BOOSTERS ELECT NEW
 OFFICERS FOR YEAR


 The Boosters club at their lunch con at the Confection Den yesterday elected new officers for the ensuing year. Neither Chairman Geo. T Harrington nor Secretary Frank Har- rison, both of whom had filled their offices so acceptably during the last year, would consent to serve again.
 Earl Slipher nominated c. B. Will son for chairman, but the latter said he felt he was too busy to accept Then l.. c. Riley nominated T. A. Stahl, who was unanimously elected and took the chair, handling his job during the rest of the meeting like a veteran. He said he felt the club had made a mistake in electing him, to which C. B. Wilson retorted that if it was mistake at all it was "big one" Looking at Toms more than six feet amply justifies the retort.
 MT. Wilson nominated Del Strong for secretary, and he was elected.
 Tom l.. Rees reported for his com mittee that the old Presbyterian church cannot be secured for the clubs meetings because of rule made some time ago by the trustees that the building can be used only for religious purposes.
 Chairman Stahl appointed Captain J. B. Wright, L. c. Riley and Del Strong to see whether arrangements can Be made for the luncheon-meet- ings at either the city hall or the Elks hall. .s
 Adjutant General Walter S. Ingalls, was introduced. He said he wanted to thank this community for the won- derful spirit shown in organizing the battery. Captain E. M. Robison spoke of the many advantages coming to the town through the battery and urged the organization of a band, saying that if we can get 30 men to sign up for battery band, Col. Ingalls, thinks he can get the instruments from the military department of the state for us. The members of the band would be separate from the battery, though connected with it, and would have their own non-commissioned officers. The captain said he would guarantee to raise the money to pay a band in- structor for the first year. It would " uSNN4uat tCiCu dt lHe UdLLeTy, would be allowed expenses and the members would receive drill pay. J. 5. Gunter has ben appointed to se- B. Gunter has been appointed to se-

CLARK SITE SELECTED
Continued from Page 1.)

The sentiment of those at the meet ing was crystalized by the motion of Mrs. R. c. Stevenson that the board be requested soon to build ward school in the northeastern part of the town, and the motion of John M. Clark that at least five acres of the Clark site be bought by the board for the high school site. Both motions car ried by practically unanimous votes.
 L. E. Hart tolled the funeral bell for the North Leroux site when he said that it was a bog-hole in wet weather. MT. Crable announced that, contrary to the belief the board had until then held, they had just discov- cred that the law did not permit. them to name any site on the ballot nor to make suggestions as to sites; that all suggestions were to come from the taxpayers, each of whom, when vot- ing, wrote his or her favorite site on the ballot.
 There was some discussion about whether this is union school district. It is not. While this district, No. 1, extends from Bellemont on the west, to the county line on the east, and from Grand Canyon on the north to the south county line, and is larger than some states, the dozen or more smaller country districts that have in the last few years been carved out of District No. 1, participate neither in the voting nor ir any bonds that may be issued for this districts schools. Hence such bonds are issued on an as- sessed valuation of only $7,500,000, in stead of on nearly twice that amount, as would be the case if all of original District No. 1 helped pay the bills.
 Now that the voters have settled the bonding question, the board will have to arrange some way to take care of the first and second year high school pupils at Emerson school until the new high school is completed, in 1921. This probably can easily be done by cutting the assembly room into three class rooms; or there may be some other way to do it. At any rate, there is no fear that any of the children will suffer because of the defeat of the plan to enlarge Emer- son school.
 The suggestion that the northeast ern ward school be built at once in time to take care of the high school school pupils this winter or else re- lieve the congestion in the lower grades and thus give the high school room at Emerson, is claimed to be not feasible, as the trustees fear the ward school could not be built in time.
 It is believed that it is the present intention of the school trustees to be- gin planning at once for building the new high school and two ward schools, one of the latter in the north eastern part of town, on North Le- roux or North Agassiz street, and the other on the south side of the tracks. The lease of the Brannen school is nearly up and it will be neces- sary to make arrangements to release at once, or perhaps, to build on the block near the Normal school, owned by the school district. s
 Will Marian at the mass meeting suggested that three or four ward

CAFE AT PHOENIX BURNS

Fire, which destroyed the rear of the St. Francis Cafe in Phoenix and damaged merchandise in adjoining buildings, occurred at 6 o'clock Tues day morning. The fire originated in the rear of the cafe following an ex- plosion of coal gas in the cooking range. The damage to the safe was estimated by Mutton Stamatis, the owner, at $20,0O0.
 Mir. Stamatis said two men came to work each morning at 5:30 o'clock to clean the kitchen and to start a fire in the stove preparatory to the arriv- al of the cooks at 6 o'clock. He be- lieves that in starting the fire the men put too much coal'in the stove, which was warm from the day before, creating a gas which later exploded.
