MONTE OFF TO WEST POINT

Monte Martin, graduate Of Brook
ings high school in the class of 1920
and one of the best high school ath-
letes in the state, left Sunday morn
ing for West Point, ~ Y, where he
will enter the United States army NH
itary academy Monte was given the
appointment over a month ago in pref
erence to good many other young
men of the state. The mental, moral
and physical qualifications for en-
rance to the historic old school on
the banks of the Hudson are well
known and Brookings is deservedly
proud that it is the home Of young
man who qualified for the appoint
ment. The congratulations and best
wishes of the entire community are
heartily bestowed on Monte and it is
believed that Uncle Sam will soon
be as proud Of him as BroOkings is
now.

EXPECT DRAINAGE BILL

While it is not at all likely that the
special session will again take up the
drainage act which was defeated at
the regular session last winter, this
act or similar one will no doubt be
given consideration at the next regu-
ing from Pierre. The message goes
on as follows:
For the past three years the Sioux
valley has lost thousands of dollars
Jim river valley, while not suffering
to the extent of the Sioux valley, has
also been called upon to meet heavy
loss
drainage systems TO cover an entire
watershed, but the residents in the up
per Sioux valley made a fight against
the bill and defeated it.
Just at present the owners of land
in the Sioux valley are fighting local
drainage plan, which contemplates
Brookings county alone, and would IN
no way handle food waters from fur
ther up the river, except to hasten the
flow into counties lower down on the
stream.
In the series of lakes in the central
part of the state, including Poinsett
Norden, Preston, WhitewoOd and
Thompson, a storage system could be
established to hold practically the
food waters of the upper river, and
create a magnificent lake system in
that part of the state in locations now
principally sloughs, but meandered as
lakes.
This would be costly, but the loss
of crops in the Sioux valley for the
past three years would no doubt more
than meet the cost, and would in
crease the value of all land in that
valley.

that William G.. McAdoo's name was
not formally to be placed before the
convention which was verified by
McAdoo himself
L. S. G. Cherry of Sioux Falls, made
the nominating speech for James w.
Gerard, former ambassador to Ger
many. There is a strong coalition Of
party managers afoot to defeat Nc
Adoo. McAdoo still has, however, ex-
cellent chances OF being nominated
even though his name is not announc-
ed before the convention, since the
delegates may vote for anyone, no
matter il nominating speech has
been made or not. The platform COM

BOYS DEFEAT ROTARIANS

In a game full of sensations, Ted
Akin furnished the biggest surprise
of all when he caught a fly in the
center garden in the first half Of the
seventh inning of the ball game last
Tuesday evening at the fair grounds
received a thorough trouncing from
the boys team, all of whom were I'M
der II years of age. The Rotary club
team chalked up two scores in the
lead until the fourth frame when the
youngsters got into action and mark
ed up their third run. After that the
kids run away with things in general,
the final score being 8 to g. The first
part of the game was a veritable pit
cher's duel between Van Fishback
for the Rotarians and Sanders for the
junior nine John Sponsler was back
stopping for Van and Lien was catch
ing for the boy wonders. President
Willis Johnson, as shortstop, was one
of the snappiest players in the field
and always up on his toes. Bartling,
although guilty Of a few errors kept
the boys worried around the third
sack. A fairly large crowd of rooters
were present at the game and kept
up Il steady line of good naured ban
tering. The game was hugely en-
joyed by everyone and it is hoped that
there will be more like it in the fu-
ture w. H. Walters umpired the
game so successfully that nothing
was thrown at him.
The following men and boys com
posed the teams:
