Improvements at Benson Union High School Highlighted
The Benson Union High School has undergone extensive upgrades this year, with painting, renovations, and new equipment to benefit students and staff. Principal H Q Robertson leads a continuous improvement effort with teachers and pupils, while grounds are prepared for baseball, basketball, and tennis. A new woodworking setup and line shaft enhance the Manual Training department, under instructor Walter S Gray, and Hd Haynes oversees machinery overhaul. An exhibit of the Arizona silver service for the battleship Arizona will run Oct 23–28 at Col Allen T Bird’s Nogales committee, with the Steinfeld store hosting due to central location and large windows. The service costs top $8,000, projected to reach $10,000 with transport.

Tucson Man Favors Benson Cutoff Route
Dr. A W Parker and Dr W A Baker, candidates for Pima County Supervisor, tout the Benson Cutoff as the county’s most vital road. They note the road would connect Benson to Tombstone Bisbee and Rodeo New Mexico, with 51 miles total and 21 built, 16 in Cochise, 14 miles remaining in Pima. The Vail to county line segment is faulty but fixable cheaply. They claim the highway will spur commerce and tourism, delivering ten dollars return per dollar spent.
