freshman forwards = Carey, Colby,
Morris, Jackson and Norvold - are
putting up lively scrap for a job
on the first squad with the first
three having the call for the position
opposite "Nick" for Friday night.
Hert:ng, all-conference guard of last
year, is the same old reliable Lemme

opener.
Other men who will probably see
service are Dehnert, guard; Dennis,
guard; Lowe, guard; Parks, for

Chancellor, center; and Tjostem,

START FRIDAY
Will Meet Columbus Mariners
Engelmann Bothered With
Hurt Knees

Brookings, s. D., Dec. 12.- The
1928 basketball machine at South
Dakota state college was put into
high gear this week in preparation
for their opening game with the
powerful Columbus squad here Fri
day night.
Coach Edmonds drove his squad
lof 20 men through a long session
tonight working on fundamentals
and on a new style Of 'offense. Ed
monds is going to try an offense
designed to cope with the five-man
zone defense. Although he has had
little time to perfect it, he is going
to test it in the Mariner game.
I Krug and Englemann, veteran
guard and center, have had little
chance to recover from their hard
football season and will not be in
the best basketball shape Friday
night. To meet this emergency, Ed
monds has shifted Captain Schaefer
from forward to guard. "Schaef" is
a superb floor man and may make
an ideal running guard. If he works
IN well IN tne DacK court JOD, krug
may be shifted to forward where his
height and steadiness would be very
valuable.
Hamann, star frosh center of last
year, has been used at the pivot job
in the absence Of Englemann and is
showing to good advantage. Engle-
mann's knees have bothered him
since the football season, and the
big boy who ran so wild on the grid
iron has only been out for two or
three practices. He is being counted
on strongly, however, and will prob
ably play some against Columbus.
Only one veteran forward remains
in the person of Nicholson. Nick is
showing the same speed that made
him so dangerous last year and he

grade tests were made early in the
harvesting season for combine
owners. Due to the very dry early
part Of the growing season, most of
the grain was thin. But later, about
June 10, when heavy rains fell, most
OF the weed seeds in the fields also
grew and, as result, most fields
were weedy. These green weeds,
where combines were used, usually
made high moisture content. The
wheat was ripe but the weeds were
green. Some of the first combine
samples tested as high as % to %
per cent moisture, but when the
weed seed was taken out, the
moisture, usually was reduced
to II and Is per cent. Where
the elevators had cleaners, this
wheat was all cleaned Immediately
and shipped. None of this heated,
although most of it sold as sample
grain. Where elevators had no
cleaning machinery, farmers had to
let the wheat stand till the weeds
also were dry. One combine owner
bought his own cleaning equipment
and attached it to the combine.
This method seemed to be sue
cessful and, from talks with combine
owners, numerous others are going
to install that same equipment in
1929. This method was still more
successful, because the grain could
be cut as soon as it was fit to cut
with q binder. Left on the ground
for about six days. it threshed out a
very fine quality wheat, with appar-
emily no loss in the field.
In cooperation with the Agricul-
tural college cost records were kept
on three combines in the county.
These combines did custom work as
well as work for the owners. Re-
ports on these machines are not
available at present, but will be in
time to be Of value to prospective
combine purchasers in 1929.
THE combine owners generally in
the county appreciated very much

This en- ire subject has been brought

Roylan Of New York providing for the
appointment Of a committee Of five
members OF the House to make q thor

prisoners both in Federal and local

When the first United States Con-

laws for the punishment of offenders
against Federal statutes. but the new
Government had no prisons and no
money with which 10 build them. Con-

enact laws permitting the confinement
of Federal prisoners in their local
prisons: "the United States to pay for

Fer so years the Federal Government
had no prisons Of its own Then. in

Wash. for prisoners awaiting trial, be-
cause no suitable lsils were available
on the Pacific Coast. In recent years
the Government has built a few small
jsils in Alaska for the same reason
With these exceptions the United States
has never hao any jails, but has made
