the scramble for the champion
ship among this year's three-year-old
thoroughbreds, instead
of affixing llo "triple clown"
upon the head of one.
, Because of the goutiness or
lacing luck, neither the winner of
Ihe Derby (Hoop, Jr.) nor the
winner of the Preakness (Poly
nesian) can win the third end
of the "triple" triangle: The
Belmont Slakes.
. For ihe first lime since 10311,
the Bi Iniont classic must be won
by a hoi so thai look neither of
the other fixtures. Remember
ill "MS, Lawrin won the Kentucky
Derby; Dauber came first in the
I'lcukness. and Pasteurized was
victor in the Belmont Stakes.
This year, Hoop Jr. won the
Derby, and Polynesian the Preak
ness. Hut Hoop Jr. has been
withdrawn from the Belmont be
cause of a leg injury suffered in
the Preakness; and Polynesian
is not eligible for the Belmont.
It's an ill wind that blows some
horse no good. As a result of
Hoop Jr.'s injury and Polyne

Whitney's Jeep will go to the
Hi liiinnt post ii heavy favorite.
.Jeep has won three slake races
in four stalls.
At least two other prominent

By GENE FRIEDMAN
United Press Staff Correspondent
ARCADIA, Cal., June 22 (UP)
A lively lady moves into some
high class competition tomorrow

and the biggest step so far in
her bid to become the champion
thrcc-yiar-old thoroughbred of
Ihe year. t
The lady is movie magnate
Louis B. Mayer's fast - stepping
filly, Bushcr, famous daughter of
a famous father War Admiral.
Busher has won three races at
Santa Anita in three starts, two
of them $25,000 handicaps, and
the last one the San Vicente
handicap against top competi
tion. Saturday she races in the color
ful $50,000 Santa Anita Derby,
hoping to become the second filly
to win that event. - The other coy
champion was Cicncm in 1930.
A victory in the race would
bring the chestnut filly's earn
ings for the season over $100,000
more than taking care of the
$50,000 it cost Mayer to purchase
the colt from Col. E. R. Bradley
Inst year.
Bushcr won herself top filly

FROM - A' HUMBLE BEGINNING..
MaNY TINE PRODUCTS, like .many fine men,
begarvjheir careers in humble surroundings.
- mnoty cars ago, in a log cabin plant in Walla
Walla,'Wasliington, a line product was born. Those were
the days before modern brewmcisters, modern brewing
methods, modern packaging. But even then in 1855
quality counted most . . . quality, in a product of tem
perance. The Saga of the Walla Walla Valley, the history of
our great Pacific Northwest,- the richness of land and
resources, the courage, skills and character of people all
these leave a heritage to us who come from a humble
beginning.
We, now known ns Pioneer Brewing Company, began
but two years after the "Territory of Washington" was
organized by an act of Congress and signed by President
Millard Fillmore.
In the two years which preceded us, Major Isaac
Stevens, Governor of Washington Territory and Superin
tendent of its Indian Affairs, organized the expedition
which explored the route for a railroad from the Missis
sippi to the Pacific Ocean across the northern part of the
continent. The building of the Northern Pacific Railway
followed, in the main, the lines of this survey.
In 185f, one year before our beginning, Governor
Stevens estimated the total number of Indians in Washing
ton Territory as 21,712 and the number of white persons
as :t,905.
' . il
From May 28 to June 16, 1855, five thousand Indians
2500 Net Pcrccs and 2500 other Indians' of the Yakims,
Walla Walla, Cayusc and Umatilla tribes assembled on
the present site of the city of Walla Walla in council with
Washington's dynamic territorial Governor. From this,
and similar councils held by Governor Stevens throughout
the territory, came assurance of peace and understanding
with our Indian neighbors.
But just a few months later, while Governor Stevens
was negotiating a treaty with the great Blackfoot Con
federacy, an exhausted messenger brought the terrifying
news that the Cayuscs, Yakimas, Walla Wallas, Umatillas,
Palouscs and all the Oregon bands down to The Dalles,
had broken out in open war.
How Governor Stevens returned, surprising the Cocur
d'Alcncs and Spokancs before they had time to kill him
how he held a visit of friendship with the Ncz Pcrces
how these troublous conditions were righted so that men
of good will could work and till the soil and care for their
loved ones in safety we shall relate from time to time.
For it shall be our purpose to remind us all again of
the courage and character of men who founded this great
section of America.
H , tike other pioneer business people oj this area,
are determined that our business principles and practices
shall be in keeping u ith our heritage of tin past and thai
the quality of our product shall never be surpassed.
