TO GIVE Federation
GREATER CHANGE
FOR WORK
That Is Object Sought by
New OMcials-Wiu Push
Aggressive Campaign

How to make the North Dakota
Federation Of Commercial Clubs more
useful and more effective in bringing
about the development for the state Is
the subject which the officers Of that
organization, elected just before the
first annual meeting was brought to a
close in this city Thursday evening,
will seek to solve.
Every energy of the officers will be
directed with the end in view OF
bringing every commercial club of the
state into closer touch with each 9TH
er. A better understanding of the
situation which exists in this or that
part Of the state will be sought, and
out Of the whole tho oficials Of the
federation hope to be able to bring
a general movement that will bring
great benefits to the commonwealth.
The new officers of the club fol-
low:
President-E. j. Lander.
First Vice President-John Brueg-
GER, Williston.
Second Vice President-w. H. Hor-
ton. Devils Lake.
Third Vice President-J. r. Forbes,

Friday night, following the adj
journment Of the general federation.
the executive committee held a brief
session. Only a small amount of bust
ness was transacted, the principal
feature cared for being the placing
Of immediate affairs in charge Of the
president and secretary.
The election Of Mr.. Lander as pres
ident Of the club means that this city
will be the center of activities for the
organization during the coming year.
and every support will be rendered
the federation through the Grand
Forks Commercial club in seeking to
place the general organization on a
better business basis.
Resolutions which were adopted by
the federation were in the nature
of expressions Of thanks at the en-
tertainment afforded by Grand Forks.
One resolution that was particularly
interesting places the federation on
record as being in favor Of closer co.
operation with the better farming
forces and the State Banking asso-
citation. the efforts Of the latter to-
wards brineing about better condi-
lions for the farmers being compli-
mented.

PROPOSE A STATE TURNEY
Minot School Superintendent Would
Have Basketball Teams Meet
at University.

That a high school basketball tour
.nament of the teams in the state
which have a right to compete for the
state title should be held at the uni
versity in Grand Forks. is the con-
tention Of Superintendent Wolf of the
Minot public schools. In the Minot
Reporter his idea Of the situation is
set forth as follows:
For the past two years Prof. Wolf
has advocated a tournament, arrang-
ed between the half dozen strongest
teams of the state. to be played at
the university gymnasium. Supt.
Lynn Of the Kenmare schools is work
ing together with MI. Wolf in an ef-
fort to bring about such a disposition
Of the championship contests. MI.
Wolf believes that an a neutral floor
with the management in the hands Of
tho best team in the state would win
the championship and it would at the
same time do away with the bitter
feeling that IL engendered frequently
between some Of the schools over the
championship at the present time.
This would seem q very fair and
otherwise very satisfactory way of
discovering which basket ball team
was really entitled to the champion
ship"
