.KENNEWICK HIGH
DROPS FIRST GAME
Locals are Beaten by Oregon
Champs at Pendleton by Mar
gin of Four Points
(By R. Warnock, Sporting Editor of
Kennewick High School.)

(By r. Warnock, Sporting Editor of
Kennewick High School.)
The Kennewick football squad mo-
tored to Pendleton last Saturday where
they Were defeated by the last year
Oregon champs. 1t was hard fought
game throughout, although the play
ing on both sides was ragged at times.
Kennewick had several opportunities
to score but costly fumbles and penal
ties kept them from putting over the
pigskin. Pendleton scored a touch
down the first quarter, but from that
time the local boys were the aggres-
sors. Seward scored drop-kick from
the thirty-yard line in the second quar-
ter. During the last quarter Kenne-
wick made yardage through Pendle-
tons line almost at will, and the whis-
tie blew with the ball on Pendleton's
six-yard line.
The boys played a good game, but
inexperienced men on the line caused
the defense to be weak, and allowed
the Pendleton squad to make big gains.
Waldorf and Hawkins brought the
crowd to their feet several times by
circling the ends for fifteen or twen-
ty yards.
Due to changes in the schedule,
Sunnyside will be unable to play here
Friday as was announced, so the team
will journey to Walla Walla where
they will battle with the husky Wa Hi
eleven.
Arrangements are being made to
bring the squad from Milton, Oregon,
here on the 14th of this month. They
have fast team and should give us a
good game. Sunnyside plays here on
the 21st, and Prosser will be down on
the 18th.
The team is going good and with
the support Of the town will make a
good showing this season. Richard
Shaughnessy, two year tackle, is now
back in school and will be valuable
addition to the line.
The lineup for the Pendleton game
was as follows: Center, Rasmussen;
guards, Clodfelter, Bergman; tackles,
Halliday, Waters; ends, Witt, Bass;
backfield, Capt. Waldorf, Hawkins,
Seward and johnson.

ERROR ON ALL BANK NOTES
Reference to "The Seal Of the Treas
ury Of North America" 10
ManifestIy Absurd.

Every bank note issued in the Uni
ted States today bears an error on it's
face of which few are aware. The
same error has appeared on every note
circulated since the time of the Con-
tinental congress, but no effort ever
has been made to change 1t. Some
where on the face Of these bills ap-
pears the seal Of the treasury depart
ment, with an abbreviation OF a
Latin legend meaning "The Seal Of
the Treasury of North America"
That is the error. Such statement
is audaciOus and never has been true"
says a writer In the All America Re
view, published by All America Cables,
Inc. In explanation of the error, the
writer says: "The fact that this legend
was adopted in 1878 indicates posi-
BILE breadth of view Of the Continental
congress that may have included the
English possessions on the northern
part of the continent, and constitutes
perhaps continuing evidence of the
aspirations of our fOrefathers to en-
brace the entire continent i'm the or
ganizatiOn of the new republic"
The Treasury department seal is
older by six years than the great seal
of the republic.

FaIIaey About vioIins.

II has been asserted. and the state
ment has gained considerable credence,
that makers of violins often break
The finished product into pieces and
put it together again i'm order to i'm
prove the quality of the violin. This
ingenious principle of manufacture is
pronounced absurd by every author
ity upon the violin. If these super
stitions had any foundation in fact, it
would be an almost hopeless task for
a maker of vOlins to try to sell his pro-
duct. He would find himself forced to
lend his newly made fiddles for year
or so to some such organization as
boys boarding school, where they
would be certain of rough treatment
At the end of this conditioning"
period he would reclaim the instru-
ments, put them through first-aid
treatment in the repair shop, and sell
them as old masters.
