The Colonist varsity five didn’t come out as well—losing their fourth game and dropping to fourth place in the current Sunset league race. Meade Scores 22 Curtis Meade set a torrid 22 point pace to cop scoring honors and provide more than a margin of victory for the hometown team. The Bees were never headed, holding a 25-15 lead at half-time and then going basket-happy in the third stanza—jumping to a 38-19 lead. Varsity Loses Don Ward finally found his shooting eye and dumped in 16 points for the winning Sallor varsity five, followed by teammate Bob Yardley with 14 and co-forward Bill Jackson with 11 in a game in which the Colonists couldn’t find the mark.

Weibalk Named Captain of Sal Flores Marvin Webb Awarded Hot Rod Trophy Marvin Webb of 1882 South Placentia avenue, body shop owner, was awarded one of three trophies for his bright-purple high-speed roadster, by the Southern California Timing Association at its annual 10-day show which ended Sunday at Exposition Armory, Los Angeles. More than 60 "hot rod" owners competed with their built-up cars which had a valuation of $1800 to $5000. Judges were well known car designers and automotive stress experts. Webb took the trophy for outstanding workmanship and construction with his streamlined car which he built up from a '29 Model A roadster. The exhaust pipe and chrome headers he created from an ornate iron bedstead. Approximately 10 yards of bailing wire went into welding work on the fast-traveling buggy, which boasts an exceptionally low center of gravity. Webb stated the judges said his fully-equipped car was safer on the road than the average factory-built automobile. Alpha Beta Beats Leavitt Ford's basketteers cleared one of the highest hurdles in the current City Basketball League race with ease as they swamped the second place Aggies team 50-34 last night, Wednesday, February 2. The outcome was never in doubt with the Studebaker quintet holding a 26-10 half-time edge and coasting to their eighth win. Dick Thornton, center for the league leaders scored 18 points to walk off with high point honors with Roy Merk playing his usual stand-out game for the losers, scoring 10. Leavitt's have five games separating them from the league crown, having to play Ritz, Knights of Columbus, Rotary, Williams and Alpha Beta in that order. Alpha Beta Wins Alpha Beta notched their fourth win and maintained their grip on fourth place with a win over the Garden Grove Merchants 26-22 in a slow-moving contest. The Grocers had only a five man squad but stayed ahead of the Merchants all the way although only having a 12-11 lead at half-time.

Senator J. Howard Williams of Porterville, sponsored a bill which would continue the plenary powers of the fish and game commission for another two years. These powers were granted as a wartime measure and have been extended at each session. During the 1947 session continuance of this power extension was sharply criticised but was finally approved. Many legislators, however, declared at that time they would not again vote to grant such power to the commission. Weibalk Named Captain of Water Poloists Coach Kingsbury's highly spirited Colonist varsity and Bee water polo squads were awarded their letters at a recent assembly. The poloists were not too spectacular during the season, but put up some impressive battles to win three out of six scheduled contests. As in the past, the locals were hampered considerably by the fact that they begin their season after football while other schools start at the opening of school. In a recent election Paul Weibalk was named captain for the varsity squad, while Ray Sharp took the Bee honors. Also elected were Dudley Frank as the varsity squads most valuable player and Jack Johannes was selected as top man for the Bee's. Those receiving letters were, Varsity—Weibalk, Frank, North, Hoffman, Walsworth, Dymmel, Waters, Henning, Claussen, Pugh, Himmerick, and Gautschy. Bee lettermen are: Sharp, Johannes, Alvarado, Hersh, Weaver, Weaver, Dunn, Cleveland, Davis, Sonny Ard, Saucedo, and Joe Hoffman. The winner of the 1946 South Carolina five-acre cotton contest had an average yield of 1655 pounds per acre. His staple was one and one-eighth inches.

Another measure has been introduced which would take the fish and game agency out of the department of natural resources entirely. At present it is simply, as one member put it, "housed" within that department as a matter of convenience. The director has no regulatory power over the agency. Another legislative proposal advanced by assemblyman Vincent Thomas of San Pedro would create a separate fish and game commission to regulate commercial fishermen. Thomas pointed out that all members of the present fish and game commission are representatives of the sportsmen. "Let them have their commission," Thomas said, "but the commercial fishermen are entitled to have people serving in regulatory positions who know something about the industry." To add fuel to the controversy, senator H. R. Judah of Santa Cruz is proposing the repeal of a 1947 law which made the possession of be sponsored a bill which continue the plenary powers and game commission over two years. powers were granted as measure and have been at each session.
