PULLMAN HIGH SCHOOL
WINS CHAMPIONSHIP
Local Football Boys Have Made u
Remarkable Record Under Train
ing of Coach Hinderman

The Pullman high school football
team wound up the season of 1912
last Saturday with an easy victory
over the Rosalia huskies in the final
game for the county championship.
The contest was played on Rogers
field in the presence of a good sized
and enthusiastic crowd, and while
the score was "a to 0 in favor of the
blue and gray, all present were more
than satisfied with the exhibition.
The field was dry and fast and Coach
Hinderman' pupils pulled off be-
wildering variety of open plays and
novel formations which swept their
opponents off their feet.
The visitors had a heavy line and
some first class material, but could
not fathom the Pullman formations
nor gain consistently when they had
the ball. Boyd Schlaefer put up
fine defensive game and all his team
mates worked hard and showed
plenty of pluck in the face of over
whelming odds.
BY this victory Pullman high
earned the permanent possession OF
the handsome silver cup offered by
the First National bank of Pullman
tn the team winning the county
championsh ip for three successive
years. The team has made a remark
able record this year, as is shown by
the scores of the following schedule:
Pullman, Z: Lewis and Clark, 0.
Pullman, IS; Wenatchee, 6.
Pullman. 1872; Garfield, o.
Pullman, go; Tekoa, 0.
Pullman, So; Lewiston, 0.
Pullman. 94 Rosalia, 0.
Total points for Pullman, 54o'
total points against Pullman. g.
In addition to the above games
Colfax, Palouse and oakesdale for
feited to Pullman.
A challenge was issued to the EV-
erett high school team to play d
game to decide the state champion
shin but the boys of the Sound city
declined on the ground that their
schedule was full and that they did
not care to engage in post-season
contest.
This gives Pullman a right 10
claim the state high school cham
pionship and to say that the citizens
are proud of the work of the team
and of Coach Hlnderman Is putting
Il very mildly.

time had the link" of the local
shooters. In IL events Harpole took
five firsts, and shot an average of
So per cent. He was hard pressed
by YanDorn of this city, who pulled

per cent.

SUCCESSFUL OPEN MEETING
OF CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
Many Short Addresses were Made Prasinq
work OF the Organization and Suggesting
New Lines of Effort for the Future

annual open meeting OF the
chamber of Commerce was held in
the H. of p. hall Tuesday evening
ana was thoroughly enioyed by the
80 members and guests who were
present At the business session the
semi-annual reports of the secretary
and treasurer were read. as follows.
Report of Secretary
since our semi-annual meeting in
May, 1912, there have been "a meet
ings of the Chamber, with an aver
age attendance of "a, and 81 meet
lngs of the trustees. During this
time we have lost 10 mem bers
through removal, and gained %, a
net gain of three members. The
present membership is 1872.
We have sent out from the office
about $500 pieces of mall matter. OF
this number about 1900 were pieces
OF descriptive literature, and 500 die
tated letters, $50 of the latter being
replies to personal inquiries of per-
sons who were looking for a place to
locate.
The principle activities of the
Chamber during the past six months
have been the entertainment in June
OF the Observation-Disclosures Depart
ment of the g. A. r. Encampment:
the Whitman Co. exhibit at the Spo-
Kane Interstate Fair; the school gar
den fair, and the promotion of the
Hog Show. Our Cham Der has also
actively co-operated with the FEEDER
ated Clubs of the Inland Empire
the daho-Washington Development
League, the Whitman County FEEDER
alton Of Commercial Clubs, and
other organizations of the Inland
Empire. But most important of ali
has been the work done in creating
wholesome spirit of cooperation on
the part of the citizens of Pullman
and vicinity to make our community
what it ought to be.
Looking forward to the work of
the coming term, we have several
important matters under considera-
ton, such, for instance, as the MAX
ing of the Hog Show of such import
ance that it will become an annual
event, the development next year of
the School Garden Fairs throughout
the county, the creation of some
plan in conjunction with the
churches and the lodges to give ade-
quate attention to all charity work
in the city, and the realization of the
dream of a new Northern Pacific de-
pot. Many other questions of bust
ness of vital Importance to the COM
nunity will develop during the CON-
ing months, and to meet the oppor-
tunities and to secure the best re-
suits we need the hearty and toler-
cpt cooperation of every citizen of
Pullman, whether member of the
Chamber or not a member. Our
membership is larger than at any
time in it's history, but number of
members is not the only thing neces-
sary for the best work. We must
have due appreciation for the things
we are trying to do, and the resolute
attention of every man, woman and
child to secure the desired results.

Secretary.
