DRAWINGS MADE FOR
DAVIS CUP TENNIS
England to Meet Belgium in
Challenge Tourney

Sydney, n. S. W, March 6-Officers
OF the Australian Tennis association
completed the draw for the Davis
cup international tournament here
yesterday. The teams of Great Brit
ain and Belgium will meet first, the
winner in turn to play France for tho
right to challenge Australasia, the
present holder of the trophy, en-
blSmatic of the worlds team cham
p1onship. No dates were fixed in the
draw, it being understood that the ma
tons represented in the preliminary
rounds will select dates suitable for
the matches which will be played in
Europe.
The challenge round for the Davis
cup. If prccedents are followed will
probably be played in Melbourne late
IN November or during the first week
of December. At present the Davis
cup is in this country, although held
by Australasia as a result of the vic
tory of BrOokes and WiIdinC over the
American team at Forest Hills, l.. l.,
in 1914. The declaration of war,
which preceded the final matches,

Warded to Australia during the next
few months.
Members of the United States Ma
tiOhal Lawn Tennis association were
greatly interested yesterday in the
report of the blind drawings for the
Davis cup matches 1t was pointed
out that by a strange coincidence the
result of the drawing is the same as
that of 1914. when the international
play resulted in the loss of the trophy
by-,this country. In that series the
British Isles defeated Belgium
matches to 0 and France to 1. Later
the British were defeated, 8 to 2, by
Australasia, which in turn won from
the United States by the same score
If the previous system is adopted
this season the preliminary rounds
will probably be completed some
time in July and the challenging team
viii start for Australia within a few
weeks after the final matches. Tt is
not improbable under the circum-
stances that the American association
will extend an invitation to the WIN
ming Ombination to travel to the an
tipodes via the United States and to
compete in the national champion
ship tournaments while en- route
The English team, if it reached the
challenge round, could appear at
Forest Hills, L. l., during the last
week of August and later sailing

BILL CLERK CALLED. NON HAZARDOUS JOB BY SUPREME COURT

A half dozen opinions were handed down by the supreme court yesterday afternoon, among them one in the case of the Arizona Eastern Railroad com pany. appellant against J. A. Mat thews, appellee, Maricopa county, re- versing the opinion of the lower court awarding the appellee 5000 for per sonal injury. The appellee was an em- ploye of the appellant. His injury was sustained in falling into pit that had been dug for pair of scales. the work not being finished on a certain night The pit was left uncovered, and the plaintiff appellee. though using. care and diligence, fell into it.
 There were 2S assignments of error, but the supreme court found it neces- sary to consider only one, the failure of the court to instruct a verdict in favor of the defendant on the ground that the plaintiff had elected to stand on the employers liability act As he was a bill clerk and his duties were purely clerical. 1t was the contention of the defendant that he could not re- cover under an act that was intended only for the protection of those en- gagged in hazardous occupations. Tha;
 
 view was sustained by the appellate 1 court.
 Other matters disposed of were: i Frank R. Johnson, appellant, against I W. V. Wright and E. F. Sanguinetti l appellees. Yuma county; affirmed. ,

MATTHEWS REELECTED
 SUPERINTENDENT IF MESA CITY SCHOOLS

MESA, April 1I.-At a joint meeting of the Mesa Union High school trustees and those of the grade schools of the town, held on Tuesday night, it was unanimously voted to re-employ Sup erintendent of Schools H. E. Matthews for the next year. This will make the third year of MT. Matthews with the Mesa schools and they have been years of growth and conservative upbuilding to the entire system, with everything of fuss and false display eliminated. Care fully, wisely and yet with the necessary boldneSs, has the superintendent planned the work and in the carrying out of the necessary arrangements, he has been ably seconded by two sets of trustees, whose management of the schools under their charge has been singularly harmonious and successful. | A most important step was under taken when the board at the meeting called an election for May 10th, to see whether the voters of the district will decide to vote s1e0, 900 bonds for 1 additions to the present high school
 building.
 It is a fact, so the trustees affirm 1 that had it not been for the influenza | epidemic, the present quarters could not have accommodated the pupils
 This epidemic closing the schools fol ! two months, caused considerable
 number of pupils to miss the remainder
 of the year and made possible the
 needed room for those that remained Now with the constant increases ir population, and the large number o eighth grade pupils, there is need fo, additional room, which unless met, vii

 an impossibiiity. The present higf
 school was figured for around 200 pu'
 pills and has had several score more than that during the present term.

 The last named was a case in which the appellee had brought suit against the appellant for damages sustained in being run down by a car belonging to the appellant and driven by his minor son. The court declined to go into the evidence adduced at the trial but rested on the fact that the son was not at the time of the accident or business for the appellant.

TO TEACH VOCATIONAL
 WORK AT ALMA SCHOOL

MESA, April 17.-At the Tuesday night meeting of the trustees of the Alma school, steps were taken that will call for radical departures from the ordinary grade work, and is nothing less than lining up the school system so as to take advantage of the Smith Hughes act. for vocational work. and which under a law recently enacted can be taken advantage of by grade schools whereas formerly the benefits of the federal appropriation were con fined to high schools.
 The plan as outlined by trustee Alma Davis yesterday is that since the state now requires the child to stay in school until the age of Is even though he may have completed the eighth grade earlier it was decided by the trustees some days ago to introduce the vocational work into the school, complying in all particulars with the requirements of the federal act, remodeling the grade work SO that even after the child passes the eighth grade before the age of sixteen, provision might be made for a stron- course in vocational training, with such other studies as are to be worked out in the further planning of the board and the principal. Particular attention will be given to agriculture and the new principal of the school, A. A. lselam. a graduate of the Uni versity of Arizona. has met the voca- tional requirements of the Smith H1Sffes act, which are said to be very rigid The location of the school pksx aeToea from the sszte agricultural farm, places before the students Of a<ricnl- tore the benefits fo be derived from the experiments constantly being carried sn at the farm. The Alma school is the first grade school in the state to the progress of the work will be watched with interest in educational circles.

His Richness, the S2O-Hog.

Six weeks ago all sorts of apprehension was
felt concerning the price of hogs. How far
would the drop go when the government "regu-
lation" of prices terminated on March l? At
that time $3.50 was set as the basic price, and
anything under this was loss, according to the
notions given currency At Kansas City Ne
braska farmer has just disposed of car load
of fat pigs for the tidy sum of 5000 per hun
dred, his shipment of 68 peers of the porcine
realm bringing him $3,58o.04. No wonder the
Farmers union wants to start cooperative
bank; the ordained institutions will not be able
to take care of the money that is coming into
the state if pig values continue at this rate Of in
crease. Nobody pretends to account for the
ascent Of prices nor to predict that the top has
been reached. In the meantime the clamor
against the grasping packers has somewhat sub
sided, while a hungry world calls for more
bacon than ever. The future seems rosy for
the hog breeders.

Some Consoling Figures.

The bureau of war risk insurance has given
out some figures that must serve to reassure
the people as to the extent of serious personal
injury suffered by the soldiers. 1t is authority
for the statement that only IFS cases of total
blindness have been returned, and of these some
are not yet given up as permanently blind. This
should be compared with the fact that more
than $4,000 permanently blinded persons were
in the United States prior to the war. Less
than 1900 amputations were performed, and not
one case wherein the victim lost both arms and
both legs. The toll of industrial accident is
greater than this annually. All we'll know and
appreciate the risk assumed by the soldier going
into battle, but the figures provided by the gov
eminent must be gratifying when they show
how far anticipation outran realization. Much
of the good result noted is certainly due to the
skill and devotion of the surgeons, and to them
must 60 the credit for reducing the wreckage of
war. ..-.-.-
