In actual play success depended
on the location of the spade K,
an even money chance, but prior

of Rotary Program

Rev. Earl M. Ward took charge
of the Rotary program In place or
Art Wynne, and gave the mem
bers a merry hour Of fun when he
made each member talk for one
minute on the vocation Of one or
his buddies. Pres. Urton acquitted
himself in a very able manner in
talking about the vocation Of Phil
Claridge as lawyer. He said that
he was sure that Phil, now that
the time was fast approaching
when he would be married, would
be- able to devote his time to the
practise of law instead OF making
frequent trips between here ana
Stafford. Due to a bidding contest
which developed among the
Rotarians the Club was some $3.so
richer when the question was
raised as to whether or not west
Kirby would sing. West finally
sang the song "Clementine" which
resulted in a riot. The out of town
visitors were Harold Clark, Phoe-
nix Rotarian, and L. E. Wagner OF

Softball Season
Here Again

Local softball fans and players
will be interested to know that
the State Softball Association has
devised a plan whereby it will be
possible to send State champions
in the various classes to various
softball tournaments throughout
the country. OF particular interest
to local fans Is the fact that the
Glass B state champion will be
sent to a San Francisco, California
tournament, site Of the Treasure
Island Worlds Fair.
The Coolidge Boosters, colorfui
softball aggregation, has always
finished among the best Class B
teams in the State, and they will
be regarded as among the favorite
teams to cop the championship
and a trip to Treasure Island.
The Associations plan is to
collect 5 per cent of all paid ad-
mission at the various parks
sponsoring teams. Coolidge, Ari-
zona, stands a good chance Of be-
ing the site chosen for at least one
of the tournaments, since the SOFT
ball Commissioner advises that
4 the "Park that turns in the great
est amount of percentage will be
4 the probable site of the various
4 tournaments" This town stands a
good chance to land tournament
because it is a softball minded
! town. and with the added incentive
of the publicity that results from
the sponsoring of a good team
this year should be a bang-up
wear at Coolidge.
The Softball Commissioner
further quotes as follows: The
teams affiliated must turn in a
Roster of Is or less men by June
18th. They will be allowed to
make four changes by July 18th.
After that time no changes will
be permitted until after the state
plavoff." This means that the Coo
lidge Boosters must be organized
within a very short time, and all
interested players are urgently re-
uuested to come out and try for
the team early-Louie Gastellum.

Paul Hobby Home
Partly Destroyed
By Fire Monday

Last Monday noon a fire alarm
called the fire department to the
Paul Hobby home which was blaz-
ing furiously from some unknown
cause. The fire started on the
service porch back of the house,
and was not noticed until it had a
good start; but within an incredible
short time our Volunteer Fire De-
partment was in action, and with
quick systematic supervision the
fire was under control and extin-
guished.
Considerable damage was done
by the fire to the home which was
fully covered by insurance we
understand.
The Fire Department labored un-
der great difficulty with no fire
plugs handy and only chemicals
and small hose to fight fires with.
Action should be taken by the
Citizens to assist these fire
fighters with proper equipment. 1t
is essentially one of the most ism
portant requirement to a town. In
a short 90 minutes Ben Jarratt and
]. C. Jayne were first to be on
the job fighting the fire to get it
under control. Mrs. Paul Hobby is
very grateful to all those who
assisted her at the fire and wishes
to express her thanks to everyone.
