lions in North Morocco.

The Spanish zone in northern
Morocco, in which recent newspaper
dispatches state important operations
have been carried out by Spanish
troops, is described in the following
bulletin issued from the Washington
D. c., headquarters Of the National
Geographic Society.
In strengthening its military hold
and extending it's civil government in
northern Morocco, Spain is turing
the tables of history squarely about.
For it was from this country that the
Moors and Arabs swarmed across the
Straits of Gibraltar in the year Ill
and placed Spain under a Moham-
medan domination. the last vestiges

the year in which Columbus dis
covered America.

This Spanish Moroccan zone is the
pedestal of the southern of the two
pillars of Hercules which for long
centuries were the western portals of
the known world. 1t is part of the
Mauritania of the Romans, one of
their granaries when the empire was
at it's greatest. 1t was the country Of
the Barbary pirat err who harassed the
shipping of the world for centuries,
collected tribute from many govern
ments and in whose suppression the
infant United States Navy cut its first
post-revolutionary war teeth in the
early part of the nineteenth century.
1t is now part of Morocco. which in
many ways preserves more truly than
any other Mohammedan country the
flavor of the Arabian Nights
Spain, lying only few miles north
of the northern shores of Morocco,

modern nations of Europe to gain a
foothold in that country. Molilla, a
seacoast town near the northeastern cor

has been recognized since an agree
ment between France and Spain in
1912, Spain has done little more at

CONGRESS URGED TO ACT
ON REINFORCEMENT
Claimed That Delay Will Force
Calling of Many Special State
Legislature Sessions.

Congress is being urged to act at this
session on the bill reapportioning the
membership of the House in accordance
with the 1920 census. Republican lead
ers are being told that many state leg
fsiatnres which will Tx the boundaries
OF the new congressional districts will
be In session in 1921, and will not be in
session In 1872. 1t is argued that post

necessltate the calling of the legisla-
lures Into extraordinary session and will
result in unnecessary expense.

The Spanish Moroccan zone is a

The country Is mountainous but con-

This portion Of Africa is free from

like the portion Of Morocco under a
French protectorate to the south
probably contains valuable mineral

so many people in town, they have
decided it would be best to hold the
fight in the evening at Sonora town,
so when the strangers come to this

to visit with friends, or go to big

you have your choice of coming on

much to tell you. The stunt / meant,
was that they were changing things
all around just to make visitors COM

bet it will be a good fight and
dandy baseball game. l understand
that the boys around here are real
fellows. Those of them that I have
met have been dandy. The weather

GAS JUMPS 4 CENTS;
SHORTAGE IS CAUSE

Gasoline jumped four cents gallon,
not only at Ray, but all over Arizona,
Monday. The list price of the precious
fluid that furnishes the pep necessary
hills around Mineral creek has, there
fore, advanced locally from 80 cents
to SO.
The acute shortage of gasoline in
California is responsible for the in
creased cost of the fluid here. The
following statement relative to the
increase was given out this week by
F. P. Hall, special agent of the Stand
ard Oil company at Ray:
"The Arizona market for gasoline
is normally supplied from California,
but the acute shortage of gasoline in
California has made it impossible to
continue the supply from that point.
Our stations in Arizona are now being
supplied with gasoline purchased by
the company from various refiners in
the mid-continent field, and the new
price in effect is based on the higher
cost of the product"
For some time it has been known
that an advance in the price of gaso-
line was imminent, and a campaign to
conserve it's use in pleasure cars has
Eaen under way for some time. The
campaign was launched by the Stand
ard Oil company in an effort to reduce
unnecessary consumption. The worst
feature of the situation is that other
advances may be necessary to meet
rising costs of gas in Arizona.

games seen on the local diamond for
some time, and if James Hutton can
get his other two players in in time
to work them out before the Miami
game Sunday, and they prove all to
the mustard, the game should be the
best of the season SO far, and will
only be eclipsed by the game July

We hope, that those who like base

Manager James Hutton of the Ray
team has finally secured a. mounds
man who is willing to cooperate with
the Ray players and help to put Ray
over as the winning team of the state.
This man will make his first ap-
pearance in Ray on Sunday, June 20,
in the game against Miami, and the
fans will have an opportunity of thor
oughly looking him over in his first
trylout in public IN this section
The new twirler is none other than
D. E. Nickel, who played for Hutchi-
son, Kan CWestern Association)
from 1907 to 1910 During the latter
part of 1910 and during 1911 he was
with the Southern League working
for Birmingham; in 1872, with the St.
Louis Cardinals; with Baltimore in
1913, 1914 and 1915, in the Federal
League. Mr.. Nickel has been playing
with the Standard Oil company team
in Phoenix, but having heard of Ray,
has decided to cast his lot with the
Copperites In addition to t'eing an
excellent pitcher, he plays good
game on first sack, which should make
him doubly useful in the Ray lineup.

The above represents the toughest
of Rufus twelve years experience.
Twenty-seven of these bouts show
knockouts.
With the two winnings that Will
Jams has made at Ray in both his
previous bouts, and Jordan having
won most of his recent bouts, it
looks as though the go between Cliff
Jordan and Rufus at Ray on July 5th
will be one of the best matches ever
staged in Arizona.
This should prove drawing card
from all the surrounding country, and
the Phoenix fans, as well as those
closer to home, will have an oppor-
tunity of seeing Jordan and Rufus
stretched to their limit to win this
bout
