ARCHERY CONTEST
EARLY IN APRIL
Youth are Taking Keen Interest
in Ancient Sport and Making
Splendid Equipment

ooh, boy! Jack has a bow he
just made with a forty-eight-lb.
pull! Betcha right now I can shoot
straighter'n he does" Talk of this
sort can be heard around Kenne-
wick any day now, as the young
sters prepare for the Courier-Re-
porter archery contest to be pulled
off after the first Of the month.
One of the most interesting and
harmless of outdoor sports, arch
cry, has taken hold of the youth
of the land with a grip that cannot
be shaken off. Especially among
the Scouts is this true, and nearly
every member of the local troops
has been experimenting with the
fascinating game. Some very fine
bows have been painstakingly fa-
shioned and the technique of ar
row feathering is being rapidly
acquired.
In the coming contest, there
have been but two conditions to
be met by those who wish to COM
pete. The first one is that the bow
and arrows must be made by the
entrant. To provide for the details
of the contest all entrants must
register at least week before the
contest. Register with Scoutmaster
White at the printing office. Chief
Executive Hawley will be in Ken
newick tomorrow and will tell the
youngsters more about the details
of the contest, which will be held
according to the national rules.
Prizes will be given for accuracy
and distance.
To give every boy plenty of time
to get his equipment made and do
plenty of practicing, the contest
will be held about the tenth of
April. The actual time and further
details will be announced later.

TENNIS, TOO,
is REVIVED
Local Enthusiasts Organ
ize for Seasons Play
Courts Pretty Fair

Balmy spring days and bright
sunshine have uncorked the energy
that has been accumulating ia
Kennewick residents during the
past winter months and have NOV
ed the towns tennis players, as
well as the golf bugs, to get to-
gether and plan for summer activ-
ity. With this end in view about
twenty tennis enthusiasts met in
the Commercial club rooms Tues
day evening and proceeded to or
ganize, or rather, re-organize, the
Kennewick Tennis club, electing
DR.. B. L. Cole president and Frank
Maupin, secretary.
With a view towards accommo-
dating everyone in town who ade-
sires to participate, the Tennis
club has adopted two standards OF
membership, adult and junior. Ju-
nior members of the club will have
exactly the same privileges as
adults except that they will be ex-
pected to do most of their playing
during working hours of week
days and to relinquish use of the
courts when adult members desire
to play. Club fees, also, are scaled
for the benefit of junior members.
Two of the tennis courts are in
fairly good shape this year and
will not need much fixing up be-
fore they are in good condition
for use; however, one of them is
not much good and will have to be
almost entirely rebuilt.
The officials of the club would
like to get in touch with everyone
interested in tennis.

HIGH COURT
UPHOLDS BANK
Suit on Preferred Claim
is Decided in Favor of
Ordinary Depositors

An important decision and one
of special interest to the people
of this community has just been
rendered by the state supreme
court in the case of Ryer Grain
Co. VS.. II. C.. Johnson, supervisor
of banking, in favor of the depos-
itors of the American Security
bank.
Collection of draft for $500
had been made by the local bank
and remitted by cashiers check
about nine days before the bank
closed its doors. The. cashiers
check was deposited by the for
warding bank with the Federal
Reserve bank and before reaching
the American Security bank the
state bank department had closed
the bank. The Ryer Grain Co. brot
suit to collect the entire amount
as a preference claim.
The case was decided by Judge
Truax against the Ryer Grain Co.
1t was appealed to the supreme
court and heard before department
No. 1 last October. This depart
ment failed to reach a decision
and the case was re-assigned to
be heard before the entire supreme
court sitting en- banc on January
25.
Attorney Cosgrove and Terhune
of Seattle represented the Ryer
Grain Co. and C. L. Holcomb of
Kennewick represented the state
department of banking.
Now that this case is out of the
way, it releases considerable funds
of the bank which were tied up
pending this decision. The release
of the preferred claim also adds to
the available funds of the bank
and a dividend is expected within
the next thirty days to the deposit
ors. To date one dividend of forty
per cent has been paid. Several
important collections have been
made since the last dividend made
a year or more ago.

HOOTCH POTS
LURE MOTHS
Valuable t 20 Orchardists
in Determining Spray
Dates SUPPLEMENTAL

Trapping the codling moth with
"hootch pots" in the, irrigated val
leys of the northwest will be car
ried: out on large scale during
the coming season, according to
DIR. R. L. Webster, entomologist at
the state college. The codling moth
is the notorious worm of the ap-
pies, known to growers all over the
country, he says.
"Apple cider, sugar and yeast,
is the combination which leads to
the downfall of the wayward
moth," DR.. Webster explained. "a
total of 17,429 codling moths were
captured at cider bait traps during
a single season on six-acre ex-
perimental orchard tract at We
natchee. These experiments were
conducted by Anthony Spuler, as
sociate entomologist of the exper-
iment station.
Cooling moth traps are Of most
value in determining spray dates.
During a recent conference in We
natchee, attended by federal and
state authorities on insect control
problems, special emphasis was
placed on the use of the traps.
While they will not replace spray
ing as a means of killing the moth
they are valuable as supplement
ary measure to make spraying
more effective through better tim
ing of applications"

PERFECT PLAN
FOR COMBINE
Valley Units Gain Back
ing of Entire State in
Pushing Irrigation

Plans under which the entire
state will cooperate in the devel-
opment Of the Yakima valley ir-
rigation projects were outlined at
Yakima Monday at a meeting Of
the Yakima Valley Irrigation de-
velopment league. Early develop
ment of the remaining units of the
Yakima project is the outstanding
purpose Of the league, which is
composed Of representatives from
the various commercial organiza-
tions of the valley. -.
Although the money spent for
irrigation development in the Yak
ina valley has proven a profitable
investment there are number Of
districts which are suffering for
lack of additional work, facts pre-
sented before the league show.
Prosperous homes and highly pro-
ductive farms have followed the
irrigation canals but there are still
places where the shortage of wa
ter is keenly felt and much rich
land is still in the sage brush with
no water available.
Among those suffering the most
is the Kennewick district, it was
shown at the meeting and where
the activities Of the local commit
tees for the past few years were
reviewed. During the past winter
the Kennewick district has had a
representative in Washington, D.
c., to bring the matter to the at
tention Of the department, in an
effort to get relief. At the same
time agitation was under way for
the early completion Of the unfn-
ished units in the vicinity of Yak
ina. Washington officials promis-
ed to give the matter action as
soon as possible, but progress
seemed slow.
Soon it became apparent that
the only way to obtain results was
for the entire valley to present a
united front in asking for a defin-
ite development program. AS soon
as this agreement was reached by
the various units of the valley,
support from the rest of the state
was not difficult to obtain. Inter-
est and cooperation Of the Seattle
Chamber of Commerce, the State
Chamber Of Commerce, as well as
all other bodies working for state
development were obtained and
action in the matter can now be
confidently expected.
Kennewick's part in the plan
was presented at the meeting
Monday by M. M. Moulton and A.
f. Brown, who were the delegates
from the local district. Represent
atives were present from all the
communities from Yakima to Ken

PLAY BLIND HOLE"
TOURNAMENT SUN,
Two Outside Tournaments Already
Arranged for the Local Golf
Course-Ladder Match

While the disagreeable weather
of last Sunday prevented many of
the local golfers from playing,
there were a few of the bugs who
braved the wind and played out
their matches on schedule. Owing
to the wind there were no excep-
tional scores turned in tho nearly
every player is cutting down his
handicap by the marks shown on
their cards.
Now that the course is in such
splendid shape, other towns are
wanting to come and play it. A
tournament has been arranged
with Pasco for Sunday, March "a
and one with Prosser on the fol-
lowing Sunday. Next Sunday there
will be an inter-club contest, play
ing the interesting "blind hole'
game. This game has proven quite
interesting in the past and should
provide lot of fun.
Unsuspected interest is being
displayed in the game and the
club is acquiring new members ev-
cry day. 1t is hoped that the men,
bership can be brought up to at
least fifty this year. The women,
too, are taking a lively interest
and as soon as the weather warns
up a little more, the course will
be in use every day.
One condition viii prevail in the
club this year. With the member
ship goes the understanding that
a score card must be turned in to
the handicap committee for every
round played. This will be made
imperative.
