eral, that it is a serious contender
for the District 20 championship, by
scoring "a to % victory on Gaylord's s

To end the game Corbett tossed a
good shot making the count % each.
The overtime period was fast; Gay
lord was awarded a chance via the
free throw route and made good,
making the count % to %. Bravin-
der sunk the last score to win the
game.

field goals and a pair of single mark
ers. Corbett had two field goals and
free throw to his credit while Cap
tain Worsech made two field goals.
Johnson, Bravinder and Finn were
each awarded field goal while

throw trials, counting a out of II at
tempts, while Gaylord gathered Z out
of 10 trys. Peterson kept his average
up with out of 2. Arnett / out of

Adjourn Again From Thursday
to Monday Night-FOrestry
Program Presented to Both
Branches.

The Gazette has been fortunate in
securing the legislative articles CT
Martin w. Odland each week that
the Minnesota legislature is in ses-
sion. The articles will deal with all
of the important news from the
capitol at this session, with the first
appearing below:
st. Paul, Mimi, Jan. 22.-When the
cats away the mice will play. The
cat isn't away just now, but the mice
will play anywhere, it seems. At any
rate, the Minnesota legislature
branches of adjourned from Thurs
day to Monday night at o'clock,
when it was in session for only a
short time Very likely, it would
have adjourned till this morning
Tuesday-but for the state constitu-
ton, which provides that the lawmak-
ers can't skip more than two days, ex-
elusive of legal holidays.
AS result of this dilly- -dallying the
legislators will have to work over
time, under high pressure, during the
closing days of the session-which
means that bills will be voted up or
down without adequate consideration;
that ,ill-digested laws will be put on
the statute books, and many things
left undone that should have been
done.
Every legislature acts this way. 1t
seems to be a habit that can't be
broken, in spite of good resolutions
adopted when the sessions draw near
the end

Legislators are Making a
SloW Start, Says Writer

About 200 bills have already been
introduced in the two houses. Over
half of these are so-called "local bills"
and curative acts, of no interest to
the people at large. Perhaps the most
important measure so far presented
are IL bills prepared by the interim
commission of senators and represen-
tative appointed two years ago to
study the question of reforestation in
Northern Minnesota. These bills set
out very comprehensive program
and are worthy of the most serious
consideration of the legislature. One
of them provides for a thorough
survey of the forest area and for
recommendations as to the best use
to be made of state-owned lands in
that region. Another provides for re-
funding drainage bonds in the sum Of
S3,00O,000, while third imposes a
special tax for financing a plan of
reforestation.
Some of these bills will doubtless be
amended, but it is safe to assume that
most, if not all, of them will pass,
backed as they are by most of the
legislative leaders and the governor.
l shall discuss them more fully later
when they are debated on the floor of
the house and the senate.
Talking about the governor, let me
say here that he has undoubtedly won
his fight against the proposed $40,
100000 highway bond issue. The high
way construction plan he presented in
his message seems to meet with the
approval of almost the entire men,
bership of the legislature, regardless
of the past attitude of the members
toward the governor personally and
the opinions they may have expressed
