St, Louis, Jan. 9G LP, -- Another university educator is on record in opposition 10 the 18th amendment. Dr. Christian Gauss, dean Of tho college of Princeton university, made q plea last night for repeal or modi- lication of the federal dry law in an address here, The dean spoke at the 5oth annual banquet of the Prince Ton club of St. Louis and his attack on prohibition was cheercd hy an audience that included many prom inent SC.

 He avowed that the 18th amend ment 'is lowering the morals in nll universities of the United States and asked his hearers to use their influence 10 repeal or modify it!
 we cannot deny that the habit of drinking is very serious ono at Princeton as at all other American universities" Dr. Gauss said.
 Tn the time when you men at- tended the university. there were places where the students could drink q glass or two of beer without great harm 10 themselves. Today, if they want to drink, and it is folly to say they will not drink, they must go to a type of place which if We called spade q spade, would be designated as q dive

FIREMAN KILLED WHEN
PASSENGER TRAIN NO.
STRUCK SWITCH ENGINE.
WILLIAMS YESTERDAY

Fireman C. Chambliss of the
Santa Fe railway switch engine
at Williams was killed yesterday
noon at Williams when that en-
gine backed on to the main line
at Williams and was sideswiped
by the locomotive of west-b0und
passenger train No. 9.
The wreck was spectacular, the
lighter switch engine being hurled to
the bottom of the 30-foot embank-
ment and on to its back, the big pas
senger engine leaving the south or
west-bound track, blowing diagonally
across the east-bound track and bury
ing itself to a depth of six feet in
the road-bed at the edge of the 30
foot drop on that side. None of the
passenger coaches were derailed and
none of the passengers severely hurt,
though many of them were badly
shaken up and slightly bruised.
No. 8, drawn by locomotive No.
3744 was coming down the grade in
to Williams a quarter-mile east of
the station, the switch set for it,
when switch-engine No. 713, pulling
a train of work cars, backed in from
the switch south of the mainline and
partly on to the main line, where the
heavier engine side-swiped it.

Mrs. Hubert Richardson yesterday
advised The Sun that the celebrated
Hopi annual snake dance will be held
on Saturday, August 21, at Hoteville.
Mrs. Richardson was given the date
by Lorenzo Hubbell of Oraibi, Indian
trader who knows every Hopi in the
several villages, so the date may be
regarded as authoritative
Flagstaff is the principal and by
far the most convenient railroad and
automobile highway point of entry to
the dance. The road is good and
Hoteville is only 100 miles from mere,
in fact is the nearest Hopi village
at which this annual ceremonial is
ever held. Cars may go from here
either by way of Leupp or Cameron
and Tuba. The Leupp route is the
shorter. The other route, while long
er and having a good deal of sand at
points, is more scenic. A favorite
practice of many is to go by way of
Leupp and return through Tuba City
and Cameron.

RAY SIMPSON BUILDING
MODERN RESIDENCE

Foundation work has begun on the

H. Simpson on his three lots at the
east end of East Dale avenue. These
lots are admirably located, affordlng
a view all over town and a street
ending at Dale avenue and directly
in front of the new building insures
against the view later being obstruct-
ed. Pete Solberg has charge of the
work. There has been much grading
done. The walls will be pressed brick,
light with darker trimmings. The
size will be 36x68 feet over all, one
story, and there will be furnace and
other modern features. There will be
retaining wall at the side, a brick
wall in front of the same brick as
in the building. A commodious ga
rage will be built at the rear. There
will be an automobile driveway along
the east side, partly covered. Mr..
and Mrs. Simpson expect to get into
their new home before cold weather
sets in. This handsome new home
will add much to the good looks OF
that rapidly building section of town.

COLONEL EMBACH BACK
ON JOB AS SECRETARY
STATE Wool GROWERS

Lt.-Col. Harry B. Embach came up
from Phoenix Monday, well rested as
a result of his vacation, most of
which he spent with Mrs. Embach
and the children visiting relatives in
Texas, and took charge of the office
of the Arizona Wool Growers asso-
citation, which is located here for the
summer. Col. Embach, who had been
secretary of the association for some
time except during the last associa-
tion year, when he resigned to man
age the Campbell, Francis & Co.
sheep business, was again elected
secretary in July at the first meeting
of the directors following the state
convention here. While he viii be
here practically all of the time until
he moves the office to Phoenix for
the winter, he believes he viii not
bring his family up from Phoenix, as
it will be only month or so before
school begins there.
Miss Louise Hodges, who had been
Col. Embach's assistant and held
down the .secretaryship during his
years absence from the job, may re-
main here, though she plans return
ing to Phoenix. Her work has been
most efficient and it is understood
there are numerous bids for her ser
vices in important positions.

Engineer j. E. Wiley of the switch
engine was painfully but not danger
ously scalded. Engineer Morrison of
No. received a cut on his head, but
it was not serious. His fireman was
not injured. No. 9's engine did not
turn over.
Chambliss' crushed body was not
recovered until GAS last evening, sew
eral hours after the wreck occurred,
though strenuous efforts were made
to get to him by digging hole un-
der the engine, under which he was
pinned to the ground. Though Cham
bliss head could be seen by the men,
nothing further could be done until
the arrival of the wrecking engine
from Winslow, which did not get
there until five yesterday evening.
The accident occurred at 1908. The
west-bound local freight was close
behind No. 9 and as soon as stray
wreckage could be cleared away, pull
led the coaches on, the delay amount
ing to an hour and a half. 1t was
believed unlikely that No. 9's engine
would be back -on the track before
this morning.
The wrecked switch-engine former
ly was used in the Flagstaff railroad
ward.

GERMAN MACHINE GUN
TAKEN BY AMERICANS
GIVEN TO COUNTY HERE

Returning from the state tax meet
ing at Nogales last Friday, Joe Kel-
lam, chairman of the county board
of supervisors, called on Governor
Hunt and got one of the German ma
chine guns the governor had had
shipped to Arizona for the counties,
and brought it to Flagstaff in his
car.
The gun is now in the supervisors
room at the court house. Some plan
for keeping it on permanent display
will be adopted. 1t may be kept in
the court house, or mounted in the
court yard, depending on what later
seems to be the general opinion. 1t
was made in 1917, according to the
manufacturers stamp on the barrel,
and was among many captured by
our American soldiers in France. The
gun shows some marks received in
battle, but is in a good state of re-
pair.
