 GOVERNMENTS
Meeting of City Attorneys to Be Held in Tucson to Look Into Various
 Methods
BUSINESS METHODS NOW

Some time after the new year, at Tucson. there will be held a meet ing of the city attorneys of all cities in Arizona at which the much talked of commission form of government will be discussed and it is likely that an act enabling cities of Ari- Zona to try the plan as may be for mulated and presented to the legis- lature
 City Attorney Ed. J. Flanigan of Bisbee is interested in the study of the commission plan and will attend the meeting. He has not been in formed as to the date of the meeting, which will be held before the first legislature meets.
 For cities the size of Bisbee. Tue. son, Phoenix, Douglas, Prescott and Globe. Mayor Newman. a well known exponent Of the commission form idea, is Of the opinion that the city manager idea, which is the commits sion form of government revised for use by smaller cities, would meet municipal conditions in Arizona.
 Try One Man Government
 The "city manager" idea probably gets nearer to the proposition that a municipality is a business corpora tion than the original commission plan under which a city is governed by board of three or five.
 Under the city manager plan of commission government the head or manager is alone responsible, not alone for his own acts but for those Of his employees, as the street super intendent. the fire chief, police chief. etc, whom he employs" said Mayor Newman yesterday.
 The responsibility not only makes the manager active in serving the in terests of the city but it inspires in him feeling of personal pride in his work, just as a business manager of mercantile concern takes pride iI the success of his business. The plan is designed to eliminate politics from municipal government and with the management of a city on his hands, the city manager has little time TO devote to anything else. He is paid to look after the interests os the taxpayers and to this end it is 10 his own personal inerest to employ only the best of men under his su- peryision."
 Staunton Tells Experience.
 The mayor cited the experience of Staunton, Va, city of 12,000 popula- ton This city was typical of the average misgoyeTned American com munity. It has tried the Lockport plan with results that are attractive as outlined. It sent to Richmond for Charles E. Ashburner, a civil engi- neer and railroad man, whom it was lucky to get for s2,500 a year. Things are different now in Staunton. Ash burner has been handling the taxpay- CTS money as he would his own.
 He has complete charge of the towns business. He has laid 4S.- GOO feet of pavement in three years as against about 5000 under the old council regime. He has over come the water shortage, installed sewerage system, closed a malodrous dump" in the center of Staunton, re- formed the practice of collecting gar bage, put up street signs, paved school and. incidently made city employees earn their salaries by refus- ing to pay them for idle time.

 Cupid has been hitting about TOO in Boston of late. Since the close of last season Bill Sweeny, Duffy Lewis. Charley Hall and Joe Wood have all signed managers for life.
 Now they say that if Hank O'Day doesn't make good as manager of the Cincinnati reds he can go back to umpiring. Fine encouragement for a man who hasn't even started in on the job yet.

vored playing a western eleven next fall:
 No Chance for West
 T see no chance for a game. Our schedule is now very heavy, and while there may be couple of chang es, 1t is safe to predict that no west ern game will be attempted. The jump would be a long one to the west for a Yale team to take. and the faculty is unwilling to allow many cuts from recitations to athletics"
 Another reason why Yale will not attempt a game with a western team is that the new stadium will not be ready here until 1913. There is a strong sentiment at Yarg -or invit- ing a western eleven. preferably Lon- ny Stagg's or Harry Williams teams. here to help i'll the Rew stadium as soon as it is completed.
 Captain Spalding has been in track athletics and football in both the Fill School. where he explained the football eleven, and in the Chicago Latin school, the two institutions where he prepared for Yale. His father is dead. He is a relative of Bishop Spalding, who settled the coal strike.

ELS ARE PLANNING
 FOR 1872 FOOTBALL
SpaIding Says There's No Place for Western Team
 on the Schedule

NEW HAVEN. Conn, Dec. 30.- Jesse Spalding, captain Of the Yale eleven for next season, said today that he would not announce his plans until January. He has offered coach ships to several of the players of least seasons team, and has given them three weeks to make up their minds.
 It is taken for granted that Cap tain Arthur Howe will be head coach and it is expected that Jim Sculiy will be coach of the tackles, and Francis coach of the guards. The sys- tenn of having five resident coaches will probably be followed, one of them devoting his entire time to the fresh man eleven. This was an innova- ton made by Captain Arthur Howe the last season.
 Captain Spalding said today that some winter work would be ordered The quart erbacks will be called out in the gymnasium soon after college reopens. about January 15. for some technical detailed instruction.
 Recruit Quarter
 As all three of the quarterbacks of the eleven the last season-Cap- tain Howe. Merritt and Strout-wiil be graduated in June, it Is time to develop at isast two strong novices. Castles and Loftus from the present freshman class are the most promis- ing. Kenneth McCiintock, the fresh man quarter of last season, will pro bsbly be a candidate next fall.
 Spalding is the first western cap
 ofn the regime of Tom Shevlin, who was sorry because 1t did not seem practi- able to add a western game to the Yale schedule Captain Spalding said today, when asked whether he Ia
