Joe Savoldi hailed as one of the

head the card at the Ell Centre
Athletic Club Friday night.
One of Savoldi's most spectacular
plays while at Notre Dame occurred
in a game against Southern Meth
odist in the midst OF the Irish
great winning streak.
Southern Methodist was leading
Notre Dame 14-l3 with less than
three minutes to play.
Rcckne turned to Joe and said.
Zoe 20 in there and win this ball
game" Savoldi jumped up threw
off his sweater and dashed into
the game.
Less than three minutes to play,
Southern Methodist ball in mid
field fourth down, eight yards to
90. The Methodist quarter faded
back to kick and get off a nice
punt that went out of bounds on
the 3 yard line. The Notre Dame
fans groaned, it looked like the ball
game was over.
However a minute later these
same fans were cheering them
selves hoarse. On the first play
from scrimmage Savoldi took the
ball off guard, fought his way
through the secondary defense be-
hind nice interference and then
travelled 81 yards to touchdown
and a Notre Dame victory 20-l4.

the coveted tennis title of Imperial

After checking records of all
teams I predict the final score to
be - Ell Centro 3 matches, Calexico
3 matches and Brawley ! match.
Calexico will take boys second
singles, girls doubles and mixed

boys first singles, and both girls

tue Of a close win over the CAL

Where Is the Evidence?
And yet where Is the completely con-

that the Chief Executive has ever really
caught a fish? He is surrounded by
picked and trusted guards, by aids, by
press agents. Is there a single objective
witness who can testify that tarpon or
boneflsh were dragged from the deeps
by his own hand? Even the dispatches
are guarded in reporting this signifi-
cant detail. When the Austrian mon
archy fell revolutionary souls stepped
forward to destroy its glamor and pres
tige. And it was publicly ayowed that
not all the antlers decorating the
hunting lodges Of the Hapsburgs were
the fruits Of the royal rifle. It was
