dicated that the Oregonians would
have things pretty much their owr
way. The Kennewick line showed ur
particularly weak and on offensive
the local backs were unable to make
consistent gains against their heav.
ier opponents. The first real class
shown by the locals was near the end
of the first quarter when the line
stiffened and held the visitors fol
downs with the ball but few feet
from the goal line. A blocked punt
soon afterward, however, gave the
ball to Milton and it was rushed ov-
er for a touchdown.
Near the close of the second quar-
ter Kennewick opened up an aerial
attack which kept the ball in the
visitors territory to the end of the
half. Kennewick followed. the same
method of attack in the last hall
and, succeeded by series of forward
passes, to carry the ball over for q
touchdown and victory.
Friday of this week the team goes
to Prosser.

Women and Children are Not Per-

Many people apparently have the
mistaken idea that women and child

but all persons regardless Of age or
sex are required to have a hunting
license if they hunt.
The next big date on the hunters

" one morning down in

guide who was showing
us our way through the jungle
stopped and said:
This stream usually is full Of
alligators. Wait minute before
we ford it.. I'll fire a few shots
in the water. Then If there are
any Of the big fellows in there
they will make for shore and we
can cross in safety"
Bang! Bang! went his gun.
The tpples caused by the bullets
hitting the water were the only
disturbance. So our guide said:
Come along. It's all right"

off my boots, tucked Bunny in

waded.
What a day we had! We saw
polparrots and monkeys and ali

when we turned to come back
at night the only shadow at the
end Of a perfect day was the
thought that we had to cross that
stream where the alligators lived.
We came to it--just at sunset.

It seemed hopeless to try to
get over. but the guide grinned
as he said: 'I'H go over on that
tree and howl like a dog. When
the alligators run for me, you get
across"
He climbed the tree and in a
moment we heard the bowling of
what sounded exactly like a dog.
"Now," I trembling said, II

We reached the other side
safely and waited for our guide.
Suddenly we heard pistol shots
and then in a few moments across

How did you manage to get

why did you howl like a dog to
help US ford the stream?"
oh" he laughed. That's an

alligators hear such bowling they
think their young are in trouble
