LARGE REGISTRATION

When the registration books closed
October 10, the White Bluffs pre-
cinct had a total of 349 voters re-
gistered and eligible to vote at the
general election on November s. This
is the largest registration in the
history of the precinct and with the
widespread interest in the national,
congressional and state tickets it
is quite probable that the vote cast
at the general election will also
break record.
Columbia precinct (vernita and
Cold Creek) has a total Of 46 re-
gistered voters and Hanford 226
making a total of 621 for the Priest
Rapids valley.
Reports from all over the state
show record registration, pronis-
ing record vote in the November
election. While registration ended
October 16, totals will not be avail
able until after election, but it is safe
to predict that around 100000 voters
in the state have qualified. In fact
it is possible that the total will reach
10000. Either figure would be a
record.

ally suggests heavy vc.e, and II
