EXPERT. One of the most popular
girls in the country these days is
Elizabeth Greig. Her phone rings
from morning to night, and her callers
are all men, many of them famous.
Reason: They are chronic fy-hsher-
men and she is Americas No. l
woman f1y-tyer.
Fly-tying, like fine needlepoint,
takes patience, skill and dexterity.
Elizabeth whips feather, fur, silk,
wool and tinsel around the shanks
of tiny hooks, creates perfect imita-
tions of the flies game fish feed on.
Her creations can be found on such
rivers as the Restigouche, the Hum
Der, the Miramichi and the Jeanette
all many miles from Anglers Roost,
her little workshop in New York.
Flies for trout or salmon can either
be wet or dry. The wet fly Stimulates
the drowned insect and is fished under
the surface. The dry one looks like
newly hatched fly, sits cooked up on
the surface of the stream. Elizabeth
does frst-class job on both.
POACHER. Born in Scotland, she
slipped easily into the fishing busl-
ness. Her father was poacher and
proud of it. During the war game
wardens on the Tweed were too busy
with other matters to keep chasing
him off the river. This nearly broke
the old mans heart. Recently. just to
keep him happy, the wardens rein
stated him in his lifetime role, now
chase him out regularly.
Elizabeth started tying flies in
Edinburgh for rs cents week, would
tie about l8 dozen week. When she
came to America, she had to learn a
few new tricks. But she caught on

Delegates Fly To

That's the slogan of Activians
who will come from all parts of
the nation to gather in Aberdeen

annual convention of Active In

But to offset the slightly un-

will fly in a chartered plane from
the Tin City Airport, landing en-
route at E1lensburg and Puyallup
for brief stops.
They'll be more than Active

as ambassadors of civic good will.

Delivery of New Pipe
Organ Is Anticipated

The pipe organ for the Kenne-
wick Methodist church which has
been under contract and construc-
ton by the Moller company OF
Hagerstown, Maryland, for the
past 81 months, is now en- route
and is expected to arrive during
the coming week.
Preparations for the installation
of the instrument have been COM
pleted for many months. Con-
struction was interrupted twice
by federal departments after war
time priorities and authority to
build had been received.
The console and huge grill
which will cover the organ cham
Der are constructed and finished
of oak and are in keeping with
the furnishings of the sanctuary.
The entire instrument and all of
its adjuncts were specially con-
structed for installation in the
Kennewick church, after careful
study by the organ architects and
engineers, according to the pastor
and local church trustees. It is
expected that installation will pro-
coed soon and that the organ will
be ready for use and dedication
by early autumn.

A good place to spend some
time on the afternoon of the

projects committee, where you and
the family can compete at the
bingo tables for nylons, soap,

Gates permitting their winners to
buy 6.00x16 new tires which will
definitely be on hand.
Festivities will get under way
at noon, and there'u be soft drinks
and ice cream for sale at the park.
Feature of the afternoon will be
two team double header soft
ball game between the Kennewick
All Stars and the Richland MPs.
Pointing out that having the
contending clubs finish one game,
and start straightaway on another
has certain obvious advantages,
Doyle notes that if you backed
the wrong team the first time
around, you sure ought to be right
on the second tilt.

Legion STATES
Hall Position

Robert Ely Post American
Legion's Building committee yes
terday issued the following state
ment following action of the city
council Tuesday night in denying
their bid for two lots owned by
the city:
"The Special Building commit
tee Of the American Legion which
had already made plans to build
a $35, 10000 building on the prop
erty and who had recently re-
ceived the architects drawings,
felt that the City Councils action
was extremely unfortunate since,
unless it is reversed at later
meeting, it will probably force
the Legion to construct their
building outside Of the city limits,
and the city will be deprived of a
building which would be a great
asset to the community. Il
"The committee pointed out that
the present facilities Of the Amer
lean Legion are grossly inadequate
and in view OF the rapidly mount
ing number of members and the
present lack Of space for public
meetings in Kennewick, it was
absolutely necessary for the Lee
gion to build. The proposed site
would be convenient to all Legion
members, and the proposed build
ing would transform one Of Ken
newick's most unsightly sections
into one Of the most beautiful
portions of the city.
"The committee members stated
that they were at a loss to under
stand the attitude Of the three
council members who voted
against the proposal, namely, r.
B. Holden, Arthur Campbell and
]. H. Cox. They pointed out that
although these council members
contend that the city was without
authority to deed the land to the
Legion for q small consideration,

a bar in these rooms under the
control Of the state liquor COM
mission. Such bars are legally OPP
Grated in the state Of Washington
as non-profit enterprises by bona
fide clubs.
In an adjoining column MEM
beers of the council have made
statements to the Courier-Re-
porter explaining their position in
the matter.
The lots in question are situated
on Benton street opposite the new
S. and j. building. They were
sold some time ago to Roger Rec
cord who returned them to the
city when the freeze order on
building materials made it impos-
sible for him tn. construct the
building he had planned. Under
veteran priorities the Legion feels
it would be able to build now.

Asks Reconsideration

After a lengthy discussion in
the Thursday noon meeting of
the Chamber of Commerce a
motion was passed unanimously
asking the city council to recon-
slider the action taken Tuesday
night.
The motion was not put to a
vote until after a clause had
been stricken from the motion
which would have put the
Chamber in the position of de-
handing that the council re-
verse its position. Chamber
members felt that they did not
have that right. rr
The motion carried a general
approval of the Legion's build
ing plans.
