Annual School
Election Saturday

Richland-Voters residing in the
Richland school district are being
urged to turn out for the annual
school election Saturday, March 6
Election will be held in the grade
school from / to pm.
Two candidates, Ed Roberts, in
cumbent, and C.. A. Kinney, seek
election for the same: position, as
school director for three-year term.
In addition to the election of a
director the voters will at the same
time vote for or against a special
71a mill levy for special purposes
connected with the operation of the
school system.
The special millage has been in
force for some time but must be
resanctioned by the people before it
can continue to be effective. Loss of
this special millage would mean a
serious curtailment throughout the
entire school system consequently all
those: interested in the welfare of
the Richland school system are
making a special effort to get the
voters out Saturday and mark their
ballots in favor of the levy. A heavy
vote is particularly essential as the
law stipulates that at least 40 per-
cent of the vote cast at the last
governors election at this point is
required Saturday before the levy
election may be counted legal and
60 percent of the votes cast must
favor 1t before it will carry.

Sports News and Views
By Roy VoileS

Well, the basketball season for
1928 is gone but not forgotten and
Richland landed in a not-earned
fourth place. The reason say that
is because they deserve second. And
! only the Broncs' loss to River View
21-18 prevented them from taking it,.
With the passing of basketball we
see signs of some pretty interesting
games of softball and some pretty
good teams. This year, as usual,
girls are allowed to play. There has
to be at least four girls on each
team. In a round-robin each class
will play each other at least once.
Following are the teams and the

BERN, Dec. 30.-Tuesday's bonn
bardment of Rome was the heaviest
the city has experienced, according
to an account in Der Bund of Bern
today. The attack occurred in full
daylight and was totally unexpected.
so much so that the sirens were still
bowling when the first bombs fell.
The eastern and southern parts
of the city suffered most. The re-
Gently constructed workmens quar-
ter, La Garbatella, was seriously
damaged, as were the great market
halls near the Basilica of San Paolo
Fuorl Mura, the second largest
church in Rome. A great number
of bombs fell on Centocelle Airdrome
and nearby houses. The famous
aqueducts of Acqua Marcia and
Acqua Vergine, as we'll as the hills
OF the Pietralata and Tiburtino dis
tricts, were badly hit. The center
of Rome and Vatican City remained
untouched.
Pope Plus XII, accompanied by
Msgr. Montini, visited the ruins
Tuesday evening and gave the home
less crowds spiritual hope and ma
terial comfort in the shape of a
large sum of money to alleviate
their immediate sufferings. 1t is
learned that the commandant of
Rome, Gen. Malzer, accompanied by
Fascist officials, visited the devas-

Jap Envoy in Russia
Reported Recalled
BY the Associated Press.


Funao Miyakawa, first secretary
of the japanese Embassy in Russia
has been recalled the Berlin radio
said today in Toxic dispatch.
The brief announcement contained
no hint of any deterioration in re-
lations between the two countries,
which are at peace under a non
aggression pact. The reason for the
recall was not given.
Miyakawa was a specialist assigned
to represent japanese interests in a
long series of negotiations over in
cidents along the Siberian -Manchu-
rian border.
The Russians protested to him
when Soviet gunboat was sunk in a
clash with Japanese forces on the
Amur River in June, 1887. He pre-
sented the Japanese counterprotest
in Moscow.
The following March he protested
about activities of Russian troops in
Siberia. In September, 1898, he ne
gotiated with the Russian Foreign
Office after Far Eastern border
clash.
The German radio once before re-
ported his recall from Russia in Sep
tember, 1912.
The Berlin announcement today
said also that Kumso Nishimbra,
formerly a member of the Total War
Research Institute, had relieved Jo-
taro Kanda as adviser of the Japa-
nese Embassy in Vichy..
