! A group OF four private business
men, headed by George w., Lawson,
may purchase the Crisfield Base Ball
Club and operate it as a private en-
terprise this season. This became
known at meeting of the Club Direc-
tors last week, when Mr.. Lawson's Of
fer to purchase the club franchise and
operate baseball at Crisfield, was re-
ported to the Directors. The propo-
sition was taken under advisement,
and decision will shortly be an
nounced, if Mr.. Lawson is still willing
to buy the Club.
Many Crisfeld fans, including sew
eral Club Directors, said to favor
the sale of the Club lin the belief that
only through private ownership can
base ball ever be made success in
Crisfeld. It is believed that a group
of three or four business men, If own
ers Of the Club, would operate it pure
ly as business enterprise, and would
be in better position to give the city
high grade base ball, on a paying
basis, than if the club is operated as
a public enterprise.
At the meeting last week the Club
officials took up selection of play
ing manager for the approaching sea-
son. They had several written appli-
cations for the position of manager,
but many were considered out of the
reach of the Crisfeld club land it was
finally decided to defer the employ
ment of manager until negotiations
for the sale of the club had been dis
posed of.
Among other matters of Importance
taken up at the Base Ball meeting
was the completion of arrangements
to present big Merchants and Manu-
facturers Exposition, Pure Food Show
and Mardi Gras, all in one. Contracts
were signed with the Roberts Com
pany, who successfully handled the
Salisbury and Easton Expositions re-
Gently. The Exposition will be held
in the Armory and the Chamber of
Commerce Rooms one whole week, be-
ginning Saturday night, March 18th,
and closing on March 10th. Z
There will be seven high class acts
each night, with wrestling, boxing,
free dancing, merchants exhibits, au-
tomobile displays, contests, baby
show, Charleston dancing contest, -ex-
hibition booths of all kinds and many
other amusements.
Tickets good for the seven nights
will be sold for rs cents, and each sea-
son ticket will entitle the holder to a
free chance on the Ford car to be Civ
en- away free on the last night, as well
as all drawings each night, when at
1870 o'clock free nightly prizes will
be given away. These prizes will con-
sist of barrels of groceries, furniture,
silverware, and many other valuable
and useful articles. There will be free
dancing as well as paid dancing each
night.
A Miss Crisfeld contest will be the
only standing contest during the en-
tire Exposition, and this contest will
begin at once. Handsome prizes will
be awarded the three winners in the
"Miss Crisfeld" contest, as follows:
First prize-A beautiful diamond
ring.
q
Second prize-A 14-carat white gold
wrist watch.
Third prize-A beautiful amber tot
let set.
This is not beauty contest but a
ticket-selling contest, for those who
sell the most tickets to the Exposition
and on the Free Automobile.

HAYDEN ATTACKS
CAMERON CLAIMS
TO "INFLUENCE''

| BISBEE-"One of the season S
outstanding myths is the claim that
| is being put forth by the press
| agents of Senator Ralph Cameron
about his close connection with
President Coolidge" said Repre-
sentative Carl Hayden, Democratic
candidate of the United States SEN
ate in statment made here Mon
day
Senator Cameron is played up
as a staunch administration sena-
tor who can get whatever he goes
after because Of his intense 10y
atty to the administration, Hayden
said.
although he made two speeches
against it, he could not prevent the
senate from appropriating 100000
for one-half of the cost of the
bridge across the Colorado river,
near Lees Ferry This bridge will
be built regardless of his most
strenuous opposition.
Senator Cameron did his best to
amend the interior department ap-
preparation bill to make $450,000
Immediately available for eXpedi
ture on the Coolidge dam, but
without success. A few weeks lat
er I had no difficulty in securing
$725,000 for that purpose in the de-
ficiency bill.
Senator Cameron promised the
people of Coconino county two
years ago that he would, without
fail, obtain an appropriation for
road from Maine station to the
Grand Canyon national park. He
did introduce a bill to that effect,
upon which no action was taken
because he did not have influence
enough with the department to OBJ
tain favorable report on it.
''The same is true of number
of his other bills, which have been
knocked in the head by members of
the presidents cabinet His press
agents list these bills as pending
legislation thereby endeavoring to
create the impression that they may
become laws"

Scientist At Lowell
Seeking Marian Life

| FLAGSTAFF investiga-
ton into the possibility that life
can exist on the planet Mars will
be undertaken this winter by DR.
! w. w. Coblenz at Lowell observa-
tory, Flagstaff, Arizona
DR.. Coblenz has the latest model
of heat measuring instruments
which enable close calculations OF
the actual surface temperatures on
the planet Although Mars is 49,
100000 miles distant, the instru-
ments are said to distinguish be-
tween night and day temperatures,
and between temperature at diff
ferent localities at the same time.
DR.. Coblenz first attacked the
problem here about two years ago
and reported that noon day tenn
peratures in certain Martian dark
areas ranged from so to 68 de-
grees, while lighter colored neigh
boring areas had at the same time
temperatures ranging from IA to
Al degrees. The dark spots are
believed to denote spaces covered
with vegetation, while the light
ones are tentatively described as
plateaus. During the winter at
Martian north pole the temperature
was fairly constant at "a degrees
below zero.
The basis of the instrument used
in measuring the Martian heat is
the thermocouple, a welding where
two different metals join. When
the thermocouple is exposed to the
radiated heat from Mars, infinites-
NAL as this energy is, there arises
through the welding a slight cleo
tric current, the variation in which
can be measured. From this phe-
nomena Dr. Coblenz has been en-
abled to make his calculations as
to the probable temperatures of the
heat source to which the instru-
ment points.
Dr. CoblenZ of the y. S. bureau
of standards, with Mrs. Coblenz, ar
rived last week and are staying on
Mars hill, where DR.. Coblenz will
work in collaboration with G. o.
Lampland in continuing and ex-
tending the heat measurements of
Mars and the other planets that
they began few years ago.
