This year the fellows fro mthe mountain came out on top IS 1-2 to IA l-2 in a close match all the way. The results were

Warren Promises
Slot Machine War
Throughout State
Unless Local Officers
Eradicate Machines
State Will Move In
SAN FRANCISCO, July l

SAN FRANCISCO, July l
(UP) = Attorney General
Earl Warren today announc-
ed he was going to rid Cali
fornia of slot machines and
warned he would "move in on" any
local law enforcement officer who
refused to cooperate in the drive.
Warren said he would strike first
at the "one-armed pickpockets" and
other automatic payoff gambling
devices such as automatic pinball
games.
There are two or three places
in California where slot machine
racketeers are on the verge Of
bloodshed," he warned. rPart of
the motive of this campaign against
the machines is to eliminate the
possibility of violence between
gamblers.
Warren said his agents now were
investigating the slot machine rack
cts of the state, but he would first
call on local authorities to wipe
out the devices before taking ac-
ton himself. He said the drive
would center primarily against slot
machine distributors.
II expect the cooperation of
eighty per cent of the local Off
cials," he said, "but I'll move in
any place I don't get cooperation. !"
Warren's latest move against CAL
ifornia gambling was backed up by
George Reilly, member of the state
board of equalization, who added
the threat of revoking licenses of
liquor dispensers who keep gam
bling devices.

3 Day Weekend

Hot or cold, (and the odds
were on hot) Imperial Val
lev relaxed Saturday noon
in the face of a three-day
holiday and prepared for a
rest in the breeze of desert coolers
or exercises at coast resorts.
The exodus of coast-bound trav-
elers began in the forenoon while
the temperature moved over 100
degrees and highways west and
north were crowded. No serious ac-
cidents, however. were reported.
Bus lines, operating on doubled
schedules, reported rushing busi-
ness out of Ell Centro. Instead Of
the usual five buses a day to coast
points, eight were in operation.
Automobile club members report
ed travel inquiries had tripled and
both Ell Centre banks reported
one of the busiest days of the year
with weekend vacationists draw
ing out funds.
Long queues formed at every
window in the Bank of America
and the Security First National
with cashiers working at top speed.

posed to the plan because he be-
lieves it would not work and might
be inconsistent with certain pro-
visions of the constitution Of the
United States"
It was the first time Olson ever
had spoken directly against the
measure. In his campaign for the
governorship last fall he stated only
that he would enforce the law Il
it were passed The bill was de-
feated at the same election that
made him governor. and has been
revived by an initiative petition.
II would be false to my own
conscience and sense of duty if I
failed to here exprss my belief that.
If adopted, this measure would fail
to achieve It's objective, would dis
appoint the hopes of its supporters
and would retard instead Of aid
our progress. the governor said.
II must also state that there are
provisions with regard to the use
of warrants for legal payment of
taxes and other obligations which
the judicial branch of the govern
ment may hold to be inconsistent
with certain provisions of the con-
stitution of the United States"
The governor said he chose Nov,
7 because Californians are accus-
toned to voting on important mat
ters at about that time of year,
and because election costs could
be reduced by conducting the elec-
ton with the local elections OF
many communities In the state on
that date.

Who Crashed Through Road Blockade

Imperial county officers searched
Saturday for the death car" pilot
blamed for a traffic fatality at
Boulder Park Friday
The wanted man was the driver
of the car in which Oscar Pickett,
%, Texas hitchhiker, was fatally
wounded in an accident caused by
the drivers frenzied flight from

he drove it through a barricade,
plowed through the road under
construction at Boulder Park, and
crashed into road machinery. The
car he drove was said to have been
