DIR. ANCIL MARTIN, A
PHOENIX PIONEER DIES

Dr. Ancil Martin, nationally known
eye and ear specialist, and prominent
in the professional life of Phoenix
and Arizona for the past .35 years,
died Monday night at ST. Joseph's
hospital after an acute attack of
Bright's disease which confined him
to his bed about 10 days ago.
DR.. Martin had been subject to at
tacks of the malady for many years
and his condition was not regarded
as extremely critical until Sunday.
His condition grew worse Monday
morning and attending physicians,
including specialist from the coast,
had practically given up hope several
hours before the end came.
DR.. Martin was a recognized leader
in his profession and had been sig
nally honored on several occasions.
He was deep student of every phase
of activity connected with his work
and pioneered IN professional investl-
CATION He also took an active anc
helpful part in promoting public well

BIG CROWD AT SNOWFLAKE
ON PIONEER DAY

The largest crowd in the history of
Snowflake attended the Pioneer day
celebration held at this place last
Saturday, July "a. People from all
parts of the state gathered here to
take part in and enjoy the program
the committee put on that day. 1t
is estimated that between 1,500 and
1000 people attended the event.
About 800 automobiles were parked
around the grounds.
The celebration was held in reser-
voir at the John T. Flake ranch, which
is almost surrounded by large cotton
wood trees This place is without
doubt the best in all northern Arizona
for celebration of this kind and will
be even better when the grounds
have a little more work done on them
and few improvements made. The
afternoon sports of the Navajo county
fair will be held there this coming

TAX VALUES OF SHEEP
AND GOATS REMAIN SAME

President A. A. Johns and Charlie
Burton, of the Arizona Wool Grow
ers association, attended a meeting
of the county assessors, boards of
supervisors and the state tax commits
sion, in Nogales on July rs and 27,
at which time the tax valuations on
sheep and goats and other things,
were set.
We are glad to advise that it was

valuation on sheep and goats for tax
able purposes should remain as it has
been; namely, $500 and $500 respec-
lively.
President Johns and Vice President
Burton are deserving of our thanks
for their efforts on behalf of the
members of this association, mas

with the greatness of Cobb's
magnificent playing career.

In Cobb's attitude toward
scrapping verbally for all he
can get off the umpires, which
is usually nothing, Cobb is the
direct antithesis of George Sis
Ter. George doesn't fight hard
enough for his team - Cobb
fights too hard - and there,
ladies and gentlemen, you have
one of the oldest problems in
baseball today, for neither Cobb
nor Sisler are successful mana
gers.
Yes, an admitting baseball
public would be much gratified
to see the even-going, soft
spoken, energetic and brilliant
Speaker gather unto himself an
American League pennant at
the expense of a Yankee de-
cline, although New York has
been playing baseball that de-
serves reward.
Some say there is no senti-
ment in baseball, but we find
more and more of that quality
in the game the longer we re-
main interested in it. If con-
sistently good playing in every
department of the game de-
serves success, certainly none
could wish the Yanks aught else
on the strength of their per-
formances, yet, we hear so
many folks say, Gee, I'd like
to see Old iris Speakers team
creep up on the Yankees and
grab that pennant!"

After his session on the hills, fol-
lowed by a shower and rub by
Luis Fink, Gene lolled around and
talked .learnedly on the home
sapien. Osk Till had no idea at
first of what homo sapien was,
but later he asked II that was
how the word sap" originated.
Bud German told Osk that the
word never was spoken until some
one flashed Osk in the ring. Osk's
answer was the only one possible.
III Eat so?" he asked with wither-
ing tone.
After lunch the united country
side turned out to take a flash at
Gene in the ring. He is sight
to fill the eye. Tunney has grown
bigger in the last year. His
shoulders are broad and his chest
Is thick. His deltoid muscles are
wide and strong, but loose and
plant. These muscles supply much
of fighters hitting power.
Gene now has Osk Till, ROches-
ter's sturdy young middleweight,
boxing with him, and Bud Cor
man, the burly heavyweight from
KenOsha, is also ready to cOndi.
ton Gene for the coming fray.
Three rounds with Till yesterday
showed Tunney is in fine form.
He stepped in and around Till, who,
incidentally. is far from a slouch
at the art of hit, stop and getaway.
1t was noted that Osk was tossing
plenty of left hooks that Tunney
matched with a right cross, or a
right uppercut. Tunney was
gambling on calling the turn with
Tills feints and leads through
feints. Gene stepped in and hurled
