1873 ON WPA AS
HARVEST STARTS
MAJORITY UNABLE TO
Do HEAVY WORK; NO
SHORTAGE SEEN

Although harvesting which be-
gan this week will require hun
dreds of field workers in Redwood
county, WPA rolls have not been
cut materially.
In the last 80 days only about
six WPA men have left for other
employment, leaving the total
WPA employment in the county
at 1873. 1t is expected that about
II more will leave for harvesting.
The majority are not physically
fit for heavy harvest work. Their
average age is At and some of
them are as old as IS.
At present there are Is truck
drivers, 26 workers at the Red
wood Falls athletic field, AZ on
the countrywide road and bridge
project, II repairing curbs and
cutters at Belview, IL on the Wa
basso sidewalk project, 80 build
ing the Lamberton bridge and IL
Indians working on the new COM
munity house at the agency.
According to j. w. Lauterbach,
head of the National Re-employ-
ment service here about 800 men
will be placed in harvest work
through his office alone. The Of
fee has sent QUESTIONABLE to
every farmer in Redwood and
Renville county and has already
received many requests for help.
There does not appear to be 4
shortage of men willing and able
to do harvest work in the county.

RADIO SEAMAN ON
COLORADO

Lamberton-One of the first
battleships ordered to the How
land Island region to search for
Amelia Earhart and her navi-
gator, lost on a round-the-world
flight, was the U. S. S. Colorado
on which Joseph Bauer Jr., son
of Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph Bauer of
Lamberton, is radio seaman.
Bauer was at the radio in mid
ocean when orders were received
to proceed to the group of islands
where the famous flyer was be-
lieved down. After covering a
large area in the futile search, the
Colorado has been ordered back
to Honolulu. Other ships particul-
arly the Lexington carrying so
planes, will continue the search
until Saturday when efforts will
be abandoned unless trace is
found before that time.

SCOUTS SEE F. r. FOR

GATHERING

Probably the biggest thrill in
their trip to the Boy Scout jam
boree in Washington, D. c. was
their inspection of the liner Nor
mandie at New York, according
to George Townsend, Robert Paff-
rath and John Bovee of Redwood
Falls who returned here Wednes-
day afternoon.
The three left Redwood Falls
June &c, spent two weeks at the
camp and then went to New York
and Niagara Falls before return
ing home.
Perhaps the most fun was get
ting into movies at children's
prices by virtue of the youthful
lines of their Scout uniform
shorts, they said. Townsend who
will not divulge his age was as
sistant Scoutmaster of the Mime
sofa council troop. Paffrath, 10,
is an Eagle Scout and Bovee, ID,
a Star Scout. Even William Full
ton, area Scout executive of Man
kato who is slightly bald and
slightly rotund, was adjudged a
mere boy at theatre box offices.
The laugh of their trip was
brought on by Minnesota scout
from this vicinity who, when
viewing the original copy of the
Declaration of independence,
asked which man was the Mime
sofa signer.
The boys lived with an army
of $4,000 other scouts in tent city
in Virginia, about two miles from
the Washington monument. Troop
and patrol flags flew before their
squad tents, each of which housed
eight boys. The Minnesota patrols
had live mascots at their tent
doors all during the jamboree and

Pheasant patrol engineered the dis

Miles of Road
WILL MATCH U. S. FUNDS,
LEVY SET AT ANNUAL
BOARD MEETING

The Redwood county road and
bridge fund was raised from $75,-
600 to $135, 900 when the county
commissioners set the annual tax
levy at their meeting Monday and
Tuesday.
The increase was necessitated
by heavy expenses in snow plow-
ing and other upkeep which was
paid with money borrowed from
other funds.
The commissioners passed a re-
solution agreeing to accept and
match a federal appropriation of
$12,350 for 1887 and 1888 for i'm
provements on secondary and
feeder roads. The four year fed
eral allotment which must be
matched with county money Is
$24, 700.
They also designated that the
funds viii be spent in repairing
and rebuilding A miles of road
including one route which runs
nearly across the county north
anG south. 1t starts at the Bel
view bridge and goes south to the
Iucan corner, west to Lucan and
south to highway IA. Another sec
mon to be improved starts at the
Milroy corner and runs north to
the Yellow Medicine county line,
distance OF about seven miles.
Two miles CT road from Walnut
Grove South to the county line
will also undergo repairs.
Other funds were set at their
1886 figures for the levy. Reeve
nue. is 100000; the poor fund,
$50, 900 and old age assistance,
$40, 900.
The federal allotments of road
funds were made by dividing
them among all counties on
basis of population, road mileage
end area.
OF the s2,2ee,7os given the
state, st. Louis county will re-
ceive $161 100 because of its great
area and Hennepin county, $685.
988 due to its population.
Brown county will receive &c.
$50 for a two year period; Rem
vile $13,830; Yellow Medicine
$40, 800; Lyon $3.50.
The resolution to accept the
money must be sent to govern
ment authorities before July 20.

rated to other counties. 49,,

PALMER TOPPLES STARS
IN CHAMPIONSHIP
FLIGHT
F LAS HI

After making a birdie
on the tenth and the
eleventh in par, Kise was
five up on the twelfth hole
in his match with ZieSke
at 80 a. m. today.
Classed as a "giant-killer" by
Twin Cities sports writer's follow
ing his performance Wednesday,
Palmer Kise of Redwood Falls IS
the only outstate player remain
ing in the quarter-final round of
the state amateur golf tourna-
ment being played at the Country
club course, Minneapolis.
His opponent today is Bill lie
ske who is playing on his home
course where he qualified with a
"a and II for 145, the fourth low
score of the qualifying round.
Zieske missed chance for medal
honors when he became involved
on the last hole.
Kise made the championship
fight with IS and 70 for, 153 and
went on Wednesday to down two
opponents whose qualifying scor-
es were better than his. Herb
Lewis of the Country club course
who qualified with 148 went down
four and three and Bill White of
the Interlachen club was an cas-
Ter victim, seven and six. White
had qualified with 76 and rs for
Isl.
If Kise has any advantage in
the round which started at 9:15
a. m. today it is that Zieske had
much the tougher match in his
second round Wednesday where
ne defeated Al Clasen of Hillcrest
one up on the nineteenth hole.
Clasen is state open champion.
In his first round match Zieske
defeated Henry Robinson, Super
ior, six and four.
