BUT ONE CHANGE MADE IN COUNTY H|CHWAY COMM.
Clarence Baldwin, Chand- Ter, to Succeed Eugene Hackett = Other Four Members to Remain

The uncertainty which had existed for the past week concerning the per sonnel of the Maricopa county high way commission for the next two years was dispelled yesterday after noon when the board of supervisors re- appointed A. F. Jones, P. T. Hur- ley, Jed Peterson and A. A Carrick and named Clarence Baldwin to be a member vice chairman Eugene Hackett.
 The terms of the members of the first highway commission expired or March 31. It was rumored that an entirely new commission would be named, but c. $. Steward and Guy L. Vernon, the Republican members the board could not agree upon the appointees, though altogether within the last week the names of no les than a dozen citizens were suggested.
 It was finally decided by MT. Stew ard and Mir. Bradshaw, the Demo- cratic member of the board, to make only one change by the appointment of a Republican. MT. Baldwin was finally agreed upon
 The assent of Mr Vernon to this arrangement was not secured and when the nominations were made, he offered the names of an entirely new board. During the entire session Mir. Vernon stood for the appointment of a commission, but his vote was overruIed by the other members of the board.
 New Member a Chandler Man

 The meeting of the board opened at 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon. A large number of people were present dur ing the discussion on the appoint ments to be made. The meeting was called to order by MT. Vernon, chair man of the board, and nominations

 DRAMATIC CLUB PLAY

A large audience greeted the Ari- zona School of Music Dramatic club last evening at the high school audi torium when the farce comedy "Tommy's Wife" was given for the benefit of the girl reserves of the Y. w. c. A.
 The comedy was preceded by "snappy" curtain raiser entitled By Courier" written by O. Henry. The three characters, The Man, The Girl, and the News Boy, were taken by Dwight E. Earle, Meredith Bishop, and John Girand, who held the at tention of the audience entirely. Each one fitted and looked the part and, what is more. acted it. In fact. one of the noticeable things of the entire evening was how well the cast had been selected to fit the characters portrayed.
 While the stage was being prepared for the play, Louise Jackson, a well known reader, presented a mono logue, Keeping a Seat at the Bene- fit" by Margaret Cameron Her die tion and poise were those of a profes- l sional Mrs. Easily is to present her 1 in recital at the School of Music in 1 the near future.

Tenn. Bids by the J. H. Mulrein Plumbing Supply company and Claude Fisher were the only two on supplies for water line extensions to be favor ably passed upon by the city com mission yesterday. Mulrein was giv- en the contract to furnish Shut-off valves and valve boxes and Fisher will furnish Columbia fire hydrants.

as many different firms gathered into the commission chambers at the city hall to hear the verdict. As one prominent contractor looked about at the crowd he exclaimed:
 And just a few months ago I was the only bidder on a much bigger contract than this-'
 This sharp competition resulted in low figures, but it also brought some dissension. This phase was empha- sized when City Engineer L. B. Hitchcock recommended that the bid of Claude Fisher on vitrified glazed pipe for the sewer extensions be ac- cepted A representative of one of the competing bidders immediately raisd the objection that concrete pipe could be installed at a lower figure. The city commission decided to take the matter under further considera- tion before awarding the pipe con- tract Fishers bid for the vitrified glazed pipe was s72,6f2- The lowest bid for cement pipe was that of Doyle Brothers S69,044

 COMMISSION POST

Oscar Zapf was yesterday appointed chief clerk of the investment depart ment of the state corporation com mission to succeed MT. Williamson who was recently made secretary of the commission. The appointment of MT. Zapf was determined upon at thar time but as former chief clerk of the house in the legislature he was en- gagged in bringing up the proceedings of the house for the printers and could not, therefore, at once enter upon his duties.
 That work is now nearly finished. It might already now be out of the way but for the fact that the ser vices of the printer were placed at the clerical force of the senate under Secretary Roy Davidson in the busi- ness of closing the affairs of the senate
