Boies's Team Makes Showing.
One of the remarkable features OF
the elimination games was the show
ing made by the Mandan team which
is coached by Spencer Boise. former
ly Of Fargo college, and all-around
state athlete. Facing a team much
heavier and bulkier in the Washburn
"lignites,' his team battled and won
it's game by score Of rs to II.
Pfenning, Cummings, Sullivan and
Peters are the men on whom Mandan
is banking it's hopes this evening III
downing such ranch stars as McCutch-
con, Brodie and Richards.
Dickinson took the game from Bis
marck high school by a score OF %
to p, after Bismarck had won the first
half IL to 10. Couch and Grove held
the scoring whip for Bismarck, Couch
for his basket shooting and Grove for
his flashy floor work. McCutcheon,
Brodie and richards for Dickinson,
each scored five field baskets.
Mandan Must Put up Fight.
A close follower: of the details last
night knows that the Mandan team
| must throw every ounce of fight into
| the game II It is to defeat Dickinson
for the district championship. Weight

on shooting baskets. 1t seems that
when Richards once heaves the ball

points. Peters for Mandan, was lame
last night in getting free throws.
Because Of the interest manifest in
the final, it is doubtful if the gymnas.

crowd that is expecting to attend.

one time the stock broke 1-2 a

FIXING OF PRICES
TO IMPROVE STEEL

E. w. Harrison, president Of the
Superior Steel Corporation, believes
that the announcement of the gov
ehnment's prices on steel products
will bring about a stimulation of buy
ing from people who have been hold
ing up orders until Washington prices
were announced.
The fixing of prices on steel" said
Mr.. Harrison, will undoubtedly re-
suit in much new business. I have
inquiries for large tonnages from a
number of big buyers. but the con-
tracts have not been closed as the
purchasers were waiting for steel
prices to be determined.
THE Superior Steel Corporation is
in good shape as regards contracts
for raw materials. We have large
quantities of materials booked at
what are now considered very favor
able prices, while the remainder of
our material contracts average a lit
tie higher than our lowest prices.
