Cash Prizes For
Arizona Pictures

Another statewide aSee Arizona
Scenic Photo Contest carrying 500
in cash prizes for the best scenic
photographs taken in Arizona this
year by residents was announced by
the Chamber Of Commerce.
The contest will officially open on
June | and will close on September
30, after the vacation season ends, SO
that everyone will have an oppoftunl-
ty to enter the summers pictures. 1t
will be open to all residents OF the
state who arc not professional photo
graphels, and any photograph of q
scenic nature taken anywhere in the
state. this year may be entered. Con-
testants also will be allowed to enter
as many photographs as they desire
This summer will be the third year
that the statewide contest has been
conducted by chambers of commerce
of the state, and the Arizona IN
dustlial Congress will cooperate as
before IN the collection of pictures For
submission to judges and IN other
details Also as before four cash
prizes will be awarded for the best
pictures submitted, first prize being
$50, second, S25, third SIS and fourth
SO.
Two important changes, of interest
to all contestants, will be made in the
rules this year, the chamber announ-
ced. The first is that Judging will be
in the hands of central committee
instead OF a larger committee with
members scattered throughout the
state, and this will result III the
prizes being awared within short
time after the competition closes,
instead Of some weeks later as was
the case last year and the year before.
This speeding up of the judges de-
cisions should add materially to the
popularity of the contest.
The second change is in regard to
the rule requiring that negatives Of
films must be entered with all
pictures submitted for the contest
While the fact that one of the main
purposes of the contest is to bring
to light new pictures suitable for use
in state publicity and advertising
work makes it essential that negatives
be turned in so that additional prints
may be made, this rule has been modi-
fled this year so that entrants will
only be asked to lend their negatives
the Industrial Congress for few
days. III other words, though the
negatives must be entered with the
pictures, they must be returned within
a week or ten days instead of being
kept until the close of the contest.
This change is expected to be of
much greater convenience to con-
testants, as it is felt many amateur
photographers refrained from enter
ing the two former contests because
they did not wish to lose the use of
their films for any long period, and
some perhaps because they feared
their negatives would be lost. Con-
sidering that not one film or print
has been lost in either OF the former
contesst, and that negatives now will
be returned so promptly, this objec-
ton has ben entirely removed.
Detailed rules for the contest will
be available 1T the chamber of COM
merce in a short time, it was an-
nounced, and pictures may be entered
through the chamber at any time
from now until the end of September.

The Smoki People
Prescott June II

Prescott, Ariz., May 19-Night
will fall and the fight of the sun be
replaced by artful moon glow this
year when the Smoki people dance.
Making two important changes in a
pageant celebration which now has
six wears of success behind it, the
SmOki people on June will enter
a new field of spectacle-making when
they dance for the first time the Sun
down Ceremonies" instead of their
customary series of afternoon dances.
Moreover, the date has been changed
from the second Friday to the second
Saturday in June, thus breaking a
custom that has been advertised all
over the nation for the annual OPEN
ing of Northern Arizona's vacation
season.
Because the Smoki dancers achieved
great acclaim in the annual presenta-
ton of the Ceremonial Snake Dance
here during the years that followed
their premier in May, 1921, and be-
cause something new and startling IN
the way of pantomimic pageantry was
deemed necessary, the mana cement
this yearshas chosen q program adap-
ted to night showing. 1t consists Of:
/. An Enchanting Prologue.
2. The Serene Moon Chant.
3. Dzilkiji, the Fire Dance.
4. The Ceremonial Snake Dance.
Besides these rites, selected from
among thousands of dramatic prayer
inovations known to the Smoki and
other peoples Of the Great Southwest
there will be program of the grave
and thought-compelling SmoEi COM
edy-clowning that is SO unlike the
siap-stick associated with circus
clowns that it is amazing and provo
cative of as much meditation as mer-
riment.
Prescott has prepared this year as
never before to welcome summer visi-
tors. Smoki Day is but the beginning
of long series of conventions, celc-
brations and entertainments to last
the summer. For June II there viii
be a throwing open of arms to the
whole state with indications that not
only Arizona, but many other states
where the fame Of the Snoki pageant
ry has penetrated. will pour their
spectators into the Mile High City.

navian, also had his mind on his work
His exploit made an imperishablt
fairy tale, but Selma Lagerlof had tC
put in all the poetry. The Lindbergh
saga, which already includes poems
which would require two days to pass
a given point, has made America
happy with a new fairy tale, all its
own and, one may believe, quite as
enduring as any of this foreign out
put, in spite of the fact that this
winged youth can't sing. At least they
say he can't.
Aucassin, landing at lie Bourget
Field. would have tossed off a few
graceful dithyrambs, even before pre-
senting his letters of introduction, and
the Minnesangers would have relayed
them down through the centuries. II
there is ever a break in the smother
of high hats around Lindbergh, some
enterprising city editor may send in Il
man to find out what the boy thinks
of these past performances. The bet
ting would be on Nils as model,
rather than Aucassin.
An excited little tabloid blew Itself
through tin horn today-the only cas-
ualty so far-and out of the wreck
came a firSt-rate poem about Llnd

tug Jennie Lee, tossed off another
which isn't so bad. The sooty little
Jennie Lee is in the marine parade
today. All her brass gadgets are

WOMAN GREETS FLYER
IN TRIO OF CAPITALS
Miss Tracy Copp of Federal Educa'
tional Board Tells of Paris
and London.

Greeting Col. Lindbergh in Paris
in London and in Washington was
the unique experience of Miss Tracy
Copp of the Federal Educational
Board, who is a guest at the Grace
Dodge Hotel.
Miss Copp was guest in the hotel
in Paris where reservations had been
made for Lindbergh.
1.-THE night of his arrival when
bulletins came in of his approach, -"
she said today, excitement became at
fever heat, and a special guard OF
police was sent to protect the hotel.
It was finally necessary to close the
iron gates at the entrance, because of
the great throngs crowding outside
the hotel and only those identified by
the management were admitted.
1.-THE first modest statement, I am
Charles Lindbergh,' won every ones
heart"
Many people constantly spoke to her,
she said, knowing that she was an
American. On a train going into
London she told of a typical Incl
dent which occurred. A woman came
up to her and said 81 want TO shake
hands with you and congratulate you
on the wonderful achievement of your
compatriot."

"But with 1t all, don't forget the
veterans. Don't forget the things
they did in war. At that time feats
were done that were overshadowed by
the immensely of the war itself, but
which overshadow any peace-time &C.
complishments.
"And 1 think that right now Is
good time to remember them and what
they did instead of only what is being
done at present"
New Burst Of Applause.
Lindbergh's short but earnest
thank you' was a signal for a new
outburst Of applause, and while the
audience gathered in the little dell
continued in it's ovation and climbed
upon benches to better vantage points
the flyer walked among the disabled
veterans, clasping each one by the
hand. His face was serious and yet
it bore his famous kindly smile. In
greeting the veterans the aviator was
joined by his mother, who also pressed
the hand of each wounded soldier be-
fore her.
The greeting over, Col. Lindbergh
climbed out of the little valley amid
the cheers OF hospital attendants. pa
tents and the crowd of persons who
abandoned their automobiles to follow
Indy to the dell. With the other
members of his party the flyer
boarded his automobile for the drive
to Boiling Field.

LINDBERGH HACKERS
