WILLY WARNER ONCE STOPPED
 AT OWN GAME
Late Percy Haughton Once Went Pop" Just
 One Better

NEW YORK, Dec. 29.-The foot ball world well knows of the wiles of Pap" Warner, the tricks his Carlisle, "Injuns" used to spring on the palefaces in the old days of football, but the fact that the late Percy Haughton once went him one better may be news to some of Pops" admirers.
 It was back in 1912, or there abouts, few years after Charley Dillon one of Warmers Carlisle pupils had tucked a football in the back of his jersey and run the length of the field through Haugh- tons Harvard team for a tcuch- down.
 The rules committee since had outlawed the hidden ball' trick, so Warner did some deep thinking again. He wanted something new to pull on Harvard. He evolved the idea of stitching a piece of 1CdtllCl, 1CoCiIlUl1ilS lOOGUdll, Oll the front of each Carlisle jersey. You couldn't tell to save your life which buck was carrying the ball.
 But. unfortunately for Warmers scheme, the news leaked out. The day the Carlisle squad reached cambridge. Haughton sought out his coaching rival
 Say Pop, understand your boys have footballs stitched on their sweaters" he said
 Sure" smiled Warner, there's no rule against it7 fk
 That's right" Haughton agreed but I just wanted to let you know we're going to play with a nice red white and blue football today. We painted it up pretty just for you. That is, unless you want to remove those pieces of leather
 Warner knew when he was licked. The imitation ovals came off.

Doctors Give Creosote
 For Dangerous Coughs

For many years our best doctors have prescribed creosote in some form for coughs, colds and bronchitis, knowing how dangerous it is to let them hang on.
 Creomulsion with creosote and six other highly important medicinal ele- ments, quickly and effectively stops all coughs and colds that otherwise might lead to serious trouble.
 Creomulsion is powerful in the treat. ment of all colds and coughs no matter how long standing. yet it is absolutely harmless and is pleasant and easy to take.
 Your own druggist guarantees Creo- mulsion by refunding your money if you are not relieved after taking Creomul- sion as directed. Beware the cough or cold that hangs on. Always keep Creo. mulsion on hand for instant use, (adv.)

ANN ARBOR, Mich, Dec. 29.- Advocates of abolishing the extra point after touchdown are not likely to be found at the University of Michigan.
 Not since 1920 has Michigan lost a game by failing to boot the extra point. But the Wolverines have correctly gauged the goal posts to account for five victories by the extra point in the last 12 years.

Light Comedy At
Theatre Tonight

Another of the light and frothy
comedies, which have given Robert
Montgomery stardom in the movies,
will be shown at Fox Imperial thea
ire tonight under the title But the
Flesh Is Weak"
This sophisticated comedy re-
veals the trials and tribulationS of
a young couple who are poor as
the proverbial church mouse, but
who decide that they can live on
love, when romance grips them in
it's embrace.
While this form Of living is
loudly praised in books, in practical
life it is a bit different as the
neWlyweds learn when the first
effects of the honeymoon have be-
come history.
Nora Gregor, newcomer to the
screen, has the leading feminine
role of the girl who decided that
love was worth everything, even to
the humdrum of marriage on mod
est means.
But the Flesh Is Weak" is clever
and smart, with giggleS and laughs
throughout the dialogue and the
situations in which the young
couple find themselves.
Tonight is china night" at Fox
Imperial, each woman buying an
admission ticket being entitled to
one piece of a set of china.

COURT ACQUITS
LLNDERMAN IN
GASOLINE CASE

II the wheels of justice ground
too slowly. Judge 1. Mayfield never
would have finished his day yes
terday. for the number of cases on
the docket did not allow of any
pause.
After a trial of T. w. Linderman
on a charge of violation of the
state gas and oil substitution act,
which lasted all morning and into
the afternoon, Judge Mayfield held
the Ell Centro service station man
was not guilty of selling oil other
than that listed on the label OF
the dispensing machine.
Patrick Cassidy, who appeared on
a charge of attempted burglary,
drew two sentences. One was passed
after the charge had been reduced
to attempted petty theft and he
had pleaded guilty. He was SEN
fenced to 90 days in the county
iail for this. The other sentence
came when Cassidy, acting as his
own attorney and cross examining
M. f. Willis, complaining witness,
called the latter a liar.
Judge Mayfield did not hesitatT
but announced to the defendant he
was in contempt of court, and sem
fenced him to pay fine of $50
or serve 25 days in Jail. The sem
tence was suspended, however
when Cassidy apoliogized. He was
charged with attempting to steal
$3.50 worth of stamps from local
service station.
Art Parker also appeared before
Judge Mayfield yesterday afternoon.
A charge of issuing fictitious
check was reduced to attempted
petty theft, and on plea of guilty
Parker was sentenced to so days
in the county Jail.
D. H. Lyou appeared for a pre-
liminary hearing on a charge of
forging the pink slip to an auto
mobile, but because of insufficient
evidence the charge was dismissed.

COUNTIES GUARD
AGAINST ALFALFA
WEEVIL THREAT

Quarantine regulations and
methods of eradicating the alfalfa
Weevil which has recently been
discovered in the counties of the
/ San Joaquin valley district were
] discussed yesterday at the meeting
] OF state agricultural commissioners
held yesterday in Los Angeles.
B. A. Harrigan. local commits
sioner, attended the meeting and
+ reports that the commissioners set
the Tehachapi mountains as the
border line and that no hay from
counties north of that line can be
shipped into Southern California
Since it is felt that Ken and
Tulare counties are sufficiently
distant from the infestationS. hay
from those two counties will be ac-
cepted in Southern California un-
der certification of inspection.
On May 25 the state department
of agriculture will have a meeting
to determine quarantine regulations
and local growers are urged to send
a representative to demand suffi-
cient protection to prevent the
spread OF the infestation to this
county.
After q survey of the situation
the recommendations of the COM
miSsioners were sent to a gather
ing of farm bureau members,
growers, shippers and others in
terested who agreed with the tenn
porary quarantine restrictions i'm
posed by the commissioners. Both
meetings went on record as favor
ing quarantine of the infested
areas so that the rest of the state
might be protected.
Surveys are being made i'll all
counties and Harrigan reports that
to date no infestations have been
found in this county. The task
confronting inspectors here is some
what greater than in other coun-
ties since there are 100000 acres
devoted to alfalfa hay producing.
AT the commissioners meeting
it was decided to ask Arizona, in
view of the fact that this state is
spending so much money on the
prevention of the spread Of alfalfa
weevil. to put on similar surveys in
the districts shipping hay into this
state so that the state may be pro-
tected.
At present it is known that the
California infestations cover an
area 10 miles wide and 35 miles
long but a complete survey may
reveal further infestations.

/ and both the house leaders of both
parties have endorsed it.
Congress years ago passed laws
governing the civil service en-
ployees of the executive depart
ments which provide that not more
than two members of the same
family may be carried on the civil
service rolls. Yet not only Sen
Smith w. Brookhart tRep) Iowa
but other wel-known senators who
may be named later have more
than one relative on the rolls, max
ing three of the family altogether,
as do many congressman.
Missouri has an anti-nepotism
provision in the state constitution,
yet one Of NIiSsour's senators,
Patterson lRep), ard nine Of the
16 representatives have or have
had within the last year, members
of their family on the payroll. One
has an aged father-in-law on who
has never been in Washington,
though the congressman says the
money is used for hiring other
clerks.
Idaho has an anti-nepotism law,
passed in 1929, but Sen. John
Thomas (Repl, until some months
ago had first his daughter and
then his sister on the payroll. the
latter being an assistant cashier in
the senator's bank.
SmOot Is Story
Utah passed a law against en-
ployment of relatives a year ago
but the entire Utah delegation in
congress. excepting Senator Smoot
(RepD have relatives on the rolls,
or at least until a few days ago.
Senator Smoot also was in this
group until some months ago. He
is a story in himself, as will ap-
pear in these dispatches soon.
Mississippi passed an anti
law in 1926, yet some
members of the Mississippi delega-
ton have relatives on the rolls.
Nevada is another anti-nepotism
state. Her one congressman, Sam
uel Arentz, carried both his wife
and young son on the rolls at one
time-the wife as a clerk and the
lad as a page.
So the list goes, indicating that
is trailing far behind
many states in the matter OF
cleaning UP its own payroll and
ending the racketeering in employ
ment of relatives The pending
bill of Rep. j. r. Mitchell (DemD
to stop the practice has
been given the thumbs down sign.
The leaders have come around to
permitting the public to see who
they are appointing to the govern
ment payroll. They regard that as
a great forward step, and one of
those at q time is about all the
traffic can bear in the house.

Since discovery of the CHASTITY

indicated their belief that this man
was either the kidnaper or fell
low conspirator since he possessed
the secret sign cade used in the
original ransom note and also pro-
duced a baby night suit which sat-
isfied Colonel Lindbergh as be-
longing to the child.

Of congressman and some senators
are going contrary to the spirit Of
laws in their respective states for
bidding the employment OF rela-
tiveS.
They are abla to do this legally
because senators and congressman

only ignored anti-nepotism bills
which have been occasionally in

HOPEWELL, N. j., May 20. -
State police want John Hughes
Curtis, Lindbergh faker. to face
Dean H. Dobson-Peacock whose
Norfolk church members refer to
the police as ''bunglers, traffic
cops, and not very good traffic
cops at that"
Col. H. Norman Schwartzkopf,
commander of the police, an
nounced that 1T is particularly de-
sirable now to confront Mr.. Curtis
with Mr.. Peacock"
The police want to clear up cer-
tain unexplained details in the
confession they say they obtained
from Curtis. among them a request
for a $4,000 deposit as earnest
money"
The Norfolk minister whose name
and reputation were used with that
of Rear Admiral Guy H. Burrage
to lend credence to Curtis fiction
al negotiation, has refused to come
to Hopewell but has offered to
submit to questioning in Norfolk.
And while the Norfolk negotiators
and the state police quarreled over
alleged efforts to place responsible
ity for failure Of the kidnap hunt
on one another. the trail of the
actual kidnapers and murderers of
Charles A. Lindbergh, Jr, grew
colder.
Curtis had been fingerprinted,
Schwartzkopf announced, bat has
not added TO his confession an
nounced Tuesday. The colonel said
he was convinced Curtis had moth
ing TO do with the actual kidnap-
ing, or with payment OF $4,000 by
Dr.. John F. Condor (Jafsie) to
the alleged kidnapers
Condor visited West Point to
look over some records there; he
made several visits to Bronx police
headquarters; and he took time
out to explain that Mary G.. Ford,
questioned by police in another
matter, was one of many who tried
to borrow money from him after
his name had been mentioned in
the Lindbergh investigation.
Colonel Lindbergh led a group in
re-enacting the kidnapping as they
believed it occurred. Col. Henry C.
Breckenridge, detectives and police
assisted him.

Officials Watch
Packing Trouble

Spreading to the most active ship
ping centers of Imperial Valley, diff
ficulties between fruit and vege-
table packers and growers last
night caused Undersheriff Rodney
Clarke to marshall the forces Of
the Sheriff'S office into patrols at
Brawley, El Centro and Seeley.
Officers assigned to duty at
Seeley and Ell Centro reported no
trouble. but Brawley proved Slight
ly troublesome as union and nom
union packers clashed in disputes
over a seven cent rate for packing
cantaloupes. Union forces are seek
ing an eight cent rate from the
growers, while cowboy packers, or
non-union men, are working for the
seven cent rate offered by the grow
ers and shippers.
Measures taken by the sheriff's
office and police departments of the
various towns are more in the ma
ture of precautions against trouble
which might arise, than in eXpecta-
ton that any serious situation will
develop.
Jack Person, president of the
Fruit and Vegetable Packers as
sociation, this morning urged all
members of the organization to re-
frain from any violence, to help
preserve peace and cooperate with
law enforcement officers in main
tanning law and order.
He said, mo matter how any
member of the association may be
annoyed, please refrain from show
ing resentment. There is nothing
to be gained by violence on our
part"
