BIG MEET

When the 800 high school athletes
of South Dakota or state
Field" for their official track and field
meet to morrow, they will find every
detail attended to, track finished,
marked and measured; field smooth
and laid out; headquarters for each
team provided; officials ready; and
trophies on hand for distribution.
Were coming good and strong" is
the word from most of the leading
high schools if the state, Huron es-
pecially having made plans for a
special train.
In addition to the larger high schools
of Sioux Falls, Aberdeen, Watertown,
Huron, Yankton, Mitchell, Pierre,
Brookings, and others, it is certain
that more teams will be entered from
small schools than ever before. The
fact that there will be several good
men entered in many events from the
large schools gives individuals from
small schools a good chance to win
telling scores, which will cut into the
sum total of the available points.
State College and the city of Brook
ings are making many plans for the
entel tainment of high school athletes
and their friends. Special music will
be furnished duril the day by the
State College military band of As
pieces under the direction Of Prof.
Carl Christensen. There will doubt
less be several high school bands pres
ent, the crack Huron high school band
of thirty pieces having already writ
ten for accommodations. Rooming and
boarding places are listed in advance,
so that an enormous crowd can be ac-
commodated. All athletes are enter
tanned free Of charge. In addition to
band concerts, there will be the usual
entertainment of high school athletes
by the college Monogram club, sight
seeing tour of the college visiting the
Siberian fat-rumped sheep, the famous
dairy herd and College Belle Wayne,
the engineering shops, which will be
run in full blast, and the laboratories
of the home economics, agronomy,
chemistry and horticultural depart
ments. All athletes will be carried to
and from the field to meals and room
ing places by automobiles.

erty in close proximity to the present
plant that was being injured by its
presence.
Geo. p. Sexauer said that proper
firing would help to do away with the
smoke nuisance and by raising the
stack forty feet and putting on a hood
the smoke would not bother anyone.
He brought out a good point by urging
that the city secure an expert engineer
from abroad to come here and tell us
the best thing to do. Mr.. Sexauer said
that the court house smoke stack was
a nuisance, moreso than the city plant,
a nuisance, more SO than the city plant
the county being so poor that it can
not afford a good grade of coal. The
laundry was another nuisance that was
as bad if not worse than the plant.
Paul butcher said hat the Register
was strictly in the smoke, being be-
tween two fires, the laundry and the
power plant. Mr.. butcher thought
that we should build for a bigger and
better Bookings and he advocated
moving the plant. 1t is located, he
said, in what will be Bookings civic
center and ii would spoil the entire
scheme of things to have an unsightly
power plant in the midst of what
should be the most beautiful part of
the city. The vacated ground could
be used for a school building or better
yet, could be converted into a park, a
beauty spot that is badly needed in
Brookings.
Mayor Mathews was of the opinion
that the plant should be left where it
is, particularly on account of the cost.
If the plant is moved the mayor favor
ed bonding the city instead of paying
seven per cent on warrants.
Chairman Carlisle agreed with Mr..
Cheever and Mr.. butcher that the city
beautiful was more to be considered
than the saving of a dollar or two. We
should look ahead, he said, for fifty
years and lay u plans accordingly.
The extra cost of moving If distributed
over a long term Of years would not
amount to hardly anything.
There was considerable more discus
sion of the matter and speakers seem.
ed to be evenly divided for and against
moving. Finally it was agreed to put
the question up to a vote of the meet
ing and this was done, with the result
that 81 votes were cast in favor of
moving the plant and 27 against it.

to all who have passed through the
experience of graduation. The title of
the play is, 1.-The Dear Boy Graduate"
1t deals with the trials and fluctuations
of both the graduate and his relations
at home, and sets one to thinking
which works the harder to get the
coveted diploma. The ideas of his
grandmother and aunts offer much
amusement-the dear boy finally sue
ceeds in passing the examinations, and
arrives safely at commencement.
The election of athletic officers for
the ensuing year was made a very
novel as we'll as instructive and inter-
esting to the students of the high
school. The nominating eommitte2
brought in a minority and majority re-
port which resulted in two full tickets
being brought into the field, known as
the Boosters" and Get There's" The
following day another full ticket ap-
peared in the field as an Independent"
ticket. Official ballots were printed,
the school was divided into three vot-
ing precincts, a full election board
was appointed for each precinct and
the election was carried out according
to the rules and regulations Of the
Australian system. The polls were
open from $3.50 to 500 p. m. and the
election was very orderly and dignified.
The girls registering were given the
right to vote. The candidates on the
Booster" ticket were Pres. John
Rogers; vice-president, Philip Sever
son; secretary, Lawrence Olson; treas
urer, Lawrence Knappen. Get There"
ticket: President, Elmer Kennard;
vice-president, Robert Yule; secretary,
Charles Culhane, treasurer, Moral
Hall. Independent" ticket: President,
Robert Yule; vice-president, Philip
Severson; secretary, Harry Solberg;
treasurer, Lawrence Knappen.
The official returns of the election
gave John Rogers a popular majority
of "a votes for president; Philip Sever
sons majority for vice-president, IS;
Chas. Culhane for secretary, a popular
majority of 10; Lawrence Knappen for
treasurer, 81.

VOTE
To MOVE PLANT
MASS MEETING is IN FAVOR OF
MOVING POWER PLANT TO
NEW SITE
MEETING SHOWS DIFFERENCE OF OPINION
On This Subject to Be Wide, But All
Agreed That a New Plant for the
City is Absolutely Necessary

A mass meeting of the citizens, call
ed by Mayor Mathews and President
Carlisle of the Commercial Club, was
held at the assembly room of the city
hall Monday evening to discuss the
question of rebuilding the power plant
on the present site or moving it to an
other location. About one hundred citi-
zens were present. NJ. G.. Carlisle was
elected chairman of the meeting and G..
d. Cole secretary.
To get the discussion started Alder
man Hoy, who is chairman of the
power plant committee, was asked to
give the results of his investigations
into this matter. Mr.. Hoy stated that
it had been apparent to the council for
some time that the plant would have
to be enlarged to meet the increasing
load which the growth of tie city is
putting onto it. Mr.. Hoy said that it
would cost between fifteen and eigh-
teen thousand dollars to rebuild the
plant and install needed machinery if
the plant remained where it is. If the
plant is moved to another site it
would cost twelve or fifteen thousand
dollars more. The biggest cost of re-
moval would be to lay new heating
mains and construct new electric
lines, this alone being estimated at
eight thousand dollars. Mr.. Hoy
thought that the smoke nuisance which
has been one Of the main criticisms
against the present location, could be
overcome to a great extent by a better
grade of coal, a higher smoke stack
and better firing.
When Mr.. Hoy had concluded the
chairman urged that questions upon
any point in doubt be asked. The
question of burning oil was brought up
and Mr.. Hoy said that this would elm
mate smoke and might be as cheap
as coal, but that he would not recon-
mend oil engines without a thorough
investigation.
To the question of how much energy
goes up the chimney in the way of
smoke Mr.. Hoy stated that it did not
amount to over one-half to one per
cent.
w. H. Conklin was OF the opinion
that the city should install mechani-
cal stokers, as they save considerable
in fuel and very nearly do away with
smoke. Mr.. Conklin said that the fir
ing at the power plant was lot being
done properly.
Mr.. Robertson, representative of a
Twin City machinery company. was
called upon and he said that in his
opinion the city would be foolish to
move the plant, as it was now located
in the center of distribution where 1t
would give the best service.
w. M. Cheever said that in his opin-
ion the plant was poorly located, being
in close proximity to the school build
ings, court house, library, churches
and other public buildings. In his
opinion we should build for the future
instead of the immediate present, ven
though it will cost a little more.
DR.. Hyde said that there was $500
900 worth of public and private prop
