TOURIST TRAVEL TURNING
SOUTHWARK, IS REPORT

Daily reports of road conditions
over Arizona as received at the head
quarters of the Autofhobil eclub of
Arizona show a general return to nor
NAL all over the state, as the damage
done by recent heavy rains is re-
paired.
Motor vehicle traffic is increasing
with the advent of more automobile
tourist visitors into the state. This is
brought about by the more northern
passes through the great continental
divide becoming impossible from
heavy SHOWS.
The east bound translate motor
traffic shows remarkable features,
principal one being the large prepon-
derance of California license plates on
cars carrying camp equipage. This
makes the east bound traffic resemble
an exodus from the Bear state.
Another noticeable feature in the
trans-state automobile traffic is the
increased number of really high class
automobiles using the highways of
Arizona. Many of these travellers call
at the office fthe Automobile club
seeking roan information that will

while within the state. The Automo-
bile club is doing much to reach this
class Of visitors with information
about scenic Arizona before they start
on their journey to Pacific coast
points, believing that more knowledge
spread in the east concerning scenic
Arizona and the excellent roads lead
ing to points of interest will result in
this traffic spreading out over the
state and creating profitable business.
The Automobile club routing de-
partment furnished road information
to many hunting parties going into
the northern part of the state for big
game and will be glad to receive first
handed information from guides and
hunting lodges catering to sportsmen.

sam Crane, baseball writer. who

the making.

what names he would have chosen
to perpetuate In his list Of base
ball immortals VIII never be known.
But one thing is certain. AZ his
all-time, all-baseball manager, Sam
would have considered only one man.
That is John J. McGraw.
And in his selection Of all.time
pitchers two names would have
been certain to appear. One is
Amos Rusie, the man Sam ckarac-
terized as 'stl1e greatest speed bah
pitcher of them all. /" And another
is Christy Mathewson. These two
were certain selections. For they
represented to Sam Crane all that
was perfection IN pitching great
ness.
And they reciprocated that feel
ing. For If these two, or John j.
McGraw. suddenly would be called
upon to name the greatest all-Amer-
lean, all-time' baseball writer they
would think Of only one man. That
man would be sam Crane.

NEW YORK, July 4.-James
Campbell, a famous Wednesday
player and Scottish soccer interna-

left halfback position for his new
club for more than two years with
out q single break, missing his
first match when playing for Scot.
land against England on April 5,
1915.
It was in 1916 that Campbell
was hailed as one of the greatest
left halfbacks in the United King
dom, when critics declared that he
went about his work with more
larry grace than did the famous
'Nudger' Needham." For a long
time Campbell's partners were Tom
Brittleton and Bob McSkimming,
both of whom are still on the
active list. Last season Brittleton,
now more than forty-five, assisted
