For this purpose a derrick Is used

COOKE WINS FROM YOUNG
 DOWNEY IN SIX ROUNDS

Local lovers of the manly art en- loved a fast six round boxing match between Walter Cooke and Young Downey, here last Friday night. The contestants were quite evenly vmatched but it was generally conced- ed that Cooke had the best of it thru out the six rounds Two prelimin- aries furnished great deal of amuse- ment for the crowd.
 The first of the two preliminaries was announced as being between Pon- cho Villa and Gen. Obregon. The participants were both under sixteen years of age but put up very lively bout. The judges called the match a draw.
 The second preliminary which also resulted in a draw was staged between Jack Johnson now portering incog. at the Grand Canyon Hotel and Carpen- tier now crossing the continent under the cognomen of Kid Groven. Jack weighed 1855 and Groven 105. Grow en had experience to make up what he lacked in weight. While the judges declared the bout draw, the general opinion seemed to be that Groven's experience more than made up for what he lacked in weight and gave him little the best of 1t.
 The six rounds between Downey and Cooke were full of interest from start to finish. Downey packs a good wallop as also does Cooke. Cooke seemed to be little longer in the arms and succeeded in keeping of most of Downey's blows. Downey, on the other hand was quite vulner- able to blows from the left and seem ed unable to ward off Cooke's right hand kidney punch. Downey suffer ed considerable punishment while Cooke came thru with hardly a scratch outside of a bloody nose, al tho he was hit several times. The judges gave the decision to Cooke.
 Young Downey is from Winslow and is now working on the water ser vice here. Cooke is a brakeman on the Grand Canyon run and played on the Williams Ball Team last summer.
 The attendance at the fight was fairly good. All present seemed pleased with the matches and it is predicted that another bout would draw much more strongly. It is pos sible that match may be arranged soon between Cooke and boxing champion from Ash Fork.

SKyLIGHT BANDIT LEAVES
 WAKE ACROSS STATE

The "Skylight" bandit who replen- ished his stock from the Rabbit store in Williams a week ago, paid similar visits to other towns in the state, according to advices from the offices of the county sheriff and county attorney. The first robbery of this nature appears to have taken place at Yuma The trail leads thru the state with stops at Phoenix, Williams, Winslow and other points. In each case the robbery was made in the same manner as in Williams and with lucrative results for the robber in every case.
 Deputy Sheriff Cy Campbell found q suit of clothes and a suit case left by the robber in Williams. The suit was an old one and was exchanged for one of the best that the stock at Babbitts could supply. It showed the robber to be of small stature. In addition to the suit of clothes left be- hind was a necktie and few other articles that bore the mark of a store in Yuma. t@e-'

LIVESTOCK AND RANGE REPORT

That abundant sunshine and ab- sence of stormy weather has done much to maintain range stock in a fair to good condition is the substance of telegraphic information from re- porters in Arizona and western New Mexico to the weather bureau office in Phoenix. No precipitation has fal- len during the week and winter ran ges are entirely free from snow Storms earlier in the month have inn proved ranges to some extent and stock water appears to be adequate Tn most sections. The weather Tn the south continued to be mild and the reporter at Douglas states that the range shows green in protected spots. Desert and valley ranges are improv= ing under the influence of the mild daytime temperatures.
 Crop Progress in Arizona
 With maximum temperatures aver aging slightly above 72 degrees and 100 per cent of the possible sunshine the past week in southern valleys was very favorable to all forms of ag- ricultural activity. While the clear nlRnLS d110CISo AdPlo AoNAe~SAOAA O- the days heat resulting in cool to frosty morning temperatures, little damage has resulted.

Hardly matured suffi- ciently before caught by the freeze of November 4th-5th, short staple bolls are not opening as might be ex- pected under normal conditions. Rath- CT than delay longer, growers are now 1 pulling these unopened bolls which, when specially ginned, produce mark etable lint.

CURETOK MEETS WITH SCHOOL EXECUTIVES

Prof. T. H. CureCOn Ie1C "eohes- day to attend the meeting of Arizona High School Executives, which is be- ing held in Globe. All superinten- dents and principles of High Schools within the state are expected to be present. The main topic for discus sion by the conference is that of pro posed changes in the High School course of study for Arizona.
 At the Teachers Association meet ing held in Phoenix during Thanks giving week, it was urged that stud ies of citizenship such as civics, econ omics and social science, should re- place Latin in the course of study Latin has been rapidly losing place in the schools of the state and of the nation for the past twenty years until now there is scarcely any de- mand for it. As an elective study in the course it is left unchosen in near fy all schools. It was further urged at the Phoenix conference that the high school course be arranged to train pupils for citizenship rather than merely prepare them to enter college. At the Globe conference a strong effort will be made to change the course of study accordingly. O : No doubt the patrons of the Will jams schools will be interested in reading the studies and credits offer ed in the Williams High School. These appear below: : Credits Given in Williams High
