BEN H. YAECER, PIONEER
RESIDENT OF ARIZONA,
DIES AT PHOENIX HOME

BENJAMIN Horton Yaeger, so, United
States commissioner in Phoenix Tor
the past year and half and widely
known Arizona pioneer, died suddenly
at his Phoenix home Friday night.
Heart failure was assigned as cause
of his death. He had been in failing
health for several months, and had
been unable to remain at his office ex-
cept for an hour or two daily during
the week preceding his death.
Mr.. Yaeger and his family had
moved that day into home pur-
chased at 80 East Hoover.
Mr.. Yaeger was sitting on his front
porch reading a paper, according to
Mrs. Yaeger and their daughter, Miss
Bonita, when he arose to enter the
house. Miss Bonita heard him call to
her from within, and she entered to
find him in the bathroom, crumpled
over the side of the bathtub. Friends
of the family just arriving for an eve
ming call, rushed in and made efforts
to revive Mr.. Yaeger, but when a
physician arrived he was pronounced
dead.
Mrs. Yaeger, a member of the Eng
lish faculty of Phoenix Union high
school, returned to Phoenix Wednes-
day from Chicago where she had been
attending a summer course in Chicago
university. She had been summoned
Lby her daughter, Miss Bonita, after a
physician had told the daughter that
Mr.. Yaeger was suffering from a
weakened heart.
Another daughter, Miss Martha, and
son, Horton, were at Oak Greek, near
Flagstaff, visiting an uncle, Harlow
Yaeger of Flagstaff.
Other relatives surviving are II. &.
Yaeger Of Denver, nephew, who hap
pened to be in Phoenix on business;
three other nephews, Harry, Lewis
and Paul Yaeger, a niece, Miss Mary
Yaeger, and their mother, Mrs. j. =.
Raub, all of Phoenix; brother, Gil
bert Jaeger of Helena, Ark; third
brother, Irving Yaeger of Litchfield,
| H., and sister, Mrs. P. A. Cowan OF
| Vicksburg, Miss.
Commissioner Yaeger was the cid
est son of II. C. Yaeger, pioneer Arl-
iona sheepman and farmer who died
two years ago in Phoenix. The COM
missioner was born in st. Louis. DE
came to Phoenix in 1894 to be en-
ployed in the post office there. He
was manager Of the old Hotel Adams
until that building, then the foremost
hosiery of Arizona, burned May IL,
1910. Subsequent business ventures
| included the sheep industry, the hay
and grain business at Glendale, and
activity as cotton dealer throughout
the Salt River Valley.
Funeral services were held Monday
afternoon at the chapel of H. M. Maus

WILL BROADCAST FROM
BOTTOM GRAND CANYON

For the first time, radio transmits
sion is to be tried from the bottom of
the Grand Canyon. Early in Septem-
Der, five boats will breast the turbu-
lent tide of the Colorado river at Lees
Ferry, Arizona. A portable radio
transmitting set, capable of sending
both telephone and telegraph mes
sages, will be part of the equipment
on one of the craft.
Reports of the expedition under the
leadership of Major LaRue, of the
United States geological survey, will
be radioed from the canyon to a mo-
bile radio truck located at Navajo
Mountain, Ariz. Eight men will ac-
company Major LaRue on the diff
cult expedition.
Specially constructed boats, about
| 20 feet in length, and decked over
with the exception of a small cockpit,
have been built at Wilmington, Calf,
for the explorers, who will go into the
Grand Canyon to describe the scenic
wonders of that marvel of nature.
The exploration party will risk death,
for the next opening of the canyon
after leaving Lees Ferry is 400 miles
down the Colorado. The boats will
proceed to Yuma, ArlZ., the trip to
occupy from two to three months
time.
This will be Major LaRue's second
voyage down the Grand Canyon. In
1924, he and small party succeeded
in surviving the perils of the Colorado,
but the 1927 expedition is to be more
extensive. In certain sections of the
canyon, it will be necessary to keep
moving night and day, for there are
large stretches where the canyon
walls rise sheer out of the river, pro-
viding no beach space or lodges on
which to rest. Sweep oars will con-
troll the boats and the Colorado river
current will provide the necessary
motive power.

umphs in amateur golf was achieved
in a pelting rain at Minneapolis Sat
urday when the youngster from At
lanta won the national championship
by defeating old Chick Evans OF Chi

class by himself. Bobby's victory
over Chick in the final round came as
a climax to a week in which he
smashed all records for American
championship competition by playing
four of his rounds in aggregate OF Il
strokes better than par.

ROAD COMMISSIONERS
SAY NO TEMPE SPAN

Temples protest against the state
highway budget is foredoomed to fail
ure, it is reported.
Tempe wants new bridge across
the Salt river, to replace the present
superannuated and inadequate struc-
ture. And on that subject the budget
was silent. A partial survey and the
preparation of plans for new bridge
probably will be completed this COM
ing winter, but no hope was held out
to delegation from Tempe that the
budget can be torn down to include
for this year new item of approx
mately $450,000.
