Eastern Star Holds
 Benefit For Hospital

Eleven tables of cards were in play in the Bills Club rooms Tues day night at the hospital benefit given by the Eastern Star. Prizes for high scores were won by Mrs, c. M. Coulter and M. o. thomson while consolation prizes were awarded to Mrs. H. D. Campbell and Gunnar Engstrom.
 The receipts for the evening amounted to $2750 to which was added a donation of s5 by Ole Johnson. The committee in charge of the affair was composed of the worthy matron, Mrs. E. M. Camp bell. chairman, Miss Edna Sin clair. Mrs. Ernest Anderson, Mrs. NettIeton, Mrs. Mcbride and Miss Lempi Saarikoski. Mrs. Alfred Grant donated her services in the kitchen. The score cards and prizes were donated for the occasion by Mrs. A. w. H. Smith of Seattle.
 Shortly before refreshments were served an excellent talk was made by FIG, Hanford on the benefit of the hospital to the community. He said that Bishop Rowe's action in raising funds to build the hospital and the subsequent donations for mainte- nance winch amounted to several thousand dollars, meant that he had given insurance to every one in the town and district for skilled care in the event of sickness or accident. MT. Hanford stressed the fact that the hospital had saved many lives during the six years since 1t was opened and mentioned, as one in stance, that just year ago, a little girl, beloved in the community (Georgine Gunderson). was stricken with acute appendicitis and would have surely died before it was pos sible to reach a hospital in another town. Today, thanks to the skilled care available because of the hospi- tai. she is alive and well. This situation. he pointed out, is apt to confront any family at any time and for that reason each person in Wrangell district should liberally support the hospital.
 MT. Hanford then sold the re- maining tickets on beautiful pill low made by Mrs. Neal Mcdonald Miss Etolin Coulter drew the tickets and number IS, the winner, gave the pillow to Mrs. J. G. Grant. The sale of tickets netted ST. This sum, to- gether with the card party proceeds and the donation from Ole Johnson was turned over to the hospital board on the following day.

BASKETBALL BOYS READY
 FOR SEMI-FINAL GAMES

In the last of the preliminary games of the Inter-class Tournament now in progress at Wrangell In- stitute, the Freshmen won a de- cisive game with the Junior-Sen= iors on Wednesday night by a score of 24-14. This game was probably the most spirited of the tournament as 1t decided the team that will play the Sophomores in the high game of the Semi-Finals on Saturday.
 The Freshmen had an 'on" eve ming. The basket seemed to draw the ball to it whenever the Fresh men had chance to release a shot. The Junior-Seniors were unable to hit the hoop until the last quarter when they rolled up nine points in cluding two beautiful long ones by William James, Senior Guard.
 Harvey Williams, Freshman guard and William James, Senior guard, were the outstanding players and personalities of the game. Both boys are regular guards on the school team and it was hard to play against instead of with each other, but they did not tumble the ball once. Fred Johnson, forward, was high man for the Freshmen with eight points, and William James made six for the Seniors.
 Lineups:
 J. Jack (4) F. H Charles F. Johnson (8) F. J. Johnson(3) H. Littlefield co c. R. Bean (4 L. Allen (4 G. L. Roberts CD H. Williams (2) G. W. James (6) Harvey Williams and William James Captains.

SWING WORKING
UPON SOUTHERN
AERMAEL ROUTE

That favorable action will be
taken by the federal government
soon relative to the establishment
of the southern airway is the belief
of Congressman Phil d. Swing, ac-
cording to a letter which has been
received by the El Centro Chamber
of Commerce. Swing states, Il
have continued to press Second
Assistant Postmaster General Clio
yer for the prompt establishment
of the southern route. He advises
that he is in turn working on an
agreement with the American Air
ways to have them begin operation
Of the route to San Diego. There
is, of course, some detail with ref
erence to compensation which must
be worked out, but I am told by
Gen. Glover that he is hopeful of
getting this route started even in
the face of the very grave cuts
that have been made in his depart
ment as in every other department
Of the government"
The southern airmail was orig
inally routed from San Diego,
through Imperial Valley, to Phoe-
nix, but, pending lighting of this
route, the mail has been flown
from Los Angeles direct to Phoe-
nix. The Ell Centric Chamber of
Commerce has prepared resolutions
urging that the route outlined in
the original contract be followed
and Congressman Swing has done
much in Washington to see that
the original contract will be carried
out now that the southern route
from San Diego, via Imperial VAL
ley to Phoenix, is lighted and
ready for night flights.
A number OF resolutions prepared
by the Ell Centro chamber were
sent to various western chambers
and to those of cities along the
route OF the southern air mail, urg-
ing support for the originally des-
ignated route. These resolutions
have been adopted and forwarded
to Washington by the Los Angeles
Chamber of Commerce and the
San Diego Chamber of commerce.
Aid Expected
Leo Hetzel, who represented Ell
Centro and Imperial Valley at the
recent meeting of the aeronautical
committee of the state chamber,
states that that body has a reso-
luton similar to that prepared by
the Ell Centre chamber under con-
sideration and that he gained the
impression that the state chamber
would take action in the matter in
accord with the wishes of the Ell
Centro chamber and others that
have endorsed it.
On a recent trip to Los Angeles
Robert Hays, manager Of the Ell
Centre chamber, called on officials
of the American AirWays in Los
Angeles, and urged that company
to initiate air passenger service
between San Diego, Imperial VAL
ley and Phoenix Immediately in
order that the business built up
by the Century Pacific lines, which
operated through here for a year
prior to their purchase by the
American Always, might not be
lost Hays states that the officials
of the American Airways spoke
favorably in connection with the
reestablishment of the air passen-

PORTER'S NAME
WILL APPEAR ON
RECALL BALLOTS

LOS ANGELES, April IA. UP)-
Mayor John c. Porters name will
be among those to be voted OF
when Los Angeles voters go to the
polls in a recall election against
him May 3, the second district
court of appeals ruled in de-
cision on file today.
The court, in handing down the
decision, denied two petitions for
writ of mandates to compel City
Clerk Robert Dominguez to keep
Porter's name from he ballot.
Petitioners in their briefs con-
tended a provision governing re-
call elections in the state eonsti-
tuition forbid the object of a recall
movement from automatically be-
coming a candidate as provided for
in the Los Angeles city charter.
Attorneys for Dominguez and
Porter were upheld by the court
in their arguments that charters
granted by the state legislature are
exempt from provisions of the con-
Stitution.
AS result of the decision
Porter must only win a plurality
of votes at the election instead of
a majority that would have been
necessary had the court ruled
against him and forced his sup
porters to have filed nominating
petitions.
Coincident with the ruling was
the announcement OF former
mayor, George C. Cryer, that he
had withdrawn from the mayor
atty race. This leaves nine candi-
dates in the field besides Porter.

Simple Observance
Thanksgiving Day
President and First Lady
To Attend Services
Before Dinner.

Thanksgiving day win be observed
very simply by President and Mrs.
Hoover. No plans have been made for
any extraordinary festivity on this oc-
casion other than the customary
Thanksgiving feast, to be featured by a
large turkey gobbler.
Already the President has received
five turkeys from admirers in different
parts Of the country and 1t is likely
that more will be received before
Thanksgiving day arrives.
Lawrence Richey, one of the Presi-
dents secretaries, has during the past
two years produced wild turkey for
Thanksgiving which he shot himself at
the Woodmont Rod and Gun Club in
West Virginia. He has been so busy
this Fall that he has not had time to
go turkey hunting
1t is understood that the President
and Mrs Hoover will attend special
Thanksgiving religious services during
the forenoon and later will have a few
close friends join them at dinner.
