ROCK WRITING
DISCOVERED.
IN NEVADA
Hope to Find There Under
ground City-caIIed Cradle
of Civilization
BY w. H. BUNTIN,
International News Service.

LEHMAN CAVE, Nevada, Aug.
1S.-The theory that Nevada was
the cradle Of civilization is expected
to be advanced II excavations being
made near here by Doctor Benjamin
F. Schappelle and Doctor Peter
Frandsen, of the University of Me-
vada, in two caverns. lined with
hieroglyphics unearth an under.
ground city which preliminary dis
coveries indicate existed here ages
ago.
The excavations in debris-filled
caverns to date have unearthed rock
writing on the lime formation which
resemble both the Aztec and
Egyptian photographs. Some Of the
photographs are covered by, great
lime stalactites which denote age.
Doctor Schappelle declared today
the discovery may be considered one
Of the most important Of recent
time. Artifacts found by him es.
tablish the pottery line 900 miles
north Of that determined by archae-
logists heretofore. A figurine of
gouged stone shows the bullying
eyes and head of an idol which,
according to the archaelogiSt Is un-
deniably Aztec in origin. Hero
glyphics already uncovered show
that the extinct race which made
them were sun worshipers as were
the Toltecs Of Mexico and the
Mayas of Central America.
Just across the narrow canyon
from the caverns, high up on the
mountainside, is the entrance to an
underground river. The river is
about ninety feet below the leval
of surrounding surface streams and
flows toward the new caverns which
are also in line with Lehman Cave.
The air in the underground chan
mel is pure and fresh, and 1t is
thought that when excavations
across the canyon are complete an
underground city, with river flow
ing through the center of it, will
be found.

WILL COLOMBO
ON MEXICAN
LAND
$50 italian immigrants Land
in SinaIoa to Settle
Down
BY international News Service.

NOGALES, Ariz., Aug. 13.-''More
than $50 italian immigrants recent
ly landed in Sinaloa, Mexico, where
they will settle on lands already
provided for them In the vicinity Of
the city Of Culican, one OF the most
prosperous farming areas on the
entire west coast of Mexico, land
noted for it's fertility and produc-
ton.
It is generally believed that this
group of Italian immigrant farm
ers constitutes the vanguard of
many more to follow, as high Of.
ficials of the Southern Pacific
Company recently visited the States
Of Sonora, Sinaloa and Nayarit In
quest of lands with the object in
mind of colonization. In this party
OF officials were foreign represen.
tatives of the company from
France, England, Germany, and
Italy, and 1t is stated that the re-
suit Of their trip was favorable to
the colonization scheme.
At the time of this visit and the
return Of the railway officials they
were high in their praise Of the
lands selected for the colonization
and free in their statements that
the trip was made to consider the
advisability of settling Italian i'm.
migrants near Culican.

LONDON, Aug. 13.-Prob-
ably the most unpopular man
with the school children in the
district Of Manchester, Eng
land, is Doctor H. c. Mulhol-
land, medical officer for the
schools, who recently published
the suggestion that the health
Of the pupils would be better
if vacations were abolished.
He says that he has frequent
" found that after the holi-
days the children lost weight,
which was due in many i'm
stances to unwise feeding and
insufficient rest. Moreover, he
claims, the incidences of
measles, whooping cough and
chickenpox was worse in the
period following vacations be-
cause the control Of infection
was easier when the schools
were open.

I'D YOU ever stop to think
I'D bow IL Is possible for The
IL Times to print pictures of
world news events so soon after they
happen?
Obtaining news pictures Is as
highly organized a business and
that OF obtaining news. The Times
obtains most Of it's pictures of world
events through the Newspaper En-
terpriSe Association.
Covers World
This organization through it's va.
rious offices and representatives COW
ers the world. AS soon as a picture
of general interest is taken 1t is
rushed to The Times and other news
papers served by this organization
Usually the picture is sent to the
N. +. A. office in Cleveland or New
York, where it is made into cut and
a natrix, or paper mold, made of
the cut. This matrix is then mailed
special delivery 10 The Times and
perfect reproduction OF the cut made
by pouring molten metal over the
mold.
Getting Fight Pictures
Sometimes there Is great rivalry
between newspapers to be the first to
print pictures. The Times was the
first to print the pictures OF the
Dempsey GEhbons fight In Shelby,
Mont These pictures were brought
from the fight by airplene. The
first plane became lost In a storm
and was forced to make a landing.
The pictures were relayed to another
plane, and finally after a battle with
the elements they reached Chicago.
In Chicago a representative Of
The Times was waiting to rush the
pictures to indianapolis. This Is
just one example Of the efforts made
to obtain pictures quickly.
Not infrequently men risk their
lives TO obtain or deliver pictures for
tho readers Of The Times and other
papers.

ANOTHER BIG STILL TAKEN
AT PHOENIX-SEVEN PINCHED

Seven men were placed in the Mari
copa county Jail, two stills, each of
rs gallons capacity, were seized and
$500 gallons of mash and more than
ten gallons Of liquor were seized in
two raids by federal prohibition offic-
ers Monday, according to report to
NJ. E. Cassidy, federal prohibition en-
forcement director for Arizona.
The captures climaxed activities
which, during the past 10 days, have
resulted in the seizure of five stills,
an aggregate of more than $500 gal.
Ions Of whiskey and 10 arrests. The
activities have reduced by more than
100 gallons day the flow OF boot
leg in Arizona, Mr.. Cassidy estimates.
One of the stills captured was found
at 1923 West Maricopa street, in the
southern part Of the city. Two thou
sand gallons of the mash were seized
there and one arrest was made.
The other was found during the af-
ternoon in cave half mile north

EDWARDS GIVEN FOUR
YEARS FOR MANSLAUGHTER

Andrew Edwards, recently convicted
in superior court of manslaughter IN
connection with the death of Harold
Mowrey, shot to death last November
at Sentinel, Arizona, was sentenced
by Superior Judge NJ. T. Phelps to
serve a term of not less than one nor
more than four years in the state
penitentiary at Florence.
Sentence was pronounced after
Judge Phelps had successfully denied
motions for a new trial and in arrest
of judgment, filed by Herman Lew
kowitz, Edwards attorney. In pass
ing sentence Judge Phelps declared
his belief that Edwards was not
prompted. by murderous or vindictive
spirit in the shooting of Mowrey, but
that the act was the result of iH-ten-
per and an inflamed spirit.
Edwards, a Southern Pacific rail-
road brakeman, was charged with
Mowrey's murder after a coroners
jury at Sentinel had fixed on him re-
sponsibility for the 20-year-old youths
death. Mowrey, a son of ]. H. Now
rey of Childress, Texas, was riding
on a Southern Pacific freight train
from Yuma east on November 20 and
was shot during an alteration after
he had been ordered to leave the train
by members of the train crew.

GOOD ROADS
MEETING AT PRESCOTT

At the request of the Yavapai coun-
ty chamber of commerce, President
Norris has postponed the annual meet
ing Of the Arizona Good Roads asso-
citation until the 18th, 18th and 14th
of June.
The change has been made in what
is believed to be the best interest of
all CONCERNED. Undoubtedly it would
work hardship on many at this time
of year to attend the meeting in Pres
cott when road conditions for those
who would want to make the trip by
motor would not be as good. The
Prescott Ashfork highway will not be
entirely finished the last of this
month, and the early summer climate
Of the Mile High city is much finer
than at the present time.
All Prescott organizations assure us
that they will be able to give US a
program that will exceed any past
good roads convention held in the
state. Trips of inspection over the
Prescott highway, the Old
Trails highway, Jerome and Clarlzdale
highway. Side trips to the Grand
Canyon, if you wish, and Prescott's
usual hospitality while in the city.
The business sessions viii be held in
the evenings. Make your plans now
to attend this important convention.
Yours for better roads,
T. G.. NORRIS, President.

DOUGLAS DRIVER WINS
5O-MILE RACING CLASSIC

Arthur Hollister, Douglas boy, driv-
ing a car he rebuilt himself, won the
50-nnile Arizona classic at Douglas
last Saturday, easily beating larger
cars. His time for the so miles, IN
cluding stop for tire trouble, was
55.5 LIS.
John C. Allen of Jerome, notwith-
standing a badly-sprung front axle re-
ceived when his car slowed on a turn
in the 36th lap, stuck to the race and
romped over the line in second place
with his front tires in ribbons. Allen
was cheered by the crowd as he passed
the grandstand, lap after lap, his
badly bent front wheels flinging
spurts of dust that covered car and
driver like blanket.
Goldtrap of Phoenix got a poor
start and for the first few laps his
engine missed badly, but he finally
settled down to a steady gait, which,
however, did not carry him farther
than third place.
Koerner of Derning, N. NJ, who won
the 25-nile race the day before in a
walk, burned out connecting rod in
the 18th lap, the rod going through
the crankcase and putting him out OF
the race.
Baker of Douglas broke his clutch
in the first lap and dropped out.
Owens of Phoenix went into the
pits in the 38th lap with tire trou-
Bile and did not re-enter the race.
Reid of Phoenix did not have suf-
ficient speed to compete with the 9TH
er cars and at the conclusion of the
race had made Al laps.
There were seven entries. The
| prizes were: First, $3.50; second, $3.50;
and third, $3.50.
It is estimated that over 5000 per-
| sons witnessed the event.

BIGGEST STILL is FOUND
IN MOUNTAINS NEAR CAPITAL

Situated in a canyon, walls Of which
lowered up more than 200 feet, and
so inaccessible that heavy loads could
be transported in and out only by
burro, the largest still seized in many
months was found Is miles northwest
of Litchfield by prohibition officers
and deputies sheriff.
With the still, which was of more
than 100 gallons capacity, the officers
seized more than 400 gallons of mash
contained in half buried barrels, and
a quantity of partially distilled liquor.
Elaborate precautions intended to
mislead raiding parties, had been
taken by still owners. Although no
arrests have been made, Prohibition
Director Cassidy said sufficient evi-
dence has been gathered to Justify
filing of charges in the case in the
next two or three days.
