against the Bulldogs and 25 yards
against Central.
PLAYS USED
The old Statue of Liberty play
was used to advantage by the bor-
der boys, as well as a triple pass
play that worked like a clock. but
it was the man in motion with a
pass or ground play coming from
any cne of three backfield stars
that did the trick for CaleXico.
El Centro made one first down,
and that with the help of penalty
compared to CaleXico's eight. The
Spartans failed to complete a single
pass and gained a total of 38 yards,
excepting run-backS of kicks. CaleX-
leo completed 13 passes cut of 27
tries, a record many a college would
be proud of, gaining a total of 274
yards from passes and scrimmage.
Each team fumbled twice and each
fumbled and recovered twice.

Bv MARJORIE KINDER

A hardfighting but outplayed III
Centro team went down TO defeat,
200, before a fast and elusive CaleX-
ice squad Friday night at the local
stadium in a game that featured
passing and broken-field running
by the border team. coached by Les
Boyle.
The first score was set up in the
initial play when Yturralde ran
back Kit Carson's Kickoff for about
so yards. and the Bulldogs soon
went the rest of the way through
the Spartans for a touchdown. A
pass attempt at conversion failed.
Another long run-back of kick
off at the beginning Of the third
quarter put the border boys well
into Central territory on Central's
35-yard line. Felix went over for six,
followed by a 20-yard run by
Gutierrez that brought fans to their
feet. A penalty on CaleXico threat
ened to halt their march but Cutter
rez followed with a pass to Felix,
who went over for the score. Finn
bres passed TO Padilla for the con-
version, making the score 1870.

KEPT ON GOING

There was no stopping the Bull
dogs now and at the start OF the
fourth quarter. Fimbres threw one
OF his short, bullet passes to Cutter
rez. who made the most sensational
run OF the game, so yards, through
the FL Centro team for the third
touchdown. Superb interference was
a big factor in the play, but when
tacklers did get through, Gutierrez
side-stepped or outran them. He
caught another pass to convert,
bringing the score to 300.
A fine example of good sports
manship was set in the last touch
down play by Spartan Coach John
Lewis. who questioned the decision
of the officials when theystarted to
call back the scoring play.
El Centre came close TO scoring
early in the game when Patterson
intercepted a pacs by F'imbres and
ran so yards for first down on the
Calexico 10-yard marker. After Nc
Ouade had one try and Henry two
at the line. Henry tried to pass to
Patterson. but it was incompleted
and the ball went to CaleXico on
downs.
Both teams threatened several
times and CaleXicC was held off
three times by a stiffened Spartan
line. Penalties added up to 70 yards

Ration Board
ReOrganlzed

The local war price and ration
ing board has been completely
reorganized and its member ship
enlarged in order to give the cit
liens of the county better service,
according to E. j. Sutherland,
chairman of the board, as he re-
leased for publication the names
of the new members who have
been recently appointed by BE.
Goodwin, district OPA director
of the Roanoke office.
The amount of work in handl-
ing the increasing number of ap-
plications for gasoline, tires. food
and the other rationed conmodi-
ties has made it necessary to have
additional help on the board, Mr..
Sutherland explained. Nomina-
tons of the new members were
submitted to Mr.. Goodwin by
Elmer Poore, county coordinator
of the Office of Civilian Defense.
Particular attention is called to
the new panel plan under which
the board was reorganized. There
will be three panels consisting of
three or more members, and each
panel will meet once week to
consider applications, which will
no longer be passed upon by in
dividual members of the board.
The applications will be left at
the board before the meetings and
the ration books and certificates
granted by the panels will be
mailed soon after each meeting.
Many applications, especially re-
newals, can be handled by mail
and thus save the citizens of the
county vluablea time and travel.
Mr.. Sutherland, chairman of
the board since it's organization,
will head up the new board as
general chairman. Members of
the new panels will be as fol-

From "Over There

Sgt. Andy Beverly, now in Eng
land, irked by the reports of hard
ships back in the states, takes his
pen in hand and dashes off his
opinion of the situation in verse.
We are not so sure just what all
Sgt. Andy feels bad about, but as
he went through the North Afri-
ca and Sicily campaigns we are
sure that he has earned the right
to whatever he wants to say. The
verse follows:
To HI With The Third
Invasion
To ell with the third invasion,
To ell with another war;
Away with the smoke of battle,
WE want to live some more.
To ell with their tradition,
We've licked our share of Huns;
Let's make a slight addition,
Are we the only ones?
To ell with propaganda,
Of that we're overfed;
We don't want fame or glory,
tbs home we want instead.
We paid our share of taxes,
To live in the u. S. A. land;
And smashed our share of Axis
It's time they understand
There are others living over there
They are Boosting what they do;
I think it's time they showed
their worth,
The rents are long over due.
So to ell with the third invasion
And they glory that they give,
We don't want the credit
Just one more chance to live.

Citizens Federation
Fights Buying Of Site
OF ChiIdrens Museum

Purchase of the Villa Rosa. site
of the Childrens Museum, out OF
District funds was opposed last
night by the Executive Committee
of the Federation of Citizens AS
sociation at meeting at the Dis
trict Building. The property re-
Gently was purchased by Samuel
Fig, liquor dealer.
The Executive Committee session
following the membership meeting
at which the lack of quorum
prevented the association from vot-
ing on a recommendation of its
Public Utilities Committee that
Gregory Hankin not be reappointed
as member of the Public Utilities
Commission.
In opposing District purchase of
the Villa Rosa, members of the
committee said they felt its loca-
ton would restrict its use only to
children in that section. The COM
mittee suggested the American
University Park and surrounding
area be surveyed to determine
whether a recreation center can be
developed there.
Mr.. Hankin's record was defended
by several members before Presi-
dent Harry S. Wender ruled that
the meeting lacked quorum to act
on the recommendation.
Delegate Percival j. Ableman de-
clared Mr.. Rankin'S motives were
above reproach and that his actions
on the PUG were due to his seeking
what was best for the District.
The association, noting that H.
500 homes here lack water meters,
asked the Commissioners to see that
meters are installed as soon as ma
terials are available. 1t was pointed
out that there are serious inequities
in water rates and charges on un-
metered properties. Wartime re-
strictions of critical materials have
caused the situation.
Overriding report of its Mem
bership Committee, the association
earlier in the meeting, when a quo
rum was present, admitted the
River Terrace Citizens Association |
to membership. The committee had
opposed the admittance on the
grounds that the River Terrace
group operated in the area of the
Bennings Citizens Association.
The organization approved a pc
tition of the Fairfax Village and
Summit Park Citizens Associations
to combine into one group to be
known henceforth as the Summit
Park-Fairfax Village Citizens AS
sociation.
