MAN FINED FOR
NOT I STOPPING.
FOR FIRE TRUCK

Failure to stop his machine and pull
to the curbing when he heard fire
truck approaching caused James Snei-
der, a truck driver, a draw $5 fine
at police court Thursday morning.
After hearing the case, Judge w. G..
Jack issued warning that all persons
who in any way interfere with the
firemen while on their way to fire
will be punished to the full extent of
the law.
Sneider was ordered into court We'd
nesday afternoon by Chief of Police
Percy Bowden, who stated that Snei-
der was driving down G avenue and
looking back at an approaching fire
truck without making any effort to
turn to the curbing, as required by
the city ordinance. Sneider was given
only the minimum fine because his
case was the first of the kind brought
before the court.
ut has only been short time since
valuable fire truck was wrecked
and the lives of two firemen endan-
gered I'M case of this kind, when a
car drove across the street directly in
front of a fire apparatus Judge Jack
stated Regardless of the danger in-
volved, the loss of a few seconds may
mean the loss of lives and property in
fire, and it is the duty of every citi-
zen to keep out of the way of the fire
trucks"
Judge Jack quoted the city ordinance
governing this, as follows
Section 20. It shall be the duty of
every person driving vehicle on the
public streets of said city, upon the
alarm of fire being given and the ap-
proach of the city's fire apparatus,
Immediately to drive said vehicle to
the nearest curb on its right, there to
remain until said fire apparatus has
passed or apprised that said apparatus
i is passing on another street and no
such driver shall attempt to overtake
or drive ahead of any of said fire APP
paratus on it's way to fire.
| Section %. 1t shall be unlawful for
any vehicle other than the fire appar-
atus of the city to approach nearer
than 200 feet from any building on
fire, or any of the fire apparatus used
| in fighting such fire, until the same
| is reported by the fire siren to be ex-
tinguished.

The final game of tn eseason with

remaining on the schedule. Bisbee has
a strong team yet even though they
lost six players at mid-year while
Douglas lost only one player. Hargis.
Crouch, Shafer, Gutierrez, VercelliNo
and Wittenau form fast working
combination.
Douglas must win all three remain
ing games to win the championship
this season.
A large number of fans journeyed
to Bisbee last evening to witness the
Badger-Puma clash. The game was
fast and while large number of
fouls were called the officiating was
fair. The fouls were mostly for "hack-
ing and guarding from the rear.
The Badgers made ten field goals on
the Puma guards while the Bulldogs
held the Badgers to five goals indi-
eating that the checking of the local
quintet is we'll up to par with the

agreed upon under bantamweight
championship conditions, as Taylor
is recognized as the titleholder In
Illinois and several other states. The
New York boxers manager, Sam
Goldman, tonight demanded that the
weight be fixed at the title limit,
11S pounds, instead of 12O, and Tay-

up a championship belt, and Long
agreed to risk his protege's claim
to the title.

Rosenberg, the titleholder, then was
called off Rosenberg refused to
try to make 118-pound weight and
refused to put up a forfeit to insure
