One More Week To Kill Ducks; Birds
 Coming This Way

Cold weather up north is driving the ducks back to Arizona and the federal game laws are driving the hunters wilder than the ducks. Just about the time the big ones come Hooking down from the northern states the law comes along and says don't shoot"
 Duck season closes next Monday, but between now and Monday night the Nimrods will get In some good work. The offensive has already started and the sinking sun counts bodies and bodies of birds hanging near the old camp fire while the hunters play chef to madame canvasbac5 and the biz mallards.
 A number of Canadian geese have been killed this season. probably due to the fact that cold weather set in early above the border. The Buckeye dis trict attracts the largest number of hunters and the hunters all report good hunting in that vicinity.
 The months of January, February and March are conceded the I sst for duck hunting fin Arizona, but the sea son closes January 31 and the boys must get in their final work this week. Five more days to bag 5000 ducks Hooking around the river and dams in the valley. Did you get your quota?

Mesa and Phoenix All Stars To Play
 Here Next Sunday

Mesa will send 8 regular aggregation of ball tossers over here Sunday aft ernoon in an effort to lower the official standing of the Phoenix All-Stars. The Mesa boys have lined a fast team and Gill or Lush will do the twirling for Phoenix husky batters.
 The All-Stars are trying to induce Duke Cross to come out once more be- fore leaving the Salt River valley. Duke goes to Vernon muy pronto and the boys at home will be watching the score sheets to see how the home boy makes good in the minors. Duke has pitched great ball in the valley and perhaps he will agree to come out for just one more game. If he bows to the wishes of the teams and the fans he will shoot 'em from the rubber at Eastlake park Sunday.
 The All-Stars are flushed with their victory over Glendale last week and now they crave a scalp or two from over wonder. The weather Is getting ideal for outdoor sports and a good crowd is assured when the baseball bug once inoculates the system.

BIKE RIDERS INVITED n JOIN
 REPUBLICANS BIZ SOCIAB|UTY
 BICYCLE RUN SUNDAY AFTERNOON

| Everything from the rusty bike of a decade back to the modern high speed mechanically perfect bike of today may be entered in the run. Grand father may get out his old high wheel long since stored in the attic. polish it up and come along
 The run will be headed by Fred St. Onge. a bicycle rider of world re- nown. He will ride an old fashioned 54-inch high wheel bike Every one who enters the sociability run will be shown the tricks of fancy and safe bi- cycle riding.
 Can you stand still when sitting or a wheel2 Can you stand on your head when you ride a bicycle? Do you know how to clean your bicycle and keep it in first class running order? St Onge will answer these questions and tell you how to do fancy and trick riding next Sunday afternoon.
 The Republican sociability bicycle run will start from the Heard build ing next Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock. The cyclists will take a run out in the country not over a distance of five miles. When the riders reach the end of the course, at a point to be named later, they will spend the afternoon in an old-fashioned compe- tition meet and St Onge will demon strate some of the riding stunts that made him famous in every part of the world
 St. Onge has obtained the co-opera- ton of the bicycle dealers in Phoenix and the prospects indicate the biggest event of it's kind ever held fin the southwest. St Onge was on the street yesterday afternoon riding his old high wheel and the bike and rider excited more interest than a modern airplane. Every resident Of Phoenix has watched an airplane flight. but the number of persons who have never seen an old high wheel would almost fill the city directory. St. Onge will appear on the streets every day be- tween now and Sunday. If you see a 54-inch wheel coming your way don't get excited and blame 1t on a heavy breakfast, but clip out the entry blank and join in the big Republican socia- bility bike run next Sunday afternoon.
 You've listened to the old folks tell of the good old bicycle days-but do you realize that the bicycle is coming back stronger than ever? Drop into any local cycle shop and ask the pro- prietor how many wheels he sells dur ing the year. You will doubt his fig ures, but nevertheless he will be tell ing you the truth. If every wheel in Phoenix was parked on Central avenue at one time the traffic officer would have to route the motor traffic down one of the side streets.
 Polish up the wheel and get fin line for Sundays run. We'll have more in- teresting news to tell about the run tomorrow.

Willard Getting
 Ready For Try At
 Champion Mar. IT


 NEW YORK, Jan. 25-Jess Willard, former heavyweight champion. spent today making preliminary arrange ments for his return bout with Jack Dempsey, scheduled here March IT.
 Willard, who is accompanied by his manager, Ray Archer. stated that one of the first details to be settled is that regarding the site of his training camp and the engagement of sparring part ners.
 A number of camp quarters offered will be inspected next week.
 According to Archer, it is proposed to selet quiet, isolated camp where Willard can settle down for a six or seven weeks of training.
 A tentative list of sparring part ners has been compiled and from these from four to six heavies and light heavies will be selected
 According to WilIard's statements, these men will be picked for their fighting ability. Fast, hard hitting boxers who can give and take smash ing blows will have the call and Will lard will have enough to permit each in turn to take one or more days rest.
 A special trainer also will be named in all probability, as well as a phy- sician who will inspect Willard for muscular or organic defects
 ''No money or effort will be spared to get me into condition" said Willard. q have asked and received a chance to regain my title and I am going about it in businesshke way.'

Batting King Grooms Busi- ness Sideline for
 the Future
By Dean Snyder Bass hits and life insurancel RorArH HOrnSbv peddles both.

 The ring of his .S70 gaited bat draws the fans to tho ball park six months out of the year.
 The scratch of his pen adds to in- surance policy holders the other six. Rogers isn't leading the insurance league. But he is getting his toes dug into a secure future.
 Diamond days don't go on forever, he knows. So he's grooming a side line.
 It isn't likely that the Card star win settle back into a managers shoes when he's through with baseball.
 "Lone Wolf"
 Rogers is of a quiet, retiring disposi- tion. While on the road with the team he doesn't pal round much with the gang. His teammates call him the Lone Wolf"
 When be shows up on the ball lot he's all business. He's leading in the attack, both on the field and at the bat
 He plays the insurance game the same way. But when he's talking to a prospect his conversation peps up. st. Louis citizens consider it an hon or to have their insurance papers signed by the same hand that signs one of the fattest contracts in base ban.
 Fit9 Like tfonu9
 Rogers. like Honus Wagner. hits from the right side of the plate. The left-hand swngers have grabbed off most of the gravy fin the batting averages. There has always been keen rivalry between the fighters and the lefties.
 Before 1900 practically all the big hitters stood on the heart side of the plate.
 Brawny and Fast
 Players frequently shifted from the right hand side of the platter to the left believing that this style was their only chance to lead.
 The last year that the great Honus led the National leaguers was 1911. Since then the swat leadership has been monopollzed by left-hand hitters. Rogers has broken their long run. The brilliant Cardinal is a brawny lit- tle fellow He stands feet 11ia inches tall and weighs around 1S5. Ifs dash in going down offsets the extra stride right-hand hitters have 10 take.
