Guard Officer Urges Fast
Action in Organizing
Defense Unit.

A control center from which
Ely's civilian defense corps
will operate was being set up
this week, and two officers of
the state guard are here COM
pleting the organization of
the corp and an air raid spot
ting system.
Waino Somero, city engi-
neer, has been namedexecutive
officer in charge of the defense
corps staff, w. P. Wolff, corps COM
mander, announced at a conference
Tuesday night attended by members
of the city council, the civilian de-
tense council, and one of the state
guard officers.
Present were 1t. C. L. Fleming,
Duluth, in charge of communications
in establishing control centers in this
district, and Ray Woods, Virginia, exc
cutive secretary of the range civilian
defense council.
LII. Clarence D. Hanson has been
here for several weeks working with
Frank Schweiger, chief air raid OBJ
server, in setting up spotting sys-
tenn in the fourth commissioner dis
trict. The two conducted a meeting
in Cook Tuesday night.
The seriousness of the emergency
U
range area, including Duluth, must
prepare to meet was emphasized by
Lieutenant Fleming.
No one can predict, he said, when
the territory may come under enemy
attack by long-range bombers.
He declared that all auxiliary SER
vices of the defense corps here must
be Immediately completed and pre-
pared to cope with the results of
such an attack if and when it comes.
There is not one person
in Ely who does not have a
part in civilian Defense" he
said.
Woods said that from 400 to 500
persons would be incorporated in the
city'S defense units before the organ
ization was completed.
This territory, he pointed out, has
already been declared a critical area.
eff there is any territory that might
be subject to enemy bombing it is
this one," he emphasized. Both Ger
many and Japan, he said, have the
planes that could reach the iron range
with loads of bombs.
"Civilian Defense" he declared, sis
just as important to winning the war
as are the boys in uniform"
Both he and Lieutenant Fleming
credited civilian defense organizations
with saving England when she was
under air attack by Germany early in
the war;
Woods urged the city council to
Immediately adopt an ordinance giving
police authority to the auxiliary SER
vices of the defense council so that
they could effectively operate the city
in event of an incident.
From the control center now being
established will be directed the reg
ular and auxiliary fire and police SER
vices, rescue squads, air raid wardens,
fire watchers, emergency food and
housing units, emergency medical div
ision, warning and blackout systems,
utility services, and other units Of the
u -
air attack
Auxiliary police have completed
their first aid training, and auxiliary
| firemen and air raid wardens started
their training this week.

TAKES BIG RISK
BY JACK CUDDY

NEW YORK, Feb. 20. up
Ray Sugar Robinson, Harlcm's
Little Joe Louis" risks boxing's
biggest winning streak and a shot
at the worlds WelterWcight cham
pionShip tonight when he battles
rugged Make Berger in a schcd-
uled l2-round bout at Madison
Square Garden.
The 21-year-old Negro is a Al
layOritc to register his ll7th
straight victory and his 28th con-
&ccutivc professional triumph. And
INC odds are even that he kayocs
the former Canadian lightweight
ard WcltcrWeight champion.
A crowd of 1860 and Il gate of
$30,O0O are expected. The national
lnfantile paralysis foundation will
receive a share of the receipts
Robinson was conceded an edge
in speed and punching power while
Berger was expected to hold an
approximate four pound weight ad-
vantage The winner undoubtedly
will get a shot at the 147-pound
title held by Freddie CRed) Coch-
ranC
RobinSons rise has been rapid
a;nce he turned professional in Oc-
tcbcr, 1910, after winning SO
straight amateur fights. OF his 81
pro victories he has Wor q by
knockOuts. His most recent victory
was over Fritzie Ziyic, the former
WCltelWcight king.
Berger, at %. is the best Can
adian in the ring today and drew
much support because of his awk-
ward style and unusual stamina
2om in Weymouth, Nova Scotia
he has had almost 100 bouts.
Although a resident of New York
for the past three years, Berger
is anxious to give his ratiVe Nova
Scotia its second world boxing
championship. The Old time Negro
fCatherweight king, George Dixon
was born in Halifax.

I believe that Imperial Valley
high schools play just as good a
brand Of basketball as the teams
around the coast. Anyway, if clash.
es this season between valley schools
and those from the San Diego sec
tor are any indication they do.
Thus far this season FL Centre
high school has hOstcd two of the
supposedly superior teams from
the coastal city and III one game
the Spartans were easy victOrS
and could probably very easily
have won the other. PIT. Iona
came TO FL Centre to play and
cagcrs from that school were sent
home after stinging defeat at
the hands of the SpartanS, Sec
ond- placers in the valley league.
In another game here. the Spart-
ans lost to GrOSSmOnt high by one
point but should have triumphed.
Coach Raleigh Holt only used his
first string Ell Centre players for
one half and the GrOssmOnt squad
was only able to win in two over
time periods.
Remember that the Spartans arc
holding down second spot too, be
hind the CalcXico Bulldogs in The
race for the valley title. What il
the Bulldogs had been matched
against either of the san Diego
teams?
Anyway, sports fans arc going tC
have another chance to judge tho
relative merits of valley and coas'
teams Saturday afternoon Whcl
the SparlmS again welcome visitors
This time it will be La Jolla hi9l
school that Will invade the county

ICIO ELECTION
 | SEE.SAW AFFAIR
DriscOll ReCaptures Lead Polling 7l0 to Robin.
 sons IOS in AnsOnia

The seesaw election for the presi- dency of the c. I. o. Mine, Mill & Shelter Workers union yesterday saw Waterbury's John J. Driscoll recapture the lead he held earlier in the week by polling 7i0 votes to Reid Robinson's 105 in Q referendum election held at the American Brass Go. Ansonia.
 The Ansonia vote boosts the Dris- coll total to 1857 as compared with 1 .l8l for the incumbent. The Dris- coll plurality of l76 votes was com piled in the elections of six locals which have signified their prefer ence to date.
 Noteworthy is the fact that the Ansonia election, like the one in Bristol, was conducted on factory premises, In open defiance of the in- ternational executive boards ruling that such procedure Is unlawful. The Driscoll packers are now awaiting a judgment on their appeal that the ruling be nullified because of trans portation difflculties. AS matters stand however, 1t is possible that the votes cast in Bristol and Ansonia may be ruled out which would be an irreparable loss to the local mans candidacy.
 William McEwan, president of the Ansonia Local 445, yesterday em' phasized the point. "The board hal no authority under the constitution to act as 1t did" He added that his union is prepared to defend Its ac' ton.
 Final outcome of the election which will continue until Nov. l5 is said to hinge on results of the balloting of Waterbury's five locals and of Local No. in Butte, Mont. home of Robinson and @ third can' didate, James Byrnes. Driscoll back. CTS are confident that Byrnes will split the Butte vote and enable Dris- coll to gain a victory.
 Angelo Sardi of Torrington Is run ming behind o. M. Marine of Lange- 10th, Pa. according to early results in the contest for international ex- ecutive member of district 6. Mar ino, who has endorsed Driscoll's candidacy, has compiled 705 votes to Sardi's 406. Sardi Is known to be a Robinson man.

ties that would expand the eo1n- munity service of the institution. MT. Mtnk's letter reads:
 '@The Executive committee of the Bristol Hospital has decided t would be idle to try to build the addition at this time. The details of handling the situation we can work out in the near future. VIII you please advise whether you re- quire formal withdrawal from the Federal grant under these condi- tions. We have decided to make the best of the situation and have d1s- cussed and want to put into action the following program:
 we hope to take the present nurses home and run ramps to the main hospital thereby increasing our capacity by about 35 beds. We are looking for one or two private houses nearby to use as a temporary nurses home.
 "We find that even such . simple change-over will require certain hospital equipment which we have boiled down to the very minimum. I strongly urge that your Agency consider granting us assistance in getting this vitally necessary equip ment, without which we will be in very bad shape" I
 An attachment to the letter signed by F. L. Sanborn, the hospital superintendent, lists in this equip ment such items as sterilizers and oxygen tents.
