Reversal Met Head-on,

With the court in an untenable po-
sition by virtue of its decision in the
case of Adkins VS.. Childrens Hospital,
which declared unconstitutional Dis
trict minimum wage law for women
and children, Chief Justice Hughes,
delivering the majority opinion, met
the issue squarely in these words:
Our conclusion is that the case of
Adkins VS.. Children's Hospital decided
in 1929 should be, and it is, over
ruled
In taking this position the court
also, IN effect, overruled its decision
last year in the New York minimum
wage law, which was invalidated on
the strength of the ruling in the Ad-
kins case.
The Chief Justice had hardly COM
pleted reading the opinion when Sen
ator Robinson. the majority leader,
interrupted q spirited Senate debate
on the court issue with the shouted
assertion:

HOltville Hi

Spartan football players from El
Centre high school today looked
forward to week of intensive drill
in preparation for the most crucial
of a series of crucial games this
season.
El Centro meets Holtville high
school Friday night in Holtville in
a game that will determine the
Central eleven's chances to success
fully defend the title it won last
season.
Holtville leads the league with a
record of three wins and one loss
and a victory over the Ell Centre
team Friday night will assure the
Vikings of at least a tie for the
league championship and will shove
the Spartans out of the running.
The Vikings impressive seasonal
record makes the Walkermen out
standing favorites over the Spar
tans. Add this to the list of in
jurieS that becomes larger each
week on the Spartan roster and
Ell Centro's chances for the title
are about as bright as uses hopes
to win the coast conference crown.
Holtville players are confident the
Spartans lack the stuff to give
them run for the title and are
pointing for the Brawley game
Thanksgiving day rather than for
the El Centro contest Friday night

"A BEATING AS
GRAPPLERS ACT

BRAWLEY, November 15.-It
was open season on referees in
Brawley tonight as five tough grap-
plaers put on the finest wrestling
show OF the SeaSon-and the rough
est.
Dick Lever played the iron man
role when he finished off Pat Fra
ley in the semi-windup and then
lost a two out of three fall de-
cision to Vic Hill in the main
event.
1t was Fraley who started the
trouble with Referee Joe Pico in
the semi windup. Pico got in Fra
ley's path and the big Irishman
ripped Pico's shirt from his back.
Then, while F'raley was looking
for better hold on Pico, Lever
came from behind to win the Sec
ond fall. Pico awarded the first
fall to Lever on account of personal
feelings against the shirt ripping
Fraley.
Hill continued the assault on
Pico by ripping the refs suspen-
ders off and then making valiant
attempt to take Pico's undershirt
in the bargain.
Hill won the first fall from Lever
with series of body slams but
lost the second in thirty seconds
when Lever put on the pressure.
Hill won the final fall with a
peculiar version Of the body press.
Del RIO and Bob Coleman bat
tied to draw in the opener.
