of 69 to 7
The ha Oram.? country club golf
It-am took un anticipated drubbing
from th polished Walla Walla
players yesterday on the Washing-
.ton course during a swe It erinff day
that diminished some hat the
pleasures of th tourney. The
Walla Wnlla club has a large ag
, gregntion of strong1 glofera, men
who shoot a consistently good
game with veteran skill. They
"swung their stuff" yesterday to
make 69 point to a skinny seven
fur the local braasle-wlelders.
Many of the 27 I .a Grande golf
ers who played wnt to Walla Wal-
la on Saturday and played a pre-
' liminary round or so that after-
"inoon. They found the beautiful

shape and commented particularly
on the condition of their grean.

C. H. Reynolds showed some of
the golf of which he is capable

New Jump Rules No
His Style, Harold Osborn Holds
RI.AcK.411RG. Va. (AP) Har-
old Ostrorn. holder of the world's
record as a high Jumper, is not
worried about the new Jumping
rules whereby the bar is placed on
top of the standards instead of on
the pegs at the side.
Some sports followers contend
.the Changs will affect Osborn 's
prowess since, they say, his Jump
ing form causes htm to "tip" or
touch the tar as he gos over. This
Is denied by Osborn.
"For yera I have remained si
lent while sports writers discussed
my- form." the great athlete said.
"Cont roversy has raged as to
whether I Jumped or dived ovr the
bar; w hethsr 1 hold the bar on
the standards 'by a clever trick
or whether 1 actually clear It.
"In answer to this I invite any
one to witness any of the meets
in which I Jump or talk to any
fair-minded official before whom 1
!hav jumped.

shows that 1hey do r.ot find fault
with it.

What an Investment
Really Is
Someone' has defined an investment as the
careful loan of your money among one or more
business enterprises or individuals, with. or
without specific security, either at known or
unknown rates of interest return.
In that case, a Certificate of Deposit in a hank
is an investment loan your money to the hank
at A('c payable practically on demand. A public
utility bond is an investment loaning 'your
money .to a light and . power company, a 'tele
phone company at some stated rate of interest,
payable at some future time.
The important thing in making a loan in in
vesting your money is, therefore, to know how
quickly you can withdraw your money in an
emergency, how much interest it will earn, how
certain you can be that your money will not be
lost. .
Your banker is naturally in the ideal position
to tell you these things. If he hasn't the infor
mation you require, he can get it. His expe
rience and his judgment are invaluable to you
i-i making an investment decision. And he is
always glad to lie of service to you.
