its stride in the opening game of
the season, is primed to knock
over the favored Buttermaker
team.
The goal of the Hardware de-
fense will be to stop Richard
"Dutchie' Van Nostrand, who last
week ran up 81 points against
the Bachelors.
The Staters will not depend on
Van Nostrand alone. to score their
points, however, as Delozier, Nc

The Hardware five has an array
of former high school stars that

Hi
Cage Stars
Take Rest

While other valley high school
basketball teams continued inten-
sive workouts in preparation for
games this weekend, Central high
school varsity cagers took a rest
yesterday afternoon and were slat-
ed to resume practice for the Cali
patria game today.
Despite the fact the Hornets are
not given much chance to upset ths
Central team Friday night, Coach
w. S. Taylor plans to drive his
charges through a long workout
today and tomorrow in order 10
have the El Centrans in the best
possible shape for the all-important
tilt.
In Brawley Coach Marvin Walker
continued to drill his basketball
teams. Though he expects little
or no trouble from the Imperial
team Friday night, Clark hopes to
keep his charges on edge SO they
will be able to maintain the fast
pace they have set thus far in the
league race.
Coach Covington announced to-
day that he expects his Bulldogs TO
show new speed and power when
they meet Holtville high in the Ell
Centre gymnasium Thursday after
noon or evening.
Holtville. its eyes cast on third
place in the loop standings, is GER
tain, however, that the Bulldogs
will be unable to win their game
against the Vikings.
The Walkermen have shown a
good offense and defense in games
this season, and though they have
dropped decisions to Ell Centre and
Brawley, they are confident they
will finish the season in the first
division.

SUPREME court
'UPHOLDS MIRROR
Tail Light Also Must Be
Shown on All Cars
After Dark

Owners Of automobiles involved In
accidents after dark, which can be
proven substantially to be due to the
lack Of q tail Light, may be held
liable for damages according to an
opinion Of the supreme court Of err
rors, rendered this week. The opinion
upholdS the motor vehicle statute
which says "a red light shall be
displayed at all times while motor
vehicle Is being operated upon the
highways from one-hak hour after
sunset to one-half hour before sun
RISE" References are also made
which uphold the mirror, hand sig
nal and brake statutes.
The court ruled that regardless
Of whether the operator knew Of the
failure Of action Of the light or not,
he was still libable. The opinion was
written by Justice Christopher L..
Avery In the case Of Martin w.
Madison VS.. Morris Morovitz, which
was for damages as a result Of a
collision in Orange, November 8,
1884, when the plaintiffs car struck
the rear Of the defendants truck.
The plaintiff claimed the truck was
minus red light or reflector, and
this was the main cause Of the COL
nsion.
The appeal was taken from the
verdict Of New Haven county
jury, which favored the defendant.
Judge Patrick B. O'Sullivan presided
at the trial, and the supreme court
found error in his charge, in which
he stated that the absence Of a tail
light did not make the defendant
negligent.

Father Takes Trips
A short while before DR.. Mattson
made several automobile trips to
undisclosed places. Once he was
accompanied by his other son, WILL
lam, Jr, who witnessed the kidnap-
ing.
Paul Sceva, resort manager, and
Lieut.. Col. Gus B. Appleman, the
possible Intermediates, after their
conference with the father, said no
progress had been made in obtain
ing the child's release. The boys
grandmother, Mrs. Charles Fletcher,
said no word had been received from
the abductor.
While some minor officials ex-
pressed fear for the child's safety
and a few considered the possibility
that he had been murdered, the
family apparently had reason to be-
lieve otherwise. An atmosphere Of
optimism seemed to pervade the
Mattson home where the parents
and their friends stood vigil at five
telephones.
G-Men Very Busy
The G-men were quietly busy,
though avoiding anything that would
interfere with the fathers negotia-
lions with the kidnaper. Their ac-
tivities were cloaked with the usual
secrecy. Forty-f1ve agents are be-
lieved working on the case and yes
terday Harold Nathan, assistant di-
rector Of the department and E. j.
Connelley, the agent who directed
the investigation in the Weyer-
haeuser kidnaper that result in the
arrest Of the three abductors and
recovery Of the 5000, 900 ransom, ar
rived to take charge.
Discovery Of an abandoned camp
fire and a boys Undertaking near
Olympia, Wash, sent a detail Of po-
lice to that city to investigate pos
sibility that the place had been &C.
cupied by Charles and his kidnaper.
Camp In Woods
The camp was located In dense
ly wooded section about 80 miles
from Olympia, and 1t was reported
that q man and a boy were seen
entering the forest near the scene
OF the camp.
Today 1t was said that the kid
naper stipulated in his ransom note
that DR.. Mattson was not to estab-
lish contact with the abductor until
he received another message printed
in the same manner with the same
type OF ink.
It could not be learned whether
such a note had been sent to the
Mattson home.
