PLANS TOLD
TO ROTARIANS

Further news as to just when
the Community Chest organization
would start operations was con-
tanned in a message delivered to
WinsIow Rotarians at their regu-
lar Wednesday meeting by Rotar-
ian Sam Proctor, chairman of the
Chest committee. Mr.. Proctor said
that the policy committee of the
Chest would meet before the first

action of the Community Chest.
In the absence of President
Claude Quebedeaux, the gavel was
welded by DR.. G. P. Sampson, who
introduced Elmer Black as chair
man of the day in charge of the
program.
The program consisted of talks
by members on recreationaI needs
of Winslow, and a committee was
appointed to represent the local Ro-
tary club in locating a new Swim
min hole,' now that improvements
at Clear Creek have made the old
beach thing of the past. That
the committee will ask the Santa
Fe for permission to use the pro-
posed concentration tank near the
old gas plant as a municipal swim
ming pool was intimated by G.. H.
Madden, appointed to the commit
tee.
Rotarian w. R. Hessell told of

ing fostered by the Methodist
church. In this organization two
groups of boys, one group twelve
to fourteen years of age, the 9TH
er fifteen and up, met for class ex-
ercises and choral singing. Rev.

brain as we'll as basketball motions,
WinsloW last Friday night spanked
the Flagstaff quintet by score of

Make Plans, Casaba
Contest At Flagstaff

FLAGSTAFF-Ten Northern Ari-
zona teams will compete in the
fourth annual basketball tourna-
ment to be held under the auspices
of the Northern Arizona athletic
association at the Flagstaff Teach
ers College on Friday and Satur-
day, March II and 13 according
to Tai Jessuppe, chairman.
The quints will represent Flag
staff, Williams, Kingman, Prescott,
Jerome, Clarkdale, Varde Valley,
Winslow, st. Johns and Snowflake.
Holbrook and Round Valley are the
only clubs in the northern loop
conference that will not be repre-
sented this year.
There will be no girls tourna-
ment. This action was made i'm
perative on account of a great
many girls who sustained injuries
in last years play. The athletic
coaches and superintendent of
schools who were in attendance at
the directors meeting last May vot-
ed the girls tournament out this
year. However, this action did not
entirely do away with girls basket
ball teams in the north. Teachers
College here did not put a girls
team on the court this year, and
many of the Northern Arizona high
schools limited their games. Miss
Lora Maxwell, of the department
of physical education for women
here, states that in her experience
she has seen many girls who par
ticipated in basketball injured for
life. She believes baseball and vol
ley ball are less injurious to the
health of the girls and these sports
will eventually supplant basketball
for girls.

of speculative production and so on
caused the deliberate continuation of
the policy.
Still, hand-to-mouth buying is not
free from disadvantages, and it may
prove temporary policy. In that
event, the possibility of overproduc-
ton, cancellation of ill-advised orders,
sudden declines in prices, with conse-
quent depression in many industries,
will return. That possibility is an
other name for the apprehended bust
ness cycle.
Modern industry faces many new
problems, especially in the United
States, and the ablest economists find
it difficult to forecast future develop
ments. Meanwhile the safe course is
that which American bankers, finan-
ciers and manufacturers have followed
in recent years-the course of prud-
ence and conservatism in the exten.
sion of credit and in new commitments
and expension, the perseverance in
the promotion of efficiency and cost
reduction.
