FLAGSTAFF BOWLERS NOW
HAVE LEAD ON PRESCOTT

Well, it's not so often a team gets
off to a bad start in a contest, scor-
ing away behind, and then pulls out
into the lead But that's what the
Flagstaff Lame Duck bowlers have
done in their telephone contest with
Prescott.
In the two first three-game contests
Prescott won, obtaining heavy lead.
But Flagstaff came to life last Friday
night and won by margin of 262
pins, which makes US 81 pins ahead
in the total score since the tourney
began.
Here are the Flagstaff scores for
the last three games as furnished by

of the timber on the Mormon lake
watershed would probably mean the
bottling up of two or three billion
feet of timber farther south, which
should logically be milled at Mormon
lake. The very life of Flagstaff de-
pends upon this industry. Coconino
county's share of the timber receipts
alone will mount into the millions
during the next so years.
"The primary purpose of the ma
tional forests is the growing and
marketing of trees. Only conservative
cutting is allowed on the national for
ests of Arizona. In fact the young
trees will be benefited by the re-
moval of the mature timber, and will,
in few years, constitute much more
beautiful stand and viii be much
thriftier than the original virgin for
est, provided every citizen will do his
share to prevent fires.
"We believe that the interests of
the people of Arizona as a whole will
be best served if Mormon lake and the
surrounding country remain under
the Jurisdiction of the forest service.
Ample provision Is being made to pro-
tect recreational interests. Millions of
feet of timber have been reserved
around the main camping places, and
a strip will be reserved along the
entire lake shore insofar as the fed
eral holdings are concerned. Under
forest service regulations it is posi-
