ArizOna's S Beauty
Photo Contest

Another record for "See Arizona"
vacation travel within the state is
likely to be chalked up by the end of
summer, according to the consensus
of opinion of reports from various
recreational areas summarized by the
Arizona Industrial Congress in a
statement today.
BY far the greater number of re-
ports the Industrial Congress has re-
ceived from chambers of commerce
and other cooperating agencies lndi-
cate that more Arizonans have spent
or are spending their summer vaca-
tions in their own state than ever be-
fore. This is the fifth consecutive
year a general increase in 'sSee Ari-
zona First" travel has been appar-
ent, except that much of it is now
"See Arizona Again" travel, as more
and more Arizonans are finding 1t
requires several seasons to really See
Arizona"
Northern Arizona naturally has de-
rived greatest benefits from the pop
ularity of the "See Arizona" idea,
an dthe Prescott and Flagstaff Sec
tions in particular report excellent
intrastate as well as interstate trav-
el. The White Mountains also have
had a heavy quota of visitors, while
Mormon Lake and its neighbors are
developing rapidly as summer re-
sorts. Mountain recreational areas
adjacent to Tucson, Nogales, Bisbee,
Douglas, Globe, Miami and other
southern localities also have been ex-
ceedingIv popular.
In connection with the "See Arizo-
naV movement, chambers of COM
merce of the state and the Industrial
Congress are conducting third an
nual "See Arizona" Scenic Photo con-
test in which any scene taken in Ari-
zona this year by any Arizona resi-
dent not a professional photograph
er may be entered. The contest car
ries 500 in cash prizes and will close
the end Of September, and entries
may be made through any chamber
Of commerce.

Two Killed In Auto
Crash Near HOlbrOOk

One man was killed instantly and
another died as the result of injuries
received when a large touring car
driven by O. L. Womac, of Okemah
Okla, hit some loose sand while trav-
cling at a high rate Of speed and
turned over on the highway eight
miles west of Holbrook Sunday. Wo-
mac was killed in the accident and a
one legged man whose identity has not
been learned died at $50 p. m. that
day from injuries. A third occupant
of the car was not injured.
Sheriff Divelbess released the young
man, who continued his trip westward
and has wired to several addressed
found in Womac's car in an attempt
to identify the second victim and to
locate relatives, if possible. He
learned that Womac is veteran of
the World war.
Womac and his party stopped at
Holbrook at noon Sunday, and the
driver declared that he had driven
from Magdalena to Holbrook, about
ESQ miles, since 8 o'clock that morn
ing, and expected to make Needles
that night. The uninjured young man
said Wonac was making more than
so miles an hour when he hit some
loose gravel on an easy turn.
