He died at 3:15.
Murray was driving his car back
from Holtville where he had been
with Charles Ferguson, of Fer
guson's Electric shop, when the car
ran out of gasoline. The two men
hailed state grader for assistance.
With a can of fuel in his hand
Murray stepped from behind the
grader directly into the path of
Hume'S machine. Hume said 1t
was impossible to stop or swerve in
the short distance. He is not be-
ing held.
Ferguson accompanied Murray to
the hospital in a car driven by
Daniel ONeil, Holtville, whom he
hailed. 1t was found at the hos
pital that both of Murray's legs
were broken along with his collar
bone and possibly his left arm. He
suffered two deep gashes on the
head and face, possible internal in
juries. and may have a fractured
skull, according to DR.. c. S. Brooks,
who is in attendance.
Paul Brown of the highway pa
troll, Frank McCaslin of the sheriff's
office, and Frank Smyer of the
police department returned to the
scene of the accident with Fer
guson. Their preliminary examina-
ton absolved Hume of blame.

BEARS LOOM AS
GRID LEADERS


Riding the crest of the greatest
football glory it has enjoyed since
the days of the late Andy Smiths
wonder teams" University of Cali
fornia's Golden Bears looked south
ward today and saw it's little half
brother. the U. G. L. A. Bruin as a
threat to halt its victory march.
From the Bears point of view, a
victory over U. G. L. A, aside from
the paternal necessity to dominate
its offspring, would mean merely
that California had cleared another
hurdle on the way to it's first con-
ference title in years.
AS the Bruins saw the picture,
however, a Saturday victory over
California in Los Angeles huge
Olympic Stadium would mean vir-
tual assurance of U. c. L. AS first
football title.

ian base of Mt. Mussa Ali. A Sec
ond attack was made next night on
a column of infantry. artillery and
tanks moving westward of Mt.
MuSSa Ali.
1t was reported that the Italians
sought to establish an air base on
the desert probably in the Alala-

MuSsa Ali.
The Italians now west of Mt.
Mussa Ali. the base at the corner
of Ethiopia, Eritrea and French
Somaliland, number $4,000 mixed
regulars and native troops, it was
estimated.
There were indications, previous
ly limited at, that the Italians
sought to cross the desert and join
the northern force now north of
Makale. Experts believed the y
faced an impossible task.
The Italians apparently are NOV
ing from Mt. Mussa Ali to estab-
lish a base further west because
they we're forced to trace a route
within 200 feet of French Somal-
iland, and an incident was feared.
Italian troops invaded Ethiopia
to establish the base even before
the northern offensive VIII i h
marked the start of the undeclared
war. 1t was their first invasion of
Ethiopia since they occupied Ualual
and Gerlogubi, where clashes oc-
Cured which were the oStenSible

The Mt. Mussa area has been
quiet except for occasional raids by
the fierce desert tribesmen, known
for their ferocity and the fact that
they never cucumber themselves
