SPECIAL TRAINS
TO Bring CROWD
ON JULY FIFTH

AS the Copper Camp goes to press
arrangements are under way at Phoe-
nix for a special train from the capt.
tai city for the great celebration to
be staged here next Monday, bringing
the Standard Oil team, the best team
in the Salt River valley for game
with Doc Hutton's professionals, and
a large crowd of fans to take in the
ball game and the Jordan Williams
fight Monday evening.
A special train from Hayden, bring
ing a large contingent of fans from
the concentrator city, is due to arrive
in Ray about noon. The trains will
leave Ray after the fight at Sonora,
Monday evening.
Although it is conceded that the
Frontier Days celebration at Prescott
and the bringing of a navy team from
the Pacific coast to Phoenix for the
fifth may tend to reduce attendance
from the capital city, yet interest in
the Jordan Williams bout here is keen
among fight fans in the valley, and
it is anticipated that a big crowd of
visitors will be on hand for the great
est celebration ever staged in the Ray
district.

SUCCEED WOLFE
in NJ. 6 M. BANK
Well liked Cashier Of Local
Financial Institution Goes
to Needles; Other Changes
in Organization Are An
nounced.

Mr.. r. c., Kaufman of Winslow
Arizona, has purchased the interests
of Mr.. c. L. Wolfe, cashier, and Mr..
w. E. Arnold, vice-president, of the
Merchants and Miners Bank Mr..
Kaufman will succeed Mr.. Wolfe, who
goes from here to take charge of the
Bank of Needles, at Needles, Cali
fornia another of the T. M. Que
bedeauX string of banks.
The other change in the personnel
is that Mr.. Crawford Harvie, presi-
dent of the Border National Bank,
becomes director to succeed Mr..
Arnold, and Mr. Kaufman will sue
ceed Messrs. Wolfe and Arnold as
vice-president and cashier.
With the new arrangement, the di-
rectors will be: T. M. Quebedeaux,
president of the Arizona State Bank
at Winslow and of the Bank of
Needles; Mr. Crawford Harvie, presi-
dent of the Border National Bank, at
Ell Paso; H. H. Mcdonald of the Mer-
chants and Miners Bank at Ray, with
r. c. Kaufman, vice-president and
cashier at Ray.

dent and cashier; John B. Quinn, as
sistant cashier.
In welcoming Mr.. Kaufman and
family to Ray, the Copper Camp, on
behalf of the citizens, extend to Mr..
and Mrs. Wolfe best wishes for flu
ture success. The Merchants and
Miners, under the able guidance of
Mr. Wolfe, who came to, Ray a
stranger during dull times, has made
wonderful strides, and good per.
centage of it's success is due to the
personality of Mr. Wolfe. The camp
will lose a good citizen when Mr..
Wolfe leaves, and as Mr.. Kaufman
comes well recommended we bespeak
for him the kindliest consideration on
behalf of the patrons of the M. & M
bank, as well as all Rayites.

Great Celebration Here Monday To Draw Huge Crowds
FLORENCE GETS SMALL end OF SCORE
IN SUNDAY CONTEST At COUNTY SEAT

The Florence team, its Champion
ship" aspirations considerably wilted,
was defeated last Sunday by Doc Hut
toms aggregation of ball tossers at
the county seat, a sadder and wiser
bunch. For, try as they might against
the Rayites, the county seat conglom-
Grafton of alleged performers was un-
able to score more than five runs,
while Ray easily garnered seven tai
lies.
The visitors started in the first IN
ming with one run Lat were tied in
the second. In the third frame Ray
added three more, and annexed one
more in the fourth, leaving the score
five to one. In the fifth Floro1ce
spurted up and made three runs, but
their hopes of winning the contest
were short lived After two frames
in which both sides accumulated
goose eggs, Ray tackled on two more
tallies, and ninth inning score by
the county seat aggregation ended
the agony for them.
Some of the Florentines did some
hard hitting, but at no tine was the
game in danger Of being taken from
the Ray refrigerator, where Doc Hut
ton had it laid snugly away on the ice.

BY Nose, the BootbIack
Rufus will win again; he will have
a harder time than he had with Kid
George, but still l think he is the
best man of his weight in the coun-
try. If Jordan only had a sore RIB
like George had when he came here,
I'd bet the roll, providing could bor-
row it from Dr. Pruitt, but l haven't
got very much this trip, so 1 won't
ride very strong.
Sporting Editor Tucson Citizen
Jordan ought to hit Rufus with ev
erything except the water bucket, and
if Rufus gets out of that ring alive,
he is going to do all that can be exr
pected of him. I am surprised that
Ray secured a match between these
two men; it is the best card in Ari-
zona by long odds.
BY Harold Duff
The people here have never seen
Rufus when he is in hard fight; he
is better than ever l think Jordan
will give him terrible battle, but
Rufus ought to win by good mar
gin. He hits harder than Jordan and
is just as clever Rufus looks best
to me.
Art Shannon, Promoter at Globe
Unless Jordan has gone back "a
great deal since his last fight with
Battling Ortega, he VIII beat Rufus
by a wide margin, and / would not
be surprised to hear that he puts
Rufus away. Jordan is out of the
negro's class and will win in walk.
This is the best fight we have ever
put on here in Arizona. Congratula-
tions to the Ray promoter.
BY J. McQuiIlan, Manager of Jordan
Cliff will win within ten rounds.
He has been in training every day
since his last bout with Ortega and is
in splendid shape. 1 expect to get
more offers here in Arizona after this
Williams fight than we have been
getting out in California, and 1 want
to see Cliff in the ring against Mike
O'Dowd. I am confident Cliff is the
hest middleweight in the country and
will stake my roll he can beat ODowd
or Wilson over the fifteen-round
route. A long fight suits Cliff better
than these four-round go's, and after
this we are going to box in states that
permit the longer fights. Take my
tip that Cliff will win without strug-
! gle.

IRA RICKERSON is
coming CLAY Bird
ERADICATOR, right

The last shoot of the season was
held on the Ray Gun club grounds
Sunday, June 9th. Nine shooters
were there and all of them full of
pep and eager for their favorite sport
to commence After the shoot was
over and the scores were added up
it was found that Mullen was high,
Rickerson, second, and Boyd and
Cook were tied for third place. When
a young fellow with good eyes and a
steady nerve stands up and breaks 80
out Of 100 and who has only been
shooting for about eight months and
has shot at less than 1900 targets, he
is going some and you had better
keep your eye on him. On top of this
wonderful performance he breaks 81
clay birds without a miss and / can
not help but say that he is mighty
good shot This blue rock shooter,

spinner is our friend Ira. I have
heard him say that he was going to

missed it.

on the coast. His friends predict
Rufus will get hit with everything
but the Water-bucket.
Upon the outcome of the fight here
next Monday depends the future of
the boxing game in Ray. If Cliff Jor-
dan is good enough to beat Rufus
Williams, the town is his to have and
to hold until he comes back for an
other match. If he is defeated, the
promoter of the American Legion is
convinced that it is impossible to
bring a better man to fight Rufus,
because the size of the town and the
finances of the Legion make it i'm
possible About two-thirds of the peo-
pie who will attend the fight next
Monday evening at the old Juarez
theater in Sonora are going there for
one purpose, that is to see Rufus meet
his master If Rufus brings home the
/ bacon again, well-it's goodnight,
nurse"
Jordan arrived here last Wednes-
day and went through his workouts
like a champion. He is in wonderful
condition and at the end of his fif-
teen-roundi workout he hollered for
more. The climate bothers him not
the slightest. for, to use his own
| .Io in nc
Angeles than It is here, and I'm never
better than when l work up a good
sweat"
Rufus is in the pink of condition
and is taking this fight more seriously
than any of his previous battles. He
realizes that this is the hardest fight
of his life and he is working like a
Trojan His usual care-free spirit is
gone and he is determined that some
body is going to be fooled and it
won't be Rufus He feels that he has
been matched against man whom
the fight fans figure is the best in
his division, and Rufus has got a
hunch that he will have to fight Jor-
dan and all the spectators as well,
and he's getting ready to demonstrate
that he is equal to the task. In our
humble judgment, he is equal to it,
for never in our widest dreams can
we picture Rufus lying there cold and
quivering on the canvas with Jordan
or any other middlewefght in the
world standing over him. He's too
crafty, and Rufus is a far more dan
erous boxer when he is overmatched
than he is when he is boxing some
one near his weight and some one
whom he figures he can beat We
have seen Rufus knocked down two
or three times within a round, and
he has risen to his feet Ike an en-
ragged panther and tore in after his
adversary as though his very life were
at stake; we have seen him turn al
most certain defeat into victory by
his superior ring generalship and his
knowledge of the game. Rufus can
beat Speedball Hayden every day in
the week and twice on Sunday if he
would only keep his head when he
fights him. But Rufus hates Speed
ball as no two dark1eS ever hate0
each other before, and when the bell
rings, Rufus throws cleverness and
experience to the four winds and tears
tears in to land that one wicked wal
lop. But Speedball keeps his head
and keeps away from Rufus until it
is time to shoot that right across, and
then the fight is over.
Jordan has beaten middleweights
whom all the sporting authorities fig
ure are the topnotchers in their div
lsion, and has yet to be knocked out

M'NAUGHTON TELLS
OF PROBLEMS OF
MICHIGAN Mines


Houghton, Mich.-Only expert man.
agerial and engineering ability can
make the Michigan copper mines pay
even in the best of times, and today
they are running at an actual loss,
according to James /MacNaughton,
vice president and general manager
of the Calumet & Hecla Mining Co.
eve are handicapped by the most
difficult form of mining" said Mr.
MacNaughton, "and by the fact that
We have the lowest grade of rock, or
ore, in any operating mines. 1 have
made compilation of returns from
copper mining in the most important
districts for the year 1919.
"The Michigan mines on an average
produced 22O2 pounds of copper to
the ton of rock. The porphyry mines
of the Southwest produce 2221 pounds,
Montana 50.58 and the sulphide mines
of Arizona 1904 pounds to the ton of
their ore"
Mr.. MacNaughton explained that
the Michigan mines are the deepest
mines in the world, condition great
ly adding to the costs. He referred
to the porphyry mines as FARMS
because the mining there consists in
blasting out the side of a mountain
and removing the ore with steam
shovels. In Michigan the rock comes
from the depths as great as 5000
feet
ITO offset these handicaps," said
Mr.. MacNaughton, 81 can think of no
advantage unless it be the very slight
one that our copper is comparatively
easy to refine.
due to the war and other condi-
tions we are now still further handi-
capped by scarcity of labor. Here
as elsewhere necessity is the mother
of invention. In time past the hard
work of the mines was done by imrni-
grants. There has been no immigra-
ton to speak of in five years. This
shortage has prompted inventive men
to work on the problem of providing
mechanical devices for shoveling un-
derground. 1 do not believe any one
machine will ever be invented that
can perform all the shoveling opera
tions underground. But this shovel
ing work is too hard for men of this
generation and l am confident that
in time some. combination of ma
chimes will be produced which will
do 80 per- cent of the hardest under
ground labor.
with the coming of these, mil
lions and millions of tons of low grade
stuff will be made available for the
market at a profit. 1 might ever
suggest the hope that rock with as
low a content as IL pounds to the tor
will be mined.
"In 1875 the old Osceola mine sus
pended operations because of the lear
character of its rock. 1t was run
ming only 26 pounds to the ton. Tha
would be considered bonanza today.
with all these natural and engi
neering handicaps, the Michigan cop
per mines have a greater burden o
taxation to carry than have the mine!
of other districts

forced to play an important part in the
world affairs of the future, and those
who have by evasion Of important issues
attempted to keep the country isolated
from international affairs were severely
criticised.
