The new system of making left
turns, which has recently been put
into practice on the Square, bids
fair to expedite traffic consider
ably if understood by all drivers.
The method is very simple, just
follow the arrow and white line
which points in the direction which
you desire to go, keeping, of course,
on your right side. of the line.
This eliminates the necessity of
bears, turning left at the same time,
going around each other in the

having t wait for each other. So
from now On just disregard the

VETS
To AID WORK
Of RED CROSS

Prominent Ell Centrans are en-
dorsing the annual Red Cross roll
call and the following statement is
contributed by Charles A. Bratton.
commander of Boyce Aten post,
American Legion.
In five years of economic de-
preston and partial recovery Red
Cross has given direct relief to one
out of every five persons in the
United States. As an ex-serVcie
man I appreciate its great service
to the sick and disabled veterans
and their dependent families; its
efficient help IN the problems of
disqualification, claims and general
welfare. At no time during the
past 10 years has there been need
for intelligent and intensive work
more pressing than during the last
II months.
The economy act of 1893 result
ed in the elimination of thousands
from government veterans payrollS
and in the midst of an unemploy-
ment crisis thousands who had de-
ptiIueQ 1Ol yCdio upoii SoiiifISAASs'
ton and pension were rendered
helpless and desperate. The dras-
tic reduction in hospital and med
ical treatment privileges threw
back on local communities serious
problems. To act in such stress
has been the part of the Red Cross.
This service is made possible by
the popular support of the annual
roll call drive. You support is ur-
gently asked.

Although the Calexico Bulldogs
outplayed the highly-touted Holt
vile Vikings last night, Coach
Glenns men had to be content with
6-6 tie, which in the border city
is considered a moral victory.
The Bulldogs effectively bottled
up Morgan, star man for the Vik-
ings, and prevented him from get
ting started on any of the plays
which have made him just about
the outstanding player in valley
football this year.
Calexico made first down II times
to four for Holtville and had al
most double the amount of yard
age from both scrimmage and
passes, keeping the play in Holt
Vile territory the greater part of
the game.
Holtville scored in the end of the
third quarter and looked winner
until Calexico broke loose in the
fourth and matched the score, nei-
ther side being able to convert.
Peck of Holtville featured the
game by intercepting Calexico
pass on his own 10-yard line and
running it back to the Calexico IL
yard line.

United Press Staff Correspondent
PRINCETON, N. j., Nov. 17.-As
much as I love its hours, I may
have to quit this sports writing
business to preserve my sanity.
Things are entirely too topsy-
turvy.
Last night I sat in Madison
Square Garden and watched three
young gentlemen, one a champion
of the world, whale the living day
lights out of their opponents, only
to have the judges blithely award
the decision to said opponents.
And here I am today in Prince
ton, surrounded by thousands of
people who with perfectly straight
faces, are going about expressing
the opinion that a team they ad-
nit is weak CYale) will give a team
they admit is amazingly powerful
(Princetom a terrific battle.
That doesn't make sense to me.
What makes them think the Yales
are going to give the Princetons a
duel to death? Is it because the
Yales looked silly against Colum-
bia, sillier against Army, and none
too bright against a Georgia team
that has nothing much in large
quantities? Or is it because Yale
has one good backfield man to
Princeton's ten. two good linemen
to Princeton's 25?'
Mind you, I'm not saying Yale
won't give Princeton a hell of
scrap. But it certainly won't come
as a surprise. I have seen them
both, and from where I was sit
ting Princeton looked anywhere
from four to eight touchdowns bet
ter. The way I look at it, Prince
ton can't help but score an easy
win. They've got everything good
team needs-power, speed, aggres-
siveness, condition, replacements
and fight. The Tigers are three
deep in the line, meaning they
have two able reserves for every
starter, and heaven -only-knows-
how-deep in the backfield. Yale's
only really classy back is Quarter
back Roscoe; Princeton has Ked-
lie, lie Van, Constable, Spofford,
Roulon- Miller, and half a dozen
others.
Of course, Roscoe may go out
there and cutplay them all, but l
don't see how anybody can foresee
that. Yet that's just what the
boys and girls are doing here to-
day. Even Fritz Crisler Princeton
coach, is singing the blues, and
talking about being supremely sat
isfied if his club wins by single
point. He has even gone to the
trouble of equipping his squad with
the left hind legs of rabbits. He
figures they will need them to win.
| Today's game, which will be play
ed before $4,000 customers, will an
sWer one question = just how good
is Princeton. If, as Crisler pre-
diets, the Tigers are driven to the
limit by Yale and barely win, you
can be sure that all this talk OF
their being on a par with Mime
sofa, Alabama and the country's
other powers, is just a lot of ma
larkey. To prove their right to
such rating they must tear Yale
apart-Win by a score in the neigh
borhood of that 81 to IA trouncing
Yale handed them in 1881.
My guess is that the Tigers will
be shooting to avenge that 1881
slaughter. And that they will come
pretty close to achieving it. If I'm
wrong, just send along five dollars
in stamps and sooner or later,
you'll get my explanation
