OVERTIME GAME


In an overtime contest slowed

triumphed over a team representng
Cox Brothers grocery, 81 to %.
This contest was one of two
scheduled commercial league games
at Central gymnasium last night.
The Imperial Valley Hardware's
five defeated General Petroleum
80 TO 20 in game which proved dull
beside the other thrilling affair.
Enthusiastic Group
Overenthusiasm on the part of
the creamery boys in the initial
contest sent two of their number
TO the showers by way of the four
foul route. Twelve fouls were call
ed on the team
Hood Littlefield, tall center for
the creamery. was probably the
most outstanding man on the floor

was IN possession of the bows from

Cox Brothers led their foes nv
four points at the half but were

When he read the recent ruling of
the United States Golf ASSOCIATION
against free and unhindered lit
erary output by amateur golfers
For as surely as the golf asso-
clatlon prohibits golf players from
approaching the typewriter and
1oolscap with pure abandon. other
sports bodies are going to do the
same. And then, I ask YOU. where
will American literature be?
In striking at athletes, the golf
association has struck at the very
foundation head of American lit
erature, for ii is on the field of
athletic endeavor that literary
inspiration is born. IL is amaz-
ing how athletic proves and the
ability TO write limpid Il almost
said limping), prose goes hand in
hand.
Lawson Little, the present ANA
teur golf king, is a sterling ex-
ample. Two years ago, when he
was bound for England and the
first of his tremendous successes
on the fairWay and green, Lawson
had no idea he was a writer.
remember him walking into my
cabin one day while I was knock
ing off five or six hundred words
Of my deathless prose, and ex-
pressing amazement that I could
keep this up day after day.
He little thought then. that two
years later he would be doing
column And doing it as easily as
he bangs a brassie pin high or
putt for birdie. And those four
titles he won in succession kindled
the inspirational fires, and now
he's talking of doing a book.

1t is to be hoped that restric-

fessional athletes, for from their
nimble fingers each year comes
what many critics consider the
finest examples Of American es-

writings made it possible for Amer

Jim eyed the speaker coldly, as

Hayward had used. Still In an even
voice he said:

"Ha! Nor any other night. I've

had not lowered his voice during
this colloquy. Those people in the
rear of the room had heard most
of what he said, and they were look
ing on now in mingled curiosity
and apprehension. The dance-hall
girl who had pointed out Jim whis-
pered excitedly to her companions.

"Bahl You rat! There's only one

his open hand to slap this object of
contempt, but the blow did not de-
scend; he did not finish his SEN
tence, for suddenly his face was
deluged by the binding, scalding
contents of Jim's coffee cup. With
an exclamation he reeled backward,
almost into the arms of the women
at the piano. He dashed the liquid
from his face; with his sleeve he
wiped his eyes, cleared them; he
gathered himself to rush upon the
figure still sitting motionless upon
the high stool. But one of the girls
flung herself upon him, twined her
arms about him. and in a voice high
pitched, vibrant with warning, she
cried:
Don't touch him, Hayward
He'll kill you'll God, man, that's

Hayward's struggle died sud-
denly. 1t came still-born. Into his
purple face crept a look of aston
ishment, then incredulity.

Third Instalment

SYNOPSIS :. Jimmy Rowan was
hopelessly in love with Rose Morris,
the prettiest girl in Dover, Michigan.
OF course; that was years ago. in early
school days d. but 1t was hopeless for
Jimmy because he was just "that Ro-
wan kid" desperately poor, while
Roses family was rich. While Jimmy
was working his way through college.
Rose Morris moved away and the
home sold for barely enough to pay
the mortgage Jimmy vowed to
Rose. Easier vowed than done and
years passed before Jim Rowan finally
Ea1 vide in tne repStaon as
known as THE Michigan Kid"
On his way out at Nome. Rowan
came upon a meeting of Michigan
folks scheduled so he attended. There
he came upon Hiram Morris, old, worn
and hungry. Morris, with his daughter
Rose, is prospecting claim. Rowan
hires as helper and goes out to the
claim, ordering supplies sent. From
Rose he learns of the fathers struggle.
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY.
Nogales international., 1936-12-12

Jim had made 1t a practice never
to go into town for fear of recog-
milton, hence it was Hiram who
made the weekly trips for mail and
for the necessary purchases. One
day while he was in town it began
to snow and during the afternoon
this snow turned to rain and sleet.
The old man returned about dark,
quite wet and chilly. He was a
long while getting warmed through
and later in the evening he COM
planned of feeling badly and went
to bed.
Jim was awakened during the
night by knock on his door. 1t was
Rose. In a tone that instantly
brought him to his feet she told
him that her father was i'll and that
she was frightened. Throwing on
his clothes, he hurried to the larger
cabin. Hiram was burning up with
fever; he coughed almost continu-
ously; he was in pain. Jim an
nounced at once that he would go
for doctor.
"Ill send somebody up from the
Bonanza camp" he told the girl,
because l won't be able to get
back before morning"
Rose turned eyes dark with ap-
prehension upon him. Hes very
i'll, isn't he? He woke me up NUT
tering. Hear him-2 It's all about
landing in the paw"
I'm afraid he's a pretty sick man.
There's medicine case somewhere
among my things. Look until you
find it. And don't allow yourself
to become panicky. Be a brave
girl, Rose" He laid a hand upon
Roses shoulder-it was the first
time he had ever touched her ex-
cept by inadvertence-and there
was such sympathy, such comfort
in his gesture that tears wet her
lashes.
ooh, Jim!" she cried. you're a
dear. l don't know what I'd do
without you"
Young Hayward was in Nome,
but Jim got one of the Bonanza
men to go to Roses assistance and
also he borrowed a horse for him
self. 1t was not many miles to
town, but it was a wretched night
and he was glad when the animal
wallowed out of the icy mud and
he felt the plank pavements under
its feet The first doctor he found
was i'll; another had been called to
Fort Davis; the third was engaged
on a confinement case, but promised
to accompany Jim in perhaps two
hours. There was nothing to do
but wait.
Jim was wet and cold. He
stabbed his horse, returned to the
main street, and entered the first
saloon he came to. 1t was late;
there was nobody at the bar, but
some of the games were still run
ming and there were a few figures
at the lunch counter in the rear.
Thither Jim made his way in search
of cup of coffee.
There was a stage at the end of
the place where, in the earlier hours
of the night, vaudeville show was
given, and at the piano were gath
cred several weary women of the
dance-hail type. One of them saw
Jim and spoke to her companions,
