the obstacle which looms up as the
most serious barrier 10 a settlement IN
the near future.
1t was made clear 10 Mr.. Elliott that
the government would insist upon

TEMPE, Dec. ia baseball game
and card of sports including foot rae
es, pony races, relay races and other
events similar to those on the program
Thanksgiving day. Those are what the
Tempe sport enthusiasts are now work
ing on for Christmas afternoon. The
whole of the proceeds will go to the
benefit of the Tempe band which will
be out in gala attire to fill in the idle
moments with its classical and rag
time pieces.
The complete program, which has
been slowly but surely Undertaking.
for the past three or four weeks, is in
the hands of trio of sport promoters,
G. R. Finch, manage of the band; S. j..
Jennings, coach of high school athlet
les; and Banker Ephram Carlson,
playing manager for the former Tempe
Bears who are to reorganize for per-
iod of couple or three hours on
Christmas afternoon.
Naturally the ball game is the feature
event. The Tempests of the high school
and the rejuvenated Tempe Bears are
booked as the opposing teams. The
high school has major portion of its
last years material on hand and is
feeling pretty confident. On Honest
John Mutt, and Felix Oviedo, that same
old battery that has brought many a
victory Tempe ward in the past, the
town team might confidently bank for
winning. ThereTl be seven other
men in the field though, and probably
as many more on the bench so alto
gether the veterans are going to fur
nish a pretty good team for the fray.
Several cowboy relays are being
planned for which the aggregate prizes
will amount to fifty or hundred dol
lars; a pony and burro race or two; a
free for all foot race and some of the
more amusing sack and potato races
for the youngsters are also booked for
the Christmas program.
