SCORE BIG HIT
Professor and Mrs. A. l.. Melander
Entertain Friends i'm a Novel
and Interesting Way

Professor and Mrs. A. L. Melander
entertained a number of friends at
their home on Campus avenue last
Monday evening at a party which
was as unique as it was enjoyable
On their arrival the guests were es-
corted to seats, arranged as in a
moving picture show, while Prof
Steele circulated among them dis
tributing paper bags containing pop
corn, peanuts, stick candy and
chewing gum.
After all had arrived several reels
of films, taken by the motion pic
tCre camera recently purchased by
the college, were thrown on a screen
arranged in the front of the rooms.
Most of the pictures had been taken
by professional operator, but one
reel had been taken by Professor
NTe!ander and Miss Miner, and the.
results secured by the amateurs were
even better than those by the pro-
feeaiontl, the pictures being better
timed and showing more clearly.
All of the reels were good and
showed many phases of college life
and work, including the cadet corps
drilling on Rogers field; the band
Swing a concert, Turk Monroe clear
ing the bar in the pole vault; the
start of a 100-yard dash, students
at work on campus day and leaving
the Ferry Hall dining room, work on
the college farm and in the labora-
tories, the procession and auction of
1--we stock arranged by the Saddle
and Sirloin club, and many other
ct'iege activities.
After the movies the guests were
served with ice cream and maca-
rooms and spent an hour in social
q ct and congratulating the host
, d hostess on the originality and
cleverness of the evenings enter

WHEAT HARVEST ON

Binders VIII BE Cutting Bumper
Crop of Fall Wheat Soon---Sea-
son Advanced and Stand
Most Excellent

Within the fortnight binders will
be operating in the vicinity of Pull
man unless the weather man changes
his tactics and puts an end to his
excellent ripening weather abrupt
ly. Fall wheat is beginning to turn
color and a few days more of sun
shine will transform the magnificent
fields of fall wheat from green to a
golden hue. From every part of the
county, but more especially around
Pullman, come reports of almost
phenomenal stands of wheat, and
experienced farmers predict that the
Whitman county output of wheat,
ESTIMATED conservatively, will ex-
coed that of last year by from one
to one and half millions of bushels
due, to an appreciable extent, to the
greatly increased acreage in wheat
this year.

FIRST PEACHES
FROM WAWAWAI
FOR First Time on Record Snake
RIVER Grower Beats California
Fruitmen TO Pullman Market

When Thos. Batty, Wawawai
truit raiser, last Sunday skirmished
through his big orchard and found
enough near-ripe peaches to fill a
pox' he secured prima facie evidence
OF the earliest fruit season in the
history of the Snake river region
The box of peaches was brought to
Pullman Monday and placed on the
retail market, thus establishing an
other record in that they were Of
Tered for sale before any California
peaches had reached the local mar
ket. Snake river fruit men also had
string beans on the market here
ahead of the California beans. and
expect to duplicate the feat with
later fruits and vegetables. 1t is un-
doubtedly the earliest season in the
Palouse country for many years, and
at least two weeks ahead of the Or
binary year. The entire cherry crop
at Snake river points is picked and
shipped, while at this time last wear
the Wawawai and Almota growers
were in the midst of the cherry har-
vest All fruit crops give evidence
of bumper yield.

scheduled to go full nine innings,
the contest was stopped upon the
advice of the lodge physician, sup
ported by the more corpulent Ma
sons, at the close of the fifth inning,
Ialthough at that time the score was
tied at l l all. Much heretofore I'M
discovered baseball talent was UNI
covered in the battle, the special
feature being the wild baserunning
of Professor George Watt. The
pharmacist always managed to hit
the ball hard enough to get to first
base, and that was the equivalent of
score for the Fats" in each case,
as Watt never stopped until he had
crossed the pan. Dubbed "Ty" Cobb
by his teammates and opponents,
Watt gave the famous baseball play
er no cause to regret the association
of his cognomen with the Pullman
base-stealer
Professor Kimbrough was pressed
into service by the Fats" because

and saved the game for his team
mates when he made a wonderful
running catch of hard-hit fly ball,
