BRUSH FIRE STARTER
 SHOULD SEND NOTICE
Otherwise May Provide Unneces. sary Exercise for Fire Fighters
 of the Service
From Satnrdav,s Dailvl

Request is being made by the Prescott forest service office that anyone starting brush fires notify the office before doing so. This is the effect of fire alarm sent into the forest service office here yester- day.
 Robert Munro, assistant Prescott forest supervisor, was called out to the Groom Creek district at about 10 o'clock yesterday morning by an excited report of fire. He dashed out on his three-wheeled motor car, only to find when he arrived at the scene of the conTlagration that someone had been burning brush.
 While some parts of the forest ranges are dry enough to make a forest fire a real danger at this time, with considerable danger of spreading and causing large damage, Munro said yesterday no real danger yet exists around the Prescott dis trict.
 Persons burning brush on the for est, however, are requested to notify the department here, and save the local office considerable trouble in running up false alarms.

HOW CHAUTAUQUA
 WILL BE REPLACED
Grom Saturdays Daily) Year Round Series of Entertain ments Backed by Chautauqua
 Committee

No chautauqua. will be held in Prescott this year, but in its place there will be held during the year, entertainments of various kinds. This plan, it is believed, will meet the requirements Of the public more generally than the chautauqua. Thc management of the Ells theater will endeavor to bring as many special attractions as the theater-going pub lie will show that they patronize. This understanding has been reach ed with the chautauqua committee of the chamber Of commerce, to- gethcr with the management of the theater.
 It is not the policy of the theater management to rent the thcater for chautauquas. This privilege has been granted to the chautauqua committee by the management of the theater in years past, but it has been deemed advisable by the man agement to cater the year-round to special attractions rather than to

BADGERS, DEFEATED 25-23 YET HAVE CHANCE AT TITLE; TODAY
 WILL TELL STORY IF QUINTET5
From Saturdays Dailyl

TUCSON. Feb. 25.-Slipping thru the Prescott defense at almost the last minute of play, Globe High schools basketball team tonight downed the northern Arizona cham pions g to g. Although Prescott opened the last half with a one point lead. and then saw Globe change the margin to five in their own favor when there remained but five minutes of play, the Yavapai warriors tied the score as the min ute hand approached the time limit. But big. gloomy fate intervened and the final basket of what was regarded as the hardest fought drib- bling game ever fought here, was made by Globe.
 Handicapped by the last minute shit in their lineup, caused by the injury Of Southworth in the Flag staff tournament where Prescott won her northern title, the Badgers played with all the heart in them and at times did better than they knew how. Poe Bradley and Heap scintillated for the northerners and it was due to their fine work that the score against them was not greater.
 Poe, the Badger regular forward, put five field goals through the ring while Thompson, the southpaw who replaced Southworth in the Napier scoring department, did two. Five free throws were chalked up for Poe Bradley, Prescott guard, made the only other scores for the visitors, two field goals
 The game was hard fought from the beginning. Prescott started a lead and maintained it throughout the first section. which ended l3 to F in their favor.
 Globe. with a fine team. tonight stands with Gilbert. leading Prescott and Bisbee for the state champion ship. but Prcscott's one tc four chance to take home the coveted trophy is still open. By winning over both Gilbert and Bisbee to- morrow, provided Globe drops a game, Prescott will yet be able to drop the qualifying northern from her title. In case Globe also wins, however, the tournament here will be tied between the two teams.
 Gilbert, dark horses of the very most brunei sort, triumphed over the Bisbee team by the scant margin of % to ? in tonight's play Both these teams deserve credit for the hard fought race they made for the final tally.
 John Napier, coach of the BaIg- CTS, said tonight that he attributed his first defeat of the 1920-21 season by an Arizona high school to the enforced shit in his forward of iensive and that had Southworth been in the dispute, he felt he would have carried off the first honorS
 The Winslow girls who brought the northern Arizona championship down to the university week tourna- ment, were eliminated today.
