HERALD LOST AID
BRINGS RESULTS

Wednesday evening the neigh
borhood surrounding the Ivan
Munro and Roy Ogle homes on
Dawson street found cause for
alarm and excitement in the dis
appearance of two little girls,
Laurel Jean Munro and Betty
Wendt, and 4 respectively. The
town was strange to Betty as she
came from Brockway only that
day with her mother to visit at
the Ogle home The children had
been playing in the alley south
of the Munro and Ogle homes.
Darkness came on and when they
started for home they passed the
houses they were looking for and
soon lost their bearings. They
kept wandering and hunting for
home till they got five blocks
from where they belonged But
they must have travelled far more
than that distance for they were
missing from home more than an
hour
Enter, The Heroine
1t finally chanced that isis"
Fromdahl, out in her yard, noticed
the forlorn little strays near the
corner of Fifth and Fairweather
Sis gathered them in and brought
them to the Marshall home to
get them put in the Lost" col
umn. Newspaper folks are sup
posed to know everybody and sure
enough Mrs. NJ recognized Laurel
Jean, whose daddy is employed
at the Herald office So they
were taken home where they were
wildly welcomed by Betty's moth
er and a big crowd of neighbors.
Mr.. and Mrs. Munro were out in
the dusk of night somewhere
and calling. Finally the
good news was passed around to
the police, the telephone operator,
the fire department and the miss
ing parents and it seemed quite a
Joke. But it was no joke before,
for Betty who had had
no supper.

NORTHERN "U"
UNIT IS FACT
HAV RE CITIZENS SUCCEED
AFTER LONG CAMPAIGN
FOR COLLEGE
(Havre Daily News)

The efforts of sixteen years on
the part of a determined group
of northern Montana citizens have
borne fruit at last in the definite
establishment of unit of the Uni
versity of Montana at Havre. The
delegation from Havre and other
northern Montana points arrived
home this morning, happy over
the success of their efforts to Sc
cure assurance from the State
Board of Education that college
work would be started at Havre
this fall.
The bitter opposition that had
been feared to the school did not
materalize when the misunder
standing ana confusion as to the
status of the school were cleared
away at the conference yesterday
afternoon. The confusing title
given the school here originally,
Northern Montana Agricultural
and Manual Training school, did
not explain the purpose of the ap-
preparation made by the legisla-
ture for the institution here. Two
years ago the legislature provided
that academic courses could be
taught in Havre instead of out at
Fort Assinniboine. The appropri-
alton for the school this winter
provides that the first two years
of academic work be given at
Havre.
When the board convened at
two o'clock Monday afternoon a
delegation of over twenty-five
men from different parts of north
ern Montana appeared on behalf
of the northern Montana institu-
ton. Frank Bossuot of Havre,
who is one of the local board for
the Northern Montana Agricultur
al and Manual Training school,
acted as chairman of the delega-
ton and introduced the members
of the delegation. Senator w. t.
Cowan of Box Elder, Senator John
Survant of Malta, Senator Porter
OF Big Sandy, Senator Plank of
Chester, Representative E. P. Exc
gren of Harlem, Representative
Peter Rigg of bingham and W. B.
Sands of Chinook spoke for the
establishment of the school this
fall at Havre.
The members of the board ask
ed many questions as to the
courses to be given, the law in
regard to the location of the
school, and other details as to the
school. The chancellor explained
the course of work that would be
provided under the appropriation
and the estimates of expenses nee
essary to give the first two years
of college work here during the
C oming two years. Governor
Erickson and Superintendent
Ireland also contribut-
ed toward clearing up some mat
ters in regard to the school.

JOE ALVAREZ IN AGAIN

Joe Alvarez of Poplar, who is
in Jail on one charge or another
periodically, was arrested last
Saturday and brought to Wolf
Point for sake keeping 1t is un-
derstood that the charge was
preferred by Supt. Eggers. ALI
varez was out on parole, having
been sent up from Scobey, it is
understood, on a horse stealing
charge. Some time ago he was
paroled on good behaviour, but
his actions constitute a violation
of parole and he will probably be
sent back to Deer Lodge.

James Cruze made special
trip from Hollywood, California,
to Tripoli, Africa, that he might
obtain first hand view of the
locale in which the story takes
place.
Twelve days on the high seas
were spent by the "Old Ironsides"
company searching for terrific
storm for the production.
An exact duplicate of the frig-

Four complete cities were erect

were: Salem, Massachusetts;
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Trip

city covering an area of two
square miles.
The hero in "Old Ironsides" is

Practically no makeup was
used by the featured cast of
Esther Ralston, Wallace Beery,

Eight months were spent pre-
pairing and filming the battle of
Tripoli Bay for the photoplay.
The entire encounter, as it actual
ly took place in 1904, is pictured
in every detail.
An entirely new type of motion
picture camera, constructed so
that it will photograph the rolling
motion of a vessel without itself
being subject to any movement,
was invented for use in filming
the battle scenes upon the Pacific
ocean for "Old Ironsides."

HOOVER MAKES

SPEED IN HANDLING
PROBLEMS

Washington. Herbert Hoover
finished his first month as presi-
dent of the United States We'd
nesday night leaving behind him
a record of action seldom equalled
by new executives in the White
House. He has made major de-
cisions with rapidity and boldness
that have left the national capital
almost breathless.
The bare catalogue of the ac-
tivities of the new administration
is impressive here where business
usually moves at snail's pace.
Reorganization of the republican
party in the south has been under
taken.
Publicity of tax refunds has
been ordered
The Mexican government has
been supported in it's efforts to
suppress the rebellion.
Drilling for oil has been stopped
on government land.
First moves in an appeal for
law enforcement have been start
ed and Washington society, long
scornful of prohibition, appears to
be going dry in some eminent
spots, out of difference for the
presidents views.

House horses have been turned
back to the army.
Business Basis
The White House Offices have
been put on business basis with
three presidential secretaries, and
telephone has been installed on
the presidents desk as a time
saver
Time-costing recreation has
been abolished and the president
has introduced the medicine ball
to intimate friends who gather be-
hing the White House every morn
ing for brisk workout
Handshakers have been cut
down fo the minimum to conserve
the presidents time.
The president has decided to
forego making many addresses
such as those to the Red Cross
and the Daughters of the Ameri-
can Revolution which his prede-
cessors regarded as obligatory.
He has directed that his military
and naval aides should have desks
at the White House and do some
thing besides drink tea and enter
tain Mrs. Hoover's guests.
Secrecy Abolished
Much of the secrecy around the
White House press conferences
has been abolished and the presi-
dent has become the first of
modern presidents to talk for
quotation to the press.
All of which has been possible
because Mr.. Hoover came to the
White House thoroughly trained
Tor his job, having been member
Of the presidents cabinet for
eight years. He had to waste no

Terrific SIugging Puts New

BN ufffQ Press
NEW YORK. May 7.-American
League fans turned their eyes today
to St. Louis, where the New York
Yankees and St. Louis Browns,
rival pennant contenders, were TO
open a three-game series.
After a haphazard start against
eastern teams the Yankees have
found their batting eyes out west
and are driving headlong for first
place.
In the National League the Chi
cago Cubs see a chance to gain first
place at the expense of the Brook
lyn Robins while the Boston Braves
and St. Louis Cardinals are cutting
each others threats.
Two straight defeats at the hands
Of the Pirates has taken some of
the heart out of the Braves and the
spring squirt of the Boston club may
be nearing its end.
While the American League race
is settling down to a three-club
affair between the Athletics,
Yankees and Browns, with the
Tigers as an outsider, the National
League race is daily becoming a
more open affair. OnI- three and
a half games separate tn Braves in
first place from the Phillies in last
place.
Setting the stage for the Yankees
downfall seems to have been q bit
premature considering their showing
against the White SoX. Yankee
sluggers ran amuck against White
SOX pitching. In three games the
YankS made 26 runs and = hits:
nine home runs, two triples, six
doubles and twenty-three singles
for total of seventy-seven bases.
