continued to move along Fifth street
near the market.
Inspectors from the District
Health Department were looking
over foodstuf which escaped the
fire and were condemning some of
it, but permitting owners to take
that which passed inspection else
where. Mr.. Knudsen expressed the
opinion that market men would
try to dispose Of it to wholesalers.
Some of them were making ar
rangements to deliver in the next
few days on telephone orders and
were arranging with the telephone
company to maintain their phone
numbers on a temporary basis.
Water Still Drips.
On the first floor, which was COM
paratively undamaged because of
the reinforced ceiling which separ-
ated 1t from the burned-out bowling
alley, water was still dripping down.
There were no lights.
Most of the stalls were intact, but
some scales and showcases were
broken beyond repair.
MIR. Knudsen said that the south
wall OF the structure would have to
be taken down as quickly as posi-
BILE, because it is considered a men,
ace. He said most of the food In
the storehouse at the east end of,
the market was considered in good

that team had the game on ice, but
a case Of stalling in the last IS
seconds cost them q technical foul
which was converted by Bill
Green for the final tying point.
The Pasco defeat makes the other
win by the local boys. Pasco has
dropped both Of its league games,
one to Grandview Friday night at
Grandview, 40 to %, and this one
to Kennewick. The score of 20
seems to be Pasco's jinx, having
dropped both of its league games
by that score.
Kennewick appeared to be the
faster of the two teams on the
floor, but there was not much to
choose at that, except that Green
and Polling for KenneWfck manipu-
lated several stolen balls and fast
breaks that eventually figured in
the result. Bill Foxley of Pasco
also was in there for speed and
all in all these speed bursts by
both teams kept the fans in an up
roar.
The Kennewick "B" team, also
under the direction of Head Coach
Chuck McGuiness, put on the heat
in the preliminary game Friday in
taking Pasco's "B" team to a de-
cisive defeat of IS to II. "Doug"
Sloan of Kennewick had a perfect
groove to the basket and as a re-
suit dropped in Is points for Ken
newick which coupled to the tip
ms and loopers of the remaining
members, was amply sufficient to
insure another victory for these
boys.
The blackboard work Of Boldt,
Long and Gravenslund was in evil
dence throughout and enough
points were racked up in this man
ner to swell the score to a final
IS to II. Harold Perkins played a
fine floor game and practically all
of the boys who had suited up got
to see action before the end Of the
game.
