The Football Game!
’l‘he (irovilie Hornets took the sec
ond game from Oinuk on Friday last.
and placed tinnselves several points
nearer the county championship.
()mak was hindered by the loss of sev
eral of their players. but they put up
an lntt-restimtr fight for all of that.
They are a game little bunch and we.
wish them well against Okunogan for
the last game of the season. The two
teams fought hard. with Oroville
the best. possibly on the aggres
sive by reason of her aerial
attack. Ervin Curtis carried the ball
over for two of Oroviilc’s three touch
downs. ()mak made here traditional
stone wall defense against the Horn
t-ts when they threatened the Omak
goal and finally punted out of danger
when ’i‘om lost the hall on a fumble.
The game ended to the satisfaction of‘
both teams by a score of 19 to 6. By
accident or coincidence this is the sec
ond time Oroville has beaten the
down-river team by that score.
The Tonuket Game.

or the state and the nervlce was in
ets aggregation dug'down in the crit- ‘
ivul moments of the game and held the
Tiger eleven scoreless until the end
oi the first half. With blood in their
eye the Oroville team started the sec‘ ‘
and half with a rush that carried To
nasket or: their feet. and at the he
giunlng of the fourth quarter scored
the only six points of the game
through a 30yard diagonal forward
pass to Ervln Curtis with the
end zone. Several protests were made
during the game. but on the whole.
the relative standing of both teams
was shown by the score of 6 to 0 for
Oroville: ‘ \
'l‘he Hornets are hard at practice to
win their remaining game of the seas
on. that at Tonasket on Thanksgiving.
Heavy practice is the order of the day

much against the Tigers on the feli

RAPID DAM BUILDERS.
Workmen tor the J. C. Biies Lumber
company discovered this week that
they were not the only builders of
dams on Umak creek. In clearing tor
the‘raHWay right of way up Omak
creek. the crew came agross a beav
‘er dam that stood in their way. They
proceeded to demolish it and go on
‘their way rejoicing. What, to their
dismay. they found upon returning to
work the next' morning a higher dam
than the one they had torn down.
They proceeded to wreck this struc
ture but when they came the next day
following and found that the beaver
family had again built still a bigger
‘dum. A call to the county game com
]mlsison has been made to remove
these busy dam workmen. The sug
gestion has been made that Commis

at their special line of construction
and let them out on contracts where
modest sized dams are in demand.
