COATS WILL
SUPPLY FOOD
BY LEICESTER WAGNER
Press Staff Correspondent

LOS ANGELES, FEB. 22.-De-
scendants of goats liberated on
Santa Catalina island 300 years ago
by Spanish traders will fill the
empty stomachs of Southern Cali
fornia's army of 100000 unem-
ployed, according to plan being
completed here today.
From a few hundred head of
domesticated animals, left to roam
on Catalina's rugged peaks when
the SpaniardS moved to the main
land, the herd now has increased
to nearly 10000 animals, wild and
wary of man.
Turning this way and that in
the search for food for hungry
persons, the unemployed co-opera-
tive relief council, representing 80
units, decided the goats would fill
the demand for meat.
Already vegetables are being OBJ
tanned from farmers surpluses; the
county milk arbitration board Sc
cured the surplus milk SO badly
needed, but meat has been shy.
Business and political interests
co-operated with the relief units.
The estate of William Wrigley Jr..
late chewing gum magnate, which
owns Santa Catalina island, 20
miles from the mainland, agreed
tc the plan.
Of the islands estimated popula-
ton of 10000 goats, half will be
rounded up in corrals by a band
of 200 hunters The county live
stock bureau and the state meat
inspection department will coop
crate in the establishment OF
camps.
The goats will be shipped TO the
mainland on barges.
Local packing houses viii con-
vert them into meat without
charge The relief oo-operatives
will distribute the meat to their
members. The goats, dressed, will
average go pounds each, it is be-
heved.
The goat meat, ii is pointed out,
is clean. highly nutritious, tasting
somewhat like mutton, although of
a more gamey flavor,
Sportsmen sometimes pay high
license fees for hunting these ami
mails.
The camps will be made perma-
nent, and as long as is necessary
the goats will be hunted

FLOOR OPENER
To HOYAS

Three thousand fans are talk
ing about the Georgetown Uni
versity basketball team today.
Many more are probably listen
ing and forming ideas for them
selves.
For the Hoyas opened their
floor campaign last night at the
Tech gymnasium by defeating the
ern-Maryland five, 80 to 9,
in a game that had its peculari-
ties.
First, Georgetown looked
ragged, plenty ragged at the start
of play. Western-Maryland, in
comparison, appeared IN good
form.
Finally Get Going
But shortly after, Georgetown
began getting better and as the
minutes progressed ran up such a
one-Sided score that Western
Maryland couldn't have threat
ened dangerously had the oppor-
tunity presented itself.
With it all the Hoya five
looked as if it needed one or
two more games before becom-
ing the smooth working combi-
nation heralded to be. The
Mesmer-coached team made mis-
takes-three or four of 'em, but
they probably will be ironed out
in another two weeks when the
season will have decidedly gotten
on it's way.
Ed Hargaden and Jerry O'Con-
nor led the home lads in the i'm
portant matter of scoring. The
former developed a keen eye for
the rims, once the entire team
began scoring, as he shot seven
baskets and one foul for Is
points. O'Connor pushed five bas-
kets into the rims and one foul
for II points.
Cumberland Held
Probably Western Maryland'S
failure to make it some sort of
contest was due to the fact that
Frank Cumberland, star forward,
and former Central High School
performer, was held at bay like
a pig in a pigpen. The young
ster failed to score throughout
the evening despite the fact that
he played an excellent floor game
otherwise.
