There was at least one sad man
in Imperial Valley Monday follow
ing announcement of the Hogue
twins, Shorty and Bigboy, that they
will turn to the professional ring
in less than month.
The man made sad by the an
nouncement was Leo Ellis. Calexico
matchmaker. who had planned to
schedule the twins in a series OF
bouts in the border city arena.
The twins, however, plan to fight
only once in the Olympic auditorium
in Los Angeles as pros before max
ing an attempt to land a movie
contract.
A victory in their professional
debut. the twins reason. will en-
hance their chances to land a con-
tract in Hollywood.
If Shorty and Bigboy fail in their
attempt TO join the movie colony.
they will turn back TO professional
fighting and there are experts who
predict the twins will make sue
cesSful showing in the big time.
One fight manager said: THE
Hogue twins are the best fighters
at l8 years of age that have ever
seen. They know practically all OF
the tricks of boxing.
They are clean fighters. fun
damentally. but let an opponent
start roughing it up and the twins
can make the going mighty rough
the fight manager concluded.
So apparently you can quit worry
ing about the Hogue twins. Indica-
tions are they will be able to make
their. own breaks, in the movies or
on the professional boxing circuit.

 London, Feb. l0--If Gen. Franco wins command of all Spain
 If, having done so, he is willing to have king as the nominal ruler of the country
 If, being favorable. dictators Hit Ter and Mussolini do not veto the plan
 THEN a good looking young man named Don Juan Carlos Teresa Sil- verio may be called to the throne vacated by his father, former King Alfonso XIII, in April, 1881, after the Spanish revolution.
 But those "ifs" are tough hurdles There are those who think that Franco will not be inclined to give up power to a king, but will rule on the lines of Hitler. There are still others who think that Franco may I,e willing to have Don Juan as royal figurehead, such as Mussolini is reputed to have made of King victor Emmanuel in Italy, but that Hitler and Mussolini may veto the plan.
 The trouble about Don Juan from the German . Italian standpoint would be that there is too much English about him. His mother was an English princess. The young man himself served Q goodly time in the English navy. And the English are al present not exactly chosen people for Hitler and Mussolini. They might fear that a King Juan or whatever he chose to call himself would slant Spain too much towards democratic England and forget what the totalitarian states did to help Franco.
 Don Juan is the third son of AL fonso and was born June 20, 1913 He was raised very simply, because he never dreamed of being heir to the throne. He had two brothers be-

Pointing to the saving in life and injury, as well as the lowered cost of automobile insurance due to effectiveness of the Accident Pre- vention Bureau, Superintendent William J. Roach of Waterbury po- lice, today recounted how much lessened insurance rates have re- suited.
 In a staetment on work of the bureau, Superintendent Roach quot ed a waterbury business man who gave high praise to the departments work. an answer to the superinten- dents categorical question:
 "Does the Accident Prevention Bureau pay @ dividend?
 I can say unreservedly that the Accident Prevention Bureau does nav a dividend. There are divi- dends of two kinds, the dollar dividend; and the other the divi- dend which comes from spiritual obligation, if you would call 1t such. and which is not hard to credit on either the debit or credit side of your ledger &C., count.
 Anticipated Results
 How could you possibly estimate the saving from an accident pre- vented when you have not the slightest idea whether the accident might cost a leg, human life or the destruction of property. One might as well attempt to set up a debit because of the hurricane which has just recently lashed the Atlantic coast with it's terri fic loss of life and property.
 It is impossible to set up de- finite balance from safety work but we dc know that accident cost is relatively a diminishing item.
 Getting back to the first type of dividend, the dollar dividend. The potential saving in car in- surance rates if every car in Wa erbury was insured would run in excess of a half million dollars.
 A direct example of this saving is one which a well known busi- ness man drew to my attention recently he stated: Superinten- dent, I have your Accident Pre- vention Bureau and Accident Squad to thank for the money I am now saving on my insurance
The Waterbury Democrat., 1939-02-10

rates. Back in l936 paid $lsos5 tor insurance on my car, this was 6 coverage of 10 and 20 public liability and 5000 property dan- age. a $l00.00 deductible clause on collision and also fire and theft. With the first reduction I re. ceived I increased my public liability from the 10 and 20 to IS and 20 and even with this in- crease I was still saving money for in 1887 l paid $106.85. With you fellows still reducing accidents I got another decrease and paid $81.9e for the same coverage in 1888. With this I got an induce ment to become a safe driver. Fifteen percent would be related to me if didn't have an accident and I didn't so $8.85 will be re- mitted to me shortly. All of these reductions have given me a saving of $57.8S. Now with this new re- duction of thirteen and a half percent, certainly have to show my appreciation to your men by boosting their work to all of my friends and asking them to give their cooperation to the work the police are doing for there Is no question of doubt they are cer- tainly doing q fine job"
 Money Dividens
 From this concrete example you can really see just what has been saved in money dividends by the accident reduction in Waterbury which has been brought about by the combined efforts of the Ac. cident Prevention Bureau and Inc vestigating Squad.
 Insurance is now within the reach of every car-owner,s pocket book, don't be without it. Protect yourself and the other fellow. We are not attempting to solicit busi- ness for any insurance company but we have seen the misery and suffering brought about by 90. cidents and the worry and trouble that the motorist without finan- cial protection has, therefore, it is our recommendation to all car owners to insure your cars now and end the worry and trouble I have just mentioned.
 We have done our part. the insurance companies have done theirs by reducing rates so now 1t

fore him-the late Prince of the As- turias and Don Jaime. Of course, Asturias was a "bleeder" and Jaime was deaf and dumb, but these things did not rule them out.
 Juan grew up strong and healthy. In 1880 he entered the Spanish Naval College at Cadiz where he be- came a favorite with his fellow stu dents because he had no side and no frills.
 When the revolution broke out in 1881, he left Cadiz and came to Eng land where he applied for admis- sion to the British navy. He was posted to the cruiser Enterprise, which was stationed in Indian waters,
 It was while serving on this ship that he received message from his parents notifying him that he was now the heir to the throne. This be- came so because the Prince of the Asturias renounced the throne to marry a Cuban girl and become sira- pie Count of Covadonga and because Don Jaime renounced all rights be- cause of his increasing disabilities.
 Nevertheless Don Juan continued in the British navy. He served on the Iron Duke" until 1885, then go- ing to the destroyer winchester and being promoted to the rank of lieutenant. Later he was placed on the reserve list of officers. The Brit ish admiralty probably thought 1t wise to do so because of the conflict in Spain.
 At any rate Don Juan went to Rome, where his father has been living for some years. october 12, 1885, he married his second cousin, Princess Maria Mercedes of Bouf- bon-Sicily. They now have two chil- dren-two-year-old Maria del Pilar, and son and heir to the throne if throne there be-Don Juan Car los. born last year.
