proved popular. Each school puts on
. play at home and then gives the
performance at the other schools,
which gives the participants q chance
to do their stuff" before critical
audiences.
It was decided to continue with
boys and girls basketball. Last year
for the first time junior teams for
boys were formed. each player weigh
ing below lis pounds. This year the
schools win add other teams with the
players weighing between lis to 100
pounds. There also will be musical

LAYING WATER PIPE
UNDER HEART RIVER
Will Furnish Mandan City Water
to U. S. Experimental
Station

Workmen today were attempting to
install a water pipe under the Heart
river in Mandan to supply the u. 8.
Northern Great Plains Experimental
station during the winter with city
water.
Twelve men, under the direction Of
S. P. Ravnos, superintendent of the
city waterworks, were employed in
the task. The work is being done now
because the river is so low this year.
The plan is to dig a deep trench
across the river bottom and lay the
pipe, already welded, into the trench.
This system was tried before but the
work ended in failure because the
river was SO high it filled in the
trench repeatedly. Il
Last winter water was pumped
from the city through a pipe over the
river to the federal station. This
pipe, however. froze up often and
interrupted service.

Engineer Tells Of Disaster
s. Church, ar engineer on the ILL
fated British dirigible R-101, was able
to talk today despite his painful burns
and indicated that the airshtp was
afire before it nosed into the ground
near here early yesterday morning.

forward and observed then that the
ship, forced adrift by the wind and
almost turned end for end. was point

Il suddenly perceived that she was
afire, and a violent explosion which
followed at once threw me to the
ground"
Says Framework to Blame
Air-Commander Holt was stated by

MORTON DESIRES TO
MOVE FAMILY AWAY
Commissioners Declare Poor
Family Should Be Returned
to Oliver County

Morton county commissioners to-
day were expected to go before Judge
n. L. Berry, in Morton county dis
trict court, Mandan, to request that
the Burton Wilcox family, residents
of New Salem for almost a year, be
sent back to Oliver county.
The, commissioners planned to
make an appeal from a decision
made recently by q New Salem JUS
tice of the peace that the family be
permitted to continue residence in
Morton county.
The Wilcox family. consisting Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Wilcox and their IL
children. moved to New Salem from
Oliver county last Oct. %.
Because the family is poor, Nor
ton county commissioners believe the
family will appeal for aid from the
county after having been residents
Of Morton for one year. For this rea-
son. they argue, the Wilcox family
should be sent back to Oliver county,
whose duty 1t should be to furnish aid
for the family.

Brilliant Passing Attack Brings
Midgets Touchdown Near
Games End
Tribune Special Seryicel

Dickinson, N. D., Oct. 6.-Outplayed
only in receiving kicks, the Dickinson
Midgets went down to defeat Satur-
day afternoon by the score Of IL to 6
to the Mandan Braves.
Right from the Kickoff the Braves
appeared to advantage in the kick
ing game, Russell getting little dis
lance to his punts and the Midgets
handling the kickoffs and punts rag
gedly to lose great distance if not the
ball. House and A. Fleck were the
chief ground gamers but not consist
ent even against the much lighter
Dickinson line. After holding the
ball most of the period, Mandan had
first down on the Dickinson six yard
line at the end of the first quarter
and Fleck went over in two plays at
the start of the second. Boehm failed
in a line attempt for the extra point.
The rest of the half was even and
ended with 1t Mandan's ball in the
middle of the field.
Saddler had broken away several
times for end runs of IL to IS yards
and Russell, too, made some Off
tackle smashes but fumbles offset
these gains.
The game also was even through
the third period with Mandan gain
ing considerable yardage on a punt
which rolled through three Midgets.
From this advantage they plowed
steadily down but were being held
well when Coach Richards sent in a
substitute, who drew a penalty for
talking before the play. This put
the Braves on the yard line with two
downs to make it. Boehm' went
through right guard for the touch
down the first play. A pass Boehm
to House failed for the extra point.
Here Maule, who had started at
quarter to be replaced by Mars, was
sent in for Russell and the advantage
of the Midgets in the passing game
then. came to light. Receiving the
kickoff Dickinson Embossed their
aerial game and marched down the
field, Maule to Anderson, Maule to
Mars, Maule to Saddler, Maule to
Galloway. Although Mandan got the
ball once in the remaining time OF
that period, their gains were limited
to one first down before Anderson
caught a beautiful pass from Maule
from the 81 yard line and sprinted 20
yards for the touchdown. A pass,
Maule to Galloway, vas fumbled to
lose the extra point.
Fumbles in the final period cost
Dickinson the chance to score again.

MANY FOR
ADVANCED

London, Oct. 6.-R-Theor1eS Is to
the cause of the R-1O1 disaster sranged
today all the way from struetural
defects to inability to maneuver in a
storm.
AS related here the dirigible which
this year was enlarged with addition
Of an extra bay in the center, crossed
the channel and headed into the
French interior without incident but
after six or seven hours out OF Card
ington began to respond sluggishly to
control and to wobble In the STORM.
The rain poured in torrents and
gathering on the sides Qt the .dirigtble
added weight to It. necessitating the
dropping of ballast. Residents about
Beauvais saw it pass overhead at
about 400 feet altitude and in at least
some cases gathered the impression
it was having engine trouble, although
the pilot, II. p. Leach, has denied this.
South of Beauvais the dirigible
slumped down into -a-4yallev. bumped
once or twice slightly against the
ground, and then, failing to.rise above
the encircling rim OF the valley,
crashed into q hillside. The explosion,
all accounts agree, followed imme-
diately and fire soon consumed the
ship. U.s.
May Have Caused Spark
Leach believes the crash may have
snapped an electric connection and
caused q spark which ignited the
highly inflammable hydrogen lifting
gas, or that friction of some Of the
metal Orders as they were srended
might have brought a spark which set
off the gas.
Almost no one in authority lays any
significance to the fact that smoking
was permitted aboard the R-10l, the
first lighter than-air craft on which
this has been q privilege. use OF
crude oil for fuel instead Of gasoline,
and fire proofing Of q room I'M one
section of the ship were considered
to have made this possible. 1t-was
not believed that precautions taken
against accident through smoking
could have failed.
The dirigible's lack of buoyancy
may have been due to rain gathering
on the sides Of the envelope, that OBJ
servers recalled that at departure
from Cardintgon the ship rose only
20 feet or SO above the mooring mast
when it was released, whereas It
should have risen about 200 feet. It
flew so low over London on its way
east that dogs barked at 1t.
Some held to the theory Of q.
structural defect brought on possibly
by the recent e~nlarging. A friend Of
Major @. n. Scott, one Of the air ex-
perts aboard and the man who
brought the R-34 to America. said he
expressed his misgivings prior to the
dirigib1e's start.
