Hedley, which showed much im-, movement under the coaching of Ralph Thomas, just as the work of his mate, Bill Lucas, was responsible for Jura's showing, took fourth "place. The standing of the schools was as follows: Princeton 77, Jura 48, Keremeos 47, Hedley 33, Copper Mt. 30. Blakeburn 14. Allenby 10, Cawston 7, Olalla 3, East Princeton 0. INDIVIDUAL CHAMPIONS To win the much coveted senior L medal, Ken Garrison,-eldest of a trio cf brothers competing in the meet, l_ok first in the high jump, broad jump, hop, skip and jump, and second in the 100 yards—after beating the Uit'mate winner in his heat—and ultimate winner in his heat. His points total was 18, eight ahead of Long, Jura, and Parsons, Keremeos, who each, had ten. Young (Neil of Hedley, duplicating the ski., of his elder brother in the jumps and pole vault, won the junior medal with 15 points. Cora Long of _ura had the distinction of winning the honors in both Junior and senior >?irls classes, and, Incidentally, gaining. nr>1t individual points in the -Mil .".20: Her performance - -quita .--Shadowed that of Lillian Mitchell, Princeton hope and last year's Senior champion, and merited the award of a special prize by the committee. In each of her victories she broke a record. NEW, RECORDS i In spite of the heavy going and the general absence of the "hefty"1 type of athlete, nine records were broken and one tied in the 30 events. Six new records were set by the girts. Senior boys: 100 yards, Parsons, Keremeos, 11 3-5 sec; broad jump, Garrison Princeton, 17 ft. 1% in.; pole vault, Neil, Hedley, 8 ft. 3 in. Junior boys, 220 yards, Carter, Allenby, 33 2-5 sec.

INTEREST IN RELAYS Princeton owes its much coveted victory In the senior relay to a somewhat aggravating circumstance. In passing Campbell W. Garrison, brought Into the Prineeton team at iht last moment collided with him, and the baton fell from his hand. The Judges, however, waived Keremeos' appeal for a foul. It was a thrilling race. Hedley and Copper Mountain withdrew, leaving Princeton and Keremeos to fight It out, Keremeos snatched .off tt few yards lead, but Vaydo reduced It silgh ly, and'> W. Garrison caught Up cens'derably, and made a big gain after the accident, Campbell, how- fiv-i'i made a game effort and substantially reduced the leeway, only to have K, Garrison increase it Slightly on the final lap.

Swanson of Hedley had the misfortune to have his new Ford badly damage Saturday evening while returning from Princeton. On the twisting section of the road opposite the golf course he was rammed by a powerful Studebaker, "carrying two passengers, and hitting a fast clip en route up the valley. The latter continued en their way without stopping to ascertain what damage or Injury had been done to the Ford or Its occupant. This is the fourth wieck which has occurred near this turn, the last two being of recent date. Until Bill MoKenzie's road makers get to it autolsts are advised to take this section with caution otherwise there is danger of serious recurrences. gj^f: GUARD AGAINST FIRE - The dry season is on, and the fire menace promises to be more dangerous than ever. The rainfall throughout British Columbia this year was sixteen inches below average, and the number of fires reported'to date compares very badly with last year, though damage has not been great. Probably this ls due to the awakening of a "forest consciousness'' ln the British Columbia public. The heritage of British. Columbia in forest industries is $94,000,000 per annum, Safety from fire means all the difference between profit and loss. The various educational societies —notably the B.C. branch of the Canadian Forestry Association and the Provincial Government Lands Department, are again campaigning against forest loss by fire. It is a serious economic problem, and a vital matter to each and every British Columbia citizen, irrespective of their direct dependence on the lumber ihdustry. THE WEATHER Max.

Guest, well known placer financier, has resumed operations on ids" holdings down the Tulameen River a mile and a half from the mouth of Granite Creek. A force or men began work this week establishing at camp, lumber and supplies being hauled from Princeton. It is stated that Mr. Guest plans to operate extensively this summer, and camp preparations indicate this. Besides his several other properties, he- has taken a working lease on the Tulameen Placer Company's properties. Mr. Guest is expected In about June 11. * * * • SILVER CUP SHIPS The Silver Cup mine, near Hazel- ton, in which W. B. Dornberg is the chief promoter, is now in the producing stage and shipping concentrates steadily. Mr. Dornberg, who is presi; dent of the Silver Cup Mining Co., left recently for the property, accompanied by several Washington men who are Interested. Mr. Dornberg has re-commenced work on his holdings on the Hope summit, beyond Tulameen, and it is suggested that his next move may be the development of this ■ property. * • * * AMBULANCE WORK PROGRESSES First aid work is progressing favorably in the Similkameen. Teams are now pretty well lined up for July and intensive training is the order. Allenby and Copper Mountain are taking to the work enthusiastically, and- good rpeorts come from Blakeburn. Three more cups were donated this week. * • * • REPORTS ON MINE Thomas Spruston, who was formerly superintendent for the Canadian Collieries (D) Ltd. at Ladysmith, and was later, at Lantzyille, V.I., was here this week making a report on the Tulameen Valley Coal mine.

Biggs, district inspector of mines, who is malting one of his monthly inspections, James Dixon of Victoria, chief inspector ol mines, is _T_r__ce"ton,; in" the course of an annual tour of the mining districts of the province. Mr. Dixon expressed himself as favorably impressed with the general condition of local mines, and especially with new developments. 9 * * * RESUME AT KAABA » - Pumping has been resumed at the Kaaba mine preliminary to recommencing operations after a short shutdown. The mine, which is being developed by Vancouver men, is Just across the U.S. boundary near Night- hawk. * * * * M,R. FLOYD HERE ' Edward Floyd, field manager for the Ashington Coal Company, which is about to open operations here, is in town today from Vancouver, making preparations for the commencement of work. The Ashington Coal Company has taken the office building formerly used by the Lynden Coal Co., the property of Princeton Properties Ltd, Though operations will be- com menced at once, they will be more or less exploratory, and no men will bee needed for some time. The men will start cleaning tjhe old tunnel across the Tulameen next week. * * * * STINES TO OPERATE Any doubts as to the abandonment by the Stines interests of their plans for the operation of Tulameen placer properties were put at rest this week, when, following a resumption of exploration work on the properties, applications were filed for the diversion and use of water from creeks tributary to the Tulameen for pOwer purposes, obviously Intended tor placer operations. Mr. Dave Jennings, who has been In charge ot early operations this summer,.wag a visitor to tgwn Tuesday, and while he declined, to give out much information, stated that a big season's work on an extensive scale was planned. According to the water applications, diversions will be made on Granite Creek at a point about seven miles from its mouth; Eagle Creek at a point about a mile above the mouth; and Champion Creek, -five miles from the mouth. Mr, Stines is expected at the property in about a fortnight's time. Last year extensive exploration and research work was done. Uflity at Home An Editorial The ^failure of Princei/n—manifested in many ways—to e. nsolidate its abilities, energies, and again caine to 1 _!rt in an factorySmanner this week. The: Star was asked tr. last week that Friday bein of thejfschool mc plaees-^cS-businer FridaVplft'ernoon usual hilt holiday that pjftj8>etltfonc othibH it G: qualities unsatis- announee ; the day )per Mt. owulrt be closed >Pen Th We .-•( i had.". •"sday, the ;-e assured en all. the int v. ;ud _ the pagO-TThurid?y i had lentpyed his usual iNow<rfhat mere in his1 JjHevanc: JBut a Hihs '■ of Kwhiih ____Sro*> re brought for saying .iosed with- : "_aew noth- ■j.til he saw ■■'; after he : { holiday. quite right were much i.ae time we i rtunate cir- _ here, actively the $_!-Princeton need no apolo- [ey have spirit, and they have ."faith, hope, and charity." But when _! comes to getting an opinion in a hijrry; or making a quicq decision on'behalf of the body of citizens —or any section of them—well, it just can't be done. There's no mech- anlsmj Jpr the purpose. * Noy^tj. u'U accuse us of dragging In th]_S§orpse of incorporation again. Well; We're not. What we're advocating is simply what has been proven tojbe indispensable to the mer- chantsv'j)f any town—an organization of soing sort that can ascertain the feeling* of its merchants, and can give a. fauthorized decision for them. And. 14P, extending it farther, an association of tbe citizens—arrange it as you will—that provides the tna- chinerjisfdr the same business con- cerningi.tho town at large. Too jmany times has* the glaring need for such bodies been evident; and frankly, people become tired of being jftade the goat. Rather than do so, Jhoy will refrain from helping out at all. That is just the position we finBj ourselves In here. Strictly speaking, if a merchant wants to advertise his business hours, it's adver- tisingi-|fipthing else but. But it's an a&cfafo''dation for -the" ;cttizens„-toJ know* just when the stores will be open, an^in addition, It's a-help to the merchants, who certainly merit all the help we can give them, by their patronge of the Star. But it's advertising, and it's suite unfair to ask us—we were first told about this Thursday ihorning—to make a whip- round of the sixty odd businesses our directory tells us there are in Princeton to find out whether they intend to close or not. And unless we do— personally—we run the risk of offending any of .these. And, we repeat, they have a real right to be offended unless they have been consulted. The consequence is that we reluctantly have to say that ln future merchants who want to advise the public of closing hours will have to do it in the form of advertising, unless they can give us some satisfaction that we will be giving no offense. APPLIE8 ALL ROUND But the issue's more than that. We're not very serious over our private complaint. The worst of it is that it exposes a situation of which we should be anything but proud. To the outside world it looks as if we just can't pull together well enough to have a retail merchants association, which most towns half our size have. Of course we here know that it's only lethargy that has kept this organization from becoming established. At the same time it's time we woke up. We—the merchants principally, because they are the natural leaders— are shouting for outside recognition. How can outside interests put their shoulder to the wheel when there's just a bunch of spokes and no hub? Princeton should have a merchants association and a citizens association, Call them what you want, but let ua have them. Even lt you are to thrust these duties oit the already much-overworked board of trade, that will be better than nothing. We must have some sort of machinery tor getting united action. That doty n't necessarily mean incorporation, If you can find a better substi- lute, let's hop to lt. To revert to Friday's situation. Li'gaily cf course it was all wrong to close up Friday and open Thurs< day, but We're not concerned so inueH, about that. It's the spirit of ths law, not the letter. But it was decidedly unfair to the merchants themselves (Continued on page six). CAR GOFS OVER BANK ON HEDLEY ROAD Whin the Ford coups in which they wore starting out ter Soap Lake, Wash., went over the bank at a point on the Hedley road about seven miles out of Princeton this morning, J. B, Boone and Mrs. Boone narrowly escaped serious Injury. It appears that Mr. Boone, who was driving, turned momentarily, and in that short spare ;.he car was irretrievably over the bank. The place is beyond the Five Mile Creek bridge, where the road skirts the river. Although the car, a 1927 model, made a complete turn and a half, very little damage was done, saving aj few dented fenders, The steering wheel .came off hi the driver's grasp. The car will be brought up by Burr Motors, and should soon be. on the road again. Neither Occupant, is much the worse, except for shako-un. Mr. Boons received a slight back injury, while _*_ Boone sustained one or two small cuts and) it ls said, two broken ribs. They returned to towfl With trank Audersoft.

' r mmunication between coast and Interior, They left Hope Saturday morning about 11 o'clock. Their record Is a .1 range admixture of fast time and hi'ts. They were out to enjoy the ivfp, not to make endurance records, but when they stepped, they covered fir e ground at a good clip. '•'heir first day's travel took them to 23 Mountain, and they camped at Bill Robinson's Defiance Camp—the Sliver Daisy mine—for three nights. Monday they resumed their forward Journey and reached a point about eight miles beyond the S & M camp, or about 14 miles from Princeton, By the this time, unfortunately, a heel-bruise which Miss Morrison had suffered in hiking had become sufficiently sere and infected to force her to quit, and, leaving her in care of a friendly old prospector, her companion pushed on to Princeton, It was now her turn for a little adventure, and, following directions over-carefully, she mistook the "red bridge," which was intended to convey the impression of the Nine Mile bridge, for the Whipsaw bridge, and she followed the Whipsaw trail for a few miles before discovering her error. On realizing her mistake, however, she retraced -her steps, and wag well on the road to Princeton when she was picked up by a friendly truck driver.

FINE TRIP pSSE The young ladies are seasoned hikers, and refer to incidents on their trip with psychology this is ad- m-'table. Worry never entered into heir fun, and they cannot understand how anyone could have anything but glttuifie pleasure in making the crossing. The trip, they say, was a real adventure, and they experienced a thrill of exultation when they began to make the climb at Cedar Flats, and realized they were coming to the summit. At the crest— 6600 feet above sea level—their feelings amply repaid any trials of travel. They were especially Impressed with the wonderful foliage and flora. They had not realised that mountain flora would be seen on the trip, 'Miss Morrison ls a member of the Alpine Club of Canada, Miss Petter ot the B.C. Mountaineering Club.

MEET FRIDAY TO ARRANGE FOR JULY 1 CELEBRATION The ball will be started rolling for the July 1 celebration tomorrow (Friday) night when the organization meeting is called for the Parish Rail, immediately following a meeting of Princeton Racing and Athletic Association, for shareholders' only. There is no reason why this year's celebration should not be the greatest on record. Baseball, football, and horse racing will again be prominent. For the first time ambulance competitions will be conducted, and this will provide a new and very interesting departure. Everything points to the best opportunity ever for a bumper celebration. Conditions in Princeton and vicinity have seldom been happier, and all that U wanted is organized effort. There is none too much time. Penticton got a big Jump on Princeton by electing their eomnrttee April 19. They lined up everything early, and took ample time to work it out, Princeton should capitalize her celebration to a greater extent, and make . bigger bid to outsiders.

"THURSDAY, JUNE 6, 1929 Looking It Over [Our own and other people's views.] OUR OLD FRIEND WAG One observes with great interest that W. A. Wagenhauser took an active and prominent part in the welcome which Princeton paid to the Lieutenant-Governor and his party. There is nothing which W. A. is better at than welcoming. He is certainly an enthusiastic host. Mr. Wagenhauser is by way of being head of the Princeton board of trade, and from what everyone says, is doing much to put Princeton "on the map." Men of his type are exceedingly useful ln young and ambitious towns, and Princeton should realize that he is no small asset to the community. We can readily recall that when he lived here he leaped, perhaps not lightly but at any rate quickly, into any movement which had for Its object the advancement of community aspirations. Penticton people all hope that Princeton will get full advantage of Mr. Wagenhauser's willingness to work and that he will in turn receive tangible appreciation of the community's regard.—Penticton Herald. CORRESPONDENCE Re: Sidewalks Prineeton, B.C. Editor,. Star, Princeton, B.C. Dear Sir:—Allow me to congratulate you on the efforts you are making to have the Princeton Star a community paper. Your item under the heading of "Character" was very pleasing to me, because recently there has been too much "hush, hush" in Princeton re the sidewalks.. The following letter from our member, Hon. W. A. McKenzie, should be of interest to your readers, because it proves we have representing us, at Victoria, a man who is ready to give the Similkameen Valley a square deal: Gilbert, Prideaux, Esq., Princeton, B.C, Dear Mr. Prideaux:—I received this morning the marked copy of the Princeton Star and note what you say in said letter. . May I Just point out to you that tor many years before the Conservativel. government came into office the sidewalks of Prinieton were in; a. deplorable condition and little 'Work Was ever done on them. It was im possible for the present government, 'after taking :■ office' last ye&B to do anything"in 1928 as the moneys allocated at''fihe previous ._e'ssio"_t of the legislature had been nearly-: all expended by;the .late.-government.-.1 did, however, at the first opportunity, have Mr", Lougheed Visit Princeton in order to. show him the deplorable condition . of "the sidewalks and roads ln that district? Just as soon as the money •was available after the last session of the legislature, the matter of the sidewalks was taken up with the district engineer. It is now in the hands of the people of Princeton who are directly affected by the walks, and as soon as they come to a complete "Understanding with the distriet- engineer work on the' walks : wjll be proceeded with without delay. But nothing, definite will be done until a definite arrangement is reached. We stand ready to do our part without delay. The matter of incorporation does not enter into the question of walkB. The government will, build the walks whether incorporation goes ahead or not, on the basis of fifty-fifty per cent. Yours very truly, W. A. MeKBNZIE, Minister.

The senior pole vault was also a bitterly contested affair, with Neil showing Very good form. s_4Sk"* MANY FINE FEATURE8 The meet, in spite of the unfortunate weather, will go down as a very successful one. The attendance was surprisingly good, judging on the comments expressed beforehand, and would uhdobtediy nave been better but for the rain. Enthusiasm did hot lag, though the crowd had to dart for shelter at ihterValB, or muster cheers with rain lashing in their faces. The weather, too, retarded the progress of the events, Copper Mountain te to be congratulated on their fine preparations. From advertising to accommodation they handled affairs well, and had nature been at all decent, would have made it a gala day. Kermeos, handicapped by the loss of Innis and Richter, who last year garnered half their total points, made a plucky showing, while Jura's work probably provided a record for all times. Good coaching made all the difference for Princeton this year. Principal R. D. Affleck showed that with so much material to select from, Princeton could without difficulty set the pace. Blakeburn showed much improved form over last year, as did Copper Mt. Hedley's point total hardly does the school justice^ as they were alway dangerous. It was unfortunate that Coaimont could not compete but pleasing to see the out-of-the-way school of Olalla taking a place, RELAY TEAMS Junior Boys: PMnceton—A. McDiarmid, M. Garrison, R. Smith, F.

BRITISH COLUMBIA FOREST SERVICE COPPER MOUNTAIN BEATS PRINCETON BY ONE GOAL Town Boys Show Best Form of Season in Holding Mountain to 1-0 in Good Contest Friday Producing their best form of the season, Princeton footballers held the league leading Copper Mountain team to a single goal margin on a heavy field at Copper Mountain Friday. ..The only goal came on a brilliant shot from Parker, early In the first half, when he caught the visit, ing defense napping. Copper Mountain had the edge throughout, but were not greatly concerned In piling on goals. They found the Princeton defense the tightest this year, and Dodd in exceptionally good form. The entire Copper Mountain team played as usual, to perfection. For Princeton, Constable Thomson, a veteran, turned out to fill a breach, and turned in a magnificent game. Princeton's big chance to even up came well on in the second half when a break-away found Moore taking It easy out of his charge. Pitt's rocket shot saw the custodian, just get back in time. It was a clean, gentlemanly game, played In the best of spirits, a pleasure to watch and to participate la.

BLAKEBURN 2, MERRITT 4 Blakeburn took another on the rose—its second defeat in organized football, and In the space of a few weeks—Sunday when the coal heavers travelled to Merritt and succumbed to the Nicola boys 4-2 in an evenly 'ought contest. The score, according to spectators, dogs not flatter Blakeburn, who, especially in the second half, were as good as their conquerors. Their finishing, however,. was terrible, and some of the forwards were inclined to hold on to the ball too long. Percy Williams, a brother of the regular goalkeeper, and Tom Brown, former .coast star, made successful debuts. Blakeburn got away to a bad start, and were two down In a twinkling. It was 3-0 before Williams found the net on a nicely taken opportunity. After the lemons the visitors dug in, and soon Miller, who had come up to the forward line, reduced the leeway to a single goal. A lone sortie, nicely manoeuvered, however, restored Merritt's two goal lead.
