PLAN CARD PARTY
FOR PIANO FUND

The White Bluffs Junior Women's
club will be hostesses at a card party
at the high school on Saturday eve
ming, January 10. The party, which
will include both bridge and pinochle,
will begin at o'clock. The admission
charge is Is cents, which includes re-
freshments.
The card party is sponsored by the
club for the benefit of the high school
piano fund. The school is badly IN
need of second piano, to save wear
and tear on the present instrument
caused by carrying 1t up and down
the stairs from the auditorium to the
gymnasium. If the popularity OF the
card parties held this winter Is any
indication, there should be large at
| tendance at the affair.

With respect to location Of vineyards,
the same conditions that govern the
selection of sites for tree fruits apply
with equal force to grapes. 1t Is sug-
gested particularly that south or
east slope is preferable to a north or
west slope.
The Coast Wineries of Yakima,
whom we contacted on several oc-
casions recently, state they will con-
tract to take the product from 5Oo
acres of grapes in this locality and
pay 5000 above the California price
based on variety and sugar content
providing $50 worth of stock in their
company, per acre of ground, is SUBJ
scribed. A condition of the contract
being that $25 of this amount may be
paid in grapes. With each two shares
of common stock they issue one share
of preferred 6 per cent stock which
the company is obligated to buy back
within a period of three years at $lO.5(
per share.
They will also have some informa-
ton on rooted plants on which the!
will advise shortly. They advise tina

Hanford Boys Win
By Score Of s to 4

In a game which saw but one field
goal made, the Hanford high school
boys defeated the White Bluf1s team
in the White Bluffs gym Friday night
by the remarkably low score of to 4.
The White Bluffs girls defeated the
Hanford girls, 26 to ID.
The White Bluffs girls had little
trouble in scoring their victory, the
first in their conference schedule. BY
the end of the first half they had a
lead of 1872, but In the third quarter
the Hanford girls began to find the
basket, tallying II points before the
White Bluffs team began another scor-
ing streak which gave them eight more
points before the final whistle blew.
The boys game was featured by the
defensive work of both teams and the
calling of many penalties. In the t1rst
half neither team had more than one
or two opportunities to score field goals
and these few shots were wide. Botn
teams were called frequently for tech
nical FOULS but even on the free throws
the ball refused to drop into the bas-
ket, the half ending 81 in White
Bluffs favor.
During the second half White Bluffs
dropped in two more free throws
Griner of Hanford made the only tielc
goal and his teammates dropped II
three more foul shots, giving them
margin of two points by which thu
game was won. During the last quar-
ter the White Bluffs offense began tt
function and they had several oppor'
tunities to score, but were unable tt
hit the basket.
Hanford now has two victories ant
one defeat while White Bluffs has on
win and two losses In the conferenc
games.
On Friday evening the White Bluff
teams will be hosts to the R1verv1eN
squads while on Saturday evening tn
Kennewick teams will come to Hanfor
for non-conference double-header

Hog Prices Jump;
Apples Look Better

A rise Of from 40 to IS cents In quo
tations on hogs was the bright spot
In the livestock and produce news
this week. The advance brings the
price of choice 100 to 210 pound hogs
to $685. per hundred, which Is S3.l5
higher than the top price last October.
Beef prices ranged from 1925 to
$3.75 for good cows to $5.75 on choice
steers.
Butterfat and eggs continued at the
same level, the quotation on butterfat
to the producer being 3lls cents per
pound while eggs, average on large
white, are bringing the producer from
% to Is cents per dozen.
Demand for apples has been 1ncreas-
ing during the past month, resulting
in slightly higher prices, and 1t Is eX-
pected that quotations will continue
to advance. The highest local quota
ton on extra fancy Winesaps reported
to the Spokesman has been 90 cents
per box, fob. Slightly higher quota
lions have been reported from Wen
atchee and Yakima. Most of the In
creased demand has been in the ex-
port market.
! Prices on hay dropped somewhat
following the recent lowering of the
barrier against Importation OF Can
adian hay, but hay growers OF this
state have been promised aid by the
state congressional delegation, which
this week protested the act to the farm
administration. The farm admin1stra-
ton, it is said, has promised to sene
a man from Portland to make q thor
ough investigation in this state.

The value of traffic lights as an &C.
cident preventative formed the sub
ject of a prolonged debate between
Traffic Director Van Duzer and Rep
resentative Cannon, Democrat, OF
Missouri, during recent hearings on
the 1896 District estimates.
Van Duzer insisted the lights had
cut down accidents at street inter-
sections, but Cannon remarked:
We'll, the more lights we install
the more people we kill, and possibly
it would be more humane for us to
desist from installing more lights"
Previous Fund Increase.
Cannon, who is chairman Of the
House Subcommittee on Appropria-
lions which framed the 1886 District
appropriation bill, pointed out that
last year the Traffic Department was
given an increase over the budget
estimates to provide extra trafnc
lights to insure the safety OF the
streets, but the fatality list shattered
all previous records.
Van Duzer, however hted statistics
showing that accidents at interSec-
tions had been reduced so per cent
after the installation of lights, and
declared the increase in the death
toll was due to fast driving and utter
disregard for stop signs.
why this sudden changer" asked
Cannon. People have been driving
automobiles ever since they were in
vented, and why the sudden increase
in speed?"

FOR zoo BUILDINGS
P. w. A. AIIots Fund for
Relief of Crowded AMI
NAL Quarters.

An allotment of s680,0O0 was made
to the Zoo today by the Public Works
Administration for new buildings to
relieve crowded conditions in the ami
NAL quarters.
In making the announcement at
Administrator Ickes' Office, the au-
thoriZed construction was not itemized,
and at the Office of Dr. William A.
Mann, director, it was said that Zoo
authorities do not know specifically
what building plans we're approved.
The allotment was several thousand
dollars less than the sum originally
requested
DR.. Mann planned a conference
later today with P. w. A. officials to
learn just what part of his program
had been approved.
There has been no new construc-
ton at the Zoo since the reptile house
was completed about three years ago,
although a new pen, with artificial
rocky ledgeS, and house for the
mountain sheep and goats were
started, but never completed. Repairs
also have been made, including several
new fences
Only one building, according to
present plans, is to be remodeled or
enlarged. The new bird house is al
ready filled to overfowing and Zoo
authorities hope to build an annex.
All other construction will be new,
the present lion house, elephants
quarters, monkey house and other old
buildings being in good condition.

probably will have his entire program

Traffic Signals and Tolls in Direct
Ratio, Declares Representative Can

"Well," answered Van Duzer, they
are doing it all over the United
States. There has been a IS per cent
increase in fatalities over the country
during 1884"
What is the explanation, then?"
inquired Cannon.
Il do not know" Van Duzer an

"You have had unusual opportu-
mites to study the subject" said Can
non. You should be a specialist.
and when you say you do not know
it is a rather humiliating admission. "
without Explanation.
''Well. I am not alone in not know
ing" insisted Van Duzer. "At the

automobile administrators they said
they did not know. and the insurance
companies do not know
when the man in charge Of our
Department Of Vehicles and Traffic
sees the number of fatalities due to
traffic accidents on the streets of the
city rise from 80 to 122 in one year, VI
declared Cannon, "he is open to a
charge Of incompetency when he ad-
mits he cannot explain it,"
Later, Cannon pointed out that Ber-
lin, Germany, had abandoned the use
Of traffic lights after an experiment
but Van Duzer explained there is one
motor vehicle there for every A per-
sons, and repeated his statement that
the lights are needed in Washington
to keep down the accident rate.

Check GangsterS.

Selection of the personnel OF the

gangsters or undesirable persons might
be found. Its members will work di-
rectly under Inspector Burke and
Capt. Bernard w. Thompson, assist
ant chief of detectives. They will re-
port to the Detective Bureau and not
to the precincts.

augurated in the handling of known
gamblers. Persons arrested by the
new squad will be booked, photo
graphed and hngerprinted at the De-
