this connection the shortage of water
in the San Juan basin is because it
has not been properly conserved. The
water problem of this section where

Baseball is a game OF wonderful pos

Memorial officers hold that they have
nothing to lose, and everything to gain

team are exceedingly bright despite the
fact that Anderton and Groover, men,

college. Hayne, Peoples and Glass have
been members of previous White and
Blue teams, and with them as a
nucleus, fast combination should be
