Charles Redmond, treasurer of
Eastern High Schools midyear
graduating class, earned his diploma
in two years, instead of the usual
three. Studying was far from be-
ing his only interest, however; he
played quarterback on the football
team, served as secretary Of the E
Club and was active IN the affairs
of the student council, in addition
to finding time to fish, ice skate,
play chess, watch boxing matches
and travel.
Another member of Eastern's class
of AT, Evelyn La Fontaine, has de-
veloped a hobby that pays OF in
cash as well as pleasure.
Making ceramics with my mother
takes up most of my time after
school," the Fastener quotes her
as saying, "but I am well repaid for
it by making from SIPS on small
glazed horses to SO on large candle
stick holders"
Evelyn and her mother became
interested in ceramics after read
ing magazine article on the sub
ject. They make flowers, lapel pins,
ashtrays and variety of other
ornamental pieces.

keeping any growth killed down until
time to seed the desired grass and
clover. # other grasses and weeds

Don't forget that the beautiful
bluegrass pastures or lawns were
not produced by magic overnight.
But don't get discouraged. A pretty
bluegrass lawn is possible If the
lime and plant food required by the
bluegrass Is added, and then the
seedlings nursed through their early
period of growth.

While I was home during the
Christmas vacation, my father, q
friend and I drove to San Antonio
Tex. When we got to our camp, we
loaded Our rifles and started through
the woods looking for deer.
We walked about two miles, but
couldn't find any deer, so we went
back to the cHmp. After supper
two other friends of my fathers
came to the camp in their jeep.
The next morning at o'clock, we
drove to some other woods. Again
failing to find any deer, we finally
drove back to the camp and had
breakfast.
After breakfast we shot at bottles
on the top of hill at the back OF
our camp. That was the nearest we
came to getting a deer,

Richland Youths
Crash Here

Four teen-age Richland youths
were involved last Thursday
evening in a near-tragic smashup,
when their car failed to negotiate
an oblique turn at the corner of
First Avenue and Fruitland St.
Apparently travelling at excessive
speed, the car ran out of control,
ripped across a lawn, carromed
off tree, and then burst into
flames.
All four youths have been
booked by local police on charges
of intoxication. Two will appear
before juvenile authorities, while
the cases Of the other youngsters
will be heard at police court in
the near future.
One of the youthful passengers
sustained broken foot; another
a broken nose and loss of blood.
A third boy ran from the scene
of the accident, and was found
by police about an hour later,
hiding in some bushes near a
residence on Kennewick Avenue,
three blocks away.
The youth told officers that
the boy, who ran from the scene
of the crash, had attempted pre-
viously to restrain the driver
from starting out with the car
again. The driver is reported to
have struck the objector several
times, insisting on continuing.

Family Dies In
Crash Near Here

Tragedy struck a death blow to
the holiday flight of young
Roseburg family, when Mr.. and
Mrs. Paul Lund and their two
small children crashed to Oblivion
near Ritzville on Sunday, August
3rd.. =
Investigators who examined the
wreckage of the two-seater PT-23,
which was not discovered until
last Saturday, stated that the
death dive had occurred when a
14-inch section of the planes pro-
peller had fallen off in mid-air.
The intense vibration resulting
apparently threw the small craft
out of control.
Officials at Vista Field were
the last to see the Lunds, who
touched down at the local airport
that afternoon to refuel their
plane. Since they took off from
Kennewick shortly after 2 pm,
the good tail wind which was
then with them should have
placed them in the Ritzville vici-
nifty some 35 minutes later, Vista
field spokesman reported.
The Lunds, with a 4 year old
son and a S year old daughter,
were enroute from Roseburg to
Shelby, Mont. Although early re-
ported overdue it was three weeks
before searchers discovered the
planes Wreckage.

proximately $4,000 a year with

yet been announced.
Legionaires of the Robert Ely
Post Number 80 were hosts last
Saturday at a breakfast in the
Arrow Grill to General Llewellyn
and his official party. .
The general was accompanied
to Kennewick by Colonel H. r.

carrots and other root crops so
that the skin isn't torn or broken.
Use the same brand oof tenderness
in cleaning off excess dirt. Don't
scrub. That will probably break
or tear the skin or covering. If
you can, wipe off the loose dirt
with a soft, damp cloth. If that
won't turn the trick, dip them
gently into water until the dirt
comes loose. But don't leave them
in the water long.
Root vegetables such as carrots
and beets should have the leafy
tops trimmed to within an inch
of the top of the carrot or beet
itself. This prevents moisture from
evaporating too rapidly through
the leaves.
Store the fruits and vegetables
in a cool damp place until you're
ready to take them to the fair.
The basement or cellar is a good
place. And if you're afraid either
is too dry, add some moisture
yourself. Just put a gunny sack
over your exhibits and sprinkle
it with water. .,-t...

present and the future.
In reply to numerous questions
about the status of reserve OFF,
GERS who enter the national guard,
General Llewellyn repeatedly ex-
planned that the reserve is the
national guard. The new national
guard, he emphasized is being es-
tablished by and from the re-
serve. @t 1853
Officers commissioned in the
national guard from the reserve
will, upon returning to the re-
serve, be given the highest rank
they have held either in the re-
serve or the national guard.
Recruiting and physical stand
!, ards for service in the national
guard are exactly the same, &C.
neral Llewellyn commented as
those of the regular army. All per-
sonnet will draw drill pay each
week equal to one days pay IN
grade.
In addition enlisted men anc
! officers will draw full pay anc
allowances for their Is day sum
mer encampment. Quarters for the
wives and families of enlisted mer
and officers are now being estab
lished at Fort Lewis, the Genera
announced, to permit them to &C

said, to remove the objection tina

Washington. *
Most people, Snyder says, know
the importance Of selecting vege-

color, shape and size should be
typical of the variety. Form, size,
uniformity, and color, are impor-
tant, of course. And each one &C
counts for from Is to 20 points on
the judging score card.
In any fruit or vegetable exhi-
bit, however, condition is usually
given the highest single score on
the card. For most exhibits, con-
dition counts 25 to 80 points.

o. K. Wilbur !!
II Was 1908

Life has been difficult. in the
KCR offices this week. A slight
breeze which passed through these
premises last Thursday has
reached gale proportions. Frankly
we've been trying to turn out the
sheet in surroundings which are
fast losing the appearance of a
newspaper office and taking on
all the aspects of a Wright Field
wind tunnel.
Reason? Somebody, wholly un-
informed and sticking his aero
nautical neck into the nearest
whirling propeller, went way out
on a wing and stated, in the
sacred paragraphs of the Side
walk Reporter, that Wilbur made
that blythe seat-of-the-jeans
flight at Kitty Hawk, N. c., in
1911. n." .,.-.- .*s
Since then, old-timers, some
who speak with the tone of an
authority who might have help
ed the Wright boys assemble
that first job, have been zoom-
ting through these premises on
everything from an out-modeled
| flying disc to the latest jet
propelled Batwing. Invariably
they barrell-loop over the near
est Remington, and write, in
smoke letters which have been
choking the boys in the back
room, cit weren't 1911. Then
They're off again, never stopping
long enough to gle us the right
date.
Shucks, anybody knows that.

STRASBOURG. France, (P) - Gen. Charles De Gaulle called on the French people today to organ ize themselves into what would amount to a political party sup porting him and his ideas. He said this would prevent dictatorship, anarchy or overthrow of "the in- dependence of the state"
 It was the former provisional presidents frankest bid for return to political power and came a day after he had declared that, should a new tyranny menace the world, "The United States and France will stand together in opposing it."
