UNDERSTANDING THE SITUATION
By Jeanette Stevenson Murray

did you know Jack marked thre'
words wrong on Ellen's spelling pa
per today? That'll put her down 1
little" Nine-year-old Mary Lou gig
gled. She was telephoning to Jane
while waiting to help with the dishes
Mother was putting the baby. to bed
The little girls were evidently ridi'
culing their schoolmate. do yor
think they'll choose her for class
monitor?-She thinks she has more
on her side-Let's ask the girls tC
skate with us tomorrow, then they
won't vote for Ellen, and say, I've
thought of a trick we can play on
her-right before the class-my, but
she'll be fused"
There was more giggling at the
thought of embarrassing Ellen, then
Mother called; Mary Lou hung up
and went to the kitchen.
ELLEN has a new Dress" said Mary
Lou as she polished the baby's silver
cup. Some of the girls think its
very pretty"
What is it like?"
ITS bought dress. plaid with red
on it and gold buttons. She wears a
white collar and cuffs with il. But
its down to her knees-can you i'm
agine? Yesterday. Jane drew a pic
ture of Ellen with her dress to the
floor. She wrote under it, Miss Lady
Long Dress. We passed it around at
recess and the girls all made fun Of
it. Then Ellen got angry, and when
we went in the teacher asked her
what was the matter, but Ellen
wouldn't tell"
THAT was fine. wasn't it?-her not
telling"
well, she wouldn't want to talk
about her dress being too long"
Il think she is nice little girl. l
must call on her mother"
"Oh, yes. she's a goody-goody all
right" and Mary LOUIS lips curled in
scorp.
why are you so against Ellen?"
Mother inquired.
I'm not against her; only it isn't
fair for her to be the whole thing"
81 see," said Mother looking
Until Ellen had moved
into the district, Mary Lou had al
ways received the highest grades in
her class and was the acknowledged
leader on the playground. Now Ell
len was a real competitor for honors
and Mary Lou was evidently finding
it hard to sometimes take second
place. But don't you think this
looks like jealousy"
mo, what makes you think that?"
Mary Lou was taken by surprise.
Because it seems to me you be-
have as though you were jealous"
Then Mother, in an understanding
and sympathetic manner. went on to
She spoke OF the different
ways in which jealousy Is shown.
"well, maybe am Jealous" said
Mary Lou. "but, just the same, | have
good cause"
mo, Ellen has as much right to
be first as you, and don't you see how
bad it makes her feel when you treat
ler this way? Put yourself in her
place. And what about being good
oser, Mary Lou?"
There was no answer, and Mary
lou was glad when the subject was
hanged. But she began to feel sorry
hat she had treated Ellen unkindly
md to consider how she could make
he matter right.
The next day her mother called on
Illens mother later she lent her a
lew book. A week or two afterwards |
ellen brought the book back. Mary |
.ou met her at the door. The girls
alked awhile on the porch, then
lent back to the garage to see the
ittens and were soon happily wash

teams Feb. 7, Jack Stark's Coca

strong Yuma nine Sunday after
noon in Brawley.
The game is scheduled TO start

rivals in the southwest.
The clubs have played three games
this season and the Bottlers have
emerged victorious on each occasion.
The Yuma team, however. is not
discouraged and the players vow
they will score enough runs in SUM-
days game to make the BottlerS
forget they ever won a game.
Due to the fact the Calipatria

The defeat. third in a row for

Both teams played a rough and
tumble game from start to finish
but the Bulldogs outroughed the
Vikings at every turn.
The first half was closely con-
tested, as Holtville managed to
match Calexico's scoring machine
point for point. Score at the inter-
mission stood PALS Calexico.
With the start of the second half.
however, Calexico took advantage
of seven foul shots to further in
crease its advantage and as the
period wore on Stinson and Gallego
continued to add to the Calexico
total with baskets from all posi-
tons of the court.
The Calexico second and third
teams entered the scoring spree in

SPORTS
PARADE
By Henry McLemore

SARASOTA. Fla, Jan. %. WP)-
With a merciless disregard for the
pet illusion of millions Of American
citizens, Paul Derringer told me
that baseball pitchers never hear
even so much as one decimal of
the noisy clatier set up by the fans
in the hope of distracting the OPP
posing finger when the home team
starts rally.
The Cincinnati Reds great pitch
err said that in all OF his six years
In the major leagues he couldn't
remember hearing a single hand
clap. foot-stomp. cat-call. whistle,
or boot. And that he was totally
deaf to cowbells. firecrackers. yells,
yowls and howls.
You mean to tell me-" I asked
with a sickening feeling in my
heart, tina, when you walk couple
of players in close game and the
costumers start giving you the razz,
that you don't hear them? That
their screeches and bleats and in
suits don't bea, against your ears,
shaking you nightly and threat
ening to get your treasured goat?"
Hell no." he answered. And the
same goes for all the other pitchers.
Any time pitcher starts hearing
that junk he might just as well
pack his suitcase and wire the folks
at home he'll be with EN- soon.
Because to hear that noise would
mean only one thing-your concen-
tration is gone. And unless you can
concentrate out there on the hill
you'll get your ears knocked off
every time you get out there"
Paul's blunt answer hurt me
deeply. And imagine it will hurt
the feelings of millions of other
baseball fans. Because if there is
one thing baseball fan is proud
of. its his ability to upset an enemy
pitcher in tight spot. and if Der
ringer is right. baseball fans have
been living in fools parade for
years. They haven't bothered any
body. and all the games they took
credit for winning with their razz-
ing weren't won b them at all.
Derringer once we settled the
noise issue. expressed the opinion
that Pittsburgh would win the Ma
tional league pennant this year;
that Charley Dresser of the Reds
was far and away the best manager
in the league; that he couldn't hope
to win more games than he did
last year f1Q) "hecaIlsp a pitcher
tires a little each year: that Lon
| Warneke's arm must not be healed
because before he hurt it he was
a fast-ball pitcher and now he has
to rely on his curve: and that he
wishes he could pitch against the
Cubs all the time, being as he licked
them six times last year.

Jaycees Will
Have Tough Job
In Bears Game

Prepared to meet its stiffest COM
petition in a season that has Of
fered more than enough tough OBJ
position. the Central junior college
cage team yesterday afternoon held
its final workout before its game
against Phoenix junior collegians
in the FL Centre gymnasium at 8
pm. Saturday.
The Bears. who have lost only
two games to the Central cagers in
six wears of play. will bring a club
to the valley Saturday night. re-
puted to be stronger than any bas-
ketball team ever turned out at the
Arizona institution.
Coach r. r. Taylor. who has SEN
his basketeers through one of the
stiffest practice grinds of the veal
during the past week announced
today that he expects the Arabs tc
show more power Saturday nigh,
than they have any time this sea-
son.
Mike Mclaughlin will be given q
starting berth at the center posi-
ton. Trudell and Gilliland will oper
at forwards and Templeton anc
Holbrock or Carter will start a
the guard positions.
Mclaughlin. who has established
himself as one of The outstanding
players in the valley, will lead the
jaycee attack with Trudell and Gil
liland filling in at the scoring posts
Holbrook and Templeton will bt
content to work the ball under tht
basket to Mclaughlin and the two
forwards, and then lay back to hall
the fast break Phoenix offenst
when the Arabs lose possession o.
the ball
Because Phoenix employs fas
break offense. fans can expect
wild scoring game with both team!
abandoning defenses and concen-
trating on offensive play.
