PACKED UP
BUT STALLED
Wenatchee Editor to Tour
Yakima Valley Instead
of California

All packed up and nowhere to go,
is the predicament in which Rufus
Woods, the genial editor Of the Wen
atchee World finds himself. Accom-
panied by Mrs. Woods and friends,
Mr.. Woods left Wenatchee Sunday
for an automobile trip to California,
AS a reulst Of the snowstorm they
are now "marooned' in the Yakima
valley. They can get neither to Cal
ifornia or back home.
The party spent Monday night by
the side of the Hanford road II miles
north of Richland. Snow drifted in
to the carburetor, it froze and the
party was forced to spend the night
in the car. The following day they
drove to Walla Walla only to find that
the highway to Pendleton was block
ed with deep drifts on the Weston
hills and would not be cleared for
several days.
Mr.. Woods and party arrived IN
Kennewick yesterday in the hope OF
reaching tHc OOiuiuUld highway W
way Of the Kennewick- Umatilla cut
off Altho open tho day before, Tues
day nights wind and snow blocked 1t
ana the ice in the river put the Ply
mouth Umatilla ferry out of commits
sion.
''Well, / guess we will spend out
time touring the Yakima Valley, the
only place, it seems, where the roads
are passable," said Mr.. Woods when
informed of the condition of the hill
road and he headed his sedan up the
valley.
Mr.. Woods is being talked of as
congressman from the fifth district in
the event Congressman Webster is
appointed to the federal bench.

POWER LINE
p. p. & L. Kennewick- PEN
dleton Line Goes by
Way Of Plymouth


In spite of unfavorable Weather l.
A. Stafford reports satisfactory pro-
gress on the survey for the p. r. &
a.. cSmpanysa- posssrs .1ine from Ken
newick to Pendleton. The survey
ing crew is working out of Kenne-
wick.
The line will leave the sub-station
here along the line Of the road half
mile east Of Washington street, to
its intersection with the state high
way. There it will turn west out
over the south Highlands to an in
tersection with the Plymouth road.
From there it will follow the general
line of the road to the Columbia
River. On the Oregon side the power
line will go thru Umatilla, Hermis-
ton, Echo, Stanfield and Pendleton.
Down the river it will be tied into the
company's Hood River line.

new line will give electric service to
the residents of the south Highlands
and distribution line will be ex-
tended down the Washington side
from Plymouth to serve Paterson,
Carley and Whitcofnb. In this terri
tory the building of the new line will

GIVE CHILDREN
SQUARE DEAL
DIR. Hedger Pleads with Par
ents to Make Children
Physically Fit

Altho conflicting attractions and in.
clement weather detracted from the
attendance a fair-sized audience o1
mothers, with a scant sprinkling oi
daddies, heard the lecture OF DR.. Car.
oline Hedger Monday eve1ing at the
High School
Speaking on the aHealth of the
School Child, DR.. Hedger said tha,
childhood is the time to build for the
long haul in life. The physical strain
and energy required by the ordinary
man for the long haul of rearing and
supporting family is greater thar
that of soldier.
"To prepare for the long haul in
life, which comes after the age of ma
turity and when the boys and girls
of today have become the fathers and
mothers of tomorrow, is the grea,
responsibility which rests upon the
parents and young people," said the
speaker.
Every boy and girl must have good
bones, good teeth, muscles capable OF
being developed and a clear head
Every parent should have in his
minds eye a picture of a 100 per cent
child. Such a picture constantly be-
fore the parents will have the effect
of producing high grade children.
Poor living conditions and over
strain will produce the man of five
feet eight inches which should have
been six feet tall. Improper food will
stunt the growth of the brain as well
as of the body.
There are three fundamentals re-
garding the health of every boy and
girl which should be followed Have
picture in your mind of 100 per
cent child physically, have persis-
tence and determination in the forma-
ton of right habits in eating, sleep
ing and working.
Meat, potatoes and white bread will
never make boy or girl. There isn't
the stuff in them to do it.
DR.. Hedger declared that the mo-
theirs of Kennewick would be doing
a worth while work were they to play
bridge less and scrub the school house
more and that some of the farmers
would do well to turn some of their
attention from the fattening of hogs
to the fattening of their children.
DIR Hedger highly praised the work
of the nutrition classes in the local
schools and urged parents to coop
crate with those in charge.
Mrs. B. B. Buchanan, director of
the Washington tuberculosis as
sociation and Mss Monica Weber,
Benton County nurse, accompanied
DIR. Hedger here. Mrs. Buchanan and
Miss Weber were guests of the
Home Economics department of the
Woman's club at six o'clock dinner
at the home of Mrs. Guy j. Hayden.
DR.. Hedger declined the invitation on
account of fatigue.

Kennewick High Basketball
ers Finish Ahead of Or
ting Cardinals
VICTORY DUE TO
sOWARD'S THROWING
Hardest Game Of Year Ex-
pectedwith Walla Walla
High School Tonight

The Orting Cardinals, tOuted as the
champion basketball team Of the
Northwest, were defeated here Tues
day evening by the speedy five Of the
Kennewick High School. The final
score was q to 20 and at no time
during the game was there margin
Of more than four points between the
teams. At one time the Cardinals
led by 10 to but the half closed
With score of 10 to 10.
The Cardinals claimed they were
handicapped by the Kennewick floor,
which is smaller than regulation. They
were frequently penalized and Ken
newick's victory was due to Sowsrd's
superiority in converting free throws
into goals. He made Is baskets out
Of possible 10 while the Cardinal
tossers converted only two out of 10
chances.
Without doubt the game was the
fastest ever played in the local gym
and Coach Kralowec's lads gave a
splendid account of theselves. On ac-
count Of their weight and endurance
the champs have but little difficulty
in romping away from most high
school teams.
The Cardinals, which are being sent
BY the Tacoma Chamber of Commerce
to take part in the national tournas
ment in Kansas City, until they hit
the Yakima Valley, claimed record
of % games won out of "a played.
In Yakima they were defeated by q
picked city team, 40 to 38 and last
night the Walla Walla High team
trounced them 20 to II
Defeat of the Cardinals gives Ken
newick record of only one defeat
this year. AS result of careless
playing they lost one game to Benton
City but easily defeated the same
team on their home floor Friday by
81 to 16.
In Walla Walla tonight Kennewick
expects the hardest game of the year
when they meet Coach Zimmerman's
fast quintet. Walla Walla to date is
undefeated and comparative scores in
dicate that they are stronger than
Kennewick. They defeated Pasco
81 to Ia, while the best Kennewick
could do was 16 to 8.
Tuesday evening Of next week Pas
co plays here and the result of this
game will determine which of the two
will represent this district in the Sum
nyside tournament.
The Kennewick girls refused to let
Benton City have basket in Z Fri
days game. The score was 20 to D.
The girls play the Walla Walla Y.
". c. A. tonight.
One of the closest games played
here this season was the tussle be-
Ween the Kennewick second team
and the Finley-Hover team. Three
extra periods were necessary to break
tied score. The second won 35 to 81.
