Consider the case of David Doll.
This young man has ridden for
days through the whining bliz-
yards of the West, all the way
from Yankton, S. OAK, for these
matches. Now Yankton, S. OAK,
is the home Of the Yankton Sioux,
and at this time of the year is
buried under the SnowdriftS. But
despite all Of this, Mr.. Doll packs
up his funny little bats and hikes
off for the frozen Potomac.
Must Be Games Call
II the tournament were held in
Miami, or maybe st. Petersburg,
the Pearl of Florida's West Coast,
we could understand this mid-win.
ter pilgrimage. But with ice in the
Potomac, it must be the call OF
the game.
And then there's Dick Tindall,
who Is here from st. Louis. The
trip is not nearly as arduous as
one from the land Of the Sioux,
when q man is willing to ride "a
hours for the privilege Of batting
an understood ball across a net,
the game must have something
that this prying agent has so far
never discovered.
Hopping about through the
entry list here and there we dis
cover that Ned Steele Is from
Huntington, Indiana, and Albert
Findley comes from Cleveland
Heights and spends his summers
roofing for Steve O'Neill's Indians.
So does George Sturgis, Of Cleve-
land.
Herman Leavitt, of Chicago,
thinks he has a chance to plant
some of the seeded athletes among
the ones who also competed.
Calvin Thurman is here from
Hamilton, Ohio. Bridgeport has
sent Sydney Shapiro to the Capt.
tai to uphold the honor and dig
nifty Of the Nutmeg State. Herb
Allen, of New York, is one of the
hopefuls who will compete.
If you started on tour by motor
to cover all the cities represented
in this zone championship you
would have a nifty little ride
around and about. =.
One reason for the boys coming.
of course. is the championship of
the world which will be held in
Prague next summer with the mas
tiers of the universe competing.
The winner of this tournament
will be sent abroad to compete for
the title.
d. c. Champion Completes
There'll be action from the
first serve to the last point. A
space 20 feet back from the
tables is set off, and the boys
will be driven back that far, the
players say, to return the
smashes that Sizzle over the net.
Elias schuman, champion of
the District of Columbia, and
Luis Pagliaro, one of Gotham's
luminaries in this field. will COM
pete. They'll give the fans a
treat for they are last and
hard hitters.
Morris Bassford, president of

Tennis Association. is a contest
ant, and Bob Radcliffe. one Of
the ranking players of America,
also is in the lists.
We can understand MeSSrS. Rat
cliffe and Bassford playing right
here in their home town. We can
understand a man wanting to
escape from Bridgeport. as Sgd
ney Shapiro has escaped. But
when a man comes all the way
from Yankton. s. D., the game
must be worth more than just
a victory.

FARMERS TAKE
STAND ASKING
CHEAP POWER

California farmers have, taken a
decided stand on the question of
the need of cheap electricity for
farm purposes and will net be
satisfied with the distribution of
power to their homes unless it can
be done at rate charges which
are not burdensome and which will
allow them to take the utmost
advantage Of such opportunities.
Expressions of sentiment to this
effect were given by R. B. Peters,
president of the San Bernardino
county farm bureau at a public
conference on the construction of
the Boulder Canyon Dam in San
Diego, December 10, 1921. A. B.
Fall, secretary of the Interior
presided at this conference.
In his speech during the confer
ence, Peters, who stated that he
was there to represent, primarily,
about 10000 farmers in the south
ern group of counties in California.
is quoted as having told his listen
ers: Eventually the farmers will
be big factor in purchasing, COL
lectively, Colorado River power,
provided it can be turned to them
at reasonable price, which is
not being done under private de-
Velopment at present in other
parts of the state; Electricity
under this plan OF private develop
ment in our State is not cheap
power, and q. in order that
irrigated agriculture may be main
tanned, cheap power is necessary"
Agreeing with the thoughts ex
pressed by Peters and convinced
that farmer sentiment has not
changed since that time nor have
private power rates been reduced
to a point where they would be
advantageous to the rural sections,
it is the opinion of the Imperial
Irrigation District board of direc-
tors as expressed in a recent state
ment issued by the board, that
only by the direct distribution CT
All American canal power by the
district will the farmers in this
area be able to enjoy the full
benefits of low rates and efficient
service for the identification of
their homes and ranches.
