form as they countered every Vik-
ing thrust in the game on the Holt
vile field and scored almost at will.
During the game the Vikings net
ted a total of only 25l2 yards from
scrimmage. on running plays they
lost 1872 yards when the Spartan
linemen broke through the defense
time after time.
On most of the plays the Vike
backs were able only to return to
the line of scrimmage before they
were doWned.
HEFENSE HOLDS
The Holtville defense held the
Ell Centro offenSe in check during
the first quarter, with no touch
downs being made. A tumble in the
Spartan backfield cost them the
ball few minutes after the game
had started and the Vikings were
able to hold off several goal thrusts
by timely punting.
The Ell Centro team started their
relentless touchdown marches in
the second quarter, however, when
Lewis Jackson, left tackle, inter-
cepted one of Viking Quarterback
Junior Buckets passes on the o.
yard line. After one play Quarter
back Ed Alarcon heaved an 49,
yard aerial to End Hugh Littrell
for the first score.
ON THE WAY
The SpartanS were on their way.
Outstanding work by Harry Dillon,
Ell Centro left end, and Jack Small,
right guard, forced the Holtville
team to kick soon after they receiv-
ed the kickoff after the first score.
The punt was good only for IL
yards up to the Viking 80. A few
plays later Ed Wylie, right half
back, went over for the second Ell
Centre touchdown. The half ended
with Ell Centre leading, 1870.
The second half was almost a
repetition of the first, although
Coach Lou Birnbaum injected a
steady flow of Spartan substitutes.
Ed Alarcon went over from the
three-yard line for his second tally
Of the evening a few minutes after
Guard Ed Rice had recovered a
Holtville tumble OF, the Viking
2l-yard stripe.
HORTON SCORES
Fullback Leslie Horton made the
fourth FL Centre touchdown, sec
ond in the third quarter, on fake
spinner through the middle. He
went over from the four-yard line
after the Spartans had worked the
ball down the field on sparkling
reVerses and end sweeps.
The final touchdown was made

There was much talk that Coach
Lou Birnbaum poured it on the
Holtyille Vikings Friday night -
that he used his best men almost
the entire game. We dent think so.
The records show that Birnbaum
used % men in the game, only five
less than three complete teams. It's
true that II of the Spartans played
a little more than half but Of the
II, seven of the boys were second
or third string players.
The trouble IS that FL Centre has
a large squad of players and just
about any of them were better than
the green Holtville boys Friday
night. Two touchdoWns were made
when almost all the second team
were in the game.
GOT IN GAME
Here are the boys from FL Centre
who got in the game Friday:
Centers-Archie Dessert and
Jim Bailey; left guards-Ed Rice,
Carol Childers and John COrf-
man; right guards-Jack Small
and Jim Atkins; left tackles -
Lewis Jackson, Melvin WOmack
and j. Blakely; right tackles -
Frank Dessert and Jim Small;
left ends - Harry Dillon, Waily

ends-Dick Carr, Hugh Littrell

Ed AlarcOn and Ray Osa; left
halfbacks - Ray Muncill, Oscar
Hester and Harvey Lyons; right
halfbacks-Ed Wylie, Nolan Har-
vey and Bill Henderson; full
backs-Leslie Horton and Stanley
Jacobs.
SECOND STRINGERS
OF the second stringers who got
in the game we liked Stanley Jac-
obs. His plunging and hard drives
through the center netted several
yards for the Spartans in the clos
ing moments Of the game.

Brown Sees Big Loss
To u. ). in Bill 10 Aid
Small Business
Senator Says, However,
He Will GO Along
And Support Measure
BY the Associated Press,

By the Associated Press.
Senator Brown, Democrat, Of
Michigan predicted today a large
proportion of Government loans for
war production would be lost If
pending $100,000,000 small busi-
ness aid bill is enacted.
He said the entire basis for Gov
ernment loans by the Reconstruc-
ton Finance Corp. as well as the
proposed new Smaller War Plants
Corp. was changed by the pending
measure.
There are going to be heavy
losses" Senator Brown declared in
an interview. "a large part of this
new 500, 100000 fund will be lost" !"
When the r. F. C. first began
making loans to business, he re-
called, Congress ordered a policy Of
full and adequate security" He
said this later was liberalized to
reasonable assurance OF repay
ment."
Willing to Support Measure.
The Senate bill, Senator Brown
said, authorized r. F. C. loans "for
any purpose deemed to be ad-
vantageous to the national defense"
while loans to small plants and
factories for war production open
the doors Of Treasury"
Despite these criticisms, the Mich
igan Senator said he was ready
~ oo oIoy,r xxyift, nfIar vy1pcnrc
Of the measure approved by the
Senate committees on small busi-
ness and banking and currency.
Chairman Murray of the small
business group agreed to delay final
Senate action on the measure until
today, after six hours of argument
yesterday, when Senator Bailey,
Democrat, of North Carolina sought
to restrict the purpose of the $780,
100000 loan fund.
Senator Bailey asked that loans
be limited to articles essential to
national defense" while Senator
Murray protested that flexibility was
needed.
Senator Brown told the Senate he
had failed In an effort to get the
Banking Committee to let r. F. c.,
under Jesse Jones, Secretary of Com
merce and former federal loan ad-
ministrator, handle these loans in
stead Of the new corporation which
would be under Chairman Donald
Nelson of the War Production Board.
IL Billions Advanced.
r. r. c., Senator Brown told the
Senate, already had advanced $l1,-
494. .oO6 900 for the war and defense
effort. He said an R. F. C. subsid-
tary, Defense Plants, Corp, had
placed 100000 for facilities
to produce planes, tanks, mag
nesium, steel, aluminium and many
other war essentials.
The Senator said r. r. c. agencies
had acquired $4,000 tons of rubber,
more than normal years supply,
and already had authorized loans to
build facilities for production of 700,-
600 tons of synthetic rubber annual
ly. He said materials to produce
80 900 tons of this rubber would go
to contractors this year, enough for
production of 250,000 tons of rubber
by June, 1943, and the full capacity
by the end Of 1943.

AN AUSTRALIAN PORT, April 1.
Il have just arrived here from the

has successfully run the Japanese

ships and sighted on two occasions
by enemy planes.
Now this vessel Is safe in port

was with party OF other Britons
who escaped from Manila before the
japanese occupation and have been
serving with United States forces
in civilian capacities. They are
now on their way to join up with
British forces.
Game of Hide and Seek.
Not only did we manage to evade
capture and sinking in the narrow
ter-island waterways Of the Phil
ippines to which the Japanese
recently sent naval reinforcements
to intensity their blockade, but we
sailed the high seas boldly in broad
daylight right through Japanese sea
lanes and supply routes.
We played grim game Of hide
and seek among the island-strewn
inland seas.
Since our hideouts were mostly
chosen In hidden coves we were
afforded the opportunity of getting
ashore at remote places not often
visited by Europeans.
We were agreeably surprised to find
that the Filipinos whom we met not
only spoke excellent English but
also were astonishingly well in
formed on current events although
they were far removed from the
battle zones.
Villages Listen to Radio.
At one isolated coconut-studded
island we found a crowd Of villagers
gathered around their one radio set
from which resounded the boom of
Big Ben during a B. B. G. news
broadcast.
without exception all the Filipinos
we met were stalwartly pro-Allied.
Our captain on more than one
occasion cleverly outmaneuvered
enemy craft sighted on the horizon.
We slept in our clothes with our
boots on and nfejackets within easy
reach. Several times we dashed to
boat stations as the ships alarm
sounded.
