BOUGHT INTO BAD MESS
A little more than two years ago
the American Bank and Trust COM
panv purchased the Cascade bank of
this city. Business conditions were
at that time reasonably prosperous.
The purchase was made to enable a
larger banking house operating in a
wider field. The American bank was
a young and ambitious institution. In
this consolidation quite a heavy bur-
den was taken ON. All might have
been we'll if times had been better and
il the general business depression Of
the whole country had not been pro-
longed.
The unexpected happened. Bad
crop conditions followed. The stock
industry suffered one Of its worst
winters. Payments have been SO slow
upon maturing paper that it finally
became apparent to the executive Of
fcers of the American bank that it
could not realize fast enough upon its
assets to meet current demands. The
bank did not open its doors Saturday
morning.
WILL PAY DEPOSITORS
According to the last published
statement Of the American Bank and
Trust company, the amount owed to
depositors of all kinds was about
81 soc, 900. Over against this stands
the capital stock, the capital stock
liability, the surplus and the loans
and discounts, then totaling about
So 100000. On the face of this state
ment there is strong assurance for the
depositors that they will eventually
be paid in full Manifesty there can
be a large shrinkage in the loans of
the bank and still the depositors may
get all of their naoney. A canvass of
The bankers of the city reveals the
opinion that there will not be any
further banking trouble in Great
Falls at the present time.
It was stated Saturday evening by
R. P. Reckards, president of the bank,
that the margin of assets above the
liabilities is sufficient to insure full
repayment to all depositors. Deposits
on the day of closing totaled 81 ,200,-
900, in round figures, and the banks
debts are approximately S55O,OOO,
making the total liabilities about 81,
10000. The assets total $4,000, ,OOO
to which will be added an amount
equal to the $685. capitalization If
the other property is not sufficient.
The stockholders are liable to the

event the assets are not sufficient to
meet the liabilities.

PLENTYWOOD WINS
FROM BAINVlLLE
Plenty Wood High School Team Wins
From Bainville H. S. In Thrilling
Game-ScOre II to Is.
1t was some game,

WdS oOIAC
Last Saturday evening the Com
munity hall in this city was the
scene Of one Of the closest and most
exciting basketball games in the his
tory of Plentywood. It was a thrill
er from start to finish.
Bainville has a good basket ball
team. You have got to hand it to
them. The boys are Of nearly even
size and all are of fine physique
They play a fast clean game and
show that they have been practicing
hard for their contests.
Too much cannot be said of the
game put up by the Plentywood boys.
They played basket ball from start
to finish. Against odds that seemed
insurmountable, they played with the
energy and stamina which is bound
to win. It was Plentywood's first
game with a rival school basketball
team and considering the fact that
there was no basket bali team in this
city last year, they show the effect
of hard training and coaching in the
way they handle and pass the ball
which was remarkable. The Plenty
wood team had a little hard luck in
finding the basket at times while the
Bainville team had uncanny luck in
long shots, or are experts in this
line.
The first half Of the game looked to
the observer as though the Plentywood
team was going down to defeat. the
first half ending with a score of
Is to Z in favor of Bainville. But
with change in the Plentywood line
up in the second half, different
story was told and perceptible
change took place, one of the most
noticeable being that the ball was
kept near the Plentywood goal most
of the time. The last half was even
more hotly fought than the first, and
the Plentywood team steadily gained
on their opponents, finally gaining
the necessary point to assure victory
just shortly before the whistle blew
which announced the end of the game.
The lineup was as follows:
Plentywood Bainville'
Flick 1. r R;Iaaean
S. Moe. C Define.
B: Pierce R. G.. C. seel
L.. Garneau L. G. Beardy
Summary: Field goals, Aspergen i,
Blladeo ., Bolster 8, Moe 3, Flick g.
Foul goals: Aspergren 4, S. Moe, 2.
Referee: A. Reuber.
A good crowd was present and no
doubt helped to encourage the boys
to DO their best. At times the root
ing OF the. fans could be heard for
a long distance as the willy ball found
It's place through the net. After the
game dance was held in the
Community Hall which was attended
by a large number, the Novelty Four
furnishing the music.
The Plentywood team will play the
fast Outlook team next Friday, De-
cember 10th.

YANNIGANS WIN
BLOODY BATTLE;
TEA is SERVED

The football championship OF
tea danseurs Of the university was
won by the Nannigaus yesterday
afternoon by the score of : to 6.
The Uooligans made their only
score when Civerolla, weight g.
pounds, ] . ounces, carried the bail
in brilliant run of almost half Il
mile.
The Hooligans started the gam
with a rush, landing on the Yam
nigan's thrce-yard line soon after
the kick off, but unusually clever
work of the Yannigans was unfor-
tunately seen by the referee ana
they We're penaliZed half the dis.
lance to their goal. Tho HoOiigans
failed to push the spheroid over
the line, and the Yannigans be-
came offensive.
Line plunging by the Yannigans
won them yards and submarine
play under a pile of Scrimmagers
gave them their first touchdown.
1t became evident soon after that
If the Hooligans were to have a
chance they must add weight to
their bacEfield, so Civerolla was
swamDed and shortly got through
the line, straight-armed Bill Roy
tripped Jack Jelfs, and dashed
down the side lines FOR a touch
down. The Hooligaus failed %
kick goal, however and tea was
served in honor of the Yannigans.
