Henry Clay Agnew
Says Issues Definite

The issues before King County
voters in the Prosecuting Attor-
ney race are unmistakable, states
Henry Clay Agnew, who ran far
ahead of all candidates on both
Democratic and Republican tickets
in the primaries and received more
votes than any other candidate for
that office.
The voters want impartial law
enforcement, in the nerve center
of law enforcement, the prosecu-
tors office, he believes, and will
complete the job that started in
Seattle with the election of May
or Langlie. Agnew has taken a
very courageous stand throughout
his campaign to be returned to
the prosecutors office, where as
deputy prosecutor for the period
of a year he made an exceptional
record for winning a number of
difficult cases for the county.
Law violators are the only ones
who have anything to fear at Ag-
news hands, he affirms, as he
launches his final drive for election
November on an efficiency plat
form that includes experienced
personnel in his legal staff, econ
omical operation of the office, ter
mination of illegal price-fixing tac-
tics by either labor leaders or bus
mess and trade associations, which
he declares results in increases in
the cost of living to the general
public, prosecution of those guilty
of goon-squad violence, and an end
to the harmful publicity the North
west has received from racketeer-
ing activities in the past.
Agnew is in thorough accord
with the work of Judge Longs
juvenile court, and pledges it his
support. Mature criminals, how
ever, will receive his first atten-
ton, he declares, that being the
province of the prosecuting attor-
ney's office. Agnew has had twen-
ty years trial experience in King
County, is highly regarded by the
legal profession of the Northwest
and seeks election as a natural
advancement in his chosen calling

Nighthawks, Caseys in
Battle Royal to 90 Tie
By Jacque b. ChappeIl

by Jacque d. Onappen
In two games that failed to pro-
duce any scores Joe and Molly Fan
saw a game so full of thrills that
people are still talking about it
The first game saw the league
leading Italian club held to its sec
ond tie in two weeks by the 146th
Field Artillery, which ended 90.
Possibly no game in the Com
munity League history has there
ever been played a more spectac-
ular contest than the Black and
Tan-Knights of Columbus encoun-
ter. Stopping three touchdown
marches cold, the Tans showed a
superiority in their goal line stand
to any other team on the field.
The Black Hawks threatened to
score also on three occasions but
were held.
Intense feeling between the Ca
seys and the Hawks smoldered
throughout the game and two K.C.
men were banished from the game.
If you ever tried to get a
bone from hungry Bulldog
then you know what a time the
Caseys had trying to score in the
last minute of play. Fighting
to tally the Nighthawks held
the kos on the one foot line
from where the ball was moved
to the half inch line for stalIing.
Penalized for unnecessary rough
ness, the Hawks took the ball
from the Knights on their 15-
yard line where the game ended.
Passes from the Enterprise will
take you to these games so be
sure and clip them out.
A thrill second was the order
of play in the game as the fans
were kept on pins and needles by
spectacular passes, double laterals,
fake reverses, half spinners, line
bucks, and end around plays. The
Tans use a large assortment of
plays, many of which if put to
use more often would be sure yard
age gamers if not touchdown plays.
