NEW PUMPS
WATER PARK
New System Will Provide
Ample Irrigation at
Small Cost

The City Park commission has COM
pleted the installation of two pumps
in the main irrigation canal for the
purpose of supplying water to the
park.
The larger of the pumps was de-
signed and built by w. C. Muldrow,
manager of the Columbia Irrigation
company. 1t will be used to lift the
water from the canal to a conveyor
which carries the water to the south
side Of the park from where the en-
tire area can be irrigated by flooding.
The smaller pump will supply wat
er for sprinkling system along the
canal embankment. A pipe line has
been laid along the enbankment with
stationary sprinklers at frequent in
tervals. This will provide practically
an automatic sprinklink system for
the enbankment which will be seed
ed to lawn this week.
F. C. Woods is employed as park
superintendent and the work Of seed
ing the park will be carried on as
rapidly ss possible. The commission
hopes to have two and a half acres
IN lawn by the end of the summer.

ficient evidence to establish the iden-
tity of the thief and no arrests have
been made. The clue upon which the

a false one.

GAME GOES TO
THIRTEENTH
Four Extra Innings Neces.
sary for Kennewick to
Win from Richland

The days when baseball in the Col
umbia River valley was a reality
days when frequently extra innings
were necessary to decide the pitching
battles between Murray Crane OF
Knnewick and Art Henning of White
Bluffs, were recalled in Sundays
game between Kennewick and Rich
land. 1t was not until the last hall
of the thirteenth inning that Kenne-
wick nosed out victory by two tc
one score.
Nosed out is right, for the win
ming run was scored when two were
out and there were two trikes on the
batter. A wild pitch by Berg, who had
hurled splendid game, spelled de.
feat for Richland.
Richland scored their lone run in
the first inning when Muncey went tc
first on an error by Hudnall, stole
second, was sacrificed to third and
came home on Watson's hit. Kenne-
wick never had a glimpse at home
plate until the eighth when Anderson
singled, pilfered second, and scored
on Gascoigne's smash to right field
The beginning Of the end was started
in the thirteenth when Copeland pol.
ed two-bagger, was sacrificed Ia
third and won the game on Berg's
wild pitch.
Both pitchers did excellent work.
After the third inning Glispey was
, invincible and held Richland to eight
hits while Berg allowed nine. This is
the second time these teams have met
this season and each is credited with
a two to one victory.
While Kennewick and Richland
were staging their diamond battle
here Hanford was taking Benton City
into camp on their home grounds, s
to 5. And now, all same shaking dice
one tie all tied. Five hundred all ur
and down the list with each team
having two wins and two losses. Next
Sunday Kennewick goes to Hanford
and Benton City plays at Richland
As the result of Sundays game
Manager Penny Ferrell thinks SO
much of his team that he has signed
up for three games with the Blue
Mountain League team of Pasco, one
on Memorial Day and two the Fourth
of July. In the agreement Ferrell is
permitted to strengthen his lineup
by the addition of outside players If
he SO chooses. All three games will
be played in Pasco.

WANT MOUNT
KEPT RAINIER
Kennewick c. c. Protests
Proposed Change to
Tacoma

The Kennewick Commercial Club
by resolution unanimously adopted at
today's luncheon went on record as
opposed to the changing Of Mount
Rainier to Mount Tacoma as provid-
ed in the Dill resolution recently
passed by the U. S. senate. Similar
action has been taken by number
of commercial clubs and chambers
of commerce in both eastern and
western Washington.
The text of Kennewicks resolution
follows:
] Resolved, by the Kennewick Com
mercial club that it is opposed to
the senatorial joint resolution pro-
viding for the change of the name OF
Mount Rainier to- Mount Tacoma
and Of Mount Rainier National Park
to Tacoma National Park. In our
opinion no historical nor geographic
reason exists for the change. Upon
two occasions the United State Geo
graphic Board, after exhaustive hear
inps. has unanimously held that
Rainier is the true and correct name.
The findings of this board should be
accepted by congress and by the peo-
pie as authoritative and final.
In our opinion there exists in TINS
community nor in general thruout
the state any sentiment in favor OF
the aforesaid change. If, however,
for the sake of political expediency or
for the purpose of bringing publicity
and advertising to any community
it is deemed advisable to change the
name of the Mountain and the Park
we urge our senator's and represen-
tatives in Congress to disregard the
findings Of the Geographic board, to
ignore the important and vital meas
ures now pending in congress and to
devote their time and energies to an
effort to have substituted in the SEN
atorial joint resolution for the word
Tacoma, the word Kennewick-a word
meaningful and enriched by the ira
ditional usages of the aborigines
whose coming greatly antedated that
of the white discoverers and explor-
ers.

Two Cars Make Trip Down
Columbia via Plymouth
to Portland
ROAD OVER HORSE
HEAVEN IMPROVED
All but Seven of Twenty
Eight Miles Surfaced with
Crushed Rock

A delegation Of White Bluffs,
Hanford and Kennewick men received
very cordial reception Monday in
Portland where they went to tell
the people of the Oregon metropolis
something Of the significance of the
Kennewick- Umatilla cutoff as con-
Meeting link between oregon's fa-
nous Columbia River highway and
the primary trans-state highways of
Washington.
Not only were the visitors cordial
ly received but their visit was given
generous publicity by the Portland
dailies, while officials Of the Portland
Chamber Of Commerce and the Ore
gon State Chamber Of Commerce and
the directors Of highway travel show
ed keen interest in the possibilities
offered by the cutoff.
The purpose Of the visit was to let
the Portland people know that the
Horse Heaven route by way of Ply
mouth ferry, which has been in dis
repute because of sand conditions,
is now the shortest and best route
between Portland and points in CEN
tral and eastern Washington. The
distance from Kennewick TO Ply
mouth is % miles, all but one mile
of which has been regarded, with no
climb in excess Of five per cent, and
90 miles has been surfaced with
crushed rock. The surface extends
from Kennewick and carries the trav-
eler beyond the sand blows which
have been troublesome during some
seasons of the year in the past. The
two cars which made the Portland
trip made the run from Kennewick
to Plymouth in one hour and in high
gear, despite the fact that the newly
graded portions of the road are a
little rough and will be until suffic-
lent rain falls to permit of dragging.
The visitors pointed out to the
Portland folk that by reason of this
cutoff new route Of highway ira
vel will undoubtedly develop down
the Columbia river from North Cen
trail Washington. The road from
Kennewick north TO White Bluffs is
in good condition and within a year
will be surfaced the entire distance.
Grant county has already done, much
work on the new road along the riv-
er and plans to do more and from
Vantage ferry to Wenatchee there is
good road. Starting at Wenatchee
this road intersects the Sunset high
way, the North Central highway, the
Central Washington highway and the
Inland Empire highway on practical
ly water grade and along an all
year around route, and traverses the
district to be developed from the
Priest Rapids power project.
Those making the Portland trip
were County Commissioners Sam AL
lard and r. H. Briggs, Fred Gilhuly,
e. j. o'Leary and f. A. English Of
White Bluffs, j. C. Syfford of Han
ford, d. G. Rodgers, DR.. R. L. Lundy,
X. c. Clifford and A. r. Gardner Of
Kennewicls and w. Fl. Switzler of
Plymouth.
