May PROSPECT
IN RESERVE

Very often one sees the statement
in newspapers prospecting forbid
den in the Forest Reserves.
The attitude of the Forest Service
is clearly defined by Chief Forester
Graves, who says:
Mining claims are perfected and
new mining claims initiated under
the same laws which apply on the
unreserved public domain, and no
restriction of any kind is imposed on
the prospector in his search for
valuable minerals. He may go
freely where he pleases, and may
stake out his claim wherever he
finds indications that seem to him
worth following up. If he desires
to build a cabin on Government
land not included within the limits
of his claim, he is given a free oc-
cupancy permit and free timber
permit for its construction. On his
own claim he need only comply with
the law to remain in undisturbed
possession for as long time as he
may desire before making final
proof. Both the timber and the
forage on it are reserved for his
use, in SO far as he may need either
in connection with the development
of his claim; and if the supply on
his own claim is not sufficient for
his needs, free use of national
forest timber, and of range for his
work animals, may be had for the
asking. When he desires to make
final proof no requirements are i'm
posed upon him other than those
laid nown by the general mining
law for all public lands. Moreover,
by the protection which national
forest administration affords against
fire and by the provision made for
permanence of timber supplies for
local needs, he gains both in secur-
ity against fire loss and in insurance
against the danger of having to
bring timber from distant markets
at heavy cost in order to work his
mine.

To Work For
Greater At
tendance

Il believe the attendance at the
university can be increased and the
cooperation of the newspapers of
the state in the movement will be
great assistance
So stated Professor Robert Lew
ers last night, says the Journal.
Mr.. Levers is acting president Of
the Nevada university and is just
now busy mapping out campaign
to give the university much publici-
ty of the right sort with the general
purpose of building up a greater
university.
Continuing Professor Levers said
that within the next few days he
would communicate with the princi-
pal of every high school in the state.
In these communications he will ex-
plain the present campaign, urge the
active assistance of the various
teachers and ask for a list of all
students who will be available for
the college work at the conclusion
of the present term. This list will
include not only members of the
graduating class, but young men
and young women who may have
graduated a year or two ago, or
who may be eligible for entrance to
the agricultural, industrial or min
ing departments.
When he secures the list of eligible
students, Prof. Levers plans to
communicate directly with them
urging that they arrange to con-
tinue their education at the Nevada
university.
In addition letters are to be sent
to graduates of the university urg-
ing them to do some lively boosting
for their alma mater. The student
body at the university is planning to
take the matter up. The college
paper, The Sagebrush, has come
out strongly in favor of the move
ment. Students are to write to the
boys and girls of their home towns
telling of university life, its advan-
tages, its allurments and urging all
to strive for higher education at
the Nevada university.
1t the meantime it is proposed to
enlist the editorial support of the
newspaper of the state in the cam
paign. Communications are to be
sent to the newspapers urging their
cooperation, and, as Professor
Levers says, if all the newspapers
start to boosting, and all of the old
graduates and the present college
students get busy, the teachers and
the university authorities will find
their work in making a greater
university half completed.

DOUGLAS HIGH
DEFEAT RENO

Last Friday evening the largest
crowd yet to attend a basketball
game assembled at Valhalla hall
to witness the games with the Reno
teams.
The girls game was the first to
be played and although the home
team was no match for the exper-
fenced visitors, they put up a stub
born game and made Reno work for
every point. Too much credit can
not be given to Miss Davis of the
Reno team for her remarkable
playing. She simply could not miss
goal. With her out of the team
the game would have been very
even. The final score was 36-l7 in
favor of Reno.
The boys game was an exciting
event and the Douglas team sue
ceeded in winning and annexed the
high school championship of western
Nevada. The Reno boys went into
the game confident of victory but
the game was not many minutes old
before they realized that the farmer
lads were no easy game. In fact
they played rings around the Reno
boys in the first half, the result be-
ing 3-l9. In the second half Reno
played a much better game and for
a while it looked as though they
would tie the score and possibly de-
feat the home team. Douglas
made another squirt and when time
was called the score was 1927 in
favor of Douglas.
After the game a dance was held
in honor of the visitors.
A highly satisfactory part of the
game was its success financially as
we'll as otherwise. Enough cash
was taken in to defray expenses and
also liquidate a small Indebtedness
standing from former games.
Both teams expect to go to Reno
before long to play a return game.
