Thousands of automobile visitors
who spent from a night to three or
four months and many thousands of
dollars in and around Prescott, arc
the subject of one of the most in
teresting reports to the chamber of
commerce this year. Chairman Bob
Byrns of the camp grounds commit
tee presented these illuminating fig
ures and comments:
"It being impossible to make a
complete and actual tally of all of
the visitors we. had, a very conser
vative estimate has been made which
shows that during the 1922 summer
season a total of more than 940 cars,
averaging three passengers each,
camped within two miles of Prescott,
at the following points:
Pine Dells 412 cars -
Xorris tract 250 cars
Foot of Alto street 35 cars
Old Ball park 30 cars
Jersey Lily road 75 cars
Paradise Valley ranch 138 cars
"These figures do not include the
campers at Groom Creek, 'Granite
Dells or below Fort Whipple. The
above figures only cover the count
of new arrivals and, as many of the
cars were here 90 days or longer,
such cars were only counted once.
As there was located here during
the three summer months an average
of more than 35 cars daily, which
cars remained here during that time,
:wc believe there were at least an
average of 15 more cars of campers,
that we termed as transients, only
remaining from 12 to 48 hours.
These figures make a total of 1,500
cars per month or a total of 4,500
cars during the summer season, in
addition to which are the cars that
came through this section, both in
the spring and during the fall sea
sos, which are not included in our
estimates.
"Using the actual check made by
the Pine Dells company, as a basis,
which showed 1,237 passengers in
the 412 cars reported by them, we
believe we had during the summer
season at least 13,500 one-night camp
visitors, plus those in the 42 perm
anent tents located at Pine Dells,
who paid over $3,000 in rentals and
which on a basis of SI each per per
son per day would bring the total to
approximately 17,000 camp visitors,
averaging more than 12 hours each
in this section of the county.
"Your committee would urgently
suggest that the chamber of com
merce arrange to make provisions
for one, and one only permanent
camp ground, as close to the city of
Prescott as possible, and that all
campers dc concentrated at such a i
location, doing away with the caniD-lcloscd with siSinS of a Badger song

The University of Arizona is not
so much a group of buildings hous
ing a faculty and a student body, as
it is an idea implanted and flourish
ing in the consciousness of the people
of Arizona. Further, this idea in the
minds of the people is brought to
fruition only by the conscientious ap
plication of the university student.
Such was the message of Dr. Cloyd
H. Marvin, president of the Univer
sity of Arizona, in talks before the
Prescott High school student body
yesterday morning and the Prescott
Rotary club "yesterday noon.
Dr. Marvin yesterday appeared be
fore the high school students in the
auditorium and presented, Prescott
with -the University of Arizona
President's cup for 1922, in rccogni
tion of the success of seven Prescott
High school graduates in making the

were accompanied to the high school
by'. Dr: J. W. Flinn, chairman of the
Prescott school board, and Senator-
elect Howard Cornick, a member of
the school board. Dr. Marvin was
presented by Prof. S. H. Martin, su
perintendent of Prescott schools, who
was presented by Miss Virginia
Coleman, principal of the high
school.
Ml efforts of the educational sys
tem are useless without the individ
ual effort of the student, who can
expect little benefit from a university
course if lie is unwilling to put the
best of himself into his work, Dr.
Marvin told the high school students.
He then presented the President's
cup, which was received for the high
school by Miss Coleman.
The program at the high school,
presided over by Miss Coleman, con
sisted of two selections by the high
school orchestra, a vocal solo by Miss

(From baturday's Daily)
"Thirteen Soap" proved unlucky
for dirt at the high school junior
class play last night, and the junior
class players' acting proved unlucky
for gloom. The curtain hadn't been
up three minutes before the little
black-capped devils invented by Pow
ers were nowhere to be seen. They
were chased out by a troop of Joys.
Thfc Journal-Miner's dramatic critic
last night informed this paper that
out of the entire cast, "by -gosh, I
wouldn't know who to select as the
best actor. It 'was a pretty close
draw between Tom Bate, Marion
Ross and Norman Fain 'among the
boys, and Esther Devin and Dora
Rosenblatt for the girls. The whole
show was pnt on in a very creditable
manner.
The amusing situations and clever
lines of George M". Cohan's Broad
way success, "It Pays to Advertise,"
lost nothing of tlfeir vivacity' as -portrayed
. and spoken by the juniors.
Particularly effective were the French
lines, bf Dora Rosenblatt as the Com
tesse be Bcaurien.
The story related the fantastic ad
ventures in love and business of Rod
ney Martin, son of Cyrus Martin, the
soap king, upon whose success his
father had laid a wager of $30,000-
with John Clark, father of Ellcry
Clark, Rodney's busjness opponent.
Tom Bate proved himself a young
Cohan in his -portrayal of Rodney.
Clair Scholcy was an effective foil
as Ellery Clark. Rodney and his ad
vertising man, Ambrose Peel (played
by Norman Fain), with Mary Gray
son, the secretary, invent the
clever advertising phrase, "Thirteen
soap Unlucky for Dirt," and carry
ing on an extensive advertising cam
paign without manufacturing the
soap, clean up when they sell the
name to Rodney's dad, who cheer
fully forks over the half million price
of his son's success and his own bet,
that Miss Grayson cleverly extracts.
Miss Grayson also cleverly puts Rod
ney to work and it works out that
he leads her to the alter.
Esther Devin made a thoroughly
modern secretary -and an efficient
Miss Grayson. RqdiiC3r's dad was well
played by Marion Ross. Ned Yount
was good as William Smith, a friend
of the Marlins, - and LcRoy Smith
should apply for a job with Marshall
Field & Company, whom he ably
rcprcsciitcd. Johnic Lee Parsons
as Miss Burke was a demure office
clerk. Alcnc Dickson played the part J
of the maid at the Martin home in
good style.
Much credit is- due the coach. Miss
Lillian Savage, for the very effective
direction ana setting of the piece.
The high school orchestra, under the
direction of Miss Lillian Hawkinson,
provided -n excellent musical pro
gram for the entr'actes. Arthur Davis,
Jr., played a pleasing violin solo,
and Sally Hall played a saxophone
solo. Both these numbers were en
cored. An audience of all the auditorium
could scat witnessed the play, and

Immediately after the arrival of the
north-bound train yesterday after
noon, President C. II. Marvin and
Mrs. Marvin, accompanied by Dr.
E. Lee Howard and Mr. Herbert
Drachman of the board of regents,
drove to the aqadcmj-, where they
were met by Father .Girard and en
tertained at luncheon.
The members of class 1923 were
presented to the university president
who spoke a warm welcome for the
prospective students at U. of A. next
year.
To the assemblage of high school
students in the auditorium, President
Marvin made a happy talk, .inter
spersed with valuable advice as to
the making capital of the strenuous
and complex problems that face the
high school students both in their
school work and in the development
of character.
President Marvin expressed his de
light in the equipment and appoint
ments of the academy and promised
the sisters and students that he
woulil visit them again before the
close of the current school year.
The faculty and student body of
the academy appreciate the kind in

this pleasant visit of President and
Mrs'. Marvin.

Indications that the showing of
high-grade silver ore encountered at
the Dos Oris mine last week will
confirm the hopes of those interested
in the property were forthcoming
yesterday when samples which E.
Nutter, general manager of the
property, declared were taken from
the full width of the eight-inch vein
were assayed and found to give the
following results:
A -sample from the middle of the
streak of argentite which it was de
clared would run between 500 and
1,000 ounces in silver ran $12.40 in
gold, $1,320.60 in silver, making a to-
ital value of $1,333. A sample from
the south part of the streak ran
$16.52 in gold and $1,043 in silver, a
total value of $1,060.13 to the ton.
Assays of samples from the black
sulphide streak laying alongside the
richer argentite deposit assayed
$18.60 in gold and $51.10 in silver, a
total of $69.70 to the ton; and of a
sample of lead ore laying on top of
the argentite streak, the assay was
28 per cent lead and eight ounces of
silver to the ton.
The Dos Oris was recently taken
over from Burmistcr & Hill by the
Standard Metals company, formed
by a group of seven Denver capital
ists for that purpose. Manager Nut
ter will continue exploration of the

Stanley Montoya deserted his wife

senting himself thus unusually and
without permission or consent, Mon-j

Montoya were married at Phoenix
July 15, 1921, and it was on August
