CREDULOUS JUROR.
~ OBERT G. MACCARTEE, official

court investigation which disclosed
what he believes to be the worlds

awarded a woman 2,400 damages IN

the question Of the amount of the
damages was before the jury. the de-
PENDANT having failed to appear to
answer the suit.
Several members Of the jury rode
home together in the same automobile

the credulous one.
Gee, I hope they locate the de-
PENDANT in that case so the woman
can collect her $2,400," one of them
said

credulous juror. 1--WE gave her a

"Oh, no, it isn't!" was the reply.
Don't you know that If the defendant

will have to make up the $4,000 for
the woman?"
Honest? Say. don't let my wife

WEST DEFEATS
EAST'S STARS
Warburton Shining Light Of
Annual Shrine Contest At San
Francisco

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 2. W.P)-
Every thrill in the football book
was unwrapped before $1,000 fans
yesterday when the West defeated
the East, 10 to 13, in the tenth an
nual Shriners' Hospital charity
game, the big parade of All-Amer-
lea football talent.
The victory was the seventh in
the series and the third in a row
for the players culled from the
graduating classes of schools west
of the Mississippi river.
It was a game in which brilliant
individual feats over shadowed
team play and in which the small
est player on the field, 147-pound
Cotton Warburton of the West, was
the biggest hero.
The West scored its touchdowns
on blocked kick, a 7l-yard run by
Warburton, and an alert recovery
of blocked forward pass. The East
counted on long run by Bill Shep-
herd, highest scorer in the nation
| in 1884, and another miraculous
catch of forward pass.
The battle was only two minutes
old when Ray Fuqua of Southern
Methodist blocked an East punt
Jim Barber of U. S. F. picked up
the ball and ran II yards for a
touchdown The West failed to con-
vert.
| A punt brought the East grief a
second time in the same quarter
This time Munjas of Pitt quck-
kicked to little Warburton on the
West 30. The cotton-topped speed
ster raced straight downfield duck
ing under the clutchng arms of the
opposing tacTSlers for the second
touchdown. Again the try for point
failed.
West Scores Again
The West picked up its final score
in the second period when Sobrerc
of Santa Clara threw a20-yard pas
intended for Fuqua. An Eastern
back DETECTED the ball and Ca
Clemens, U. S. c. back, caught il
and stepped a yard across the goa
line. This time Fuqua converted.
The East, with 13 men who ratet
All-American mention in its array
snapped out of its daze in the thirt
period. Shepherd started them OF
their way with 39-yard sprint tina
saw him break away four time
from tacklers to turn in touch
down. The try for pont failed. Il

NEXT MONDAY

With the holiday spirit definitely
behind them, the Arab basketeers
of Central Junior college settled to-
day into an intensive grind
preparatory to their meet here
next Monday with Gila junior col
lege.
Though the Jaycee players have
not shown any sensational streaks
of ball-playing thus far this sea-
1 son, they have won majority of
their games, with a lott to San
FDiego State as the chief entry on
the debit side. They have been
practicing throughout the holidays
and won by good margin in a
recent scrimmage with the high
school.
Gila junior college, with no foot
ball season to occupy its attention,
has been concentrating on basket
ball since last September and,
from all indications, should furnish
tough opposition to the Jaycees.
Following the gameS with Gila,
Coach r. R. Taylor has scheduled
a game with Yuma high school, for
which no definite date has been
set. This game will be played in
Yuma and after that, on January

HONOLULU, T. H., Jan. 2. U.P)-
University of Hawaii won it's most
important intersectional game yes
terday by defeating the hapless
University of California gridders by
a 14-0 score.
Hawaii scored twice in swift
thrusts in the first half and then
STAYED off two desperate touch
down drives to make good their
victory.
The first touchdown represented
41-yard march, covered by two
passes, one from Furtado to Piltz
for II yards, and the other from
Furtado to Gonzales for the touch
down. Piltz converted. After the
teams changed sides for the second
period, Archer of California fum-
bled on his own 15-yard line and
Hawaii got the ball. On the first
play Ahuna, Rainbow halfback,
crossed the California defense on
reverse play and ran unmolested
across the goal line. Piltz again
made good on the try for extra
point
With Capt. Arleigh Williams
leading the drive, the visitors
marched to the Hawaiian two-yard
