VETS
UNEASY OVER
ROOKIE

Any player over whom two
clubs clash seems to have a
strange appeal to old fans. That
was the case in the career Of
George Sisler, who was the prop
erty of the Pirates, but who was
allotted to the Browns to develop
into one Of the greatest stars in
the game. At the time OF the
row Sisler was an unknown to
the everyday fan.
Down in the Tigers camp the
playing of Chet Morgan is at
tracing no little attention this
spring, because the Phillies almost
obtained this young player by
draft, although he was the prop
erty of Detroit.
1t had been the plan of the De-
troit owner to let Morgan tarry
another season at Beaumont,
Texas, to improve his fielding.
AS a hitter there was no ques-
!. ton about Morgan, so when draft
time came the Philadelphia
agents put in a slip for him, and
he was awarded to them.
Navin Is IncenSed
Owner Navin was incenSed at
the action of the Phillies, and he
offered evidence that the Texas
Lacquer was the property of the
American League champions.
Once forced to show his hand,
Navi1l told Morgan to report this
year.
The arrival Of Morgan at the
training camp meant little to the
regulars. That he led the Texas
League in batting was we'll known,
but his fielding was believed to be
too crue for him to alter the gar
den trio of Goose Goslin, Pete Fox
and Joyner White.
Morgan was among those re.
cruits ordered to show their stuff
at the bat early. The first ball
he sent speeding over the heads
of the infielders made Manager
Cochrane sit up and take notice.
Goslin waited until the youngster
hit the second one with that merry
sound so dear to the hearts of
those who like power behind the
batter'S swings.
SCARES GOOSE GOSLIN
"Who is that guy?" GOslin
asked Cochrane. "I'll bet he'll
make those infielders Of ours sit
up and listen to the report of
that ball ringing off his bat"
"He'S no infielder," answered
COchrane. "He's an Outfielder
and he can hit"
"Why don't you trade him?"
mOaned Goose. Hes going to
break into that garden Of ours
as sure as you are a foot high"

CONSUMPTION
OF ICE CREAM
SHOWS GAINS

Ice cream consumption fluctuates
in sympathy with general economic
conditions In the boom year of
1929 commercial ice cream manu-
facturers turned out more than ESQ.,
100000 gallons. BY 1888 production
had shrunk to less than 150,000,000
gallons. BY 1884 it was back to
nearly 180,000,000.
Ice cream making is one of the in
dustries that provides market for
dairy products, and as result both
the United States department of
agriculture and the various state
experiment stations are interested
in many phases of the business.
There is considerable literature"
on ice cream making available free
or at small cost from these sources.
The federal department has 10
printed and mimeographed pub
lications and recently listed nearly a
hundred publications issued by state
experiment stations. These range
from simple and practical directions
for making ice cream at home to re-
search studies into chemical and
archaeological phases. In addition,
there are many books and several
periodicals dealing with the in
duStry.

Hosts At Pretty
Christmas Party

One of the prettiest Christmas
parties was that at which Mr.. and
Mrs. William T. Livingston enter
tanned friends and relatives Christ
mas day.
The table decorations were I'M
usual and lovely, the work of Mrs
Liyingston's daughter, Miss Meryal
Meadows. A modernistic tree of
gold cellophane formed the center
piece and surrounding it were many
tiny packages in cellophane, from
which streamers radiated to the
places. When these streamerS were
pulled, the packages unrolled and
were found to contain amusing for
tunes.
The entire table appointment was
in gold and blue, a gold colored
cloth and topaz service making a
stunning picture.
Guests were Miss Marjorie Cas-
sou and John CaSsou of Escondido
Mr.. and Mrs. G. p. Denney, Miss

Mounted Policemen
Best for Traffic,
Chicago Maintains

CHICAGO. U.D - The man on
horseback, the forgotten man" in
many metropolitan police depart
ments, is maintained in Chicago
because he commands most respect
from motorists, according to Capt.
David I. Flynn Of the traffic divi-
sion.
Get man on horseback out
in the street and people instinc-
lively slow up" the captain main
tains.
That's why there are 996 mount
ed men in his division.
"And for restoring order in a
riot" he said, there is no sub
stitute for a plunging, rearing
horse in the hands of an expert
rider. From the high elevation OF
his saddle a policeman intends to
be obeyed, and no back talk.
The blame for the gradual re-
treat of the mounted man lies
with the machine age, according
to Capt. Flynn. And he has one
other complaint against the ma
cine age too:
There aren't many Irish farm
ers any more"

Ancient Pottery
Provides CO[OrS
For New Fashions

LONDON, Dec. &c. WR)-Colors
from pottery made by men who
died 1000 years ago will adorn the
hat of fashionable Miss 1886.
For the past few months, r. F.
Wilson, of the British Color Council,
has been working at the museums
in South Kensington, adopting sub
tie shades from Chinese vases, many
of them dating back to 200 B. C.
Now he has produced a new color
card with "a colors, most of them
Chinese, for millinery in 1886.
Here are some of the colors, TAX
en- from the pottery of ancient
China:
Coolie, an unusual type of SAKE
blue which the coolie Of China dyes
his clothes with to this day.
Corn stalk, a golden yellow with
which the Chinese loved to decor
ate their beautiful vases.
Mandarin blue, made specially in
Yorkshire for export to China.
Ruby, the red of the precious
stone, taken from Chinese vases.
Lotus bud, delicate pink, the
same color as the flower.
Faience blue, pale blue of the
type known to the Chinese as "sky
after rain"
Tropic red and sail red, two
iron rust" colorS.
"The Chinese were masters of
color" Wilson declares. II have
spent a long time, with the kind
assistance of the museum authori-
ties, matching up my colors."

KING GEORGE
MAKES PLEA
FOR PEACE

SANDRINGHAM, Eng, Dec. &C.
U.P)-With all Europe talking of
threatened war, King George to-
day made a plea for peace to his
500,000,000 subjects in the British
empire.
The king, speaking over a radio
hook-up that carried his words to
the seven continents, praised the
unity of his far-flung imperial
family and urged it to remain at
peace with the rest of the world.
ut is good to think that our
family of peoples is at peace in
itself and united in one desire
to be at peace with other nations
the friend of ALL. the enemy of
none," he said
Todays address, one of the few
which the king actually writes
himself, climaXed his jubilee year.
1t reached approximately enc quar-
ter of the worlds population over
what probably was the longest
radio hook-up in history.
II wish you all, my dear friends,
happy Christmas" the aging
monarch began.
It have been deeply touched by
the greetings which in the last
few minutes have reached me from
all parts of the empire. Let me in
response send to each of you a
greeting from myself"
The king spoke from the small
study of Sandringham palace. His
voice was firm despite a usual
slight huskiness and an occasional
cough.

The house was beautifully DEF

Yuletide celebration.
This year many FL Centre host
eSseS entertained their friends in
this way Christmas, inviting them
to drop in during the day to share
their Christmas cheer.
DR.. and Mrs. Forrest E. Kutz and
John Kepley were among those

a handsome silver pheasant.

1t is to be hoped, at any rate,

PUBLIC POWER
MEANS SHARP
RATE CUTTING


At a recent meeting of the I'm
perial Irrigation District board Of
directors attention was called to
he many advantages brought
about by the public ownership of
utilities. the greatest Of which is
the reduction of rates charged con-
sumers of electric energy under
municipal ownership.
Attention was also called to the
fact that in cities which have tax
en- over the distribution of this
rate reductions have followed i'm
mediately and in many instances
these reductions We're substantial.
AS proof of this a bulletin on
file at district headquarters shows
that with the advent of public
ownership in the following cities
the per XVIII, rate for power was
lowered as follows: Cleveland.
Ohio, from Is to 3 cents; Seattle,
from 20 TO 5 cents: Springfield,
H., from II to 6 cents; Winnipeg,
Man, Canada, from 20 to 3 cents;
London. Ont. Canada. from 9 to
IL cents: Pasadena. from IS TO 5
cents; jamestown. N. Y, from 10
TO 5 cents: Ottawa, Ont. Canada,
from Z to / cent; Lincoln, Neb.,
from u to 5 cents and Toronto,
Ont, Canada, from to IL cents.
It was the opinion of the dis
trict board that corresponding de-
creases in power rates will be eff
fective here if the district retains
in its own hands the entire dis
tribution of all power from the All
American canal
