BODYBUILDING
ASSOCIATION
LOST 100000
States Venture Will Cost
That Amount, Industrial
Commission Reports

Indications are that the deficit to
the state from the activities Of the
state homebuilders' association will
total 100000, according to the re-
port Of the state industrial commits
sion for 1925, just off the press.
Although some of the assets Of
the association remain to be liqui-
dated, the report says, it is estimated
that the total amount to be realized
from them will be absorbed by ac-
trned interest charges pending final
settlement.
OF the 100000 estimated to have
been the cost Of the states venture
into the BODYBUILDING business, $780,
233.09 still is due to the Bank Of
North Dakota which advanced the
money to finance the project. This
will be paid off in about four years,
according to present estimates, since
the state tax. levy for that purpose
provides about $4,000 annually.

LAND COMMISSIONER
FIGHTS TO HOLD JOB

A Washington dispatch under date
Of July says:
A new phase of the disagreement
between the interior department and
Senator Cameron, republican, Ari-
zona, has developed in the District of
Columbia courts.
| Alleging that an illegal attempt is
being made by Secretary Work to de-
prive him of his office as register of
the land office at Phoenix, L. l.. Far
rell, a Cameron appointee, today was
given a court order requiring the in
terror secretary to show cause July
% why mandamus should not be
| issued against him.
The petition on which the order was
issued recited that Farrell was given
a recess appointment as register at
| Phoenix on June 2, 1925; that his
nomination for the place was sent to
the senate by President Coolidge on
/ December 10 and confirmed II days
/ later, but that Secretary Work has
refused to send commission for the
office to the White House for sigma
ture by the president. 1t is asked
that the secretary be required to pre-
/ pare such a commission.
Meantime, Farrell has advised
Senator Cameron by telegraph that
he has been notified from Washing
ton that upon the adjournment of
congress without his commission hav..
ing been signed he must give up the
office. He telegraphed the senator,
however, that he was standing pat"
in the face of an interior department
order to turn the job over to his as
sistant
In bringing his petition Far
rell was represented by William c.
Prentiss, who also is attorney for the
Verde Irrigation district in pending
litigation designed to compel Secre-
tary Work to extend the time allowed
the district for completing its devel-
opment of the Verde project in Ari-
zona. 1t was on behalf of bill to
confirm the titles held by the district
that Senator Cameron took the SEN
ate floor during the last half hour
of the session here last Saturday and
conducted one-man filibuster shut
ting out many measures favored by
other senator's.

Supt. Rose gave the students a
spirited talk in assembly Tuesday
morning. He forcefully empha-
sized the need of increasing schol-
astic standing of the pupils in the
high school. In his talk, Mr..
Rose made the students under
stand that "three-year high
school term" a, popular policy
among many students during the
last few years, would not be
tolerated any more. students
carry five or six subjects and
then funk in half of them, said
Mr.. Rose, "and on account of this,
no student will be permitted to
take more than four subjects
starting next semester, unless he
or she has proved or can prove
capable of handling all of them
successfully"
Within the last few days, sew
eral students of the high school
have departed to continue their
studies elsewhere, and many new
pupils have enrolled. Among the
new guests are: Lawrence Marsh,
who halls from Biloxi, Mississippi
thigh school; Hazel Bagula and
Fred Bagule- from Holtville. u Cali
fornia. Lawrence Marsh brings
with him a reputation Of having
participated in many branches of
Z. sport in the east. Cecilia Ber-
reda has returned to the high
school after an absence Of many
months spent in Navajoa. Fred,
Sam, and Joe Daw have left the
Nogales Hi to continue their
. studies in Los Angeles. Albert
Walker. valuable Apache star,
and player around whom Coach
Zimmerman expected to build his
basketball quintet this season,
will soon leave for Los Angeles.

The first assembly of the new
year was held in the high school
last Tuesday morning at nine
o'clock. Principal Mitchell an
nounced that the end of the first

one more week, and that the date
on which the semester ends would
be on January %.
Work on the operetta has been
progressing we'll the past few
days. "El Bandido" the name OF
this years musical comedy, will
probably be staged at the Ali
Baba theatre on the night of Feb
ruary 2. The operetta this year is
expected to be much better than
it was last, and with several en-
terprising students of the high
school taking part, it will surely
be a success.
The Seniors looked over a SAM
pie of the cap and gown for grad
uation sent to the high school last
week. Although the cap and the
gown are beautiful, there is gen
eral tendency among the majority
of the Seniors to wear a different
gown this year.
So much advantage has. been
taken of the liberality of Consul
tation permits, that Principal Nit
chell warned the students few
days ago, against getting permits
to consult teachers who are busy
during the time the students wish
to consult them. No student will
be allowed to consult any teacher
unless that teacher is not busy at
the time, or has vacant period.
