ROAD IMPROVEMENTS
ON NORTHFORK ROAD
Road improvements Making Great
est Motor Highway in World
Bad Turns on Park Road Be
ing Eliminated

The Chas. Enochs road crew at
work on the Northfork road is max
ing many transformations along this
scenic highway, and on June LIST,
when it has been announced the
Eastern Gateway to Yellowstone
park will be opened, motorists will
have little to fear in the way of
auto accidents as they guide their
motors over this wonderful road.
Starting with Shoshone canyon,
practically all of the thrills were
taken out of this road last year
with the Improvements at both ends
of the canyon, with the building OF
Hayden arch, and the widening OF
the road down to the first tunnel.
This year the long tunnel is being
widened. to a roadway of sixteen
feet, with curb in center to make
safe the passage of cars within the
tunnel. Beyond the tunnel the sharp
turn at the government building
a level above the buildings connec-
ton with the old road at a point
some distance from the dam. Work
has also been done on the farther
end of the canyo leaving but a
small portion of the former road to
be used this season.
At Hanging Rock, where the
Enoch's crew has been at work
the sharp curve has been eliminated
by the blasting away of the heavy
rock formation and the widening of
the road, eliminating the curve back
under the rocky cliff. Again at

NINETEEN TO NOTHING
VALLEY BOYS VICTORS

The Valley Ranch school boys
demonstrated a few of the finer
points of baseball 20 the team of the
Cody high school on Saturday after
noon, defeating the local boys to
the tune of nineteen to a goose egg.
The contest was one-sided from
start to finish, the up-river lads
having it all over the home boys
throughout the nine innings.
Although the Valley school has
a very limited enrolment and 1t
takes at least half of the student
body to make up a baseball team
with intense training and persever-
ance a team has been developed
which plays a real poppy game, and
the local boys got the biggest sur
prise of their lives on Saturday
when they crossed bats with the
mountaineers.

summer vacation here in Cody. He
and his family will enjoy a motor
trip to Seattle, and possibly down
the coast to California, and it is

Elmer R. Kissack, who has acted
as principal in the Cody High school
during the last year will go to Flint,
Michigan next year., where he has

school this year, and has demon

est in his work here. His position
as principal is to be filled by Miss
Josephine Kollmeyer, who has beer
a member of the high school faculty
for several years, and who, by her
efficiency and ability in school work

Sweitzer, the school board feels they

SCHOOLS CLOSE SUCCESSFUL,
YEAR MANY TEACHERS RETURN
School Board Announces the Faculty for Next
Year-Hardin Retained and Miss jose
phine Kollmeyer to be Principal

On Friday the Cody Schools will close another most sue.
cessful year, and the corps of efficient teachers will separate
many to return to their homes in other states, some going t.
summer school work while a few expect to spend the vacation
days in the Wyoming Rockies. Although with the fall season
many very efficient teachers will fill in the broken ranks Of
the high school faculty, yet it is with regret that the people
of Cody. see the present teachers leave. They have been a
most efficient organization, interested in their educational work
here and as a whole one of the finest group of educators we have
ever had. Those who are coming back will be given a warm
welcome when they return in September, while those who are
choosing other fields of endeavor, will carry with them the
best wishes of their Cody friends.
