In connection with this, the let

ing arrests are up 81 per cent;
reckless driving, 8 per cent; rules
of the road, 20 per cent, and mis-

These figures, Vallejo said in his
letters, indicate that the activities
of the patrolman are responsible
for a noteworthy decrease Of fatal
accidents on rural highways, the

the daily application of Christian
Science was issued today at the an
nual meeting of The Mother
Church, The First Church of Christ,
Scientist, in Boston, Massachusetts,,
by the Christian Science board of
directors.
Church officers in their reports
divulged marked growth of tn c
movement throughout the world,
and increased demand for the writ
ings of Mary Baker Eddy, discover
er and founder of Christian Sci
ence.
George Wendell Adams, speaking
as chairman of the board of direc-
tors, stressed the need for interest
not only in problems of individuals,
but also in the general welfare of
the world. Truth and Love hold
guard over the whole world as well
as over the minutest occupant of
it," the directors said
Referring to Me new Christian
Science publishing house which in
creased demand for Christian Sci

Adams asserted that while whole
some activity in the movement con-
tinues, the putting up of buildings,
however beautiful and necessary
they may be, does not in itself lay
the foundation for spiritual en-
lightenment so essential to meet
the demands of humanity. To be
enduring, growth must be the re-
suit of earnest, active spiritual ef-
fort"

Unequalled Performance

Has Placed NORGE in
Undisputed Leadership in
Imperial Valley

"NOrge" has proven that Imperial Valley
homes require more than large promises
and bold statements to provide adequate
refrigeration.
In all sections of the valley thrifty
housewives are turning to Norge for this
surplus power that produces more cold
than ever will be needed in Imperial Valley
summers.
Such remarkable efficiency combined with
Norge convenences has placed this ultra
modern refrigerator far ahead of the field
in 1885 sales for Imperial Valley.
This definite preference for Norge in

the toast Of Broadway, where she
was known as one of the most
beautiful women ever to be glori-
fled in the Follies, Helen Lee
Worthing, an entirely different
Helen Lee Worthing, pleaded
guilty in sunrise court last week
to charges of intoxication.
Police said they found her sit
ting on curbstone singing, in
Ocean Park.
Her beauty nearly gone, her
eyes dim, her clothing terribly
cheap, Miss Worthing sat a short
distance away from the other
women prisoners, chiefly negroes
and Mexicans, and listened in
tently to their pleas of guilty and
to their sentences meted out by
Municipal Judge Joseph Mar
chetti.
She was wearing a cheap blue
gingham dress, flat-heeled white
oxfords, no stockings, an expen-
sive black and white coat. Her
bonde hair, worn slightly long,
hung in ringlets that appeared
badly muSsed. The sleek coiffure
of the Helen Lee Worthing Of
Broadway was missing.
Her beauty has faded noticeably
since her separation from her
negro husband, DR.. Eugene c. Mel
son, for whom she forsook the
stage.
When her case was called. Miss
Worthing stepped hesitantly be-
fore Judge Marchetti and in re-
Sponse to his question, "How do
you plead?" she answered dis

But her voice failed her when

Is Garbo Ready
Quit?

HOLLYWOOD, April 81 UN.S0
What Of Garbo's future?
Greta Carlo is making her
final picture under her present
contract with Metro Goldwyn-
Mayer. She likewise is celebrating
the tenth anniversary Of her ar
rival in America as an unknown"
In the 10 years since Maurice
Stiller, long since dead, brought
the shy but beautiful and brilliant
Swedish girl to the United States,
she has scaled the cinematic
heights but remains the same
enigmatic Carlo.
She has variously been reported
as purchasing a castle in Sweden
and preparing to go on the stage
in Europe, but Hollywood believes
that as long as she continues to
rank as a foremost screen attrac-
ton, Garbo will make pictures.
Whether she will sign new con-
tract with M-G-M, studio execu-
tiveS are unable to hazard even a
guess. Garbo alone knows the
answer and she has yet to hint
whit it will be.
Will she retire permanently to
enjoy her fortune? Only Garbo
knows the answer.
Will she marry? She may-f
she retires. She once said: II
cannot see how marriage and a
professional career can be mixed"
Garbo's loneliness may have an
important bearing on her future.
Frequently she has displayed
q genuine longing for her home
land-Sweden. Twice she obeyed
the urge to go there, but each
time hastened to return to Holly
wood, the only place in the world
she has been permitted to enjoy
her self-inflicted solitude un-
molested.
Carlo has carried 20 pictures
to heights Of success.
In her decade on the screen
she has introduced more fash
ions than any star-has been dis.
cuSsed more in newspapers and
magazines Of the world than any
other film celebrity.

Buddy Still Unproven.

THESE questions are being asked by
those who were impressed by the
magnificent figure and punching
power displayed by Buddy in his one
round knockout of Frank Wotanski in
. preliminary to the Louis Camera
bout. But Buddy cannot, by any
stretch of the imagination, be classed
with the Levinskys. Laskys, Retzlaffs
or even with unknowns like Ford
Smith or Eddie Hogan.
Buddy's string of quick knockouts
was snapped by the veteran Babe
Hunt 1t was the first time he had to
60 four rounds. Since then the set
ups have been 50 poor that those who
have seen many promising fighters
ruined by the methods followed in the
case Of young Baer think more harm
than good is done by such tactics
There is some talk of matching
Buddy with Camera. The Italian
proved In his bout with Louis that he
was miscast as a fighter. He is dis
pirited and might prove an easy VIC
tim of Buddy's wallop. But nothing
is sure in the fighting game, and should
Primo thrust his long left in Buddys
face and discourage the youngster it
might mean the end of another prom
Using career.
Some fighters mature more rapidly
than others. They pick up the fine
points of the game naturally. Defense
seems to be second nature and that is
what makes a flghter-dealing out
punishment without taking much in
return. Joe Louis looks as though he
was born with a pair Of gloves on his
hands. Buddy Baer does not. Baer
has yet to show his worth against real
competition.

After several trips to the canvas. Louis
came on with rush to capture the de-
cision. His manager then decided to
shoot the works by matching him with
Stanley Poreda, Charley Massera and

their own with Steve Hamas.
Managers who send a comparative
novice in the pro ranks against sea-
soned fighters are usually called
money-mad or crazy. Louis proved
his managers were neither by uncork-
ing the punch that was to raise him
close to the top of the heap by crush
ing Primo Camera in his twenty
fourth professional fight.
Louis was schooled and coached
properly by Jack Blackburn. Buddy
Baer came under the guidance and
counsel Of Brother Max and Ancil
Hoffman, an old hand at the game.
Will Buddy Baer live up to the pre-
dictions made by his brother? Will
he be the next heavyweight champion
of the world? Is he capable of scoring
