Familiar to ahnost every sports- man, particularly in the Midwest, is the tlunderstorm, heralded us- nally by the slow alSpearance above the horizon of a big, un- broken cloud of a deep blue-black.

If the wind rose the day before, with a stiff breeze in the afternoon, it's only plai sense to anticipate another such rise for the following afternoou if the fair, settled weather is contimdng. One interesting thing about predicting weather is that a lot of the old, scoffed-at weather su- perstitions aren't superstitions at all. but are actually pretty darn reliable. Red sunsets and rain- bows late in the day do mean fair weather. A ring' around the moon or a steady southeast wind often foretell wet weather.

The difference between good printing and poor printing is not in the price you pay but in the skill of the printer you choose. It costs an unskilled and careless printer just as much to do a sloppy job as it does a good printer to do a job worthy of his ability. We have been printing for many years. We have kept up with the changing trends of printing style and we feel that we can safely may that our work competes wi£h te best, not only in quality but in cost.

Football Season Approaches, Young Men Begin Plans Football season is almost here, and the young men already are making plans to build a strong team for Irene S. Reed High School. Coaches Red Smith Civet Dom- broski and Grant Packard have announced that the initial meeting of all players will be at 10 o'clock the morning of Monday, August 31. Equipment will be issued on that day• During August the coaches re- mirM the bigskin gladiators that "early seasou conditioning is im- portant before the first week of turnout. You should bcgin short workouts not later than August 20, by getting the legs, abdominal lnusclcs and shonlders in shape. "A little road work, with short sprints for the legs and the usual football grass drills as body build- ers would be sufficient. Pre-sea- soft work of this nature is val- uable to offset the soreness and stiffness of muscles which face our athletes during the first two, weeks of practice, and at the sanf time gives us a jnmp on others so far as conditioning is concerned." The high school Football Jam- boree will take place on Septem- ber 16, followed by the first home game a week later, on September 2:3. To all the young fellows the co;lobes say, "We are looking for- ward to a successful season and we hope it will be a challenging one to you in every respect." PACIFIC COAST LEAGUE %V. L.'
