Basketball and Baseball

A basket ball team from Co. F,
N. G. A., with all their war
clothes on, met the basketballers
of the Academy Wednesday in
fight which was disastrous to the
the soldiers, they losing the game
by seven points. The fellow who
was keeping tab on the battle
was captured early in the fight
consequently the official score
cannot be given. With practice
and proper coaching the militia
boys can produce strong bask-
ct ball team.
Thursday afternoon the Acad-
emyites didn't do so wellin base
ball against a picked up town
team. The town fellows played
rings around them with a pig O,
winning the game 13 to 8.

Ostrich Industry Hurt
By Dame Fashion

Because ostrich feathers have
gone out of style, the bird which
produces them has become a
drug on the market and a great
American industry has been
ruined temporarily at least.
The sections hit are Phoenix
and Yuma where large ostrich
farms have been maintained.
An ostrich eats as much alfalfa
as a horse and the owners of
these birds not being able to find
market their product are finding
it difficult to raise the money to
feed them. 1t was said that for
d time they contemplated turning
Them loose in the Salt River Val
Icy. A woman was killed in a
runaway caused by the horse
becoming frightened by an os-
trich and the owners of the bird
decided that they might be fore
ed TO face serious damage suits
if they turned the birds out.
A broker in New York offered
only 81, 700 for a shipment o f
Ostrich feathers valued at So,
600, 900 and the broker only want
ed to pay one half down and the
balance when the birds were
sold. Full grown ostriches
are reported to be selling
at So each. There was a time
when a fine bird brought as high
as $400.

Says Militia Class
Is Showing Up Well

Lieut.. Shamhart reports that
his first class formed of officers
and non-commissioned officers OF
Co. F is taking up the prescribed
work in an entirely satisfactory
manner. All work done so far
tends to show that time in Co.
F has not been wasted.
The drill in itself covers all
extended order drill through
School of the Soldier, School of
SQUAD and School of the Com
pany. There are a number of
changes in these since the last
edition of Infantry Drill Regu-
lations in 1911 and those parts
changed will be covered in par
ticular.
The lectures go a little more
deeply into the work, showing
the manner of establishing camps
and sanitation, protection and
regulation of the same. Conduct
of marches and advance guards,
reconnaissance and patrol work.
deployment for action, methods
of attack and defense. intrench-
ing and entrenchments and de-
fense of houses and localities,
are all subjects to be covered in
the lectures. This is of particu-
lar Importance for the reason
that little of this can be taken
up in any other manner.

Substitute Clubs
for the Saloons

Among tn e measures sug-
gested to provide a substitute
for the saloon is a plan to have
cities and counties construct and
maintain club houses for men,
says a Phoenix dispatch. A bill
empowering this procedure on
the part of municipal and county
governments is now in course of
preparation by DR.. w. w.
Schenk of Flagstaff and will be
presented in the next legisla-
ture.
The bill will authorize the
maintenance of social centers
equipped with entertainment
features for men, such as bowl
ing alleys, pool rooms and other
amusement devices. 1t is said
that the measure has the ap-
proval of Governor Hunt and
that it will be recommended in
his message to the legislature.

FRISCO EXHIBITION
WILL Be, REGARDLESS

The president of Panama-Pa-
cific International Exposition,
which is to be held in San Fran
cisco, has written the Governor
of Arizona as follows:
Notwithstanding h e fact
that the Panama-Pacific Inter-
national Exposition is 95 per cent
completed, that our exhibit space
is over-applied for, that partici-
patton arrangements by the
states o f the nation are the
largest ever known in exposition
history, that Notwithstanding
the European war we shall. still
have with us as active partici-
pants as many foreign nations
as have ever been represented at
at any exposition and notwith-
standing the fact that all trans
portation experts agree that the
war will actually increase atten-
dance in 1915, rumors are rife in
your state that the Exposition,
because of the war, will be post
poned.
These rumors are utterly
without foundation. Our loss in
exhibits by nations at war will
be negligible in our aggregate.
The standing of the Exposition
as factor in the economic sit
uation resulting from the war
and as a factor in securing new
markets by American producers
is being realized by the largest
and most alert manufacturers in
this country and from the COM
mercial side the Exposition will
be more important than ever.
The honor and prestige of every
state and of every city in this
country and the pride of every
American citizen are involved in
the success of this great national
celebration of the completion of
the Panama Canal.
''The above consideration JUS
tify me in asking you to lend
your vigorous assistance in our
effort to silence these rumors by
publishing the facts. The Expo
sition will be open on schedule
time, Feb. 20, 1915. It will be
100 per cent completed when
opened. 1t is sure Of being the
greatest and most important in
history and promises today re-
gardless of the war to have COM
mercial influence beyond all pre-
cedent. :"
