DAY AT PROSSER

The fifteenth annual Field Day at
the Irrigation Branch Experiment Sta
ton at Prosser will be held Wednes-
day, June IL, according to recent
announcement by H. P. Singleton, sup
eriltendent.
The Washington Irrigation Insti-
tute and the Woman's Clubs of the

liams, who introduced in the legisla-
ture of 1917 the act creating the 1rri-

Weather AS
Sun Hits 90
River Begins Steady Rise;
Six Feet Below Last
Years Level

Delayed by a backward spring OF
cool days and colder nights, summer
weather made it's initial appearance In
the valley this week. The highest tenn
perature recorded was 80 degrees on
the 21st, with minimum temperature
that same night of 60 degrees. Local
weather prophets are of the opinion
that within the next few days the
valley will be roasting under blazing
sun.
The present spring has contrasted
greatly with the spring of 1884. Who
here can forget that 22nd of April
when the mercury jumped to lob out
Of clear sky, so to speak? And the
fifteenth and twenty-second days OF
May saw temperatures of "a degrees
which stretched to SO on the twenty
third And last year the first cherries
were picked on May S; on the present
date they are still far from ripe.
Although the river rose nine-tenths
of a foot on Wednesday and had rts-
en- two-tenths in four hours today,
Thursday, it is still six feet below the
level of the same date last year. Dur
ing the week the water has broken
through to the slough and Barrett's
island is completely surrounded.
Temperatures during the past week,
as recorded at the Hanford weather
station, were:

C.. ID. AbercrOnlbie
At Accident Scene

There wasn't any noise or any KIND
Of warning; ! Just happened to look
back over my shoulder and see 1t as
the bricks started to tumble" said q.
D. Abercrombie in speaking of the &C.
cident In Yakima on Sunday in which
cornice Of the Mercy building gave
way, showering people on the street
below with bricks and debris and
throwing twenty-five or thirty people
who had been watching the parade
from the roof to the street. Mr.. Aber-
crombie and his wife and John Free
man were standing about two feet IN
from the curb and directly under that
part of the Structure which gave way
"Believe me, I grabbed my wife and
ran for the street. All I could think
about was to get Quit" The people
standing directly behind the Aber-
crombies were injured by the falling
bricks.
The spectacular accident occurred
on the last day of the Yakima cele-
bration of it's fftieth birthday, while
the parade was passing by. One young
man was killed, five were critically in
jured, and thirty more were treated
In hospitals for broken limbs, frac-
lures, cuts bruises and minor injuries.
Jess Brown and Mrs. Frank Taylor
we're among other White Bluffs people
who saw the cornice give way but were
out of the danger zone. An Indian
riding in the parade appeared to hear
the first cracking noises and pointed
to the building just as the bricks be-
gan to fall. The frame structure was
topped by brick cornice which over
hung the street slightly and also
fenced in the roof. On preceding days
people had been warned away from
this vantage point and all regular en-
frances blocked. Those on the roof
Sunday reached it from other build
ings. Warnings to them had been
broadcast by loudspeakers from the
street and number of people were
cautious enough to stay away from
the extreme edge.
According to Mr.. Abercrombie, there
wasn't sound from the bystanders
who beheld the catastrophe while the
bodies and bricks and timbers were
falling. There was iiJtle Chance Of
escape for those directly in line as the
crowds hemmed them in on all sides.
It was with great difficulty that the
police managed to drive the swarming
masses of people back SO that the
mangled bodies might be placed on
stretchers and removed to hospitals
A fire engine stood by and 1t wasn't
until the people were warned In all
earnestness that unless they made way
the hose would be turned on them that
room was made to care for the In
jured and clear away the debris.
Strangely enough, although the side
of the building cracked slightly onl.
one window was broken In the catas
trophe.
