Wl RULES
ARE ADOPTED
At Meeting of Valley In
terscholastic League It
Is Decided No Post Grad
uate Student Shall Enter
Athletic .Meets in 1913.
TEMPK, Dec. 21 Track rules for
the season of the spring of 1913 were
adopted Saturday afternoon at the
Tempe meet ins of the members of
the Valley Interscholastic Athletic
league and the length of the season
decided upon. One of the most im
portant 'ridings is one which pro
hibits graduate.-:, who are taking ex
tra work to take part in any of the
interschool athletic meets. This rule
will shut out a number of men who
have been planning to be in the
meets. The final meet was fixed
for February 1. 1913, to be pulled off
at the fair grounds at Phoenix in
the afternoon of the above mention-
eel date. A committee was
ted to draw up a baseball
appoint -schedule
for the schools.
The meeting was called together
in the high school building. Prof.
Michael of the Phoenix high, K. P.
Venue of the Indian school. Robe of
the Mesa high. Prof. Jennings of
Tempe high and John Spikes of the
normal were present. The first de
cision reached was that regarding the
closing of the Salt river valley track
season. The matter of a baseball
season was then taken up and it
was agreed to schedule each team
for eight games. The baseball sea
sen will follow immediately on the
heels of the track year. When th
fiist meet will occur is yet unde
cided. Track will reign all through
January with dual meets at inter
vals between the two Tempe schools
and Phoenix and Mesa. The Indians
following their established custom
will not enter until the finals come
around.
Arrangements were concluded for
ihe 'meet that will end the sea
son, a meet in which the victors at
all previous contests will be admit
ted. This is the meet that will hap
pen on February 1. The state fair
grounds ' in Phoenix will be used
to stage the athletic
special arrangements
with the railroad to
congvess and
will be made
convey south-
skiers to and from the meet.
The most startling rule that has
been adopted in some time, yet one
which is conceded should have been
passed long ago is that restricting
the eligible entrants to undergrad
uates of the institution for which
they contend. It is said here Phoe
nix high will suffer most from the
enforcement of the new mile, but
none of the schools will be very
badly off by its effect.
A committee composed of Jennings
and Srdkes will draw up the sched
ule for the valley baseball series. It
is the intention of the committee to
arrange that each team shall play
each other team two game.

The State Land Commission at the
time of its appointment was supposed
to have primarily to do with the
school land selection within the state,
but the amount of public lands within
the state is also large and of neces
sity needs looking after. The public
lands of the state is not confined to
one locality any more than is the
school lands, and often in locating
school land it became necessary for
the commission to have a great deal
to do with the general public land.
In reference to this condition, the
State Land Commission recently, said :
"Co-jointly with the work of ex
amining the school lands in the dis
tricts visited the commissioner is not
only examining the unappropriated
public lands which are thus traversed,
with a view to recommendations for
selections in satisfaction of the Con
gressional Grants, but through the
.search of official and private records
of water appropriations, surveys and
engineering reports, as well as from
other sources, is gleaned varied and
valuable information which it is ex
pected will lead to the making of the
ehioeest possible selections.
"While the impression seems to
quite generally prevail that practi
cally all of Arizona's lands suscepti
ble of irrigation lie within the limits
of the few projects already establish
ed and a very few contemplated en
terprises which are well known to. the
public, the ' commission, as a result
of its thus far immature and incom
plete investigations, holds a widely
different view.
"The commission is convinced that
within the next few years the im
pounding and development of water,
by means of surface and underground
dans, of r'eserviors and canals and
through the medium of artesian and
other wells, will work the reclamation
of millions of acres of fertile lands
now regarded as hopeless desert
wastes. So urgt nt is the ever-westward
pressing demand, and so real
is the need, for farms, it cannot be
doubted that while land is land the
last dream-view of a promised em
pire will be some hardy explorer
followed to its end, and the last re
sources of the always resourceful and
never-tiring promoter will be ex-
hausted,- the
eering skill ;
its bottom,
an erstwhile
last measure of engin
md ingenuity drained to
to bring this vision of
wilderness dotted with
prosperous homes to a
zation. The commission
happy reali
is searching
for the places where this dream will
most likely and earliest come true,
and for the other places where a lit
tle later but full'as likely since .the
possibility of reclamation approxi
mates certainty it will be brought
to pass.
"Desiring to be equipped with at
least a primary knowledge of the en
tire state, es a basis for the more
accurate determination of value
which comes only through comparison
the commission is not as yet prepared
to make any specific recommendations
for grant selections, though several
important areas are being considered.
Although the occasion for all possible
haste in this matert is realized and
with this realization the work is
being pushed forward with consistent
rapidity, it is confidently believed
that, the best results can 1' obtained
only by the exercise .of reasonable
caution and moture judgment, based
upon actual and careful investigation.
"As shown by the United States
Land Office records, and by the com
missioner's observations in the field,
many choice small tracts are being
filed and , settled upon by individual
homeseeker's and speculators, while
the agents of the owners of lieu land
scripts are actively gobbling such sur
veyed areas, generally insignifteent
in size, as seem most desirable, but
the great bodies of unreclaimed lands
which to the minds of the commis
sioners offer the chief opportunites
for development remain comparatively
untouched. The number of inquiries

however, from companies, corpora-
tions and

cific enterprises are being projected.
Home-seekers in large numbers are
also looking toward Arizona as shown
by the commissioner's daily mail, ask
ing for particulars regarding the lease
or purchase of state and school lands,
arid in' many instances, doubtless bas
ed upon the assumption that included
in the duties of the commission are
those of an immigration board, re

of private lands. These letters are
carefully answered, and many refer

Splendid Work of Arizona School of
Music Causes Favorable Comment.
Among1 ihe forces that are tending
for a higner culture in Pnoenix, as
well as laying the foundation for mak
ing Phoenix a musical and artistic cen
ter, is the Arizona School of Music,
which occupies a handsome building
on North Center street. Since its or
ganization it has become a prominent
factor in the educational, social and
artistic life of the community. Dur
ing the winter many visitors come to
Phoenix, and many of them attend the
musicales presented by the School of
Music.
This winter so far three splendid re
citals have been given by the students
of the school, the programs for which
have heretofore been published in this
paper, two of the programs appearing
in yesterday morning's issue, but so
pleased were those attending the first
recital given some time back, that the
program of those interesting events is
printed again, so that still others with
in the city of Phoenix may see the class
of work that is being dorie at the
school.
This program has been called the
best musical program ever given by
local talent in the history of Phoenix.
It was presented by the vocal students
of Prof. Charles R. Xuetzei, and by
the piano students under Prof. Clem
A. Towner. Mrs. C. A. Towner was the
accompanist. The following is the
program in full.

The star-gazing coterie will be made

What the Cub battle array will look,
