PORTLAND. Ore. Acting Ad-
ministrator Frank A. Banks pre-
dicted today that within six months
the Bonneville administre ton will
have negotiated power contracts

ton of the projects present ca
pacity.
Banks, just back from Washing

mission and the national power
policy board, said he told them the
market for power In the Pacific
northwest Is growing rapidly

two transmission units In 1910. and
realize revenue for the Columbia
river project which already has
cost se2. 900, 900.
Banks said II seemed rea-
sonable To expect that IN.
dam win find n market for the
third and fourth units before
the fifth and sixth are finished.
This includes provisions under
the Bonneville act 20 reserve
at least 80 per cent Of BonDe-
yili@'s capacity for public
power.
Banks told Washington officials

Vile 10 Vancouver. Wash. and from
there 10 Eugene, Ore. viii be done
In November. He said the first
line TO Grand Coulee and 10 Ray

CINCINNATI, July 27.-More and more pennant-minded as the sea- son progresses, the Cincinnati Reds High Command have gone to the movies" to detect what apparently has been Johnny Wander Meer's major pitching weakness. And they think they've found it.
 Non-plussed by ,ne young fire ballers too-frequent hairs'breath failure to get the ball over the plate, Manager Bill McKechnie and Coach Hank Gowdy set up a movie camera along the first-base line to record Vandy's port-side delivery.
 Yards of film were used. Devel- oped, they showed that the pitcher let go of the ball at moment when his swing was at it's greatest arc-in other words, too far out of line with the plate.
 "He should let loose of the ball more in front" explained Mo- Kechnie.
 The young Dutchman was amen able and since has spent hours al- most behind closed doors under the tutelage of Coach Jimmy Will son.
 The Reds, who will need the best that Johnny can offer if they are to hit the September jackpot, be- lieve he will come through. Their faith is the more certain because even in games he has lost, he has

Islanders Rap 5n1ifh for4-1
 Win Over paps
0rme's s Circuit CIout Spoils Shutout Victory for
 Jensen

Short-patcher Red Gray started the tide rolling toward Douglas shores last evening at Firemen's Park when he opened the Islanders attack on the Moose with sharp single which steal and two flies turned into an Island marker before the fans had settled into their seats.
 Then, with Mark Jensen heaving up pitches with a large share of stuff on them, the Islanders held the Pap cannoneers well in check while they got to Lefty Smith for two more counts in the third and a final run in the fourth to salt down the contest.
 The Moose blew their big chance to go into the lead when they got their signals crossed on squeeze play with the bases damned and none out in the second frame. A double killing cleared the decks for the Islanders and stopped the Moose very cold until Jimmy Orme smashed four -baser over the cen- ter field boards in the fourth chukker.
 Pack Poison
 Orme and Fritz Schmitz packed about all the poison that the Paps carried for Jensen, each connecting twice Orme followed up his wreck ing of Jensen's shutout with one of the longest clouts of the season, sixth inning drive that bounded off the deep left-center fence for two bases.
 Four singles in a row put the game away for Douglas in the third ses- sion, accounting for two and almost three runs. Roller was nipped at the plate on try at double steal to let Smith off without more dam age
 Too late in the game the Moose trotted out hurler who could hold the Islanders Coast Guarder So- gaard mixed up fast ball with submarine hook to let the Red Clads down with two scattered sin gles in the final three frames.
