The appropriation covers
cost of replacing the present
Highlands pumping equip
ment and pipe lines, the
building of a power canal, a
power house and dam and the
installation of electrical gem

will be an increase amount Of
water to the Highlands now

an additional 400 acres of

Upon the completion of the

amount of water this year is

WILLSEY HURT
in CAR SMASH
Hip Broken When Autos
Crack Up; Three Others
Less Seriously Injured

Ross Willsey is in the Pasco
hospital with broken hip and
rib, Bill Worthy has broken coll
ar bone and George R. Aman and
Floyd Culley are suffering lacerat-
ed hands as the result of an auto
mobile crack-up that happened at
Albright's corner late Tuesday
evening.
Willsey, driving his Ford coupe,
struck the Chevrolet coach driven
by Aman broadside. The coach
rolled over and over off the road
into an orchard, while Willsey's
car turned over once and half,
threw Wfllsey out and pinned him
underneath. Worthy and Culley,
who were with him, were still in
side when the car came to stop.
The crash woke people living near
the corner. They pulled Willsey
out and called DR.. L. G. Spaulding,
who rushed Willsey to the Pasco
hospital, where the broken hip was
set the next morning. Mrs. L. e.
Willsey, the mother, was not mott
fled until Wednesday morning.
The front of Willsey's car was
crumpled and the door twisted,
while the coach was almost COM
pletely demolished. In explaining
the accident, Willsey declared that
he saw the other car coming, and
thought he had plenty Of time to
pass it at the corner. Aman, whose
home is at Mason, Washington,
has been here picking berries.

FROST HITS SPOTS
Tuesday Night Drop Does Small
Damage; None Wednesday

A wind that blew most of the
night saved Kennewick from frost
Wednesday night, according to A.
w. Cook, government weather bur-
eau representative. The tempera-
tiire dropped, but not low enough
to cause injury. Tuesday night we
had frost which affected the dis
trict in spots. Slight damage was
done to potatoes and beans, but in
jury to other crops was immater-
ial. The irregularity of the frost
was demonstrated by one garden
owner who reported that only
every other plant in his plot was
touched.
The Yakima papers report 25
per cent injury to the apple crop
further up the valley. Serious in
jury was also done to tree fruits
around Prosser and Grandview, too,
it is reported.
