NEA Service Sports Editor


 So much heavy and able literary effort has been expended for years in putting the story of the Kentucky Derby in words that there is hardly a new angle from which the report CT can approach to get new slant on one of Americas greatest sport ing events or there is no floss from which he can spin fancy tale.
 It seems. after all. that the Ken lucky Derby is horse race. the oldest and the greatest classic of the American turf. and that the race this year is to be the fiftieth re- vival of an event that used to be the greatest thing in life of Old kaintuck.
 There are figures galore dating back to 1875 but figures are boring and those who visit Churchill Downs this year are not so much interest ed in the winner of 1890 as they are in getting the inside of the win ner of 1929. They have paid off on the winners of all the past races.
 It may not be out of the way to mention that the race is over a course of a mile and a quarter and the record for the distance was made in 1914 by Old Rosebud. He went the distance in 2:03 c-5. The

CONGRATULATIONS!

A FTER months exhorting and
Z = beseeching for desired re-
suit, it does an editor good to have
that result come to pass, whether
the aforementioned exhorting and
beseeching has been a causal fac
tor or not.
So now, after viewing with par
donable pride the crowd that turn
ed out to attend our Fair, this ed
itor feels good. Maybe you went
because we asked you to, maybe
you went because you wanted to,
maybe you went because every
body else did, and you hated to
stay at home alone.
But whatever the reason, we're
glad you went. 1t shows that this
community is really behind the
projects attempted by it's leaders
is really supporting them, in spite
of a certain amount of surface
grumbling and scepticism. This
solid support is the force thai
makes a town, community or dis
trict forge ahead. Fair time is test
ing time, and we have come thru
with flying colors. Congratulations
Kennewick!

carefully and remember why they

Remember burn that covers

Very often it is necessary for skin
grating to heal smaller burns.
Don't neglect small burns, but have
them sterilized and bandaged to
avoid infection. A few simple pre-
cautions to avoid injury are as
follows: Fire in your clothing can
best be extinguished by rolling on

coat or rug; by all means avoid
breathing flames into the lungs.

PLANES AND OTHER THINGS

PLANES AND OTHER THINGS
NEW uses for the airplane are
= being discovered daily. The
newest use to which they have been
put in Kennewick is carrying a sick
child to a doctor $50 miles away
in an hour and a half.
In moments like this, where
time is a very essential factor, the
airplane plays an important part.
To its speed, which has never been
questioned, has been added an in
creasing proportion of safety and
surety. Flying is fast changing
from a risky gamble with the odds
against US to a business enterprise
backed by all the safeguards which
intelligent engineering can devise.
The class of pilots is no longer
largely composed of young dare
devils, eager to toss their lives
away for thrill. 1t is still a fas-
cinating game, but more in the way
that the newspaper business or the
stock market is a game.
Freight and passenger services
have followed swiftly on the heels
of air mail services. The question
that hovers in ones mind when
contemplating the recent advances
in the air. industry is whether
planes will ever be used as auto
mobiles are today. Such results Of
present trends would make radica
changes in our city planning, agri
culture and point of view. The

WHY NOT KENNEWICK?

WHY NOT kENNEWlCk
CUNNYSIDE has set aside $4,000
~ out of her newly-made budget
for street lights.
Sunnyside budget-makers realize
that a well-lighted city marks it
self a progressive community.
Clothes do not entirely make the
man, nor does the appearance OF
streets and buildings entirely make
the city, but both constitute the
basis of first impressions, and this
is what counts with tourists and
transients who have time for only
a brief glimpe.
Kennewick avenue at night is
dark and dreary. If it were not for
the lighted store windows, it would
be as dark as the side streets.
There has been some discussion OF
late about installing new light
ing system. This discussion has
been largely favorable. As usual,
the stumbling block is financial.
But this can be surmounted without
too much effort, and the results
will more than repay the effort.
1t is up to Kennewick to keep in
line with other towns in the valley
in this respect if she wishes to
keep up in other respects. Travellers
cannot take time to go through
all the business accounts of the
merchants, but they do see our
streets as they pass through.
Whether they will remember Ken
newick as "dark little dump" or
a bright, up-and-coming town"
depends on what they see in their
brief glimpse.
What are we going to do about
it?

The nationalist commander said

General Chang Tsung-Chang di-

though his exact location in the
area affected by the fighting was
not known. A Russian general,
