MAY CHALLENGE
THE BUTTE TEAM
MAY HOLD ELIMINATION HAM
MER AND DRILL CONTEST
HERE, WINNERS TO MEET
wEsTERNERs.

The record set up by the Becker
hammer and drill team of 59h inches
at the c. & III. miners picnic last Sat
urday afternoon, is the principal sub
ject of conversation among local
miners just now. II is the general
opinion that another contest should be
held, sort OF an elimination affair,
for the purpose of choosing a team to
represent the copper country in an
other match with the Butte team for
the championship of the country. If
the Becker team can prove consistency
in drilling. then 1t is believed it should
be the team TO represent this section
of the mining world in the proposed
national contest.
There is hardly any doubt but that
sufficient funds could be raised locally
to help defray a teams expenses e.
Butte, for that would be the logical
place for the next contest II the cop
per country miners were the challeng-
ers. The Butte team twice visited the
copper country and has carried away
the laurels each time.
Great Improvement is being noted in
the work OF the local hammer and
drill experts and it is contended there
is no good reason why Calumet OF
some other town in the copper country
cannot produce hammer and drill ex.
perts the equal of any in Butte or any
other mining camp,
The idea of holding an elimination
contest for the choosing of team t.
contest for national honors is said e
be strongly favored and there is reason
to believe thatsomething definite alonl
this line will take place shortly.
