GRADY GAMMAGE
RESIGNS FROM
LOCAL SCHOOLS

Grady Gammage, for four years
superintendent of schools in Wins
low, last week presented his res
ignation to the school board pre-
paratory to accepting a position as
vice president of the Northern Ari-
zona Teachers college and director
of the training school department
Of the college. Mr.. Gammage's
resignation was accepted with great
regret by the board, which in an
attempt to induce Mr.. Gammage to
remain here, offered a substantial
increase in salary, however, it was
felt by the board that the superin-
tendent could hardly be persuaded
against accepting the call to a
broader and more responsible edu-
cationaI field.
Mr.. Gammage is5now teaching in
the summer session at Teachers
college, his subjects being history
and education. He spent last week
end in Winslow making final prep
arations to remove to Flagstaff,
and Sunday evening, accompanied
by Mrs. Gammage, he left for his
new home, but will make frequent
visits to Winslow during the sum-
mer
Before leaving, Mr.. Gammage
said:
II shall be in Winslow many
times during the summer, never
theless | should like to take this
occasion to give some slight ex-
preston of my regret at leaving,
and Of my appreciation of the
many kindnesses shown me by the
people here. l am deeply appre-
ciative of the spirit of cooperation,
helpfulness and good will that has
been shown by the members of the
board of trustees, the patrons of
the schools, teachers and pupils
Five of the best years of my
life have been spent in Winslow.
Some of the most valued associa-
tions I know have been formed
here. 1t is not easy to relinquish
these ties and interests! Indeed, 1
shall not relinquish them.

schols is not one altogether Of

may be, I can wish for him moth

THE METEORS HAD
THEIR OPPONENTS
SCARED TO DEATH

The Meteors didn't win over
Clarkdale Sunday, but they had the
Verde valley boys badly scared
until the eighth inning, when
Pitcher McQuiston blew up and
let in five runs, making the final
score I'll in favor of CIarkdale.
The Winslow boys took keen de-
light in knocking out Pitcher
Hickey, of Clarkdale, he who so
badly fooled them on the occasion
of Clarkdales visit to Winslow a
few weeks ago, when the Meteors
lost by an unbecoming score.
The game was fast all the way,
and it is reported that Winslow 5
infierd playing was alright. Nine
put-Outs resulted from infield
plays. Charley Hitchcock picked
off home run with man on base
in the second inning, the only
home run of the game.
The ball team, accompanied by
Sid Moore, Slim Wingfield, Joe
Kleindienst and Al Kleindienst,
made the long trip over Schnebly
hill, which beautiful drive was d
revelation in Arizona's gorgeous
scenery, even to the much-traveled
ball players, who had been on,
most all of the roads in this state.
Winslow will not have a game
next Sunday. The boys will be free
to visit and enjoy the celebration
at Flagstaff. On the following
Sundays Winslow will play the
two teams from Prescott.

What Defense Test
Means to America

Many questions have been asked
regarding the reasons for the de-
fense test to be held on Defense
day, July 4, and it is surprising to
know that a large number of citi-
zens throughout the country are
not acquainted with its purpose
and what it stands for. The fol-
lowing questions are often asked:
Question: What is Defense day?
Answer: Defense day or Muster
day is a designated time when citi-
zens of the United States and the
military personnel of the United
States are called upon to show
their patriotism, their prepared
ness, their strength in case they
should be called upon in national
emergency, and the quickness with
which they can respond to a call
and show their willingness to de-
fend their country if the need
should ever arise. 1t is also the
time when the people are given an
opportunity to learn their duties
and obligations as American citi-
zens in the common Defense" and
to know something of the tasks
every man, woman and child will
have to perform in the event of a
national emergency. 1t is a day
on which are tested certain defense
plans drawn up pursuant to the
national defense act of June, 1920.
Question: What will I gain by
participation in Muster day?
Answer: All persons participat-
