Plungers Beat Ft. Stockton Panthers in Cautious Win

Plungers outplayed the Panthers but failed to show full potential. A large crowd attended as Fort Stockton fought hard yet lacked decisive punch.

Alvin K. Matthews of the Santa Cruz Sentinel argues that a newspaper pro fessor is a high aspiration and all in journalism should tell the truth in writing. He says a good newspaper acts as a standing advertisement for its community and urges citizens to subscribe at low cost for great value. He cites Calvin Coolidge on advertising and its role in modern industry, wages, and the home market, insisting advertising drives production and benefits manufacturers, merchants, and consumers by informing buyers.
