Senator Townsend who drafted the Townsend bill for federal aid for high way construction.

 The annual convention of the Bankhead Highway association was held at the same time and place, and your president was instructed to use every effort to bring the next con vention to Arizona. Your president was made chairman of the Arizona delegation, and the Hon. Fred Sutter of Bisbee was called upon to make the speech presenting Arizona's claims for the next meeting.
 As you no doubt know our efforts were successful.
 Those present from Arizona were Sid Smyth, county engineer, Cochise county, Hon. Stanley Kilt of Tucson: Tucson; Hon. J. c. Heating of Flor ence; John Montgomery. sheriff; Harry Vernon, county engineer, Mar icopa county, and Harry Welch, sec retary of the chamber of commerce at Phoenix.
 An invitation is extended to every good roads worker and citizen in Arizona to join in making the 1929 conventions of the United States GO0u flOddS association and the Bankhead Highway association the biggest and best ever
 There never was a time when united effort and close cooperation between all sections in Arizona was so essential as at this time. It will be of great advantage to all sections of the stae to bring here good roads enthusiasts from all parts of the country.
 T ask you as real citizens of Ari- zona to help make the movement one woich.will benefit every highway across the state. There is ample room and opportunity for several lines of national highways and every road will help every section Get in and work hard for roads in Arizona. Join in putting Arizona on the good roads map of the United States of America.
 We want to hear rom you helping to build up the Arizona Good Roads association so that it can do it's share with you to make the national road conventions successful in every way"

 COMPANY PLAYING
 AT RAMONA 1HEATER

Eccentric, acrobatie, soft-shoe danclng such as Phoenix seldom sees was presented at the Ramona thea ter last night by Bob Greer, principle comedian with Brandon Brothers, Pioneer Girls, which opened an in definite engagement yesterday after noon- The diminutive fun maker with ms grotesque makeup found immediate favor with the hundreds of people who filled the theater at three performances. Sharing much Of the applause with him was a eapable company.
 Plot doesn't count for much in the general run of modern musical come dies and there wasn't much plot to connt in the initial offering of the Pioneer Girls But there was suffi- cient story to keep interest sustained and to serve as the basis for some lively fun.
 But the average audience demands that girls. music and costuming make up for any lack of plot All three were amply provided by the manage ment of the new organization to Phoenix. B. I. Nelson attracted at tention with his remarkable tenor voice before the opening ensemble number was well under way. Cal West was repeatedly recalled to yodel few more yOdelS or q distinctly novel yodeling song.

WATSON SAYS HE GAN CLIMB RAMP IN HIGH SPEED

Why waste your time climbing little bit of a concrete ramp about fifty feet long and ten per cent grade when there is real test out heraa~sn the Apache Trail waiting for you to demonstrate the hill climbing abiIi- ties of your car2'' said Grady Watson last night upon reading that the ramp in the Metropolitan Garage was con- sidered blood-curdling test for any high powered car
 It has come to my attention that there Is right smart discussion go- ing on as to various and divers cars ability to climb that ramp on high gear from standing start. The statement has been made by a local distributor that no car can make this little grade on high gear with it's standard gear ratio-"
 Well, just to show these enter prising gents that we are not afraid of the car we sell, we will bet any amount up to and including s5,0Q0 that we can take the Paige Six-66 down there and start from a standing start on high gear, give here the gun and go over the top at 20 miles per hour We will even bet this amount that we can take our little car and go over at 10 miles per hour- l fig ure that here is a chance for tbe Sufe-IHlHg sports or tnlS burg 10 make little money. and we will be in our offices all day Tuesday to re- ceive bets. When they are all in we will go down and prove that we are entitled to the shekeis."
 The ramp in question, of which our friend Grady speaks. is located in the Metropolitan garage and runs from the basement up to the ground floor. It is q stiff pull, there is no doubt of it. Grady figures that if a man thinks he has real hill- climb ing bus he can soon prove it out on Fish Creek hill which the Paige climbed seven times ond high gear from standing start In high, and in seven minutes time at that
