T-I Owens Quits, Miami Man May Get Highway Unit Post The resignation of Luciui Owens of Holbrook a member of the Arizona Highway Commission wag announced late yesterday by Y. C.

White, executive secretary to Governor Jones. The resignation, sent in and accepted a few hours before expiration of Mr. Owens' term on the commission, it is believed, will clear the way for Governor Jones to appoint a new member of the commis- sion from Gila county for the term beginning today. It has been understood for several months that the governor would name E. H.

McEachren of Miami, a former member of the state senate, to the post. Mr. Owens resigned because of a ruling of the Arizona Supreme Court that an officer must hold office until his successor Is appointed and qualifies after his regular term expires. The court said such an officer could not resign. imcnt Rohh and H.

Venus, Jupiter, Mars and Saturn already are close together, and Uranus soon will join them. Neptune and Pluto will remain aloof. Dr.

Edwin F. Carpenter, director of Steward Observatory at the University of Arizona, said the five planets will be nearest February 21, and then following their ordained courses will move away. "Rarely are the planets bunched so closely together in the western sky," he said. "I do not have the figures on it handy but it is said to be a coincidence that happens but once in a lifetime." construe- J' avK will be eliminat- 'he curves and in- inspected Jhe Native Arizona Resident Dies FLORENCE, Jan.
