DOUGLAS NEVIS
DOUGLAS WINS
 FROM SKACWAY

The Douglas Hi basket-shooters on their trip to Skagway, over the week. end, beat the Skagway high school in an interesting game Sat urday night by the score of 23 to IS. Once they hit their stride, Douglas was simply too fast for the Skagway team and apparently had no difficulty in winning.
 But it wasn't an easy game, how ever. After a stormy trip going, with most of the team seasick on the voyage, the Douglas team had a hard time to get going and the first half saw Skagway leading by 16 to Is score. Six baskets were chalked up for them before their visitors even got started. Then, Niemi broke the ice with two pret- ty shots and after that they made most of the baskets, scoring 8 points to 2 for Skag giay. But two points were made on free throws during the game, w. Cashen converting twice. The latter led the scoring , for Douglas, with 10 points, A. Gair followed with 8, Niemi 4, and Lun- 1 dell 2.
 { For Skagway, Seprelle, center showed up we'll Taller than Lun- dcll by several inches, he used his reach to good advantage. SIX points each were made by him and Johnson; two each by Dahl ano Blanchard, and one by Licheter
 Tine Douglas boys made the re- turn trip in 914 hours, reaching here at 8 o'clock last night.

PRACTICE TILT
Straight Football Used by
Kennewick Eleven to Defeat
Grandview; Valley Coaches
Look on at Game

A husky brand of straight foot
ball won Kennewick the long end
of 12-0 score when the Orange
Phantoms tangled with the Grand
view eleven at the opening prac-
tice game of the 1929 football sea-
son.
The Grandview team was too
light to hold back the Kenewick
players, who plunged the line for
touchdowns in the first and third
quarters. Preston, quarterback,
Nelson, tackle, and Rupp, guard
were outstanding members Of the
victorious eleven. Grandview's
outstanding stars were Baird, CEN
ter, and Phelps, quarterback.
Most of the high school coaches
in the valley attended the game to
get a lineup on the teams which
their own elevens will have to bat
tie some time during the fall.

Equinox Here
q q =
a Look Behind

Days and nights match each
other now in length, skies are
cloudy, the wind is keen, and fur
mace fires are beginning to roar
with a comforting warmth as the
season slips thru the blustery door
of the equinox into autumn.
If we stop for a lingering back
ward look as we pass on through,
we catch glimpse Of the excep-
tionally fine summer weather that
was our lot during the months just
past. Only one week of anything
that could be called discomfort,
three months of unadulterated sun
shine, very little wind, and nothing
that could be called a dust storm,
according to old-timers' standards.
If the coming winter treats US as
gently as the summer has, we can
regard ourselves as most favored
among men.

Durdle Trails Trailer;
Will Appreciate Clues

E. c. Durdle, county agent, would
like to know very much the where
abouts of the trailer with the spray
equipment that has been used in
perennial weed control work. No
doubt some one has taken it from
the rear of the Commercial club
building to use II for weed control
work. No notice, however, was Civ
en- the office as to whom and where
it was taken. The agent is very
anxious to use It for demonstra-
tion meetings in other communities
at this time and has been unable
to locate it so far through tele-
phone calls. Will the person who
has taken it please inform him
Immediately SO that he may con-
tinue his schedule for these demon
stration meetings? In the future
he would appreciate it very much
if those wishing to use the equip
ment would at least let the office
know who has secured it, Durdle
said.

GREATEST HONORS
AWARDED HAWLEY
Blue Mountain Executive Receives
Final Degree Given Scout Lead
ers; One in District

F. Douglas Hawley, executive
of the Blue Mountain Boy Scout
council, was awarded the final de-
gree in the Growth Of Scout
Executive" at the biennial train
ing conference held at Hayden
Lake, Idaho, last week. This is
the highest honor which can be OBJ
tanned by scout executive, and
Hawley is the only man in the
eleventh region, composed of
Washington, Idaho, Montana and
Oregon, to hold this degree.
Rigid requirements, including
extensive reading in psychology,
sociology and allied subjects, and
written reviews, make this honor
difficult of attainment. Hawley
received the second degree at Cor
mel last year. At the time, only
three executives in the United
States held the final or third de-
gree. A few more have been named
since then.

Hodge said.
In addition to those who are
majoring in commercial work,
many take one or two semesters
of tipping to familiarize themselves
with the touch system, so necess-
ary to speed. There are three
classes of beginners in tipping this
fall, Miss Gladys Gooch, CONNER
cial teacher explained.
Scholastic standards are high in
the comercial department, a con-
trast to the old days when it used
to be considered "snap." Gradu-
ates in this department find no
difficulty in giving satisfactory
work as stenographers and office
workers, Hodge said, for their
training has been sufficiently
thorough to enable them to fit in
smoothly into any office.
