BRADLEY F|LLY.
: MAKING BID
FOR DERBY

The dark and threatening form
OF Black Helen is casting its shad.
ow across the path Of crack three
year-old racers at Hialeah Park,
Fla. The shadow appears so large
and formidable that it may cause
the pick of the division in current
training to rear and stop short in
the run to greater turf glory.
Black Helen, reported in the
pink of condition, may turn out
to be red stop signal.
Other Owners Worried
A horse of only diminutive size,
Black Helen, which sees service
for the veteran sportsman, Col.
e. r. Bradley, has other big.wig
owners worried lest she snap into
her brilliant form Of last year and
run off with the chief winter
prizes in Florida.
She has not yet made an ap-
pearance in competition this year
but is expected to go postward in
the Bahamas Handicap on Febru.
airy 16, a preparation contest for
the Florida Derby. The latter
event, to be run March 9, finds
the daughter Of Black Toney an
early favorite.
Seven Straight
The Bradley filly'S favoritism
hinges mainly on her spectacular
victories last year when she
started off to an unbeaten score
of seven straight, sweeping every
thing before her. However, she
suffered setbackS in her eighth
and ninth starts.
Shortly after her second defeat,
Black Helen was seized with a
throat ailment that forced her out
of competition. Trainer William
Hurley put the filly away for a
period of rest and recuperation.
After several months of idleneSS,
Black Helen was finally put back
in training at Hialeah Park and
has since been going through her
workouts in manner gratifying to
her handlers as well as her huge
public following.
Sharp As Tiger
Hurley expects to have the filly
sharp as a tigers tooth by the
time she is slated to appear in the
Bahamas Handicap where she will
race with the eyes Of the governor
of the Bahamas on her. An i'm
pressive effort in that event will
Justify her favoritism for the
Florida Derby, $4,000 Hialeah
Park headliner. In fact, there is
hardly doubt that her odds will
tumble to almost prohibitive levels
despite the fact she will be asked
to match strides with some of the
best three-year-old colts in current
competition.

VETERANS MUST
PAY AUTO TAXES

SACRAMENTO, Cal, Dec. 9. tU,P)
War veterans must pay the usual
So fee for 1895 California automobile
license plates, but they will be al
lowed $1,000 exemption of the new
state automobile tax which be-
comes effective January l, under
provisions adopted by the state mo-
tor vehicle division.
All other persons will be required
to pay a tax of $1.75 per 500 valua-
ton on their automobiles, in ad-
dition to the So license plate fee.
Veterans, however, whose automo-
bileS are valued at less than $1,000
will not be required to pay the new
tax, provided their total property
valuation does not exceed $4,000
Valuation of vehicles Will be made
by the motor vehicle division and
motorists will be notified by postal
card as to the specific valuation
and the amount of tax they must
pay. These cards will be mailed by
December 20, and in most instances
motorists will then know the exact
amount they must pay.
In order to obtain the exemption,
veterans must file an application
and show their discharge papers
when they apply for their motor
vehicle license plates.

DIFFICULTIES
IR0NED OUT

Difficulties affecting the erection
of an inspection station between
Imperial and San Diego counties
were ironed out at a meeting in
the Imperial county court house
Saturday at which supervisors Of
both counties were present.
The two counties will share in
paying the required sum to sup
plement Works Progress Admins
tration funds allotted to build the
$4,000 station, water and light
plants, garage, and two dwellings.
Supervisors Saturday discussed
the problems of obtaining sufficient
land along the highway which will
permit the erection of the station
across the boundary line of the two
counties. The handling of the neces-
Sary funds and the securing of
water also were discussed.
The so-called ambulance agree
ment which will permit the two
counties to cooperate in providing
ambulance service and hospital
treatment in the case of accidents
on the highways joining the two
counties, was read and will be sub
mitted to the district attorneys of
both counties for approval. When
it is approved, it will be signed by
the supervisors.

LACKOF FUNDS HANDICAPS WORK
OF FL CENTRIC STREET BUREAU

study relating to the control of soil
movement as it effects construction.
Continual heaving and shrinkage
of soil results in damage to pave
ments, sidewalks, buildings and 9TH
er structures.
The swelling and shrinking of
soil is due, mainly, to the moisture
content, according to the report. So
far, no practical means has been
found to control this condition be-
cause the source of the water may
be near the location of movement
or may be at considerable distance
and travel through underground
sand strataS.
Irrigation of street trees in ditch
eS along the curb results in move
ment in pavement, curb and side
walk. Rusted and broken water pipes
of private consumers and irrigation
about foundations cause consider
able damage to buildings and in
some instances to public property.
Precautionary methods may help the
situation, the engineer pointed out,
but probably cannot prevent it.
Increase of expenditures in 1884
35 over preceding years was due to
water shortage which required the
purchase of equipment and employ
ment of crews to haul water for
street trees, the removal of 500 dead
trees, the planting of 1900 new ones,
and a special allotment authorized
by the council for badly needed
pavement repairs on Fifth street
and Broadway.
Imperial Valley press., 1935-12-09

Work of the street department in
Ell Centre was handicapped during
the past year by lack of funds for
maintenance of pavementS, walks,
and streets, according to the an
nual report, prepared by Phillip w.
Knights, city engineer.
The water shortage last year re-
quired that a considerable portion
of the funds be diverted from nor
NAL operations to the purchase of
equipment and the hauling of water
in an effort to preserve the street
trees, the report set forth. In addi-
tion, no funds were provided in the
budget for the purpose of undertak-
ing projects under federal admins
tration and it was necessary to di-
vert funds from normal operations
for use when projects were under
taken.
Equipment Lacking
Lack of suitable equipment Tor
pavement repairs and construction
further handicapped the depart
ment. Pavement must be broken by
sledges and hand drills; patching
and repairs made by ShovelS, hand
rollers, wheelbarroWS and hand
sprays. While the limited repairs a
few years ago did not justify the
expense of an efficient plant and
equipment, the extent and mileage
of the old pavementS now needing
repairs, are too great to be done
by hand methods, the engineer said.
The city should, at the earliest
possible date, purchase and install
the necessary plant and equipment
for this purpose" according to the
report"
Proper plant aud equipment will
permit the city to reSurface any
pavement, make major repairs and
construct new pavement at reduced
cost. AT present no new pavement
may be undertaken unless a major
contract justifies the moving in of
plant and equipment from the
coast, its dismantling and return"
Under an SERA project for the
Improvement of parks and park
ways, the city cleaned all street
parkings, removed approximately
500 dead trees and planted $500 new
ones. The cost of the project was
$1,000.
Avenue Improved
Imperial avenue between Adams
and Main street was improved un-
der another project at a total cost
of $4,502. The project was under
taken and completed under the su-
pervision of the State Highway de-
partment. Ell Centro's share was pro-
vided from the one-quarter cent
gasoline ALLEGATION. Construction of
curbs, drainage structures and grad
ing were included.
The city also authorized the ne
ceSsary surveys, estimates and COM
pilation of data for application for
a Public Works Administration
loan for construction of a storm
drain. The street department spent
considerable time and money pre-
pairing tentative projects based on
anticipated programs of govern
mental agencies.
During recent years the depart
ment has devoted considerable
