MADDEN RETURNS
FROM TUCSON MEET
OF SCHOOL HEADS

Returning from Tucson last week
where he went to preside over the
regular meeting of the Arizona
School Administrators conference,
superintendent of schools, G. H.
Madden reports that two days were
taken in presenting most interest
ing and instructive program, deal
ing with many phases of schools
and their administration.
The conference, which was coin
cidental with University Week,
gathered for the purpose of dis
cussing ways of improving the var
ious details relative to school sup
ervision that are seldom recogniz-
ed as salient problems.
Many institutions which are not
efficient, such as written examin-
ations, janitor service, school leg
islation and general curriculum
were held up to the view of the
schoolmasters, their weaknesses ex-
planned, and suggestions for their
betterment offered.
A general adoption of these ideas
may seem radical at first, accord
ing to Professor Madden, but the
improved practices are sure to come
sooner or later, and their use by
all schools will do much to iron
out some of the petty annoyances
and inefficiency in schools as they
are.

PLAN BASEBALL
ELIMINATION TO
DECIDE CHAMPS

May 30th and 31st may be just
days of the month to some people,
or rather holiday and an ordin-
ary day, but to local baseball bugs
the two days will mean an inter-
esting menu of what travels under
the alias of the national pastime, -
for on those two days the three To-
cal teams will tangle to decide just
who, if any, are city champs, &C
cording to Frank Seigmund, genial
spokesman of the "Winslow Mer-
chants"
According to Siegmund, the Mer-
chants will take on the Rip Track
Redskins Sunday, May 30th, and
the club that energies victor in that
scuffle will square off against the
shades of night, which is to say,
the coiored Red Sox from the round
house, on Monday, May 31st.
AS the Merchants "took" the Red
Sox last Sunday by more or less
lop-sided score, the winner of the
first game should win in a walk,
but baseball results have a way of
upsetting the dope bucket, and the
brunets may hand both the abort
ginals and upholders of Caucasian
supremacy nasty surprise when
the tilt come off.

Holbrook Auto Races
Sunday Promise A
Thrill Every Minute

Highland Park Speedway at Hol-
brook is due to celebrate Sunday,
May 16, in big league style when
Arizona and New Mexico's best
dirt track drivers meet in a 5O-mile
auto race on the fastest oval in the
southwest.
The Highland Park Racetrack
Association have the mile oval as
level and as smooth as a kitchen
floor, and when at least eight speed
babies start tearing around Sunday
afternoon all records will go flying.
Entries so far are: Ralph Miller,
of Payson, Arizona, in his Stude-
baker Special; C. o. Breeze of
Grants, New Mexico, with his
Frontenac Ford Special, to be driv-
en- by White; Chuck Anderson of
Douglas, with his Ford Special;
Jack Flanigan's A. & G. Dodge
Special, from Holbrook; Tony Yur-
cic, with his Studebaker Special
from Gallup; w. c. Agnew of Wins
low, plotting the Sellberg Special,
and two more entries yet to come
from albuquerque.
The 5O-mile auto race is scheduI-
ed for 2:30 p. M, to be preceded
by spirited baseball game be-
tween Winslow and Holbrook,
starting at II a. m. Sunday. Satur-
day afternoon and Sunday morning
time lapse races for places in the
50-mile event will take place
Ralph Miller, a former resident
of Winslow and at one time an en-
ployee of Bazell Motor company,
has entered his speedy Studebaker
Special, and if he duplicates any of
his past performances he should
cop honors Sunday.
The speed-wagon was a product
of the local motor company plus
the ingenuity of Miller, as he built
the car himself here.
In three races he has entered he
has taken two first places, one at
Holbrook, and piloted his car to
second place in the speed classic
at the last fair in Phoenix.

Penney Store Chief
Returns From Parley

l.. w. James, manager of the
Wlnslow store of the J. c.. Penney
company, returned this week from
Los Angeles, California, where he
attended the annual convention and
spring buying conference of Pen
ney store managers of four west
ern states. One hundred and five
stores in California, Arizona. New
Mexico and Nevada were repre-
sented at the two weeks conference
which began on April 23 and con-
cluded ON May 5.
The first two days were devoted
to a discussion of business of in
terest to the store managers. Rem
resentatives of the national office
OF the concern addressed the con-
ventlon. A banquet was held on
the night of April "a.
The remainder of the conference
was devoted to the purchasing of
goods for fall and holiday wear
All OF the business sessions were
held in the Alexandria hotel of Los
Angeles.
On his return Mr.. James visited
with his family who are remaining
IN Phoenix until the present school
term is ended.

ENGINES SLIGHTLY
DAMAGED in LIGHT
CRASH; NO INJURIES

A number of passengers were
slightly shaken up and some small
damage done to three engines when
No. 3, the California Limited of the
A. T. & S. F., westbound collided
with No. s, eastbound, at Chambers,
about 400 p. m. last Friday. Main
line traffic was held up about three
hours while a relief engine was
rushed to pull No. into Gallup.
Train No. 8 was being pulled by
two engines, the first of which was
piloted by Bob Kelly, the second
by John Wilhelm, when it nosed in
to No. 8, which, it is reported, was
supposed to have had the right of
way. M. Johns was engineer on
No. s.
Owing to the direction of the
track at Chambers, westbound
trains meet the full force of the
suns glare in the late afternoon,
and the binding sun-rays probably
were partly the cause of the crash.
Tracks were not damaged, and both
trains cleared into Winslow about
10:30 Friday night.

Clean Up And Paint Up

"Cities are what men make them
Our city is our own and it is up
to us to make it as attractive and
beautiful as possible if we want
the city to grow and prosper. We
must have more than climate and
scenic wonders to attract people to
our town and to stimulate the pride
of the residents in it, and that is
the city itself-its cleanliness, it's
orderliness, and it's beauty.
To make the ideal city, "Clean
Up and Paint Up" campaigns are
organized. The streets are clean

planted with grass, flowers and

CITY ICE INJUNCTION HEARING is
POSTPONED TO NEXT MONDAY; CITY
ATTY CONFIDENT 1T WILL, BE DENIED

Hearing of the injunction brought
against Mayor Fred B. Douglas, and
members of the city council to pre-
vent the city's entering into the dis
tribution of ice in Winslow, was
postponed last Monday by Judge J.
E. Crosby at Holbrook, until the
coming Monday, May 18th, when the
application will be argued.
On the grounds of insufficient
bond having been furnished by the
plaintiff, signed by Mrs. Della Hunt
er, the plaintiff and w. C. Quebe-
deaux and Mrs. Jas. Hickey, City
Attorney P. A. Sawyer was success
ful in pleading that more time be
given the city until a sufficient
bond could be furnished by the
complainants
In the meantime the city attor-
ney has been delving into law and
announced this week he is salts
fled that the city will be success
full in sustaining their defense and
that the court will deny the injun-
ction:
Last FRIDAY attorney {. H. Jor-
dan, for the plaintiff, in an amend
ed complaint withdrew the clause
filed with the original injunction
asking that the city refrain from
acting as agents for the Bryan
Harvester company.
Following the arguments Monday
Judge Crosby is expected to rend-
er his decision within the following
day or two.
If the injunction should be grant
ed, supercedeas bond will be post
ed by the city, and the case will
be appealed to the supreme court,
and in the meantime, following fill
ing of bond, the city will be allow
ed to continued the distribution of
ice until the higher court has act
ed.
Filing of the injunction, however,
has not deferred the city officials
from proceeding with the distribu-
tion of ice, which is increasing
