OUIMET'S IRON
PRACTICE

MERE practice hitting golf shots
w tends to become un~lnteresting
unless some element OF competition
Is injected into the picture TO re-
lieve the monotony. Naturally q
golfer to overcome weaknesses In
certain shots must practice these
shots painstakingly and regularly
a process that often calls for a con
siderable amount of will power. In
such circumstances II is an aid to
make the practice as difficult as
possible; making hazards lend a
competitive tone TO the play.
For instance, Francis Ouimet as
a youngster used to hit his prac.
tice iron shots TO the green from
behind a tree and In each attempt
try TO hit over the top. Not only
was the element Of height to be con
sidered, but also the length of the
shot In order to land II somewhere
near the pin. In time the former
amateur champion was able to
carry the tree tops in consistent
fashion. This valuable practice
r de shots from the fairway a
much simpler process and left a
rather confident feeling that even
should he land into trouble. he had
an excellent chance of recovering
without taking an extra stroke.

Battled River Flood
During the time the river enter

volved the arduous work of direct
supervision of the battle against
the flood Part of his task was to
cut a side channel on the Alamo to
drain Mesquite Lake. High water
made it difficult to keep the water
from breaking back into the lake
but by dint of unceasing labor and
driving himself harder than he
drove his men. "Scotty" won out.
He directed the labor that sue
ceeded in closing the break in the
river after numerous attempts, and
only his stalWart strength enabled
him TO keep going day and night
throughout the long months the
battle was fought.
He was engineer for the Cali
fornia Development company until
1908 and later took up ranching on
land upon which he had filed west of

of California opens tomorrow in
Ell Centro with headquarters at the

AS this is the first time that FL
Centro has ever entertained state

Many important and we'll known
figures in the state will be present

tions of taxation and finance are
to be discussed, with recommended
tions to the next session of the
legislature, an unusual amount OF
interest is being created through
out the state in the proceedings of
this convention.
In addition to the convention
business sessions, social activities
have been planned for the guests
and sightseeing trips SO that they
may have more complete idea OF
the beauties of Imperial Valley
For many, this is the first time
that they have visited the valley
and at the last convention Carey

HEAVY SLASH
IN NAVY BILL

WASHINGTON, Feb. 20. tUPj-
Ignoring the warning of high rank
ing officers, the house appropria-
tions committee reduced the naval
supply bill $26,271, ,120 today.
This saving, the committee found
will still keep the marine corps at
its present strength, will not i'm
pair the efficiency of the navy but
will neceSSitate wage cuts and the
elimination of many luxuries now
| enjoyed by the admirals.
A 80 per cent reduction in pay
of navy yard employees so as to
equalize government and private
Shipyard pay, is proposed. This cut
will save the government $13,514,-
827 annually.
The bill as reported today calls
for tile expenditure of 1902 ,635 ,021
which is $26,271, 100 less than cur
rent appropriations and $17012,515
below budget estimates.
The danger of weakening the
navy through lower appropriations
during the present state of un-
settled conditions throughout the
world was emphasized by high Of
ficers before the committee.
Economies ordered by the COM
mittee included:
l. Put battlesips and cruisers in
reserve commission as other ships
now being built are completed.
ThiS-knoWn as the rotation plan
is currently applied to destroyers
and submarines for economy reas-
ons and must be extended next
year to avoid enlisted strength and
operating expenses"
2. Reduce direct appropriations,
which must come from the treas
ury, by drawing against the hos
pital fund which is supported by
sailors contributions, by drawing
from revolving fund supply ac-
counts, and by reappropriating old,
unused moneys"
3. Don't fill the vacant post of
assistant secretary of navy for
aeronautics, or other vacancies for
$38,360 savings.
a. Eliminate appropriations OF
treasury funds for movie shows
aboard ship.
5. Cut navy rations from AZ TO
38 cents day. Beans are good.
6. Eliminate extra pay for ad-
mirals aides, reduce naval attaches
allowances so per cent, let the
marines get along without buying
| $4,000 worth of blankets, do less
travelling for a saving of $1,126, 1873.
Spend less for libraries, and for 60
ing across the ocean to view solar
| eclipSes.
7. Use 100000 less than the
budget estimates for purchasing
airplaneS.
8. Limit aviatorS' flying bonuses
to $1420 per man for a total OF
$181 ,999 savings, an action which
will not affect the young men who
risk their necks by flying in al
sorts of weather for so per cent
more than their regular pay, OF
