Of several flies buzzing in the ointment

be in covering losses incurred when
the new owner washes out" in early
attempts to land. Finance companies,
which add IL per cent to the purchase
price, are reported to be solving this
problem through insurance. The manu-

ATTACK ON RADIO
BOOKING LAUNCHED
Open Fight Is Threatened on
Demand for Pay for Full
Programs.

Announcing his role of trust buster"
to the Federal Radio Commission,
Henry A. Bellows, managing director of
Station WCCO, Minneapolis, and for
mer radio commissioner, threatens to
bring into the open a battle that he
indicated has been waged behind the
scenes, involving the legal right of
chain broadcasting stations, requiring
them to subscribe to the full program
services or nothing.
His attack is leveled primarily at the
National Broadcasting Co., with which
his station is now aligned. He con-
tends that the chains are public Serv-
ice corporations and that all broadcast
ing stations are entitled to their pro-
grams if they pay regular rates. But
the main broadside is that every sta
ton has the right to select any portion
of the chain program it pleaseS and
pay for only that much, rather than
to be required to subscribe to the entire
program service day in and day out"
Stipulates Amount.
"The past policy of the chains, both
Columbia and National" he said, has
been based on the conviction that they
are no more public service corporations
than are theatrical booking agencies.

the N. B. @. or the Columbia will ac-
cede to his piece meal" proposition
also is problematical But should either
one agree it unquestionably would open
the way for other broadcasters to seek
similar treatment.

Heavy Expense.

"since the chain systems must pay
for the land lines linking stations,
whether they are used full time or not,
the expense is heavy, and forces the
chains to demand full use OF the lines" ;"
he continued.
"Yet another factor is that the chain
must have a definite thing to sell radio
advertisers and guarantee certain
listener coverage. II statlons subscribed
onlv tn the portions of chain programs
at will then the system would not be
able to enter into contracts for stabilized
service"
The outcome of Mr.. Bellows evident
determination to break down the pres
ent system remains to be seen. Whether

PRESBYTERIANS USE
METHODIST CHURCH

The Sunday school of the Pres
byterian church has become so
large that it has outgrown its ac-
commodations. During the past
school year the Sunday school
grew rapidly and new classes had
to be organized. The goal of
membership was set at $50 and
then moved forward to 175 and it
is fully expected that the next
yea: viii see an enrolment OF .oa
This being the case II was nee
essary to look for accommodation
ard the local trustees Of the NJ. i.
cllch readily gave permission for
the building to be used by the
Presbyterian people. To quite
few childen in the Sunday school
it will be like going back home,
for not a few of them were origi-
nally members of the Me. Sun
day school.

FINANCIAL STATMENT

Not only did the Great Falls
rodeo this year clear S65.76 on a
balance of receipts and operating
expenses, but paid for S1,430.10
of permanent equipment which
will reduce the costs next year,
according to a preliminary finan-
cial report submitted to the ex
ecutive committee of the Chamber
of Commerce Wednesday noon by
Will Steege, chairman Of the ro-
deo committee.
Actual receipts were S23,035.56.
representing s20,947.65 taken in
at the gates, S1,67O.O1 from con-
cessions, s412.9O entrance fees and
a contribution of S5. Total dis
dursements were s24,399.S7, but
deducting from this the s1,490.10
to capital investment,
the cost was s22, 2,969.77 for this

ing that the rodeo should feKaiD

close that with only of the rs

ference of only two between the

there was a heavy fall of hail, but
no account of this has been seen

the next morning. The Great

Much favorable comment has
been heard this week from those
who have been attending the
Chautauqua programs. Beginning
with the comedy "Applesauce'
Monday evening and continuing
until Thursday evening when the
Music Box revue concluded the
program, a fine line of varied en-
tertainment features were present
ed.
The audiences were not so large
as they would probably have been
had it not been for the fact that
the Chautauqua came immediate
ly after the Stampede, and for the
further fact that heavy rains the
first of the week made the roads
difficult to travel.

OBRECON, MEXICO
is ASSASSINATED
PRESIDENT ELECT FATALLY
SHOT WHILE AT BAN
QUIET TUESDAY

MEXICO CITY, July 17.-Gen-
eral Alvaro Obregon, president
elect of Mexico, was assassinated
today while at a banquet in the
town of San Angel, 12 miles south
of Mexico City. The assassination
took place at about two o'clock.
While Obregon was seated at the
table young man in his twenties,
Juan Escapulario, approached the
table and pretended to show Obre-
gon some newspaper cartoons.
When he was within a foot or two
Of Obregon he shot him five times
through the body with a 45 cali
bre pistol Obregon died almost
instantly. The horror-stricken
friends of the General rushed at
the slayer and for a time it seem
ed that he would be torn to
pieces. However, cooler heads
prevailed and the young man was
taken to jail under a heavy guard.
The rumor spread rapidly and a
large crowd gathered in front of
General Obregons home, where
his body had been conveyed sec
reilly from San Angel
Z Several attempts have recently
been made on the generals life.
Bombs were hurled at him last
November He escaped unscathed
except for a few scratches on his
face. His headquarters in Mexico
City were bombed twice recently.
Mexico City was thrown into
the utmost turmoil and political
excitement and uncertainty as the
report of the president-elect's as.
sassination spread.
1t is uncertain what effect the
assassination will have politically
II who will succeed president Cal
es. In some circles it is thought
hat the president may continue
Dffice for another term. This, for
he present, however, is only spec
lation.

With the largest number of en-
tries by champions and near
champions in the arena contests,
the best lot of speed horses, and
first class talent in all entertain
ment features, the Sth Wolf Point
Stampede provided the crowds
with the greatest 3-day rodeo
show ever offered at the local
grounds. This was the opinion
freely expressed by those who
witnessed the performances
Jack Tracy of Hamilton repeat
ed his achievement of last year
and again won the bronco riding
honors, usually regarded as the
top line event on the bill.
Howard Tegland, Miles City and
Hollywood, took second. He has
twice won the bronc champion
ship at Cheyenne, and was winner
of the same event at the inter-
national show at London.
Floyd Stillings, Marshfeld, Ore,
who has many wins to his credit,
got third money.
Al Garrett, Denver, was fourth.
Several Re-Rides
There was a long list of other
riders with well earned records of
wins who got close to the money
in this hotly contested event but
lost out through the turn of luck.
Re-rides were called for each day
to determine the winners

events were just as keenly con-
tested and required close marking
by the judges.
1t was the large number of high
quality features that made this
Stampede the great arena success
that it was voted. There were
the clowns who filled in all inter-
walls and missed no chance to
draw a laugh. First of these was
Overland Red with his high school
mule and his partner, Homer Hol-
comb and his baby horse. Then
there was Babcock. a local clown.
Overland Red
Overland Red says he got his
clown training with Ringling's
circus. He had his mule with
him then also for which the cir
Gus people offered him $1,000
when they left. He claims it is
the only mule in America rated
as high school" 1t is a genuine
Spanish mule with no horse blood
in its veins. Red got it in Hon
duras when it was at its mothers
side and began its training at
once. 1t is eleven years old, and
bears the name of Harold Lloyd.
Reds little running horse, Hobby,
that showed it's heels to most
everything in the races it enter
ed, won him S3400 on the 1927 cir
cults. Red says he recently bought
a ranch near Lewistown and in
tends to make a business of train
ing trick animals. He now has
three mules and several horses,
not to mention the little dog But
tons" Holcomb's home is at
American Falls, Idaho.
Compliments Rodeo
Overland Red paid a high comp
liment to the Wolf Point rodeo,
saying that he did not know where
in the country one could find a
small town rodeo Show that went
off smoother or that paid better
prizes.
The Band
Simon's 20-piece band was an
other feature that did its full part
in entertaining the crowd. Charles
Simon, director, did remarkably
well to get so good band togeth-
er at this time of the summer He
found it necessary to employ only
one out-of-town player, G. d.
Knapp of Culbertson. One or two
others voluntarily played with the
band for short periods, one Of
them being Dick Baker of Wibaux,
