WOBBLE OF EARTH is
LAID TO SHIFTING AIR

LONDON.-(AP)-The earth'S
wobble, observed long ago by as
tronomers, has been traced to
great air masses which accumu-
late over Europe and Asia dur
ing the winter and roll back to-
wards the oceans in the summer,
SAYS the Soviet Science News.
The publication records a re-
port by V. Shuleikin to the Sow
let Academy of Sciences on the
results of study of seasonal at
mospheric fluctuations Shulei-
kin and his colleagues estimate
there are 800 billion tons more
air over Europe and Asia in win
ter than in summer. The great
movement of this air, they say,
gives rise to late frosts in spring
and Indian summer in autumn.
The shifting weight is so great,
they add, that it causes the earth
to wobble.

Crampina His Style

Down in a certain Southern
community, "a negro revival
meeting was holding forth. Also
in session was the grand jury.
Sinners were being gathered in
swiftly and efficiently by the eX-
horting preacher, That is. all ex-
cept one hardened individual
who, despite all the efforts OF the
earnest shepherd and his CO.
workers, would not break down
and confess his sin.
The poor fellow Wreathed IN
the torments of an awakened and
cruelty prodding conscience, but
could not be induced to speak.
Come on down, brother,
shouted the pleading, perspirlng
preacher, confess your sins. The
Lord will forgive you
"Ah knows He WILL" moaned
the reluctant candidate, but de
Lawd amt settin' on dat gran
iury!"

FOLLOWING
THROUGH
PEDRO AGuILAR


The All-Star club picked by
this writer, as published in The
Citizen Wednesday. was based
ON the batting and fielding rec
ords of the players and how they
performed in league games:
Catcher-Castro played with
Machinists and VFW, batted 800.
Sterling led the league in hitting
and home runs and runs batted
| in. William Gates, at second,
played a bang-up brand OF ball.
Al third, Mario Hernandez batted
! 1886 and played swell. Baker,
at short, was picked on account
of his fighting qualities, for he
is always in the game and plays
hard. Navarro, shortstop, batted
.43O, and Baker at the same po-
sition, hit only 800. This spot
was toss-up, so l put Navarro
as a sub infielder. Kerr, at right
field, hit 1885. Mccarthy, in cen
ter, hit 1855. Radio" Carey hit
.44O. Jack Villareal, as sub out
fielder on the All-Star club, hit
.346 and batted out four home
runs and was sparkplug in the
Legion lineup. Dutch Goehring,
as manager of the city champs,
was picked to pilot the first
team.
On the second club, Frank
Sands batted 1874. Bo Meador
hit .437. Santana poled the ball
at a 1926 clip and played great
fielding game. J. Carbonell, at
short, was a little erratic at times
but played we'll generally. Dam
ny Lastres was also erratic but
socked the ball for 400 average.
]. Garcia got the nod for sub in
fielder for his hitting when hits
were needed. Barber hit 1885 to
get the nod for rightfield and j,
Ogden for center hit .354. Has
kins hit $50 and Floyd Villareal
sub-outfielder when he hit 1882
for the season. Malgrat played
great game but could not place
him at second, third or first, so
] / had to give him honorable men,
ton. Alonzo hit 1856, r. Valdez
and Fito Lastres played we'll but
II had to place them on the honor
roll. In the box, Frank Tynes,
Buster Roberts, Hancock, Chester
Harris. M. Arias, Parks, Rosam,
and f. Sweeting pitched some
good games, so had to pick them
on the two leading clubs.

Simple

It's surprising" said the pro-
lessor to his wife at breakfast,
TO think how ignorant we all
are. Nearly every man is a spe-
cialist in his own line, and in con-
sequence we are all as narrow
minded as it is possible to be-. ;
Yes, DEAR" said his wife.
II. for instance" he continued,
"am ashamed of my failure to
keen abreast with modern
science. Take electric light, for
example. l haven't the least idea
how it works"
His wife gave him a patronlz-
ing look, and smiled.
"Why, Hubert, I'm ashamed OF
YOU. too. It's simple! You just
nress a switch, and that's ALL"

Stunning Blonde
Hooks Stunning
Fish Off Key Vest

A stunning blonde from
Cocoa. Fla. Mrs. E. E. Lewis,
Yesterday caught one of the
largest dolphins ever hooked
in Key West waters. The fish.
a 40-pounder. measuring 4
feet. TIA inches in length.
was the first fish of any
kind ever caught by Mrs.
Lewis.
The slender. ll0-pound
visitor fought the big fellow
for DO minutes before land
ing him aboard Captain Red
Maxwell's "Heidi-Ho." Aft
er being hooked. the dolphin
took TO the air and whipped
back and forth above the
wafer as much as he did
through it.
Mrs. Lewis was accom-
panied by her husband. a
citrus grower near Cocoa.
They will leave for their
home today. Mrs. Lewis
is believed to be either a
Key West record for dol
phins. or very close to the
record.

Spring In Training

A young medical inferno had a
habit of walking past the psyche
ward each morning. In the yard
of the ward one of the inmates
was always going through the
motions of winding up and pitch
inc an imaginary ball.
"Why do you stop every morn
inc and watch that screwbaH go
through his pitching motion?
one of the doctors friends finally
asked him.
Well" he replied, ''if things
keep going the way they are, III

Laughing Herman Buiskoll OF
Kalamazoo, Michigan, had heard
much of roping steers and hog
tying calves. but to lasso fish
was somp'n he hadn't dreamed
of until he came to Key West,
where anything can happen in
salt water fishing.
From the Sea Raider" with
Captain Lefty Reagan and George
Bassett, he hooked a big Is
pound barracuda and was mere
ly feeling pleased when it hap
pened. The frenzied fish jumped
clear of the sea, fouJed itself in
the line, tied knot around it's
own tail.
In the cockpit with him was
Mrs. Buiskool. Luckily. he has
her to back him when he tells
the tale back home.
In the party also was re-
ticent Harold ,Stearns of Mon
treal, Canada, and the amiable
Sherwood Forrest, furniture job
Der of High, Point, N. c., who
caught four barracudas and a
big macke rel. Both are guests at
the La CcJncha.
The big catch also included a
22-pourid albacore, three To-
pound imackerel and three crop
ers. ,fvan's Photo Service was
called for the picture.
j. Pokorney of Carvandale,
Pennsylvania, who was with the
same party the following day,
Saturday, was pleased enough
with "a barracuda and a lot o
sunshine" he said.
