Failure of tie county authorities to
enforce territorial :s'blue laws" against
public dance halls and laxness in
bringing offenders of the Volstead
law to account is being charged in a
report made to United States Judge
F. G. Jacobs by the federal grand
jury at Phoenix
Following reading Of the report in
open court, committee from the
grand jury appointed by Foreman
Lloyd D. Christy called on Superior
Judge NJ. t. Phelps to request that
"the county grand jury be called at
the earliest convenience for the pur-
pose of investigating certain matters
coming to the attention of this grand
jury over which the federal govern
ment does not have jurisdiction and
which matters are of vital import
ance."
Two sections of the Arizona penal
code retained in statutes from terri
torial days making it misdemeanor
to conduct public dance house were
brought to the attention of enforce
ment officers by the federal grand
jury in its report.

IN THE WORLD OF SPORT
WALTER JOHNSON'S WHEEL CHAIR COBB'S WARNING
SMALL TOWN GIRL ATHLETES
By PHILIP MARTIN


New York. = Walter johnson is
much like the late Christy Mathew
son. He is still the pitching ace OF
the Washington Senators and despite
20 years of service still hangs on tic
that title. The competitive spirit is
strong within him. Next to native
honesty no characteristic has more
worth in play or in work, in sportz
or in business.
Competitive spirit is born of the
desire to excel and rs nourished by
application, hard work, unselfish devo-
tion to cause, initiative and cour-
age. Clark Griffith tells US that Wal
ter Johnson spends ONE HOUR of
earnest practice each day pitching a
baseball from his ARM CHAIR. Wal
ter, you know, has a fractured ankle.
That is one of the most striking ex-
amples of loyalty to team and faith
fulness that has come to my attention
in years. 1t should be lesson for all
men who like to cali themselves
"sportsmen."
The number of new golfers this sea-
son will be larger than ever. Now is
a good time to organize Hook-of-
the-Month Club.
Ty Cobb was fined s1OO for his fight
with Umpire Frank Wilson of the
National League.
That shows that officials believe
Cobb was wrong and Wilson right in
the setto they had on the exhibition
tour in Florida.
1t is very easy for fan to sit in a
stand and howl his blinking head off
at an umpire when he elects a tenn
peramental star from the diamond.
There were many who believed Frank
Wilson was nothing short of brother
of Jesse James. Now the truth is
leaking out. Wilson was bounded out
of the American League by Cobb
and Cobb is notoriously nasty in his
treatment of officials. He has bull
lied his last ump, it seems. From now
on the fans are hep.
Speaking Of cut-ups, we know a
head surgeon who is so comica1 he
has all his patients in stitches.
Girls in the cities are offered a
valuable tip by H. S. Shroup, coach of
the girls team at Caldwell High
school, Caldwell, Kans., if they'll only
take it. Shroup is strong advocate
of walking and he asserts that girls
in the small towns are healthier be-
cause they walk more.
Small town girls make better bas-
ketball players, according to Shroup,

ANOTHER SHOPPING TRIP

Joyce left her apartment early the
next day. She had determined TO
announce her signation that very
morning to Miss Scanlon, and try
to be relieved from duty at the END
of the week.
AS she entered the lobby. she saw
Mrs. Fitz. Simons bearing down on
her.
"Joyce Darling" cried that worthy
woman, stopping and almost en-
bracing the girl, come here, want
to talk to you"
She led the way to lounge IN
the lobby and pulled Joyce down be-
side her.
You're looking thin and pale"
she began. "You need a touch of
the country"
Spring fever, I guess said Joyce
indifferently.
"And the cure for spring fever is
a big dose Of the spring." declared
Mrs. Fitz.Simons triumphantly. Now

Use me you'll fall in with It,"
I'D love to do anything l could

Joyce answered, remembering that
here was one person who had been
uniformly kind to her this winter.
That's right It's just what I
expected you to say, you dear
thing" Mrs. Fitz.Simons squeezed
joys hand. Some Of us are going

sport things?" she inquired of
the clerk who came to wait on her.
She was shown several dresses
and coats.
MY friend. Miss Helen Powers,
told me you have very pretty
green. May 1 see that?" she asked
presently.
Instant respect at the name Pow
ers' dawned in the clerks eyes.
Indeed, Mademoiselle," she said.
"Come in here and 1 will show you
our smartest models"
She led the way to a private show
room, lined with mirrors.
For an hour Joyce had an intoXi-
eating array of clothes and selected
three complete outfits. She could not
resist the green one Helen had men
toned, though the price had made
her gasp, and caused her inherited
Scotch caution to rear its head. She
bought a suit of fawn color to wear

and soft silk blouse to match. A
sturdy tweed skirt and an assert
ment of bright sweaters, a crushable
suede hat, and dazzling array of
sport stockings satisfied her love of
color. 1t was a very respectful clerk
who came back to the fitting-room
after telephoning Judge Perkins,
and promising her the things for the
following day.
Now for some evening Clothes"
Joyce thought, emerging into the
spring sunshine.
Some thing in black" she told
the clerk, remembering Carter's sug-
gestion for her. She chose a black
chiffon which billowed out softly
when she walked. There were green
and gold velvet flowers appliqued on
its skirt, and cluster of green
grapes with gold leaves on one
shoulder.
1T is very striking" the clerk
told her, admirinGly, as Joyce was
having it fitted.
Thrilled with the power to buy
what she liked, Joyce made a list
of things she wanted. There were

Joyce admitted. "I'll go in to see
some things. Thanks a lot, Nelly.
I'll see you Sunday"
Presently she was asking to see
Judge Perkins. I'm going shop

wouldn't be asking too much, Id
like to ask you for some money"
How much?" the judge smiled at
her. Her youth was infectious and
he often thought half sadly of the
daughter he had lost so tragically
many years before.
Il honestly don't know. Mrs. Fitz-
Simons is giving a house party out
at the Anvil Club next week and
has asked me to go. All the girls

And you thought you'd like to

gested.
Joyce nodded.
"Then suppose I just certify your
charge accounts wherever you want
to buy things, and you can pay the
bills next month after you've come
into your money"
How will do it?''
Give them my name as refer
ence, and when they call me about
your account I'll tell them it is

You're awfuIly good to me-"
