Mr.. Wilson, who is now an assist
ant in that office, was educated in
the public schools of Arizona, in
Guiding Phoenix College, and at
Stanford University. He has been
engaged in the general practice OF
law since 1880 except for a short
period of time when he served as
attorney for the Industrial Com
mission and in the office of Gen
eral Council for the Federal Sc
curity Agency in Washington, D.
c., and in Denver, Colorado.
Mr.. Wilson stated that he bases
his candidacy upon his ability to
give service to the state because OF
his years of experience in Govern
mental and private practice. He
believes that the Attorney General
as the legal aviser for most of the
Departments of State Government,
including the Legislature, should
hold his office in readiness to serve
those officers of the state. If state
officials receive sound legal advice
the public as a whole will ultimate
ly benefit therefrom and thus full
fill the prime purpose of the office
A native son, Mr.. Wilson resides
with his wife and family on a small
ranch north west of Phoenix.

September 7, 1948. He has been
Superintendent of Public InStruc-
ton since his appointment, Sep
tember 16, 1947.
Mr.. KlemmedSon has vigorously
sponsored a movement to bring be-
fore the people of Arizona the ad-
visibility of reorganiZing the State
Department of Education in order
to improve the efficiency and edu-
cational services demanded by our
rapidly increasing school popula-
ton.
To implement a sound State ed
ucational organization, he has in
vited lay leaders to survey the
work of the Department of Educa-
ton and to make recommendations
for improvement.
Mr.. Klemmedson, as an educator,
has long demonstrated his belief in
broad educational program,
which will meet the needs of all
Arizona youth. He has been in
Arizona since 1927, at which time
he accepted an appointment in the
College of Agriculture at the Uni
versity of Arizona. While connect
ed with the University, his educa-
tional work took him into all parts
of the State, where he became we'll
acquainted with the people of Ari-
zona, their schools and colleges.
In 1887 he resigned his position
and moved to Phoenix to engage in
farm management work with "a
firm doing business Throughout Ari-
zona and the West. This expert
ence brought him into contact with
the States rich farming and cat
tie industry with which he is thor
oughly familiar.
From 1941 to 1916, Mr.. Klem-
medson served as Director of War
Training in the State Department
of Education. This assignment en-
abled him to become thoroughly
acquainted with the State Depart
ment he now has charge of.
Born in the State of Colorado,
September 7, 1894, Mr.. Klemmed-
son went through the public
schools of Colorado Springs, and
later received his B. S. and M. A.
degrees from Colorado State Col
lege of Agriculture. After finish
ing college, he took his first teach
ing job at Sargent Consolidated
High School, near Monte Vista,
Colorado, where he was a high
school teacher and coach.

Aubrey c. Aldridge presented a

and gave special attention to the
fact that the club was a brain
child of DR.. Bradford and resulted
from his Thanksgiving-day visit.
Earl Loneia of Ell Centro, Calf.
and a Southpaw was a constant
threat throughout the play. A play
off was nevessary between AID
ridge and Loneia to decide the
third place winner. Aldridge won.
Plans have already been made for
a fall and spring tournament under
the sponsorship of this club. It is
significant to note that the COM
munity has expressed interest in
this clean sport and that the
sportsmanship displayed by the
participants has merited invita-
tions from other communities for
the club to send representatives in
tournaments. Several club MEM
bers have registered to enter
tournaments held elsewhere dur
ing the summer.

AuondaLe School
BY L. w. PITTMAN.

School came to close at Avon
dale, last Friday, Mr.. J. Westbrook
Mcpherson gave a wonderful ad-
dress to the graduates and ad-
monished them that the answer
to their sixty four dollar question
-"Have we come to the end of
the trail?" rested with them. The
class motto, Climbing" impressed
the speaker very much, he said
it reminded him of Jacobs biblical
ladder, and he thought it too, was
something symbolic, just as the
ladder on which the word climbing
was written, in their motto.
Mrs. Mcpherson and Mrs. J. S.
Flipper, visitors from Phoenix,
witnessed the deliverance of this
most impressive address, to a
mixed audience.

The rain, the welcome rain!

Hill is due for big expansion in
service and popularity.
Already running between the
Senate wing of the Capitol and the
Senate Office Building, their tracks
will be extended for service to the
new Senate Office Building.
The new structre is to be built
on First street NE, between B and
c streets, to house the Senate's Is
standing committees, their chair
men and StaffS.
Because this means most OF the
Senate's hearings will take place in
the new building, one block further
from the Capitol than the present
Office building, the demand fol
transportation will be greatly in
creased. That is where the new
trolley system will come in handy
and be more popular, no doubt
than the present short line.
Will Pass Over Tunnel.
The route for the extension will
be under the sidewalk and parking
on the south side of the present
Office building. It will run from the
present monorail tracks due east
ward to the new Senate Office
Building. At the intersection OF
First street NE the trolley subway
will pass over the top of the rail-
road tunnel which is deeper under
ground. The railroad tunnel bring
ing trains into Union Station from
the south passes under First street
NE. for several blocks.
Handy entrances to both the Sen
ate Office Buildings will be provided
for trolly passengers. There also
will be pedestrian tunnels under
First street, near the B and c street
ends of both buildings.
The monorail trolley operates on a
shuttle system without regular
schedule. No fare is required. Pri-
marily for the use of Senators, the
little trains are also available to the
public, and are highly popular with
children visitors to Capitol Hill
buildings.
The new Senate Office Building is
to include many accommodations
for the standing committees and the
public. There will be an auditorium
with seating capacity for 500 per-
sons, with facilities for recording
hearings, moving picture projection,
broadcasting, and television.
2 Special Hearing Rooms Planned.
Plans provide for two large special
hearing rooms, each about the size
of the caucus room in the present
Senate Office Building.
The Vice President will be pro-
vided quarters. including four rooms,
in the corner of the building nearest
the Capitol and also nearest the
trolley terminal.
There is to be a cafeteria seating
TOO persons, and dining rooms with
waiter service. Accommodations Will
be provided for the press, radio and
television. Underground garages Will
house about 200 automobiles.
Plans for the new building already
have progressed to the point where
most details have been laid out IN

new precinct on behalf of the citi-
zens of the area.
The new police station will start

Priorities Approved
For Inspections Under
New D. T.. Fire Code

The Commissioner today approved
a priority list by which 5000 build
ings constructed before 1916 will be
inspected under the city's new fire
egress regulations.
The new regulations, covering the
older buildings in the city, were
adopted by the Commissioners May
q as a watered-down version of ear
lier egress rules proposed year ago.
The less stringent version was
adopted after property owners pro-
tested that the cost of compliance in
the case of old buildings would be
prohibitive under the earlier rules.
First step under the new regula-
tions, which become enforceable jan
uary l, 1949, will be inspection OF
all affected buildings by agents OF
the Building Inspector and the Fire
Marshal to determine where they
are in violation.
Priorities Listed.
First priority has been given, the
Commissioners said, to hospitals,
schools, hotels, theaters, District
owned buildings and restaurants.
Second priority buildings include
500 rooming houses over three stories
and 1000 apartments. Third pri-
ority is allotted to 5000 office and
commercial buildings.
1T is important that the work be
started promptly and prosecuted
vigorously" the Commissioners de-
clared, that all available personnel
be put on it, and that it be done in
the correct priority, with the en-
phasis always on those buildings
where the human risk is the
greatest"
The city heads said the procedure
of inspection will be under the gen.
eral control and supervision OF an
Assistant Engineer Commissioner,
probably 1t. Col. Kenneth E. Mad
sen. The Commissioners added that
field inspectors who handle the in
spections must be familiar with the
egress regulations and must have
enough knowledge of structural mat
ters to be able to determine whether
the regulations are being obeyed in
any given case.
inspectors Know Rules.
"The field inspectors OF the De-
partment of Building Inspection do
possess this knowledge" the Com
missioners said.
Representatives of Building In
spector Robert H. Davis and Fire
Marshal Raymond Roberts will work
together on the vigorous prosecu-
tion" of the new regulations, the
Commissioners said.
Federally owned buildings are not
considered and new construction is
governed by different, more rigid,
fire egress code.
