Football Heroes

There has never been year ID
valley league football when there
we're so many outstanding hne-
men. to make life miserable for
the backfiehd aces as there are In
the loop this season.
Take a glance down the rosters
Of the Holtville. Brawley FL Gen.
tro. Calexico and Imperial lineups
and YOU will spot half dozen
men who tip the scales close to or
above the 2OO-pound mark. FL Cen
tro. with lightest forward wall IN
the league, will Average close to
l65 pounds per man-Holtville has
the heaviest forward wall with an
average of l79.
IN the line of the defending
champion Calexico squad there is
Carlos Garlic, a 185-pound tackle
who was named on the all-valley
team one year ago. Garlic is big
strong and fast. Then there is Da-
vid Acuna, all-valley guard in 1888

who missed the honor team by
fraction one year ago. Acuna
having his best year.
For Brawley there is Harolt
Brownel. 190-pound center strons
on offense. one-man disaster OF
/ defense. Neal Jack, l7O-pouhe
tackle rates close to Brownel anf
Ulloa at end is no Slouch.
At Holtville Walter Zumstelr
and Manchester. a pair of go
pourd tackles. are the best defen-
sive linemen Holtville has had II
a dozen seasons. Leroy Ferguson
at center is among the best in the
league and sunni at end looks ike
all-valley material.
Imperial boasts Bob Havens at
center. a capable man on offense
and defense with Littlefield at
guard and Reynolds and Tell at
the ends to aid on defensive work.
Ell Centre, like Calexico and
Holtville. has two outstanding tack
les. stevenson and Longacre both
of whom tip the scales at 220
pounds. Stan Conkey, l9O-pound
reserve tackle is just as good. Fa-
bares and Console, though light,
are probably the fastest guards IN
the league.
So if you see your favorite back
field star to sprint toward the
line, then stop as suddenly as he
started. don't blame him, because
the valley league linemen are
tough this sason, and they like to
prove it at the expense of the ball
carrier
Sport Notes
Gene Oswalt El Centre quarter
back. has the best passing record
in the valley. He has completed
seven out of II tosSes, one for
touchdown. Lauro Andrade OF
Calexico is second best with four
completions in seven tries. He
also passed one touchdown.
Andrade, incidentally has the
best punting average with AZ yards
on every punt. Gene Maynard,
Holtville back, is the surprise run
ner of the league. He did a
splendid job in the Brawley game.
H NakaZoa, Imperial blocking
back. is the best secondary man on
the Tiger squad. and Otis King can
claim only a second spot in the
Imperial foursome. Martin Ma
varro is the boy they're watching
up Brawley way this season. A
chap named Williams isn't bad
Bill Patterson is the surprise
back of the e Centro grid squad.
In his first year on the varsity he
has become one of the leagues
trickieSt runners.
Warren Riedy of e Centre and
Lauro Andrade of Calexico are the
leagues leading scorers with seven
points, Five are tied for second
with six. Patterson, Garcia,
Otis, Williams and Navarro.

Start Exercising
Immediately for
New Fashions
BY PATRICIA LINDSAY.

I suggest you do these exercises
faithfully every day for . week and
then begin on q corrective schedule
like specific hip reducing or bust
lifting exercises.
Lie fat on your back with arms
at your sides. Bend both knees
up toward your chest and inhale as
you do so. Exhale as you thrust
legs back to original position. Then
bend only the right leg back to
your chest as you inhale and return
to position as you exha!e. Repeat
with left leg. Repeat entire exercise
five times.
Stand up against the wall in erect
posture with shoulders and small
of back touching-if possible, and
heels bit away from wall. Stretch
both arms high without taking heels
off the floor. Then bend forward
as far as you can, keeping your ell
bows behind your ears. BY pulling
in your abdomen, push your arms
and spine back to wall. Relax and
repeat this exercise ten times.
Kneel down on the floor. Sit
back so your buttockS touch your
heels. Stretch arms upward as far
as you can and bend over slowly
until your head touches your knees
and both palms are on the floor.
Bring body upward, remaining in
kneeling position, stretching high as
you rise. Exhale as you bend for
ward. inhale as you rise. Repeat
ten times.

Dorothy Dix Says >~>
Girl With Good Job Should Be
Particular in Picking Husband

Women are the worlds greatest
optimists. Especially about mar
rage. No old maid ever abandons
hope Of getting married until the
coffin lid is screwed down upon her
face. No rich old widow ever sus-
poets that young boy is marrying
her for anything but love alone. And
1t positively never occurs to any
woman that she could possibly mar
ry any man who wasn't rich, hand
some, romantic, domestic and a
great lover. All about them they
see their sisters, their cousins and
their aunts who have drawn hus-
bands who are drunkards, philan-
derers, ne'er -do-wells and what have
you out of the matrimonial grab bag,
but they are perfectly sure that
that couldn't happen to them. They
never doubt for an instant but that
they will marry Prince Charming
They never see themselves as the
poor, shabby, overworked household
drudges, with swarms of frowzy chill
dren clinging to their skirts, that so
many of their friends have become
since they married. No, indeed.
They are going to have model hus-
bands who will be gay and enter
tanning companions and who will
continually tell them how beautiful
and wonderful they are. They will
have lovely homes and cars and
shopping accounts at the best stores.
Their children will be little angels,
with golden curlS, who will never
be naughty or get themselves dirty.
And, like the heroines of the old
fashioned novels, they will live hap
py ever after when they are married.
This dope dream with which wo-
men delude themselves-that each
one Of them is a darling of the
gods who is going to make an ideal
MARRIAGES. one of the most
pathetic things on earth and for
two reasons.
The first Is that it is such a
heart-breaking disillusion when
