MAKES PEACH RECORD

The Rev. Henry Attenborough,
formerly M. E. pastor here, but at
nresent stationed in Kennewick, is
making name for himself in the
Indulgence Of hobby as a grower
of large peaches.
Last Sunday Mr.. and Mrs. Geo.

measured IA inches in circumfer-

weighed 11k pounds, picked from a
tree back Of the parsonage.
The peach was placed by Dence
In the window Of the Myers-Shep-

INVENTION GETS
Space in Seaside Signa]

A recent issue of the Seaside Sig
nal carried story about the surf
sled constructed by Chas. Knowles.
superintendent of construction, for
carrying his line into the surf.
Something new in the line of fish
ing equipment, the sled is a con-
traption on steel runners with a
board mounted on hinges. Placed
in the surf, the board collapses as
the waves strike it but on the run
out it rises to catch the water. The
sled goes to sea along the bottom of
the ocean.
The invention was brought to the
attention of the Signal when Mr..
Knowles and NJ. G. Thorn, Seaside
district manager, used the sled to
take their line 300 feet into the, surf,
a distance far beyond the usual
casting range. The line used in the
test was only 800 feet in length and
it was believed that had the line
been long enough, the sled would
have travelled for several miles.
'"The efficiency of the rig was
proved when the lines came in"
commented the paper. Fishing was
good" 49,.

hint TICKETS
MADE AT TRACK
BY PADDOCK

LAUREL, Md, Oct. 29.-Possi-
bility that the counterfeit tickets
passed at the track here this week
were printed on the grounds after
it was known which horse had
won the race was seen here today.
Several men and one woman
are under suspicion, and they may
be taken into custody at any time.
One theory advanced was that
the tickets were printed on small
press concealed in an automobile
parked on the track grounds, and
that then these tickets were rushed
to the payoff windows.
Forty-two 50 win tickets were
passed on the race that was won
by R. S. Clark's Challenge Cup, a
3-year-old colt that ran here again
today.
The counterfeit tickets were dis
covered by H. A. M. Frank, pari-
mutuel manager Of the track, who
notified authorities.
Another theory held was that
the tickets were printed in a room
ing house in Laurel and rushed to
the track as soon as the result Of
| the race was posted.

LONDON WRITER
MAKES BINGHAM
TARGET OF JOKE.
Effort to Cultivate Labor
Leaders Cited

LONDON, oct. 30 (C.TP.S0.
Robert Worth Bingham, United
States ambassador, is the butt Of
a Joke told by a columnist in the
Evening Standard. The ambas-
sador, the columnist said, was
instructed by Washington to cult
vate the leaders Of the opposition
to the British national govern
ment.
DINNER is GIVEN
Accordingly, the account said,
he invited to dinner Arthur Green
wood, secretary Of the Labor Party
research department; Herbert
Morrison, one-time errand boy who
now is a laborite member Of
parliament and leader of the Lon
don county council; and Major C..
R. Attlee. laborite and official
leader Of the opposition.
The conversation moved
slowly" the columnist reported.
"'Do you do much Shooting?'
the ambassador asked Green
wood How about you Mr..
Morrison?' after receiving q
negative reply from Greenwood.
ATTLEE OBLIGES
Drawing a second blank he
turned to Major Attlee: How
about you, major. have you
ever done any Shooting2' Yes,
replied Attlee.
'Where?' continued Bing-
ham, gratified at the progress Of
the conversation.
In France replied Attlee.
"'What did you Shoot?'
"'GermanS.'"
British reporters are fond Of
poking fun at Bingham's Anglo.
plile tendencies, and his highly
cordial relations with the govern
ment.
