5 2 Nevada City-Grass Valley Nugget, January 6, 1949 ‘Gow Diccer’s Frain Charles Scott Haley — Next day, Tuesday, we reached Azangaro, where "I was able to get decent food and lodging; and found sthe place had gone sober at last. Early next morning “we started out, and shortly before noon we had ar“vived at Pucara, in time for the Wednesday train. . ‘paid my guide his bonus, gave him the remaining Bottle of wine, and set him on his road to Azangaro, ahis time astride of the mule himself. Whether he <arrived sober or drunk at Sandia, . was never to Yearn, for I had immediately, other thoughts to occupy ‘my mind. I had just three soles’ left—about a ‘dollar and a half—and the fare to Juliaca was just two “‘soles” and a half. "The train was due in half an hour, so after get‘ting my stuff ready on the platform of the station, J went to the window to buy a ticket to Juliaca. Inci«denally, before leaving Sandia, I had written LomelFimi in Cuzco, to have a sum of money mailed to me vat Juliaca in care of Ratti, the principal storekeeper. 1 was taken aback very much, however, when “on presenting my last three ‘“‘soles” at the ticket “window, the station master pushed one of them back ‘at me, with the remark tha it was counterfeit, and -worthless. As the fare to Juliaca was two soles and one “half, that left me shy of the amount needed. The “train was whistling from up the line, so I had to do ‘some quick thinking. A little cantina, or grog shop lay down the line -sabout a hundred yards, and . went down and did a ‘qmick stroke of business with the native who ran it. ¥ sold him the bad sole for a good half sole. He was -ahead on the transaction because he knew he could it off on some native for full value, and I was -ahead because . had enough to get me to Juiaca, inStead of having to wait half a week for the next train at best; and possibly not being able to get out at all, because . would not last long on just three soles. That afternoon, . pulled into Juliaca. I was mot a prepossessing object. One torn shirt remained sof my outfit, a pair of dirty overalls, and nearly a “month’s growth of beard, as I had not been able to ~shave since leaving Cuzco, my personal supplies having ‘Jheen lost on the trip. Looking like any hobo, I walked aver to Ratti’s store, and asked to see the proprietor. _4A very supercilious native sway, but I pushed past him and encountered Ratti in the cubbyhole at the back of his store where he held In perfectly good Spanish . explained to him my wredicament, and asked if he had a letter for me from the Casa Lomellini, in Cuzco. He replied very shortly @hat there was none. My letter had evidently been Yost. in transit, which was not unusual for Peruvian ‘gmail at that time. He then turned back to his desk as if to dismiss me. Again . was slightly irritated, and said, “Wait a wnoment. I’m not through with you yet.” He swung round in surprise. “] am a client of the Casa Grace. “What I want to know is, if you receive telegraphic orders from them to deliver fifty pounds to me, whether yyou will do it.” “Certainly,” he replied. “We are always pleased to accomodate the Casa Grace. But as far as any hobo «claiming that he is a client of theirs, we have heard athat before.” “Al right,” I said. ““You will have your orders in tthe morning.” Immediately . went over to the telegraph office wand wrote out two messages—one to Grace and Co. iamn‘Arequipa, and the other to Lomellini, in Cuzco. . eshoved them in to the wicket, marked ‘‘collect’’ and ypromptly had them shoved back at me. ‘The money, please,” said the clerk. ‘But I have no money.” %. “That's too bad—because then you can send no messages,”’ and he shoved my blanks back at me. I walked back to the only hotel, again slightly Grritated. Walking into the bar, I, unslung my pack from my neck, threw it ‘over the bar, and asked the “proprietor for the loan of a Peruvian pound He knew its value was many times that, and handed over the money immediately. With the equivalent of five dollars gn my pocket, I again went to the telegraph office .zind sent my messages, walked back to the hotel, ¢ (Please turn to Page 6) clerk attempted to bar my gs 7 a ye T sui = or Business—— eo ‘ x .

This malady, contrary to the general belief, is mot confined to aging patients, but it is very common amoung the youthful. In the New England Journal of Medicine of-November, 1945, there is an article in which Captain Nicholson and Faulk states that many young.men at the air force installation reported to the dispensary on account of distressing night cramps. The symptoms were the same as those described by the elderly people, and relief was obtained in the same way,’ by the administration of quinine. It was found that three grains of quinine given at bedtime produced the most spectacular and dramatie relief. Often, in evry severe cases, the physicians prescribed larger doses of quinine, before getting results. Quinine is not cumulative, for it is readily eliminated from the system. “fhe ‘laiety have taken it for generations.

(See page 5) COMMENT ON SPORTS By ED SIMS WASHINGTON—A_ good Iesson for the nation’s youth can be learned here in Washington. The lesson is for the boys and girls, and for those who are \ sports minded and those who aren’t. It’s about a basketball: team in the professional basketball league— the Washington Caps. The Caps have long been one of the best basketball teams in the country. They arrived with greatness after the Boston Celtics, and after some of the others, but they have definitely arrived in the last few years. But about the Washington Caps’ greatress there lies a!great story. The Caps are the best in the business today, to begin with. They won fifteen straight over New York, Boston and everyone in the western. cities. They’re walking off with pro honors this year. But they have no league nigh scorer, or anything like that. The league’s high scorer is usuaaily not a Cap. On paper a.lot of other good basketball teams should lick the Caps. But they don’t, even if the Caps have to come from behind in the last minute or two of the game. And when the Caps meet a low scoring quintet, they win by five or ten points. Sometimes they run up a larger margin, but winning margins aren’t the main goals of the Caps. When they play a high scoring team, they win by five or ten points also. In other words if it’s defense the other team specializes in, the Caps play defensive. If it’s the high scoring offensive game that the other teams play, the Caps cutseore them. It’s true that the Caps’ sometimes’ reverse. their style to gaim the temporary advantage, but usually they just outplay their -opponents game their opponents choose to play. The great story in this team isn’t that they win, or that they are champions of the league. The great story is that the Caps are a team. In. some games four or five men get fifteen ponts, or apapproximately fifteen. The Caps are an ideal team. While Philadelphia or Boston, or some of the others such as St. Louis or Chicago may have the highest scoring played in the league, the Caps outscore him when they play his team, And while some pro basketball rosters list more name players than the Caps have the Caps outplay the names when they meet them.
