Tazio Nuvolari made monkeys of

if you figure in the cost of all the

CALExICO HIGH
GROOMED FOR
HOLTVILLIANS S

Calexico high school gridderS to-
day went through a long practice
grind in preparation for their game
against the Holtville Vikings at
Holtville Thursday night.
The game will be played Thurs
day night instead of Friday as
previously scheduled. according to
valley league coaches.
CaleXico is the outstanding favor
ite to win Thursday nights game
despite the fact HoltVille defeated
st. Augustine 1912 last week and
the fact CaleXico was able to exc
out only 7-6 win over the Saints
a couple of weeks ago.
The Calexico supporters point out
the fact four of their regulars were
not in the lineup when the Bull
dogs played the Saints, but the
Holtville fans, unimpressed, cite the
ease in which the Holtville gridders
Walloped the San Diego club.
Coach Noval Walker stressed
pass offense in yesterdays practice
and indicated he would instruct his
team to launch an aerial attack in
an effort to upset the defending
champions Thursday night. Walker
also stressed pass defense in order
to be prepared to stop the Calexico
passes which clicked SO smoothly
against San Diego jayvees asst week.

NEW YORK, Oct. 20. U.P-Pa-
triotism. a red, white and blue ami
NAL with a very robust bite, has
sunk its fangs into Mister Bob
Topping, jr.. of New York, causing
him CMr. Topping, not the animaD
to break out in nationalistic rash.
Young Topping was bitten. by
this jingoistic animal at the finish
Of the recent George Vanderbilt
300-mile race, which saw foreign
automobiles completely outclasS
those of American make. The fall
ure OF the American cars to make
decent showing hurt Topping
greatly, and shortly afterwards,
over a Creme de Menthe at the
Stork Club. he thumbled his fat
check book and cried:
This must come to an endi The
Stars and Stripes must fly at the
top of the masthead! Vive LAmer-
icar'
The Stork Club, accustomed to
explosions by brash young men,
didn't even turn its collective head.
But this time the Stork Club was
wrong. Topping was serious. I
know, because on my desk at this
moment is a mimeographed an
nouncement from his Charge DAT
flares stating in black and white
that Topping would build car ca
pable Of 1870 miles an hour with
urhich IN answer the autOmOtIVe
challenge of Europe.
Now there's nothing like the en-
thusiasm of youth-particularly the
enthusiasm of youth with lots of
dough-and I would be the last one
to dampen it. But Topping is
doomed to bitter disappointment
He may build a car, but you may
safely bet your last pair Of pigskin
gloves that the number he brings
out next year will wallow in the
exhaust fumes of the Alfa-Romeo's
