Can We Help?

To the teachers of the Hardin schools:
Wed like very much to hear from YOU on a sub
ject that we think this community might be able to do
something about.
We know that many of you are not too happy in
Hardin. The conditions that make life more or less
unpleasant for you prevail not Only here, but in almost
all other small towns as well-but we think maybe Har-
din could be the exception.
We believe, however, that suggestions from you
would be more constructive than any we could make.
Housing is bad for you've know that and we hope
that something about this housing situation can be
done soon.
We respect you as members of one of the most
important professions in our country today and we
don't believe that you are receiving the kind of con-
slderation that your educational background and vo,,r
Importance in our community deserves.
Please be assured that We shall keep your names
absolutely confidential if you want to blow off a little
steam. We also promise to give further attention in
this column to your suggestions.

"And the Merry-G o-Round Broke Town.

The breakdown of said piece of playground equip
ment isn't the saddest part Of it. 1t was never repaired
but that's not all!
We're talking about the grade school playground,
of course. and we hereby ask every civic minded Har-
din citizen and every parent of a grade school enid &c
drive around the grade school block. DO 1T before our
present mud is completely dried up II you can: ihe'
write or see the Board of Trustees of School District
17-H.
We think this matter Of the school playground
could easily be taken care of this summer, but if we
are going to get it done, this is the time for action.
Conditions on the playground have not been gooG
for the past EIGHT years. we know that for a fact, be-
cause that is the length of time we've been IN HARDIN.
One thing has been improved. Once upon a day, the
ideal material to cover the bare earth was apparently
thought to be cinders. Those are no longer IN evidence
for which we thank the powers that be.
Here is the sum total of equipment visible to the
naked eve: Eight swings with no boards in any OF
them, some with the chains knotted SO as to be almost
out of reach of small children, and 'each with a small
lake directly below it; one post and top for a merry-go-
round; one gadget on a steel pole that we presume is
for the purpose of prachcing basketball shooting,
though we're not quite sure since we could see no balls
in use; some low bars made of steel pipe; a great deal
of bare ground, with a s%prinking Of gravel.
There may be more somewhere. We only know
it is not on view to the public and not available for use
by the children. We also know that there isn't enough
gravel on the Second street side of the building and
that water stands there in pools. There was still some
there this Wednesday.
AS for the Third street side, seen by every pass
ing motorist, well it's just a chopped up, ankle deep
mess of mud.
About the only reason we have ever heard given
for the deplorable condition at the grade schoolground>
is that Hardin kids are such rough-necks. You
couldn't keep a lawn in front, and they'd break down
any good equipment"
We don't believe it. How about it kids Wouldn't
you stay off the grass until a new lawn was established!
Would you give new and better equipment the right
kind of treatment! And would you see to it that any
boy or girl who didn't take pride in his school was
given a cold shoulder? We think you would. Let us
know about it.

The flea is so tiny that hun
dred5 of them could be placed
on a quarter at one time. Yet
they can jump three or four
feet in a single leap.
A man, if given the same
strength in proportion to his
size, could jump six miles!
The flea can lift one hundred
and forty times it's own weight.
This means that a man, in pro-
portion, could easily life a 10
ton truck.
The average life a flea is
only six months, yet it can be
taught to do all kinds of com :
plicated tricks. Some have been
taught to juggle, pull tiny wa
CONS, dance, or even kick d
tiny ball.

Wolves Afraid of Jeep

jeep off the road and pursued
the wolves. They turned and
fled ,whereupon farmer Dzha-
farov rounded up the horses
and drove them home ahead Of

Teen-Age Ball
LEAGUE Planned

New city recreational director
John Scott and assistant George
Karamtic announced Monday the
prospective formation of teen
age boys hard ball league, as the
first step in Kennewick's summer
playground program. .karamatic
stated that three or four games
will be played each week, 1t suf-
ficient number of teams can be
organized. Four teen-age squads
are expected, two already definite
ly exist.
Karamatic emphasized the point
that the success of the program
depends upon the cooperation OF
the youth in this area, stating that
the only. qualification for MEM
bership in any of the leagues
teams is that the player must be
at least Is years old at the OPEN
ing of the, schedule, and that he
shall not have reached his 18th
birthday before the league pro-
gram closes later in the summer.
Casey Jones, also assisting Scott
this summer, plans the formation
of softball league for younger
boys between the ages of 10 and IL
with games to be held at the city
park. -,
Scott mentioned that tennis will
receive some consideration this
season, although rfothing definite
has been scheduled in respect to
this particular sport.

ture this week were on land and
water. The first was the thrill
ing defeat of veteran golfer Sam
Snead on the final green in the
National open at st. Louis by Q
rank outsider. Smiling Sammy,
winner of last years British Open,
has had some close ones before
and everybody remembers how he
blew the open title back in 1899
when he took an eight on the final
hole. Western representatives Ted
Niest of Walla Walla and Harold
West of Portland were far behind
the field.
Second big event was a Western
triumph, however. Both Univer-
sity of Washington crews swept to
clean victories in shell races with
Wisconsin. The Huskies will 60
into the big race at Ploughkeepsie
on Saturday as heavy favorites.
In addition to the varsity and
the Jayvees, the highly touted
FrOSh oarsmen will also be in the
meet. So popular is the Frosh
crew that it has already been pick
ed as the world champion squad
in the coming Olympic games.
Which brings me back to an idea
! have kicked around q little be-
fore. That is: Why not start some
high school shell racing here?
Maybe the present condition Of the
river is not quite right for shell
racing but it should be ideal when
the McNary Dam pool is formed
Washington is recognized as the
top competitor in the sport. But
we still don't have any prep train
ing.
Speaking of starting something,
I have another idea will furnish
without any strings to any organ
ization in town. It could well be
handled by Kiwanis, Active, VIEW
or Legion. One of these days in
the not too distant future Kenne-
wick is going to find itself on the
shores of q fine lake-the same
one mentioned above. Some club
could be doing IA service for Ken
neWick and surrounding commun-
tiles by starting now to plan
kids camp. You, and you and you
remember with keen pleasure the
miraculous times you had on those
rare occasions when you had an
opportunity to 60 to a summer
camp-no parents in your hair,
lots of swimming and boating,
fresh air and sunshine. Maybe you
even roasted potatoes in the hot
ashes Of the campfire. Boy!
There will be plenty of recrea-
tional possibilities on the lake
shore to come. There will be fish
ing, speed-boating, sail-boating-
lazy, sunny daysNfor kids Of all
ages. But well established camp
with proper supervision can mean
q lot to the community as well as
to the kids. Speak up, somebody,
now is the time to start planning.
Many other communities have
figured out various ways to pro-
vide special recreational facilities
for kids. Seattle has stocked
Green lake with fish for the ex-
clisive use Of the junior set. Other
communities have constructed fish
ponds, ball fields, special play
areas and. camping grounds. Ken
neWick can do as well.
The American Legion fastball
team is so intent on making a
sure fire bid for top honors in
the second round of play that
they are advertising for players.

County Agents
Column
BY DAVID JAMES

This past week All Club boys
and girls of Benton county were at
the District Club camp held at
Hidden Valley on the Tucannon
river. The boys and girls enpoyed
the camp very much judging from
their reports on it, and undoubt-
eddy next year Benton county will
have a larger representation than
this year. The time at camp was
taken up with instruction in safe
ty, insects, crafts, nature study,
hikes and games. Miss Jean Lamp
son was Benton county's represen-
tative on the camp council which
assisted in administering the pro-
gram of the camp.
This week five representatives
from the All Club of Benton
county are attending the State
camp at Pullman. Miss Loretta
Cowden, Home Demonstration
Agent, and David S. James, coun-
ty agent, accompanied the group
to this camp. The theme of the
camp is Leadership Training"
We will have more complete re-
port on this next week.
I have been notified by Mayor
Pratt that the Grape Festival will
be held Sept. 81 to %. It is hoped
that every effort will be put forth
by everyone to make this a good
celebration. The agricultural part
of the celebration viii be one of
the most stressed part Of the ceie-
bration. / have been made chair
man of the Agricultural committee
and in the very near future all
Alters and All club leaders will
be advised as to the part that they
will partake in the fair. Many OF
the club leaders will be appointed
on the Agricultural committee. II
is hoped that the general theme
of the fair will be to show what
can be produced in the area and
what can be accomplished when
the Columbia Basin is developed
This fair will be very good source
to show many people what can be
done regarding the production OF
agricultural products in our area
For the past week several or
chards in the county have been
sprayed by airplane for the con-
troll of slugs. Slugs have caused
considerable damage and the pres
ent brood has nearly completed
its cycle. The slugs not killed
will not drop to the ground where
they will pupate and second gen.
Grafton will appear some time in
August.
In this area, very good prac-
tice to use in growing cherries is
to apply q dormant spray late In
