CHICAGO, June 12.-Melo AL
mazda made an suspicious debut
as center fielder of the Griffs
yesterday. His performance radi-
ated at least q note Of cheer
through the corridors Of the Del
Prado Hotel, where the Washing
ton Warriors sat around and
mulled over the doing of the sour
afternoon. One and all, they put
the stamp Of approval upon the
young Mexican who is going to
win friends by his spirit. and per
sonality as well as by his ability
on the field.
Armada made two hits, both
singles, and drew a base on balls.
His hit in the third inning should
have been a double, but Monte
Weaver conserved energy and
halted at second base, compelling
Armada to stop at first. He sin
gled to center in the ninth in
ming, Twice he grounded out;
once to first base and once to
third base, showing the field. Of
fire he covers.
What was more impressive than
his catching Of hard hit drives,
and he made two such catches;
more heartening than his accu-
rate throwing, was the way he
supported Stone and fielded
ground balls that go through
the latter. ..5>.
HE covers ground out there

'sHe covers ground, and Is dead

minor league team you would
buy him without hesitating."
One Of the Smoethest, slicket
hitters in the American League
at this time is Raymond Ripper"
Radcliffe, leftfielder of the Chi
cago White Sox. He opened the
game with q ringing double to
center field. Stone touched the
ball but couldn't hold it.
This is "Rigney Day" at Comis-
key Park. The local lad who
graduated to the major leagues
from the sand lots of River Forest
will be honored by his friends.

He didn't stop until he had made

A furious row broke out in, the
first inning when Red Orrnsby

second, and Tony Piet at bat

inning, Melo Armada would have
had a two-base hit. His drive

What q shame it is that four

against Monte Weaver in the first
inning, when, II Stone had caught
a simple fly by Hayes, the inning
would have been over.
The sun must have been blind
ing, for Joe Kuhel lost a hunted
fly off the bat Of Jackie Hayes
in the fifth inning and almost was
hit by the bali.
Melo Armada was a victim of
scoring rules in the fifth. He
made fine return of Whitehead's
single, striving to cut down Sewell
at third. Hi drive hit the Sox
catcher on the heel, and bounced
into the dugout. 1t had to be
scored an error.
The Griffs put on a bit of a rally
in the sixth frame and made three
runs off five hits. Yves Terrell
came up with two out and ended
the inning.

way Ferrell conducted himself be-
hind the bat, and immediately
went back to the days OF. Eddie
.AinSmith, Gabby Street. and
Muddy Ruel, seeking a standard
for comparison. Whether or not
Terrell surpasseS the aforenamed
veterans, it is certain that his per-
: Torrance was as, smooth as silk.
Not Husky
Rick Ferrell, incidentally, is
contrary to the generally accepted
physical standards for catcherS.
He is not a big, husky man. His
feet are not big and; quite stlrpr1S-
ing, his hands are those OF the
bank clerk rather than. the pro-
fessional ball player. But he does
not drop the ball and do the
things that other .cstcherS built
along. his lines so often do.
Yves FerrelfS record against the
White Sox is. one that inspires
little confidence for today'S battle.
He has been shelled off the mound
a couple Of times this year, and
several times last year.. A Chicago
critic, trusting to memory, said
that the White Sox had knocked
Terrell off the hill six times.
Terrell, however, Is certain he
can win. His arm, he says, is
right, but admits trouble with his
control, especially Of his slow
stuff. When he gets his control,
he will go right along winning. He
wants to win with Washington.
Bad Breaks 80. -.
Fearful and wonderful were the
happenings on ComiSkey Park yes
terday. Prof. Monte Weaver got
his ears knocked down, but with
out attempting an alibi for the
pedagogue, it may be said that he
got none the best Of the breaks.
In the first inning, with two out,
for instance, Johnny Stone lost a
little fly by Hayes in the sun, A
hit and a balk followed; and four
runs were posted. H. -.
The first inning set the tempo
Of the game. The Sox baShed the
ball, the ,Griffs failed on puny
chances. Weaver, for. instance,
failed to field a weak little tap by
walker; Kuhel lost weak little
fly in the sun. This happened and
that happened until IA runs were
scored by Chicago. The Griffs
got eight runs, sufficient to win,
but eight runs were not enough.

THE IRRIGATION DISTRICT
ASSESSMENT

Imperial Valleys gratitude is due the
Imperial Irrigation Districts board of
directors for the tireless negotiations and
study which resulted in an assessment
rate of $3.78 per hundred dollar Yalua-
ton for the 1898 year. What effort
the director put forth is brought into
sharp focus when we consider that there
were predictions of a rate running as
high as $13, with most forecasterS de-
claring the rate could not be less than So.
Imperial Valleys gratitude is based
on the impetus which will be given busi-
ness, agriculture and real estate by the
announcement that taxes, where the dis
trict is concerned, will be left practically
in status quo this year, at least.
There will be complaints from some
bondholders, notably those who have
steadfastly held out against any reorgan-
ization of the districts bonded debt. Yet
the tax rate, in addition to recognizing
that Imperial Valley taxpayers must not
be assessed above their ability to pay,
probably will do as much as anything
else could to place this valley once again
on sound financial footing The new
rate can be expected to encourage busi-
ness instead of strangling it; it will give
the farmer a chance to work for him
Sell dS well dS 1OI tile ulSlTICl. lie DOlQ-
holders should be satisfied with an ar
rangement which promises them greater
surety of eventual return on their in
vestmentS.
The Imperial Irrigation District can
not satisfy its bondholderS until the tax
payers of the district are reasonably SOL
vent. With tax rate reaching into the
skies, such solvency could never be
achieved. The district board has set the
only assessment rate which could be
fixed in fairness to both taxpayers and
bondholders.
The entire story is Not yet written.
Negotiations with bondholders looking
toward a refunding of the districts debt
must be carried through before the S378
assessment rate is assured of success.
This years rate and our bonded debt
are so inextricably linked that consider
alton of one leads to consideration of
the other. A good start has been made,
but finis will not be written until the
bond question is settled.
The assessment rate gives US new con-
fidence that our district directors will
be able to solve other problems success
fully.

CAN JAPAN CONTROL
CHINA FOR ALL TINE?

The Japanese objective in that nations
invasion of China it now develops, is not
to force an apology for imagined wrongs,
nor to collect price for the assassina-
ton of one japanese military officer, nor
to force China into status of business
partnership with Japan. 1t is, instead,
complete control of all China's vast ter
ritory and huge population.
Japan is planning right now to string
a 2000-mile line of military bases across
China, hoping thereby to control the en-
tire country and all its people.
To the casual observer, it appears
that Japan in its military egotism has
taken on job that is impossible of sue
cess. In all these centuries, the Chinese
government itself has never been able
to dominate all of its own territory, nor
all Of its own people. You may say that
the Chinese government today is not
strong enough to do so-but remember
that the same was true when China had
a series of the strongest governments the
world has ever known.
japanese troops may conquer Chinese
troops, but it is extremely doubtful that
Japan will ever control China.
