Valley League Standings

In one of the fastest games of the
season, Sunnyside nosed out Hanford,
2 to l, Sunday, dropping Hanford into
second place in the valley league.
McCurdy of Sunnyside and Hart
mann of Hanford both pitched stellar
ball, each granting five hits while
Hartmann famed eight and gave four
walks and McCurdy struck out three
and gave one base on balls. Fine field
ing by both teams kept the bases clean
most of the time with Barnes, Sunny
side first baseman, being charged with
the only error of the game.
In the first inning, Hanford clouted
out three hits, driving in one run, but
from then on were unable to get hit
until late in the game. Sunnyside
scored two runs in the fourth inning,
all other innings being scoreless.
Yakima went into first place Sunday
by trimming Toppenish, 81, in the
last game of the schedule for both
teams. The locals have chance to
go into tie for the leadership of
the second half next Sunday by de-
feating Prosser. In the event of Han
ford victory there will be a playof be-
tween the locals and Yakima for the
second half laurels, the winner of this
playotf to meet Toppenish, winner of
the first half, in three-game series
for the league championship.

SOME HIGHLIGHTS
IN STYLE PARADE

A word to the wise In the coun-
try where summers are hot and
long, against the heavy man-tailored
suit with its accompanying tweed
topcoat. The casual lighter weight
dressmaker type with or without q
long coat will give better and long
er service.
Don't forget that spring means
new costume jewelry, and keep an
eye out for necklaces.
Hats are with and without brims,
up and down, out In front, and
something less than nothing fiat in
the back.
For colors, blue seems to be In
the lead, but gray, brown, yellow
and the dusty pinks and zinnia tones
are important.
Velvet is carrying on into sum-
mer. With lace daytime and eve
ming clothes. wear little velvet
capes, jackets and scarfs. They
make the richest, the smartest and
the most attractive combination.
Never In years have dainty fem
mime lingerie touches been more
important.
Smart women are carefully study
ing their types and dressing them.
Even the strictly tailored clothes
must have a feminine touch.

Flapper Mode Revival Is
Suggested by Short Skirt

The introduction of the short, full
skirt In some Paris collections has
set the fashion world to wondering
whether the fiapper is returning.
Several designers showed daytime
skirts that were an inch or two
shorter than those Of the previous
season and most of them endorsed
skirt fullness. Pleats and gathers
shared attention.
Fluctuating skirt lengths also
were a sensation of the evening
modes. Ankles appeared again and
again. The skirt which was suffi-
ciently short to show footwear at
the front frequently was heightened
to touch the floor at the hack and
sometimes to form a train.
