AROUT ADAMS i
AS PRESIDENT
Revote Gives Former Legislator
All But One Vote as Hood
Canal Sportsmen Chief
Executive Thurs.
It took a second trty to accom-
plish it, but now there’s no doubt
about the fact that George N.i
Adams is president of the Hood
Canal Sportsmens Association. :-
The former 24th District legis-
lator received all but one ballot
(maybe that was his own) for the
office in the presidential revote
cast at Hoodsport last Thursday
as the June session of the Sports—
mens Ass’n was held.
Adams had been declared win~
association in May but the organ-
ization’s executive board later de-
clared the election contrary to the
association’s by-laws because Ad-
ams had not received a majority
of‘the votes cast for a field of
three candidates.
But now there’s no question, for
only one vote kept it from being
unanimous last Thursday.
Warm Words Fly
The vote was not held, however,
until after a rather heated debate
over whether the minutes of the
May meeting, in which the elec-
tion of Adams was recorded as
certified, should be approved or
deferred until after the revote.
During this debate Adams rapped
in strong terms “the persons who
have been painting me with one
stripe and another as a sports-
man" and cited some of the moves
he had made in the legislature to
assist sportsmens’ programs to
aid conservation and propagation
of wild life resources of this state.
At the new president’s sugges-
tion, a resolution was passed ask-
ing the State Game Department
to close Finch Creek, which emp-
ties into Hood Canal at Hoods-
port, to fishing by all except chil-
dren under 16 years of age. Presi-
dent Adams then appointed Leo
Johnson and Herb Dickinson a
committee to get support for the
same measure from the Hoods—
port Commercial Club and ap-
pointed himself to ask thereunty
commissioners for endorsement of
the proposal. ‘

Shelton Wins Peninsula Dedication
Game, 8—5, Rallies For 9-7
Win Over Willipans
Shelton’s youthful diamond
warriors, the Loggers, showed a
marked penchant for spoiling
“openers” for rival teams over
the 'weekend, twice cuffing out
decisions while playing the role
of opponents in inaugural bat-
ties.
At Port Angeles Friday night,
after Gov. Art Langlie had high-
lightled a big community celebra-
tion; dedicating the new lighted
athletic park in the peninsula;
city, the Loggers hammered the
offerings of two former Western
“International Lea gu e hurlers,
George Marshall and Howard
Johnson, for an 8 to 5 victory.
At home on Loop Field Sunday
afternoon the hustling young 10—
cals rallied in the eighth for four
runs which brought a 9 to 7 vic-
tory over the Raymond Mer-
chants, who were making their
first start of the year.
Both games were well—played,
exceptionally interesting diamond
struggles.

rescued the land from falling into

An invitation to the sportsmen
from the Shelton Chamber of
Commerce to hear Bernard T. Mc-
.Cauley, director of the State Game
Department, speak at the Cham-
ber’s meeting July 10 in Shelton
was read.
The July and August meetings
of the Sportsmens Association
were cancelled by action of the
membership and President Adams
given the authority to appoint
delegates to the next State Sports
Council meeting in September.

of any fire will become a critical
problem. Our forests of western
Washington'are not only a vital
resource for our National Defense
Program. but are also a source
of employment for a large per-
centage of our people.
A forest user, by his neglect
or carelessness with fire, may
therefore unwittingly give aid to
the enemies of our country.
_The Forest Service will appre-
ciate the coopertation of alllFor-

Up at Port Angeles the Log-
gers wasted little time getting to
their two rival throwers, import-
ed especially for the dedication
game, along with Catcher Ray
Spurgeon of Tacoma.
Johnson, who played three
years with Yakima in the W. I.
league but quit the pro game for
more lucrative pay in the Ta-
coma Shipyards, was blasted for
five hits and five runs in the
second, young Bill Taylor cli-
maxing the frame with a beauti—
ful steal of home. Alec Matson
started things with a clean sin-
gle, Buck Armstrong singled, Stan
Armstrong doubled, Cliff Kelly
drew a fluke blow on a bad hop,
and Taylor doubled during the
outburst. >
Buck Armstrong cheated him-
self of receiving credit for hit-
ting the first me run in the
new Port Angeles park when he
failed to touch second after slash-
ing the ball against the 388-foot
rightfield wall.
Greet Marshall Warmly
The Loggers moved the count
to 8-0 with another trio in the
eighth as Marshall, who pitched
for Shelton’s last Northwest
.League entry in 1939, took up the
hurling burden. Bill Levett’s dou-
ble started it, with Dan Cormier,
Matson and Earl Lumsden follow-
ing with singles to account ‘ for
the trio.
In the me ntime, Letfy Jack
Cole had bed the Port Angeles
swingers hitless for the first
five innings,' gave up the safety
in the sixth, got into a little trou-
ble in the seventh as the result
of an error, a walk and a hit,
then caved-in in the eighth and
had to give away to Ralph Le-
Drew with three runs across and
the bases full. LeDrew retired
the, side after two more runs
crossed and got the home swing-
ers without damage in the ninth.

REGISTRANTSW
ANSWER BUT TEN
EASY QUESTlON
zl-Year-Olds Must Register For
Selective Service This
Tuesday Between
7 a.m.—9 p.m.
When Mason County 21-year-
olds register this Tuesday at the
draft board offices in the base-
ment of the Shelton postoffice
building, adding their names to
the selective service roster, they
will be required to answer only
ten simple questions, Chairman Ed
Faubert of the local board said
today. .
Asserting that the registration
will involve no complex proced-
ure, Chairman Faubert said that
the questions on the registrant’s
card pertain only to his identity,
his address, the person who will
always know his address, and his
employer.
The questions registrants must
answer he explained further, are
contained on a four-by-six-inch
filing card and include the follow-
ing: (1) name of registrant; (2)
place of residence; (3) mailing ad-
dress (if other than plaCe of resi-
dence; (4) telephone; (5) age in
years; (6) place of birth; (7) oc-
cupation; (8) .name and address
of person who will always know
your address; (9) employer‘s name
and address, and (10) place of em-
ployment or business.
After a registrant has answer;
ed the questions and signed his
name to his registration card, he
will be given a registration cer-
tificate signed by the registrar.
He must have his certificate in
his personal possession at all“
times. Under the Selective reg-
ulations, failure to possess the cer-
tificate, or to show it to author-
ized persons, constitutes a viola-
tion of the regulations and is to
be considered prima facie evidence
of failure to register.
Registration for Mason county
will be carried out during a 14-
hour period from 7 a. m. to p. m.
at the draft board offices in the
basement of the Shelton postof-
fice building with Mrs. Faubert,
Mrs. Hal Briggs and Mrs. Ida Rex
Loughnam as the volunteer regis-
trars.

by the resignations of Police
Chief Ray Starwich and Engin-

He promptly filled the first of
‘the vacancies by announcing this
morning the appointment of Andy

new chief of police, succeeding
Starwich, whose resignation be:
comes effective July 1.
Bantz Appointment July 1
Mr. Bantz' resignation, how-
ever, has not yet actually been
received by the mayor, but it is
expected in an early mail inas-
much as Mr. Bantz last Saturday
was appointed by Gov. Langlie to
the post of state highway de-

but until he actually receives the
resignation Mayor Stevenson said
today he will not make any an-

MAYOR FINDS CROPS
GOOD, MUCH BUILDING
Accompanied by Mrs. Stevan-
son and their children, Bill and
Rosemary, Mayor Stevenson fe-
turned to Shelton last week from
a three-week trip designed pri-
marily to take factory delivery
of a new car.
I A sidetrip into northern Mich-
igan and a visit with Mrs. Steven-
son’s relatives in southern 111i.-
nois were other highlights. May-
or Stevenson reported today he
noted excellent crops everywhere,
even in the center of the so-calle
ed “dust bowl” area, although
some of the farming areas still
showed plainly the effects of the
tough years they’ve gone through,
while home construction was
plainly noticeable for some dis-
tance around the defense produc-
tion centers, he said.
The return trip, via the north-
ern route, was highlighted by a
good look at the famous Rush-
more Memorial and the Dakota
badlands, both of which the Shel-
ton mayor found exceptionally in-
teresting.
