Readers respond to a May 7 item on a $40,000 school debt asking four questions about trustees authority liability and mortgage status. The editorial defends the board, explains levy changes, notes no mortgage exists, and urges passage of the necessary bond to resolve the situation.
The steady downpour across Hayward and Alameda County yields mixed effects on crops. Grain regions face only light damage, hay may rot if fields stay wet, cherries risk splitting, and spring peas face delays. Overall, growers see a satisfactory year and welcome more rain, pending further checks.

A cyclone struck Ashland last Sunday during a game with the I. D. E. S. baseball team of Oakland. They trounced the locals 22 to 5 with Perry being batted out of the box in the third.
The text argues the money spent on school improvements is small to property owners and could be funded by a direct tax or local hand. It notes elections cost a few hundred dollars and questions withholding the needed sum as foolish.
Perry and Borba were relieved early as the locals faltered. Feeley impressed for theC. E. 3, while Ashland was outclassed like a week earlier by the Oakland Typewriters. A lineup swap in the sixth inning led to onfield comedy as the catcher and three infielders swapped positions with the outfield. Spectators roared while relief pitchers stayed cold on the bench. Rumor says the locals may meet the county hospital team next Sunday.
