Meets Depression
The depression really hit Brad
dock in 1882. He started auspicious-
~ with a five-round win over Vim
cent Parable and a 10-round de-
feat by Dynamite Jackson, but af-
ter that it was Katy bar the door.
After losing decisions to Baxter
Gaines, Charley Retzlaff, Tony
Shucco, John Henry Lewis and
Tom Patrick, he was knocked kick
ing in six by Lou ScoZza.
In 1888 he won from Martin Le-
vandowski, Al Stillman, Les Ken
nedy and Chester Matin, but was
outgalloped by Hans Birkie, Levan-
dowski (return MATCH, Al Still
man (another return), and was in
a no contest thing with Abe Field
man in dear old Yonkers.
If anybody had named him the
outstanding challenger for the
heavyweight championship at the
end of 1893, there would have been
nothing but laughs. AS he has
done nothing since then save whip
Corn Griffin, John Henry Lewis
and Art Lasky, I think a laugh OF
two is still in order.
OF course, 1 may be wrong
James may have been only kid
ding with those light heavies a few
years ago. The passing of the years
may have given him something
more than 10 extra pounds about
his middle and a few gray hairs.
But boys, I'll have to see it with
my own bright blue eyes.

Auto Magazine

Copies of the April issue of the
National Motorist," " official publica-
tion of the National Automobile
Club. which have been received by
members in El Centro. contain an
article on In-ko-pah Gorge, pre-
pared by the staff of the local
chamber of commerce. The front
cover of this issue contains five
views taken in In-ko-pah Gorge
The article itself is further illustrat-
ed with a photograph Of Shepherds
Bridge and of Superstition Noun
tain as viewed from the gorge.
In commenting upon the article
in the National Motorist,' a con-
temporary editor, Leonard j. Sch
wacofer, Jr., of the Butterfield
Chronicle, states, Both the article
and the pictures are intensely in
tereSting, instilling in the reader a
longing to follow this highway of
romance which leads out of San
Diego on the Broadway of America,
U. S. 80, beginning at sea level, and
ascending by easy stages the In-ko-
pah Range to an elevation of al
most one mile high, and then drop
ping down again to Ell Centro in
Imperial Valley, 50 feet below sea
level. This 120-mile trip has often
been called The Worlds Grandest
Three-Hour Drive" offering as it
does in SO relatively short a time an
unparalleled combination of the blue
waters of the Pacific, the charms OF
semi-tropic San Diego, the citrus
groves and foothills of lower eleva-
tions, vistas of mountains covered
with oak and pine trees, then the
great In-ko-pah Gorge, and last OF
all, sub sea-level Imperial Valley,
some of it still in its native desert
state, most of it intensively cult
yated to lettuce, cantaloupes and al
falfa." AZ
we are exceedingly anxious" "
said w. S. Lee, chairman of the
Tourist and Convention Bureau of
the chamber of commerce, ito
popularize In-ko-pah Gorge and
make it an attraction rather than
The bugaboo it used to be-" For this
reason, the chamber of commerce
conducted a contest and the name
In-ko-pah Gorge was selected to re-
place Mountain Springs grade and
was adopted and approved by the
California state highway commits
sion and so officially designated by
them. "In-ko-pah" was a word of
the Indians, meaning people of
the mountains and it was deemed
particularly appropriate for this
interesting mountain gap which has
been also characterized as the
Khyber Pass of America"

Sixty-fou senators favored extern

The fight over NRA, it was in

Those weeks will bring bitter dis

English Village
Coffee Shop Has

Improvements and enlargements
to the English Village Coffee shop
were made necessary by the splen-
did increase in business since the
coffee shop reopened about two
months ago, according to F.. c..
Martin, who with Mrs Martin is
now operating this popular res
taurant on Imperial avenue.
An additional dining room has
been added to the original room
with tables to accommodate % per-
sons. The new dining room will al
so be available for private parties
upon appointment and is so ar
ranged that it may be cut off from
the main dining room. The old
English type OF decoration has been
carried out, with tables and chairs
in bright contrast.
Mr.. and Mrs. Martin came to Ell
Centro from Los Angeles two
months ago to operate the English
Village Coffee shop, serving meals
continuously throughout the day.
The original counter and tables
were soon found to be inadequate,
but the owners believe that the new
room will make it possible to ac-
commodate the increase in patrons.

DODGERS TAKE
LEAGUE LEAD

NEW YORK, April "a. U.P)-King
for a day at least because his
Brooklyn Dodgers ri6t alone on top
of the National league, Casey STEM
gel today expressed surprise that
any one should question its chances
now of finishing in the first divi-
sion.
To Stengel the answer has been
obvious in nearly every game this
season, including yesterdays in
which the PhilS were annihilated
by - to 5, while the Reds were los
ing and dropping out of the first
place tie.
Were up there because we've
got everything" he explained. "Ev-
erything-hitting, pitching, hust-
ling and headwork."
Cincinnati tobogganed all the
way to fourth place in to 8 de-
feat by the Pirates.
The Cardinals took over second
place on Paul Deans second VIC
tory of the season, an easy to 5
breeze against TIN Chicago Cubs.
The win left the Cards a half
game out of the lead, with the Gil
ants a half further back after a
to thinning win over Boston,
which succumbed in a home run
spree that Babe Ruth missed. He
didn't even get single in three
times up in his gala Homecoming
as Brave to the POLO grounds.
Red Ruffing was batted out Of
the box by the Boston Red Sox
who went on to Z to victory
over the Yankees and remained on
top in the American league with
six out of seven wins.
Vosmik's triple in the ninth
paved the way to Cleveland victory
over the Browns 7 to 6, the win
holding the tribe in second place.
Sad Sam Jones whipped the Tig-
ers for the second time in week
for the Chicago White Sox, Z to 2,
and the Senators bounded back
from their recent series loss to the
Red Sox to beat the Athletics, to
4.

NEW YORK, April 24-This col
umn is addressed to those gentle
men who, in the past week or So
have written in demanding to know
why I am SO positive that Max
Baer vii not only lick Jimmy
Braddock, but will knock the stuff
fling out of him from the second
they ring the first bell until James
is removed more dead than alive.
Gentlemen, I could give you sew
eral answers, but I think the best
one is to be found on page SO of
the 1884 Everlast Boxing Record.
It's there in black and white -
Braddock's record I mean. Let us
look at what James has accom-
plished in the past seven years.
You can go back further than that
if you care to, but about all you'll
find will be a bunch of names like
Walter Westman, Phil Weisberger
frankie Lennon and Carmine
Caggiano.
In 1928, the man who will meet
Baer Tor the WORLDS heavyweight
championship licked Paul Swider-
ski. Jimmy Francis and Pete Lat
20, but lost to Joe Sekyra in 10.
In 1929 James didn't whip any
body. But lots of folk whipped him,
including Leo Lomski, Yale Okun,
Tommy Loughran and Make Ros-
enbloom.
A year later Bradock did a bit
better, managing to gain a 10
round decision over Joe Monte. But
this sterling victory over the ram
paging Monte was overshadowed
By drubbings from Lomski, Babe
Hunt and Billy Jones, and he
wound up the year with a batting
average of 1888.
He maintained this average in
1881. Ernie Schaaf, Sekyra and Al
Gamer beat him, out he got his

There were a few strong spots.
Coca Cola scared 10 points, its

only to turn down again to lows
for the day on reopening, despite
the fact that the report showed a
greater reduction than average eS-
Inmates had held likely. Losses
ranged to 35 cents a bale when
trading was resumed.
The decline of the market re-
flected profit-taking on the al
ready substantial advances in
price scored in anticipation of a
iarge cut in figures. Other con-
4ributory factors were nervousness
over possible Supreme Court abro-
cation of the Bankhead act and
the AAA and the prospect of re-
-duced exports resulting if peace
plans offered to Italy by the
League today should be accepted.
The trade bought on the way down
and Liverpool and Far Eastern de-
mand held up fairly well. The
South, spot houses, locals, wire
houses, and New Orleans were
Aiquidating.
