ERUPTION is FORECAST
Volcanic Disturbances Are Held

Ry Science Scrrics

FLAGSTAFF. Ariz. Aug. 10
Volcanic outbursts may occur some
day in northern Arizona, in the re-
gion Of the San Francisco peaks. a
group Of lofty and well-known
mountains. A study of a number of
eruptive centers in this area by
Harold S. Cotton. of the museum
OF northern Arizona, strongly sug-
gests that these we're formed by
successive outbursts, separated by
fairly long time intervals.
Recent earthquakes in northern
Arizona seem to have centered I'M

Cotton interprets this as evidence
that the volcanism of this region
is not yet dead.

To-day,s Sport Parade

Cadgley talk. John was the horse we had down home, years ago. and a good old girl she was. People always wondered why we called John John, since she was a she. But nobody ever succeeded in ex- blaming. It was always my secret hunch that Johns name was orig inally Joan, or, maybe Josephine, the monicker got garbled some how.
 The point is, however, that John never gave Q tinker's fetlock how we held our hands when we were astride her. As I recall, most of the time we grabbed her name, gave her boot in the ribs and let her sail.
 It's A Gift.
 But these high-powered nags at the horse show, according to Cad- gley, can tell when a rider has an erroneous hold without so much as turning around to look.
 The technique is not acquired merely bp sitting in front of a fire and practicing holding the hands out. The expert has to go through a rigorous course. Few riders, it is said, who have never had jumping experience, know how to hold their hands correctly. And the hands must stay put while the beast is galloping, trotting, even bucking. No jiggling or bobbling around, or ones honor is befouled and one won't be seen thereafter mingling in the upper crust.
 All of this seems sad to me. A mans honor, after all, Is a tihng to be cherished as well as defend- ed. It is unfair to place too much importance on the position of the dukes while in the saddle. Old John I want you to know, never in all her life turned around and bit a hunk out of me because didn't have my paws in place.
 However, people who go to the horse shows seem to like that sort of thing. And you can't argue with people who go to horse shows. All I can say is that even in riding a bicycle, there was time when I could free-wheel without holding. Even with my hands in my pockets That's art.
