kADOKA SCHOOL BOARD
ELECTS SUPERINTENDE

The local school board after
casting about for some time for a
new superintendent for the Kad-
Okla Independent High School,
united on a man Wednesday after
noon, when they offered the posit-
ion to E. c. Green, who is this year
principal and coach of the Philip
high school. The Press under
stands that Mr.. Green has accepted.
The new superintendent is a
college graduate and has made a
very enviable record for himself at
Philip and the school board of that
place offered him a substantial
bonus for return to the same pos
ition next year. But Mr.. Green
desired to get into executive work
and thus happened to be candid
ate for the local high school.
Upon due investigation our school
board found him to be man that
had been singularily successful at
Philip and who held the good will
of all concerned at Philip. parents,
students as we'll as his fellow
teachers.
Mr.. Green's athletic record at
Philip is we'll known to our board
he whipping raw recruits into both
winning foot ball as well as basket
ball teams. The BOYS under his
charge love him dearly and hate to
see him part.
1t is expected that the new ex-
ecutive with his wife and two little
girls will move here the latter
part Of the summer if suitable
quarters can be found for them.

COUNTY FIELD MEET
A SUCCESS
Ideal weather brings large crowd
of youngsters to Interior, Weta
swamps all other contestants.

People young and old from aii
corners of the county motored to
Interior last Saturday TO enjoy the
hospitality Of the west end Jack
son county town. Interior had
planned for weeks to royalty enter
tain the youngsters and did SO in
fine shape and much cred it is due
the good people Of that town for
their part in making the county
meet success.
kadoka failed to gain a single
point because the rest of the con-
testants refused to go on with their
part when Russell Collins failed to
qualify in the oratorical contest
and since kadoka had no substitute
for him the other representatives
from the Kadoka schools refused
to enter.
This left the contest mainly to
Interior. Belvidere. Weta and Cot
tonwOod.
In the field meet the little town
OF Weta with it's live school pulled
down high honors winning sixty
out of possible hundred points
and is now receiving congratulate
ions for what she has done. That
school is the combined effort of
narent. pupil and teacher. Where
these three factors are harmonious
ly united, results are forthcoming
and the schools of such a COM
munitv are really and truly the
most important institution Of such
community and money spent in
such a place is not wasted. The
suns ravs. when shattered have
little effect, but burn when brought
to focus. Wetas efforts were in
telligently brought to focus and
the youngsters brought home the
bacon.
Belvidere captured the oratorical
prize for the third consecutive
time and will retain the prize.

FOOT AND MOUTH DISEASE HAS
NEVER BEEN IN so. DAKOTA

Brookings. S. d.. May 8th-Foot
and mouth disease, which within
the last few weeks has caused
much livestock loss in California,
has never yet been found in South
Dakota, according to DR.. G. G. Lipp,
director of animal health laboratory
at State College, who also express
ses the hope that it never will be
introduced into this state.
Among the factors responsible
for the states clean record with
respect to this disease are the fol-
lowing:
South Dakota is largely a pro-
ducing state. and most of the
traffic in livestock is outgoing.
Occasionally a few specialized
animals are imported. however, in
which case the purchaser should be
extremely careful to see that no
contagious or communicable dis
ease is PRESENT..
1t is noteworthy fact that the
South Dakota climate, feed and
care are also conductive to animal
health. The sunshine. pure air and
water. are important health fact
ors. Good feed is plentiful in the
state and the livestock men Of the
commonwealth know their animals
and are good husbandmen.
United Effort Necessary
Should the disease appear, which
is entirely within the realm of
possibility, and stringent precaut-
iOnary or eradicative measures be-
come necessary, it is of the utmost
Importance that everyone give
prompt and willing cooperation"
says DR.. Lipp. 1t is only by united
effort for the common good, re-
pard1ess Of individual opinions and
theories. that this disease can he
completely wiped out.
"Foot-and-mouth disease appear
ed in California within the last
few weeks Both federal and state
authorities became active at once
in their efforts to bring it under
complete and immediate control.
Several times it was believed to be
well in hand, but it later appeared
again. in some instances at con-
siderable distance from the original
outbreak. Animals recover in two
vi tilltc WtekS, anu are tnpn M
mune for several weeks. after
which they contract the disease n
second time. Death rarely occurs
except as caused by complications
hut the continued presence of the
disease reduces the milk flow and
thrift Of the animals to point
where they become Improbable.
No Cure or Treatment
There is no known cure or treat
meht in the form of medicines,
serums or vaccines. Due to this
fact. the only known method of
eradication is by the destruction
OF all diseased animals, the thoro-
ugh disinfection of barns and barn
lots, and the quarantine of infect
ed areas.
In past outbreaks many persons
have hindered and tried to OBJ
struct the work of foot-and-mouth
disease eradication. Such persons
are not familiar with the disease
and the annual losses we would
suffer. should it be permitted to
become permanently established
and it's future eradication made
impossible. Drastic as the eradicat-
i've measures are. they are the only
ones thus far found efficient"

NAVY HAS HEAVIER
eleven THAN ARMY

ANNAPOLIS, November %. A
glance at the weights of the Naval
Academy linesmen this year would
undoubtedly surprise those who have
become used to chasing that team
among the lighter college aggrega-
tions. AS matter of fact, there is
an abundance Of line candidates this
year weighing from $50 pounds to
well over 200.
The line Is considerably heavier
than that of the Army and of most
of the college teams in the higher
class. The Army. however. has older
most positions. Its regulars and sub
stitutes are not as heavy as those of
the Navy.
The Naval Academy can point to
the largest number of really big
men on its squad this year than it has
ever had in its foot ball history. and
this is true though two of the real
big men were lost since the season
opened. These are Clyde. 200 pounds.

pound left tackle. Osburn, center,

guard, weigh 1872 and 1856, respec-
lively.
Stolz, right tackle, is q husky youth
Of 1S9 pounds, and there are no less
than four substitute tackles who
weigh 100 pounds or over. They are:
Lambert, 1873; Truslow, 1913; Edwards,

In the meantime the Washington

ran wild whenever a certain out
fielder got the ball. They could not
guess why Detroit should run wild
on the only Washington outfielder
that had a sore arm. Why did they
single out the particular one that did
not have the power to throw to the
tnfield with any speed?
They could not understand why
Detroit base runners, who never took
chance on any catcher, suddenly
ran wild on the Washington catcher
who had intestinal trouble and was
slow in getting the ball away. No
one knew about it except the mem
bers of the Washington team.
Griffith finally suspected what was
happening. Walking into the club
