YAKIMA GETS
BIG SURPRISE
Lads From Valleys Big City
Are Unable to Score
on Kennewick

Kennewick's High school football
team staged a wonderful comeback
Saturday afternoon on the home field
when they held Yakima High to a
scoreless tie.
Coach Kralowec and his players
may have been prepared for the out
come of the game but it took every
body else by surprise and not the
least surprised were Coach Schact-
ler and his boys from Yakima.
This was Kenewick's first game at
home and judged from the scores
of the Walla Walla and Pendleton
games, local fans figured they were
due for another trimming in view of
the fact that Yakima is rated with
the best high school teams of the
state.
|. But following the Walla Walla
game Coach Kralowec ordered a gen.
eral shakeup and since that time he
has been quitely plugging the weak
spots in this years lineup. AS re-
suit Saturdays game instead of being
fiasco was hard fought battle
from start to finish. With the excep-
tion of hanging onto the ball Ken
newick outplayed the visitors and
doubtless would have scored had it
not been for their inability to handle
punts at critical times.
The game was defensive one thru
out as neither team was able to make
consistent gains. Kennewick made
first downs five times to Yakima's s
four. Yakima made three unsuccess-
full attempts at field goals and Ken
newick one. Kennewick's goal line
was never seriously threatened and
only once did Kennewick come with
in striking distance for touchdown.
Both teams relied almost entirely
upon straight football. Few forward
passes were attempted and each team
completed one. Kennewick's line was
a stone wall and nearly all of Yaki-
mas. yardage was made around end
and even this play failed after the
first quarter. Kennewick could do
nothing around end, her best play
being line bucks with Hudnall carry
ing the ball.
As a punter Howard Beste is show
ing up as one Of the best ever de-
veloped in the local school. On every
exchange of boots he gained ground
over his Yakima rival excepting when
his team mates fumbled and permitted
Yakima to recover.
The game was one of the cleanest
ever played here. Kennewick came
through without a penalty and Yaki-
ma was set back for offside playing
twice.
In the first period Perry, Yakima
quarter was carried from the field.
The report that he had three broken
ribs was incorrect. An ex-ray exam
ination showed that no ribs were
broken or cracked but only strained.
Kennewick made no substitutions. al
though it was discovered next day
that Beste had one rib broken and
another cracked. He will be out of
uniform for two weeks but will be
back in the lineup for the Arnis.ice
Day game.
At 2:30 Friday afternoon Kenne-
wick will play its second home game
against Columbia College, of Milton.
While this is not one of the inter-
scholastic series it promises to be a
lively contest.

CHINKS ARE WARY
Pheasants are Plentiful but Only Few
Hunters Bag Reduced Limit

If one were to prepare digest
of all the stories which have been
circulating since the upland bird sea-
son opened, Saturday, the result
would probably be that local sports
men are agreed that Chinese pleas
ants are plentiful this year but are
mighty hard to get.
This years limit has been lowered
from five to three Chinks. There
were hundreds of hunters afield Sat
urday, Sunday and Monday, but those
who got the limit were greatly in the
minority. Undoubtedly there are
fewer Hungarian partridges in the fr-
rigated sections this year than last.
1t is reported that the Huns have
taken to the hills and are now to be
found in the wheat fields.
The next three Saturdays and Sun
days are hunting days.

that showings in the Alfalfa well con-
tinue to be encouraging. The gas
pressure is gradually increasing as
are the oil showings. The formation
has again become exceedingly hard
and the drill is going down only about
18 inches each "a hours. Mr.. Vogel
believes the drill is now pounding
on the cap rock which overlies real
production.

WHEN the bill to make the office of Territorial superintendent of schools came up in the recent legislature many solons voted it down, alleging that it would place the schools in politics" That this is the veriesf bunk is shown by the fact that until such officers were elected in the States, the schools were always in politics. There is no way of filling ar office quite so good as letting the peo pie have say as to who shall be em ployed.

 The distress of urinary troubles,
