J. W. Erwin, Official Lecturer Ar
rives on Special Trip to Roosevelt
Dam to Secure Publicity Material

That extensive preparations are be-
ing made by the Southern Pacific to
feature the Roosevelt road trip next
year was demonstrated yesterday by
the arrival of j. w. Erwin, official
lecturer for the company, on spe-
cial trip to the dam for the purpose
of securing material for use in his
publicity work next year. With him
is Photographer Hillyard, with 1000
feet of film and large number of
plates which will be used in secur-
ing views along the new optional
route
Mr.. Erwin. who is one of Arizona S
best friends when it comes to pub
licity, will feature the Roosevelt side
trip and other natural wonders OF
the state in his lectures next win
ter in much the same way that the
Grand Canyon trip has been pro-
NOTED by the Santa Fe. and for this
purpose a large number of slides
and films will be prepared.
The trip of Messrs Erwin and Hill
yard is the result of the recently-
awakened interest taken by the rail
road officials in the possibilities Of
the new side trip, and in its rela
ton to the heavy tourist travel to
the coast next year. The matter has
been taken up by L. ]. Spence OF
New York, general traffic manager

rection that the present trip of pre-
paration is being made

The special dispensation in the
membership campaign is expected to
be brought to close ~ this even
ings meeting. The celebration of the
Fourth and the knowledge that in a
few days there will be an advance
in the cost of initiation, has resulted
in phenomenal number of applica-
tons for membership. 1t is expected
that the secretary will be enabled
tonight to report more than 900
members in good standing, number
considerably in excess of that of any
