The Yale plays were continued by the

The defensive has not quito reached
the stage that Haughton and his CO.

every, effort to bolster up the lincmen
in this respect.
The Canadian plays are also being
used to some extent, but Haughton is

expected that the play, used against
Princeton, which was so successful,
wherein nine men palyed on the line,

MEET IN TOURNEY
Plans for District Basketball
Tournament Have Been
Completed.

Announcement was made al the
university this morning hat the high
school basketball tournament for the
northeastern part of the state will be
held at the institution Thursday and
Friday, February 26 and 81. 1t was
thought at first thai it would be neces-
sary to set aside three days for the
event. but as there will be only five
schools participating, two days will be
sufficient.
The towns who will take part in
the meet are Grand Forks, Park
River, Lakota, Michigan and Penn
hina. The state has been divided Off
into our districts, and all schools
who wish to play for the champion
ship must play in their own prelim-
mary contests. The fnal contest will
be played at Fargo during the month
Of March.
There is generally a dispute every
year over the championship, but the
new plan will eliminate any trouble
along this line. If all contenders do
not play as they are told to by the
committee in charge, they will be
ruled out.

seasoned personal Of its workers. and
it should so be in the business of the
city. Under a political organization
there can be only temporary Jobs and
temporary job-holders. The commits
sion is a continuous body, It's work.
ing staff would be a continuous one
except for change Of individuals as
rect.
Yet the commission is always close
to the people. Any one member can
be recalled at any time. Any meas
ure, expenditure or ordinance can be
vetoed by the people, not by one man
as under the council system, or the
commission "a be made by petition
to pass desired legislation. The
five men cannot dodge any RESPONSE
bility, as none is divided with any
other set Of officials. The administra-
ton of he entire business of the city
is localized in n set of men. These
men are placed where they cannot
dodge the issues or get away from
the consequences Of any act. 1t is up
to them to show results, there is no
one else to shove the blame onto for
things done wrong. o no n else
supposed to do part OF the work.
If the commission fails in its trust,
or one member fails the remedy is al
ways at hand. The commission is the
board Of directors of the city .corpor-.
alton, different only from the board
Of directors of q business corporation
in. this. that the stockholders or citi-
at any time, or stop any act not IA
vored by the majority. or make them
do what the majority wants done.
The city is a business corporation.
Its business is the most. varied and
largest in the expenditure In the COM
munity. The citizen is q vitality inter-
ested s~tockholder. In a private BUSH
one man to hire all the employees, ar
range a multiplicity Of overlapping
departments, veto any measure the
board of directors might pass. and
then elect a board Of directors of
fourteen men to try to: do the rest as
best they can. Such an organization
would spell ruin for any business, and
almost unlimited taxing power. The
commission form with its closer knit
business organization has come Is a
necessity in many places.
Why should Grand Forks wait till
1t is forced into line. It is easy for
any n with some knowledge Of
what has taken place in the years
past to see and place the finger on
definite waste amounting to q hum
dred thousand dollars or more.
The personnel Of the council OF
mayor cannot be blamed. They have
been Of the best men and leading
citizens. There has never been even
the suspicion Of graft. All have
worked conscientiously. But like at
tempting to harvest with a hand
sickle, getting results with q machine
not made for business is inadequate
II not impossible.
We want business organization. not
a political relic to manage the city'sE
business.
