Hopkins explains il thus:
First you go N TO see the Presi-

FIND that you are Just one of 2
dozen officials who also have trou-

his shoulders and still remains
calm and confident.
Then you leave the Presidents s
office and are surrounded by news
paper correspondents. They ask
you questions and you begin 10 feel
important again. About that TINT
someone else comes out and the
newspaper reporters walk off &c
talk with him and leave you stand
ing there.
THAT is sure to deflate anybody.
Hopkins has no illusion about his
job.
Nobody likes the dole, least o.
all the unemployed, he said.
He would like to see permanent
unemployment insurance, old age
pensions and homestead gardens
or other means used TO care foi
those who can never hope TO have

OF international stars today as play
started at the Los Angeles tennis
club.
Fred Perry, English ace who cap
tured the United States singles
championship at Forest Hills last
week, headed the parade of visit
ing net artists. Teamed with Har-
old Lee of England, Perry was
matched in an exhibition doubles
tilt against Johnny Van Ryn and
Jiro Satoh, Japanese wizard, on the
opening program. The schedule to-
day called for playoofs to determine
candidates who will meet eight
seeded Americans and nine seeded
foreigners in championship play.
Ellsworth Vines, former national
singles champion, was seeded No
on the American list. Perry was
similarly pegged among the foreign
entrants. Other seeded players for
the mems singles in the order

SHARKEY BOUT
MEETS DELAY

CHICAGO, Sept. Is. Un)-The
Jack Sharkey-King Levinsky heavy
weight fight scheduled for Com
iskey park tonight was postponed
today until Monday because OF
threatening weather.
CHICAGO, Sept. 15. U.n)-Jack
Sharkey, hoping to accomplish what
no fighter ever has done-regain
the heavyweight championship
takes his first step along the back
ward trail tonight when he meets
King LeVinsky in 10 round bout
at Comislley park.
Sharl,ey will fight for $4,000 and
in hope that a victory will bring
other bouts leading up to re-
turn engagement with Primo Car
nera, who dethroned the Boston
sailor with a knockout Two months
age. Levinsky, pride of Chicagos
west side, may get little or moth
ing as his share. He is gambling
that a victory over Sharkey will
lead to fight with the champ
ion.
Both fighters have trained dill
gently for tonight's struggle. Those
who have watched Sharkey for the
past two weeks believe he is in a
fair way to fight with most of
his old time ring cleverness. If he
keeps his head in face Of Levin
sky's eccentric, awkward, free
swinging but terrific punches, he
probably will be able to master the
former fish peddler.
Levinsky undoubtedly is in the
best shape of his career. What
effect his boring in style of fight
ing will have against Sharkey is
problematical. Levinsky will take
five blows for a chance OF landing
one, and if this two fisted free hit
ting style gets on Sharkey's nerves
the bout may turn into an old
time alley fight.
Sharkey, who will be 80 next
month, will weigh about 200 pounds.
LeVinsky, who has just turned 23,
probably will scale about 202.

cover portions of the main highway ar

Announcement that the contracts have
been let is doubly good news for the val

BR4ULEY WON IT

There comes d time when the law of
self-preServation makes it necessary to
take drastic action, and Valulng our hide
considerably, we hasten to follow the
fundamental law and set readers correct
on history as it applies to Imperial Val
ley football.
An article in last nights issue cred
tied Central Unions Spartans with VIM
ming the valley championship last year.
Discovering the error after it was too
late, the intervening time has been spent
in prayer that Lou Beason. editor of The
Brawley News and Art Leahy, coach of
the Brawley "Wildcats,' don't read it.
Ii they do there will probably be new
engineer at the head of this column
thereafter.
Be it therefore known hereby, that the
Brawley Union high school football team,
known as the "Wildcats,' won the Impe-
rial Valley championship for the 1882
season. Not for worlds would we inten-
tionally rob them of glory which is just
ly theirs and we prove it by giving this
conspicuousneSs to our correction and
humble apology. So honest are our in
tentions that we are not even going to
mention where the Spartans did wind up
in the standing.
If this doesn't get US off scot free there
Just amt no justice in the world.
Readers, please bear in mind that we
write of 1892. As for 1933-''we live in
