HOROSCOPE "The stars incline
 but do not compel"
WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 4

Conflicting planetary aspects are active today. The morning is under benefic sway and should be the time for important work. Later in the day labor comes under influ- ences causing unrest and discon- tent.
 HEART AND HOME: Women to- day are under fortunate direc- tion of the stars which is believed to promote their special aspira- tions and interests. It is an aus picious date for love affairs, es- pecially where army men are con- cerned. This is a time when the desire for recreation will be domin ant and workers are warned to re- sist the temptation to seek amuse- ment which causes absence from regular tasks. Unusual weather is prognosticated for many parts of the country Summer heat will pre- vail and severe storms are fore- cast.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Undue op- timism regarding an early close of the war may cause merchants to make unwise preparations for post war trade. Again astrologers fore tell prolongation of conflict long after the inevitable victory of the United Nations has been assured by this years globe -circling battles. Plans for peacetime reconstruction of world commerce must be made with adherence to the pattern of the four freedoms Elimination of want is to engage the chief atten- tion of many experts in economics who will find the first food con- ference confusing in its breadth of aspiration. However, it is predicted that there will be plenty of time for careful scientific planning
 NATIONAL ISSUES: American minorities that are slow in realiz- ing the imperative need of sacrifice for war aims will be much criti- cized at this time Banned pleasure driving and black markets will pro- long the period of enjoying life as usual but events as well as the law will impress upon careless minds the full meaning of national re- sponsibility Many who have been deprived of the honor of sending loved ones to defend democracy will discover that they cannot avoid suffering and sacrifice, the seers declare
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of fair fortunes. Domestic happiness is presaged and there will be es- cape from dangers.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be endowed with artis- tic talents. They should combine with gifts for music and writing practical point of view.

some derogatory remarks and said it was a good thing the Vice Presi- dent was busted.
 Whereupon Representative John- son got a call from the most pow erful man in his congressional dis trict, Publisher Charley Marsh. Marsh owns the Austin American and Austin Statesman in Johnson's home town, together with other newspapers in other parts of Texas. Marsh also helped manage John- sons campaign for the Senate against Pappy ODaniel.
 So Johnson went pronto down to the Washington residence of Charley Marsh. Emerging later, a friend heard him remark, T didn't mean anything at all really like Henry Wallace"

The WUMPSAre

The war brought the WAVES.

WUMPS.
The WUMPS are women umpireS
who will work games for the ma
tional Semi-pro baseball congress
next summer The first WUMP to-
be commissioned is Lorraine Helm
isch, Kenosha, who received her
orders yesterday from Ray Dumont
OF Wichita, Kan, president of the
semi-pro organization.
Lorraine, 20, currently is work
ing on the swing shift in the test
ing laboratory of Kenosha war
plant.
Some of her neighbors call her
"tom-boy' because she formerly
served as a battery mate for her
brother, Horald, %, who now is q
private in the Army Air Corps at
Clearwater, Fla. The new WUMP's
reaction to her appointment was
typically feminine, however
I'm SO excited I hardly know
what to say she said II wrote

anything. I was afraid I'd never
get reply from the congress. Then
came the letter from Mr.. Dumont.

BY JACK CUDDY

NEW YORK, Feb. 20. - CUP)-
We are convinced now that service
boxers-men in uniform - should
not be matched with civilian fight
ers of the same apparent ability in
commercial bouts.
This conviction was tamped down
and zippered up last night when
we saw ring-rusty Sgt. Jackie Will
son of the Mitchell Field, NY, air
base drop a close l0-round decision
to Young Ray Robinson of Har-
lem.
Unouestionably, Wilson would
have won this bout if he were
sharp" AS it was, he came close.
1t was split decision in which
one of the judges voted a draw. But
Wilson was off form. His Judgment
of distance was pathetic. He miss
ed more punches than he landed.
And his instructive reactions to
targets as inviting as Tokyo were
as dull as a schoolboy's "ummbly-
peg knife.
FIELD NOT STILL
1t SINNERS down to this: In no
field does a human being stand
still. One either improves or goes
back. It's the same in boxing as
piano playing or operating ma
chine in a defense plant. Practice
makes perfect. You've got to
keep practicing to retain your in
stinctive adroitness.
A large section of the public re-
CARDS prize fighting as an alb
horent method of making a living
a field in which only men with
bull-necks and prominent hair
blued jaws and muscular, barn
door swings can make living.
But that Interpretation is entirely
wrong.
NEED GOOD BODY
It's true that one should have
a good body to be successful prize
fighter. And one must learn the
fundamentals of the manly art, just
as one must learn the fundament-
ais of riding a bicycle or operat-
ing an adding machine.
A schooling in those fundament-
ais is taken for granted when one
reaches the higher brackets of pro-
fessional boxing In the upper
stratum of pugilism it is the artis-
try that counts. 1t is the hair
trigger things that make the diff
ference between champion and
challenger, regardless of ones
physical and mental assets.

is GREAT FIGHTER
Sgt. Jackie Wilson, Negro who
apparently is a great fighter, was
off key last night like a muSicianl
out of practice. He gave one Of
the greatest demonstrations of rug
gedneSS we ever saw when floored
and "moidered' for nearly three
minutes of the fourth round. His
mitigating was superb against theV
fastest youngster in any division.
But he was rusty from lack of
competition and daily training
against good sparmates. With a
war on, a sergeant at Mitchell
Field has other things to do be-
sides keeping sharp for the ring.

University of Southern California
cinched the southern-d division Pac-

Imperial Valley press., 1943-02-21

they built up a tremendous lead
over the eventual winners OF the
game and looked easily the better
of the teams in the first minutes
of play.
The Spartans, who met the Bull
dogs in a regularly scheduled SER
vice non service league game. were
listleSs throughout the entire first
quarter.
The border team played good ball
then and built up 1914 lead at the
end of the first quarter.
Coach Clarence Anderson of Ell
Centre was forced TO shuttle and
reshuffle his lineup several times
before he could find a team that
would click.
ORDERED TO QUIT
Big Bob Graham, who had been
ordered to quit basketball once this
season by his doctor because of a
bad appendix condition, proved to
be the star of the game. He bounced
through II points from his center
position to lead scoring on both
teams. If the doctor hadn't reversed
his decision and allowed Graham to
inlay again, things might really have
been bad for the Spartans Friday
night.
Lewis Jackson, regular Spartan
center, has been called for army
service.
Little Nolan Harvey, Spartan for
ward, found the bucket in the last
! half of the game to score Is points
/ and grab second scoring honors.
PROVES SURPRISE
Roy Blakely proved the surprise
of the game when he filled in one
of the guard spots for the FL Centre
team and played like a veteran. He
had been a member of the Spartan
Juniors, reserve team.
After the first quarter Anderson
was able to find a lineup to suit
him and in the next period the
CaleXico team did not score point.
From 1914 against them the Spart-
ans brought the count to 24-16 in
their favor at the half-time rest.
Guard Fred Brown proved the
most consistent point-maker for the
Bulldogs, scoring IA points. Albert
Ramirez, the other guard, made
seven. Ralph Samaha, forward and
only remaining member of the 1941
Calexico team that was chosen for
All-Valley honors in a group. scored
six points.

CARDINAL PRExY

ST. LOUIS, Feb. 90 - CUP) -
President Sam Breadon Of the ST
Louis Cardinals indicated today
that he expected the Texas League
to disband tor the duration.
Breadon, emphasizing the diff
culties of operating the Cardinals
extensive farm system since the
loss of 265 players to the armed
services, told a meeting of farm
club officials that we will do our
best to take care of players on the
Houston roster if the Texas League
should disband
His remarks and the absence of
a Houston club representative as
plans for the coming season were
discussed were regarded as indica-
tions that Breadon expects the mi
nor loop to fold He also said that
122 players of the Redbird farm
organization had been inducted
since the close of the 1912 season.
