LEG FRACTURED IN COLLISION
Harold Austin Drives an Automobile
Into Side of Moving Freight Train

Harold Austin, aged 80 years. liv-
ing near Bridgeville was seriously in
jured and miraculously escaped death
Wednesday night about II o'clock
when he drove his automobile into the
side of a freight train which was
passing over the Main street crossing
in Bridgeville. His machine, a Ford
coupe, was completely wrecked When
he was dug from the debris it was
found his leg had been fractured at
the knee and he was cut and bruised
about the head and body. He was
rushed to the Marshall Hospital in
Milford and it was reported there
Thursday morning that he was resting
as easily as could be expected. Aus
tin was driving west on his way home
The freight train was going north. It
was in charge of Conductor Jester
and Engineman Hall A dense fog
at the time prevented Austin from
seeing very far ahead of his machine
and this is thought to have been the
cause of the crash There is a watch
man at the crossing but when north
bound trains pass he stands on the
other side of the track and Austin
could not see him. The automobile
struck the fourth car from the engine.
The occupant escaped being dragged
under the wheels. The machine was
rendered to Junk.

PHOENIX SETS NEW
BUILDING RECORD

With two months yet to go, the peak
building year record of Phoenix al
ready has been passed. For buildings
within the rather CONSTRUCTED civic
area the permits issued thus far in
1927 approximate $4,800,000, this to
be compared with the previous peak
of $4,524,000 in 1920.
A 100000 permit has been issued
the McGinty Construction company
for the main structure Of the Granada
theater, for which excavation has been
completed at Adams and Second ave-
nue.. The auditorium will seat 1000
and will be decorated lavishly.
Plans for financing $150,000 mar
ket have been approved by the Mari
copa county farm bureau. Washing
ton school district No. 6, northwest
of Phoenix, will spend $4,000 on an
addition.

Wickenburg Boy
Holds Up a Train

One of the most daring train hold
ups in the history of the southwest
occurred at the Wickenburg depot as
the train stopped to take on water one
evening last week. Details have just
now been given to the press.
The hold-up occurred IN the presence
of the train crew, passengers and a
few townspeople, who looked on in
astonishment as the porter chased a
uniformed boy several blocks before
he caught him.
The cadet is we'll known to Flag
staff citizens, his parents having been
residents of this city for some years.
The youthful hold-up did not use a
gun or any other weapon to accom-
plish his feat of holding up train
for ten minutes.
He had been placed there by his
father to be transported to st. Johns
academy in Los Angeles, but at the
last minute decided that he must bid
his mother good bye once more. After
having started to bed he jumped off
the train, and with shoes and puttess
in hand, rushed madly down the street
followed by the excited porter. The
brakeman called frantically to the
flagman to "hold the train; one of
our passengers ran away" The
cadet was finally led back to the
scene of the hold-up and put aboard
by a triumphant but tired porter
Next day word was received by his
mother of his safe arrival at St.
Johns and that he was very well
satisfied with his life there. Who was
the cadet? You've guessed it, He
was none other than 10 10 Charlebois.

FAST TIME MADE IN
HARNESS RACES AT FAIR

The harness races of the Arizona
state fair, which opened at Phoenix
Monday, showed some of the fastest
time to be made on the coast this sea-
son.
Harry /, owned by George ]. Clan
mini of San Francisco, won the first
heat of the opening race, the 2:08 trot,
in 2:O6A. This is claimed to be the
fastest mile trotted by any horse in a
race on the Pacific coast this season.
Harry / easily outclassed the field and
won the race in straight heats.
Other winners were: Arden Road
owned by Mrs. ]. R. Williams of Stock
ton, Calf, winner Of the 2:25 pace in
2:O7. Harold G, owned by Ray An

LUMBERJACKS AND LOBOS
IN GRID CONTEST TODAY

coached in the art of defensive play
team that can match their wits with
the best in their class; can tackle hard
and block when they are supposed to
block-a team that has fight, punch
and power to play winning football.
1t is interesting to relate that in the
five games the Teachers have played
thus far this season their opponents
made only Is first downs. No team
has been able to get any closer TO
scoring than the 15-yard line. Loyola,
which suffered it's first defeat since
1925 against Gonzaga university last
week, made the only threat of getting
by the locals white-chalk mark.
The Lumberjacks will encounter a
heavier line than their forward wall
but this is nothing new in the lives
of the local squad as this feature has
been outstanding in practically every
team Coach Lavik's lads have been
called upon to meet this year.
Coach johnson Of the Lobos comes
from the old school along with Lavik
in that he contends the line is the
most important cog of football ma
chine.
"Give me line that is thoroughly
grounded in the fundamentals and
rudiments of the game, and ! can al
ways get players to carry the pump
kim" is the favorite remark Of Coach
Lavik.
While Lavik has been busy develop
ing strong defense his gang of ball
toters have shown up brilliantly. No
better combination of fleet-footed
shifty backfield men--Captain Hoddy
Stevens, Ike Zaner, "Gallopin' Nose"
Cooper, George Pear, Art Brimhall,
Sammy Rogalsky, Bill Holt, j. 3. Eas-
ley-can be found on any team in the
southwest this season. Zaner is the
most fleet of foot, but George Pear is
the lad that makes the crowd go into
commissions when he carries the pig
skin.

large number of entries and the keen

State to Keep Up
Approach Road

Arizona, through its highway de-
partment, will take over the main
enance of the new $6,000,000 approach
road to the Grand Canyon at the ex-
piration of two years after its con-
struction by the government, the state
highway commission decided Tuesday
morning.
The commission made known its
decision following the appearance of
Senator Carl Hayden, who asked if
the commission would agree to main
tain the road after its construction
as federal project. An interval of
two years after construction, during
which the road will be kept up by
the government and forest service
is allowed before the state takes over
the duty of keeping it in condition.

Museum Gets Old
Press That Printed
First Phoenix Paper

Frank T. Alkire presented the Arr
iona Museum at its last board meet
ing, with the Pioneer Hand Printing
Press of Phoenix, upon which is the
following framed label:
"Col James II. McClintock in the
History of Arizona states that in JAM
uary, 1878, Charles E. McClintock,
]. ]. Gosper (then Secretary Of the
Territory of Arizona) and C. w. Beach
founded the Salt River Valley Herald,
a weekly, which was edited by Charles
E. McClintock. In 1879 the name of
the paper was changed to Phoenix
Herald and was published semi
weekly; later in the year it was issued
daily. In 1882 N. A Morford pur-
chased the paper, issued it as a daily
until May, 1889.
"This Washington hand press was
brought into the Territory of Arizona
some time in 1878 by freight wagon
through Yuma. This press was after
wards displaced by a cylinder and
moved throughout the state until
1922, when it was purchased by this
company.
"Shortly before N. A. Morford's
death he made careful examination
of this old press and identified it as
the press used in the publication of
the Phoenix Herald.
'This press is presented to the Ari-
IONA Museum by the Manufacturing
Stationers, Inc, as a worthy relic of
the early days of newspaperdom in
Phoenix and the card accompanying
it was printed on this press.

Mr.. Alkire purchased the press in
Stafford in 1922 and has been preserv-
ing it for the benefit of the future
generations to come to Arizona who
will see in it both chapter in the
history of our state and link in the
evolution of the printing press.

splendidly on the defense.
The forward wall is built around
the rangy center, Detloff, who is with
out doubt the most redoubtable pivot
man who has donned the moleskins
this year. He is fast and has lots of
fight. He receives lots of help in
plugging and making holes from Aus
tim Gibbons and John Chiano, two
stellar guards.
Bat Allen and Lynn Pace are two
cogs in the machine that Coach Lavik
has taken a great deal of pride in de-
veloping along his style Of play. Lavik
likes tackles and likes 'em big. The
bigger they come the better he likes
'em. Both bows are natural born
fighters. They are possessed of SUI

COcOninO COunty's
Exhibit at Fair Is
Highly Praised
By NJ. E. Bemis
Agricultural Secretary Phoenix
Chamber of Commerce


Phoenix, Nov. 9.-(Special to The
Sun)-All Coconino county has right
to be proud of the display Of soil prod
ucts which have been brought to the
state fair this year by Mrs. Myrtle
Perrigo, county fair commissioner
assisted by County Agent Gould.
Coconino county enjoys the distinc-
ton of being the only county in Ari-
IONA which has practically no irri-
gated land. All the splendid products
shown in the tastefully decorated
booth of Coconino county are grown
by dry farm methods although some
of these must necessarily compete
with products grown under irrigation.
The potato exhibit is unusually
good with large number of varieties
of excellent quality. While several
other counties are showing good quail
ity of products, it is freely predicted
that Coconino county will walk away
with a good share of the prizes The
advertising value of this exhibit to
Coconino county is beyond estimate as
thousands of our state visitors throng
the state fair grounds.
DIR. Oscar C. Bartlett, state ento-
mologist, who is superintendent of the
agricultural and horticultural build
ing, after looking over the entries
from the eight counties which have
made complete county exhibits states
that entries are more complete and
the quality of the products are much
superior to those ever shown at any
fair in the past ten years.
Noteworthy among the exhibits of
unusual quality are the apples from
the counties in the higher elevations
of the state; potatoes from several
northern counties, the most complete

holes in the opposing lines consistent
ly big enough to drive wagons
through.
There are no comparative scores to
base any predictions on as neither
club has met the same teams. Lavik
did not send any Buffalo Bills" to
scout the Lobos and it is not known
whether Johnson is acquainted with
the style of ioffense he will have to
encounter.
Lavik will probably start Captain
Hoddy Stevens, Ike Zaner, Cooper and
Brimhall in the backfield with J. B..
Easley, Bat Allen, John Chiano, Oct
loft, Gibobns, Pace and Homer Allen
on the, line.
Lavik took along two full teams so
will have plenty of reserve to call on
should he cd them.
