New York, July IA - (UP) -
The good year 1893 is likely to go
in the books as the most disast-
trous 365 days in history for sports
champions. All over the world.
and in all sorts Of playing fields,
the upstairs have been yanking
the royal purple off the kings.
You can name the major cham
laurels on the fingers of the hands
and have a couple of thumbs left
over. Two of the successful ones
are women, Mrs Helen Wills
Moody. who once more came
through at Wimbledon, and Miss
Enid Wilson, the austere English
girl who made 1t three in row
in the amateur golf championship
Of her country. Two of bookings

Chocolate, and the light-heavy-
weight Make Rosenbloom, with

when the chips were down. Track
and field came up with a cham
pion who could take 1t when the
University of Southern California
Trojans brushed aside their oppo-
sition in the l. G. A. A. A. A.
carnival.
The list, according to our hasty
check, ends right there. In all
the other fields of endeavor the
rulers have been taking 1t on the
Whiskers. Gene SaraZen took It
twice. One year ago the stocky
little fellow with the twinklinG
eyes was British and American
open golf champion. Today he's
the professional at the Miami
Biltmore, and Denny Shute' and
Johnny Goodman share his former
honors.
With the year barely past the
halfway post, better than half
dozen boxing championships have
changed hands. Jack Sharkey's
heavyweight bauble belongs to
Primo Camera.
At the turne of the year, Jackie
Fields was welterweight champion,
but he got kicked by Young Cor
bett, who, in turn, took 1t on the
chin from Jimmy McLarnin. Three
months ago Tony Canzoneri ap-
peared invincible in the 135-pound
class, yet to-day Minds him signed.
at the challenger's end, to take on
the new kingpin, Barney Ross. In
whipping Canzoneri in Chicago,
Ross also lifted the junior weltar
title which Canzoneri has only re-
Gently swiped from one Battling
Shaw.
Sarazen was not the only golf
ing figure to be dethroned. John
De Forest lost his British amateur
title to the Honorable Michael
Scott, who had been voting almost
u decade before most of the field
was born. Britain's professional
golfers established themselves as
the class of the world by taking
the Ryder cup away from America
at Southport, England.
Fred Frame title as king of the
roaring road went by the boards
when Lou Myer whipped home in
front in the Indianapolis 5O-mile
r. ce, and Ellsworth Vines was
topped from the pinnacle OF his
supremacy when he lost to Jack
Crawford. mighty Australian, In
the final round at Wimbledon.
A new champion in hockey was
crowned and the famed Stanley

GOLF
--By ART KRENZ -
TWO HANDS BETTER THAN
ONE In COLE
.By ART KRENZ =

Experts have proved that golf
is two-handed game and not ii
left-handed one as has been taught
In years gone by.
The two hands must work III
unison. Control Is necessary. The
desire to hit with the right hand
at the start of the downswinS
must be overcome.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1933-07-14

The left wrist and arm must be
given a chance to figure in the
swing, which is the main reason
for the pivot. If there is no pivot
or body turn, the club usually Is
taken back by the right hand and
dominated by the right in the
downswing.
This causes cut across the ball
from the outside in, which must be
avoided If one Is to hit straight
ball

STATE TO DO
ROAD WORK
BY DAY LABOR
Local Taxpayers to Get Pref
erence on Paterson Job; An
Must File Applications with
Chamber Secretary

Construction work on the North
Bank highway from Paterson to
the county line will be carried on
by the state by force account, ac-
cording to word received here ear
ly this week. Owing to difficulty
in having the bonds accepted, the
Oregon firm which had been award
ed the contract, was unable to go
on with the job. Partially as a re-
suit Of the work of the local road
committee from the Kennewick
chamber of commerce, it was de-
cided to carry on the work by the
state, using wherever possible
men and teams rather than ma
chinery.
The committee has also sue
ceeded in securing the promise
from state officials that tax pay
ers of Benton, Franklin and the
lower end of Yakima county will
be given preference with the jobs.
All who wish to get work must
file applications with Mr.. Peters
at the club rooms.

Weather Moderates

The vice-like grip of winter
which has held the Bridge City
area for a week seemed to be on
the decline today with steadily
rising temperatures. Official
thermometers on the Highlands
sank to as low as a above zero, and
zero on the Pasco side of the riv-
er, establishing new lows for the
new year.
Some fear of seeded wheat lands
being frozen out were expressed,
due to the lack of a protective
snow blanket during the first Of
the cold spell. The situation how
ever, relieved yesterday when with
darkening skies a three-inch snow
blanket covered the region.
Clearing skies today and thaw-
ing temperatures give promise of
the return of moderate weather.
A number of ranchers and orch
ard. men of the district, who had
been taking advantage of the
spring-like days prior to the de-
cent Of winter, had been occupied
with early spring blowing and or
chard work.

Asparagus Growers
Favor w. w. Plant

That local grass growers will
cooperate with the Walla Walla
Icannery was expressed by H. w.
'Desgranges, manager of the Big
Y, at the chamber of commerce
luncheon this noon. Mr.. fDesgranges
stated that the matter had been
taken up with his growers, who
favored such action and a definite
agreement is only waiting the es-
tablishment of a price to be paid.
He said he was sure the cam.
merry would succeed in securing
finances to warrant the construc-
tion of their proposed enlarged
plant and that the price to be paid
for the grass would no doubt be
above four cents to the grower.
In this case, he stated that the
cannery grass from his organiza-
ton would no doubt be contracted
for by the Walla Walla concern.

Outlook is Fine for
Good H. s. Ball Team

High school coach, Boyd Jacobs,
predicted a rosy outlook for the
schools baseball prospects this
week in sizing up his men, finding
that all are to be veterans with the
exception of Herb Neil, star pitch
er of last year.
Those who are back are: Bob
Johnson, catcher; Lester Brown,
second base; Art GLASGOW, short;
Lyle Brown, third base; Sam Co.'S
slett, left field; Harrington, cen
ter field; Bill Hembree, right
field and Gene Shanafelt, first
base.
Last season the team made a
reputation for themselves by play
ing twelve games and losing only
2.
Jacobs declared high school
spring athletics are to be confin-
ed to baseball, as no track teams
are to be organized.

SETTLERS SEEK
HOMES In NV.

Attracting Citizens to Dis
trict; Need Cash to Operate

A conference to consider land
settlement in the Northwest was
called by the Spokane chamber of
commerce Tuesday. Representa-
tives of the four railroads were
present as well as citizens from
various towns in the Inland EN-
pire. HI. G. Fyfe, representing the
local chamber and <. j. Brand,
manager of the Highlands district,
attended the session. Mr.. Fyfe
gave a report of the meeting at
the noon meeting of the local
chamber today.
While the speakers told of q
definite drift of settlement toward
the Northwest, all agreed that to
be desirable settler the prospect
must have sufficient capital to car
ry him thru at least his first year
of operation.

MUST APPLY
DIRECT FOR
FRUIT LOANS
No County Organization to
Pass on Applications; Agent
to Give Information and
Blanks for Growers

/ We have received several re-
quests for information in regard
to fruit loans or loans to fruit
growers through the Agricultural
Credit Corporation. We have been
corresponding with Mr.. Towle of
the Agricultural Credit Corpora
ton and just received a letter from
him stating that papers for fruit
production loans would probably
not be available until early in Feb
ruary, says a statement given out
this week by E. C. Durdle.
The same thing will be true of
the fruit loans as is of all other
types of agricultural loans under
the Agricultural Credit Corpora
tion. Namely, that these loans are
made direct to the grower from the
Agricultural Credit Corporation.
The method of procedure is for
the party wishing to make loan
to write to r. E. Towle, Agricul-
tural Credit Corporation, Spo-
kane, requesting blanks for appli-
cation for the crop or livestock en-
terprize on which you wish to bor-
row. Blanks will be sent to those
making the request and after
these are filled out and returned to
the corporation those in charge
will then either inform the grow
er that his request has been turn
ed down or an appraiser will be
sent to the farm to go over care
fully the appraisal of the gener-
al situation. IF the situation is sat
isfactory at this time then Sne
loan will be made.
There are no county committees
or local committees cooperating
with the Agricultural Credit cor
poration in assisting with this
work this year. We understand
however, that creameries, feed
dealers, and probably later, fruit
warehouses will have blanks and
will assist growers in filling them
out.
The county agricultural agent
will be glad to give specific in
formation or assist in any way we
can.
News items has suggested the
possibility of loans up to twenty
flee cents per box.

More than a hundred local FAM
