UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA WILL
 EXTEND SCOPE OF EDUCATION
M. sAUNDERsoN, OF ALBION COLLEGE, IS ELECTED DIRECTOR APPROPRIATION ASKED CURE INSTRUCTORS LECTURES

The Tepe Normal School and the University of Arizona are now work l ing on a course of study in agricul- ture to be given in the normal school
 and to be articulated with the courses
 in farming in the University. In the
 study of this problem the agricul- tural course in the high schools will be taken up and an attempt to frame
 course that will suit the needs of these schools. The Mesa and the
 Phoenix high schools are already Of fering an agricultural course for next year.
 The importance to farming commun' ities of instruction in agriculture in
 the local high schools has been mani fested clearly in Iowa. The issue of Country Gentleman for May 18th, says:
 -Four years ago the superintendent of schools in Wright County inquired
 of the boys and girls above the fourth grade in 34 rural schools what they intended to do when they were grown
 up. Of the 164 boys, 157 replied that they would have nothing to do with farming; and 163 of the 174 girls
 were equally emphatic. Three years later, during which time instruction in elementary agriculture and home economics had been given and correl- ated effectively with other school
 work, and the question was repeated in the same schools. This time out of l174 boys, 162 answered that they in tended to become farmers; and 161 of
 the IFS girls announced that they plan
 ned to become homekeepers, farmers,
 and so On.'
 MT. J. M. Saunderson has been ap-
 pointed director of athletics at the University of Arizona for next year. MT. Saunderson is a graduate of Al
 bion College, a successful teacher, ev-
 cry inch a man, and an athletic coach
 with long succession of victories to
 his credit. He will have charge of
 all outdoor athletics at the University.
 This is the first time in the history
 of the University that an appointment of this kind has been made and it is hoped that it will have good re-
 suits not only at the University but in all school athletics in the state. For some months the University has been considering elementary courses in mining to be given in high schools
 The mining towns have the same claim to state support for vocational edu cation in their high schools as the
 agricultural communities. This was

PLAYED HIS PART
 IN TRAP, JUROR SAYS
COUNSEL FOR DARROW SUB- JEcTs LOCKWOOD TO SEVERE CROSS-EXAMINAT

Los Angeles, Cal, May 2S.-Detect- i've R. J. Foster was cited for contempt for giving an interview to a paper yes terday, saying that he could convict Darrow with evidence secured by a telephonic device. The case was transferred to the court of Judge Will lis, after which the Darrow trial was resumed with Lockwood, the juror, on the stand.
 In his direct examination he said he played a part in trapping Frank lin to prevent a great crime" The defense subjected Lockwood to a severe cross examination in an eff fort to show a conspiracy existed be- tween him and Franklin to trap Oar row. Lockwood admitted he had de- tectives at his house in expectation Of Darrow coming, but that Franklin said later by the Big One" he meant IC. E. White. The District Attorney sought to have Rogers cited for con- tempt for referring to the bribery af- fair as a performance Rogers jump ed to his feet shouting, ''The whole affair is fake, a frame-up and I vii prove it before I get through

recognized in the bill recently passed in the legislature. The chief difficult ty in initiating mining courses is that there are no suitable text books and no experience in other states to guide us; Arizona may have to work this out not for herself but for other states as we'll. At first mining stud ies in the high schools can consist of little more than an elemntary course in ore deposits, to follow a strong course in physical geography or phys iography, and to have most value for our schools this course must discuss Arizona conditions. We have but four high schools in mining towns and so the demand for such a text would have but limited sale and school book publishers would have little encour- agement to issue such a book. But this problem is not insoluble and soon, without doubt, the high schools of the mining towns will have the proper means for this study.
 One of the requests of the Univer- sity in it's appropriation bill before the legislature was for limited sun for extension courses" Extension courses are courses of lectures to bt given by the University instructors out in the state wherever they are wanted and can be supplied within the limits of the appropriation. These lectures would be in the fields of his tory, literature, economies, agriculture and perhaps domestic economy, and other subjects. No expense would come on the community asking for the lectures. Often they would be given in the local school and would reinforce the instruction of that school. The plan is to bring the Uni versity into closer touch with the peO- pie, to give freely whatever it has for public benefit, and for itself to gain by securing a larger measure of public interest In economies, for ex- ample, it would interest the students of a high school like that in Phoenix, to learn of business conditions and opportunities in Arizona; in city like Bisbee to hear of the economies of the mining market; and the students and people of any community to learn the place of Arizona in the history of the country. The faculty of the Uni versity has for years been a strong one, capable of giving much service to the public, but the contemplated appropriation would give it the first opportunity to go out among the peo- pie.

BARLEY THREsHED BY MOTOR
Ohio Farmer Breaks Record for Time When He Adopts Electrical Meth
 cd for Quick Work.

William Stroop, who has a farm in the Miami valley, near Dayton. O., had a crop of barley that he wanted threshed last fall, so he sent for the owner of the local threshing outfit to do the work He came with his 33- inch separator and his big steam trac- ton engine and proceeded to set up for business.
 MT. Stroop had been using a 15- horsepower electric motor about his farm buildings for cutting and grinding feed, saving wood, etc. shift Ing it to various positions, as desired. and making connections with little trouble He suggested to the owner or the thresher that the motor be used in place of his engine, to which the latter agreed, though his engineer doubted the ability of the small motor to run the separator at full capacity
 The machine was set, however, and the belt adjusted, and when the pow. CT was turned on its strength was speedily demonstrated by the rapidity with which the sheaves disappeared and the grain poured out. Hour after hour the work proceeded without stopping, and when the job was fin ished 1t was found that in less than l2 hours more than 1,700 bushels of grain had been threshed, an average of 150 bushels an hour.

ATTORNEY SAYS STATE
 LAW D|SREGARDED
STATE LAW IS EFFECTIVE IN TO. DAYS ELECTION BUT OFFICERS FAIL TO ENFORCE IT.

The town election started off quiet ly this morning and promised little excitement at the outset
 The state law, making it obligatory that a voter must understand the English language, and read and write, was openly violated at polling booth No. l, and furnished the only excitement.
 This is the first election in Yuma with two polling booths. One has heretofore sufficed, and new develop ments arose. For instance: Manuel Lerona appeared at Booth No. 2, at the old Courthouse, and it being quickly shown that he could neither read nor write, the vote was not al lowed. His friends hustled him off to booth No. 1, where he met with better success, though it was thorough ly demonstrated that he could neither read nor write, and splendid evidence of this was shown when the election officer allowed him to vote, not in his own name, but in the name of his brother, Luciano Lerona
 Later Luciana, who can read anu write, came in the polling booth and voted for himself and the vote was allowed and stands on the records.
 I hraof appeared at booth No. ?, and because he could not legally vote was like wise rejected, and just as promptly, rushed over to No. 1, on Main street. where he voted. Protest was heard but the vote was put through and it stands.
 Among others who could not speak English, or read and write it, as requir- ed by the state law, were Jose Castro, Candelano Gonzales, Grovelliano Le- roma, Jose Lopez, and Rumaldo Nor enc.
 It is said to be a we'll known fact that Rumaldo Moreno, though a cit izen of Yuma some years ago, regis tered in 1909, has since then resided at Mexicali, Mexico, where his resi- dence is now.
 The list of those persons voting at booth No. 1, who were clearly prohib- ited by state law was materially added to as the day wore on, and The Ex- aminer will furnish more names to- morrow.
 The officers of Precinct No. were: Clerks, Joe Molina, w. J. Skaggs; in spector, A. D. Beasley; Judges, J. P. Yemen and H. A. Williams; marshal, Julio Martinez.
 The officers of Booth No. 2, were: Clerks, Isaac Polhamus and w. A. Neinstedt; Inspector, Fred R. Ingle; Judges, c. V. Meeden and O. F. Townsend.
 City Attorney T. D. Molloy has ex- pressed the opinion that the state law which says that voter must read and write the English language was effect i've at this election.
 AS The Examiner goes to press 300 votes have been boiled at booth No 1, and PAP at booth No. 2, which is 43 votes more than were boiled at the last city election, two years ago.
