Wanted: Clean Campaigns

Few American citizens desire dirty politics. The av-
erage voter wishes clean, clear cut campaigns, without
personalities and abusive argument
This applies not only to the national campaign but
to state and local races as well. The candidate who de-
sends to cheap abuse does not deserve your vote be-
cause his temperament is entirely unfit to represent the
community he is supposed to serve. He will reward
friends and punish foes which is not the ideal office
holder for a government which is supposed to operate
for the benefit of the people.
Intelligent voters, however, discriminate between
personal abuse and legitimate criticism of official
misconduct. Any candidate has the right, (and duty, to
speak out plainly in regard to the shortcomings of his
opponents. Only by a clear cut statement of abuses and
misdeeds can correction be administered. No intelligent
man or woman of Plentywood will be mised by the art
full howl of a corrupt politician, who, when his official
record is hung out to public view, begins to whine about
personalities" and clean campaigns"

~Flyblowing the Churches

Every once in a while you run up on a citizen of
Plentywood who tries to impress you with the broadness
of his religious viewpoint by taking a few pot shots at
the churches of the nation. The speaker will tell about
helping other human beings in distress, and exhibit every
sign of superiority over those who worship in organized
churches in the name of their religion.
1t is rather seldom that these takers realize that
without the organized churches of the past it is highly
improbable that they would know very much about re-
ligion. Ii is worse than that. Without the organized
churches of the past it is doubtful if our present civifiza-
ton would be even vaguely as good as it is. The critics
of the church are quite willing to accept the fruits of its
work, but they are not always Just enough to give credit
where it is due.
If you haven't taken our advice before we still insist
that a good way TO get along in life is to read a good
book once a week, even if it is the same book.
Thinking is more forceful than dynamite but don't
TOOL yourself that an explosive won't wreck a lot of
brains.

Rough and tumble.


That old wrestling phrase can
be brought out just one more time
today because it pictures the Dean
Detton-G George Koverly match at
the Arena last night to perfection.
The boys really put it or"
First, Koverly entered the ring
with his left wrist in bandages.
Detton knew what was coming. but
If he didn't he soon found out, as
Koverly continually rubbed his
tapped wrist across Detton's eyes.
Detton finally forced the
referee to stop the bout until
Kovely removed the bandages.
Then came the greatest part of
the tumbling. Koverly threw Det-
ton out of the ring and on the
latter's return sent him Sprawling
with blow on the head.
This brought all the ferociouS-
ness in Detton's makeup to the
core. He jumped up and hit
Koverly with a flying tackle and
ended the battle then and there
while 1890 fans roaded in excite
ment. The time was 20 minutes.

set that Joe in lower case. A.
chances in lower case: second
On the principle that a blind
hog will find an acorn now and
then, it may be said that some Of
those guys named Joe are going
to win ball games occasionally.
They are going to look good now
and then, but their names are
Joe. The woods are full Of them.
So are the minor leagues.
Starts Monte
Bucky Harris started his noble
experiment of April % against
the Yankees by starting Monte
Weaver. After a very short while
he called upon Ken Chase. The
drop of the curtain indicates an
interlude Of two innings. Enter
Joe Bokina. Again the curtain
and then Jack Russell. More cur
tain and Henry Coppola.
Bokina and Coppola still are
wearing their own ears, AS for
the rest Of those guys named Joe,
they are. sadly mangled. Well,
the lesson of it all is that If a
leopard can't change its rosettes
and Bob Ripley insists that
they're rosettes and not spots
pitcher named Joe can't change
his fast ball.
Weaver and Russell threw per-
feet home run balls. In each in
stance two Yankee hired men
were on base and the fans at
Yankee Stadium cheered long
and loud. Perhaps in some re-
mote day and age. some Caspar
Of the Bronx will relate the story
of the famous victory of April %.
Caspar will have to blush bit
when he tells of the Yankee
Blenheim. Charley Rufftng started
the game and had to be rescued
by one Ted KleinhanS. Maybe
Ted's name was Joe, but he rated
q capital "J' on this perform
ance. He stopped our bozos dead.
Well, practically dead.
For a few minutes your very
optimistic reporter thought, and
even hoped that Ken Chase
would win his name, tho way the
Indians won theirs. He pitched
two innings that were all right.
In fact they were fine. And then
he reverted to type.
OStermueller Hits Buck
Now lest it be charged! that
this writer is captiouS and unfair
about this pitching situation, we
must start with Buck Newsom's
game in Philadelphia. The door
mats of the American League
scored four runs off of the Harris
vile Breeze, who must be rated
as the No. / hurler of our team.
Well, your team if you want
them.
It was tough luck that one
game was lost on April 20, when
the Red Sox looked just as bad
as a team which has already
conceded the championship to
itself, can look. Newsom followed
with q loss to Boston when
Ostermueller doubled with q
couple of men on the lines. Now
when Ostermueller can double
with two men on the lines, I
claim it is time to start viewing
with alarm.
Add to this the fact that
Linke failed to finish the game
which was charged against Rus
sell, and you have plenty to view
with alarm.
Pete Appleton is the Griff
pitching choice for the game to-
day, and if he pitches back to
his game in Boston, all will be
swell. But if he pitches back to
his last game with the Yankees
all will be something else again.
If Appleton does not pitch, it
will be up to Earl Whitehill.
Joe Kuhel with a homer and
a single figured in the Washing
ton scoring and Buddy Lewis with
three hits was active all day.

RULO INJECTOR
AIDS ECONOMY
OF CAR ENGINES

The Rulo automatic injector, now
being introduced IN FL Centro, was
invented recently by Los Angeles
mechanic seeking a device appli-
! cable to gasoline engines which
would give increased fabrication to
the upper cylinders, thereby in
creasing economy performance and
adding to motor life.
Working through the intake
manifold, he found, at the end of
his experimentation, that he had
originated a device which accom-
plished far more than he expect
ed. The device injected colodial
graphite, the only known lubricant,
it is said which will not break
| down under the intense heat, into
the upper cylinders. In addition to
developing supercharged efficiency,
he found that he had eliminated all
hard carbon, valves which needed
grinding were seating perfectly, and
rings which were inclined to stick
were completely free. On top of
this gasoline and lubricating oil
mileage was increased to As per
cent, it is claimed Due to elimina-
ton of heat and friction, motor life
was materially heightened.
He placed a number of these de-
vices on cars operated by mechanic
friends where they would receive
understanding tests and received
flattering reports, according to the
Rulo Co. of Los Angeles, now mar
keting the product.
The Rulo Co. has made it a point
to secure outstanding representa-
tation everywhere. Ed Seaton. re-
Gently distributor of Beacon gaso-
line, has been appointed distributor
for Imperial county. The first in
stallation is located at Barney's Re-.
pair Shop, So. 4th st. at City Limit,
Ell Centro. Rulo service will be OBJ
ened at other convenient locations
soon.
