I think, unbeaten. Track men took the
Little Three championship and did fair
~ well in the intercollegiate. Soccer
lost only to Williams last year and beat
williams this year. And Brown. And
Harvard. Hockey holds its own fairly
well. This years foot ball team lost
only to Princeton and Williams and
was tied by Tufts.
Varsity contests are held on Pratt
Field. But there Is also Hitchcock Field
It contains two or three gridirons, two
or three diamonds and score OF tennis
courts. The outdoor track on Pratt Is
supplemented by the indoor track in the
cage. There are Is fraternities at Am
herst and the non-fraternity men form
the fourteenth group under the name
of MI Phis. This fourteen-club league
completes in touch foot ball, track, base
ball, basket ball and singing. In addi-
ton, there are class contests, dormitory
contests, just general spontaneous con-
tests of various descriptions, impromptu.
Every student unable to present doc
tors certificate is an athlete OF some
sort. I found that out when there %
years ago. endeavored to avoid gym
naSium on the ground that was get

to put in my three hours a week broad
swording with a member of the faculty
who turned out to be New England
champion. I got my exercise.
Some Rigid Rules.
"Overstressed athletics? Maybe. But
any coach who has worked at Amherst
for a generation is apt to state that
preXy's team of scholastic ineligibles
could lick his varsity almost any day.
The Carnegie Foundation failed to in
clude Amherst among the lily-whites,
apparently for the reason that the
alumni secretary was in position to
proselyte II he felt inclined. However,
proSelyted or not--the incoming athlete
has to furnish four years of Latin and
the other elements OF n rather stiff high
school course: and must maintain an
average of pretty close to 10 or get off
the squad. Scholarships are awarded by
the trustees and forfeited ipso facto by
one funk.
"A boy conditioned in his midterm
examinations cannot even he initiated
into the fraternity that has pledged him,
let alone go out for team. And this
ineligibility does not mean that he can
go out on the second eleven and die
anonymously for dear old Amherst. He
gets of the squad. Pronto. The scho-
laStic requirements can be enyiSaged by
the fact that over 20-year average
only SO per cent OF each class graduates.
There are no coaches not included in
the faculty roster. There are no students
with their full quota Of arms and legs
not participating in some sports. And
there are no courses in whiting, car
looming or landscape gardening"

HERD IMPROVEMENT WORK
TO BE RESUMED

The County Extension Agent has
been visiting dairy farmers during
the forepart of the week getting a
check on those who are anxious to
get into the work of the testing Associa-
ton again. A new man has been
secured for the work and is now at
work in Walla Walla County. 1t is
expected that he will be available for
work in this County about the goth or
21st. Farmers who have not been call
ed upon and who wish to get into
this work again should take the mat
ter up Immediately with the County
Agent as only limited amount of
time is available on the part of the
tester.
The National Dairy Council in
their suggestions for solution of the
present Dairy situation suggested, as
one of the best measures, the testing
of the herd through the Herd I'm
provement Association and the weed
ing out of Improbable cows. Too
much cannot be said along this line
and we again urge that dairymen find
out just what their cows are doing
and save only the profitable ones.

WOMAN's CLUB NOTES

Sixty-one children were examined
at the Baby clinic at the Presbyterian
church Thursday of last week. This
included a few beyond pre-school
age. The clinic is sponsored by the
Womans Club and is an annual in
stitution. 1t was conducted by DR.. l..
G. Spau1ding and present were Mrs.
Allen of the state health department
Of Seattle; Miss Marjorie McGahey
Of Kennewick; Miss Martha Day,
Benton county nurse; Mrs. Williamson,
Mrs. Kincaid and Mrs. Gibbins OF
the Woman's Club and Miss Virginia
Kincaid.
The White Bluffs children, it was
reported, were found to be generally
in a well cared for condition, fact
to be credited, DR.. Spaulding pro-
nounced, to the thorough manner in
which the mothers here have carried
out the follow-up work in previous
years.
A few cases of bad tonsils were
found, due to the epidemic of bad
colds and grippe that held the valley
in its clutches for so long time last
winter.
A fair sized crowd turned out last
Saturday in the cold wind that was
blowing, to help with the annual ceme-
terry cleanup. Although there were
not so many workers, possibly, as in
some former years, those who did
come worked hard and great deal
was accomplished during the after
noon. Weeds were raked away and
burned; locust sprouts grubbed out,
and small amount of pipe replaced
to insure water being Carried to all
parts of the ground.
A cold drink and cakes were SER
we'd to the workers during the after
noon by the committee from the
Woman's Club, which has the upkeep
Of the cemetery in charge.
Water for the trees and flowers is
being piped this year from the Hawley
place.

BERRY HARVEST OVER
CHERRY SEASON ON

Although there were few ship
ments the first of the week, the
strawberry season cleaned up in this
valley last Saturday. The tonnage here,
while not large, was about an average
| crop. The comparatively cool weather
that prevailed during the harvesting
season was ideal and helped mater
tally the size of the crop. The price
that will be received by the growers
will not be definitely known until the
final returns are made but it is be-
lieved the price will be about that of
an average season. Because of the
! shortage of the crop in the Kenne-
wick Richland district this year, as
sembling of carlot shipments was
difficult and all of the berries from
here were shipped out by express.
This, of course, will cut into the net
returns.
| A fairly good crowd of growers
attended the Three Rivers Growers
association on Thursday evening of
last week. Lee M. Lampscn, general
manager of the association. reviewed
the cherry and other soft fruit opera
poets for this season. Contracts for
approximately seventeen tons of cher
ries were signed up by local growers.
Because of the shortage of the cherry
crop in the Kennewick district this
season, no attempt will be made to
assemble cherries for carlot shipments
in this valley until possibly the peak
of the season, the early shipments
going out by express. w. H. Keal
was elected as the member from this
valley on the board of trustees of the
association, to fill the vacancy caused
by the resignation of Glen Dick.
Some small shipments of Royal
AIMS and Bings were made this week
but the harvesting Of the Bings will
not start in earnest until next week.
The size of the crop here promises
to be about that of an average season.
A group of representatives of Seattle
commission houses were in the valley
the first of the week looking over the
field for early fruit and Alaska ship
ments. Included in the group were
Mr.. Hertzman of the Pioneer Fruit
company; Mr.. Rutledge of the Acme
Fruit company; Mr. Welnsteln OF
Crenshaw & Bloxom; and Mr.. Wanna
maker of c. w. Chamberlain & Com
pany.
The moth emergence since May 16
has been light and irregular. The
eoa hatch, which was expected to be-
gin the goth, was somewhat delayed
on account of the cool weather. For
those who got their apples covered
with a combination lead-oil spray by
the 22nd, it will not be necessary to
apply another before 10 or IL days.
For those using lead only, it will
be necessary to keep the apples COW
cred as there is a continuous light
hatch and the apples are growing
rapidly.
The moth catch at White Bluffs
and Hartford since the 10th is as fox
lows:

The 10, $50 includes the names of
So persons not listed in the first
count. The census report for this
county, which has been completed
and forwarded to Washing ton, D..
c., showed that there were 1878
farms and 220 persons out of en-

and with the exception of about a
mile and a half at Lake Keechelus
which is now under construction, the
