The name Big Horn canyon would be sult able were it not for the fact that this name is more appropriately applied to fhe canyon which the river has cut through the Big Horn mountains and this usage has been approved by the United States geographic board. The name Wind Riveer canyon is not sat- \isfactory as the term Wind.River is applied only te the headwater branch of the Big Horn river which les above tiverton, some 25 miles south of the canyon. As the name Big Horn is irea@y ty use for another canyon and the Wind river ts not appropriate, it seems best to propose a new name, hind Bea Ogwa (Shoshono for big river) has béen selected by the geographic oard.” The bulletin calls attention te this because right now, when this canyon 1s going to be in the minds af the peo ple and referred to by the press as never before, is a good time to begin nai commission will but adopt th. nd the press will fall Into Mne it will be but a short time until the people will know this to be Bea Ogwa canyon. The newsbaper man who wents to do things in the right way is general- ly yery careful about getting names right. Wherefore if he is to be right, he cannot print it otherwise Beq Ogwa canyon. iad —_—_—__ Bad Weather Breaks to Mar Harding Visit DAYTONA, Ma, March I1—(By The Associnted Press)—President Harting today encountered the first bad weather of his vacation trip.
