HOW ABOUT HEAT?

COMBINATIONS of the Associ-
II ated Chambers of Commerce to have
the government include air cooling sys-
TENS in federal buildings constructed in
Imperial Valley is as excellent sugges-
ton.
Those of US who know our Imperial
Valley brand of summer weather real
ize the difficulties of working in July
and August, and anything that can con-
tribute to greater comfort during that
period is certainly money we'll spent.
We take it for granted that something
has also been done about providing heat
for the buildings during the cold per-
iod of the year.
Too often, in building homes and
places of business, Imperial Valley peo-
pie center their minds on the two or
three months when it is hot and forget
almost entirely the several months when
Imperial Valley can be mighty cold, at
least in comparative degree.
December, January and February can
produce plenty of snappy days, when
heat is an essential to comfort and the
winds that usually blow in March and
April have their own way of making
things uncomfortable in the weather
line
The hottest day in the valley can be
made bearable, thanks to the portabili-
ty Of the electric fam But there are
many times when warmth is absolutely
essential to health and comfort and it is
not always to be found in the usual type
Of construction.
We hope that Uncle Sans employees
in the valley will be cool in the summer,
and we hope even more emphatically
that they will be warm in the winter.
Gandhi certainly is promiscuous with
these hunger strikes Some day the
British may take him up on it.

BRUINS PREP
FOR FLORIDA

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 5. U.Pl--
A dispirited band of Bruins from
the University of California at Los
Angeles turned its training guns on
the University of Florida today in
an attempt to regain the morale it
lost over tht weekend.
The Bruins were soundly and
surprisingly trounced by a formid-
able University of w IN hingt n
squad by the count OF 10 to 0. The
defeat in itself wasn't so surpris-
ing as the inability of the Bruin
scoring machine to get into mo-
lion.
The Westwood warriors played
the most disappointing game they
have played during the season
which had been successful in land
ing them in third place in confer
ence standings. Their attack was
broken up consistently and their
line collapsed before the thrusts of
the hard charging Huskie backs.
Art Ahonen, one of the most sem
sationai runners seen at Memorial
stadium this season, and Paul
Sulkosky, carried the brunt of the
Washington attack during its three
successful goal marches. Ahonen
staged a 40 yard broken field can
ter that has been unrivaled here
this year. He later scored the third
Huskie touchdown after Sulkosky
had scored the first two.
The Bruins will leave next Sum
day for Gainesville, Fla. where
they meet Florida, Dec II.

COMMENT ON
SPORT WORLD
BY HENRY McLEMORE
United Press Staff Correspondent

United Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, Dec. 5. = Those
of you who believe your own per-
sonal worry is the last word in
worries, can gain quite measure
OF satisfaction these days by think
! ing of Joe Mccarthy, manager of
the New York Yankees, and his
! worry.
Your worry, if placed on scale,
probably wouldn't weigh fiv e
pounds, if that. Mr.. McCarthy's
; worry weighs 100, stripped. What
is more Mr.. McCarthy's worry has
blue blood, mind of its own and
can argue back.
AS you probably have already
guessed, Mr.. McCarthy's worry is
! nothing less than Charles Devens,
Esq, Harvard 80, who, upon grad
uation, decided to turn his strong
and talented right arm to some
thing more useful land profitable)
than balancing teacups in the lah-
de-lah back bay section of Boston.
Devens is listed on the Yankee
roster as pitcher. He has yet
to prove it unless magnificent
bull-pen windup and a four-hit
victory over the Red SoX is proof
Now, the normal procedure when
a manager wants to test a rookie
or season him further, is to ship
said rookie to minor league farm.
And the fact that this is the pro-
cedure is what's worrying Mccarthy
Will Devens, accustomed to the
best, agree to such a thing as be-
ing farmed out? He wouldn't last
year. When he signed with the
Yankees his contract contained a
clause which insisted he stay with
the Yankees all season, even il
found incapable of throwing a
baseball through an open door at
five PAGES. The fact that his con-
tract contained just such clause
proved that Harvard accent was
not all that Charles carried around
in his head, and that he may be
a tough one to argue with.
And even if Devens agrees to
throw his curves in more plebian
surroundings than the stadium
would Mccarthy be right in send
ing away a man who adds social
distinction to the entire club? Not
every team, you know, can boast
Of hasty pudding man in the bull
pen, real blue-blood to throw 'em
up in batting practice. 1t all boils
down to a battle between the ma
terial and the aesthetic, and you
can we'll imagine the sweat it's got
Mccarthy in.
And there's another angle to be
considered, too. Personally, we
think farming out Deyens would
show a decided lack of apprecia-
ton on McCarthy's part. 1t wasn't
easy for Charles, receiving as he
was but paltry eight or ten
thousand dollars, to step from the
Harvard to the Yankee campus.
Yet he did, sacrificing such things
as breakfast in bed and his five
o'clock tea, without a word of COM
rlaint.. And those of us who are
accustomed to our crullers and java

UNCLE WIGGILY AND KITTIE
KAT'S HOUSE

Once upan a time, as Uncle Wig
gily was hopping over the fields,
thinking he would get Little Bub,
the rainbow boy and take him ad-
venturing, the rabbit gentleman
saw something moving in the tall,
dead grass just in front of him. AS
yet no snow had fallen in Wood
land, near the Orange Ice Noun
tains, wherethe rabbit gentleman
lived in his hollow stump bunga-
low, though in some parts of the
country the ground was already
white with the crystal flakes.
"Oh, hol! I wonder what that
is?" whispered Mr.. Longears, as he
saw the dried grass move again.
1T can't be any of the Bad Chaps,
I'm glad to say, for they are so
tall that their backs would stick
up above the grass and see no
backs"
Uncle Wiggily was going closer to
the waving grass to see what was
making it move when he happened
to think of the Weasel. The sly
/ Weasel, as the rabbit gentleman
knew, was one of the worst of the
Bad Chaps, but he wasn't as large
as the Fox, the Wolf or the Bob
/ Cat. So the Weasel's back couldn't
be seen above the grass.
If it's the Weasel I'm out of
luck" said Uncle Wiggily. And l
guess I'd better turn around and
go home before the Weasel smells
me or sees me-"
But just as the rabbit gentleman
was going to do this he heard a
mewing voice say:
Now I'll try it again. I didn't
have any luck last time, and I must
really learn to be a better catcher. "
"Oh, it is bad chap, all right!''
thought Uncle Wiggily, his heart
beating very fast. Talking that
way about learning to be a better
catcher. He wants to catch mel"
Turning softly on the path, Mr.
Longears was about TO hop away,
when, all of a sudden the wind blew
the grass apart so the rabbit could
look and see what it was making
the tall stems wave and jiggle. And
when he saw Kittie Kat, the pus-
sy girl, why Uncle Wiggily was so
happy he wanted to jump and
shout for joy.
1T isn't a Bad hap at all! It's
just my friend Kittie Katlp chuck
led Mr.. Longears. I'm so glad. But
wonder what Kittie meant about
trying it again so she would be a
better catcher? think I'll just hide
myself down here in the grass and
watch. She hasn't seen me yet and
I can look at her and find out
what she is catching
The little pussy girl seemed to
be very busy. She was SO busy she
never looked toward where Uncle
Wiggily was hiding in the grass
Kittie Kat had something black in
her mouth and she was running
along a little path among the tall
grass stems that the wind had part
ed as you part you hair with a
comb and brush.
Now I'll toss you up in the air
and see if can catch you when
you come down, little mouse" new
ed Kittie.
Before Uncle Wiggily could say
a word, all Of sudden the pussy
girl jerked her head. What she
/ had in her mouth flew up in the
air and turned over and over
Then as it came down, Kittie
caught it in her teeth and joyful
| ly jumped about crying
Il caught you! caught you that
time, little mouse. I'm getting TO be
good catcherl Now III try il
againl"
"Kittiel Kittie Kat" shouted

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.-Sena-

only ones who are girding up their
loins today for a winter OF strenu-
Gus debate.
Their clerks and secretaries, who
sit inconspicuously on the sidelines
during the daily session. will come
into their own tomorrow night
when the little congress" eonvenes.
The little congress- which calls
itself a debating society and
proudly declares its oratory is free
from vote-getting motives offers
the clerical staffs of the national
legislators a chance to assert views
which otherwise might find light
only in the speeches they often
write for their employers.
The body is organized on the
purest parliamentary lines, boast
ing a speaker, a clerk, a sergeant
at arms and a parliamentarian.
In common with the senior legis-
lature, the little congress has it
