however, that the same disease

flood this season appears to bel
90 percent passed. There has
been too much of a run-off dur
ing the past IA days with the
river at minimum high, due to
cool weather commencing May
18th. which will make it impos-
sible for the Columbia River to
regain its punch in 1949. In
1948, 1 guessed there would be
high water in '48 based on a
late spring and later warm wea-
Their and much rain, though there
was not an unusual amount of
snow in the mountains, but with a
late spring it was bound to turn
warm and hasten the melting of
the normal snow fall then in
the mountains resulting in the
'48 flood. ~
was old enough to remember
the flood Of 1894, when the Column
bia got some five and half feet
higher than it did in '48. It Is
reported that the flood of 1888
was somewhat higher than that
Of '94, the flood of '33 seems to
be the earliest report OF floods
of the Columbia river. Perhaps
the Indians paid little attention
to any of the early floods as
their only inconvenience was to
move their camps to higher
ground.
In 1894 the weather turned ex-
tremely hot in May and all of
June and into July and the Snake
river rose at the same time as
did the Columbia. It may be
borne in mind that the Columbia
must have the help of the Snake
river to put on a really first
class show. It is figured that it
would take hundred and seven
teen rivers the size Of the Yak
ina river at flood stage to equal
the Columbia river at flood stage.
The late spring of '48, plus
much rain set the stage for the
'48 flood, even though the noun
tain SHOWS were no more than
normal, so it follows that weather,
not the amount of snow in the
mountains, governs floods in the
Columbia. This year, the stage was
all set for trouble, plenty of snow
in the low and high mountains,
but so far, the weather has in
tervened. During the past IA days
a tremendous amount Of water
has gone down the Columbia, and
| no doubt has broken its punch
for 40.
Assuming that 1t was as long
previous to 1888 when another
flood occurred as It. was from '33
to '94, total Of lis years In
the time Of the three floods, or
a probable average Of 81 years
between floods, figured on this
basis our chances OF escaping
| q flood In 40 were 81 to /.
The general conditions this sea-
son were none too reasurring
to those Of us who may have
flooded out, it all depended on
weather conditions and we are
accordingly grateful for the past
two weeks of cool weather and
feel that the Columbia has reached
| its crest for 1919.
He who can fortell weather
conditions may accurately pre-
dict Columbia river floods, or
their absence.

CLEVELAND, Aug. 25.-The

The ebullient manager Of the
New York Yankees is making no

I'VE got Mize mainly for insur-

He nodded his silver haired
head in the general direction of
st. Louis, where the Red Sox are
encamped:
Yep, those Red Sox are really

Stengel was philosophical.

said.

ROBINSON KEEPS LEAD IN BATTING
 IN NATL. LEAGUE

NEW YORK, Aug 23-IR- Jackie Robinson continues to show the way in the National Leagues individual batting race but the speedy Brooklyn Dodger second baseman's average is sinking.

DODGERS, CARDS SCRAMBLE TODAY
 IN HOT SERIES
By RALPH RIDDEN

A World Series atmosphere des- cended on Ebbets Field today with the St. Louis Cardinals in Flatbush to take on the Brooklyn Dodgers in a series that Branch Hickey claims will decide the National League pennant.
 Hickey, great white father of the flock, put the pressure on this series by predicting the winner will represent the senior circuit in the World Series.
 Stan Musial and Company, lead ing the Dodgers and the league by two games, will stick around for two days during which they clash with the Brooks three times.
 The proud Red Birds will display their talents twice today, once in the afternoon and again at night.
 The opener is playoff of the July 18th game which ended in q A tie. That game, by mutual agreement, was halted to allow both teams to entrain West.
 Brooklyn will take the field at tempting to snap a three game losing streak. The Dodgers dropped their third straight i'll Boston yes terday, 7-6, in the only game in either league.
 A couple of ex-Dodgers, Pete Reiser and Ed Stanky, ruined their former mates. Reiser drove home three runs on a triple and single while Stanky socked his first homer of the season for the Braves.
 Stanky unloaded in the ninth to tie the score at 6-6, A walk to EIcie Fletcher and Jeff Heath's two-out double off the centerfield wall followed to break up the game.

NURSERY MOTHERS
 ARE NOW NEEDED

The Cooperative Nursery has ten mothers each ready to give an al ternoon when 1t opens September 6. They are Mrs Stanley Baskin, Mrs. Arthur Adams. Mrs. John Geyer, Mrs. w. H. Burlington, jr., Mrs. Howard Simmons, Mrs. Austin D. Earl, Mrs. A. L. Robinson, Ms. William Elsner, Mrs. Eugene Net- son, and Mrs. Alexander Young. This means two mothers day which is not quite enough when there are l5 to 20 children to su- pervise.
 Are there not five more mothers in Juneau who would like to part.c- ipate in this project?
 When a mother considers that by serving one day her children may go to the nursery free for five days, that should be an incentive to call Mrs. Duncan Chalmers, Blue 251, and ask her to add your name to the list of cooperating mothers

 In a sudden and surprising move, the Yankees bought the 36-year- old first baseman from their Ma tional League neighbors for an un- disclosed sum and told him to get in uniform right away
 The deal exploded with such un- expectedness that Mize had to rush to catch a midnight train for De- troit, where the Yankees open a two-game series today.
