easiness today for fear his team will
underrate the Bulldogs because OF
the latters' performance against E.
Centro last week.
HOltyille Game
The other game in the valley be-
tween El Centre and Holtville will
choose the cellar team of the con-
ference. According to previous re-
suits on valley gridirons, FL Centro
should win the game by two or
three touchdowns, but with several
regulars slowed down with injuries
and Boyse Palmer actually out of
play it is beginning to look as if the
teams will be on an even basis. One
Of the greatest handicaps to the
Spartans will be their overconfi-
dence and the fact that Holtville is
desperate to win.

LOS ANGELES, Nov. I.
(UP) - Athletic authorities
Of University of California
at Los Angeles today sought
the erstwhile star fullback of the
Bruin football team in the belief
he may be wearing a clue to his
challenged identity on his back.
They were informed that Clos
Shorty Key, who played out his
eligible years with Texas School
of Mines, has scars on his back
as a mementO of a knife wound
he received i'll Texas.
The fullback. known as "R. F.
Ted Key" a brother of Clois. was
ruled ineligible just before the Un-
iverSity of California at Berkeley
game last Saturday pending invest
igation of rumors he is not Ted but
CloiS.
Should scars be found on "Ted's'
back. it was reasoned, the chances
are that Ted" actually is Clois.
The player was sought in vain in
his usual campus haunts. where he
has not been seen since Monday.
A disturbing note among the
L. c. L. A. eollegians, was the state
ment of Bill Spaulding, Jr. son of
the Bruin football coach, that he
had seen a scar on the back of
"R. F. Ted" when they were
both students at Urban academy.
Key at that time remarked he
got the scar lin q knife fight in
Texas" young Spaulding said.
Meanwhile Earl J. Miller. dean of
men at U. c. L. A. was in Amarillo,
Tex. where R. F. lTed) was sup
posed to have gone to high school,
gathering more contradictory teSti-
mony concerning R. F. CTedD Key.
his four brothers and a job lot Of
cousins, to add to the already puz-
2ling story.
Reports from Amarillo indicat-
ed that r. F. Ted Key there,
who previously was quoted as
having said Clois Key was his
brother, explained to the dean
that he is not one OF the five Key
brothers, but cousin.
Earl (Ox) Key, former star at
Southern Methodist university, re-
portedly told Dean Miller he is one
of the brothers. There are two R.
F. Keys. he explained, the one hv-
ing here, a cousin, and the one who
may or may not be at U. c. L. A,
brother.
To c0mplicate matters further,
both were football players and
probably attended the same high
schools, he said. Earl said the
last he heard of Clois, the latter
was playing professional football
somewhere in New Mexico"
Authorities here withheld COM
ment other than saying that in any
event. the fullback will not be in
the Bruin lineup Monday when
U. C. L. A. plays Southern Meth
odist university here.

falls 10 win the semi-firal and

The japanese 5h4Xuma, using MS

losing fall number one, the Tiger
was able to daze the japanese and
apply an arm lock for the second
fall. The Tiger tried hard TO re-

Shikuma went on the offense and

EXPLAINS HOW TO HANDLE
ELECTRICITY SAFELY

WASHINGTON STATE COL
LEGE, Pullman, Oct. Electricity,
like any other powerful form of
energy, may be source of danger
if handled carelessly, says l.. j.
Smith, department. of agricultural
engineering, Washington State Col
lege. Even with 115-volt current
from an ordinary drop cord, one
can get a severe shock if the con-
ditions are favorable.
Bathroom light switches should
be placed so that they can not be
reached from the bathtub. Many
persons have been severely injured
or killed because they reached up
to turn on the light while standing
in water, making perfect ground.
Always stand on a dry board or
rubber mat while working with q
live wire. No one, even good cleo
trician, should fool with live wire.
The best plan is to first pull the
switch, then as an added precau-
ton, take out the fuses and put
The Nespelem tribune. [volume] (Nespelem, Wash.) 1934-1936, 1935-10-30

them in your pocket. Rubber gloves
should be used if one has to work
on a live wire and the gloves should
be tested frequently for leaks.
A severe shock acts on the heart
muscles and the beating stops. Per-
sons with weak hearts are more
susceptible to shock.
1t is advisable not to use electric
appliances on metallic surfaces. Nor
should one have them sufficiently
close to the sink so the user can
reach for the water tap with one
hand while holding the appliance
with the other. There may be some
leakage of electricity on the appli-
ance that might jump through the
body to the tap, causing a severe
shock.
For the same reason, do not 10
cate the electric range too close to
the sink. 1t is possible to get a jolt
by letting the tap water run into
utenSil held in one hand while
turning on the switch on the range
with the other. AS the Indian
says, "No should do"
Be careful of all cords, especially
the one operating the washer, as it
stands on the wet concrete floor in
the basement or Mushroom. When
cords get kinked and worn, throw
them away. The renewal charge is
low.
With reasonable precautions, cleo
tricity is not dangerous form OF
energy. There is no need of having
accidents if one appreciates it's
power and uses ordinary care and
common sense.
