SIOUX FALLS IS
GIVEN DRUBB|NG
BAPTIST COLLEGE NO MATCH
FOR STATES BASKET
BALL TEAM
WEST AND ENKE EACH HAVE A TEAM
Prospects Are Bright for Greatest
Basketball Quint in South
Dakota History.

Sioux Falls college basketball team
could in no way cope with State col
lege in the two opening games of the
season which were played at the col
lege armory last Friday and Saturday.
The Baptists were defeated 80 to 10
in the game Friday afternoon and SUI
fered a SO to Is defeat in the second
game. Coaches West and Enke used
seventeen men in these two games,
all OF whom gave a good account of
themselves. From the indications
shown in these two opening games, il
is apparent that West and Enke are
grooming the fastest basket tossing
Quint that ever was developed in the
state.
A two-team system for the present
basketball season is being worked out
by the coaches. Coach West has one
team and Coach Enke has the other
in charge. There will not be the usual.
first and second teams, but instead the
teams will rank more nearly equal, and
the plan is to give each team a certain
share of all games on the home floor.
Captain Lars Thune with his old
teammates, E. Thune, George Thomp-
son and Beans Carey, started both
games, with Clarence Schultz at
standing guard. In the first game
their work was somewhat ragged but
showed flashes Of better things to
come. In the second game the above
lineup, with Welch and Lee going in
at half time, looked as good as any
team could for this early in the sea-
son. The veterans of last year played
in good form, while Schultz shows
promise of making a good running
mate for Thompson. Lee and Welch
are developing rapidly and will be
able to work into States team play in
fine fashion.
George Patterson at center, Ross
Owens and George Roberts at forwards
and the Coffey brothers started the
second half and although they did not
show the polish Of the other lineup,
they made "a points to Sioux Falls
10. Kreger, Seeman, Burns and Doner
also got into the scrap for State.

SMALL BLAZE AT OYLOE'S

An overheated furnace was given as
the cause of the small blaze which
broke out last evening about 500
o'clock in Oyloe's studio. The wood
work in a partition lying next to the
chimney and above the furnace caught
fire and burned quite a while before
it was discovered. Prompt work on
the part of Mr.. Oyloe and the fire de-
partment with extinguishers brought
it under control. The loss caused by
the fire is practically negligible, but the
smoke may have damaged a consider
able amount of Photographic supplies
which are very sensitive.

WALKING
BACKWARD

Congressman Stevenson in re-
cent speechsin Congress gave these
specific instances wherein the
present Republican administra-
tion has walked backward in the
tracts of the previous Democratic
administration:
"WelI, we were to have all our
foreign policies reversed. Let us
see what we have done up to this
time about reversing the foreign
policy of this Government.
"On the question and rights of
this Nation in Mesopotamia the
policy of the Wilson administra-
tion is being absolutely followed
by the present administration.
GAS to the question of the rights
and policy of this Nation in the
Island of Yap, our present admin
istration is standing squarely in
the tracts made by the administra-
tion that preceded it.
"On the question of our dealings
with Russia, the present admins
tration has not veered an iota from
the administration that was before
it,
"On the question of cable con-
troll, this House unanimously pass
ed resolution to follow the lead
ership of the Democratic adminis-
tration on that very important
question.
"On the question of the treaty
with Columbia, whereby we rees-
tablished relations with the Gov
ernment of the United States of
Columbia, the administration sent
the treaty negotiated in 1916 bya
Democratic administration.
"The present administration has
followed the policy of the Wilson
administration in the matter Of
backing up the banks of this couns
try in making loan to China,
"It was one of the crying shames
Of the country, according to Re-
publicans, that General Pershing,
instead of General Wood, was sent
to France. Vet we fnd the pres
ent administration has endorsed
the proposition by making General
Pershing the chief of staff of this
country instead of the great and
, heroic General Wood. (Applause.)
