and cranberries, but the football
game scheduled between Normal
school and Bisbee High school was
called off because most Of the Nor

circus in the Red Cross hut al
which amusing limitations of the
freaks, ring masters, clowns, don
keys, horses and menagerie were
given.

than ordinary luck in the short
open season for deer which opened

brown bear. Holland G. Cogdell
piloted a party far up into the Mo-

of deer and turkey. Hunters who

brought back tales of good bags,
and also brought in good deeer
steaks to back up their stories.
