Ball Team Is
Set For Tough
Pennant Drive
More Reserve Strength
Gives Club New
Confidence

Confident that they are going to
make as good a record as they made
last year-or even better players OF
the White Bluffs Hanford baseball
team are looking forward to sun
day, April IL, which marks the
opening Of play in the valley league.
We've got good team this year,
is the sentiment of the players, and
if the local fans will give us their
SUPPORT, We'll make a real showing"
Il will take combination of good
players, aggressiveness and plenty OF
moral support from the bleachers
if the team does live up to its rep
utation of last year, when they
finished in a tie for second place,
for a survey of the other six teams
in the league shows that they will
have plenty of tough competition.
The Yakima Ship-By-Truck nine,
which captured the second-half
championship last season, dropped
out recently, and the Yakima Red
and Whites have entered in their
place. This aggregation has lots OF
strength, and last year took the
measure of several valley league
teams as we'll as other speedy out
fits.
Goldendale is also new outfit
and claims to have plenty OF gooc
PLAYERS to draw from. Prosser Will
have a number of former Grand
view players to strengthen it's roster
and sunnyside and Toppenish have
always had hashy aggregations. The
Nippons, a Japanese team which i
playing it's first season IN this loop
has a reputation of being fast AM
aggressive.
Pasco, which had been scheduled
to enter the league, has droppe'
out, making a seven-team leagu
this season, each team drawing tW
byes to even up the schedule.
While the local team has los
several veterans from last year
outfit, number of new players ar
showing up we'll, and it is expecte
that this years outfit will be jus
as strong, or even stronger, in ever
position. One big advantage tn
year is that they have plenty
reserve strength, which they MISE
greatly in the past few years.
|. j. S. Harris, superintendent OF tt
Hanford schools, will manage tt
team this season.
The seasons schedule has not y
been drawn up by the league OH

team will play its first game awe

first glimpse Of league basebs

No Worry for
Baby, TWO

Friday the thirteenth or no, 2
year-old Francis Pope isn't wor-
ried by the fact that today's his
birthday. AS a matter of fact
Francis isn't worried by much Of
anything yet. Furthermore he's
been too interested in such vital
things as warm meals and pretty
toys to pay much attention to su-
perStitions.
Besides, there will be some extra
daintieS today at 1924 Otis St.
N. E., where Francis lives, and who
knowS-there may be some new
toys on the way also. Certainly
there's nothing unlucky about that.
Francis is the youngest son of
Steve Pope, fireman attached to
Engine 6. His brothers, Joseph
and Edward, of st. Johns College;
Thomas Lee, of the Model School:
his sister, Ann Marie, of st. An
thongs School, and his mother are
all going to help him celebrate.

ton, D. c., within a short time, it
was announced today.
John D. M. Hamilton, chair,
man Of the national committee,
declared he had perfected plans
to open "the largest permanent
headquarters in the party'S his
tory" in the Nations Capital.
Deficit considerable"
Although details were meager,
it was indicated by Hamilton and
Governor Landon that the Re
publicans intend to use their
Washington headquarters as the
focal point in a reorganization
plan to bring the party back in a
strong fight in 1910.
Hamilton turned his attention
today toward meeting the party's
deficit. He said:
"The deficit will be consider
able. 1t will be met largely by
small contributions"
TIME REQUIRED
In answer to queries as to what
the election meant to the Republi-
can party, Governor Landon re-
piled:
This campaign demonstrated
that you can't build an Organiza-
ton in four months"
Hamilton intends to work from
Washington to set up chairman
or executive secretary in each State
with a publicity bureau in order
that "the party's arguments can
be made public at all times instead
of just before election"

Highest U. S. Lighthouse

The highest and the lowest
lighthouses in the United States
are one and the same. The light
on Lehua Island, $50 miles north
west of Honolulu, in the Terri
tory of Hawaii, stands 709 feet
above the sea, higher than any
other in American waters, says
Pan Pacific Press Bureau. But the
lighthouse itself is only 10 feet
high, the lowest of its kind in the
National Lighthouse Service.

Out to the balcony Peril1a went,
where the morning sun was just be-
ginning to tighten the horizon.
Calmly quietly, she sat, in big easy
chair, half wondering what it all
meant.
Yet, think coherently she could
not; her brain seemed Incapable Of
definite action. Now it seemed in
evitable that Corey should step out
through the French window, and
quickly she knew she should never
see him again.
Never see him again! No, no that
wasn't possible; that, of all things
couldn't be!

''This is Boynton my chauffeur,

No further word was spoken, until
Dock Horribly arrived. After a brief
examination, he said, ''He is dead;

Perilla answered, 'He is my hus-
