Business Women
Come to Caldwell
Six Hundred Eastern
Delegates to Be the
City's Guests.

Six hundred eastern. middle-western
and southern professional and business
women will be gueste of Caldwell next
July 8. according to word received
here by Jess Gowen, secretary of the
Caldwell Kiwanis club. The women
travelling west to the national conven-
tion at Portland in special trains will
stop over here long enough to get an
idea of southwestern Idaho. Invita-
ton was extended to them through
the Kiwanis club last summer when
local members of the Professional
and Business Women's club attended
the convention at Chattanooga, Tenn.
Plans for their entertainment are
somewhat nebulous at present. 1t is
not known how long the trains can be
stopped here but it is believed that
ample time will be afforded the visitors
to see something of the Boise valley.

CALDWELL HIGH
HOLDS POSITION
Hoopsters Win from Me-
ridian; Are Tied
With Boise

The Caldwell high school virtually
cinched tie with Boise for the dis
trict basketball championship when
Coach Berry team won from Merid-
ian on Meridian's difficult floor Tues
day evening. 54-47. Boise plays at
Nampa tonight and Nampa has game
with the locals next Tuesday on the
Caldwell floor. On paper, both Cald-
we'll and Boise should be returned
winners. thereby continuing the tie
with Boise and Caldwell quintets hav-
ing lost but one game each to each
other.
Plans for the play-of have not been
perfected as yet. Efforts are being
made to arrange a three-game series,
one game each at Caldwell and Boise,
and the third and deciding game. if
it is necessary, to be played on neu-
trail floor.
Caldwell high has had the expected
difficulty winning from the Meridian
Prune Pickers. While the score at the
end of the half was 30-lS with Berry's
team leading, and despite the fact that
the Caldwell quintet was always a
few points ahead during the contest.
goals came so thick and fast that the
outcome was always in doubt. In the
last minutes of play. Meridian threat
ened to take the lead when four goals
were converted in rapid succession
from the center of the floor.
Jensen, as usual. was high point
man for the Caldwell team. E. Low
ell played in the best form he has
shown for some time and converted a
number of shots.
Payette will no. be here Friday ev-
ening as was previously announced to
play the Caldwell team. As result
of this defalcation, no game will be
played this week end by the Caldwell
club. The entire team probably will
go to Nampa to witness the Nampa-
Boise contest. Next Tuesday, Nampa
will play here, the final game of the
season.

Coyotes Reverse
Result With Star
Hoopsters Take Real
Battle in Second Con-
test, 54-22.

College OF Idaho hoopsters compile
ty upset the dope and walloped the
Star aggregation Wednesday evening
before a good sized and uproarous
crowd at the high school gymnasium
by 54-22 score. The first half was a
real football game with Star on the
short end OF bloody battle. Only
one foul was called in this session but
the contest kept the crowd on its toes.
In the second half. the complexion
OF the game changed but the same in
terest manifested in the early session
continued. Compton was the local lu-
minary with 10 inheld goals. His
floor work, particularly his guarding
OF the dangerous White, was a fea-
ture of the game Jackson was out
because of the college wrestling meet
Saturday night but the Coyote de-
Tense with Myers and B. Lowell at
guard, performed capably.
Tonight the collegians go to Boise
for the third and deciding game OF
the series with the Boise Y. NJ. c. A.
team. Star, not content with the re-
suit OF Wednesdays contest. is to
play again on the high school floor.
probably Monday night, in another
deciding game of a three game SER

Payette Wallops
Emmett Quintet
Win District Champion
ship Here Friday by
24-12 Score

Emmett's high schools basketball
team. tied with Payette for the dis
trict championship. was no match for
the Apple Pickers when the two teams
met here Friday night to play off the
tie. Payette won by a 24-l2 score.
But even that lop-sided tally does not
indicate the superiority of the Payette
team. Almost every one of Emmett's S
counters was lucky shot while Pay
ette repeatedly worked the ball thru
the Emmett defense for easy tries.
From the first minute there was no
question as to the outcome of the
game. Payette ran up II points be-
fore Emmett scored and demonstrated
a machine coupled with an uncanny
ability to follow the ball on defense
that completely upset their rangier
opponents. The first half ended l5-4
with Payettc leading.
Neither team looked as strong as
the Caldwell high school club. how
ever. Play was slow with each team
using the FIVE offense and defense
Payette resorted to bounce pass to
break through the Emmett defense
for close shots with uniform success
out-of-bounds was insisted upon by
the visiting coaches and the game was
considerably showed up.
Boise and Caldwell continue to be
tied in this district. 1t is quite likely
that one game or a series of three
games must be played to determine
the championship of this section.

HARRINGTON OUT
F0R HARMONY IN
BOISE PROJECT
President of Association
Board Outlines Plans
and Appeals for Co.
operation.

In an oper statement to the settlers
on the Boise project, Fred Harrington.
president of the executive board of the
Payette- Boise Water Users Associa-
ton. this week made an appeal for
harmony and united support for a
common program that drainage may
be obtained for seeped project lands.
He said in full:
1T seems fitting and proper at this
time to answer and make clear to the
settlers our position in regard to vital
questions now confronting us all. The
election held last November as to
whether you desired a district or to
continue as an association was decis-
i've. and il would seem that this should
end strife and hard feeling for at
least a year; however, we seem to
have factional troubles again.
Thinking that perhaps l could in
some way help. l allowed my name to
stand as a director and at the board
meeting was elected president of the
board. We have since attended a
meeting at Salt Lake where IS dele
gates from as many different govern
ment projects in the west. and two
representatives OF the reclamation SER
vice were in attendance. AT this
meeting Mr.. Dorsey and myself ex-
planned how you were situated and a
permanent organization was formed
OF five directors, of which your asso-
ciation received one. Resolutions
were passed favoring temporary relief
and 40 year plan of payment. Ten
state legislatures were requested to
memorialize congress for this at once,
and Idaho has passed this unanimous
~. The organization then sent rep
resentative to work with Mr.. Magee
al Washington, d. C., to secure the
passage OF these resolutions or as
much as could be secured at this short
session and to be in shape to look af-
ter our needs at the next session.
Your board, realizing the vital need
OF drainage at once. has agreed on a
plan, but with two boards in conflict,
with kilograms and letters going to
our representatives in congress oppos-
ing us on anything we try to do, make
it very doubtful as to what we can Sc
cure
I'VE ask, in all fairness, Of you peo-
pie on both sides. chance to carry
out our plans. We do not need law
suits or lawyers. we need relief with
drainage now, not after we arc drown
ed out. Now let's get together as
friends and neighbors and get some
thing done and make this project
good place to live in, not continua-
ton OF lawsuits as in the past.
Il hold no hard feelings against
anyone in disagreement with me, and
do not question your honesty of pur-
pose, but il looks like a crime to de-
lay or hinder any plans for relief.
The cities and towns tributary
should realize the importance OF har-
mony for the good OF all and not ad-
vising trouble and delays or making
light of a very serious question
