BASQUE ARMY
 TIGHTENS UP
RepuIses Gen. MOla'S Ad- vance in Proximity tOs

United Press Staff Correspondent
 Hendaye, Franco7Spanish From tier, May 1.-(UP)ABasque army defenses, threw back the nationalist army nearly two miles in the Guer- mica Salient today, frontier dis patches reported.
 The Basque counter-attack, stop ped Mola's troops, at least tempo rarily, and removed his threat to the left flank of the loyalist army stretching from Guernica to the sea at Bermeo.
 Latest military reports crossing the frontier placed Mola's closest forces within IS miles of the Basque capital with two parallel columns pointed toward Bilbao from Guer- mica and Durango.
 While the loyalist forces were throwing back the Guernica column, late reports told of nasty loyalist en- trenchmentS being dug at Amore- bieta, on the left bank of the Abai- zalbal river, 8 miles northwest of Durango, as the government forces fought desperately to hold back that wing of Mola's army.
 Indications were that Amorebieta was fast becoming the key position in the new Basque defenses between Mola's army and Bilbao.
 The loyalist army, retreating from Guernica, ancient Basque capital de- stroyed last Monday by General Emilio Mola's bombing planes and later captured by his infantry, coun- ter attacked suddenly today and threatened to recapture the town. The onslaught carried the re- treating Basque troops back to the heights of Bizcazgui, which dom- mate Guernica. The loyalists brought up artillery and machine guns and made speedy efforts of en- trench and hold their hard-won prOIlnd

How you behave is your neigh

Dignity is beautiful to contem-

with skill.
We all know how much we like
a man when we hear he has just
died. Let's tell him a little of
that before he does.
He that from fear doeth good,
is still more meritorious than he
that doeth no good at all.
Features of GentiIity
Two main features of gentility
are propriety and consideration

The swan knows how to use it's

The giraffe doesn't and is gro
tesque.

HOrsemen with yearlings in their
stables are racking their brains
these days. About 5000 horses are
registered with the Jockey Club
each year and the supply of pretty
names is getting low. Incidentally

one of the good old names until
the original gee-gee has been dead
at least five years. :. Note to j. c.

was bred by Barney Schneider, the

horse is not new. In the old days
of foot racing it was a common &C.

learned that two years before he
had been troubled with crops of
boils. He was advised to go on a
diet to reduce his weight and to
leave sweets and starches alone.
He had lived almost entirely on
grapefruit, oranges, a small por-
ton Of meat daily, and lettuce oc-
casionally. On this diet he reduced
his weight from 165 to 1O5. The
fruits were giving him Vitamin c,
