VERNONIA EAGLE, VERNONIA, OREGON FRIDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1931. Timberline Editor ........... ..... Nelle Green Asst. Editor . ...... Bob Fox Senior Reporter Verla Messing Junior Reporter Edgar Crawford Sophomore Reporter Zonweiss Douglass Freihman Reporter Leona Hillman VERNONIA LOSES TO RAINIER Vernonia was defeated by the powerful Rainier eleven Satur day. The score was 21 to 6. Vernonia kicked off to Rain ier and after about three or four minutes of playing Rainier scored a touchdown. It seemed as if Vernonia’s eleven were asleep, as Rainier made two touchdowns in the first seven minutes. After the first quarter Verno nia began to wake up and out play Rainier the rest of the game. Vernonia’s touchdown came in the third quarter by a pc^- from Nanson to George. Vernonia had many bad breaks. When the half ended Vernonia lacked about four yards for a touchdown and when the game ended they were about two feet from the goal line. Rainier used power plays while Vernonia passed most of the A.N. time. MANY ATTEND GAME The following pupils attended the Vernonia-Rainier game at Rainier Saturday: Mildred Cason, Lewis Davis, Benji Wilkerson, Christine Rainey, Bertha Gray, May DeEtt Throop, Alice Parker, Edna Owens, Velda Mellinger, Kathryn Malmsten, Louise Rob erson, Helen Bergerson, Margaret Bennett, Elna Spertcer, Verla Messing, Mary Ann Childs, Zon weiss Douglass, Florence Wall, Ruth Page Simmons, Dorothy June Wolff, Margy Holtham, Hel- en Messing, Leona Hillman, Lee Engen, Jack Powers, Willard En- nis, Louise Whitsell, Mr. and Mrs. Wilkerson and Sara McGee. Many townspeople also attend ed the game. JUNIOR GIRLS HOLD WALKATHON Four high school girls went up to the Columbia County Fire Patrol lookout on St. Helens mountain Sunday in Cason’s transfer truck. It was rather cloudy and smoky so the girls did not see all the surrounding country as they ex pected. Vernonia and the Ore gon-American mill were barely distinguishable. The watchman had abandoned his place for the winter and the lookout was closed so the girls' did not have the use of the tele- icope. Hale Graves, a freshman in V. H.
