poses Southern California. Since
California and oregon are at
present tied for the Pacific Coast
lead and are not destined to
meet, Southern California may
prove to be the yardstick In esti-
mating the merits of each, being
the strongest common opponent.
We look for California to solidify
Its claim at the expense of the
Trojans. Oregon will prove a
dissenting voice in an early de-
termination. by bolstering its
stock in downing st. Mary's.
Possible candidates for other

North Carolina, which should

whose unblemished record should
remain spotless after a skirmish
with Duke; and Clemson, which
tonight should continue unde-
feated In tripping Boston Col 4.

candidates would be amiss were
we to discount Nevada, as Coach
Joe Sheeketski's boys continue to
astound the football world with
their amazing offensive record.
Oklahoma City should prove un-
able to cope Nevada's power
house. The Southern Methodist
clash with Texas not only will
decide the winner of the South
west Conference, but also open
the door for subsequent Bowl
bids. We like Southern Methodist
in this one. Once-tied Penn State
should return to the victory road
by defeating Colgate.
Returning to the Far East,
Washington gets the nod over

Midwestern contests pit Indi-

Hoosiers' last bid for conference
recognition. We believe that
Bernie Bierman has mustered too
much power for our Bloomington

should continue undefeated in
outscoring Illinois. Iowa's potent
passing attack should prove the
undoing of Wisconsin. Stepping
outside the Conference, Purdue

Guard Aqainsi lnroads b. Termiies

noin has listed several reminders
for protection against termites
both in the construction and main
tenance of buildings in which wood
is used:
Remove all sumps, wood debris,
and other ce1Jlose material from
the building site before construc-
ton is begun. If termites are
found to be present in the soil,
apply chemicals to kill them.
Remove all form boards and
grade stakes.
Do not allow scraps of lumber
and other wood debris to become
buried in the backfill adjacent to
the foundation or in fill material
used under porches, terraces, o.
steps.
Place the building on a founda-
ton that is impervious to termites.
Avoid all contact between wood
work Of the building and soil OF
fill.
Provide sufficient clearance be-

Numerous requests. reaching
Washington State College on what
to do about termites prompted
Frank Webster, Benton County
Extension Agent, to point out that
control of termites is an ever
present, general problem to guard
against in Benton county as well
as in warmer parts of the nation.
For example, David Brannon.
WSC extension entomologist, said
that in the last year he has had
reports of suspected termite dam
age in these areas: Mount Vernon,
Walla Walla, Bremerton, Spokane,
Montesano; Woodland, Snoqualmie
Bow, Port Townsend, Seattle, Va
shon Island, Fort Orchard, Day.
ton and Pullman.
Best control method, the ento-
mologist explained, is to cut off
termites' contact with the ground.
When his is done, the termites
channe.g their way through the
wood timbers Of the building will
die for lack of moisture. Termites
still in the ground will have to be
killed by the use Of soil poison
such as sodium arsenite, coal-tar
creosote, or pentachlorophenol.
Damaged timbers of course, should
be replaced.
Too much emphasis cannot be
placed upon the fact that the best
time to provide protection against
termites is during the planning and
construction Of building" he said.
eff no wood is left in or on the
soil, the danger Of a large popu-
lation of termites developing in
the soil and later attempting to
infest the building is practically
eliminated"
He said that large numbers Of
winged termites emerging from
the soil or wood may be the first
sign of a termite colony. Termites
usually swarm In the spring. These
termites have brown or black bod
les and two pairs Of long, whitish,
Opaque wings, all Of equal size.
They can be distinguished from
winged ants by their solid middle,
with no waistline, and because
ants hind wings are smaller.
Discarded wings, often found
| on the floor beneath doors or win
dows, are another positive sign Of
a well established colony. Earth
like shelter tubes or tunnels found
running up concrete foundations
from the soil surface to wooden
timbers Of the house may also be
counted On as signs Of termites.
The tunnels protect the wingiess,
greyish worker termites, which
don't appear in sunlight.
Webster said that home owners
can obtain through his Office a
copy Of Farmers' Bulletin No. 1911
preventing Damage to Buildinngs
by Subterranean Termites" which
gives detailed instructions. Bran

give crawl space for making fu-
ture inspections.
Provide ventilation openings IN
the foundation, arranged to pre-
vent dead-air pockets and Of suf-
ficient size to assure frequent
changes of air.
Provide for thorough drainage
of the soil beneath the building.
Make thorough annual inspec-
tons for evidence of termite ac-
tivity, such as shelter tubes on
foundation surfaces.
