GETTING OUT OF IT

Professor Head, the inventor, had
been spending a convivial evening with
some friends. When he arrived home
he found to his horror that 1t was
nearly three o'clock in the morning.
His wife heard him enter the house,
and presently her voice doomed down
the stairs.
"What time Is it?" she asked.
The inventor trembled.
Suddenly he noticed that the grand
father clock was about to strike the
hour Of three.
Listen, DEAR" he said. as the clock
struck three. Then he quickly moved
the hand to four and then to five.
"Just twelve!" he added.
ooh, thought it was much later," !"
said his wife.
The professor smiled artfully.

JObless Find No Miracle Al
Ottawa

Ottawa (ILNS)-The second ma
tional wave of unemployed to invade
Ottawa included married women and
girls who had travelled in freight cars
Some from the far west. "Nice-look-
ing girls who had by miracle kept
themselves surprisingly neat and
clean," the reporters said.
Seven hundred delegates from un-
employed councils in many cities con-
ferred, passed resolutions, and, at
tempting to hold a demonstration on
Market square, were roughly handled
by the police. Fourteen men and
women arrested were let out next day
on condition Of quitting the capital.
Premier Bennett received delega-
tion and promised he would maintain
law and order and protect property at
all costs. The delegation asked ade-
quate emergency relief unemploy-
ment insurance, work-week Of five
days of seven hours each, and aboli-
ton of child labor under 16. Then
they aroused the ire of Premier Ben
nett by asking his intervention with
the British empire to secure the re-
lease of labor and political prisoners
in British India; withdrawal of the
Canadian embargo against Russia,
and prohibition of shipments of arms
to Japan. Bennett retorted with lee
ture on British rule in India, the
iniquities of Russia, the troubles of
the rich, and the need of the unem-
ployed helping the government in
these trying times, instead of making
foolish demands and stirring up dis
content.
"The conditions you refuse to cor
rect are driving girls to the street" !"
a married woman told him bluntly.
"Now, now, don't be bitter" was
the response of the statesman who
promised to end unemployment or
perish in the attempt.

They are sucking the life-blood of
commerce
They do not want use of food to
balance production of food
Since that process would bring
them no profit.
They are not content with taking
the surplus.
Now they want to keep the food
from the children's bellies.
To serve their purpose they must
twist the bowels of men.
They are willing to gnaw at the
hearts of mothers and wives.
And they know full well what they
are doing.
Super-Rats!

PLANNED Production"
Planned, for what?
That depends upon who makes the
plans.
Planning for sale of products, will
be foolish if it exceeds the markets
demand.
Planning production for use, must
take account of distribution.
Production for anything else than
use, is crazy economies.
Food, clothing, shelter-the essen
tials Of life
Therefore, the essentials to be pro-
duced-for use.
A family can produce enough Of
these to keep alive
Under primitive conditions,
With nothing but hand labor, and
crudest tools.
They can even accumulate enough
to last over the hard years.
But this is when they get the use
of all they produce.
When all the users have to produce
all they eat and wear
The lazy man gets prodded by his
own appetite.
To this will be added the prods of
his wife and children.
He'll work! He'll hunt! He'll

Newspaper Film
At Fox Imperial

Packed with the sensationalisn
with which big murder trials nave
come to be saturated, THE Famous
Ferguson Case which plays to-
night only at Fox Imperial thea
tire, exposes the behind the scenes"
atmosphere in such instances.
Following somewhat the basis of
one OF the biggest actual Staying
cases in the country, the picture
shows the part newspapers and
publicity have to play in moulding
the guilt or innocence of accused
persons.
An exceptionally long list of film
stars, headed by Joan Blondell and
Tom Brown, is seen in the play.
The story was written by Court
enay Brick" Terrett, who has COW
cred most of the bigger criminal
cases in the country. In reproduc-
ing it, First National Pictures has
adhered closely to his intention of
giving the public a closeup of the
work in which he was SO long en-
gagged.
Modern journalism of the sensa-
tional sort is wildly portrayed as
reporters take a hand in question
ing accused, seeking evidence
against them, and in some cases
manufacturing the evidence them
selves.
THE Famous Ferguson Case" is
the explanation of the headlines
which greet the big city newspaper
buyer time and again.

San Francisco's two coast league
teams, the Seals and Missions, to-
day were to begin their epochal,

if day baseball games are more
profitable than night games.
The Missions, back from sue
cessful invasion of the south, and
the Seals, who did not do SO well,
were to begin a nine-game series
at San Francisco. All were to be
daylight games, and, if the crowds
improve, team leaders said they
planned to abandon night ball
entirely.
The remainder of the coast league
teams will meet in night games.
The Oaks will play Seattle at

meet the Los Angeles Angels at

HIGHEST FLOW
This WEEK-EN

Indications are that the Imper-

Colorado river the latter part of
this week will be called upon to
handle the greatest amount of wat
er since 1923.
This was made known upon re-
ceipt of a telegram from Grand
Canyon today which read, "Anti-
cipate approximately 10000 second
feet at Yuma on June g."
M. J. Dowd, chief engineer, said
this morning he anticipated the
10000 second feet Friday or Satur-
day of this week as 95,5O0 second
feet constituted the report from
Grand Canyon on Sunday.
Today's report carried the infor-
nation that the discharge at Yuma
was $1,000 second feet, indicating
a rise from the 1890 second feet
recorded yesterday.
The reading for today at Grand
Canyon was 300 second feet and
at Topoc 1900 second feet.

SPORTS PARADE
OFFERS VARIETY
IN T0DAY'S NEWS
BY HENRY McLEMORE
United Press Staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, May PA full,
complete, thorough and impelling
realization that he was no Babe
Ruth is the reason advanced by
Jimmy Foxx, Philadelphia Athletics
third baseman, for his tremendous
batting spree this season.
"Yes SIR" the cherub-faced slug
ger said, "it took me a long time
TO realize I wasn't any Ruth and
had no business trying to use the
same sort of 40-ounce bat he does.
I sorta had feeling a 40-ouncer
was too heavy for me as far back
as two years ago, but everybody
kept insisting that any guy as big
and strong as me should be able to
swing as heavy stick as the next
one.
well, this year l decided to make
a change and see what happened.
So / ordered myself a mes of 81
ouncers and a couple of 35-ouncers.
1t made me new man in no time
l started hitting like 1 never hit
before. There's only one trouble
with the light bats. After you poke
a couple on the nose, they begin
to weaken"
Was the change in bats the only
reason for his rejuvenation at the
plate?
Nav, there's another thing. I've
quit trying to get the pitcher in the
hole. Last year when the count
was three and one or something
like that I'd let one pass. But this
year I'm hitting at everything that
comes across the plate. Most of
the pitchers know this now, and
they've quit throwing 'cripples'
across. And knowing that I'm 60
ing to take cut at all the good
ones they throw, makes the pitch
ers bear down all the time. Lots
of times this results in them trying
too much stuff and 1 get pass"
Has An Idea
Jimmy was asked if his success
in hitting homers this year had
put any thoughts in his head about
beating the Babes record.
Sure, I think about beating it.
And I might do it, too. Maybe not
this year, maybe not next year.
But you see I'm only "a, so I've
got plenty of time. I never will
break it, however, if they deaden
the ball any more. Neither will
anybody else. But I figure they'll
keep the ball about like it is now.
Was there any one pitcher who
game him more trouble than the
others?
"Yeh, that Blaeholder fellow with
the st. Louis Browns. He throws
, a ball-a slider I think it's called
that is the meanest thing to hit I
ever saw. It's sort of cross be-
tween a fast ball, curve, fade
away and a public nuisance. Ev-
cry time I see it wonder how a
guy can be expected to smack it.

SAN FRANCISCO, May "a. U.PS--
Tommy Grogan's cockiness in the
ring paved the way to swift
knockout that was the talk of fight
fans here today.
He stuck out his paw at the start
of the first round and Goldie Hess
San Francisco lightweight, landed
a right hand punch that ended the
fight just II seconds after it had
started. Ten of those II seconds
were consumed by the referee
counting over the fallen Omaha
battler. Grogan weighed 14314,
Hess 1879.
CASTOR LeCadre, 145iA, France,
took eight rounds of his 10-round
go with Charley Cobb, 145l2, San
Diego Cobb took one and one
was even.
