REPORTS GAME

Columbia Star to Crit icise j
Tempo-Phoenix Game for
This Paper She Races i
for Track Record This
Morning at Kair Grounds;
T I TS
TO THE CAffl
Clyrje llaine and Rob Orput
'.'"Leave' Sundav for El
Tov;ir Will Pass Month
in ( "ool Forests of the
Northland
One- of the grandest little trips in
the world, the Phoenix-Grand Can
yon ride, is to be taken by J. Clyde
Blaine and R. J. Orput, of this city,
and of the Phoenix Motorcycle club,
starting Sunday morning.
Ravir.g of the most extreme sort
is proper: Too many good "things
cannot be said of the trip. If, at
the start, it presents ' the horrors of
a dry dusty desert, its mid-die and
third divisions lie through the cool,
clean' forests of Yavapai and Coco
nino counties, that Come nearer being
an ideal summer playground than
any other section of the southwest.
From Phoenix to Wickenhurg there
are road " troubles. Even the auto
finds difficulty there. But after
those first harrowing hardening six
ty mlts. the traveler finds himself
in a veritable paradise of outdoors.
It is a little better outdoors tha
any other specially in summer time.
From Preseott to the Grand Can
yon, the road ' follows the rounding
hills, misses scorching, lava plains
by "narrow margins, but- always
plunges back into the delightful
green of the grass-carpeted pine forests-
'
The "hard' compact oil of the
mountain roads is very inviting.
Blaine and Orput will find no trou
ble in- negotiating them. Since four
intrepid Phoenicians rode to the
canyon last summer, breaking the
trail and proving its possibilities,
there has been much longing, among
the local riders. Plaine announced
his intentions long ago. , Orput de-r-rderi
to join him just lately. Blaine
is riding a two-speed Excelsior: Or
put a. Flying MerkeL. In last year's
trip. Maurice . Valentine on a twin
Merkel made a wonderful . record for
economy and durability on the Can
yon road. With him went Chet Mun
""h mi a Thor, "Doc" Watson on a
Harvey and Bill Doheney on a Jef
ferson. ' . ,
The riders expect to be gone about
a . month.
By "SCOOP"
Stay, motorcyclist!
In other words, stick around, we
will have duels soup.
In the absence of anything else to
uo yester morn, tl saw all Ihe more
prominent dealers in single track
gasoline vehicles, with the result that
there will be fun, excitement, profit
and glory for the riders of the said
motorcycles, Sunday and Sundays to
come. More yo-heaver contests, hill
climbs, and that gas economy stuff.
We are waking up to the fact that
we have at least four live motor
nikc dealers in this man's town.
They are Landis and Gardiner, Wey
and and Brown, Doe Lane and Tack
Sadler. They represent the four
great standard motorcycles, the In
dian, Kxceisior. Harley-Davidson and
Merkel. And thereby hangs a ta!e.
Since Doc Lane won the pull con
test from Weyand last Sunday,
there has been a great deal of in
terest in the heaving powers of all
motorcycles. It was granted that
the tie-'em-together system was not
an extra good one. It gave too
much advantage to the rider. But
the sjek-hauling method is better.
They will haul sacks Sunday. The
judges measure the gears to see they
are the same, then they tie a ten
foot rope between the pulling mech
anism and a sack of sand. It is
necessary for the machine to haul
that sack of sand a measured ten
teet over the ground.
As ihe machines successfully yank
the weight the required distance, the
judges pour more sand into the re
ceptacle in five-pound lots, until
they roach a weight that one ma
chine cannot negotiate. Then if the t
other can haul it, the other is the
winner.
In the gasoline economy test, there
is much instruction and enjoyment
to be gained. Weyand wants to take
a bran new Excelsior out of a bran
j new crate, put some small portion of
gasoline in its tank and see how-
many . miles he Can accomplish.
There is a division of opinion as to
the best place to pull the. contest.
Some want it on the road, others on
the track. It is possible that the
ciub can secure the mile track at the
fair grounds for the purposes of the
test.
There has been nothing accom
plished in recent motorcycling annals
in Phoenix that interested so may
people as the pull contest last Sunday
morning. With the stimulation or a
mall side bet, J. H. Lane and L. E.
Weyand held one of the most profit
ably public little contests of the
season. .Now comes an opportunity
for the dealers in other makes to
compete against each other in a
friendly bout.
The time is rather short for pre
paring machines, but even if Sun
day's contests should not prove en
tirely satisfactory, they vfill serve to
"rt marks that can be demolished it;
sub.-eqi-jnt trials.

I've a new assistan. It is that
inimitable young woman athlete. Jane
O'Roark.
When Teinpe and Phoenix meet
here Sunday that's tomorrow for a
hall game, Miss Jane O'Roark, vau
deville actress, motor car racer, avi
atrix, swiyiming champion, and ex
pert in half a dozen lines of sport,
will be there to watch the play. an-1
to report what she sees in Mon
day's paper.
There, that was quite a hit of
business to accomplish in half a
moment's conversation "behind" at
the Columbia last evening. The
strenuous star received me cordially
that's to be expected; and hade me
b seated on a dusty stairway
which was. not to be expected, hut
was just enjoyable, all the same. You
see Miss Iewis, the clever dancer
was occupying the same dressing
room because lier's was flooded
from the building processes, so we
were outcasts.
Miss O'Roark is one of the few
stars, who does not read her lines
or just lines to an interviewer. Per
haps she did 't know I was an inter
viewer, but I was always an, when
I get a chance.
Look out! Here comes the results;
"I am quite a driver. I shall try
my best to cut the track record for
the five miles when I race at tlx
fair grounds tomorrow morning. I
am not familiar with the car I am
to have a Cole roadster but 1 can

exclaimed interestedly.
"Why certainly" instantly.
So there you see how I am going
to sacrifice myself for n.y readers:
We always do that. We are bravely
willing to run any risk for a few
sensations to retail to the insatiable
public!
The conversation dropped to car
buretors, and air mixtures, and miles
per hour, so the interview began to
grow tame. I cast about for some
thing to liven it up.
"How about howling?"
"Oh, where, can I bowl?"
"Mesa, seventeen miles away," I
exolaimeed cleverly.
"'Tis nothing to me. I ll make it
in a few minutes in my car. Do
you bowl?"
I couldn't and won't learn, and

NINE MORE PETITIONS
FOR NEW LAWS FILED
Secretary of State Flooded With New
Legislative Ideas in Form of
Initiatives .
Nine petitions for elections on pro
posed legislation were filed yesterday
at the office of the secretary of state,
three of them seeking to amend the
constitution and the others initiating
six legislative measures to be voted
on at the next election.
The amendments to the constitution
provide for radical changes in the su
preme law of the state. One provides
that the governor's veto or the power
of appeal of the legislature shall not
extend to initiative and referendum
measures passed by a majority vote
of the people. Another would amend
the constitution to the effect that the
legislative power be vested in the
house of representatives, thus doing
away with the senate. The third pro
poses to so amend the constitution
that the state "may contract debts to
supply casual deficits, or failures in
revenues, or to raise money to meet
any obligation of the state created by
law, or for any purpose authorized by
law.''
The bills proposed range from a
mothers' pension act to one regulating
the stringing of electric wires. One
provides that SO per cent, of the work
ers employed by any company, corpor
ation or individual must be qualified
electors or native-born citizens of Ari
zona, and another along the same gen
eral line would prohibit blacklisting
and unlawful interference with labor
ers. Still another would abolish the con
tract system on all state labor, estab
lish a state printing plant where school
books and all state publications would
be printed and provides for the . es
tablishment of a state banking sys
tem. The act concerning mothers and old
age pensions provides pensions of $15
a month for all persons over GO years
of age who are in need of state aid,
and for the pensioning of all widows,
and of wives whose husbands have
been committed to insane asylums or
penal institutions, at the rate of $15
CGMMEEfT
Too Much -Mustard is all right at
tht top of a flock of music marks,
but it were better as the title of Abe
Lukin's oration, delivered on each
available listener, where there is any
opportunity to til 'im about the
Bears. "Me strengthen up?" Abe
will ask in an offended tone, "Why
iin't I getlin' a new catcher? My
team is soo strong now. Lookut
what we oid to Phoenix last Sun
day. Ain't that enough?"
r rial n
Lukin has been getting a new
catcher ever since we can lemem
ber and that is a long time to
forget. H. B. Griffen. Jr., reported
to Lukin that Nut, the completely
ciassy backstop of the Bears last !
season is idling his time away in
some small tank town in Kansas.
Griffen also' reports that maybe Nutt
would fall lead.of heart failure if
of fei ed a job with Tempe. These
news ate unfounded, however. . We
are; not saying he would be one of j
them .there things what his name is. j
if he should come back, but Just the
same . '
1 main all lines, nnd that is a mo-
tt.rcycle ride. Were we daring
enough, we should dare her to take
a ride on our machine. The fields
uf aviation, motoring, baseball, bowl
ing, boxing, fencing ee. tee. see are
t il familiar to this strenuous vaudc
villeuse. She confhled in us her abil
ity to average around 210 on any
eld alleys, and claims a high score
of 240, which is pretty close to the
big red sign painted over the Y. M.
C. A. alleys.
If there is any form of sport in
which Jane O'Roark has not partici
pated, we would like to hear its
last name. There is one thing we
believe that stands between this ac
complished sportswoman and a dip-
i per month for each child under 16
i and for an additional pension of $6
I per month for each dependent child
j over that age. The fund, in part at
least, is to be provided from the sale
i of the buildings and grounds of all
j almshouses in the state, which are
I abolished by the act.
; The sixth bill proposed provides
j regulations prescribing the manner in
i which electric wires, poles, cables and
j applianeesjshall be placed.
If the required number of names is
I secured for these and other petitions
! now being circulated for the initiation
j of new legislation, the ballot next fall
j will be the largest in the history of
the state, as the files at the office of
j the. secretary of state alreadv contain
dozens of petitions of this nature.
