WORK ON ARROYO.
Contractor BanksOn Will Put a
Crew on This Morning.

Work on the contract for COW
ereing the arroyo from the
Crawford street bridge north
for several hundred feet will he
started Thursday morning.
Contractor Bankson has en-
gagged a crew of laborers, and
the preliminary clearing away of
the debris in the bottom of the
ditch will be the first object.
The successful bidder is push
ing the work of getting the ma
terial on the ground, and as soon
as the preliminary work is suf-
ficiently advanced, and the ma
terial arrives, he will have the
concrete mixers at work, and
will start the construction of the
on which the up
per structure of the long bridge
will rest.
The progress of the work will
make necessary the removal Of
the stone coping along the edge
of the arroyo, but Contractor
Bankson says that he will take
every precaution to guard
against danger from taking
away the guard rail and coping.
Mr.. Bankson is very anxious
to push the work to completion
as soon as possible, one reason
being that rapid work will lesse,
the chance of interruption by
the rains.
The completion of the work
will make a marked difference
in the appearance of this section
of Nogales, and will give the city
a business square that will be
credit to the community.

FORM $500 CLUB
 FOR WAR SAVINGS

The state war savings director, Howell Cheney, will send out this week letters to prospective members of the $500 Governor Holcomb War Savings club. As the name implies, this club contemplates taking into it's member ship everyone who will agree to pur- chase $500 maturity value of the War Savings Stamps in the year 1918. The State Director has asked the local committees to canvass all possible names and send in their addresses as soon as possible in order that he may forward to them his invitations for membership. The invitation will con- tain a form of pledge which recipients are asked to sign and return to Cover nor Holcomb. In Bridgeport the local committee had already started a $500 club and had enrolled several sub scribers, although the idea of desig- mating subscribers to this class as members of the Governor Holcomb club is a new and attractive idea of the State Directors. Already enrolled in this class in Bridgeport are City Treasurer M. w. Manwaring, Norman Leeds, Treasurer of the Automatic Machine Co.

BLAME SPY FOR
 DIVERTING U. s. ARMY TRANSPORT
(continued from Page 1.)

II OlAA | oS5S ~ shifted the zigzagging course of the vessel to a material degree and that the ship was placed thereby in grave danger of submarine attack.
 The transport, safe at her berth, brings with it crew, the members of which tell of the brush with the underwater vessel and of the cour- ageous conduct under fire of those who manned the American guns, who, fighting against great odds, had won the day. All stand ready to brave the submarines again, and the morale of the unit is unimpaired.
 The transport made only one trip overseas. After clearing from an At lantic port she joined her convoy and began the trip across without special incident until she neared the hostile zone. Then things began to happen. First her engine went wrong," and she was compelled to drop behind the convoy, believing the trouble could be corrected in a short time. But this was not the case and when the repairs were made the transport was separated from her convoy. but not alone, for proceeding along her course the lookout sighted a subma- rine dead astern, less than mile away.
 The gun crew of the transport was thrown into action and the stern gun was opened up at tho enemy craft. Al this time the underwater boat showed fight, and, using her shrapnel guns the submarine dropped shrapnel or the transport.
 The submarine let loose one of hel torpedoes, but the transport maneuV cred and let it pass, close to her stern Using shrapnel again, the Germans worked effectively, several shots find ing their mark. The crew of th' transport were having trouble with th' range. To add to the transports pre- dfcament, the chief gunner had hi clothing nearly stripped from his bod, in a hail of small shell. He wa wounded in the leg.
 As usual there was an Americal present who jumped into the breecl took the place of the wounded chic gunner, and proved himself equal t the occasion. The volunteer was a year old boy.
 In the meanOme the eHeIhy Ci idA had pulled up to within 900 yard and sent up the signal: Surrender we are overhauling you" The gul crew on the transport answered wit their first hit.
 Again came the signal to surrender from less than 800 yards, but tn transport replied with another hit, an the men swore they would die 1ghtin rather than give a satisfactory answe to the Hun challenge.
 The shot that closed hostflities wa a direct hit, which landed fairly on tn periscope deck of the submarine, an with it's bursting the under sea crat was seen to dive or sink. The crew exhausted but enthusiastic, did nc finger to investigate the fate of tn enemy ship.
