Daffy Pitching for Dizzy.

"A MONG other things, Dizzy's de-
~ parture left the local team
without a pitcher, so Paul took
his first turn on the mound. This
was interrupted, however, by his faith
ers decision to continue wandering.
The House of Dean passed through
another of those weird incidents
which mark its history on this par
ticular journey. Paul and Elmer, the
elder brother, and their father picked
up another cotton picker who owned
a small car, and it was customary for
Elmer to ride with this man in his
car and Paul to stay with his father
In another old car.
One day both cars came to a rail-
road crossing. Paul and his father
drove across before a long freight
train rumbled down the tracks. But
Elmer had to wait until 1t had passed. ia
Dean drove right on. and Elmer never
did catch up. But it wasn't serious,
explains Mr Dean. Three years
later, Dizzy found him workin' on a
farm. I always knew he'd show up

BY JAMES B. RESTON,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

ITCHER DAFFY DEAN was not
- . pitcher, nor was he daffy
when Brother Dizzy left the
Oklahoma home and traded
his freedom for a pair of shoes in
the United States Army.
When Dizzy was available, it seemed
unnecessary to have another pitcher,
80 Brother Paul was a shortstop in
those momentous struggles back Of the
Spaulding, Okla, Grammar School.
Then, as now, Paul was content to
be overshadowed by mis- elder brother.
He went silently along with Dizzy on
tramps to the woods, where they made
q game Of trying to hit the squirrels
with stones. He worked with him In
the fields, listened to him boasting at
the Spaulding store" watched him
through his numerous fights. So it
was something of a tragedy to "the
quiet Dean" when Dizzy one day van
ished from the Baltimore farm.

He was only 18 years old then. and
when he reported to Springfield he
was sure that they were trying him
at the wrong position. He hadn't
made the grade as a pitcher at Hous-

in Springfield and was asked to pose
for a photograph in a pitching posi-

Daffy wrote Dizzy about this state
of affairs. And Dizzy decided it was
an outrage Indeed, it demanded his
personal attention: so he went to
Hickey. who was accustomed to these
visits by now Dizzy was willing to
admit that the officials Of the club
knew what they were talking about

DIR. ME4D,S LETTER

The frank and sincere letter from Dr.
Elwood Mead, head of the United States
reclamation service, TO the secretary of
the Imperial Irrigation District. should
convince any doubters in Imperial Val
ley that DIR. Mead has the real welfare
of this community at heart and that one
of the quickest ways of getting con-
struction started on the All-American
canal is by cooperating with him.
DR.. Mead expresses the hope of himself
and his associates that his department
could work in harmony with the direc-
tors of the district and that the latter
would recognize the limitations under
which the bureau of reclamation must
function.
He explained the bureaus stand on
allotment of the canal money to the dis
trict by the Public Works Administra-
tion, pointing out that comparing the
canal project with the Los Angeles aQue-
duct project is not proper one, as the
appropriation for the latter is to be re-
paid with interest, whereas no interest is
TO be charged for the canal appropria-
tion.
"If the canal is to be built by the
reclamation SERVICE he writes, I'VE must
build it in the way we think right. In
that we have to consider the extent of
our operations elsewhere, the fact that
all this work is being done by contract,
and that if this single project were car
ried out in a different way, it would lead
to endless criticism and controversy
He expressed high hope that the dis
trict may be able to reach an agreement
with Coachella on the canal project and
that the Malan suit against the district
may be settled outside the court, point
ing out that the bureau of reclamation
service counsel is cooperating to this ef-
feet
Like all who sincerely desire construc-
tion of the canal to start at once, Dr.
Mead voices his regret that the winter
months are slipping away with no work
being done.
The Press has consistently urged that
the wisest course for the valley to pur-
sue, to the end that the canal work may
not be delayed, is by cooperating to the
fullest extent with DR.. Mead, who has
always been friend of the valley, and
that the surest way to delay the project
is by antagonizing the reclamation bu-
reau.
DR.. Mead's letter only cinches this be-
lief, which we feel certain is steadily
gaining supporters in Imperial Valley

.POUL TRYMEN WARNED AGAINST
ADVICE Of ALLEGED EXPERTS

Warming against "eXperitus' in
the poultry business is given by E.
o. Nice. poultry food dealer at 635
state street, who quotes an articss
in Poultry Tribune by Merton
Moore explaining "eXperitus.'
The article cites a poultry raiser
who culls his flock and calls in an
expert who inspects the culls aid
announces they were afflicted with
coccidiosis.
For every group of culls taken
from the flock another expert IS
called in to advise why they arc
culls and for every expert there is
always a plentiful supply of culls.
The result is a heavy mortality
in the flock and heavy loss TO tEt
poultryman.
AS the result of q 14,000-mile trip
Moore has come to the conclusion
that many of the poultryman's ills
are the result of folly in consult
ing experts who really are not ex-
perts and in reading articles by
more experts" describing the dis
eases of poultry and filling the
poultrymans mind with all sorts
of alarms whenever a chick begins
to appear bit off

to diagnose it correctly and again

There is less mortality in small
