Fujizawa is practically assured
of a first place in the 120yard
low hurdles, and may place in the
broad jump.
Myrl Gillett, although entered
in the 100-yard dash and 440-yard
run, probably will confine his ef-
forts Saturday to the 440 and re-
lay. He has been bothered by a
sore leg, and too much running
might hurt his chance at the fl
mails. Gillett is yet to be beaten
in the 440, and is expected to win
easily Saturday.
Madlem TO Compete
Leslie Bennett, although entered
in the $50 and 900, may compete
only in the $50. He should win
this easily. His training was is
terrupted by a short illness, but he
appears to be in shape again. He
also will run a lap in the relay.
Leo Maiden is entered in the
1OO-yard dash broad jump and
220-yard hurdles. 1t is expected
Maiden will have plenty Of COM
petition in the broad jump, his
favorite event and an event in
which he has made an especially
good showing this year.
John King, winner of second
place in the mile at the recent
valley meet, is the only FL Centro
candidate entered in this event
He has improved considerably since
the valley meet, and should give
Babbit of Sweetwater a hard race.
Lawrence Hartsog, 440-yard dash,
and Walter Templeton, 880-yard
run, are other entries who may
gather unto themselves first places.

LITTLE INTEREST

NEW YORK, May 5. UP}-Max
5chmeling and Jack Sharkey are
scheduled to meet for the worlds
heavyweight championship in New
York on June 16. The date is four
days and two years after the orig
inal Schmeling-Sharkey meeting.
This time two years ago there
was plenty Of fight talk to be
heard at the ball games, in sub
ways and across the bridge tables.
Today there is almost none.
James JOY Johnston. the much
pubhcized director-in chief of Mad
ison Square Garden fight enter

to be unwrapped between today
and the fight day. For his own
good and for the success of the
venture. they had better be POI

by many, that is.
The apparently apathetic regard
in which The fight is held is not
easy to understand. Here's a re-
turn engagement of fighters whose
first meeting prompted a lovely
argument. Sharkey's supporters
pointed out that the Boston sailor
was all over the German in the
early rounds, and insisted that
Schmeling took an easy out" with
his foul claim in the fourth.
Schmeling's friends believed Max
when he said he had intended 10
allow Jack to 90 all the leading
in the first four rounds. and
pointed to the fact that Schmel-
ing, while hurt by Sharkey. was
not in real distress. and claimed.
finally, that the foul was the
Mccoy.
All OF these things should have
made the June bout a natural.
But there's something wrong some
where, and unless Jimmy Johnston
turns on some real publicity heat,
the Garden folks may be riding
for fall And in their brand new

LOUISVILLE, KY, May 5.-(U.P)
Derby hour approached for Louis

Race talk increased. This year

CENTRAL NINE
FACES TEST
TODAY
BY GINO SINH


wild Bill' Payne, of western,
is right now the most significant
figure in the interhigh school
baseball series. even though he
has not yet pitched ball in it.
The deroument comes today
though, as the wild one" toes
the slab against Central. who be,
cause of its handy win over Busi
ness, and a veteran turnout is
slightly favored in the proceed
ings this year.
Payne, a hefty six-foot senior
has loads of speed, and when he
is going good has something" on
the ball. With little support at
the bat by his teammates he fig.
ures to be able to beat any of the
teams in the series. Two years
ago he led Western to a cherished
win over Tech.
Allows One Hit
In his two appearances this
year, he was touched for eight
hits in six innings by Washing
ton and Lee, but st. Alban could
only clock him for one safety
over the same distance, last
week. Besides he famed eight
Saints.
Coach Cliff Moore has Johnny
Ready in reserve, lad with
fine control. He needs expert
ence. however.
"We've got a young team
and naturally light in hitting
power. But the boys are will
ing workers, and are rapidly
learning to hit harder and
more timely"
Moore remarked, "a bit of
timely hitting with Payne going
good and Central may be sur
priSed"
Lee Hilleary, stocky backstop,
will be in the cleanup position
for the West-enders.' Hilleary,
Payne, Ready and Clark, the
third baseman, are the only first
stringers carried over from last
year. Western was tied in both
its games this year, 6-6 against

The Dairy Maids are so good
that none of the other New Eng
land feminine teams will roll
them, and so they have to pick
on men.
They have been so successful
even in this direction, that the
men are fighting shy of rolling
them. Hence, the challenge to
Washington.
The Nutmeggers figure that if a
half dozen or so of the Capitals
best would motor up to their natty
little town, this would be good
chance to do so. George I. Ise-
mann, N. D. B. c. secretary, will
arrange the match.
Leaman Goes Wild
Margaret Leaman's rolling in
the second annual Pittsburgh
"rubber-banded" duckpin tourna-
ment is even more remarkable
than it first appeared.
She figured in two new worlds
marks for the rubbery sticks-a
1,400 nine-game, all-event total, a
bushel of pins ahead of the former
mark, and then rolled 46O in the
doubles-which, with Irene Scott's
431. chalked up another worlds
mark, 891, the former record being
846.
4SO With Team
Margaret had 48O in the team,
which permitted them to roll 1892,
good for fourth place. This set is
expected to be some kind of rec
ord. Miss Leaman had 33 strikes
and 26 spares in her three sets.
But the Pittsburgh lassies got
revenge. Making their first ap-
pearance against the wooden pins,
they handed the Washington girls
19-pin beating. All the Smoky
City charmers rolled excellent sets.
