FIRE DESTROYS.
PARRY BLOCK

Coming as climax to series OF
minor blazes occurring within the
past ten days, fire broke out at the
rear of the Public Market building
about l u. m. Tuesday morning ana
totally destroyed the building. Mrs.
Elizabeth Parry was owner of the
structure.
A transport plane which spotted
the flames from distance, flew low
and circled the town several times,
greatly aiding in awakening residents,
who Immediately rushed to the scene
and gave their assistance in control
ling the conflagration.
Four persons were sleeping in the
building and narrowly escaped the
inferno.
Firemen concentrated mainly on
saving the structures occupied by the
Home Market and Pugh Il Co. which
were closest to the flames. The abb
sence of any appreciable wind IN
doubtedly saved these places as the
flames threw terrific heat.
Persons living in the upstairs Of
the building and A. h. Chambers who
operated a shoe shop and lived in the
lower part of the building, lost nearly
all of their possessions in the building
at the time of the fire.
Loss was estimated to approximate
$4,000, portion of which was COW
cred by insurance.
Only last Friday blaze was ex-
tinguished in the rear of the struc-
ture and this, together with other
unexplainable small fires started re-

HOOP SEASON GETS UNDER
WAY WITH TWO CONTESTS

The first basketball tilt Of the
1861 season will start the years
sports off with bang tomorrow even
ing (Friday) when the Hartline teams
will challenge the locals at the local
gym. In the game between the high
school boys (the Giants) and the
Itartline high school lads the edge is
given tse locals. though both teams
lost veteran players by Last springs
graduation.
The companion game Of the pro-
gram is between the Coulee City
Girls Athletic club and the Hart
line Girls Town team. These organi-
cation are new this year and have
come into being as a result of the
fact that in the four counties OF
Grant, Douglas. Okanogan and Che
Ian. girls may not play in the name
of the high schools. There is no such
thing as q high school girls team
this year, though the personnel OF
the local town team is much the same
as it would be for the regular hign
school team if there were one The
only difference is that girls not at
tending high school who are members
of the club may also play. Thus girls
who have graduated and would be In
eligible to participate in high school
athletics, now have an opportunity to
engage in the sport.
| The girls met to organize into
club last Wednesday evening ma
drew up a set of bylaws which clear
Nv state the nature Of the organiza-
ton to be .'club' with definite
membership rules. The following Of
ficers were elected: Club manager,
Betty Davis; assistant manager Bet
tv Weller; ecretary-treasurer. Beth
, Rlain, and trainer. June Brown. Az
Y present the group plans to practaca
one evening week after school hours.
Further particulars may be secured
from the club Officers. Miss Harnet
Fisher has consented to serve as ed-
visor Of the group.
The games will begin promptly at
1880, with the box office open at
: 900 p. m. In order to get as big
: crowd out as possible every person
attending Friday nights game will
} receive a ticket good for half the
} cost of admission to the Magician
, Show which the Student association
will present next Monday evening.
There will also be between games
stunt for the entertainment of the
audience, an innovation this year. If
the crowd is large the idea will be
continued throughout the season.
Another feature will be ten-min-
utL demonstration of rules. both old
and new, of basketball. This will be-
for the benefit of the people in the
audience who are not familiar with
the rules of basketball and therefore
would not otherwise enjoy the games
to the fullest extent. The fact that
person does not know anything
about basketball will be no excuse
for him to remain away from the ga
mes this year since this new feature
, is being offered. During the first two
games this year the demonstrations
will be given.
The school needs the support or
townspeople if the basketball season
is to be success. Only through adj
mission money arc the expenses 7"
travel to other towns able to be met.
Season tickets went on sale this week
and many bought tickets who have
not been fans in previous years.
