WEATHERFORD PROPOSES
HIS BOULEVARD AS BEST
ROUTE TO CITY. SPRINGS
Continued from Page One.)

Mr.. Weatherford's road are that side
roads would have to be built to haul
material for the new pipe line and
that to get by it to the city springs
it would be necessary to go clear up
over the saddle, rising to an eleva-
ton many hundred feet above the
springs and then dropping down to
them.
But it may prove on investigation
that these objections will be more than
counter-balanced. One argument in
favor of using the Weatherford route
is, of course, that if it were used 1t
might hasten the completion Of the
boulevard, which is a mighty potent
argument, because there is no question
that the completion of the boulevard
and the easy accessibility Of the 49,
000-feet-high top of the peaks to tour
lists will make Flagstaff a point OF
much greater interest with tourists.
On the other hand, a good road over
some other route to the city springs
/ might to some extent be detrimental
! to the interests Of the Weatherford
| boulevard as such a route would also
! be tremendous attraction to tourists,
affording views Of transcendent mag
nificence and beauty.
The Weatherford road to the
springs would be about 10 miles short
er than the present road and about
the same length as the proposed pipe
line road, the latter being about 15
miles.
Burns & McDonnell's report says OF
the proposed new road along the pipe
line: "A road has been constructed
along the bench occupied by the pipe
line from the weir box at the springs
down for distance of Ia miles. From
this point down to Schulz pass is dis
tance of TT miles, and there is no.
road near this portion of the pipe
line. From Schulz pass down to the
reservoirs the road roughly parallels
/ the pipe line and is never far from
it. At the upper end below the por-
tion now used as a road there are l a
miles where the bench is six to eight
feet wide and well cleared, so that
very little work would be required to
| use it as a road Of the remaining
| 6.3 miles down to Schulz pass there
are SO miles where the bench is four
to five feet wide and 2.7 miles where
] it is only two to three feet wide. For
most of the way it would appear pref
cradle to lay the new line inside the
old ones, which will require some cut
ting down of the inside slope, and the
bench would naturally be widened by
leveling out this excess material. We
believe that for purposes of transpor
tation during construction and for
j purposes of maintenance thereafter it
would be highly desirable to construct
a road along the pipeline approx
mately II feet wide with several pass
ings per mile.
1.-The excavation is largely soil with
loose rock, but some solid rock will
be encountered which will require
blasting and about half dozen short
tunnels"

Some vexation is felt as a result of
the dance given at Normal auditorium
Tuesday night, but only by those who
failed to attend and share in the gem
eral good time enjoyed by all those
who did attend. The affair was an

Winslow furnished such excellent
music that they were engaged then

given later.
Three bob-sled loads of Odd Fellows

The ''Lumberjacks" returned Sun
day night after a successful invasion
down the line The writer did not
carry his heart on his sleeve when he
predicted that Coach Payne's proteges
would scalp the Prescott girls ON their
own court. The Badgerenes had our
girls hustling all the way, but they
were equal to their tasks for they
slipped the oval through the loops at
difficult angles that was a spectacle
to behold. The score ended 10 to 9,
with Coach Payne's girls on top.
To say that it is an established rule
of Coach brakes "Lumberjacks" to
play extra periods in order to obvious
~ demonstrate to their opponents that
they are the better quintet would be
the same as making plea and pardon
for the Prescott Badgers superiority.
Not so many evenings ago it took
two extra periods before the Lumber
Jacks subdued the Mile High tossers.
This same tragedy was dealt out last
Saturday evening, but in shorter or
der. At the end of the game the
score stood 25 to 25. Referee Chris
tenson, of Winslow, called hasty
confab with the coaches and an extra
five minutes period was the result.
Our boys showed a burst of speed in
the closing minutes that literally
swept the Badgers off of their feet.
We came out on high with 27 to &c
score Camp and Udal were the big
factors, Camp making 10 out of the
q points.
Both games with the Clarkdale
ounces proved to be very uninterest-
ing. The games were played on an
outdoor tennis court, marred by a
bowling wind on one side and old Sol
shining on the end of the court. Our
girls romped home on the long end of
a % to IL count Our boys lost "a
to 20. The Lumberjacks exhibited
their usual fast game but the outdoor
handicap and breaks were all IN favor
of their more fortunate rivals.
Friday was sort of an off-day for
our tossers. The outdoor court at
Jerome had blanket of snow so for
this reason both games were cancel
led. We will, however, have an op-
portunity to view the hillside aggre
cation on February % at Flagstaff.
When the Lumberjacks bump up
against the Kingman five tonight,
they will be facing one of the strong
est combinations of basketball tossers
in the northern part of the state. The
Kingman quintet defeated our boys
last year by a close score, so il you

are in for an evening OF excitement,
better come out early. The girls take
on the Clarkdale aggregation IN a re-
turn game.
Assembly last Friday was the scene
of an especially planned entertain
ment for President and Mrs. Taylor.
Instead Of doing as we would like to
have done and listened to him speak
again, we attempted to show him what
we ourselves could do in the way of
music. The orchestra offered several
selections, which were followed by
songs given by Girls Glee club. The
program ended with an exhibit of clog
dancing by three members of the
aesthetic dancing class.
The faculty and friends of Presi-
dent and Mrs. Taylor then assembled
in the domestic science department to
partake of the hospitality of Mr.. and
Mrs. McMullen and meet these people
who did their bit for the institution
several years ago. After luncheon,
which was served a la buffet, Presi-
dent Taylor gave an interesting talk
on the early life of the Normal and
expressed his great pleasure in this
visit.
Miss Berchtold is so good at decid
ing things that she was asked to go
to Prescott to judge debate there
last Monday evening.
Miss Lintz has returned from her
home in Ohio, where she was called
suddenly, due to the illness and death
of her father
Mrs. Drake has been forced to give
up her school work for the past two
weeks on account of illness.
Miss Alberta Platz has returned
after pleasant vacation spent in
Southern California.
Another evidence of the fact that
Arizona adheres to the motto: al
ways forward, never backward" was
the dedication of the new public school
of Ashfork, at which President Nc
Mullen officiated last Friday.
The school, which formerly consist
ed of one room, was converted into a
four-roonl building with an auditor
ium. 1t also has modern equipment,
such as maple floors, heating plant,
ventilating fan and electric lights.

The Wukoki, or Group 3, was three

1t is understood that national mon
uments would cover about 40 acres
surrounding each ruin. The location
of the ruins is such as to not inter
fere with grazing and the land is
unfit for any purpose.
1t would seem that the people of
Flagstaff would be greatly pleased if
these ruins were protected by the
government Many tourists are now
visiting the Kayenta country to view
ruins there, passing these ruins which
are of equal interest.
