den to night to try to convince
friends and foes that he can lick
any man in the world between 118

The first man he must convince

him, jabbing, fighting, ducking and
running to protect his lightweight
title.
If Armstrong wins-and the odds
favor him three to one-he will be
the first man ever to hold the feath-

"Yet, if we take this program

Herman Tapp, Brawley Negro,
will go to Folsom instead of San
Quentin prison for a term of from
one to 10 years for killing Ernest
Seagraves at Brawley July 81, Su-
perior Judge R. d. McPherrin ruled
Wednesday,
Tapp, who pleaded guilty last
week to manslaughter in the butch
er knife stabbing of Seagraves in
an argument over a few cents

sentenced to San Quentin. His des-
tlnation was changed because of

SCHOENBURG
FIGHTS MOVE
TO FOLSOM
Denies He Killed, Says
Guilty Plea Only to
Help County

Sam Schoenburg pleaded
guilty to numbering Charles
Meyers here July % only be-
cause his attorney advised
him to do so and to save the
county expense of a trial, he de-
clared in superior court Wednes-
day in disputing an attempt to send
him to Folsom instead of San Quen-
tin prison.
Schoenburg denied that he killed
Meyers, but said he wanted to save
the county a thousand dollars" so
pleaded guilty. He expressed salts
faction when Superior Judge R. D.
McPherrin ruled that the original
sentence, committing him to San
Quentin prison, should be allowed
to stand.
"Of course" said the judge, I'VE
have no jurisdiction over what the
prison board will do"
His remark reflected the opinion
of the district attorney and others
that Schoenburg may be transfer
red by the prison board to Folsom
prison, institution of two-time los
ers, because of previous conviction
in San Diego county on a man
slaughter charge growing out of
an automobile accident.
District Attorney Elmer w. Heald
declared he would strongly oppose
any attempt by Schoenburg to
change his plea.
"Schoenburg had been informed
OF his rights before he made his
plea" the district attorney said.
He knew what he was doing, and
he was represented by one OF the
best criminal attorneys in the state.
I see no reason to believe there can
be any doubt of his guilt"
The attorney referred to by Heald
was Edgar B. Hervey of San Diego,
who represented Schoenburg.

Hull's statement delivered in a

Throughout the speech, Hull ap-
piled Lincoln's reasoning in his
domestic problem to the present
worldwide clash between conflicting
political and economic idealogies
and philosophers. The address car
ried a warning that if dictatorial,
militaristic powers continue their
present course. a disastrous con-

Tuesday began excavation
of 100 miles of canal to carry Colo
RADIO river water to the Coachella
Valley.
The Lewis Chambers Construc-
ton company began work on the
Coachella turnout with one three
quarter yard capacity dragline on
the job, but expected to put other,
bigger machines to work on the
turnout in a short time.
The turnout will join the ALL
American canal proper, which
stretches 80 miles from Imperial
Dam to west of CaleXico, with the
Coachella branch canal-120 miles
of ditch carrying less water than
the main canal, but by reason of
its length calling for almost as
much excavation.
When completed the Coachella
branch will carry water to a fer
tile area now irrigated almost en-
tirely by pumping.
Way was cleared for work on
the Coachella branch when Neva-
daCalifornia Electric company
linemen under N. C. Smith finished
moving the company's 88,O00-volt
Yuma Imperial Valley transmits
sion line from the canal right of
way.
