Electric Power Dead
For Over Two Hours

When lights, juke boxes, pin
ball games, refrigerators, and
linotype machines went quiet
ly dead Monday afternoon, all
of Coolidge found itself with
out power for approximately
two and one half hours.
The trouble lay in broken ca
bles which ran across a recla-
nation canal behind Vha-ki
Inn, near the Casa Grande Ru-
ms. The canal was being
dragged, and a boom probably
swung and cut the cables.
The break had to be traced
by sections, which caused the
delay in returning the power.

The four options are:

From this list. the last would

third would be next inasmuch as a

grave. This leaves two choices that
will be more apt TO be selected by
the next OF kin. II we consider

HIGHWAY 80 THROUGH
Florence is a portion OF Arizona's
first transcontinental route. Back

the Mexican border. Later the
name was changed TO "Bankhead
Highway" in honor of Senator
Bankhead OF Alabama TO whom
great credit for federal aid on
transcontinental highways is due.

Somewhere along the line women
