Top Prices

For long generation. hops
proved the main crop of the
valley. They were hops that COM
manded top prices in the u. S. and
In London. Every season the
Indians would come from far and
near to pick hops. camping right in
the fields or close by.
But speculation. spiders and
vagaries Of the brewing business
eventually put the hop growing
industry under cloud and the
Puyallup valley farmers looked for
something better.
They had observed that Mother
Nature found this country a nat
ural for berries; wild varieties
grew everywhere in profusion.
They experimental with this and
that until a long season Of rasp-
berries and blackberries was built
up with big canning markets and
a strong fresh fruit demand in
eastern cities. Under the late
w. H. Paulhamus. the shipping of
Puyallup red raspberries in re-
frigeration cars, and large scale
canning in the valley cities reached
. substantial peak in scientific
small farm agriculture.

ers incline to pray for the cloudy

Puyaliup valley has long been
noted for its berries. The first
pioneers met the challenge of a
new land by first starting garden
plots to supply themselves-just
their own households.
But as they settled down to the
arts of living, they found the land
too fertile TO be longer wasted.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Nov. 15.-Ohio
State moved into a second place tie
with Michigan in the Western Con-
ference football race today, but only
after coming from behind to subdue
a valiant and fighting Illinois
team, IL to 7.
A crowd OF 41,554 homecoming
fans, smallest of the campaign, sat
stunned as the underdog Indians
moved to a touchdown in the first
five minutes and then hung on to
the lead until midway through the
third period.
The inspired Illini took advan-
tage of short punt which went out
of bounds on Ohio's % to punch
home their touchdown.
Passing Proves Big Help.
Quarterback Dick Good passed to
End Paul Milosevich and Halfback
Don Griffin to reach the ten. Half
back Jimmy Smith plunged to the
one-foot line, and Good "sneaked"
it over. Guard Bob Wilson booted
the extra point, and Illinois was out
front.
The Bucks, completely bottled up
the first period and with their
ground attack crumpling against the
Illinois forward wall, used an Illinois
pass and one of their own to strike
late in the second period.
Illinois was on Ohio's IS, after
pounding from the 48, when Full
back Jack Graf snagged one of
Smiths aerials on the five and raced
back to the 27.
On the next play, Halfback Dick
Fisher passed to End Bob Shaw
catching the Illinois backfield fiat
footed. Shaw took the ball on the
Illinois IS and ran untouched to
score standing up on the 73-yard
advance
The Bucks didn't catch up, how
ever, as End Leon Schoenbaum's s
place kick was wide. Illinois stayed
out front 7-6 until late in the third
period when the Bucks drove from
their own 80 to score. The entire
distance was made on the ground
with Fisher and Graf doing the
plunging, until the Bucks reached
the 5.
There Tony Butkovich stole thu
ball from Fisher, and the Illin
backed against their own goal line
elected to run instead Of kicking

erward they had another score,
Charley Weiss passing II yards into
the end zone to same Pierce.
The next item was of the fluke
variety. Dartmouth had started a
promising offensive on its IS and
had reached the Cornell 81. Ray
Wolfe started to crash of his right
tackle and the ball squirted out of
his hands as he was hit.
Nabs Fumble, Scores.
Norman Christensen, towering
Cornell tackle, was cruising around
minding his own business when sud-
denly there was the ball right in the
air in front of him. He grabbed it
in seif-defense and stretched out
his long legs in numbering, tortu-
Gus gallop of 81 yards to the goal
That was all for the third period.
But the big Red had planted the
seed for another score in the fad
ing moments, advancing from its
Is to the Dartmouth IL. In the
second play of the final quarter
Martin passed 7 yards to Weiss in
the end zone, and the score was 80
to 13.
The slightly bewildered Indians
still had plenty of fight left, and
after taking the kickoff on their 80
they fairly flew down the field, con-
Meeting for pass after pass. A 27-
yard toss, Joe Arico to Frost. took
the ball to the 2, from where George
TroXell plunged over.

BY the Associated Press.
LAWRENCE, Kans., Nov. 15.-
Denzel Gibbens, a speedy substitute
halfback, led the underdog Kansas
Jawhawkers to a 20-to-16 victory
over Kansas State in Big Six Con-
ference football game here today
before 10,400 fans.
The 162-pound scatback streaked
83 yards with kickoff early in the
fourth quarter for one touchdown
and later carried Ralph Miller's pass
across for another as the Jayhawk-
ers won their first game from the
Wildcats since 1888
That final tally climaXed dra-
matte last period which both teams
had entered tied at all.
The period still was young when
K-State's Lee Jones crashed over
from the l-foot line after 27-yard
march. Earl Williams kick was
blocked.
On the following kickoff Gibbens
made his 83-yard dash to pay dirt
with Vandaveer's kick adding the
point. But the Jawhawkers failed
to keep the edge long.
Williams. whose place kick de-
feated South Carolina last week, en-
tered the game with the Wildcats
on the Kansas 4 and he booted q
field goal from sharp angle.

On Dartmouth's first scrimmage
