When the democrats gaihed! control of the house in the elec-| tions of 1930, the New Jersey, representative fell heir “to the chairmanship of the committee on the District of Columbia. Since the District committee! handles all affairs relating to the voteless citizens of the capital, the chairman is the nearest to a may- or that the city has. “Her Honor, the Mayor,” how- ever, hasn’t been in Washington much since the special session of congress adjourned. It’s another who is being hailed as “His Honor” and getting the credit for doing things. that a chief magis-! trate usually does for his con-| stituents, ‘ “His Honor’—certainly during ‘the sumiher months—has been Senator William H. King of Utah.| | Heads Senate Committee King holds the same position in the senate that Mrs. Norton does in the house.. He is chairman of senate’s 4 committee. Many thought that the — gray- i veteran Utah senator would take-only. a casual. interest in his new job. Already he was! a busy man. He yanks second on the powerful ‘finance committee of the senate and holds the same er proudly for almost three years} It won’t be very long now be- i subject. an Baseball fans were disappointed last Sunday when they expected to: see Tucker do mound duty for the’ visitors in one of the two games played. Hudson’s wonderful con- dition probably beat him to it. Jimmie Ward, Zacharias pitcher, certainly has tough luck when he pitches. Recently in the first game of a new organizéd league he was defeated by the Lopez’ Funeral Home, 7 to 0, despite the fact that the eight hits he allowed were so well scattered that none of the scores were made through hits. this Eleven of the fourteen errors made by the Zacharias that night came in the second and fifth in- nings when the Embalmers scored twice in each of the innings. Although Clarence. Gates pitch- ed a four-hit game, the contest should never have been so one- sided since both pitchers were hufl- jing nice ball. Some of our ball players ate peculiar characters. In a dia- ‘mondbafl game the other night, Cheta Baker raised cain because the was not chalked up with an er jror on an infield roller that he could never have gotten in time to throw out the runner: In a recent baseball game it was to the con- because an error © against him when he ; grounder get through a}is What's the matter, Phifip?...«>_ Some of the fans seems to watit |to ¢lass William Cates with Chete but we don’t agree there.

These stagés are: The egg, the larvel or maggot, the pup: and the adult. The eggs are plac- ed inside of mature and ripening frnits by the female flies. This is done by means of a néedle-like structure, called the ovipositor, in- serted through the skin of the fruit and into the pulp where t peges-are placed. The eggs hatch ing fruit tissue, and when mature leave the fruit to enter the sur- face layer of the soil, The mature larvae, after entering the soil, form the pupal or resting stage.
