Valley City High School
Again Are State Champions

The dope was spilled again. Accord
ing to several of the supposed authen-
tic dope venders in the. state, Valley
City High School basketball team was
not. supposed to have even a look at
the cup to be presented to the state
champions, but just as we predicted.
Valley City was claiming nothing, but
working hard, and prepared "a nice
little surprise party for the other
teams of the state. At the beginning
of the season, Valley City was not con-
sidered formidable, even by local fans
but by careful and diligent coaching,
by Coach Fagin,f the Heam was. devel-
oped into state champions.
The game Saturday evening between
Grand Forks and Valley City, the two
teams which secured the right to par
ticipate in the finals, by eliminating
all other contenders was hard fought
one. Grand Forks played a five man
defense, but the attacks Of the two
Valley forwards and center were too
much. At the end of the first half
the score stood Il to 5 in favor of the
champs. -....
Grand Forks sstaged spectacular

they managed to make three tieldS

one more point on free throw, end

Valley City won the right to play
in the final contest by eliminating
Mandan in the morning semi; final con-
test, defeating Mandan in one OF the

ALDRICH
IS HELD UP

Holdup artists made Jack Aldrlch's
hair stand up straight abouta2 o'clock
this lnorning-that is what hair he
has on top of his head. He had been
up to, Sanborn and Eckelson with a
load of Masons who had been attend
ing the lodge meeting here last night.
A bunch of these Masons started down
here yesterday afternoon in car but
some thing or, the car broke and they
had to get Jack to take them back
early this morning. When coming up
the turn at the Berea bridge four
miles west Of town, just as he was
coming up onto the bridge. fellow
with powerful searchlight and a
gun came out of the bushes on one
side of the car and another fellow
came out on the other side and invited
Jack to stick up his handsN He obeyed
and the highwaymen looked into the
car, which had too dry an appearance
to suit them. and one Of them hit Mr.. :,
Aldrich on the back Of the head with
his gun and told him to get out, of
there. Now Jack is man of some
sense and is not near as inquisitive as
was Lots wife, of Bible fame, who
was told that if she looked back she
would be turned into pillar Of salt
he did not want to be turned into
dead man, so instead of looking back
he got on his way and kept going. The
highwaymen evidently were expect
ing car of booze to come through and
were laying for it and the disappoint-
ment must have been great. It they
had intended robbery all they had to
do was to go through Mr.. Aldrich's
clothes-taxi meh usually get the
money-and he had quite a good siz-
ed roll on his person to say nothing
d a diamond pin and other jewelry.
It was quite an experience all right
and we can only figure that booze was
the main object of the holdup.

Stranger has been lodged in the.

his possible connection with the

say that there is little evidence to
connect%him with the affair, but that
1t Is felt advisable to investigate him
carefully in order that no stone may;
be left unturned in bringing the mur-
derer to justice.

Further evidence in regard to re-

have made. which may connect him
up more fully with the affair, is ex-9

In the meantime it is known that

Auto Not Found.
No trace has been found so far AZ
is known Of the Ford automobile
stolen Monday night, and which it
was thought might have some ,connec-
ton with the murder. The officials
point out. however, that with the
road conditions which obtained Mon
day night and Tuesday it would have
been impossible for thieves to have
proceeded any great distance with the
car, and that it may be concealed
somewhere in the neighborhood of
Grand Forks. t..S
The situation as it exists at present
is that there is no evidence to justify
