MISS SINCLAIR WINS TENNIS TOURNAMENT Miss Lois Jean Sinclair won the first annual Women's Hood River County Handicap Tennis Tournament and the first leg on the Kresse Trophy Cup when she defeated Miss Lenore Cram in a hotly contested match in the finals last Thursday. Miss Sinclair, who re ceived 30 points each eame won the first set quite easily. Miss Cram, however, in the second sets, seeming to realize the terrific odds of having to win four points to Miss Sinclair's two to make game each time, settled down in real earnest and took the second set handily, winning it six to one. The strain proved too great to maintain in the third set and Miss Sinclair granu ally forged ahead and won the deciding set at b 3. This is the first women's tennis tournament ever held by Hood River and the number of entrants and quality of play were a distinct surprise in local tennis circles. Two players, Truman Loving, who won the men's county championship last week, and Miss Bar bara McDonald, who reached the semi finals in spite of the fact that she has only played tennis for three months and is but 12 years old. show the possi bilities of real championship stuff. Veteran tennis players declare that if given the proper training and oppor tunity they may be real factors in Pa cific coast championships in a few years. Among the woman who were close contenders for local honors this year were Vienna Hukari. Lenore Cram, Catherine Stewart, Helen Herthner, Alice McCurdy, Miss Samuelson and Barbara McDonald. They are all promising to give Miss Sinclair a hard fight to retain the Kresse Trophy Cup for another year when it comes up for play again next August. The hand some cup, donated by the Kresse Drug Company, is at present on display in their window. STATEMENTS ABOUT INN AROUSE IRE Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Anderson re turned Monday from a vacation trip to California, where thev visited C. H Hammons and family at Berkeley, and took in the various Doints of interest around San Francisco and Oakland. The trip was made in the new Stude- baker recenltv purchased or the cam eron Motor Co., and Mr. Anderson says no trouble was experienced on the trip, although some of the roads on the re turn trip were the worst he ever ex perienced. The down trip was by the Pacific Highway to Oakland. Being advised that the road along the coast from San trancisco was good, they made the return trip by way of the Redwood Hichwav to Eureka. The road was a Brood macadam to Eureka, but instead of mostly paving from there to Grants Pass, as they were told, the road for the next 240 miles was rough, rocky, steep, narrow and dancerous in manv Dlaces. I he scenerv was verv fine, said Mr. Anderson, "out we were too con cerned in making the narrow hairpin turns and keeping from going down over the bluff to enjoy it as we should. There were places where there was not room enough to stand on the road out' side of the running board of the car. with the bottom of the ravine 3,000 feet below. There were logs across the road in places, as well as rocks, and we had to crawl along at five miles an hour to ease over them as best we could. I would not go over that road again for $1,000." Mark A.Mayer. of Mosier. just back from Diamond Lake, declares it is the best nshwg place he has ever seen, Mr. Mayer landed a rainbow trout that weighed 11 rjounds and two ounces. Another biz rainbow, weigh ing exactly 12 pounds, was landed by J. K. Wilcox, of Mosier. It is certainly a fisherman s para dise," says Mr. Mayer. " I neverhad such good luck fishinir in my life. 1 caught several beautiful rainbows that weighed over six pounds." Mr. waver sent a number or me beaullul trout to friends in Portland. Mrs. F. A. Pruett Saturday exhibit ed a three-inch scorpion, captured the day before on the back porch of her home at Sonny. While scorpions are found by the hundreds on the Washing ton bank of the Columbia opposite The Dalles and numerous specimens are re ported annually on the Oregon bank to the immediate east of here, they are rarely found in this section. The Ore gon scorpion, while its stiner makes a painful wound, is not fatally poisonous The Mosier Fiehine Company closed the salmon season last week with very! successful catches. Big seines have been operated from a huge bar just north of the town. The seines were I hauled from the water with teams. The catch has averaged about a ton daily, the fish having been sold to down river canners. who paid 15 cents per pound.

Statements of W. S. Kirkpatrick, formerly president of the Portland Ad Club, who in an address to the club at its luncheon last week appealed that recognition be given JSnmer A. Kogers for his sacrifices at pioneering in es tablishing Cloud Cap Inn as a moun tain hostelry and that he be saved from an ultimatum recently issued by the United States Forest Service, aroueed resentment among local folk. W. A. Langille, pioneer of the community, whose mother was for many years hostess at the Inn, characterized Mr, Kirkpatrick's appeal as sentimental bunk. It was proposed to send a county and r Ii . . - a.1 commercial ciuu representative 10 ine meeting of the Ad Club vesterday when the inn problem will be further discussed. Mr. Langille will represent the county. The forestry service has notified the company operating Cloud Cap Inn that its permit will be revoked unices steps are taken to make considerable lm provements at the hostelry. Mr. Lan gille cays that Mr. Rogers, heading the present company, is in no way a pioneer in the development of the inn as a hosterly, and that improvements since he took charge or the property have been negligible. The charge is also made that Mr. Kirkpatrick is fi nancially interested In the company.

Manual, of Portland, waived examination and was held to the grand jury friday Dy justice or tne reace Onthank on a statutory charge. Man ual, accompanied by Deputy Sheriff Olinger. left Friday afternoon for Portland to raise S500 bail. Manual arrived at a local hotel Thursday night. Mating that his sis ter-in-law would arrive later, he was allotted a suite with a bathroom be tween the rooms. Later the woman, who proved to be Mrs. H. H. East, wife of a Portland physician and mem ber of the health commission of that city, arrived. Dr. Last stated that he learned after midnight that his wife had accom panied Manual here. He hurried to Hood River by automobile, arriving about daylight. On learning the situa tion he telephoned Sheriff Johnson's home. The sheriff was absent and his wife called Deputy Edick, who hurried over the eight-block distance between his home and the hotel. He arrived to find that East had broken into the suite and had attacked Manual. The latter had been floored by a blow in the right eye. Manual was arrested and taken to the city prison. Mrs. iiisst accompanied her husband to the office of District Attorney Baker, where the latter signed the felony complaint. Mrs. East admitted the guilt of herself and Manual. Mrs. bast later accompanied Dr. Last back to Portland. Manual, it was said, is an X-ray. ex pert, who occupies an office in the Morgan building in Portland, the build ing in which Dr. East has his office. Orvle-Thompson returned last week from the wilds to the west of Mount Hood with the season's largest buck reported in the district The animal had seven points to its antlers. A to tal of only four bucks have been killed here to date. The dry conditions of the forest make it hard to stalk the deer. Many of the friends of Merman Pregge and Geo. W. Baker enjoyed de licious venison steaks and roasts last week. The animal killed by them on Mount De fin ace was one of the fattest and tenderest ever seen here. Residents of Stevenson and Cascade Locks are pointing to a catch of Alaska sockeye salmon in the mid-Columbia the past week as a proof of the gen erally accepted impression that salmon always return after four years to the stream in which they were hatched. Four years ago the Bonneville State Fish Hatchery hatched several hun dred thousand of fingerlings of this soecies. Many of the fish were mark ed when they were released two years ago and fishermen were offered $1 a piece for all the marked fish they would return. William Butler has caught several of the marked sockeyes. the nsh,. which weigh about seven pounds, are swarming up Tanner creek and trying to get back to the point where they were spawned apparently.

The peak in the number of men em ployed was reached Friday when the records showed 651 at work. This number will be gradually increased within the next few weeks until it is anticipated that 800 men will be em ployed. Work on the huge project is moving along smoothly, and it is antic ipated that it will be completed on schedule time next March. Many of the men still suffer from poison oak rash. It is declared that the unpleasant rash is contracted as easily by standing in smoke from fires, when the oak brush heaps are burning, as from handling the green shrubs. Many of the men have gained relief from the internal antidote being pro vided by the M. K. S. Co., a recently organized Hood River medicine con cern. George Mackenzie, who is in charge of the office, is absent this week on a visit to out of town communities. CO.

Resident Game Warden Loughery, out patrolling Hood river on the upper middle river last week was watching with interest a huge lizard of the swift species, skedaddling out of his way. The swift with usual aUncrity of the species, went like a lightning flash for a pile of rocks about 20 feet away. And then, bless my soul, says Mr. Loughery, "if that lizard didn't turn around and come back just as fast to ward me. My first thought was that maybe it was locoed or had hydropho bia or something and was going to at tack me, but just before he reached me he went off obliquely and flashed out of sight in some bushes. And then I knew what had changed his mind. I heard a rattling and saw the flat head of the snake lifting itself in the rock heap. I had my gun and let go, blow ing off the rattler a head.' Mr. Loughery cut six rattlers from the reptile. A large rattlesnake was killed the same day by attendants at the trout hatchery on Dead Point creek. It is believed that the latter snake had come down to the trout troughs to I make a meal. The hot summer has made rattlers in this vicinity more lively than for many years, and old timers say that a record large number of the reptiles have been killed this season. GUN CLUB NEWS (L?y H. S. Dumbolton) ( An event of more than usual interest to local shooters and all others inter ested in guns and ammunition, took place at the grounds of the Gun Club last Wednesday afternoon, the occasion being an exhibition shoot given by Gus t'eret or the 1'eters Cartridize Co. Mr. Peret, besides being a trick and fancy shot of national reputation, is a big game hunter of note, and the author of several interesting articles on big game hunting jn Alaska. Some of the shots made by Mr. Peret show a skill and command over all kinds of modern sporting arms that is almost uncanny. For instance, such as lying on his back and breaking three clay pigeons thrown into the air at one time, behind him, or shooting pieces of canay out oi nis wife s finders with revolver, while looking in the opposite direction and sighting his weapon with the aid of a small hand mirror. He also shoots the heads off matches which she holds in her hanas and shoots pieces of blackboard crayon from between her teeth with a .22 calibre rifle. Not the least interesting part of the demonstration is the su preme confidence that Mrs. Peret has in her husband's ability to shoot straight and the uniform accuracy of tne ammunition he uses. At the conclusion of his regular pro1 gram Mr. Peret staged an impromptu match amongst the small boys present and had them breaking clay targets and eggs with a .22 rifle. This was greatly enjoyed by the trailer? and brought to light the fact that there are some mighty good shots coming along with the younger generation and that they should t.e encouraged and trained in this clean sport ty their parents and older shooters.
