PERFORMANCE AT STAMPEDE

IN BRONC RIDING
CONTEST

Twas a great show! Living up
to the numerous slogans OF past
and present years, the Ninth An
nual Wolf Point Stampede was all
that could be desired in the nature
of a three-day session OF enter
tainment, rife with spirit of the
West of past and present years.
Truly, the local Stampede is "One
of Montanas Big Shows"
Coming out of chute number
two on Hard Luck in the finals OF
the bronc riding contest Saturday
afternoon, Jimmie Nesbit, of Nc
Loughlan, S. D., rode his mount
into first place. This ride, though
not as spectacular as some. gave
the large crowd thrills aplenty as
the bronc rider-bull dogger-clown
sent the rowels of his spurs back
and forth over his mount from
flank to shoulder. The scoring of
the Judges for the three days rid
ing gave this buckaroo the highest
average, and with it the final
purse of 500.
Tie for Second
Jack Tracy of Billings, winner
of the 1928 show here and a popu-
lar favorite, split second final
money with Allen Gordon of Wolf
Creek. Tracy rode Wiggley Roam

MEMORIAL BELL
DEDICATED SUN.
MRS. MARY MOORE PRESENTS
BELL TO LUTHERAN
CHURCH

Services were held in the First
Lutheran church last Sunday, July
IA, in dedication of the bell pre-
sented to the church by Mrs. Mary
Moore of this city, in memory of
her son Robert.
DR.. C. M. Weswig of Luther
Theological Seminary of st. Paul
addressed the congregation at the
morning service. Following this
sermon the bell was dedicated
with fitting ceremony. The local
pastor spoke a few we'll chosen
and appropriate words in appre-
citation of Mrs. Moore's splendid
memorial gift. A vocal duet sung
by the Misses Ruth and Liffie
Fossen and al anthem by the
church choir completed the morn
ing program.
Mrs. Moore was greatly touched
by the manner in which her gift
had been received, and by the
kind words spoken in mention of
her son. To her, the lovely ser
vice brought back sorrowful mem
cries, rendering her unable to
express her appreciation of the
beautiful tributes paid her deceas-
ed son.
Afternoon Program
At 2:30, Rev. w. A. Amoth of
Froid opened the afternoon SER
vice with beautiful address on
the young peoples work in the
circuit. He extended an invita-
ton to the congregation to attend
the convention of the Northeast
ern Montana Luther League con-
vention to be held at Froid July
1928. He especially stressed the
invitation to the young people.

livered by Rev. Weswig of st.
Paul. He touched on the church

New Currency Now
At Local Banks

The Wolf Point banks recently
received a quantity of the new
currency and it is now in circula-
ton in the city. During the past
week it has been introduced into
many hands. Many prefer it to
the old size, although there are a
few who deem it inconvenient.
Being smaller, the new bills are
less bulky when folded and fit
better into a bill fold.

KICK ON AIR FROM WOLFPOINT
FOR FIRST Time TUESDAY NIGHT
BERT HOOPER OF REGINA
HERE TO INSTALL RADIO
STATION

Where's the bypass condenser,
did you get that 80 Henry plate
! choke, give me that milliameter
/ and high c tank. Where in the
deuce is that therom-coupled radio
! frequency ammeter." And with
out looking, when you heard these
words in the Westland Station
I KGCX, you recognized by that
familiar voice that Bert Hooper
of CKCK, Regina, was in town.
Mr.. Hooper arrived in town
Sunday evening in company with
Pilot Holmes of the Moth for
few days visit at the Ed Krebs-
bach home. In very few minutes
he was lending his expert radio
knowledge in the supervision of
the installation of the broadcast
ing mechanism of the local sta
ton. Piece by piece, the many
small, but important, accessories
that are required to build broad
casting plant, went into their
proper place with the deftness
that only experience breeds.
First Message
At seconds past 1873 Tues
day night, after hours of work
that ran far into the night and
sometimes the next morning, the
station building was completed.
A test was made and those who
were tuned in heard, "Oh, boy,
she's on the air" come in as the
first message from KGCX from its
Wolf Point location with Hooper
announcing Final details of as
sembly are being completed and
frequent tests made to assure
that each and every part is func-
tioning properly.
While definite plans are not
available, Manager Kre b S b C h
states that the formal opening will
be broadcast in about week.
KGCX will operate on wave
length of 1910 kiIocyc1es or 22O
meters. Its approximate range is,
daylight 250 to 800 miles; night
range 1900 to 1000 miles.
Working under Mr.. Hooper's in
st-uctions were Chas. Hamblin,
Ted Holmes, Ed Krebsbach, man.
ager of the station, and Dallas
Jensen.
Mr. Jensen is a new arrival in
the city. He has been secured by
Mr.. Krebsbach as operator. He
is a licensed broadcast man and
experienced, coming here from
Kalispell. Mr.. Jensen will also be
employed locally at the Coffey
store. Mr.. Krebsbach will con-
tinue as manager and announcer.
Hooper an Expert
Mr. Hooper, known in his own
province as "the man with the
genial voice" is one of the highest
rated transmitter designers in
America He has been radio
operator for 13 years, three of
these being in San Francisco as
a ship transmitter to the Orient.
He has assembled many broad
casting plants, including the Re-
gina Leader-Post station CKCK.
He has been with CKCK for seven
years.
While in Wolf Point, Bert, as
his hosts of friends affectitonately
call him, was beseiged on every
hand by those who have tuned in
and heard his programs. He ex-
pressed the regret that time did
not permit more sociability with
his friends. Contrary to the i'm
preston held by many, Bert is
not large man in size. He is
medium short and moved with a
;prightly step. and does not, as
some insist he should, wear a
,lack mustache.

three thousand saw the closing
performance. Combined gate and
grandstand receipts were, Thurs
day, sS57.3O; Friday, $1,S9S.4O;

cial standpoint the show is also

deficit of last years stampede will
be wiped out.
Interest in the race program this
wear was keen. New horses, more
