would be empowered to reduce
the gold content Of the dollar,

It could be phrased, too, to au'

currency at any rate. between two

This was the rule in the flex.

by the Supreme Court.
Senator Pittman said:
Congress can delegate power
to the President to act within
certain limits. Such q delcga-

abandonment of its cOnStitu-

SOUTHWEST GOLFERS GETTING

Eyes of the southwest's crack am
ateur golfers began to turn to I'm
perial Valley this week, looking
toward arrangements here for the
annual southwestern golf tourna-
ment at the Barbara Worth coun-
try club March 1926.
Greens and fairways nipped by
recent hard frosts are rounding in

Howard Jones of Holtville, tourn-
ament chairman, arrangements are
being completed for an extensive
program of entertainment for visit
ors, as we'll as for the meeting

REAL FIGHTS
OFFERED FANS

Believing that fight fans prefer
to see real matches between boys
who are willing to trade punches,
instead of paying out money to see
a boxer with a Dig name meet a
palooka, the Imperial Valley Ath-
letic club has arranged a card for
Friday night with no stars on it
but with each match guaranteed to
be a real battle.
Alfred Austin and Pete Bantista
who put on a furious six-round
draw two weeks ago. hold down the
top spot on card of six round
bouts. This pair is well matched
and each is anxious to break the
dead-heat decision of two weeks
age.
In the second spot is AL Ger
hardt, who gave Young David a
tough fight two weeks ago, with
Numbering" Wilson of Yuma as
his opponent. Wilson has been lay
ing them flat over in Yuma and is
known as a knockout artist.
Fred Carrillo and Kid MunoZ are
also DoOKeQ 10 put On q real DdL-
tie. Munoz is another Yuma bat
tier and Carrillo has been showing
up well on San Diego fight cards.
Romo Fernandez, the Brawley
schoolboy who has developed big
following here, meets Ben Solomon
Of FL Centro. Each of these boys
has a wallop and both are anxious
to use it.
Welterweights will open the show
with Ray Vincent of Holtville TAX
ing on Ray Favo of San Diego.
Officials of the club have re-
duced prices to meet the fans

card that maens fight from start
to finish, instead OF Iancing step
ping and wind paving, according to
the promoter.

CHAMBER AIDS
HAY GRADING

Protest has been made by the El
Centre Chamber of Commerce
against discontinuing the Federal
State hay inspection office which
serves Imperial Valley under the
direction of Roy Wood. It was
learned that, in fhe interest OF
economy, the discontinuance of this
office was considered and the cham
Der staff Immediately took steps
to see that such action was not
taken.
A letter from the chamber to As
semblyman Samuel E. Robinson in
Sacramento, urging him to use his
efofrts TO have the local hay in
spection office continued, received
a favorable reply. Robinson states
that he will introduce a bill con-
solidating the grain, rice. bean and
hay inspections, which will place
all inspections on a self supporting
basis as all revenue will accrue to
the department of agriculture and
the total grading bill paid by the
state will be reduced. Senator Ben
Hulse has also assured the El Gen.
tro Chamber that he will work
against any attempt to eliminate
the hay inspection, and, further,
intends to support the bill to be
introduced by Robinson, which he
thinks will make better inspec-
ton system for all of our staple
farm products.
with half of the irrigated area
Of Imperial Valley planted to al
falfa hay" states Robert Hays,
manager of the El Centro Cham
Der, that crop becomes one of our
most important farm products.
This chamber has been active in
assisting hay growers of this COM
munity to organize for the purpose
of marketing local hay and We are
now actively working with those
interested in increasing shipments
from San Diego harbor in order
that We may open up new markets
on the Atlantic seaboard for I'm
perial Valley hay. With wider hay
markets in view and a concerted
effort being made on the part OF
the growers of this community to
market comparatively, it would work
a great hardship to the community
were hay inspection here to be dis
continued at this time. The or
ganization is therefore bending ev-
cry effort and contracting as many
persons as possible to see that such
action is not taken; and Robinson's
and Hulse's letters are very en-
couraging."

MILLER KEEPS
FEATHER TITLE

LOS ANGELES, March l. Up
Freddie Miller, Cincinnati, is still
the world featherWeight champion
in those states which recognize au-
thority of the National Boxing as
ISOLATION. He kept his right hand
in the face of Baby Arizmendi,
Mexico City, throughout the entire
10 rounds of their title bout here
last night to win clean-cut de-
cision before 10000 fans.
The gallery boys, mostly fellow
countrymen of Baby-face, were
furious at the ruling of Referee
Harry Lee and pelted the ring with
bottles, fruit and chairs. 1t was the
widest scene recalled in modern
California ring history. A man and
a woman were knocked unconscious
by bottles, and AriZmendi himself
was nearly crowned by a flying
flask.
While the Cincinnati youth COM
pletely outboXed AriZmendi, the
southpaw champion looked bad at
some stages of the game when he
was on the run trying to eVade Ar
izmendi'S bull-like ruSheS. Ariz-
mendi was missing, however, when
it appeared his blows were reach
ing the mark.
Miller was credited with winning
the first, fourth, sixth, eighth and
tenth rounds, with only the third
even. Arizmendi outpointed the
champion in the remaining rounds.
Miller opened a cut over the
Baby's eye in the sixth, and was
accused of butting.
Miller weighed 125 pounds and
the challenger 1851.
Arizmendi's attempt TO gain the
title was the first time a Mexican
had competed for recognized
crown since Joe Rivers fought Ad
Wolgast here 81 years ago for the
lightweight crown

MINOR SPORTS
FEELING PINCH
BY KENNETH ID. FRY
United Press Staff CORRESPONDENT


CHICAGO, March 1.-Gone are
the good old days of lavish finan-
cial layouts, provided by football
and basketball, to take care of
minor and non-paying sports in
the western conference.
Hand-to-mouth methods of rails
ing funds to carry on minor sports
are the vogue in various Big Ten
spots, and apparently no way OF
raising money is considered insig-
nificant, a United Press survey
showed today.
Wisconsin is renting space on the
crew bulletin board to sporting
goods stores to aid in carrying on
rowing, which has been relegated to
the status CT an intramural sport.
The tennis team at Illinois staged
a professional net exhibition invol-
wing Big Bill Tilden, the funds to
be used to help defray expenses OF
the racket squad.
Minor sports at Purdue are aid
ed by contributions from students
and the Gimlet club, athletic boost
er organization.
All sports at Iowa must be self
supporting, rules the athletic board.
The senior class has donated $3.50,
profits of the junior prom, to the
athletic department. Baseball and
track men have arranged a series
Of four dances, the profits to be
split between the squads.
In general throughout the Big
Ten, teams are travelling by auto
mobile, except when the distance
is prohibitive or would work hard
ship.
Schedules have been drawn up
with an eye to travelling costs. Long
jaunts have gone into the discard.
Spring training trips for baseball
squads have been cancelled Sal
aries of coaching staffs have been
cut, and in some cases several
coaches have been dismissed. Track
Coach Harry Gill of Illinois will
take a leave of absence next year,
to save the amount of his salary.

representative of the southern di-
vision of the state chamber of COM
