TEMPE OFFICIALS
TOPUT STOP To THE
SPEEDING MENACE

IEMPE, June Zo--It Will pC IiS
policy Of the new town marshal,
backed by the city council, to put a
stop to the speeding through the
streets of Tempe. This practice has
been growing worse and it has
reached the point where it is dam
gerous for those who try to- observe
the rules to be in the streets at cer-
tain times of the night Drivers are
without lights, on the wrong side of
the street, going at 80 to 40 miles an
hour and often driving with one
hand. Many residents living on the
highway are disturbed at night by
the open muffler and the fearful pace
of the auto.
Tempe Cow Testing Association
The Tempe Cow Testing associa-
ton becomes the Maricopa County
Cow Testing association. Six hum
dred COWS are signed up in this asso-
citation. An important meeting was
held in Phoenix Thursday. The fol-
lowing officers were elected: Presi-
dent. NJ. Gottschalk; vice president
William Mcneil; secretary treasurer,
A. u. Krebs. C.. n. Ents was selected
as official tester.
At Flagstaff
Miss Bonnie Biehl is at the Flag
staff Normal for the summer. Miss
Biehl is another Tempe girl to join
the summer colony at Flagstaff
Fully a dozen teachers from this place
are attending the Flagstaff school
this year. Miss Hermenia Biehl has
secured position with Mr.. Woolf and
will remain in Tempe for the sum-
mer.
Cotton Selling
The local cotton supply is gradually
being reduced. Local buyers are ac-
tive and alert TO the buying oppor-
tunities. The top price of 36 cents
looks good to those who have waited
almost three years to get something
out of their heavy investment. Ev-
eryone in Tempe interested in cotton
breathes easier when he sees a load
of cotton leaving Tempe. The own
ers would like to clear the yards be-
fore the new crop begins to come in.
Lunch for Reserves
Some of the Tempe ex-service men
attended the luncheon and heard the
address of Maj. William McCleve at
the Adams hotel yesterday. Major
McCleve is here to visit, inspect and
ex-service men who are re-
serves.
OF Interest to All
There will be a luncheon at the
Hotel Adams next wednesday noon,
where the Arizona side of the Colo
rado river problem will be discussed
and representative citizens of Tempe
who are interested in this very i'm
portant matter are invited to be pres
ent at this meeting. The Colorado
river is the biggest thing in our flu
ture history and every one in the
state should be interested.
Baseball at Mesa
The Tempe baseball players, not
the team. will play the Caseys again
next Sunday in Mesa. The Caseys
we're so badly defeated last Sunday
by the Tempe players by having a
little help from Mesa players that
they hope to redeem themselves by
game next Sunday. 1t is to be re-
gretted that Tempe cannot play as a
team, but this combination with
Mesa is better than no play at all.
Phone in the News
Call 90 when you know of any news
that should go in the Tempe column.
It is not easy to find interesting facts
these days when schools are closed,
various organizations adjourned for
the summer and so many of our
leading citizens away, and yet things
do happen. Occa sionally some one
wants to know why such and such an
event did not get some mention i'll the
paper. The obvious reason is that
that person did not tell the corre-
spondent about it. The Republican
S anxious to get all interesting hap
penings properly reported. You can
help.
