The Harvard club of Arizona held it's annual banquet and business session
 at the Hotel Adams last night. The
 business was quickly transacted and

 making of short speeches and the reIa-
 tion of "reminiscences.
 The business included the reelection
 Of Judge kent 10 the office of president
 and Guy L. Jones of Salome to the Of-
 flee of secretary. MT. Jones did not ar
 rive until late in the evening. when the
 banquet was well along. owing to a de-
 layed train. but he enjoyed as much
 as anybody all that transpired after he
 did arrive. He may have enjoyed 1t a
 little more for he had to suffer more
 mental anguish than any of the others
 in getting there.
 The members of the club now num- >ber twenty. twelve of whom were pres ent last night and whose names are as follows: Edward Kent. c. l.. Jones of Salome, Roy $. Goodrich.

There were three guests of the evening. Governor J. H. Kibbey. Antonio Apache and B. A. Fowler. The presence of MT. Fowler emphasized the only tragic event of the evening. He is an honorary mem Der of the club and was urged partic-
 n ha
 Is graduate of Yale and yesterday was the day of the big football game between the two universities. It was A part of the plan to have MT. Fowler present as a representative of the blue so that when the returns from the football game in the entire club would have somebody present to laugh at and gloat over. But the telegram read Yale 6, Harvard 0. It was up to MT. Fowler to do all the gIoating and for once in his life he wished that he might have been twins SO he could get his moneys worth.
 Judge Kent presided and performed the duties of toast master in his usual pleasing way. There were no set speeches but nearly all present made short talks as they were called upon and the occasion suggested. Governor kibbey made a pleasing little speech as also did Mir. Fowler and the other guest, Antonio Apache around whom there was something of novel interest NIT. Apache. as his name indicates. Is a full blooded Apache Indian. who early in life was transported to the haunts of the pale face and given a good college education. He fitted for Harvard and was entered and altered for a season but reverses prevented his finishing the course. He Is now A resident of Los Angeles and is engaged in many lines of investment. being as- sociated with many men of affairs and leaders in the business world. He was the only real native born Arizona Har- ward man present. though he did not attend the university as long as the others. His command of English is perfect. no trace of a native accent being present. He is rather taller than most members of his race and is a fine appearing man.
 During the business session the club ratified the action of the secretary in joining the Arizona club tO the Ma tional Association of Harvard clubs. which will hold it's annual meeting next May fin Detroit. to which the Ari- zona club will send a delegate.
 Another action of the club was in re- spect of the Tempe normal year ago the club offered a silver medallion medal to the prize essay written b- a student Of the Tempe normal on some subject peculiar to Arizona. That medal was awarded this year and the club last night decided to make the custom perpetual: that it offer a medal each year on the same terms
 One action having in view a prac- tical business purpose. was the ap- pointment of a committee consisting of Mir. Fairbanks of Prescott. Mir. Gun min of Crown King and Mir. Webb Of Mesa. The business of this committee will be the introduction of Arizona mine operators to students of the min Ing branches in Harvard. Tt is assum- cd that there are many mining men in Arizona who from time tO time. seek to employ graduates of the technical branches who desire Co take up prac- teal mining. It Is proposed to afford. through the medium of this committee. a means of introduction between the mining men and the technical students.
