Republican Receives Let ters on the Subject. I'luns fur the summer's baseball might ti I warming up shortly. Is the opinion of those hot stove league leaders who luive remained faithful to Die nalional pastime, in this, its least exciting hour. The Republican is in receipt of a. number of com munications on the sulijert of h.ise l.all for the Salt Itivcr Valley during the nexl season. F'ublioity will he &;ien tmt to two of them, however. Ideas are being sought, so, a further delving into the sul.jeet is invited. It is possible that from some of the eager plans of the devoted followers of the game, really valuable sugges tions may he gleaned. From a man who has managed baseball clubs in Arizona during UH4, eomes the following suggestion: "What do you think of n four-chin league, composed of 1'hoenlx, Mesa. Nearly Thirty Motorcyclists Exercise Themselves on Goldfield Run, and Turn Up With Huge Appetites at Cook-Shack By SCOOP Now we know why the bread sup ply went low on us. It's because the roads are bumpy. Nobody ever thought of it before, but now, v. e know! When thirty motorcyclists under took to make a club run to Goldfield mine yesterday, they discovered that I hey needed food. They needed it mighty bad. too, for it was hunger- inducing exercise to sit upon a more I or less rigid saddle and pound along over the cuppy. highways. And they were awfully cuppy, too and hard in a sinner's heart from the effects of the long rains of last month and the j heavy traffic, that beat the mud down solid and then kept it there while Old Sol baked it. ! Happily there was an amiable; China cook at the mess house, and a big supply of grub, and several generous lunches among the party, that the three meals consumed dur ing the club run were sufficient un til the riders could get back to Phoe nix for another large eats in the form of home-made food. C'ap'n T Krnest Fugle led the crowd away from the club headquarters, corner of Washington and First avenue, after a neighboring "chop-house" had been veil and adequately raided. This oc- J curreu onout eignt ociock. ine air was zippy with the (hill of an Arj. ::ona winter, the crowd was merry as only motorcyclists having no large cares may be, and the Verv rood was o;.en and free to everybody. All but Monsieur Harry crandall man aged to make the trip under proper power and Harry had to be towed in although it's shameful of us .to b t this get into the public prints. At Ooldfield there was nothing to do until lunch time, except explore virgin territory, try hitherto untamed rand patches and climb never-before-i limbed dump banks. . It is the big boast of Pres. Worcester tnat his single lunged wonder made the dump erade although he has to admit it was Ij. Roido who guided the mar vel up the twenty-foot bank. Cpokee had not yet' received the letter warning him that the gans was coming. In fact, it wasn't de livered until the whole guest list had arrived, bringing prodigious appe tites and loud demands for ths where-v.ithal to appease them. He was a new cook, too, having been hired but the same morning. But all honor to his yellow hide he "came It -ough!" A cook-shack dinner, fit for the most ravenous miner was produce! with lightning-like soon-ness. And, It must be said, consumed after the name fashion. Meal No. 3 occurred on the re turn triii about half way to Phoe-( nix, when some of the provident ones , opened lunch baskets and fed the j.arty the luscious sandwiches an 1 salads and" plcklen that form the basis for picnic eats. Some of the thirty-five new club members will be found, among the following list of those present: T. K. Fogle. R. J. Orput, Kllie Wil son. I.enora Iee, Pay W. Ward ami i wife, Harrv Crandall, B. R.

FOOTBALL COACH SHOULD E THAT HIS BUSINESS That a football coach, to produce the best results should make coaching a regular business is the opinion of William (Pill) Kdwards, the famous Princeton guard. Edwards, in stat ing his views on the future coach ing system at Princeton, said re cently: "1 believe absolutely in the one man system. Football has become a regular business, and in any regular business, one man must stand at the head. There should never be consid- ered any time any man but a Prince ton football man lor the position. oiuruii u.m iiuiiici ous iiien w no can I handle this job successfully, but when such a man is chosen, he must make football bis regular business and give his entire time to this work. Such a man must be well paid, and this man should, I believe, have en tire selection of the coaches under him." o WILLARD TOO BIG TO DEFEAT BIG BOXERS SAYS JOE CHOYNSKI Joe Choynski. - "Jess Willard will never be a champion of big men because he is too big tiimself," says Joe Choynski, prominent pug of other days who now lives in Pittsburg. He says there never was a chain as big as Willard, v - - . V ( x w I V CHIEFTAIN STARRED IN BOX Wild Hill Donovan, new man ager of the New York Americans, is one of the most striking char acters of organized baseball. He was associated Willi Washington and lirooklyn or the old National league before he jumped, in for mer war times, to the Detroit Tigers. In the City of the Straits, "Wild Hill always stood out prominent ly as a star with a poor support ing cast. I'pon the arrival of Hughie Jennings in 19H7, he final ly found himself and was most instrumental in winning three successive championships for Hugh. In 1fl(iS his record topped those of all the pitchers of or ganized ball. Although his team was beaten three times in the world's series twin by the Cubs and once by the Pirates the work of Dono van always stood out by itself in these games. Clood Roads Promoters in Eolith California Plan ning Concrete Highway from El Centro to Yuma. Ask Arizona's Aid That California is i.lanning to do do away with the dread Mammoth Wash or that part of it, which a concrete highway from El Centro to Yuma will displace became known here yesterday on receipt of an urgent appeal from Col. Ed Fletcher, the well-known San Diego good roads promoter, for Arizona's assistance. As president of the San Diego-Arizona Ausiliary of the Southern National Highway Association, Col. I-'leti ber I writes Harry Welch of the board of I trade as follows: I'hoenix Hoard of Trade. Phoenix, Arizona. fientlemen : I'nder date of December 30lh Presi dent John F. Neylan of the state board of control of California sends me the following report which has iieen made by the state board of con trol to the state legislature: El Centro-Yuma Highway A request for $4UU,iluO to construct t highway between El Centro in Im perial county and Yuma, Arizona, was presented. The state controller rind the state board of control have recommended that $l!Uu,iiO! be appro priated as the state's share in this construction, and that it be expended on the condition that the remaining sum necessary for the ((instruction of this highway shall be secured either from the federal government or other sources. The appropriation is recommended for this highway in order to connect the Imperial Valley with the state ol Arizona, affording that valley an out let into the neighboring state and at the same time affording a means for transcontinental travel to reach coast without being subjected to the the hardships of the present routes. You will see by the above that have the administration behind we us but and there is hardly a question what the appropriation of $2(10.000 will be made within the next sixty Uavs. This means the absolute assurance of a concrete highway from El Centro, Calif, to Yum. i. Arizona. Contracts have been let for most of the state highway San Diego to E! Centro and within the next eighteen months the state highway will be built from San Diego to Los Angeles, San Fran cisco and the Oregon line. Tn other words a first class concrete highway will eventually be built to Yuma, Ari zona, from Sart Iiego, and what we wint see in the continuation of this highway from Phoenix, Arizona, find connect up with El Paso, '"'exas. irid Albuquerque, New Mexico. We sincerely hope that you will do evervthing you can to continue the good work. The lumber has been or dered, and is now on the road, to plank the sand dunes between El Centro and Yuma, and we are ex pecting by March Kith to have a temporary road between these two daces. STATE HIGHWAY BEST ROAD SAY MOTORISTS Motorists making the trip between here and Tucson, are advised to take the state highway between Florence and Jligley, and the Chandler road after leaving Uigley en route for the capital. A trip to Florence and return was made yesterday by Fred Kenyon and A. J. Kisselburg of the lJennsylvania Tire Agency, and C. A. Pope of the Firestone Agency. They reported, that although the state highway was rough, it was dry and not muddy, which is more than can be said of the other road. The trip made by the party, was one of pleasure, and was made with out any accidents. They found that the highways in general were in good condition.

Advent of a Sunnv Sundav Drew Hundreds of Motor-j ists to the Highways and Jivwavs :!()() an Hour on! Central Avenue ! The iiutiimiihile owning purtion if the Phuenix public, was out in full force yesterday.

On tin- Central avenue boulevard was a constant procession of ma chines. Two Ftepublican representa tives stationed several miles out on Central avenue, counted three hun dred machines, in the space of an hour. The usual number of lii?ht cars with a fair sprinkling of llilTi models, to nive ;1 (;,ir show of dis tinction to the parade, were to be seen. Out Orand avenue way, although the road was far from as smooth and inviting as that of Central av.yitic, there was a steady stream of cars, pait of whom slopped at the fail grounds, but the major portion made the trip through to Olendale. or com pleted this circle across Ninteenth avenue, back to the F'ho, nix streets. The motorcyclists, also, were out bi force, the I'hoenix Motorcycle club, making a run to Ceo. r. Young's Oolilfield mine. Those who did not take part in this trip, got (Hit their rear seats, or furnished up their side cars, and proceeded to take their families out to compete with the parade of motor cars. So far as known not a serious jc cident marred the day's pleasure, the usual number of punctures, with the accompanying trouble and annoyance, were registered. The number of ears out, made a fine advertisement for the city. The average stranger, would no doubt be impressed, not only with the quantity but with the quality of the ears. A number of late models, with all the latest appliances, the average number of last year's cam, helped to keep the roads warm.
