WASHINGTON, D. C, Juno 25
The liquor question hurled confusion
and dismay and vast uncertainty into
the food control bill In the Senate
today.
Just as the administration cham
pions, holdlpg the upper hand with
powerful Republican aupport, were
about to force the passage of the
measure, the Introduction of the bone
dry amendment in the House com
pletely upset everything. Tho "wots"
fuvoriug the bill heretofore, are now
hedging, while the "dry" advocates
have split on. the extent to which
prohibition should be inaugurated at
the present time. The danger of a
liquor contingent filibuster is ad
mitted. Mcunwhilo, Senator Chamberlain,
In charge of the food bill, declared
that tho Scunta would agree to tho

With general all around good sup
port, for two games that were in
terspersed with an undue amount of
wrangling, for which the Bend team
was largely responsible, Prlneville
kept Bend practically helpless. To
be perfertly frank, yesterday's game
was about as poor a specimen of
sportsmanship as Bend has ever put
up. In short, the visiting team's
manners were very unbecoming.
While Bend has a genuine panning

the scratch every minute, giving
great support behind Tetherow. The
shut-out was coming to Bend, be
cause Bend loafed on the job. De
spite the fact that Prlneville did get
away more fortunately with hits, the
Crook countyltes took advantage of
every opening tbat Bend gave to
make runs.

Bend had the faculty, in the morn
ing game, of hitting right into the
Prlneville, fielders' hands, and could
not get away with long drives. Two
of Bend's morning hits were of the
luckiest kind. Both are chalked up
in Stover's column.
Tetherow struck out 13 Bend
stickers in the first game and Clow
put away six Prlnevllle batters.
As for the afternoon s game, it
was almost a melee. Bend played
exceptionally poor ball. The game
was mixed up with far too much
wrangling. Merrill waa In the box
