SWIMMING AN
EXERCISE OF
| N PORT TAN &C.
By ALICE KENYON

Swimming is an art superior to
all others for the promotion and
preservation of health. Why? Be-
cause swimming is becoming known
as the best exercise for all pur-
poses. It is one of the few sports
which exercises every part of the
body with moderation, yet i'm
poses no severe strain on any
single muscle. 1t is the only sport
in which we engage while in. a
prone position, for which our bodies
were designed. AS a result, all of
the organs of the human body as
sumo their correct position while
swimming, thus allowing them to
function naturally.
knowledge of swimming is eS-
sential for the protection of the
individual. 1t has been estimated
that 80 per cent of the deaths oc-
curing each year from drowning
could be eliminated if every one
would learn to swim mere fifty
feet. For the protection of life and
promotion of health and happiness
everyone should learn to swim.
No matter what your physical
makeup, you can be greatly bene-
fitted by participating in an invig-
Grating, healthful exercise. The
majority of people require a sport
that is not strenuous but which
develops their physical structure
evenly and beautifully. Swimming,
the universal sport, fulfills every
requirement for healthful and
beautifying recreation.
Active swimmers are developed
proportionately, every muscle has
been built up gradually and uni
formly. The chest is deepened and
the lungs strengthened, thus aid
ing in the Qualification of the
blood stream. which is fundamen-
tai for a clean, clear complexion
and a bright, alert expression.
Coordination, the secret of a
1.-THE, graceful carriage, is out
standingly apparent in those who
are active swimmers. There is no
sport, especially for women, that
gives more healthful exercise.

We are justly proud of the Ell
Centro mems night ball league, but
do you know about the girls soft
ball team that has already begun
to practice regularly four nights a
week in preparation for what they
hope will be their best and biggest
season? This team, known as the
Sherwood Girls Soft Ball Team, is
entering its fifth season.
John Kepley has been coaching
and managing these girls with as
sistanee from Bean" Stewart, the
past two years but this year John
is coach, Bean is manager, and
Henry Davis is assistant manager.
In 1884, this team won the Arizona
state championship, by defeating a
Phoenix team which had won 80
straight games.
The team seems to be whipping
into shape very fast this year AMI
as the writer Observed them in
practice the other night, they were
giving that ball a mighty Wallop,
but the fielders were making good
stops and were throwing strong
and accurately from all positions.

ATHLETIC UNIT
ENDS YEAR OF
GREAT SUCCESS

The Girls Athletic Association,
one of the most active of all school
groups at Central high, will wind
up, on May Is, its most successful
year since its organization five years
ago.
Until five years ago the Central
nigh school competed against girls
teams from other valley high
schools, but at that time the Ell
Centrans completely dominated the
league. One by one the other schools
dropped out of the league and fin
ally Ell Centro and Brawley were
the only schools in the loop
Since other California schools had
adopted the G. A. A. plan, the valley
high schools organized in 1882.
AT the beginning of each year the
girls who enter the G.. A. A. choose
four teams to compete against each
other in all sports during the year.
For playdays the schools do not
compete as school against school
Instead they choose sides and play
teams with girls from both schools
on opposing squads.
The main object of the playdays
is to create more friendly relations
among girls of the valley schools
and at the same time further inte-
rest in girls sports.
Hikes and tap dancing are part of
the routine followed by the Ct. A. A.
Basketball, speedball, track, indoor
baseball, tennis and baseball are also
on the G.. A. A. schedule.
Mrs. Evalena Moore is the physi-
cal education instructor and advisor
for the c.. A. A. and Geneva Abel
is the president.

will give our girls more chances for
practice games, which is what they
need, as they have little chance TO
play under fire except III. scheduled
games.
Their hope for this season is to
invade tougher competition by quail
flying for the Examiner Tourna-
ment in Los Angeles during Sep
tember.
Girls night ball is taking the
coast by storm, and in some places
drawing larger crowds than mems
games. Many Of the tilts will be
played on the home field.
Bean Stewart, manager, says: THE
future of the club looks aWfully
good and we expect to go farther
than we have before. We have
more experienced girls to begin
with and lots of new talent Tor
future teams. With three coaches
out each night, our infield, outfield

Nine testimonials were given, one
of which read: Il do hereby GER

set New Deal legislation, and
avowed frankly his determination
to have a tribunal that will not
undertake to override the judgment
of the congress on legislative pol
ICY" If the phrase packing
the court" means that, then, said
the President Il say that 1 and
with me the vast majority Of the
American people favor doing just
that thing-noW."
THE court, in addition to the
proper use of its judicial functions"
said Mr.. Roosevelt, has improper
ly set itself up as a third house Of
the congress-a super-legislature,
as one of the justices has called it
reading into the constitution words
and implications, which are not
there, and which were never in
tended to be there.
1--WE have, therefore, reached the
point as a nation where we must
take action to save the constitution
from the court and the court from
itself. We must find way to take
an appeal from the Supreme court
to the constitution itself. We want
a Supreme court which will do JUS
tice under the constitution-not over
it. In our courts we want a gov
ernment of laws and not of men,"
Attorney General Cummings ap-
peared before the senate judiciary
committee to speak for the Presi-
dents court bill, and he used much
the same arguments Mr.. Roosevelt
had employed. Senators Borah and
Burke questioned him sharply and
searchingly, but he was agile in
evasion. However, he did satisfy
the opposition senators by admit
ting bluntly that the purpose Of the
measure was to change the COM
plexion of the court, to get men with
Liberal, forWard-looking views"
Senator Dieterich of Illinois
sought to curb the questioning of Mr..
Cummings but was Squelched by
Borah. Dieterich has not commit
ted himself on the bill but is now
classed among its supporters. His
candidate for the federal circuit
court of appeals in Chicago, District
Judge j. Earl Major of Springfield,
has Just been nominated by the

Assistant Attorney General Rob-
ert Jackson was the second witness
heard, and the foes of the meas
ure sought to prove, by questioning
him, that there is no actual need
for the judiciary bill to relieve con-
gestion of federal dockets and there
fore that the only purpose of the
measure is to change the viewpoint
of the high tribunal.

Mr.. Roosevelt Is Resting
at Warm Springs

CATISFIED with the way his ad-

ward, President Roosevelt left
Washington for a two weeks stay
in Warm Springs, Ga. He went di-
rectly to his white cottage on Pine
mountain from which he looks down
on the foundation for infantile pa
ralysis sufferers. 1t was announced
that he would see few officials or
other visitors there, conducting all
essential public business by tele-
graph and telephone. Temporary
executive offices were set up in
Kress hall at the foundation.
Before leaving Washington Mr..
Roosevelt said at a press confer
ence that he and Prime Minister w.
L. Mackenzie King of Canada had
discussed the st. Lawrence water
way treaty during Kings visit.
Whether the treaty will be submit
ted to tie senate at this session, he
said, is not yet known. 1t was
rejected a few years ago.

Court Orders Strikers
Out of Chrys1er Plants

CIRCUIT JUDGE ALLEN CAMP
~ BELL Of Detroit granted an in
junction restraining sit-doWn strik-
erS from continuing to occupy the
nine plants of the Chrysler corpora
tion in that city. He declared the
strikers were in unlawful possession
of the plants and gave them two
days to get out. The Chrysler COM
pany has refused to recognize the
United Automobile Workers as the
sole bargaining agency for its en-
ployees, who number $1,000. En-
forcement of the law was thus again
put Squarely up to Gov. Frank Muir
ply, and both sides in the contro-
versy, as well as citizens generally,
waited with intense interest for him
to decide his course.
Governor Murphy, returning hur-
riedly from Florida, was taking
steps that he hoped would put an
end to the epidemic of strikes in
the states major industries. He
arranged a series Of conferences
with law enforcement officers, and
industrial, union and civic leaders,
and appointed a commission of 20
to study the problem. Among the
members are Homer Martin, presi-
dent of the United Automobile Work
ers; Frank H. Bowen, regional di-
rector of the national labor rela-
tions board; Attorney General Ray
mond Starr, and James McEvoy,
president of the Detroit board of
commerce.
General Motors and the United
Automobile Workers of America
reached an agreement for the set
Element of all their disputes. It
covers wages, working conditions,
and recognition of the union as the
bargaining agency for its members.
Final acceptance of the pact by the
workers delegates was won by un-
ion leaders only after long strug-
gle.
