HOW ABOUT IT?
“The tiny line of wisdom at
I the corner of a womans’ eje is
the heart of her charm, midway
between first bloom and old age.’’
—Martin Borrrr.an, German writ
er.
“Nature is a blowsy. careless,
profoundly stupid old lady.’
—F. F. Van OeWater, essayist.
"Women have no fair chance
in the business workt yet. To say
they have is just 'Pollyanna
talk.’ "
“Get women together and they
talk about women. Get men to
gether and they talk about wo
men.’’
—Ruth Waterbury, writer.
NOW that the ladies have gone
the next visitors to the Valley
in group formation will be the
State Press Association members.
They are flocking to Corpus Christi
today, 170 being aboard the special
train which passed through San
Antonio enroute.
Saturday the 170 scribes will
swarm into Reynosa for a ban
quet there and Sunday the local
editors will drive them over the Val
ley.
The majority of these editors are
from the smaller Texas papers and
when they return they are going to
tell all about their trip. An editor
cannot help doing so, as witness
Arkansas.
As a result many in Texas will be
told things of their own southermost
comer of the state they did not
know before. There are still many
i in this state, who do not know that
] ... ->rnia has been surpassed, even
■^ihe ’‘unusual-'—as witness the

SPEAKING ol rmins, steerers of
Brownsville sandy achts these

lightly graveled driveways into their
garages.
Every night one has to decide
whether to try to creep into the
shed and get stuck, or to make a run
for It und tear down the door when

SAT by Z. A. Rosenthal at lunch
yesterday, and over the regula
tion desert of ice cream at the
El Jardin hotel heard that the street
signs have been purchased for
Brownsville.
That brings Joy to the souls of
many. There Is nothing like asking
for what you want. Now as soon
as they get them up. so everybody
can drive anywhere at night—with
out getting out and knocking on
doors to ask where they are—we
want to extend heartiest congratu
lations to the city commissionf«rs.
DOCTOR W. E. Reynolds of Cor
pus Christi in a very Interesting
address is telling local civic
clubs how to eat without digging
your grave with your own teeth.

The doctor passed out a little for
mula to the Rotarians, which we
think well to pass on to others:
m “An apple a day will keep the doc
tor away, a head of cabbage will
Bicep the dentist away, and an onion
^a day will keep everybody away.”
About the ony time false teeth
really appealed to the engineer of
this column was when the advice
came that to avoid them you must
eat a head of raw cabbage a day.

crowd yesterday and some one
sniggered.
Now. some times Arkansas is no
laughing matter. Man came along
up in the Ozarks and asked a little
boy where his father might be
found Little boy said he couldn't
tell. Man offered him a dollar to
tell. He got the information and
started off towards the thicket.
“Walt a minute—I want my dol

“No. I want it now—you see you

RECORD RISE
IS PREDICTED
FORJIVER
Warnings Are Issued
Growers But No
Danger Seen
Fear that within the next 24 hours
the Rio Grande river would reach
| the highest mark in its history was ,
expressed Thursday by Government 1
forecaster W. J. Sehnurbusch. oi j
Brownsville, who reported that a
rise of better than 5 feet had been
reported at Rio Grande City since'
Wednesday morning.
The record height of 18.6, set in
June of 1925. will probably be ex
ceeded by the present flood, he said.
The high water 10 days ago was the
highest recorded by government of
ficials since 1927. it was disclosed.
A rise of 6 4 feet was shown at
i San Benito during the past 24
hours. Mr. Sehnurbusch stated. The
markings there show 21.8 feet to
day. or within a few inches of the
flood stage.
Rising Here
At Brownsville the river has
reached a height of 15.5 feet with
a flood stage of 18 feet. The latter
mark will be reached within the
next 12 to 24 hours, it was predict
ed.
“At Rio Grande City water in
sight this morning <18 feet) will
cause dangerous stages in the Val
ley from about M>% cedes down to
the mouth of the river during the
next 12 to 24 hours,'’ the official
report reads. "The dangerous stages
will be reached unless the river rises
several feet higher at Rio Grande
City today, which will rause the
water to leave the main stream by
i the upper flood way 5 near Mission.”
“It is hard to predict the action
or the Rio Grande,” Mr. Schnur
busch said. “Flood rises differently
every time it comes .This time,
however. I believe it is safe to pre- [
diet that there will be plenty of
breaks, most of them on the other
side of the river.”
Warnings Issued
Mr. Schnurbusch explained that
the Lower Valley will be safe if the
river breaks out above and flows
j into the flood controls. In this man- j
l ner. the current would slow down
and run slowly in the lower section
of the Valley.
"If it does not break out above,
we are in for a record flood, water
down here exceeding the record
high mark of 18.6 feet for 1925 by
several inches," he said. He added. I
however, that this flood would be
| no more dangerous, because the
levees had been raised since 1925
and could handle a higher flow oi
water.
Warnings have been issued by
the government bureau, and tele
phone calls, telegrams and letters
have been issued to farmers and
others living on the river banks.
Everything possible will be done to
control the present flood.

heavy footed Argentine.
Poreda rolled up a big lead on
points, cut Bianchi’s face into gory
ribbons and won the unanimous
decision of Referee Patsy Haley and
two judges, there were no decisive
knockdowns but Bianchi twice half
stumbled to the floor for brief
counts after stiff shots to the jaw
and on two occasions, each rolled
to the canvas after mixups. Poreda
weighed 196 and Bianchi 212 1-2.
Schmeling was first in the ring,
aecomanied by his seconds in brll
iant hued sweaters and Sharkey
followed a minute later with an
American flag draped around his
shoulders The crowd greeted
Schrneltng with a round of cheers
bat Sharkey's rece tlon was tem
pered with boos as the crowd spied
the flag.
While Sharkey stood calmly In
his corner photographers stormed
the ring, Paulino Uzcudun, Victono
Campolo and Young Stribling
cLmbed into to challenge the win
ntr. Sharkey glowered and jumped
as a flashlight went off too close
to his head.
The judges were announced as
Charles Mattison, and Harold
Barnes. The crowd stirred rest
k-sstly and cheered for action as
two more heavyweights. Johnny
R.sko and Tuffy Griffith climtid
into the arena. It was beginning
to look like a meeting of heavy
weights who had been defeated by
one or another of the title con
tenders.
Crowd Anxious
Schmeling and Sharkey all but
embraced as they met for the first
time in the center of Jhe ring. Their
looks were stern and professional
however, as they gathered with
their seconds to pose for pictures i
in Schmeling's corner. The crowd
by this time was openly yelling for
action and the photographers were
chased from the ring.
The weights were Sharkey 197. 1
Schmeling 188.
By this time Silver Tongued Joe
Humphries announced to the war

to the fighters. Schmeling received
a tremendous ovation as Humphries
in*roduced him and Sharkey spat
contemptuously in his direction
S'. rakev was greeted with a roar of
