Arizona
NEW LOW IN SANTA CRUZ
RIVER BASIN

Water levels in most of the OBJ
servation wells in the Santa Cruz
River Basin are the lowest since
measurements were started in
1910, the Ground Water Division
of the U. S. Geological Survey re-
ports.
The report said that water lev
els in wells near the Santa Cruz
River between Nogales and Tucson
are about two feet lower than their
level one year ago, about six feet
lower than their level two years
ago, and about eight feet lower
than their level five years ago.
AND NEW LOW FOR GILA
Arizona's water runoff contin-
ued below average during July de-
spite summer rains, with the Gila
River runoff reaching its lowest
point since the gauging station
opened in 1914. The San Carlos res
ervoir at Coolidge Dam was empty
on July 81.
CAPSULED COMMENT
DO YOU KNOW that soil stud
les made by the U. S. Bureau of
Reclamation and the University of
California lists only $4,000 acres as
irrigable out of 225,0OO on the East
Mesa in Imperial Valley, yet the
Imperial Valley Irrigation District
is persisting in it's efforts to secure
Colorado river water to irrigate
all of these non-productive acres.

in conference dealing with the set
ting of the state tax rate.
AS a result of this activity,
Moore's report to the people will
be timely and of exceptional inter-
est.

ped the red-bedecked single wing

Star dress rehearsal for the Chicago
Cardinals next Friday was more of
a showdown between Notre Danes
Johnny Lujack and Mississippi's
Chuck Conerly.
Lujack's passing produced two T
formation touchdoWns, but Conerly
staged a triple-threat demonstration
which won most of the plaudits of
a crowd of 23,450 at Dyche Stadium
The game, pitting footballs two
foremost offensive systems, was
watched neutrally by All-Star Head
Coach Frank Leahy, who plans to
Use the double -barrelled attack
against the Cardinals before an es-
timated 100000 at Soldier Field Fri

Leahy's aides ran today's regula-
ton game which was a rip-Snortin'
contest with no holds barred. The
lead changed hands seven times be-
fore Ollie Cline of Ohio State
plunged four yards for the T forma-
tion's deciding touchdown with three
minutes left.
Two opposing fullbacks, Notre
Danes Floyd Simmons of the 7
formation team and Pennsylvania S
Bill Luongo of the single wing. led
the scoring with two touchdowns
apiece.
But it was the Lujack VS.. Conerly
display which stole the show. Lu-
jack had the scoring edge in passing

sunlit air the final strains of God

crowd stood still, seemingly not
realizing 1t was over.
Proudest Of all, standing there,
seemed to be the Americans. For
them it had been a glorious two
weeks. They were carting away the
most gold medals-38-and the un-
official team championship with 662
points compared with 353 for sec
ond place Sweden.
The Olympic Games were such a
wondrous success it is difficult to

The $4,000 and more who climbed
the long hill leading to the Olympic
Stadium to say goodbye to the
games might have been there for
10 days. They looked the same Ax

the opening. England has taken q
terrific pride in showing the world
that, despite its troubles, 1t still Is

Just before the red Olympic
flame died out, J. Sigfrid Edstrom,
fine old Swede who walks assisted
by cane, climbed to a white Ros-
trum and invited the youth of the
world to attend the next games at
Helsinki. Finland, in 1852. Edstrom
is the International Olympic Com
mittee president.
Il call upon the youth Of every
country to assemble in four years
at Helsinki. there to celebrate with
us the games of the 18th Olympiad,"
he said in broken English. May
they display cheerfulness and con-
cord SO that the Olympic torch may
be carried for the good of hu-
manity throughout the ages"
He also said that, although the
Olympic games cannot enforce
peace, they give the opportunity to
all the youth, of the world to find
out that al men on earth are
brothers" He spoke with an
earnestness and intensity which
could be felt near the top of the
big stadium.

|. Another 8-Run Innino
Helps Yankees Rout
Macks Again, 14-3
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

NEW YORK, Aug. 14.-Scoring
eight runs in one inning for the
second consecutive game. the New
York Yankees rolled to a 1913 tri-
umph over the Philadelphia Athle-
tics today.
The Yanks, who scored eight
times in the eighth inning to beat
the AS 8-5 last night, exploded for
eight runs in the second inning to-
day to enable Athletic-Kil Vic
Raschi to coast to his 18th victory
of the season.
Yankee Manager Bucky Harris
shook up his lineup, inserting
Catcher Yogi Berra in right field,
Bobby Brown at third and shifting
Rightfielder Tom Henrich to first
base.
The move paid dividends. Berra
collected four of the Yankees II
hits and dove IN two runs. Heinrich
Clipped In with two hits, scored
twice and drove In q run. Brown
collected, two safeties, scored twice
and knocked in a mate.
Joe Di Maggie, who belted his
25th homer and drove in four runs,
walked to start the Yankees big sec
ond inning rally. Di Maggie also
climaxed the uprising against Dick
Fowler, who absorbed all the pun
ishment, with two-run single to
become the first player in either
circuit to drive in 100 runs this
season. The Yankee Clipper now
has batted in 102 runs, five more
than he drove home during the
entire 1947 season.
