Ed COVINGTON
SEES DEFEAT
FOR CALEXICO

Coach Ed Covington shook his
head sadly early today, predicted
defeat for his team at the hands
of Coachella and mapped a final
light practice session tonight.
The Bulldogs will meet the Goa
chellans on the Calexico gridiron
Thursday night at 8 pm.
Covington arranged the Coachella
game one night earlier in order not
to conflict with the Fl Centro-
Sweetwater anne Friday night
Coach Covington, hampered by
the loss OF seven regulars and most
of his promising squadmen, pre-
dicted q dismal season for his
charges on the eve of their first
game but sports writer's were in
clined to take Covington's peSsim-
ism with a grain of salt.
The Bulldog mentor can always
be counted on to put out a strong
team and fans from all parts of the
valley will move on Calexico Thurs
day night to determine just how
strong the Calexico eleven will be
this season.

over, the journal was compelled to print
an apology filled with fulsome praise of

There are citizens of the United States
who would like to have some restrictions

censed at things published and jump to the
conclusion that there ought to be way to
stop such practices In fact, there is: Quit
supporting the publication by subscriptions

This remedy is better than censorship

all subjects. Without free speech there
can be no certainty that the public will

TWO LESSONS, AT LEAST

There are two lessons, at least, to be
learned from the story of Robert Irwin,
29-year-old sculptor and former theological
student who will soon go before jury in
New York, charged with the killing of
three persons, including a woman her
daughter and roomer.
After killing the older woman, Irwin
says he didn't want to murder the daugh-
ter because she was beautiful and he
hated to destroy beauty" However, he
had to hold her an hour while waiting for
ner sister-the one he had decided to kill
Ito come home and he'thought she did
not know who he was but she made the
mistake of saying, I know it's you, Bob. !"
The lesson, as we see it, is that, in the
event any one you know, slugs you and
holds you captive, be nonchalant and call
some other name. 1t might save your
life.
Now that the police have captured
Irwin, described as giggling, jaunty and
without the slightest trace of remorse, his
lawyers come forward with the theory
that he is crazy and therefore not respon-
sible for his triple murder. They hope to
save his carcass from the chair and per-
haps little later, he will be pronounced
sane and turned out free man.
The defense of insanity, if established.
may be convincing insofar as moral re-
sponsibility is concerned but murderously
inclined human being is menace to So
ciety whether crazy or not. The purpose
of legal punishment is rot to injure the
guilty through a spirit of vengeance but as
warning to others not to commit similar
crimes.
A man whose insanity is a warped
conscience does not belong in the same
category with a raving, raging, out-of-con-
troll mentality Irwin had sense enough to
plan his crime, to make his escape, to live
for weeks as worker in Chicago and, it
seems, to set up a defense that might en-
able him to beat the electric chair. He is
intelligent, even if mentally disordered in
a degree, and his type is a distinct menace
to other people everywhere.
The lesson number two, as we see it,
is that, in order to deter other such intelli-
gent-insane mentalities, the legal punish
ment of Irwin should not be avoided by
society upon the flimsy reasoning that he
was not responsible for what he did.
