GKEATERVlLLE, Ar1Z., Mar.
7-ExplOration and development
of the Pipe Line and Santa Rita
placerS in the center Of the
historic Greaterville placer area
has been started under the di-
rection of E. E. MaillOt, mining
engineer of Salt Lake City,
Utah, according to Miles M.
Carpenter, field engineer for
the Arizona Department of
Mineral Resources. The Great
erville district is in sc-ltheast-
ern Pima County, at the east
ern foot of the Santa Rita
Mountains.
According to records of the Ari
zona Bureau of Mines, placer gold
Was discovered in the Greaterville
district in 1874 by A. Smith. From
1875 to 1878 the placers were work.
ed by 200 or more men. The vir-
gin gravels are said to have been so
rich that each man recovered $40
or more naily by rocker with water
packed in for four miles by burro
ann retailed at about cents a
gallon.
BY 1880 the richer gravels were
work over and activity thereafter
declined until in 1886 work prac-
tically ceased. However, the de-
pc,sits have been worked inter-
mittently since then and mug
get worth 1923 was found in 1924.
WATER BIG PROBLEM
Water has always been the big
problem in the area. There is an
extensive acreage of ground that
carries from 40 to 60 cents in gold
per cubic yard at the present time,
but to handle it commercially would
require large amounts of water.
Shallow wells provide ample water
for domestic purposes but not much
for washing gravel.
Various systems of pile lines,
bitches, and dams have been used
by different operators in sluicing
and hydraulicking operations. since
1900. One company went so far as
to install a 1-ton steam shovel,
screens, and conical concentrat-
ing tank, but the pay dirt was not
rich enough to warrant the remov-
al of 16 or more feet of overbur-
den.
Besides the lack of abundant wa
ter and the presence of a large
overburden the clayey matriX of the
soil has been a hindrance to opera
tions. To recover the gold in Quen-
tity will probably require large
scale dredging or hydraulicking op-
erations, according TO Carpenter
Placer gold production of the
district in 1899 amounted to about
$780, The best recent year was
1885 when placer operations yielded
a little over $4,000.
Plans of the new operators have
not yet been revealed, but it is evil

BAD START:
GOOD ENDING

/ After weeks of preparation the
softball benefit series opener last
night turned out to be a fiasco.
There should be no excuse for
what happened-players and
managers were well aware of the
dates and pairings for the series.
Out of dozen or more players,
only five members of the Saw
yer's BARRIERS turned out in uni
form for their scheduled game
with the NavStas. Manager
Theodore Albury expressed his
regrets for being unable to put
full team on the field, but it
was brought out later that sew
eral of the players knew definite
ly yesterday morning they would
be unable to perform that night.
Consensus of opinion was to the
effect that Pedro Aguilar, in
charge of arrangements for the
series, should have been advised
Immediately. The second contest
could have been brought forward
and the opening program carried
out as planned.
The absent Barber players
should have taken into consid-
Grafton the time and effort ex-
pended to arrange the series. A
local sports enthusiast dug into
his pockets to put up the $500
deposit for installation of the cleo
trio meter at the park, tickets
were printed and sold and adj
vertisements announced the open
ing last night The players. are
not the only ones giving of their

CONCHS RESPOND
TO OFFUTT'S COACHING

Key West High School varsity
players ended the first-half of the
Island City Basketball League in
fourth place, but two members
of the club set the pace in scoring
and foul-shooting. All of which
speaks well for the coaching of
Johnny Offutt, the schools ath-
letic director.
Fast-stepping Anthony McMa-
hon, varsity forward, showed
'em how to drop the ball through
the hoop with his 81 field goals
and 16 foul shots. He averaged
1873 points for each of the ten
games played.
Tall, quiet Dewitt Roberts spe-
cialized in successfully sinking
charity losses. He came through
10 times out of a possible Is for
an average of 66.7.

END OF TRAIL

: Remember the days when there
were two brown terrors in pro-
fessional boxing2 Well. there's
only one left today. The first
was Joe Louis, heavyweight king,
and the second was Henry Arm
strong wefterweight, light
weight, and featherwei5ht cham
pion, at one time. The latter
hung up the gloves after his re-
cent return bout with Fritzie
Zivic, welterweight king. Our
story starts back in 1886, when
Henry came out of Los Angeles
and started his career. which
eventually gave him three worlds
championships and nationwide
fame.
Henry'S career is somewhat
similar to the case of the New
York Yankees. 1t was in 1886 that
the Yankees won the first pen
nant of their -four in arrow. 1t
was in SO that Hammerin' Henry
started battling his way steadily
to the top. The Yankees ruled
until 1910 when they lost the pen
nant to the Detroit Tigers. Arm

the World Series was PLAYED, Oc-

two he was To engage in with
Fritzie Civic. and lost his weller
weight crown in the same bout
Another all-time great in the
sporting world also faded from
the national sports scene at about
that time. He was the great
track star, Glenn Cunningham
who, after failing to win his last
big race. faded out of the picture
permanently.
Armstrong was beaten by Frit-
zie Zivic in October. as we have
already stated. and lost his vel

After Severe Rain
Storm At West Union
35 YEARS OLD
23OO Volt Wire
Broke and Caused
Sad Fatality

Herbert Linn, of West Union
was electrocuted, and George Mar
thaler almost suffered a similar
fate when they came into contact
with a live wire in front Of the
formers place of business follow
ing the severe rain storm of Fri
day evening.
Mr.. Linn stepped out of his place
of business at about 11:45 that
night to clear out a manhole to
keep the water from flooding his
basement. George Marthaler, also
of West Union, accompanied him.
In the darkness, Mr.. Marthaler
tripped over a broken electric wire,
which was thrown on Mr.. Linn's
arm. The 230O volts from the feed
er wire of the high tension line
threw him to the ground. In pull
ing Mr.. Linn several feet in at
tempt to extricate him from the
wire, Marthaler received severe
shocks. He then secured rake
and succeeded in pulling Mr.. Linn
away.
Mr.. Linn could not be revived
from the shock and was taken to
Osakis for medical treatment, but
died enroute.
Herbert Linn located at West Un-
ion about eight years ago, and en-
tered the restaurant and grocery
business. He later purchased the
Bentfield building and conducted a
liquor store.
Herbert John Linn was born on
April "a, 1906, at Jordan, Mimi,
and he was 35 years old when in

life was suddenly terminated. The

movement Of the National United
Service Organizations to raise ten
millions Of dollars for the first
years recreational needs of the
more than a million and a half men
in the Army and Navy and the
several millions of men and women
in defense industry will proceed in
cooperation with the national plan,
D. B. Caughren, permanent local
chairman, announced this week.
While the campaign is relatively
new to people of this section, Mr..
Caughren said that civic organiza-
tions would be asked to select COM
mittees through which an agency
for conducting the local campaign
might function. Subscriptions loc-
ally to the campaign may be made
even now, before the permanent or
ganization, to either bank.
National U.S.O. campaign Is
sponsored by six national organi-
cations: The Young Mems Christian
Associations, the National Catholic
Community Service, the Salvation
Army, the Young Women's Christ
ian Association, the Jewish We'll
fare Board, and the National Trav-
elers Aid Association.
In a bulletin received by Mr..
Caughren this week, it was point
ed out the Government and U.S.O.
are fully coordinated in the task.
The government, it said, takes full
responsibility for the religious,
recreational and welfare needs OF
