Greenway, Girand and Associates
 Going Ahead With Diamond Greek
 Plans In Spite of Federal Delay

Although slammed in the jaw by Secretary Fall, poked in the nose by Secretary Hoover and jabbed in the solar plexus by other federal officials the Diamond Creek project is 'still on it's feet and going strong" according to Gen. John c. Greenway, one of James B. Girand's accosiates in plans for the big power project on the Col orado River. Girand's fight for fed eral license that will enable him to go ahead with the construction of a 200,- 900 horsepower dam will be contin- ued in spite of the opposition to the license voiced by officials in Washing ton. according to Girand and his as- sociates.
 "The one cheering thing about the Diamond Creek project said General Greenway yesterday, lis that it is get ting the support of Arizona, the state that is most entitled to benefit from the development of the COloGado Riv- CT. Arizona needs cheap power and we propose that Arizona shall get it just as soon as MT. Girand's applica- tion for license is approved.
 "It is difficult to understand why the Diamond Creek license is held up in Washington. We are not asking

MANY TO TAKE PART IN FIRST
 AQUATIC MEET.
Seven Numbers Are Arranged For Swimming Contest at
 Warren Pool Tomorrow

With entries for the various events coming in most promisingly, indica- tions are that the swimming meet to be held at the Warren pool tomorrow will be a success in every respect. And, as the lists will not be closed un- til 30 minutes before the first race gets underway, it goes without saying that the majority of the crowd will be contesting, instead of acting as spec tators
 In all, seven numbers will compose the program. as follows: 30 yards dash for seniors, 100 yds., seniors; 50 yds., juniors; 90 yds., girls. 30 yds., boys under 12 and 30 yds.. boys under 10, all to be conducted under choice stroke rules, and 50 yds., breast stroke. Every event will be free for-all.
 The new diving board may be in place by getaway hour and if it is, a diving exhibition will be included. In addition, Swimming Instructor Nat Kaufman will exhibit the various swimming strokes recognized by the Amateur Athletic Union and the under water plunge for distance.
 Among the entries received up to yesterday were those of Jack Landrum Tony Caretto, Joe Maddern, Herbert Detloff, Ray Foster, A. R. Mattson Mark Mediovich, J. Richardson, James iKenney. F. Sleeman, Harry Chain, Earl Reeves. Leo Medigovich, John Kennedy. Joseph Joyner, Fred Cooper, Walter Knox, James Grasham, Leslie Shell and George Martin.
 Sundays program will be the first of a series scheduled by Kaufman to extend until the swimming season is brought to an end. The eliminating meet has not decided upon as yet, but it is thought that it will be in the form of a dual match with the team from the Douglas pool.

WHITE CITY IS MURDER SCENE;
 NEGRO KILLED
Notorious Resort Near Fort Huachuca Adds One More
 Staying to Long List

Another quarrel of many possible whyfores took a life as it's aftermath Thursday night at White City, that infamous resort nthe edge of the Fort Huachuca Military Reservation, when Ora Harris shot to death an other negro named Walter Patterson.
 According to Sheriff J. k. Hood, who was called to the scene yesterday morning at 8 o'clock, the two had quarreled early in the evening. The Harris woman, after the SQuabble, followed Patterson from house to house. As he entered one house, she shot at him through the screen door the bullet striking the victim in the neck. He whirled about and the sec ond shot took effect in his right arm. As he turned in the opposite direc- tion another bullet crashed through his left arm. At this point he at tempted to retreat through the rear of the house, but bullet in the back checked his flight. As he lay on the floor, mortally wounded. three more shots were fired by the assailant. Al together the body of Patterson con tained four bullet wounds.
 The verdict of the coroner's jury which conducted an inquest over the remains of Patterson was to the eff feet that he met his death from gun shot wounds at the hands of Ora Har- | ris.
 The woman is now lodged in the county jail, and her preliminarly hear ! ing will be conducted next Tuesday afternoon at 1 o'clock, before Judge Hogue, at Turner.
 The killing of Patterson marks an- other episode in the thrilling play of life as enacted at White City. 1 For years the resort has been a thorn in the side of both county and military authorities, and with start ling consistency, murder is enacted at the place. Time and again it has
 been 'raided, the "flock" and hangers
 on jailed and driven from the country. but always there is another aggrega- | tion ready to step in and reopen the alkali Monte Carlo, which is ready for
 business before the tracks of the for mer inhabitants grow cold.

for power monopoly, we have shown that the project would not interfere with any others that have been pro posed, we do not want to take one drop of water from the river. All we plan is to spend $36,000, ,000 on the con struction of a dam that will furnish Arizona, first of all, with power at approximately one-half the present cost. The Diamond Creek project would pay taxes to Arizona and the federal government and would be sub ject to state and federal regulation.
 "The high cost of power is holding back the progress of the state We have the raw materials here to justify the establishment of big maufactur- ing ceuters in Arizona, but factories cannot be operated unless cheap pow CT is available. Every industry in the state would benefit and expand were cheap power available. We do not know when the Diamond Creek li- cense will be granted but we are con fident it will eventually be approved. MT. Grand has complied with every requirement. for nine years; there has been and can be no reason advanced why he should not be grantedNthe li- c6nSe."

Fire Department Has Difficulty in
 Running Down Fire

An electric iron connection, blow ing out last night, called Truck of the local fire department to the home of John Andrich on Chihuahua Hill. A still alarm was turned in at 7:10, but on reaching the scene, all sem blance of flame had disappeared. Andrich's daughter was using the iron in the kitchen at the time and in turning on the current, a blowout occurred, creating considerable smoke and stench of burned rubber from the insulation, but that was the ex- tent of the damage caused.
 It is requested by the acting fire chief that the location of the fire be designated as nearly as possible when alarms are sent in in this manner. Last night the alarm came in from box IA, considerable distance from the actual scene, thus making an unnecessarily long run. It is pointed out that much time will be saved if the apparatus is able to make a direct run to the scene, in stead of having to reach it only after a roundabout course.

In the plans plots of ground, to be utilized for baseball, tennis, and other recreation, were incor- porated and in the chart display ed by City Engineer HaIIeck a very illuminating conception of the entire project was forthcom- ing. The pool will be built close to the road near the subway and will be 100 feet in length and in width, 40 feet on one end and 30 on the other. The bottom will be inclined, thus allowing adults to use the pool as we'll as children. To the northwest of it will be the baseball diamond to be built so that it can also be used for foot ball eridiron, and above that will be the tennis courts. The remain der of the available ground will be fitted out as children's recre- ational area and playground ap- paratus will be installed.

A feature upon which much stress was placed is that the citi- zens of Bisbee and not the city of Bisbee have undertaken to build the. pool, by their own subscrip- tions. Other high lights of the meeting were the adoption of mo- tons whereby all individual com mittees will functioh separately from the general board, that meetings will be held weekly and that nine members of the board will suffice for a quorum.
