The game with Benton City last
Friday night was one of the best
games of the season. The score for
the boys game was 25-18 in Benton
City's favor. The Ken-Hi girls team
won by large score of 1914.
The boys game was marked by poor
passing of the Ken-Hi team and the
boys missed many cripples which
were sure points. The Benton City
team is light, fast and dead shots,
which makes for a good game. The
score was 10 all at the end of the
half. The final score was 25-1S in
Benton City's favor.
The girls of Ken-Hi played an ex-
ceptionally good game and won by a
score of 1854. Helen Truman was
virtually the Ken-Hi's star because
of her numerous successful baskets.
Friday night, January II, Prosser

Inc only possible pathway to inter-
national agreement with reference to
these complicated and difficult fac
tors Is through mutual counsel and
cooperation which the plan selected
contemplates. 1t is therefore the
unanimous opinion Of the Jury that
of the 22,165 plans submitted, Plan
Number 1863 is "the best practicable
plan by which the United States may
cooperate with other nations to
achieve and preserve the peace of the
world"
1t Is the unanimous hope Of che Jury
that the first fruit Of the mutual coun-
sci and cooperation among the nations
which will result from the adoption Of
the plan selected will be general
prohibition of the manufacture and
sale Of all materials Of war.

dound to his advantage at Tuesdays
primary. At one time, when it looked
as If Hiram were capable of giving
the President a real fight for the
nomination. there were coast Repub-
licans, who would have voted and
fought for Coolidge. Now, it is
thought. some of these in a spirit Of
compassion may hand Johnson a COM
plimentary vote.
They will desire to award him a
sort of consolation prize in the shape
of the California delegation, assured
in advance that it cannot conceivably
lnjure Coolidge at Cleveland. Other
native sons" believe Johnson still
has hackers enough in the state to
give him majority of anywhere from
10000 TO $4,000 over the President in
the primary. That, of course. would
represent tremendous decline in
Hfram's stoCs in California He was
elected senator in 1892 by 350,000.
Always Too Ambitious.
An unbiased analysis of the rise and
fall of Hiram Johnson in California
ascribes his decline from high estate
to his ungovernable ambition to be
President of the United States. Ever
since California sent him to the Sem
ate Hiram has been running for
President" He has consistently gone
to Bat for California interests-in
connection with tariffs on citrus
fruits and other home products-and
has been a valiant supporter of all
antf-Japanese projects in Congress.
He battled to the last against the
four-power Pacific treaty negotiated
a the Washington conference.
Broadly speaking, however, Johnson
has lost favor with his old-t time sup
porters. because they think he has
turned his back on the ideals he once
SO feryently championed. II is COM
mon thing in California to hear men
and women say that Johnson is pro
gressive ct election time" and "reac-
tionary" the rest of the time. His
failure to make train connections for
Washington in time to vote for the
unseating of Senator Newberry did
not please his progressive con-
stituents. There is a very strong
league of nations sentiment in Cali
fornia, particularly in the populous
south. Johnson's bitter isolationist
views have estranged that community
from him. This year his vituperative
fight against the President and
against the Republican administra-
tion alienated many regular Repub-
licans, who found such tactics unbe-
coming in a man seeking the party'S
nomination. Many think Johnson will
gradually fade out as national
figure from now on and perhaps seek
fame and fortune in the practice OF
law.

III FREDERIC WILLIAM "ALI'
Although it cannot possibly affect
President Coolidge's nomination for
tunes, one way or the other, the CAL
ifornia primary Tuesday, May ., riV-
cts the attention of politicians.
The Presidents managers look not
only for victory, but for a sweeping
victory over Senator Hiram w. John
son. Johnson's" friends recognize
Coolidge's strength in California, but
are confident the native sons" will
stand by their somewhat shattered
idol. Everything depends on the
strength with which the johnson
ticket can sweep down from the north
past San Francisco into southern Cal
ifornia, which is acknowledged to be
Coolidge territory. The country trib-
utary to Los Angeles is af1ame with
enthusiasm for the President. New
corners from the east, especially New
England, have leavened the political
soil with strong Coolidge flavor. II
IS in that region that Herbert HooVers $
influence is paramount too.
Stnr on Descendent. 49,
Senator johnson himself recognizes
that his star in California has been
steadily in the descendent for several
years. In the famous McClatchy let
ter last year Johnson confessed that
he believed he was stronger politi-
cally in New York than in his native
commonwealth His fortunes have
gone from bad to worse steadily since
his ll-StarTed raid on the preSiden-
tial nomination in 1920. A variety of
causes is adduced. In the first place.
one time powerful supporters esert-
ed the Johnson cause. Men like
former United States Senator Frank
Flint 3nd c. c. league. president of
the California Fruit Growers Asso-
citation and of the Walnut Growers
Association. who once were heart and
soul with Hiram, no longer are his
followers. Marshall Stimson. one OF
the organizers Of the Lincoln Roose-
Welt League of California. which was
JohnSon's "Old Guard" in the heyday
of his gubernatorial and senatorial
career is now ranged against the
senator.
In 1929 Friend w. Richardson was
elected Governor of California on an
outright anti-Johnson platform. He
ran far ahead of johnson on the Re-
publican ticket and has devoted him
self meantime to the smashing, right
and left, of the old Johnson state
machine Today there is practically
nothing left of the Johnson steam
roller that dominated Republican
politics in California for ten years.
The names just mentioned are those
of outstanding ex-Johnson men. But
the Pacific coast woods are full of
them. Former supporters who are
still with Hiram are the exception
rather than the rule.
Consolation Prize.
Though Californians know John
son is in hopeless eclipse as a rival
of Calvin Coolidge. that fact. Cali
