BY OMAR

Close games were the menu last week and the importance of single pin was brought out in many of the matches. Just listen to this. Welfare took pinfall from Nauga- tuck 1452 to 1451, the Sales Engi- neers took the first game from the Servicemen 481 to 480, General over the Construction in the first 501 to 800, and so on. Don't you think that demonstrates the balance in uS- ing the handicap system as manip- ulated by the organization com- mittee of this league?
 We'll the Storemen were finally stopped cold in their headlong rush for the championship by Benneh GOldstein's Collectors. This was a nip and tuck match but it was easily seen that Joe Blum's absence hurt the Leroy men. We hope Joe will be off the sick list this week and back on the firing line. Jack Kearney's 351 and Benneh's 348 were the top scores of this match.
 Putting on the pressure early and with Captain Johnnie DeVito com ing through in the clutch, Meter B. jumped into tie for first place by taking three points from the hard luck Operating. The fast rumWayS were made to order for Johnnie and 1,}e right in the pocket.
 VERY MUCH IN THE RUNNING Production dOwned the strong Sales A for four points, but was this battle all the way. After a great uphill fight in which they were forced to come from behind, the Engineers took the first game by two pins and went on to win the next two games by comfortable margins and sweep the match. The Productionists have shown a great reversal of form and are now in the thick of the fray for the top rOOSt.
 Showing unexpected opposition. the Junior Varsity of the Sales De- partment, Sales B, split their match with the Dispatchers each taking two points. The unexpected strength was an undisguised marvel by the name of Shuts whose ability was unknown and has entered the league with the beginners average. Colonel Tippy Moriarty had to be at his best to outscore the youngsters, When the system catches up with Shuttzy, we think his average will he about 10c.

The alleys were in. wonderful shape as the Management, was pre- pairing for the U. s. Sweepstakes which were held Saturday and this condition was reflected in the scores that the Powermen rolled, for they were the best recorded during the season. .tt

The team averages were again calculated after last weeks matches, so if you: handicap is different this week, you will know the reason. These averages will hold good for the next four weeks only being changed, so, course, if there is a change in a teams nerG0nneL .

Write congressman

Feeling that deluge of letters
from residents of this area will have
more influence in securing an APP
preparation for the construction of
the Umatilla Dam than any other
method, civic bodies are urging
everyone to write or telegraph our
congressional delegation. The time
is ripe for these appropriations to
be made, the project has been en-
dorsed by the army engineers, there
is plenty of money available, and
the labor need is acute. Never was
there a better time, in the opinion
of those interested, to secure this
sanction. Citizens are requested to
write to:
Senators Louis Schwellenbach
and Homer T. Bone and Represent
alive Knute Hill, Washington, DC.

GRADE SCHOOL

This last week the Easter bunny
favored nearly every room with his
visits. On Monday the first grade
children experienced their last bit
Of Easter fun when they went to
the park to hunt for the eggs they
had colored the Friday before with
crayons and dyes. This outdoor
hunt is becoming a traditional spec
ial first-grade privilege, while the
other rooms celebrate indoors as
they choose.
The Holland Influence is still in
evidence in the building, especial
ly in the display cabinet in the
downstairs hall, where Mrs. Hem
enway's fourth grade are exhibit
ing their very colorful Dutch tiles
and articles fashioned from clay.
These will be sent to Prosser next
week for the. regular spring county
exhibit after which they will be re-
turned to the children to take home.
And here is a story Of Holland by
Betty Jane Black of the third grade,
which shows how thoroughly the
country was studied. ..-.....
The Low Land s5.z..
Holland Is very low land. They
have to have bikes to keep out the
raging sea. The Dutch have wind
mills to pump out the sea. The
Dutch are very, very clean. They
are so clean that they have curtains
in the barn. The favorite flower of
the Dutch is the tulip. They sell
the bulbs instead of the flowers, be-
cause the tulips do not last long.
The Dutch wear wooden shoes.
They make a lot of cheese. There
are fishing villages, too. There are
lot Of storks in Holland. The
storks build their nests by the Chin
ney. In school the children learn
different languages. Dog cars go
Gathering by. Their favorite color
is blue. Once each year a Kermis
comes to town. A Kermis is fair.
In the winter time they skate.
They skate to town and they skate
any place they want to go.

School is so very hard
It gives me pains
And so does report card
And what do you gain
BY studying so very hard
Except bad grades on your
Report card.
You have to get there by nine.
Or else stand in the dummy line
And say wish I had been on time
But our clock was SO very slow
And I felt so very low
felt like staying home
But you know how it is
When mother and father say
You may regret it now,
But you won't some day.
And then I have to be on my way.
