Greene was using as a basis to
compare present day conditions
with. We know business is not as
good in the valley as it was in
1923, but we also know it is much
better than it was in 1882.
Christmas Buying Heavy
Hays states that the chamber
staff made brief survey as to the
Christmas business in Ell Centre
during the holidays and that it was
found that Christmas buying was
heavier than last year in practic-
ally all retail business houses. The
money put into circulation through
the CWA is thought to have had
noticeable effect on last minute
holiday buying, which was brisk un-
til the closing of stores Saturday
night.
1t is pointed out by Hays that
the farming outlook is also more
encouraging than for some time
past. The rise in the price of al
falfa has meant much to Imperial
Valley hay growers and the outlook
is for even greater demand for hay
from this county. The grapefruit
industry is satisfactory so far this
year, the pea harvest lasted longer
than usual and the present outlook
for the lettuce season seems en-
couraging. when we talk to visit
ors from other sections of the coun-
try in the chamber of commerce, +"
Hays states, I'VE realize the sound
ness of conditions in Imperial VAL
ley and we feel that when our peo-
pie like the editor of the Nation S
Business map, make comparisons
with 1882 rather than with 1923
and accept this new basis, all will
recognize and value tie advantages

NAME: YEAR s
LEADERS IN
SPORT WORLD.

NEW YORK. Dec. 26. U.P) =
Make Baer, Elmer Layden, Primo
Carnera-these are the three head
line sports names of 1894, accord
ing to the vote of editors in the
annual United Press sports poll.
The editors were asked to name
the 10 individuals most likely to
dominate the black face type of
next years sports pages.
OF the 1913 editors answering, 80
named Baer, 78 Layden and sc
Camera. 1t is interesting to note
that the worlds heavyweight
champion ranked after the fore
most contender and after Notre
Danes football contemporaries.
Others in the first 10 were Babe
Ruth, 48; Chuck Klien, At; Bill
Terry, a; Helen Jacobs, 43; Johnny
Goodman, 40; Carl Hubbell, 80 and
Denny Shute, 80.
Jimmy Foxx of the Philadelphia
Athletics tied for the eleventh
position with Mrs. Helen Wills
Moody, each getting 81 votes. Sew
eral editors noted that Mrs Moody's
name was omitted because of the
possibility that she might not play.
A football player, Cotton War
burton, U. S. c quarterback, came
next, with 26 nominations, and was
tied by Fred Perry of England,
holder of the United States tennis
championship. One vote back was
Gene Sarazen, former golf champ
ion of the two continents, with Is
votes. Ellsworth Vines, once the
greatest name in tennis, received
but 16 votes, although one far
western editor said he would have
named Vines if he hadn't turned
professional.
A California editor insisted that
Ruth rated among the first 10.
