PROPOSED
FOR SCHOOL BOARD
Engineer Commissioner KelI.
er Says Full Time Should
Be Given Cause.

Discussing the proposed reorgani-
zation of the school system, Engineer
Commissioner Keller suggested new
angle today when he voiced the belief
that the board of education should be
a body of paid experts who could de-
vote all of their time to school work.
Col. Keller said board Of education
under the system in operation in
Washington is composed Of well
meaning public spirited citizens, but
he pointed out that they are only
called upon to devote a small portion
of their time to the transaction of
school affairs.
The Engineer Commissioner believes
it is as unwise to have school
board under the present arrangement
as it would be to have District Com
missioners who would devote only a
part of their time to the handling of
municipal problems.
View as to Estimates.
Col. Keller, like his colleagues on
the board of Commissioners, says he
does not See what is to be gained
for the schools by taking school es-
Inmates out of the hands of the Com
missioners and having the President
Instead of the judges appoint the
board of education.
He believes that the bureau of the
budget and the committees of Con-
gress will weigh the merits of school
items Just as carefully if the new
plan becomes law as they DO now
with the Commissioners going over
the school budget.
keenly interested as any other Off
cial in the development of the school
system to keep pace with the rapidly
increasing enrolment of pupils. He
said he is in hearty accord with tine
idea of having a definite program Tor
enlargement of the school system ana
of getting the appropriations to carry
the plan into effect.
Items Sent to Congress.
Commissioner Rudolph pointed out
that while the Commissioners go over
the estimates of the schol board, they
always submit to Congress simulta-
neousIy the original items asked for
by the school authorities, SO that the
committees which make the appropri-
ations have the opportunity to judge
which should be granted.
Another District official said that
if the city collected a special tax an
nually for maintenance of schools 1t
would be feasible to have school ap-
propriations handled independently
Of the Commissioners. But with the
responsibility placed on them of levy
ing taxes and fixing the rate of tax
alton, the Commissioners feel that it
is absolutely essential that they
should have supervision over the ap-
nropriations of all District agencies.
II was further suggested at the
District building that if the proposed
reorganization of the schools is
adopted it would be just as logical
to direct the board of charities to
submit estimates for the penal in
st;futions of the city to the budget
bureau without reference to the Com
misSioners.

BIC FISH CAUGHT
BYSCOTTSDALEM MAN
At MORMON FLATS

SCOTTSDALE, April 25.-A party
of local people went to Mormon Flats
Saturday on q fishing trip and were
very successful. r. l.. Groose. vice
president of the local farm bureau,
was fortunate in catching the largest
fish ever caught by any one in this
district fishing in Arizona waters.
Using a spoon bait and trolling he
hooked large Colorado salmon and
it required one hour and 80 minutes
to land the fish. At the end of that
time the fish and man were tired out
and when the fish was finally netted
it tipped the scales at 81 pounds and
was one of the largest ever caught in
Salt River. A woman holds the
record for the largest fish ever
caught in the river and it was caught
at the same place that the one was
captured Saturday Those who be-
lieve that they should go to the coast
in order to get game fishing should
take a trip to Mormon Flats and try
their luck and they will be con-
vinced that good fishing can be had
near home. The best bait to use now
at that place is artificial minnows
for bass and salmon, and worms for
perch.
The first time that the local school
was ever represented at a valley
track meet was Saturday when Will
Miller of the high school ran the 100

George Savers, an old miner of the

was made on a ledge that appears
to be continuation of the Gunsight
ledge and only short distance west
of 1t. 1t is distant from Ajo about
II miles east. No assay figures have
been had yet, but those who have
seen samples think the ore will run
at least several hundred ounces Of
silver, in addition to the excellent
values in lead. The paystreak en-
countered by Sayers on the surface
was at first two inches in width. but
widened to about nine inches at Az
or feet. an gets better and wider
at every added foot of depth The
strike was made close to a 75 foot
shaft in which there was gold ore
all the way down. In the early days
the Gunsight was a producer of rich
silver and lead ore and returns were
had from those shipments. The main
shaft on the Gunsight is 400 feet in
depth and George Sayers has made
his home at the Gunsight mine for
several years He is an old miner
and has been very successful in for
mer years, having on two or three
occasions been wealthy from his min

that the ledge he has struck viii
