Imperial Highway
Association Seeks
Help OF San Diego

Returning from the monthly
meeting of the Imperial Highway
association. held Saturday evening
in La Habra, Orange county, Rob-
ert Hays Of the FL Centre Chamber
of Commerce reported much prog
ress since the last meeting of the
organization. Different achieve
ments are reported at each meet
ing of the association and at this
last meeting it was planned to re-
quest the San Diego county plan
ming commission to report favor
ably to the supervisors on the pro-
posal that San Diego county should
Join with the counties of Riverside,
Orange, Imperial and Los Angeles
in forming a five-county joint high
way district for the survey OF the
Imperial highway route.
1t is urged that the five-counties
can proceed with the preliminary
surveys and the cost estimates and,
on the completion of the same,
they can decide whether or not to
proceed to the construction work.
Members of the San Diego county
planning commission have made
several trips to Imperial county to
study road situations, two of which
have taken them as far east as
Lordsburg. N. M, to study trans
continental traffic and its effect on
San Diego and Imperial counties.
It was felt by the members of the
Imperial Highway association pres
ent at La Habra on Saturday that
San Diego county's planning COM
mission must have accumulated suf-
ficient data and facts to permit
them now to recommend to their
supervisors that the work of sur
veying should proceed.
Hays said at the meeting several
reports of progress were made; one
of these was to the effect that a
steam shovel in Orange county is
now grading that portion of the
route not already built. In Los An
geles county rights-of-Way have
been secured through small tract
and Los Angeles is to lay pave
ment SO feet wide as soon as deeds
are executed. The route of the
road through the state hospital
grounds at Norwalk has been sat-
isfactorily adjusted and the State
of California, with certain small re-
strictions, has agreed to grant a
deed through the Norwalk grounds
Returning, Hays drove through
the new road in Riverside county
near Aguanga, being constructed
by Highway Engineer Fulmer OF
that county, and reported splen-
did grade. He stated, "They have
made a straight, level slash through
the foothills and are constructing
a road wider than any road we
have ever seen built in mountain
area"

Fare Evaders Get
Jail Sentences

1t might be a conscientious
scruple, or something of that sort,
but officers at the county Jail are
wondering today why Walter Dali
man, %, and Emio Dallman, "a, are
serving five-day Jail sentences i'm
posed by Judge R. F.. Jones of Nj
land for evading payment of rail-
road fare.
Not only that, but the officers
are wondering why the two evaded
payment of the fare in the first
place.
For both were sentenced to pay
fines of So or serve five days. When
booked at the county Jail it was
discovered Walter Dallman had
had 1923 in cash and 5000 in trav-
eler's checks, and that the other
prisoner had $3 in cash. Yet both
chose to serve the time.

CENTER
SUPPORTS MOVE
TO CUT EXPENSE

First folloW-up work in the farm
bureaus efforts to reduce the
school budget for the county took

tives of the Jasper Farm center
went before the board of trustees
of the Calexico high school in sup
port of the grand jury's recommen-
dation of a 25 per cent cut in the
school budget.
The committee pointed out that
while it did not recommend certain
definite items to be cut, il did en-
dorse the cut suggested by the
grand jury's committee as being
a conservative reduction for the
total school budget
The two groups talked over the
matter III friendly manner and
agreed to meet again on May l.
when they will go over the prob
lem of budget reduction in detail.
Farm bureau members on this
committee are: John Fiala, char
man of the Jasper center tax COM
mittee; l.. S. Neagle, and Scott B.
Foulds, secretary manager of the
board farm bureau, who is on this
committee in eX-officio capacity.
The McCabe Eucalyptus tax
committee is calling a meeting of
school trustees for all the schools
in that district, of which there are
quite a number. Budget reduction
will be the theme Of the discus
sion. McCabe trustees will meet

ton, Aubrey Smith and Forester
Harvey have the principal roles.
The jungle life of Africa, which
has been seen in several films in
recent years, forms an important
part of the picture. Elephants, al
ligators, hippopotamus, monkeys of
numerous varieties, the pygmies
and lions provide numerous thrill
ing incidents as the story is un-
folded.
Weismuller has an opportunity
to display his ability as a SWIM
mer, tearing through the water as
fast as the heroine can follow him
afoot on the path that parallels

in a class by himself, his agility
and speed in this work being mar

Listen, Ann. The more I think
Of it, the more I'm sure that we
didn't really quarrel. VIII you
listen while I tell you about it
again, and see if it seems like a
quarrel to you?
Il mean-if it doesn't seem to
you that, after Barry's had time to
think it over, he'll decide that it
wasn't actually what he'd call a
quarrel.
Il told you, you know, that he
said raised voices, and Squawking
sarcasms, and things like that. I'm
sure 1 didn't raise my voice. I never
do scream-do I, Ann? Truly, do
I?"
Honey, honey, Of course not"
1T began about the party. Or
did tell you about that?"
Not all about it," lied poor Ann.
Il didn't say a word, you know I
didn't, when he went to Gretchen's
party in April, though he knew I
hadn't been invited.
He'd promised to go before
well, before we'd found each other.
l didn't let him know 1 cared a bit
was pleasant and nice about it
as I could be. And he said he
didn't have a good time at all, and
was bored to death, and kept hop
ing that he could get away early
enough to see me later.
But took notice that he didn't.
And when the picnic came up in
May didn't say much, either. I
said a little, and he explained that
the crowd had been nice to him
ever since he'd come back to Port
land, and ALL guess I told you
about how he was going to put a.
girl something like Gretchen in his
next book-a self-made sophisti-
cate he called her-and, well, l
didn't fuss even about the picnic.
But when this third affair came
up, it simply got to be too much
of good thing. I couldn't under
stand why he wished to go places,
constantly, without me.
Il wouldn't have gone near any
place where he hadn't been invited.
I didn't say that he should not go.
just tried to find out, if possible,
why he cared to go. And he said
What did I say he said, exactly,
Ann?"
THAT he didn't care to go. But
that the Steigerwalds had been very
good to him, and that he'd rather
sacrifice an evening than lie to
them. And he reminded you that
you'd rather get in early than lie
to Grand and Rosalie in the
morning.
Wasn't that it? And that if
you'd allow him to say that you
and he were engaged he'd be glao
to say that he couldn't go, and
why"
"All that stuff Conventional
absurd. It wasn't Barry. Barry
never takes the conventional atti-

stand it.
And I can't understand how we

When at last Tarzan of the Apes stood upon
firm ground, he realized why it was that for
perhaps countless ages, this territory had
defed all efforts to penetrate it. 1t seemed
to him that he had discovered a new world as
yet unspoiled by man. HippopotamusCs,
rhinoceroses and elephants in and about the
marsh he often countered in great numbers.

After leaving the man-eaters' village, Tarzan
mace his way southwest, crossing after the
most appalling hardships vast, waterless
steppe covered with dense thorn. At last he
came into a district that probably had never
previously been entered by any white man and
was known only in the legends of the tribes
whose country bordered it.

There were precipitous mountains, wide plains,
well watered plateaus and vast, swampy
morasses in which at night the ape-man saw
many weird monsters. Only after weeks Of
srduous effort did he succeed in finding a
spot where he might cross these dreadful, for
bidding swamps. It was a hideous stretch in
tested with all manner of venomous and
dangerous creatures

In this strange country Tarzan was amazed
to find every known species of bird and beast,
together with many unknown to the rest of
the world. Not the least interesting to him were
the black and yellow striped lions. These were
smaller than those he knew in his own jungle.
They possessed sharp, saber-like teeth and
we're exceedingly ill-tempered. Some we're
