DENTAL CLINIC FINDINGS
PROVE VALUE OF DAILY CARE

A great improvement in daily care
of the teeth Is shown at both the
White Bluffs and Hanford high schools,
according to DR.. E. F. Newton, exam
ming dentist, and Miss Alice Brakel
county nurse who conducted dental
clinic in the two towns Tuesday and
Wednesday. The children's teeth are
in good condition and very few rec
concentrations were made. Although
most of them have had little work
done on their teeth in the past two
years, the personal care they have
given them has had its good effect.

Road Project
Needs Boosting
Association Begins Work To
Have Merits of Project
Recognized

There is but slight chance OF con-
struction of road between Vernita
and Vantage Bridge at this time, mem
bers of the Sam Hill Everyday High
way association reported this week on
their return from Olympia, where they
had interviewed state highway depart
ment officials.
1t is impossible for the state to use
any money on the improvements OF
roads other than those placed on the
state highway system by legislative
enactment, Lacey Murrow, Director OF
Highways, told the group, adding that
the state has no information IN re-
CARDS to the extent of funds which
will become available through recent
congressional action, nor the manner
in which such funds may be allocated
Members of the association making
the trip were w. E. Southland, Ephrata,
T. B. Jones, Wenatchee, John Dam
and Lewis Sloan, Richland, and q. Il.
Chase, White Bluffs.
An intensive campaign will be un-
dertaken by the organization to have
the merits of this road recognized, With
the hope of securing construction as
soon as possible, they said on their re-
turn. The first step in this program
will be to secure a survey and cost esti-
mate of the project.
The project as outlined by the as
ISOLATION, includes the construction OF
approximately 35 miles of road between
Vantage Bridge and Vernita on the
west side of the Columbia, providing
connection between State Road NO.
at Vantage and State Road NO. 8
west of KenneWick.
With the construction Of this link,
they assert new outlet would be
opened up for producers OF the Priest
Rapids and lower Yakima valleys to
the markets of North Central WASH
ington and the Coulee Dam develop
ment. The project was originally con-
ceived by the late Sam Hill, who re-
garded its construction necessary for
national defense.

Hanford Loses To
Toppenish, 100
Sundays Games
Toppenish, 10, Hanford 8.
sunnyside 4, Yakima !.
,~~ ~ s..s~-, n

Hanford and Toppenish, tied for
first place In the valley league battled
through twelve-inning marathon
Sunday, Toppenish breaking the dead
lock by forcing run across with two
out in the twelfth to win, 1913. A
high wind blowing straight toward
home plate, raised plenty of dust and
made the ball hard to field, contri-
buting to the IS hits and seven errors
of the game
Toppenish broke into the scoring in
the third when they pushed across
three runs, but Hanford came back in
the fifth to score four runs. Nc
Culloch led the scoring, reaching first
when he was hit by the pitcher and
advancing to third on Hartmann's and
DeRigios singles. McConnachie's sac
rifice brought In two scores when the
catcher let the ball get past him on
bad throw. DeRigio and Weber
scored the other two runs.
| Toppenish went back into the lead In
| the sixth. With the bases loaded and
none out, the next two batters were
forced out on inf1eld flies, but a line
drive to center by Piland brought In
two scores, another following on the
next play. Piland was caught at home
on an attempted double steal.
| In the 7th, DeRigio and McCon-
nachie singled and Weber reached
first when hit by the pitcher. Joe
Wagner's double brought in two runs
and Emil Wagner's single brought In
two more, putting Hanford back in
the lead.
The eighth inning saw Hanforc
score one run with Toppenish tying
up the score with three runs in the
last half. From then on both teams
settled down to play defensive ball
Toppenish breaking up the game with
run in the twelfth after two men
were out.
Next Sunday, Hanford faces anothe,
tough game, meeting Wapato on the
latter's field. Wapato has shown plenty
of hitting power this year, defeating
Yakima 2l2 Sunday, their only de-
feat being at the hands of Toppenish
The locals, however, have established
themselves as one of the most dan
gerous teams in the league and are
hopeful of redeeming their defeat las
Sunday.
