HUNTS PLAN ID STOCK
 GAME FORESTS APPROVED
Western Governors Endorse Idea Grow
 ing Out of the Hornaday Lecture

Governor Hunt several days ago di- reCted letters to the governors of seV- enteen of the western states, calling their attention to the movement for stocking national forests in the west with a good supply of all kinds Of game especially the larger animals and birds.
 Up to yesterday afternoon, the gov ernor had received answers from twelve of the chief executives, all of whom were most warm in their en- dorsement of the plan. The project had it's inception here few weeks ago, when Dr. Hornaday gave a lecture on the subject, and suggested that the various states cooperate with congress in the matter of supplying some of the larger forest reserves with some of the species of game birds and animals which now are in great danger of be- coming extinct through the depreciation of the hunters.
 Governor Hunt was especially inter- ested in the subject, and it is his hope that the great Graham Mountain re serve in this state be used as a home for a large number of elk and other va rieties of big game. It is said that the matter will be called to the attention Of the legislature when it meets again. The plan has the endorsement of the United States biological survey, and seems to be an enterprise which could meet with but little opposition from any quarter.

out applications for water service. It is contended that the farmers have to pay the cost of office work anyway and they might just as well pay it at once, when the project is opened.
 Stones Suggestion
 Superintendent Stone of the Grand canal system suggested an improve ment in handling reports Of water ser vice which was enclosed. He opposes to have his zanjeros render individual reports to the central office. as they do now. and to have the office trans init copies to each rancher within forty eight hours after the run. This will enable corrections to be made at once, instead of after a long period. during which a clear understanding of details may be lost.
 The board discussed the Roosevelt road proposition once more. and de- cided that now the project is receiving little benefit from the highway. it can see no reason for maintaining it. A proposal was made to put the burden of up-keep on those using the road most and the legal advisor was asked to draft a plan.

THOROUGHBREOS
 IN FINAL DASH
Tom Franks and Oswald to Be Sent Over 61a Furlong Course Thursday to Set tie Bet Growing Out of Fair Races

There will be a matched horse race over 61@ furlongs at the fair grounds on the mile track Thursday afternoon at ? o'clock It will settle the diff ferences of opinion between Sharkey, owner of Tom Franks and D. Hobart of Stafford owner of Oswald. Both these horses ran in the 6Ie furlong race at the state fair, and the owners were never satisfied with the out come.
 A purse of s2OO has been hung up for the event, which will be the first of several similar brushes between horses wintering here.
 On Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock. the same horsemen will race Rancho Villa the little bay horse owned by SharlIey and Pumpkins owned by Hobart
 The distance will be two furlongs and the purse two hundred bucks No doubt many racing fans will be present to witness the two contests Both pairs are evenly matched, and it is probable that a lot of money will change hands over the outcome.
 These two races will probably end the racing for while, as the Stafford strings will be shipped home next week.

COBB IHSPECTS BISBEE
 TOMBSTONE HIGHWAY

State Engineer Lamar Cobb, who for the past week or so has been making a tour of inspection of the public highways in Cochise county, arrived in Tucson yesterday and got in touch with his office force here on the long distance phone.
 MT. Cobb has made a thorough in- spection of the new Tombstone -Bisbee road which is being built by the prisoners from the penitentiary, and which it is estimated will cost more than fifty thousand dollars About seven miles of the road have been completed, and it is hoped that the entire ten-mile stretch which runs through the Tombstone canyon will be completed by February l. The old road ran along the bottom of the canyon and was in wet weather, of course impossible on account of the torrents of water which swept through the pass. The new road is being blasted from the solid rock along the side of the canyon. A huge steam shovel and an enormous rock crusher are being used on the job and an excellent piece of roadway is being built high and dry above the bottom of the canyon. In some plaCeS the track IS 1lIty rect dDONe the old course. The larger rocks which come from the blasting are used in making entertainments and the smaller stones are used in surfacing the road. The convicts started on the job in May last but the work was stopped for a time on account of the lack of funds. They were able to resume work in August and have been on the job since that time. There are to be two sixty-foot concrete bridges used in spanning couple of the most dangerous parts of the canyon, and altogether the improvement will be one of the most important works which has been carried on in the state for a number of years.
 MT. Cobb has at the present time about ten thousand dollars, which he can spend on the roads in COchise county, and he was making the in- spection for the purpose of determin ing the best manner for spending the funds.
 On Monday and Tuesday he made trips over the roads in Pima county and is expected to return to Phoenix this evening.

CAMPBELL HAULAGE CASE
 ID BE HEARD IN COURT

In all probability the long drawn out action instituted over a year ago by the state corporation commission against the Arizona Eastern and the Southern Pacific railroads. following the companies refusal to transport the equipage of the Campbell Carnival company at rates which were thought to be reasonable by the commission, will be given a hearing in the Mari copa superior court on Friday next that date having been designated as the time for trial
 The case had its origin in February, 1914, when the Southern Pacific and the Arizona Eastern declined to haul the train of the Campbell aggrega- tion except at the regular rate for passengers and excess baggage. It seems that the commission had fixed a tariff of 8 per mile for hauls of this kind, and the commission is seek ing to enforce it's ruling in this case. The roads had transported the Sells Fioto circus over the same route which the Campbell people wished to traverse, and the latter alleges that the transportation companies had made an agreement with the Sells FlotO management that they would not haul any competing companies into the same territory which was covered by the last named show. except upon the payment of the regular passenger and baggage rates. In a few days the Campbell company desired the Southern Pacific to haul their out fit from Tucson to this city. and the road informed them that they would have to pay full fare for the trip. The amusement company placed the mat ter before the corporation commission. and, following an investigation. the Southern Pacific and the Arizona Eastern were ordered to transport the show at the regular rates for such trips. They refused to do this, and the commission held both roads in contempt and assessed a fine of S1.00O against the Southern Pacific and one of $500 against the Arizona Eastern. The roads appealed the case to the superior court. but they have so far never been given a trial.
 Tn Fridays action, the roads will be represented by Attorney J. C. Forest Of this city and the Espee attorney. C. w. Durbrow of San Francisco.

GRepublican A. p. Leased wirel

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Calit. Dec. 6.-Current opinion on the Stan eord University campus today was to the effect that the cardinals would re- linquish soon their hitherto stoutly de- tended principle that freshmen should have the right to compete in varsity athletics. It also was stated frankly that the students would he given an opportunity to vote on this question at an election on next Wednesday.
 The return today from the confer ence of oregon and Washington Uni versailles of P. R. Wilson. president of the student body, gave rise to much discussion, relative to the situation, and it was sensed generally that the elimination of Stanford from the newly formed Pacific Coast conference would be the incentive for the withdrawal by Stanford of the freshmen contention in order that the cardinal again might compete with conference teams.
 Wilson will report tomorrow. as also will Graduate Manager Behrens, at a meeting of the executive committee of the university.

Davis Writes Board of Gov ernors ". U. A. May. Protest Charges Up to Middle of Next Month; The Board $ Business

Members of the Water Users AssO- citation Will be part arbiters of the amount they shall pay for the con struction work, but the method of en- tering their ideas in a possible contest remains to be worked out This is ac- cording to information given to the board of governors at a regular month Iy meeting yesterday. The information came in the form of a letter from Di- rector A. P. Davis in which it was stated that between now and January 2O the ranchers would be given a chance to consult the reclamation ser vice over the report of the board of cost review. which has never been given publicity thus far.
 The letter contained no information as to the method by which the mat ter would be taken up. and the board instructed the secretary Co get in touch at once and find out tEe details. A variety of methods might be used. in cluding that of a hearing in Phoenix, which, it is thought. would be the logi cal way to get every ones ideas.
 The board protested the proposed collection of all water rents by the Denver office on the ground the arr rangement is extremely unwieldy and inccnvenient. IL is proposed that all remittances be made to Denver, where the orders to zanjeros to turn on water are to be made out. The rule was made to fit the projects where there is d definite irrigation season. Here, water may be put on the land with profit the year around, and there is no cessation of the demand. Consequent iy, the proposed system will involve delays in securing fresh runs.

REPUBLICAN EMBLEMS GO n

Tokens of Regard for One of the Best Football Teams Phoenix High Ever Had Will Be Delivered at the Assembly

Fifteen football heroes, developed during the past season in the Phoe- nix high, will receive little gold foot ball badges at the high school today in the event President Cook calls the assembly he planned yesterday Charles A. Stauffer. business manager of The Republican, who is slated to make the presentation speech. had five stenographers working on his remarks last night
 And, oh, yes There is another hero who will get a badge from The Re publican. His name is Francis Geary. He was the coach, who has builded three state championship teams out of the material he found in the ranks of the Coyotes, and who has grabbed considerable bacon for the good old Phoenix High by means of sundry good track teams. Geary has worked with iots of handicaps, sometimes, but he has put Phoenix high on the football map of the Southwest.
 It is the plan to present the first Republican emblem to Thomas Mar lar, captain of the 1915 eleven. Then. as the speaker calls the blushing young men to the platform, Captain Tommie will insert the pins in the 1d DelS, anu lll6 C6IGiHOiiy VIII bC NOill plete.
 It is not altogether for winning most every game they played that The Re publican has given these litle tokens to the Coyotes. It is partly because every Coyote has played a good game well and has won some distinction. There are various methods of encOur- aging good sportsmanship. Several years ago The Republican donated a cup over which several teams have struggled ever since. But the small gold footballs, engraved with the names of the wearers, belong to the men who have earned them, and will continue to remind them that they put up a good scrap for the institution on Van Buren street while they wore the famous Red and Black jerseys.
 The fifteen players who earned these emblems are: Wilkey, Captain Marlar Duncan, Boido Sutter, Ab- bolt, Latham, Hinton, DetWeiler, Luke, Pinney, Norton, Brandon, Walters, Teale and the beloved coach, Francis Geary.

tRepubIican A. p. Leased wirel


 LOS ANGELES, Dec. 6.-The heavy Syracuse University eleven easily de feated their lighter opponents, Occi- dental College, here today in the final football game of the season for the two teams. The score was 35 to o.
 Only once during the entire game was the Syracuse goal in danger. This was near the close of the last quarter when Occidental by a series of forward passes and punts aided by a tumble, rushed the ball within two yards of the goal The Syracuse line braced and held. Occidental attempted forward pass but it was intercepted and on the next play Syracuse punted sout of danger
 A ninety yard run by Slater of Syra- cuse in the last quarter was easily the most sensational feature of the game. Slater caught the ball from a kick off by Occidental and with the aid of in terference rushed down the field to the Occidental nine yard line before he was doWned. In the same quarter Lenz of Occidental brought the crowd to their feet when he intercepted Syracuse forward pass and broke through the line for a 8 yard run. It was the lolI50SL run Ilsiu6 Dy all OCCIueIlIdl man during the game.
 Captain McClung of the Occidental team, suffered a severe fracture of the right leg near the ankle at the begin ming of the third quarter when he was thrown by Slater.
 Syracuse demonstrated superior ability at line plunging and in circling the ends, but Occidental out ranked them in handling the forward pass Practically all of OccidentaIs gains were made with this method of play.
 Syracuses first touchdown came within nine minutes after the opening Of play. The second touchdown fol- lowed in four minutes
 Occidental held their heavier oppon- ents in the second quarter during the greater part of which the ball was in Syracuse territory. In the third quar- ter Slater of Syracuse kicked off to Smith, who downed the ball behind the line. making a safety for Syracuse. Syracuse scored three touchdowns in the last quarter, but Rose missed two goals. making the final score Syracuse B, Occidental 0.
