Two new members of the board, Mrs. Pauline O'Neill of Phoenix, and Mrs. Rosa Mckay of Globe, will be present for the first time since their appoint ment a few weeks ago. The other members are O. s.

 Phoenix: Squeezing through a hole of such small dimensions as to seen almost prohibitive for any human body, Jesus Gonzales and Charle: Broad effect an escape from the cit! jail last evening. Both men were being held on burglary charges. Con gales and Broad had been locked il one of the cells in the feminine warC of the jail for safe keeping. Some time during the early evening hours they broke off a portion of the woodeI window casing. They then tore awal a portion of the heavy steel wire ove the cell bars and through this opening effected their escape. A bit of contor tion was necessary to make possible the escape, officers are convinced The hole through which the mel passed was only a trifle larger thai the ordinary space between steel bars Yet there was some evidence tha both men had had some difficulty il forcing their little bodies through tn, aperture.
