Talking about sports, every busi­ness man In Las Vegas should get behind the Las Vegas Athletic -Club now being organized fn this city, to foster boxing, base ball and all other-legitimate sports. - The Initial meeting was held at Legion Hall on'the 15th and the fol­lowing officers were elected:

President, Dr. Martin. Secretary, Roy Morgan. Committee on ^by-laws and organis­

ation, eGne Ward, Bd W. Clark' John Iter, Roy Morgani and W. R. Bracken.

-The new organization win include the U. P. base ball team, and as soon as the season opens Las Vegas will have another strong team. It is pro­posed to open up the new club with some classy boufcs and those who do not see the fights will miss a treat. Such men «•> ttnrtry at 1 IMI»I , T_*f Smith, Ouy Griffith, Bob Her and_Joe Johnson will take part In the opener.

thing was farm errier than proverbial marriage bell until—

There wasa stealthy knock at the door. A frightened woman opened it a little way and beheld two suspicious looking men who demanded food and came boldly into the housj. ' These was nothing to do but comply. The visitors were seated at the table and the best In the house was none too good for them, ..The women put on a cheery air, controlled their chattering teefeh as well as possible and talked

,_), each other about their husbands who -would "soon come down to din­ner." "Daddy .will soon be here," was the favorite expression passed back and forth, although all the wo­men were well aware that the hus­bands were not coming until Sunday, and this way Thursday evening, the day of the James holdup.

Of the holdup the women knew nothing, but they were well aware be­cause at the wild accounts of them­selves given by the visiters, -that there was- something wrong.

Having satisfied their hunger the two bandits departed and the "hooso party" gave a unanimous sigh of re­lief. . _ »

But the next day, Friday, tbe two appeared again, demanded to be fod and - given food on which to travel. Their wants were promptly supplied and thQy were given directions how to get to the railroad. That the di­rections were followed is proven by the fact that tomato cans given them were fonnd empty near Connelly's well on the highway.

Personal Interest in Fair ____Jilext_Xea£ •—

A few days after hia visit to the Southern Nevada Fair, President Carl K.J3ray of the Union Pacific System, again passed through"-Las Vegas on his way east.

Mr^Oray_was_njet aLtfeft.statioalhy. ET'G. McGriff, president ot' the Fair Boaird, who presented him with an assortment of fruit from the McGriff ranch. At that time Mr. Cray again expressed his appreviatlon of the fail and his thanks for the courtesies ex­tended him.

A careful study of the above figures will give any . tax payer ah idea of where, the money goes that he pays In atxes. » . •

Of the general taxes levied almost 23% ot the. tax paid goes to the state ln full.

Of the same taxes about 35% goes for schools, in addition to the special taxes levied tor school purposes.

About 1%% to Farm Bureau. About. 14% for roads. A little over 7% to pay ott Lincoln

The James car was found Friday, the day following the holdup, stuck in the scaud on the road along the Colorado river around the hillside to the furmwr Hfflrjaiujtfh.nr . camp at: Black canyon. ' It was driven In Mat-urdayJiy.X._Q-.Prest«ho>wa»-a'-in«tn» ber of the Senator'Pittman party on a visit to the river that day. It took the combined eflforts of Senator and Mrs. Pittman, Mrs. Cox, Mrs. Roy W. Martin, Mrs. Walter R. Bracken, v*'.' Pittman, Bd W. Clerk, Dr. Martin and Mr. Prest to get the car out of the sand into the road. A motion pic­ture of the feat would have been very entertaining it is said.

As the outcome of a hilarious Satur­day evening iat Ladd's Resort there were, several battered fades followed by the arrest at Joe Keate and Mra. Opal Maus.' .\ _ , ,^-^~

In tS6 complaint against Joe Keate, Fraak J. Hosch, a member at' the party, appeared as complaining wit­ness. It appears from the testimony that Hasch Wjuck KTeale'Tn alcoh-troversy over jthe (woman present efttr&ii**? -he lost ot some teeth oh the par: oi Keate. Keate rallied, lt ap­pears, and - administered punishment to Hosch which resulted in-the com­plaint being filed. Keate was found guilty and was fined $50, -which waa paid.

Opal .Mails was arrested on com­plaint ot Rhea Margoh, who asserted she had suffered battery at the hands of the flair defendant. Opal wag also fined $50 and paid.

The third complaint, thp outgrowth of thetrouble at the. resort, was against Sidney Robinson. Mylo Mans; husband of Opal, - was the complain­ing witness and assault and battery was the charge in this case also. Robinson .was found guilty but - got off by paying a tine of $10-

-Ogr-the aecond attempt, with, the two wheel brake car, the speed was increased to 30 miles an? hour„JEhls time, the model wtth rear wheel jirakes only skidded around In a oom Slete circle, causing many, of ihe spec-tafors to seek a' place ot safety. • The four wheel brake Bulcks were then given -their baptism on the greasy surface. Oh the first tent tor them, and with C. S. Howard, Jr. at the—i^heel, the car wee SMjJefl at s rate of 32 miles an hour and brought to.a complete stop, without skidding, in a distance of 12 feet. —Linn Howard; driving another model with brakes all around struck a gelt of 26 miles an hour and stopped in a space of 9 feet. Following this test, one of the new models speeding at a 25 mile ah hour pace, made a sharp left turn and waa stopped on a turn without a semblance of skidding. l":Jf*H24 Buick demonstrator dHTeg by Roy Douglas and having smooth tires on the rear wheels was then brought into. the picture.

Proclamation J issued- by ' Gov. Scrugham call for the observance,of two days—the annual roll call of the Red Cross and Armistice Day—on Sunday, November 11. The following day will alio be given over to the ob­servance.

All members are urged to renew their membership and non-members to join. The proclamation states-

I am confident tbatithe work of the American Red Cross is so well' under­stood that this roll cadi will receive universal public recognition. The work performed during war time is now supplemented by service to the army and navy, relief ln time Of dis­aster, the .promotion of the „ public health and nursing education as well as in the administration of relief ac­tivities which still aippeal to the chari­ty of Americans. In tbe past year a total of nearly ten millions of dollars was thus expended amd for the fisoai year enjlins-June 10, 1924, a budget totaling nearly six millions' has been anthorped:--T...... ... '•• •

The America Red Cross rei the only unofficial body which is al­ways mobilized for any catastrophe of peace and war and highly merits

of the American people. While this day is' essentially one

set apart for the honor of those in our generation who took so glorious a'port in Upholding the best traditions of their country, it is likewise an oc­casion for rejoicing over the vindica­tion of the principles of peace and' Justice for which this notion stands,

is thus an occasion for universal observance annually now" and while our government survives.

[Nevada^ but it iyae by far the brightest future of any.

Its natural agricultural resources, en­hanced greatly by Its abundance of artesian water, wonld .insure % de­velopment exceeding that of.localities in the state in other respects similar, but when is added to that Uie peculiar advantages through proximity to the projected Boulder dam Us importance becomes far greater. ' _

Las Vegas is the only place from whieh the dam may be approached through the construction of a> rail­way. To Nevada this is Important; to Las Vegas It is vital. It will mean a population for that city exceeding that ot Reno and the future will prove tbat it will be tbe metropolis ot Ne­vada. • -

Some persons have hesitated abiiut tying up with the place because pi Its hot climate. But that does not proyj that there will not be enough .pfchors irho Will not stop for climate to place / ln the same relation to other biti„s c-i Nevada tbfti Phoenix bea^s to tlu.ee o. Arizona..
