OAKLAND MAKES
GROWING SALES

The Oakland Motor Car company,
which advanced from the position OF
ninth in point OF sales volume during
1926 to fifth place in 1927, has ex-
panded its already extensive sales
organization to handle an expected
further sales increase during 1923, it
is announced by w. r. Tracy, vice
president in charge of sales.
The most important development so
far has been the appointment OF six
regional sales managers in key cities
to direct the % district offices sta
toned throughout the United States.
The present eastern and western
sales managers, W. B. Sawyer and
E. M. Lubbock, each has supervision
over three OF the regional managers.
All of the district sales offices are
being expanded and moved to larger
quarters and the number OF repre-
sentativeS travelling among the deal
ets from the district offices has been
increased. Many more dealers are
being added to the present total OF
more than 4,300 which now is nearly
five times the size OF the dealer
organization in 1925.

CHANGE LIGHT
FIXTURES and
ADD new PAINT

When the painters and decorators
have completed their work in the
new quarters Of the chamber of
commerce at $40 Eleventh street
the room will present decidedly
changed appearance. The colors will
be light shades and the lighting
fixtures have been completely alter
ated, new and attractive ones being
installed and the old wiring being
taken down.
The rooms still have to be
changed somewhat by the carpenter,
but that will not require great
deal of time. When it has all been
completed the Douglas chamber will
have quarters as good or better
than any it has ever enjoyed.
The work of Secretary George B
Doubleday will now be directed to
getting out new supply of litera-
iture and other records, work he
has already beguns When he took
up preparation of copy yesterday
for some of the literature he had
to call on one of his friends who
makes it a rule to keep files OF
Isuch things to get one of the for
mer folders that the chamber had
issued.

ARIZONA GROWS,
HOTELS A hint
OF PROSPERITY

Arizona bankers will meet this
year in Globe for their annual con-
vention, according to John 3. Crowell,
cashier of the Bank of Douglas, who
returned yesterday from Phoenix where
he attended meeting of the executive
committee which had charge of Sc
lecting the convention city. The ex-
act date is not fixed but the date
tentatively agreed upon is Friday and
Saturday, Oct 1921. That quite lik-
ly will be the date used.
at is an interesting observation IN
connection with the selection OF the
convention city for our state meeting
that there is much keener interest
among the cities of the state than
there was no longer than half dozen
years ago." said Mr. CroWell. The
answer is simple. The cities of Ari-
zon2 are gradually being provided
with better hotel facilities and are get
ting so they can give proper quarters
to convention crowds. That also, re-
fleets another fact that it is well for
us to keep in mind. Hotels for con-
vention crowds alone would hardly be
a good investment but they are made
Douglas daily dispatch., 1928-02-12

good investments because of the tour
ist business that our weather and out
standing scenic beauties attract to us.
Some five or six years ago there
were three cities of the state that could
handle the crowd we brought to our
meetings. Now there are several times
three and they are all out in front
with a welcome hand to get us to visit
them. That is happy change because
it shows growth and prosperity well
distributed over Arizona.
eve had reports from all commit
tees and many letters which had come
to the association secretary that had
to be referred to the respective COM
mittees for consideration. Reports
from all committees were encouraging
" progressive. The agricultural COM
mittee's report was one of the best we
have ever had Our agricultural in
terests are possibly in as good posi-
zion right now as they have ever been.
Broadly speaking, the indications from
all over the state as seen in the re-
ports of the several banking commit
tees point to favorable year for Ari-

FILM WORK OFF
UNTIL WEATHER
GETS BRIGHTER

Work on the new film by the
Fox Film corporation which had
been scheduled to be started ut
Douglas this week will not beCin
for q week or 10 days. In fact it
has been poo tponed until the
weather is such as to warrant the
belief there can be continuous per-
formance between the start and fin
ish Of the work. The business
agent for the corporation, Il. r..
Goux, and Ed OFearing, one Of the
directors, who have been in Doug
las the last week making the pre-
liminary plans for the appearance
Of the company, returned yesterday
to Hollywood TO await notification
OF Commerce that the weather is
favorable and the outlook is for a
continuance Of that sort.
Plans were all ready foA the work
to begin tomorrow morning and but
for the weather conditions Of Fri
day the company would have ar
rived in Douglas late today. Every
thing else was standing at taw and
ready to shoot, according to the
representatives of the Fox corpora
ton. They haG found things much
to their liking and had completed
the deal for all the railroad equip
ment that was necessary to be used
and had everything. else taken care
of when because OF the little storm
that came up, they decided to put
off the work for q period.
1t is the statement OF the repre-
sentativcs that il will take any
where from four to six days to
make the pictures they will need in
which railroad equipment is re-
quired. They have contracted for
two co mp ept freight equipments
and one passenger train to be used
in making the film, these being
exclusive Of the transportation need
They will use the trains in the val
lev. and also in the vicinity of
McNeal and at Bernardino, condi-
tions at the stations named being
especially suited to the needs of the
picture, it is said.
The contract with the Cailroad
company calls for complete crews
of the trains used and it is fore
casted that it will likely take six
days to make the picture.
In addition to the railroad scenes
there will be scenes taken in the
mountains, one phase OF the screen
ing being that to eSmade in Rhyo-
lite park where it is estimated it
will take approximately two weeks.
There will also be some scenes
laid in the open valley exclusive Of
those that are made in connection
with the train, it is understood.
The company that will be brought
from Hollywood will include about
40 to SO persons and considerable
livestock The star of the picture
is Rex King, a new find in movie
land and opposite him will be seen
Miss Lillian Gilmore. The film will
be made under the direction of
f. L. Hough, one of the leading
directors in the Fox corporation.

DOUGLAS GETS
TO SEE SUNNY A
MUSICAL COMEDY

Carrying 80 people in four Pull
man cars and requiring three bag
gage cars to handle the special
scenery and effects, the famous mu-
sical comedy, Sunny" will come to
Douglas for one performance. This
will bring to Douglas one of the
biggest productions that has ever
been offered to the theatre patrons
and one of the attractions that
stands out i'm bold relief as the out
standing success of the last two
years.
The production will be seen here
on Thursday, March 1. and unless
the management of the Grand has
guessed wrong, there will be the
biggest crowd out to see it that has
ever witnessed a show here. The
visit of this stellar attraction to
Douglas is an event in theatrical
history here. The show has been
seen only in the larger centers and
not all of them have seen it or will
see it, Douglas gets the chance for
two reasons. 1t has the good for
tune to be booked through an
agency that controls the big things
and there is favorable railroad
routing to Douglas that also helps.
/ The show is not brought here
without some effort on the part of
the local management, even with
those favorable factors, and it was
only after an assurance that the
house would show a certain return
if the show was brought here that
it was finally placed for Douglas.

Finger Prints Get
History Of Crimes
Burglar, Committed

Deputy Sheriff o. A. Ash brought
forward yesterday additional evi
dence of fingerprinting for the
identification of criminals. Some
weeks ago Ash, took the prints OF
several men arrested at Wilcox and
charged with burglary. Among these
was a man giving the name of Jack
Hays.
Hays went before the superior
court ard plead guilty to bur-
fiary charge and was sentenced to
the penitentiary. Ash sent his fin
gerprints to the bureau of identifi-
cation and yesterday received the
report on them.
The report says that Hays served
two different sentences in Texas on
felony charges and that on both
occasions he gave different names.
Ash relates that Hays told him he
had never been arrested before and
had never had his fingerprints
taken.

BY SOL METZGER.

Golfers in sections that have been
visited by almost continuous rams
during the early part OF tins sum,
mer are having more than the usuai
amount of difficulty playing out OF
the rough. The growth d both long
grasses and weeds has been eXcep-
tional. The resulting mat OF rough
is far thicker and heavier than
usual. Digging a ball out of such
lies is problem few have been able
to meet.
Fred Brand, professional at the
Allegheny Country Club near Pitts
burgh, has a stock remedy for this
shot of great value. Brand Is
tremendous driver. Many think his
ability to get out of such lies rests
with his strength. But it is due to
right methods.
Brand advises one to forget about
distance on such a shot, though 1t
is surprising what distance results.
Fred grips the mashie with wrists
loose, with the first two fingers and
thumb OF each hand, picks the club
up pretty much with the right and
then swings it through with all pos
sible wrist action. You cut down
straight back of the ball when the
right takes the club back, but your
added wrist motion accelerateS the
head at such speed that fine re-
coyery results. Keep your head down
all through the shot.
Sol Metzger has prepared fine
illustrated leafiet on "Slicing," which
he would be pleased to send to any
