HERMISTON TEAM
WINS AT UMATILLA
Sunday in a get-together
quick game of base ball between
Hermiston and Umatilla on the
Umatilla diamond, the Hermis-
ton boys showed up wonderfully
well. In the fourth inning with
our boys in the lead by seven to
one the game suddenly came to
a halt due to an argument be­
tween some of the Umatilla
players. After the umpire, Mr.
Payne of Boardman, called
“play ball” several times Uma­
tilla forfeited the game by not
obeying the umpire’s request.
The Umatilla team manager,
Ben Spinning. said had the game
not ended when it did a miracle
would have had to happen for
his boys to catch up with our
boys.
We feel confident now that
support and backing is all our
team needs to make them win
every time.

Anyone contemplating a trip
to Washington points will find it
well worth their while to take
the ferry across the Columbia at
Umatilla.
Thru the courtesy of Lays’
Garage the following directions
are given to get on the Yellow­
stone trail, that at present far
surpasses the present road to
Portland.
Hermiston to Umatilla ferry,
7.5 miles. Ferry Columbia here
fee $1.50. Follow black and
white trail as follows:
Turn left at ferry landing and
cross railroad east side of Ply­
mouth station. Follow road up
hill. Hill is very sandy and it is
advisable to use chains. At top
of second hill go through gate by
farm house; follow main diagonal
road which turns along fence
west. Go through wire gate
and go straight north. Follow
main road until you come to
crossroads, left Prosser, middle
Benton City and right Kenne­
wick. Take Benton City road
which puts you on the Yellow­
stone trail at Kiona, 37.5 miles
from Hermiston. From here on
follow the marking of the trail
which is very distinct. Fine
eating place at Kiona, best grub
you’ll get anywhere.
From Benton City on it is a
good gravel road. The road to
here is good except for the hill
out of the Columbia valley,
which however can be negotiat­
ed and it is well worth the
trouble after making it.
According to all reports the
road to Portland via this route is
much better than via The Dalles
and is not any further.
The trip to Tacoma. 357 miles.
is easily made in 18 hours driv-
ing time.
