Looks Good For
Football Team
Coach Linden Has Material
for Fast, Heavy Team;
Play Hermiston

Prospects for a good KennewicI
football team are bright this year,
according to Coach Linden, who has
been running the boys thru the
early fall practice. A good turnout
has enabled the coach TO have a
better selection shan ordinarily,
and while there are but few ex-
perienced men from which to select
a backfield, they are heavy lads
who are fast, who might develop
into stars.
The first game of the season
will be played next Saturday on the
local field between Kennewick and
Hermiston, those big husky lads
who are so hard TO upset. The
team will make the occasion one
for selecting the permanent teams
and lot of substitutions may be
expected on both sides. z
The two Brown boys, Robert and
Linn will contend for the position
of right end. Henry Scott and
Harold Kulp will fight it, out for
right tackle, while John Leibel and
Leslie Gilbert will put up the
scrap for left tackle. Edward
Spaegle and Earl Puds xbaugh are
candidates for right guard and Joe
Hatch and Ward Meyers for CEN
ter. Dewitt Mcguire and Orville
Bowen are being considered for
lefteuard and Kenneth Hitler and
IN6fen Tweedt will scrap it for
left end. The backfield will be Sc
lected from Bruce Williams, Boyd
Rupp, Nav Mcclure, Bill ludlow,
John vibber, Robert Campbell,

uted tilis week and a fairish turn

Fruit Pay Roll
Tops $1,000 a Day
Packing Crews Bring Large
Sums to District; Work
to Last All Fall

Kennewick's era Of pessimism
has gradually been superseded by
a period Of activity such as the
community has not enjoyed for
several seasons past. The fruit
harvest now under way has given
employment to practically every
man and woman in the district
who cared to engage in it. In adj
dition considerable outside pop
ulation has also been employed.
With five or six packing centers
working, some Of them double
shifts, the apples are being brot
from the orchards, sorted, washed
and packed and carloads are being
started on their way East toward
the consuming centers.
A check of the packing house
indicates that better than a thous-
and dollars a day is being spent
here in the labor of getting the
apples ready for market. This es-
innate does not include the out
side workers in the orchards nor
those engaged in hauling the crop
in to the packing centers.
Work will continue in most Of
the packing houses until about the
first of the year, it is expected, so
that the district will experience
another year as has been enjoyed
IN times past.
