American Legion
To Be Organized

Feeling that in the present situation
there should be an Island post Of the
American Legion, a group Of eX-
service men are discussing the Or
ganization Of one.
State officials have been interested
in the formation of such an organiza-
ton on the Island. While the Legion
is not in any sense law enforce
ment group it has always stood for
good American principals and has had
the courage to enforce that for which
it stands.
Recently in Bothell the town was
invaded by an undesirable element,
and without any fuss Or display the
Legionnaires delivered their ultima
tum and in very few hours the
town was rid of the unlimited guests.
It is estimated that there are from
60 to 70 veterans here on Vashon-
Maury, and there should be the
nucleus Of strong, post.

DONALD MORGAN TO WRITE
FOR NEWS-RECORD COLUMNS


During the summer months the
readers of the News-Record will have
the opportunity of reading a variety
of articles on subjects, serious and
otherwise, written by our own Donald
Morgan, of whim we are all SO justly
proud
AT our request, for this week Donald
contributed some first hand impress
ions of the Republican convention
Although he felt that this might be
rather late date we felt that the
Island readers would be interested in
what one of our own boys, who was
actually on the secene, might have to
say.
Although we have been warned by
Donald, whose modesty is an out
standing characteristic, to be discreet
in our comments regarding him, we
feel that with his splendid capability,
his unusual courage in meeting life
with an unquenchable humor and
philosophy, and the opportunities he
has had, while attending Cornell, to
gain much information first-hand for
which we Of the West must depend
on newspapers, will be passed on to
his Island friends through the
columns Of the News-Record and will
be Of benefit and enjoyment to us all.

favorites and they want to know
how they are getting on. "Hows
Clara Bow? did you see Barry
more's new Baby?" as 1t so that
there is no such person as Greta
Carbon" "Why don't you make
another good picture once in
awhile?" who do you have to
look like to get in the Movies?"
"If we go to the Olympic Games can
we get in and see EN- make pic
tures?" Well they just ask you so
many questions dident hardly have
time to tell EN- who was going to
be elected President.
Now about Clara Bow. Clara is
up on her ranch in Nevada. She
married Rex Bell, boy that played
with me in "rhey Had To See
Peris." He was the sweetheart OF
my daughter margaret Churchill)
before she went to Paris. Then he
also was with us in "Lishtnin".
Now you have heard Of Ranch
es." Everything out here that is
not an apartment is Ranch.
If you got twenty feet in your
back yard its a Ranch" If
you got an old Avocado Bush,
tho matter II 1t bears or noD why
its an Avocado Ranch. Lemon
Ranches" "Orange Ranches" pea

"Squab Ranches, we even call
mine u Ranch" and there is moth
ing on it but an old Polo Field,
few calves to rope at, and some old
Cow Ponies.
Now about Barrymores new
Baby. I never did see the old one.
Or has he got another one? l be-
lieve he has, but he's got pretty
wife, and he's not bad looking him
self SO they are liable to have a
mighty pretty little Baby. This
Baby thing has got to be quite an
epidemic out here In the movies,
there is more Babies being born

Money Will Provide
Local Relief Direct

At recent meeting of the Com
mercial Club it was decided that the
relief money received from the county
funds should be expended in making
improvements that would not other
wise be made on Island roads. In
other words the money will be used
in hiring labor to do road work that
the regular road crew would not have
time for.
1t is the plan to pay in orders on
local stores rather than in cash. With
the use of this method there would
be the assurance that actual relief
was furnished
The Island has been wonderfully
blessed in taking care of its own.
None of us have much more than we
need, but unless there is an influx
of undesirebles we can weather
through.

HURST PITCHES
GOOD BALL TO
BEAT CAR MEN

Joe Hurst, backed up by alright
fielding on the part of the Golden
State Creamery baseball outfit,
turned back the championship
Studebaker team to last night
in his first start against his for
mer team mates, and raised the
buttermakers to first place in the
Ell Centro night baseball league.
The game added another to the
list of battles at Wilson Field which
have ended in small and close
scores. Two innings, the first and
the last, furnished all of the scor-
ing.
Kuhn's home run, with Howard
on base, gave the Creamery 2 to
0 lead as the victors came to bat
in the last frame, and seemed
enough to cinch the game. 1t was
we'll for the Creamery that they
crossed three more runs during that
last inning, however, for the Stud
ebakers assaulted Hurst's pitching in
their half OF the inning to take
three runs.
Circuit drives by Kuhn and j.
Ehmke for the milkmen and by
"Auzzie" Austin for the Studebak-
ers featured the contest.
The Shirer Druggists will be af-
ter their first victory in game at
8 o'clock tonight with the Mack
and Mack club, but will have to
play better baseball than last week
to get that victory. Manager John
Kepley has added several stars to
the Shirer roster, however, and is
expecting a win.

FIRST RUN OF

according to word from C. R. Smith,
vice-president of American Always,
For the first time In air transpor-
tation history it will be possible to
board multi-motored transport
plane in the west in the late after
noon, reaching New York and other
eastern points the next evening by
continuous de luxe air travel con-
suming only one day. Twenty-seven
hours is the time required from the
Pacific coast to Gotham according
to the new schedules which will be
made public within the next few
days, Smiths announcement dis
closes. The route followed will be
the same as that of the regular east
bound day schedule now in effect
which has been linking the east
with the west via the south during
the past two years. This now places
Ell Centre within less than "a hours
from such cities as Atlanta, Cincin-
natl, Columbus, Cleveland, Calves
ton, New Orleans and Chicago by
virtue of the connecting shuttle run
joining the transcontinental trunk
line at Phoenix, giving this city its
first direct coast to coast air mail
and passenger service.
The Southern Transcontinental
air mail and passenger run which
has become known as the Fair
Weather Route" was inaugurated
in October, 1880 by the American
Always and since that time their
services have been increased until
60 cities throughout the nation are
now joined by daily schedules, not
including the Alaskan division
which operates exclusively in the
Northern Territory.

A similar night flight westward
will be scheduled from Dallas off
