and ten minutes and reaching a depth
Oh TWO hundred and four feet. For
forty two minutes the huge craft lay
on the bottom of the ocean off New
London.
Although the pressure was IS 8
pounds per square inch and water
seeped through the seams. it was
agreed among members of the crew
throughout the submergence and the
craft stood up well under the strain.
During the deep dive those in the sub
marine were in constant communica-
ton with the school ship cruising on
the surface.
The vi. which was commissioned
in 1924. is 341 feet long, and carries
seven officers and eighty.four men.
With her sister ships, the w and V.3,
her hull was designed to withstand
pressure at a depth of two hundred

Of the San Francisco Peaks, but they
were all made to feel welcome by the
progressive citizens.
And we noticed this unique char
acteristic of Flagstaff. Every citi-
zen had his hand out in welcome to
the visitors, out in front for friend
ly handshake-and not out behind to
grasp any stray coin that the visitors
might have Unlike the conditions
that so often exist at such times, no.
tells and restaurants, garages and
other business firms catering to the
public made absolutely no advance in
prices while the visitors were pres
ent, but treated them in all respects
as ''home folks"
And another pleasing thing that
we noticed about Flagstaff: That lit
tie city, in our opinion, is the most
prosperous community in Arizona to-
day-Chandler, Of course, excepted.
Business men are prosperous and op-
timistic There is a spirit Of indus
try and prosperity permeating the
very atmosphere. The streets were
crowded with tourists, all spending
their money freely. Lumber mills and
other enterprises were running to full
capacity and crowds of sight-seers
and visitors from California, Nevada
and other states are flocking to Co
conino and adjoining counties for the
summer.-Chandler Arizonan.

If this should be read by any
Phoenix booster, we feel confident
that the writer will be condemned to
solitary confinement for the rest of
his life for saying it, but neverthe-
less, as we think it a pertinent sug-
gestion we will risk everlasting ire of
our neighboring city by remarking
that in the opinion of the editor, it
would be extremely appropriate to
move Arizona's Gold Spot" up to
Flagstaff for the next three months.
Many Chandler and Salt River Val
ley people have returned from their
joyful outing at Flagstaff and other
northern points of interest. Like the
delegates who attended the meeting
of the Arizona Good Roads associa-
ton, the week before, all are loud in
their praise of the hospitality of the
Flagstaff people.
The editor of the Arizonan was
one of the fortunate ones from Chand-
Ter to attend this meeting Of the Good
Roads association and was more than
pleased with the hospitality shown by
Flagstaff

Flagstaff comes nearer being an ideal

DIR. MARVIN EXONERATED
BY BOARD OF REGENTS

Charges preferred against the Cloyd
H. Marvin administration of the Uni
versity of Arizona by the Tucson
Ministerial association were not sus-
tanned by the board of regents in spe-
cial meeting held last Friday, it was
officially announced by Cleve Van
Dyke, secretary of the board. Five
of the eight regents present voted
against sustaining the charges, while
three voted to sustain the charges.
Governor G. w. P. Hunt was absent
from the meeting.
Immediately following the vote on
the charges, the regents abrogated
faculty constitution, returning full
governing power of the University to
the board of regents.
The Marvin administration has been
under fire by a group of faculty mem
bers and the Tucson Ministerial as
sociation for the past two or three
months. A hearing on the charges
was held in May and defense hear
ing was held the early part of June.
Action on the matter was taken Fri
day after an attempt had been made
to adjourn the meeting. A telegram
from Governor Hunt, asking that the
meeting be postponed until the fol-
lowing week was presented at the op-
ening of the meeting by Chancellor
Ellinwood. Regent Charles Layton
moved that the meeting be adjourned,
with G. O. Case, superintendent of
schools, seconding the motion. The
vote was four to four, so not carried
The five regents who voted against
sustaining the charges of the Minis
terial association were Chancellor E.
E. Ellinwood, John Campbell, Cleve
Van Dyke, J. j. Corrigan and G. O..
Case. Those voting in favor of sus-
taining the charges were Roy Kilpat-
rick, Charles Layton and Mrs. Theo-
dora Marsh.
The motion to abrogate the faculty
constitution was made by Secretary
Van Dyke and seconded by Mr.. Corri-
gan. This constitution was passed
four years ago and has been in op-
Grafton since that time. 1t has been
one of the points about which the
dispute has centered, having given the
faculty committee a share in the ad-
ministration of the university.

WANTS $4,000 DAMAGES
FOR PIPE LINE INJURY

Trial Of a suit for damages amount
ing to $4,000, with incidental ex-
penses of $175 and the costs of the
suit added, filed by L. l.. Crawford
of Flagstaff against the Cook O'Brien
Construction company was begun in
the district federal court Thursday
morning before Judge Fred C. Ja-
cobs. This is the first of a long
list of personal injury cases which
will be heard in the district court
during this month and the early part
of August.
Crawford, who is represented bv
O'Sullivan and Morgan, alleges in his
suit that on June % of last year he
was in the employ of the construc-
ton company and working as a lab
from the region of the San Francisco
orer on a water pipe which runs
peaks, near Flagstaff, to the CITY res
tervoir at that place. While he was
working in a tunnel and drilling
holes for blasting near large GUAM
tity of powder, a premature explo-
sion occurred, he claims, which caus-
ed him to suffer a concussion of the
brain, fracture of the base of his
skull, the loss of four teeth, an i'm
jury to his jaw bone, contusions of
the left arm, the loss of part of his
left ear, deafness, the paralysis of
his upper lip and several additional
injuries.
In defense, the construction COM
pany, which is represented by R. f..
Morrison and Louis Bunte, denies all
responsibility for the accident, de-
claring the mans injuries were re-
ceived as the result Of his own negli-
gence.
He was not working as an employe
of the company at the time the blast
occurred, the defendant concern al
leges, but as an Independent contrac-
tor, having signed contract to con-
struct the tunnel for $3.50, hiring his
own labor and furnishing such pow
der, fuse and caps as were neces-
sary.
1t was while he was working in
the capacity of contractor that he
was injured, the answer alleges, de-
claring the accident occurred when
Crawford was lighting the fuses at
tached to four shots.

CLARK INSINUATES HE
CAN SPEAK FOR HIMSELF

Hon. r. S. Clark, republican candi-
date for Arizona state governor, ar
pived in Nogales from Bisbee on a
tour of the southern portion Of the
state in company with Hi. Corbett,
state chairman of the republican par
ty. The object of the tour is to meet
representative republican leaders of
the southern portion of Arizona and
followers.
According to Mr.. Clark his recep-
tion has been excellent elsewhere and
here in Nogales apparently equal to
Douglas, Bisbee and Tucson. In a
short statement to the Herald Mr..
Clark declared that any rumor which
claims he opposes Senator Ralph H.
Cameron is false; that he, being a re-
publican, will support the republican
ticket in its entirety and that he will
give Senator Cameron full credit for
the outstanding achievements accom-
plished for the state.
Mr.. Clark explains his position on
the Colorado river project by stating
that he is not in favor of the Swing
johnson bill and that he disfayors any
measure that would give monopoly of
the waters of the Colorado to another
state or which would take it out of
its water shed. Mr.. Clark firmly be-
lieves that the most essential under
taking would be an adjustment on the
rights of the five state compact with
the lower basin states and IN event
that this could not be ABUSED that
Arizona depend upon its legal rights
in the matter.
Both Mr. Clark and Mr.. Corbett de-
part this afternoon for Phoenix, hav-
ing completed their southern tour.
Although an itinerary has not yet
been definitely drafted Mr.. Clark pro-
misses an early visit to Nogales.-

SWEDISH PRINCE VERY
DEMOCRATIC AT CANYON

While Crown Prince Gustaf Adolf
of Sweden was repeatedly unconsci-
ously demonstrating his democracy
Princess Louise was endearing herself
to residents of Grand Canyon with
her simplicity and charm during thei1
visit there last week.
'The most enjoyable day since we
came to America" remarked the
Princess on the royal party's return
from Cape Royal, on the north rim
of the Grand Canyon of the Colorado
river, and the prince himself was
heard to exclaim over and oyer dur
ing the trip, Magnificent"
The royal party motored to Cliff
Spring in the morning, leaving Wylie
Way Camp, where they spent the
night, at an earlier hour. Here be
side the stream which trickles down
from the cliff, they ate their lunch.
To Americans the spot is some
what of shrine, as President Roose-
welt camped there four days in 1908.
The royal couple sat around the same
rude stone that served as table for
the former president 18 years ago
His royal highness showed keen
knowledge of President Roosevelt
and his works.
At Cape Royal the couple stood
spellbound on the point and viewed
the spectacle, scenic panorama un-
surpassed in the west.
During the course of the jorney
to Camp Royal, it was necessary to
pass through several fences, and on
many occasions the crown prince was
the first out of the car, insisting upon
opening and closing the gate himself.
The party returned to Camp early
in the evening. A rest period had
been declared informally, and nothing
in particular had been planned for
the royal couples entertainment in
anticipation of the strenuous ride by
muie-back to the floor of the canyon
Thursday morning. Thursday night
was spent at Phantom ranch, 5000
feet below the surface of the earth,
and Friday the party reached Grand
Canyon.
Friday evening, Stephen B. Mather,
national park director, gave the royal
pair a dinner at the FL Tovar, which
was attended by number of promH:-
ent local people.

CRIMINAL GIVEN LAW
ADVANTAGE BAR COMPLAINS

The law gives too much advantage
to the criminal, in the opinion of the
national crime commissions sub-com~
nittee on criminal procedure and ju-
dicial administration. To correct this
situation, the committee recommends
drastic changes in the archaic, cum
bersome and ineffective criminal pro-
cedure that now obtains in major
ity of our states
Among it's recommendations, twen-
ty in number, is one that would
weaken the tenet that a man is pre-
sumed innocent until proven guilty
Another urges alteration of the

on a jury of twelve could bring about
conviction in felony cases, except
murder, and five on jury of six for
trial of misdemeanors.
