Declare ChiIds
Death Accidental

NEW YORK, May 20 U.p DIR.
Richard Grimes, assistant medical
examiner, today said the death of
Shirley Evans, 8, whose body was
found beneath a sand pile near her
home, was apparently due to ac-
cident."
An examination of the body in
dicated, Grimes said, that the child
had died of suffocation under the
sand, after falling from an en-
bankment.
The body was found by police
near the debris from an excavation
for new building. Fifty uniform
ed policemen and detectives had
assembled in the neighborhood for
a search.

LAWRENCE-A REAL MAN


Death removed most remarkable fig
ure from this life yesterday when it
claimed T. E. Lawrence, otherwise
Lawrence of Arabia" in England.
Any who believe that real romance,
chivalry and heroic devotion to princi-
pies went into the discard long before
the dawn of our modern day, would have
that belief dispelled by reading the almost
incredible story of Lawrence's career as
told in his book.
Following his graduation from Oxford,
Lawrence, slight and not too husky
chap went out to Arabia as an archae-
ologist. He learned all about the Arabs
while he was digging and studying in
ancient ruins and some time after the
World war broke out conceived the idea
of encouraging the Arabs to revolt from
Turkey, thereby giving that nation and
others in the Central Powers some addi-
tional worry.
He became more Arabian than the
most prominent Arab, speaking their
language, wearing their garments and
winning tribe after tribe to his support
A non-military man, he tied the British
staff officers to their seats by the bril-
liancy of his military tactics and maneu-
vers. They disapproved of him but could
do nothing without him and he soon be-
came the nominal if not actual leader of
the British forces in Arabia.
With certain pledges from England
made to him, he passed these pledges on
to the Arabs, assuring them of certain
guarantees when peace should come.
With the war won Lawrence went to
Versailles with his wild tribesmen and
there became disgusted when diplomats
refused to live up to the promises they
had made. He could fight the Turks
and any others but he could not fight the
willy statesmen who framed the treaty of
Versailles. Entitled to the highest hon
ors England could give, he refused
them all, even to the point of refusing a
personal decoration from the king,
something few Englishmen dare to do.
He retired to private life and later,
though colonel, entered the British
army as a plain private under the name
of Shaw.
He served his enlistment which had ex-
pired only a short time before the fatal
motorcycle accident which claimed his
life
The unfaithfulness lat least as he saw
IT'D of his country to those who had
trusted him, was bitter blow to Lawr-
ence. Entitled to the acclaim of the
world for his brilliancy. he Stunned it
all, refused every invitation and induce
ment to show himself. and walked his
solitary way alone
In death England may have a chance
to give Lawrence the honors he refused,
but the greatest honor it could pay to
him would be to do as he wished-iet
him alone
A truly great character, it is a pity
that his life was thwarted in such tragic
fashion.

REGRETTABLE PENALTY


Sport followers of Imperial Valley,
and particularly those in Ell Centre, will
regret that the California Interscholastic
Federation, the governing body for high
school sports in the state, has seen fit
to suspend Brawley high school from
football competition for a year.
The action was taken as a result OF
protests made for playing an ineligible
man on last years championship team
at Brawley.
The protest. unfortunately, was investi-
gated in Ell Centre, and we say unfOr-
tunately because the team representing
this city was the runner-up in the cham
pionship match. There was no other hon
orable course to pursue when 1t was
found that rules had been broken, and
much as it is to be regretted that the
school had to make the protest, it would
have been even more regrettable to have
kept quiet, and ignore a known violation
of the rules.
High school football competition in
Imperial Valley needs a team from
Brawley high school. Ell Centro has al
ways admired the strong spirit of COM
petition between the two schools and the
absence of this competition next year
will be missed.
Brawley was given chance to clear
itself of the charge made against the
school at the time the county league met
but chose to ignore the meeting and re-
fuse to make any explanation or confer
in any manner with representatives OF
the other valley schools. This is also to
be regretted, for a more frank and CO.
operative spirit on the part of BraWley
officials might have averted such dras-
tic penalty as the c. [. F. has imposed.
A similar attitude, it is reported, was
maintained at the c. |. F. conference last
week.
1t has been stated that valley football
competition needs Brawley 1t is Just as
true that Brawley needs valley nigh
school competition. The course that
school chose to follow has not been the
wisest one and appears to be based on
the belief that other valley schOols-par-
ticularly Ell Centro-were out to get
Brawley, when such is not the case. The
schools ARE interested in keeping high
school sports in conformity with the
rules laid down by governing bodies. lg-
more those rules and chaos in sports will
result. Nobody has desire to see BraW-
lev penalized, for even viewing it on
selfish basis penalizing BraWley means
penalizing every high school In the val
lev. 1t is not the only sufferer from the
CT. F. ruling but better that all should
suffer rather than have high school
sports run amuck over the rules which
have made them desirable public enter
tainment and desirable athletic compe-
tition.
The Press, in common with all sports
lovers of the valley, regrets extremely
the severity of the penalty meted out to
Brawley and hopes it may be possible
even yet to modify it in some way. II
this publication can be of any service to
bring this about, it will gladly do so.
