make his long-deferred re-appear.
ance in an American ring tonight
and everything is all to the altar
OF roses, except that they picked
an opponent who would make Paw
Iowa look like an aggravated case
Of fallen arches. In q weak mo-
ment, they named Jack Civic, one
of those pestiferous gents who de-
fieg any and all to make Q show
ing either with or against him.
From Milligau's standpoint, the
match isn't az silly a. It sounds.
It IN sillier.
According to the original plans,
he was to have met Mickey Walker
for the title, but the State athletic
commission would have none Of It..
This was bad for all concerned but
worse for Milligan. All he could
have lost was the decision and he
might have saved his reputation.
win, lose or draw tonight. he may
not be able to do that against
Zivic.
This nuesY young man has
that ecliOOlgiri complexion ana
the sISin you love to touch, but
the boy simply doesn't bruiso
easily, you know. You hit him
and he ignores the incident en-
tireIy. He hits you and the mat
Ter seems equally unImp0Ftapt-
Meanwhile, the tangle Of hands
and elbows proceeds until they
can IN the sheriff with 9 search
warrant and some one finds out
what became Of the points scored.
Hvic makes the good ones look
bad and the bad ones look worse.
Unless MiIligan IL somewhat better
than the writer considers him, he
viii make q distinct impression on
neither Zivic nor the crowd. The
chances are good that the cloak
and suit men viii call him =
tramp, whether he wins or loses.
This is to be depIored in view OF
the fact that no little importance
rides with the result. Our Mr..
Rickard Ia inbued with the com
mendabie idea OF matching the
winner with Joe Dundee and send
ing the survivor in with the cham
pion at such time as the commits
sion removes the ball and chain.
This may be significant because
they say Walker is due to be taken
to the cleaners by some enterpris'
ing gent one OF these fine days. How
ever, IL Milhgan fails. to shake off
Zivic's arms and elbows tonight,
Richard is likely to forget the plan
and remember The high cost Of
ushers. Just a bad match for Mil
ligan, that's all.
What is likely to please the but
tonhole makers far more is the semi.
final, involving California Joe Lynch
and Bushy Graham, two OF the best
bantams In the land. Either could
probably take Charley Phil Rosen'
berg for the title but, unfortunately,
you have to catch Charles before
you take him. It will be Lynch's
Easter debut.

UP new BUILDINGS

Frank Brooks, the bottling works
man, has been branching out lately
and now in addition to the works and
his grocery, hardware and meat store,
has one of the finest and most COM
plete automobile service stations in

At the rear of his property in the
west end he has erected building
for automobile accessories, installed
a filling station, provided ample stor-
age facilities for tourists who prefer
not to leave their cars in City park,

cottages for summer rental. The
street in front Of the service station
is being graded for driveway Har-
old Cameron, who recently came back
with his family from Tucson, has

DIR. COTTON BELIEVES in
PRACTICAL EDUCATION
HE TELLS ROTARIANS

DR. F. A. Cotton, chairman for the
day at Tuesdays Rotary meeting,
disappointed in the non-appearance of
the man he had hoped would be
speaker, went to bat himself and gave
fine talk.
Dr. Cotton spoke of our RESPONSE
bilities to the boys and girls, and
emphasized the need for education
that will include knowledge how to
do at least one thing very well along
with the academic branches. He IL.
Iustrated by telling of schools he had
visited where the pupils are trained
in industries of various kinds as we'll
as in regular school work. He
said that we must combat the tenden-
cy to make education entirely aca-
demic, as that makes it foreign to
life, and avoid making it entirely in
dustrial, which makes it foreign to
culture.

Jessup and Miss Selma Aas, with

Softley, newest acquisition to local
Rotary ranks, mixing compliments
with fasetious roasts so deftly that
it kept the bunch busy between laugh
ter and sobriety.

and closed the meeting, called atten-
tion to the illness of Secretary Art
Riordan, and former secretary George

BEGINNING HERE TODAY

Today and tomorrow, the seventh
annual track and field meet of the
Northern Arizona Athletic association
will be held at Flagstaff Teachers
college. Nine high school have signi-
field their intention to be represent
ed and the meet promises to be the
best ever.
: For the first time in the history of
the meet, the local high school is
counted as a dangerous contender for
the honors. On comparative scores
in the meets held so far this year,
Flagstaff rates with the best of the
schools of the north.
The iavelin will be a part of the
meet for the first time this year.
Flagstaff is favored to win this
event easily.

FOUR NEW DRY KILNS
WILL BE BUILT BY THE
FLAGSTAFF LUMBER co.

Saving at the Flagstaff Lumber
Co. mill was to have been resumed
the first of this week to cut the logs
in the pond into ties and slabs, there
being $4,000 or more ties needed to
put the company's logging road to
Mormon Lake into good shape for
hauling the logs in from the woods.
Then it was decided rather than call
the mill men back to work for only a
few days to ship the ties in from the
McNary plant instead.
The railroad Improvement work
will be pushed ahead rapidly and i'm
provements at the mill will begin
soon. These include the building of
four dry lilns, and a general over
hauling. 1t is believed that the inn
provements win be completed and the
mill will resume operations not later
than August 1.
James Girand, Jr.. civil engineer,
was here from the headquarters of
flee of the Cady Lumber corporation
at McNary last week on preliminary
work connected with the improve
ments here. While here he visited
with relatives, City Engineer and Mrs.
Frank Goodman.
Mr.. Grand said the corporation
needs at least so more carpenters
here and at McNary. There were
about 200 carpenters at work at the
latter place.
While the temporary shutting down
of the mill late in the winter left q
lot of men without work, it didn't
work much hardship on them, good
many being kept busy at the planning
mill and many others a short time
later getting employment with G. Z.
Green, contractor, building the new
city reservoir. BY the time the lat
ter is completed the men will be IN
demand again at the sawmill and in
the woods.

LAST FRONTIER FILMING
FINISHED LAST WEEK

With promise that "The Last From
tierD will be one of the epics of the
screen when released, the band OF
METROPOLITAN actors and staff that
have been engaged in shooting" the
exteriors at The Gap completed their
labors last week. The interiors OF
the photo drama will be filmed in the
studio. Despite rather uncertain
weather, Director George B. Seitz has
pushed production whenever the CHI
matte conditions warranted and fin
ished work here on schedule.
First film rushes were shown IN
the Mess hall at the camp during
three nights and the entire company
is enthusiastic over the possibilities
of the pioneer drama from the pen OF
Courtney Riley Cooper. "The Last
Frontier bids fair to even surpass
the popularity of "The Covered Wag-
on"
With an all-star cast headed by Bill
Boyd and Marguerite de la Motto and
including J.. Farrell Maconald, Junior
Coghlan, Mitchell Lewis, Jack Hoxie,
and Gladys Brockwell, the completed
picture is bound to assay high.
The scenic grandeur OF Echo Hllls
and Tsinabanshabitin have been
transferred to the screen with the ex-
actness to detail of an artists mas
terpiece. Beautiful natural back
ground for the gripping pioneer tale
enhances its potentiality.
Bill Boyd and Miss de la Motto
are ideal as the hero and heroine In
the Cooper opus and the forcefulness
of their characterizations proclaim
them artists worthy of their selection
for the roles.
Another budding star will be heard
from following the release of "The
Last Frontier" in the person OF
Junior Coghlan, nine-year-old young
ster, who has been coming to the
front rapidly. His remarkable acting
in this picture stamps him as COM
ing dramatic genius and undoubtedly
the successor to Jackie Coogan in
boyish characters.
Mr.. Seitz, director, and John o..
Rohlfs, business manager of the COM
pany, through The Sun wish to extend
their thanks to the residents of Flag
staff and surrounding communities
for their hearty cooperation in the
filming of tThe Last Frontier"
Mayor Loren Cress and the citizens as
a collective body have been generous
w helpful and for their assistance the
Metropolitan Pictures corPs~ation al
so wishes to voice It's gratefulness.

THREE MURDER CASES ON
SPRING COURT DOCKET

With three murder cases on the
docket, spring term of superior court,
which it is believed by Judge ]. E.
Jones will convene on June ID, prom
ises to furnish plenty of entertain
ment.
DEPENDENTS in these three cases are:
Harry (Indian) Miller, who shot and
killed Elmer Cundiff at Canyon
Lodge a few weeks ago; Sloan Bur-
gen, colored, who shot and killed Joe
Cans, a fellow employe, also colored,
of the Flagstaff Lumber Co., early
this spring, and Granville w. Johnson,
accused of killing his wife with a
hatchet near Williams on May 2.
Harry Miller's bulwark will be self
defense. Burgen likely viii seek
comfort in the unwritten law. john
son probably will plead not guilty.
Johnson has steadily maintained
innocence ever since his arrest. He
is disinclined to talk at all. Not that
he seems. surly, but he isn't sociably
inclined and the death of his wife
seems to be the last thing he cares
to discuss. Strong efforts have been
made by Sheriff John Parsons and
County Attorney Harrison to get him
to confess. The most effective of
these in demonstrating Johnson's at
titude was when he was confronted
by his dead wife's father and her lit
tie son by former marriage. john
son refused to look at either of them.
The father, ]. w. Meyers of Los An
geles pleaded with Johnson. "For
Gods sake, man." he said to Johnson,
.'say something; either that you did
or didn't kill Hazel Say something"
But Johnson steadily looked the
other way and refused to say word.

years ago. Mr.. Bernheimer wrote up
that trip for the National Geograph-
ic magazine and furnished many
magnificent illustrations with the

MISS MARGARET STEWART
PERMANENT SECRETARY
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

Miss Margaret X. Stewart, the
capable, energetic young woman who
was chief secretary to L. A. Web
ster of the Hockenbury System dur
ing the hotel drive here, has been en-
ployed by the directors of Flagstaff
Chamber of Commerce to be perma
nent secretary of the chamber.
Miss Stewart was largely influ
enced in accepting the position by the
conviction that most effective work
can be done here. The success of the
hotel drive and the wonderful get
together spirit it proved latent here,
has convinced everyone that had any
thing to do with the drive that we
can get together and go after other
improvements, and get them. The
Chamber of Commerce, as /. B. Koch,
general manager of the campaign fre-
quently mentioned during the cam
paign, is the organization that was
primarily responsible for starting the
movement for the new hotel. The
Chamber of Commerce proved its
worth to Flagstaff. Flagstaff people
will be solidly behind it in further
efforts.
Miss Stewart was secretary to the
Tacoma community chest for two
years, secretary Of the Grays Harbor
county branch of the Automobile club
of Washington, for three years, had
years work in the Washington
State college department of journal
ism, and has splendid references.
The new secretary is in Los Ange-
les for few days, but will soon be
back here and on the job, hustling
for Flagstaff.
