TOURNAMENT IS
ON AT BOZEMAN
Glasgow Loses to Billings and
Whitehall to Libby in Bas-
ketball Tournament.

Livingston, Butte and Big Timber
high school basketball teams won
Wednesday in the opening games of
the ninth annual interscholastic bas-
ketball tournament being held at Boze-
man this week. Livingston won from
Missoula 27 to 13; Butte gave the first
defeat marked against Fairview this
season, 81 to Is, and Big Timber end
ed the afternoons play by beating the
Stevensville team % to II. .....
Butte Fairview Game.
The Butte-Fairview game attracted
the most attention for the afternoon
because of the record of the eastern
Montana team and the known speed of
the Butte players. Fairview had a
quintet taller and stronger than the
Mining City five, but could not faith
ON the rapid passing that was repeat
edly uncorked between McAuliffe,
Boyer and F. Dahlberg of Butte.
McAuliffe starred in the game, if
not in the whole afternoons play, Civ
ing Butte six goals. F. Dahlberg was
able to connect with one free throw
out of two trials, McGrath making
3 out of 6 attempts.
Livingston Missoula.
The Livingston-Missoula game,
which opened the ninth annual tour
was a closed story from the
first. Missoula put up hard fight
but could not stop the passing of the
heavier Park county boys. Harvey
and Shorthill, Livingston guards, were
too attentive to Bali and Durant for
the Missoula forwards to score con-
sistently.
The play of Mcdonald featured this
game.
Sweet Grass showed we'll balanced
team in her game against Stevens
vile. Her two forwards, Lyon and
consistently got away from
the Stevensville guards, Lyon taking
six field baskets and England five.
Lyon made one free throw. No other
Big Timber player scored.
The Stevensvilles team seemed able
to keep up a stiff pace, but was I'M
able to break away from the Big
Timber guards long enough to score
baskets. All the games were refereed
by Joe Bush and Ray Pitts, members
of the state college championship
Glasgow.
Billings and Libby won yesterday
morning in the second days play.
Billings overwhelmed Glasgow, ac-
cording to press reports, by score
of 63 to Z, while Libby and White
hall fought out 23 to % contest.
Shaurette, Libby's diminutive for
ward, tossed free throw through the
basket just as the gun sounded, max
ing the northwestern boys the winners
by one point.
The Billings players are much tall
er and heavier than Glasgow's and
did much better work. Morton and
Bowman starred for Billings. R. Baer
and Houston showed up best for
Glasgow. Billings at times seemed
unable to locate the ball but was in
control always.
Glasgow and Whitehall were sched-
lled to play last night but up to the
lime of going to press no report has
)een received.
According to sport writer's of the
western dailies, the two biggest games

"A chamber OfcOmmerce is the

opportunities for internal i'm
provements of all sorts. Just
as the man standing on the top
of the mountain looks toward
the east will catch the first
rays of the rising sun long be-
fore the people in the valley

merce will see opportunities for
the city long before the men
engaged in the commerce of the
city will know the opportunity

With these glaring injustices, will
any school board refuse to pay at least
a so per cent increase in teachers
salaries this coming year-not for the
sake of the teachers, for they can tend
sheep or make beds or sell cigars, but
for the sake of the children and for
the sake of America? This will mean
that in many conservative districts
which have had low levies in the past
vote of the people will be necessary
in order to raise the levy over ten
mills, but hundreds of ambitious dis
tricts have for years been obliged to
put that responsibility on the voters
in order to have any school at all.

WIRELESS FLASHES
FROM JORDAN
i / 4 & i i Il

The epidemic of flu has practically
subsided and Jordan is now nearly
free of the disease. There are now
only two cases of pneumonia in the
vicinity. One death resulted during
the prevalence of the disease. The
schools have been re-opened.
Oil excitement is running high. Two
cars of directors and stockholders in
the Mosby Oil and Gas company left
Jordan for the Mosby field to inspect
their holdings and to keep in touch
with developments. Every available
vehicle in town has been forced into
service by oil prospectors. Several
truckloads of tools and supplies hired
by the oil company left Jordan Mon
day for Mosby. Traffic is slow and
heavy on account of the condition of
the roads.

"OVERALLS" is ADDED TO
PORTUGUESE LANGUAGE

RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil, July s.
One result Of the movement against
the high cost of living in the United
States has been to add a new word
"overal1s" to the Portuguese language
When the overalls movement start
ed IN the United States recently, news
paper men here translating the Asso-
ciated Press dispatches from English
into the Portuguese language were
perplexed The literal translation
would be "sobretudo", but as this
means overcoat in Portuguese, it would
not serve. The translators finally de-
cided on "doupa do operario, which in
English, is "workmen's clothes.''
At present, however, since photo
graphs have arrived from North Am
erica, and the movement has been
started here, no further effort is made
at translation. The simple English
word "overalls" has been adopted by
newspapers and public alike.

Cleaning House

The next occupant of the White House will
have housekeeping job facing him that will
tax his ability to the utmost. The efficiency of
the departments is at its lowest ebb; disorder
is prevalent everywhere; business is being trans
acted in tedious and slow manner. The federal
machinery is running cumbersomely and ex-
pensively,
The statement of one retiring member of the
cabinet is proof enough of the contention. Re-
Gently he declared that officials had lost their
initiative and pep, and their subordinates show
little enterprise.
The new chief executive will be compelled to
handle not only the major problems of national
significance but also Undue department and bu-
reau heads, well as their many subordnates,
with a idea of constructive service. The
present lethargy must be supplanted with en-
ergizing activity that will manifest itself in the
speedy transaction of routine business and a new
mental alertness for improvements and better
lnents.
To accomplish this, the new president will
have to surround himself at the very outset with
men enthusiastically obsessed of bringing new
life into host of employees and appointees who
have lost interest in their work or perform it in
y mechanical manner. Unfit and inefficient men
and women must be weeded out and replaced
with a new type that looks upon the work from
The standpoint of personal responsibility.
The task of cleaning house will not be an
easy one. 1t will try the mind and spirit of the
man who essays the work, but it's prime neces-
sity must outweigh every other consideration
The work of the government cannot be expedited
or performed with business-like precision and
snap if the chief executive does not sound clar-
ion call for reform at the very beginning of his
administration and backs his program with dis
culinary action wherever it is necessary

Illicit Traffic in Narcotics

It took federal agents five years to obtain
sufficient evidence to convict dealers in mar
cotics of Terre Haute before federal court, but
their patience was amply rewarded when the
head Of the gang and his subordinates were
finally put behind the bars.
An Indianapolis newspaper correspondent re-
Gently said that Richmond was the center of an
extensive traffic in narcotics coming into Indi-
ana from the east and south. Police officials
have secuted the statement, and their investiga-
ton since that time has led to no tangible evil
dence to support the assertion.

because they stoop to the lowest means to obtain
