II is fine to have a group of
citizens of FL Centre interested in
the welfare of high school students
to the extent that they make an
effort TO have baseball included in
the sports program at the institu-
ton.
But now that baseball has been
included in the program, the sched-
ule planned and an instructor ap-
pointed to coach the team, it is time
10 lay off.
This talk about the baseball team
being put on their own without
supervision is a lot of bunk.
Bill Maxwell and Al zech are divid-
ing the coaching duties, maximum
number of players are participating
and the Ell Centre stadium has been
put at the disposal of the team.
There is a group that probably
wouldn't be satisfied if Bill Nc
kechnie was appointed baseball
coach. So the parents of the
baseball players and would-be base
ball players can rest at ease
THERE IS supervision, a schedule
has been drawn, and they'll be play
ing baseball twice a week from now
on.
The annual softball meeting, two

scheduled for Friday nights =. That
is the schedule which worked out
so well last year and the league
officials agree that those dates will
again be observed as softball play
irg nights in FL Centro.
The Hogue twins, who are as
active in the professional fight ring
as a chamber of commerce publicity

that bout TO Tuesday nights fight

Season Later

The season this year Is approx

but anglers predict that the delay

Another thing that should con-
tribute to the success of the pre-
sent season is the fact that the
Mexican government has decreed
that there shall be no more purse
seining in the vicinity of the Coro-
nados. Deep sea fishing last year
was very poor in the vicinity of the
Coronados and many sportsmen at
tributed the slump to the activities
of the purse seiners.
The H. & M. Company's Mascot

the Coronados, daily at a. m. This
arrangement gives valley fishermen
an opportunity to enjoy the day
