athletes went to Huron Thursday, ac-
companied by the cadet band and a
number OF students and citizens and
on Friday morning the crowd was

about 800 people, was by far the larg-
est present from any outside town.

trials, basket ball and tennis. The
Brookings basket ball team were VIC

ORATORICAL CONTEST
As the REGISTER did not have rep
resentauve at the contest we cannot
give a detailed account of that inter
csting feature. James Crowther of
Mitchell won first honors, Miss Tread
way OF Iankton, second, and VIM.
Smith of Brookings, third. Many
were of the opinion that Mr.. Smith
should have been credited higher on
thought. BE that as it may the mark
ings were SO close that the Judges
were out nearly an hour before they
arrived at an agreement.
Thursday was an ideal day and an
immense crowd was present both dur
ing the forenoon and afternoon. The
Agricultural college cadet band fur
nished music during the morning
hours and the students relieved the
band in the afternoon with songs and
college yells.
