BEARCREEk BEATS THE RED
LODGE HIGH MONDAY NIGHT

Bearcreek handed Red Lodge an
other beating at the local gym Mon
day night. Red Lodge was outplayee
throughout the game. Poderjay star
red for the locals in scoring, while
Kastelitz was next. Yanchisin, Vavich
and Freeman were mainstays on de-
Tense. Freeman and Yanchisin inter-
cepted many passes and made them
selves known otherwise. The game,
although success, as to the outcome,
was too one-sided to be interesting.
The last quarter found Red Lodge
playing their best game on the floor,
but had hard luck in finding the rim,
The final score was 29-9.
AS preliminary, the College All
Stars played the Bearcreek Indepen-
dents. The Independents won 22-13.
Murray, Persia and Bonovich starred
for the winners. While Freeman and
Noble made all of the All Stars points,
johnson, of Laurel, refereed both of
the games.

"pOI\TING WITH PR1pI

The annual report of the New Britain Institute was filed few days ago and being of a routine nature received little publicity. The report of Greta Brown showed the custom ary progress made during the year, new books constantly added 10 the fine local library, various depart 1ncnts enlarged and improved. the benefits yielded 10 school and high school students duly noted.
 The city is justified in harborlns pride in its library. As an institution it reflects the high cultural standards that the city has set for itself through it's admira bic public school system. The library is a busy place because it is giving good service to the community. It's staff is adequate, efficient and eager 10 please patrons.
 The supposition that less reading is done nowadays than at a former period does not hold water when the sef-evident activities of public libraries is taken into account. Thou sands of people in this and ever. other city where libraries flourish would have precious little oppor' tunity to keep step with the proccs sion Of volumes coming from th' presses were 1t not for the free loan! of books made by the libraries. Thi is particularly true Of nontictloi books, which despite the public de mand for tictional amusement main tain a healthy circulation.

\ GOOD NUTMEG LAW

The Connecticut law allowing d person charged with a major offcnsc to choose between trial by jury or by three judges is working well. The time- honored principle of a right to a judgment by ones peers is not in- tringed: but there is an additional right, one for trial by three men specially trained and experienced in the law.
 If the case is one where defense lawyers hope sentimentality may be an influence a jury probably will be preferred; otherwise it is more cx- peditious, and probably cheaper. to depend upon the impartiality of three good judges.
 Connecticut is not the only state with such law. It was first utilized in Maryland. It has always been q feature of jurisprudence of judicial procedure in tho British Empire. II gives to a defendant a choice that 1 he ought to have.

SOLVING \ MYSTERY

Detective stories remain popular. So do mystery stories. Sometimes we get them from real life." There is mystery as to who committed crime. widespread doubt as to the guilt or innocence of a person in the clutches of the law.
 Where human life is at stake no amount of theorizing can eliminate the natural interest of the public as to details. Some theorizers would eliminate accounts of sensational and mysterious murder trials from the public prints. But wherever they go they find the people discussing the situation.
 Dr. Guilfoyle in Hartford is the center of such interest just now. He is on trial for his life. He may lose or win 1t. He faces the most terrific gamble that human being can con- front.
 If somebody were to be suing at law for the possession of a billion dollars his case would attain univer- sal attention. Life is worth more than a billion dollars to it's posscssor.

 hearers q verbal illustration Of the results of hard thinking. She was talking Of panics. hard times, bread lines, and such unpleasant reminders
 of disiointed economics.

 power times are good, she said. But
 there was need for a little "xpana- ton, SO she made haste 10 add that even if times got bad during Re publican administration they would be worse were the Democrats in | power.

FORD IN BRAZIL

One of our foremost citizens, to wit, Henry Ford, has figured eX- tensively in Brazilian politics. Seems that politicians down there gave him a rubber concession in Para. Winch means that Mr. Ford has been granted vast amount of territory for the growing of the product need- cd in the outer extremitics Of Ford cars.
 Some newspapers in Brazil have "deplored" the granting Of such con- sessions 10 foreigners; they don't want Brazil to go through the eX- periencc of Mexico.
 But regardless of the talk in Bra gil now that the decd is done, MT Ford has the concession. If they ever start any monkey business down there they will hear from the Amer ican state department regarding the rules and regulations about protect ing American rights.

STREETS IN FALL RIVER

Fall River, where they had big fire a few months ago, has been sorcly beSct ever since regarding the respective merits of what should be done about widening the downtown streets around which property was leveled by the fire. Whenever such calamity strikes city the silver lln- ing in the cloud is that it yields an opportunity to do some important street widcninss. This opportunity in Fall River has been recognized by the public and also by citizens who have obtained long leases on proper ty desired and who expect the city to pay handsomely if advantage IS to be taken of the opportunity. Pub lie spirit in city is fine thing: but when it comes to grips with pri- >atc spirit the problem IS hard 10 solve.

THE PRESIDENT COMMENDED

President Coolidge is to be com the Mississippi flood control bill as passed by the Senate. The President favors flood control. but not the kind called for in the bill. That in itself would not merit general commenda- ton of the Presidents attitude. how ever. It is when he insists that the s325, ,ooo,ooo appropriated in the measure would not be half enough 10 carry out the provisions of the bill that one pauses to reflect if. after all, there is not something loose in it.
 The nation as whole favors flood control and if is fair to estimate that a ma ajority of the people agree that the federal government should con- troi the job and pay the costs, sec ing that the watersheds of so many states contribute to the level of the | lordly Mississippi. But if d bill is so loosely drawn that there is reason ! to think at least twice as much | money will be needed as is stipulated ill the bill. little more caution to i get things down correctly is needed. Army engineers who have been identified with trying to control the Mississippi heretofore have cstimat- cd that the Senate bill will cost a billion dollars more than it stipu- lates. They may be eNaeE"rating bit ill order 10 press point: but even if it costs half a million more wt should start in more definite man. ncr than the Senate bill calls for

CREATING \ VAST IRRIGATED TRACT

The Herald the other day printed a story which exhaustivcly treated of the proposed irrigation plan i'll the Columbia river basin Of the state of Washington. The plan would create farms out of q desert region as large a S the state of Connecticut.
 It is hard for an customer 10 realize that there is so much waste and barren land tucked away in q corner of a state which already 1s famed for what it grows.
 Irrigation projects, however, are costly. This one would entail the construction of canal Go miles long, tunnels 34 miles long, and the utilization of 40 miles of lakes. The cost of the project would be S30o,- ono, ,Ono: the federal government is asked for d loan of $50, ,o00.00o Then after ten years of work the 
 land would be sold at $157 an acre on "casy payments extending oNci 4o years.

 For Drinking Liquor

Moscow, April 19 R-Last year Russia spent on alcohol. one billion rublcs an amount equivalent 10 the expenditures on Soviet industry, Nickolai Bucharin. Soviet leader and

place there were only three sugges- tions made. Each suggestion was accompanied by a crash of cymbals and a blow on the drums, but they did not last long and nobody mis- took them for thunder. The gun was headed for Central Park. Willow Brook Park. and Walnut Hill park, before finally discovering room to park on McCabe's park. Somehow nobody thought of Stanley Quarter park, where the gun would have felt al home during the annual Fourth of July municipal shooting fest.
 We are progressing some when we can settle such a matter within two weeks.
 At McCabe's park the youngsters will have lots of fun playing with the gun, which fortunately will never be loaded.
