To Tangle
On Friday

Kiman Kudo, who is well
on his way to a title match
against Vincent Lopez, will
tangle with Billy Sledge in
the Ell Centro City Limits
arena Friday night.
Both wrestlers are clean fighters
and according to John Contos this
match will probably be the clean
est as 1ell as the hardest fought
match that has ever been witnessed
IN Imperial Valley.
Kiman Kudo. smallest top notch
er in the wrestling game, plans to
use his wits to white the heavier
Sledge down to his weight.
Sledge hopes to use his flying
dropkicks to an advantage in Fri
days battle and should he be able
to hit the elusive Japanese grap-
pier it'll be curtains for the orien-
tai mailman.
IN one o. the feature bouts on
the card George Kondels, who will
engage in the first match in the
United States. will take On Everett
Ribbons.
John Contos. matchmaker, in an
effort to make this weeks card
even better, contacted Kondels,
who halls from Greece. the minute
he arrived in this country and
signed him up to battle Ribbons.
Won Matches
Kondelis boasts an enviable rec
ord in Europe and has won wrest-
ling tournaments in nearly every
country on the continent In a
match against LondoS held in
Athens several years ago, the
Athenian held Champion LondoS
for two hours and four minutes.
Bronco Valdez. considered one of
the greatest Mexican Wrestlers in
the world, barring Lopez. Aill at
tempt TO pin Jerry Monohan in a
grudge battle that will be equally
as good as the main event. Valdez
in his only start against Lopez
held Vincent to a close victory and
stood more punishment from Lo-
pez' famed elbow smash than any
man to meet the champion.
Monohan. however. is a great
battler and if Valdez tries to stop
one Of Jerry's droOkicks he will
find himself lying flat on the can
vas.
In one of the most colorful
matches ever seen in the valley
Casey Columbo will tangle with
Harry Jacobs. Jacobs is a 300
pound brute and is noted for his
rough tactics and foul play in the
ring.
He will meet his match in Col
umbo, no Sever, for Casey is one
of the few grapplers that can adapt
his style to counteract any type of
attack.

Warming
BY Il. KINNE

Many outstanding athletes of
Central high and junior college
have come and gone in the last
few years, but each one that has
gone out to fight the battle against
life still fondly recalls the name
of Red Hurst, patient. hard work
ing cleaner upper" al the high
school gym.
Red, as he is affectionally called
by the students, is the best friend
OF every athlete or would-be
athlete of the high school and J.C.
Besides taking care of his duties
in and around the building Red is
always ready to accommodate one
OF the boys by wrapping up an
ankle (and he can sure do iO or
doctoring a bruise.
When one of the fellows comes
into the shower after practice and
is feeling low, Red knows just how
to pull him out Of the dumps with
a few encouraging words and
little fatherly advice.
Many times a reticent freshman
or a mighty senior stop Mr.. Hurst
and ask him for advice in the'r
troubles and Red is always ready
TO give them a couple minutes o.
his time TO help them along.
Then there is always the un-
grateful mug that takes advantage
of the privileges afforded him and
pulls stunts that would try the
patience of Satan himself but Red
always controls his temper "a
mighty good thing for the smart
aleck as the janitor is no weakling
and weighs around 1901.
Many a night when the high
school and junior college athletes
are using the gym. Hurst sacrifices
the privilege of going home early
to let them play a little longer. and
generally it is not until these boys
graduate from school that they
appreciate what Red has done for
them.

WHO ARE lie HAPPIEsT?

This question was asked by an Eng.
Iigh newspaper, and prizes were of
fered for the best answers. There
were four prize winning answers:
"A craftsman or artist whistling
over a job well done"
"A little child building sand cas-
ties"
"A mother, after busy day, bath
ing her baby"
"A doctor who has finished diff.
cult and dangerous operation and
saved a human life"
No millionaires among these, says
Sunshine Magazine. One notices no
kings or emperors. Riches and rank,
no matter how the world strives for
them, do not make happy lives. A
sand castle does that far better
than a palace 1t would be sad day
on earth If only the great could be
happy. But happiness is for every
body, not for a few.

HOUSE GROUP
TO MAP D. {.
MEASURES

Although virtually no import.
ant District legislation actually
Is pending before it, the House
District Committee met today for
the first time this session and
began mapping its course for the
year.
Despite the lack Of left over"
problems, several members entered
the meeting today with PROPOSE
lions which are expected to stir
considerable controversy as the
session proceeds.
Airport Question Up
Representative Jennings Ran
dolph CD, Of West Virginia,
chairman of the District subcom-
mittee which last session handled
the airport bill, hopes to settle
this dispute quickly this session
by obtaining the support Of the
House District Committee for the
proposal of the Department Of
Commerce to build two airports
for the District with WPA and
PWA funds. He was prepared to
sound out the COMMITTEES on this
question today.
Another timely question which
he and Representative Virginia
Jenckes Cd Of Indiana, hope to
preSS early in, this session is that
concerning communism In the
local as well as other schools.
Both have expressed themselves
favorable to a congressional in
quiry into this matter, although
Representative Mary T. Norton
CD of New Jersey, chairman Of
the. committee, has asserted she
believes the matter could better
be handled by the local school
board.
Plans Racing Bill
Although she has not yes intro
duced the measure, Mrs. Norton
has announced she will make
every effort to have a horse race
legalization bill enacted during
the present session of Congress.
She probably will wait until after
the bill is introduced to bring
this matter before the committee.
Left over from the last ses-
sion and slated for committee
action today is the beauty cul-
ture" bill, providing for the L.
cenSing and regulation Of beauty
shops in the District. This
measure is sponsored by Repre-
sentative James Quinn CD Of
Pennsylvania, and is expected
to meet with the approval Of the
House District group.
