SUNNYSIDE HERE SUNDAY
With Old Timers in Game K-R Team
Puts One 0ver-Yedica Pitches
Great Game

With a strictly all-hone lineup the
Kennewick- Richland team struck a
winning stride Sunday and left Nab
ton in the cellar position by a score
of 9 to 4. Yedica, who did the twirling
for the home team, was invincible. He
allowed only four scattered hits and
chalked up 16 strikeouts. In the fifth,
sixth and seventh frames he struck
out nine men straight. In the sew
enth he delivered only nine balls, ev-
cry one of which was a strike. Phil
Schireman did the receiving and play
ed a good game.
The K-R batsmen found Zyph early
in the game and hammered him for
IL safeties and fell for only four
strikeouts.
Next Sunday Sunnyside plays here
and the local boys hope to upset the
dope sheet by scoring another victory.

TESTS SHOW
TWELVE PINTS

Experiments Prove Theory that

According to a statement given out
today by Henry ID. James, general
manager of the Walla Walla Gas, Oil
& Pipe Line company, natural gas as
it flows from the company's two wells
in this county is carrying a gallon
and a half Of high power gasoline to
every 1000 cubic feet. This is four
times the quantity of gasoline content
determined by earlier analyses.
1t has been generally known for
some time that the gas has been get
ting wetter but IL pints is consider
ably in excess of the estimated guam
tity that it carried. Mr.. James says
the new percentage is not guess but
was obtained by careful tests Of the
gas from the larger well, conducted
over period Of four days.
Mr.. James believes the results of
these tests will lead to the speedy
closing of negotiations for the erec-
