Motorcycle races on the beach speed
way, horse races, demonstrations in
serf riding by the Indians and ex-
hibitions by life-savers will be among
the features.
The barbecue will be unique in that
all kinds of deep sea fish and CLAIMS
will be served. Salmon, and Halibut
will be barbecued. So will CLAIMS, crabs
and Japanese oysters all of which are
found on Gray's Hrbor or out to sea
off the Gray's Harbor bar.
Reservations to the convention are
being received in large numbers caus,
ing the Aberdeen committee to feel
confident that an attendance Of 6,ooo
to 5000 legionnaires and members OF
the legion auxiliary will be in atten-
dance.
The Aberdeen post of the legion has
more than tripled its membership

started.

REPORTS SHORT APPLE CROP

The u. S. Department of Agricul-
lures report for June 1st on the Colo
RADIO fruit crop prospects, has the
following paragraph regarding apples:
"Fruit prospects were materially
lowered by freezes during May. Apples
were severely damaged in all sections
of the state with less than a third
of crop now in prospect. Delicious
apples are almost a complete failure
with some Jonathans and Winesaps
and a fair crop of Rome Beauties.
Early apples are almost a total loss
with later varieties showing prospects
for poor to fair crop. Apple condi-
ton is now 80 per cent of normal,
compared with 70 per cent year ago
and the ten year average of 80.3 per
cent. No official forecast Of apple pro-
duction is made at this time"
This information is of interest To-
cally as it not only indicates a short
crop in one of the fairly large apple
producing states but also promises a
better than usual market for the Vel
low Transparents.

NEW STAR ROUTE CARRIER

Arthur w. Campbell of Antoine,
Washington, has been awarded the
Star Route mail contract between Ken.
newick and White Bluffs by the Post
office Department. The contract is for
four years, beginning July 1, 1880. Mr..
Campbell's bid was $2s24.OO per year.
E. ]. Mulkey, who had the contract
for the past four years, still retains
the freight and passenger franchise for
the route issued to him by the state
but it is possible he may sell this to
Mr.. Campbell as it is doubtful of there
being enough business for both to
operate.

WHITE BLUFFS TAKES
KENNEWICk, SCORE 5 TO 2

Playing bang-up ball behind good
pitching, the White Bluffs club turn
ed back the league-leading Kennewick
team last> Sunday at Kennewick by a
score of S to 2. 1t was an ideal day
for baseball, being hot and with very
little, if any, wind blowing. Both
clubs were in good form, only three
or four errors being made.
Both clubs used Yakima pitchers,
Lefty" Purdin doing the hurting for
Kennewick and "Pop-Up" Morris
being in the box for White Bluffs.
Both turned in well pitched games
although Morris was the steadier of
the two. He did not walk man and
hit only one batter. Although
Purdin was credited with II strik-
outs, he was little wild and I'M
steady at times, walking 7 men. Nor
ris yielded up several hits to the
Kennewick players but he kept them
well scattered and frightened up in
the pinches. He received fine support
from both the infield and outfield.
Remlinger captured four flies in left
field, two of them exceptionally hard
chances. Paschen at short also had
good day. He dropped one hot
liner but snagged number of hard
hit grounders and tossed the runners
out at first. The chances for the
other players were not so numerous
but they fielded Clearly everything
that came their way.
Kennewick scored first in the OPEN
ing fame. White Bluffs tied it up in
the second forged to the front in the
third inning when they crossed the
plate three times. Although each club
had runners on the paths in nearly
every one of the following innings,
they were able to score only one
run each in the last six flames.
In anticipation of a close contest,
the crowd that turned out to the
game was the largest of the season
at kennewick. Included in them were
number of rooters from White
Bluffs.
To the surprise of nearly every
one, the tail-end Benton City club
took Hanford into camp on the latter S
grounds by a score of to 4.
Only three more scheduled games
remain to be played. White Bluffs
plays two of these against Hanford
and one with Benton City. In order
for the locals to capture the pennant
it will be necessary for them to win
all three games while Kennewick is
dropping two to Hanford and Benton
City. If Kennewick should lose only
one game and White Bluffs should
win all three, the two clubs would
be tied and it would be necessary to
play a post season game to settle
the issue. If this should happen, the
contest would undoubtedly draw a
tremendous crowd.
So far White Bluffs is the only
club that has been fable to register
win over the Kennewick club,
having won two Of the four games
played.
Negotiations are now under way
for game between White Bluffs and
Pasco in the latter city at the
Fourth of July celebration there. The
plans, however, are only tentative, as
nothing definite has been settled yet.
Next Sunday Hanford plays at
White Bluffs and Kennewick at Ben
ton City.
