A PIONEER VISITOR

Bookings was honored on Tuesday
by a visit from one Of it's pioneers,
Hon. John T.. Diamond of Minneapolis.
Mr.. Diamond took an active part in
the business and political interests
of this city along in the early sos, and
there are still those residing here and
in this vicinity who well remember
his hustling qualities when it came
to doing things for Brookings. But
many Of his old time coworkers and
friends have moved away or lie be
meath the sod over on the hill.
Mr.. Diamond was a close friend OF
George M%Orehouse, the founder of the
Bank Of Bookings, and while here
paid his respects to the memory OF
that good la by visiting the Gene
terry and placing flowers upon his
tomb. Many pleasant memories were
recalled as he met a number of his
old time friends and acquaintances,
but Brookings had changed much
since his visit here nine years ago
and Mr.. Diamond could hardly realize
that he was in the same town.
Mr.. Diamond dined with the Rotary
club at its noon day luncheon On
Tuesday and gave it's members a nice
little talk.

TO TRAIN WOUNDED SOLDIERS

Two hundred soldiers have been as
signed to State college by the federal
vocational board for the coming school
year, beginning September 20. These
former service men will be given
training in agriculture and the me-
chanical trades. The plan is to make
them e vocationally so that they
may become self sustaining.
State college is the only institution
in the state offering this kind of train
ing and the management of the col
lege has been investigating every pos
sible method of housing and caring for
these former soldiers.
They are certainly worthy of every
consideration and assistance which
can be shown them" said President
Willis E. Johnson. 1t is the plan at
present to house them in the armory
until the new dormitory, now under
construction, is completed.

HUNDREDS KILLED
GREAT LOSS OF LIFE AND PROP.
ERTY IN LARGE DISTRICT
NEAR FLORENCE
WHOLE TOWNS N REGION DESTROYED
Many Fine Churches Shattered and
Terror Stricken Citizens
Flee to Fields.

Scores Of lives were lost in Italy,
in the district north of Florence, which
vas severely shaken by an earthquake
Tuesday morning. AS reports from
from the stricken region came In
over faltering telegraph and tele-
phone lines the extent Of the disaster
seems to be growing and there is a
possibility the damage done may he
much more serious than was at first
believed.
At Fvizzino, a town Of 100 inhabi.
tants nea Carrara, almost every build.
ing was damaged and many were de-
stroyed. Among the collapsed struc.
lures is the postofiice in the ruins Of
which is the entire staff. Soliera, in
the province Of Massa Maritime. and
Monti, nearby. were partly destroyed.
Riversano, Forni and Montignoro are
reported in ruins, while in Marina and
Carrara many structures have col.
lapsed. At Viareggio. the church of
st. Paul was destroyed and, at Castel
Franco de Soto, the ceiling Of a
church was shattered.
At Pisa the hands of the clock i N
the tower stopped at 7:55 o'clock In
the morning. Steeple bells were set
ringing by the disturbance. Persons
who happened to be in cathedral
square in Pisa say they saw the ia
nous Leaning Tower %perceptibly oscil-
late. Electric wires were short cir
cuited. st. Michael's church and st.
Mathews church were considerably
damaged. Other churches suffered
less seriously. Numbers Of persons
ere gravely injured by falling ma.
sOnry. Others were hurt by jumping
from windows. At Pontedera a boy,
Is years old, died from fright.
Panic prevails at Lucca as a result
of the cataclysm and from Gavinani
and Limestre come reports Of lives
being lost. At Villa Franco, in Luni-
giana, an entire family was buried in
the ruins Of their home and the viii
lage OF Vigetta vas entirely destroyed.
The population terror stricken, fed

NORTH ROAD OFFICIAL

The State Highway commission has
definitely designated the north road
to Volga as the official state highway
instead Of the road now in use. The
south road was designated by the
county commissioners as the official
county road and it was expected that
the state would also make it the state
highway but a petition was presented
to the state commission asking that
the road be changed to the north
route and this petition was granted
The citizens of Volga are not pleased
with the change and many others be.
lieve that the south road is the better
Considerable money and labor have
been spent on the south road this
summer.

FOOTBALL PROSPECTS BRIGHT

Captain Jim Salisbury of the State
college 1920 football squad has re-
ported early to help Coach c. A. West
get matters arranged for a preseason
training camp which starts September
II. and to which all prospective foot
ball players are cordially invited, both
new and old.
Jim is heavier than ever and says
he feels ever better than he did last
fall. There isn't much doubt Of his
being well able to take care Of left
tackle on the State team this fall.
Jim was UNANIMOUSLY chosen as an all
state tackle last fall. Besides being
a good athlete. Salisbury is a good
student and his good judgment and
fellowship was awarded by the stu,
dents last spring with their election of
him as president of the students as
ISOLATION.
Practically all OF last years football
stars, with the exception of those who
completed their college course last
June, have signified their intention to
be back at State college this fall.
Roberts and Willasden are both eager
to don the moleskins again confident
that they are in much better condition
this fall than they were last year.
The football prospects would indi-
cate that 1920 will be a banner year
for State college athletics. The sue
cess of the football and basketball
teams last year has attracted a large
number Of the graduating high school
athletes of this state as well as some
promising material from Minnesota
and Iowa. Most Of these men will
take agriculture while a few will take
engineering and pharmacy.
Last season State won the football
championship Of North and South Da-
kota and the state basketball cham
pionship and stood second best in the
state in track and field sports. West
is planning an intercollegiate tennis
tournament to be held at State college
next spring in addition to the usual
interclass and military sports.

greatest part of the credit for their
victory. He weakened a bit toward
the last of the game and was touched
up freely, but not enough to endanger
the game. Higgins hurled the game
for Brookings, but did not seem to
be up to his usual form. The game
was marred by a serious accident
which occurred in the eighth inning
when Conway, the Brookings star left
fielder, broke his right leg while slid
ing into third base.
In Tuesdays game, Brookings got
revenge upon Flandreau, by defeating
them 16 to 5, in a very poorly played
game. Tomorrow the Bookings team
will cross bats with Pipestone.
