KIDS CAN'T ATTEND
DANCES HEREAFTER
Prosecuting Attorney Serves Notice
that Minors Must be
Kept Out

1t has come to the attention of the
prosecuting attorney that great
number of minor children are in the
habit of attending the public dances
held thruout the county. From his ex-
perience with juveniles he is con-
vinced that the environment and in
fluence of public dances are injurious
to the morals of young children
Those parties in the county having
charge of or giving public dances
will therefore take notice that no
minor under the age of 18 years will
be permitted to enter or attend any
public dance. This is in accordance
with the state law and will be strict
ly enforced by the sheriffs office and
all persons permitting any such min
ors to attend said dances will be
criminally prosecuted.

the I Commercial club has submitted
.hree plans for the consideration Of
~ city fathers. Members of the
.onncil are inclined to look with favor
mon the proposed Improvement.
The most comprehensive plan con-
.emplates the erection of six stand

lO0-watt lamp, encased in a suit
able diffusing globe, the streets to
i thus improved being Second street

third, Second street only.
The plan suggested was the forma-
ton Of an Improvement district, the
cost to be assessed to the property
owners and the maintenance and op-

special election and bond issue will
Be necessary, should the project find
favor with local residents. Inasmuch
Is the work was started by the Com

GOLFERS LIKE
LADDER GAME
Poor Players Purchase
Proud Positions Putting
Percha Pill Prudently

Herman Schmidt sits perched pre-
cariously upon the top rung of the
golf ladder" as the result of his
score on the local links last Sunday in
the qualifying match. He has been
challenged and will no doubt lose his
position, for better golfers turned
in higher scores in their Sundays
play. So too, are the next few on
the ladder situated. Better players
are below them on the ladder and the
topmost players are taking what en-
joyment they may in their temporary
eminence.
From the positions on the ladder
the competitive teams will be select
ed. Neighboring towns are clamor-
ing for dates, one or two of which
have been selected. The first out of
town match will be played with Pros
ser, there on April 26, when an eight
man team will be matched. Walla
Walla has asked for May IL and
wants a 12-man team. Each town,
however, asks that all golfers pos
sible accompany the team and op-
ponents will be found for them. Pas
CO wants date any time this month.
The standing of the ladder last
Sunday, together with the scores is

pose Of the meeting is to ascertain
the desirability of forming a local

al other vineyard owners combine
with them.

CEMENT SIDEWALK
FOR E. FIFTH STREET
Property Owners Ask for Improve
ment = Want to Pay
Cash for Job

Property owners on East Fifth
street have petitioned the city to call
for bids for the installation of five
foot cement sidewalk along the south
side of the street from Washington
to Jefferson streets. The ordinance
granting the request was given its
first and second readings at the reg
ular meeting Tuesday night and the
work will be done as soon as the legal
preliminaries can be taken care of.
Owners in the district affected have
asked that they be allowed to pay for
the Improvement at once, rather than
by the deferred payment plan.

SHIP SIX CARS
GRASS In WEEK
Kennewick's Earliest Crop
is Coming on at Great
Rate Price Good

Six carloads Of asparagus, possibly
seven, is the mark set this week by
local shippers. This in addition to the
express shipments which have been
made on practically every train. Last
year the first shipment was made on
April 2, while the first solid carload
was shipped on the sixth this year.
Of the carload shipments the Three
Rivers association will handle FIVE,
Barton Gleason have already shipped
one and expect TO have another out.
Prices, which started good with the
first shipments, have been terribly
cut on Northwest markets, due prin-
cipally to the consigned shipments
by Independents, principally from the
Sunnyside country. The California
product, being dumped on the mar
kets Of the Northwest the past week
heavily, also has its effect on the
price. The principal cause of the big
drop in the price is due, however, to
the consigned shipments from the
upper valley country.
Northwest prices have been a dol
lar and dollar and a quarter per
12-lb crate, while the eastern car
shipments have been around two and
two and quarter.
Car shipments are much easier and
quicker to obtain this year, as the
acreage has been increased about six
ty per cent, according to estimates,
and the grass will reach destinations
in better shape than ever before.
The fine warm weather Of the past
week has caused the grass to grow
rapidly and prospects are fine for the
largest crop ever shipped.

ROWING PROVES COSTLY
TO BRIToNS WHO KICK

OXFORD, England, June e.
Everything in this country seems
to cost about twice as much az be-
fore the war, racing boats not ex'
cepted. The Oxford. Cambridge boat
race cost the two university clubs
about $4,000, just about double
the pre-war 'outlay.
A. racing shell could be built for
about 1926 previous to 1914, but
they are now $3.50 apiece. Oars
also cost now $40 each. compared
with s. before the war.
The actual implements of the
race form only a small proportion
Of the total expenditure. Although
no allowances are made to the crews
while in their university quarters
from the time they start for the
tideway course their respective boat
clubs pay their travelling, lodging
food and other necessary expenses
which runs to about $500 each foT
oxford and Cambridge. There Is
no revenue to offset this sum, as
the boat race Is an entirely free
show.

Ballerino, who gained possession of
the Junior lightweight title in Phil

The rugged little Italian scrapper

Peckinpaugh is a veteran who
improves with age. At no time
in his career, even when he was
youngster, has he covered more
ground around the infield. He has
the shortstop's instinct that tells
him where to play for q batsnaI1.
Rarely does he err.
At bat he is always dangerous.
Few pitchers like to see him COM
ing up when hit may mean runs.
He is a left field hitter, as a gen.
eral rule, yet now and then he
surprises the opposition with
solid drives to right and right
center. Most of his hits by the
way, are solid drives, as he puts
all he has into his swing.
When Peck came to Washing
ton some believed he would never
do his best. 1t was rumored that
he had been offered the New York
management and then had it
withdrawn. He was blamed for
a certain error in a world series
giving the Giants the title.

had Peck appointed manager Of
the Washington club. Then when
this did not bear fruit, he re-
ported and played ball. Right
there is the tip-off on Roger Peck
inpaugh. He always plays ball,
whether it be on the field or off it..
Roger Peckinpaugh Is almost
six years older than his, present
manager, Bucky Harris. In 1912
Peck was Cleveland's regular
shortstop. Not till 1919, seven
years later, did Bucky Harris
make the grade. Yet today Peck
forms one Of the small coterie of
veterans who assist Manager Har-
ris with the weight of their ex-
perienced opinion. Peck is loyal
to the core. He wouldn't know
how to withhold anything that
might be Of use to the teams
welfare.
Peck thinks and talks baseball
only. When the curtain falls, he
mes himself up into Canada for
a long h'1nting trip, sometimes
remaining in the woods for two
months. He spends his winters
in Cleveland, where he will even

days on the diamond are done.
