~ YE, N. Y, August 16.-Gregory
- Mangin, Davis Cup alternate of
Newark, N. j., and Georgetown
University, and 19-year-old
Clifford Suffer of New Orleans, holder
of the intercollegiate championship,
fought their way to the final round of
the Eastern grass-courts mems singles
championship on wet courts today.
In taking their semi-final round
matches they eliminated higher rank
ing stars. Mangin turned back John
Van Ryn, Newark. N. j., No. in the
ranking, 81, 81, while Suffers win
came over Berkeley Bell, Texas, No. 8
player, Ga, 6-3.
The two youngsters will clash In the
final match tomorrow afternoon, while
the title round in the womens singles
will bring together Miss Marjorie Glad

Baroness Giacomo Levi of Italy former

ton of the women's championship this
week. Miss Gladman today defeated
Miss Clara Louise Zinke, Cincinnati,
6-3, Ga, while Baroness Levi elm
mated Miss Helen Marlowe. Los An
geles. SO, 6-3.
Mangins victory over Van Ryn was
less expected than Suffers victory over
Bell, for Van Ryn had won his way to
the Semi-final round by defeating sew
eral opponents without loss of set.
Though all players were handicapped by
the muddy condition of the courts, only
Mangin seemed to carry of points with
a startling finish that made the gallery
forget the heavy balls.
Earned points were chalked up by
Van Ryn while Mangin was scoring
placements with regularity. The Bell
Suffer duel was marked by numerous
falls as the players desperately sought to
retrieve balls. Suffer, however, man
aged to handle Bells chop strokes to a

Virginia Expands Its athletic
Facilities to Aid Intrd-MuraIs

r UNIVERSITY, Va, August 16-
Athletic facilities at the Uni
versity of Virginia will be more
than doubled during the ses-
sion of 1s3O-31, according to James G..
Driver, Virginia's athletic director.
Contracts have just been let for the
construction of three new practice and
PLAYING fields suitable for foot ball in
the Fall and for base ball or lacrosse in
the Spring. These are in addition to
the new 100000 foot ball stadium now
being constructed. A large number of
new tennis courts will also be laid out.
Intramural athletics at Virginia. will
be developed during the session just
ahead on a much larger scale than
they have been in the past, Driver
pointed out. Space will be provided so
that every one of Virginia'S $500 men
can take part in some form of sport
All of the new fields and courts will
be built near the memorial gymnasium.
Space for one base ball and foot ball
field is provided on the land just in
the rear of the home of Pop" Lam
nigan. Virginia's retired track coach.
Though not graded this space has
been used as practice field for several
years.
Plan Full Program.
Two more foot ball fields will be
made possible when sufficient grading
and filling has been done on the space
between Lambeth filed and the gym
nasium. This was formerly used as
the Virginia State Forest Nursery. Ten
mis- courts will be placed both above
and below the gymnasium.
Because Virginia is building fine
new foot ball stadium does not mean
that we intend to put too much en-
phasis on foot ball and neglect other
sports" Driver said.
First of all we want to develop a
we'll rounded system of athletics with
a program broad enough to take care

unanimous verdict of these leading
teachers and players was that slic-
ing on the part of those who
habitually do so is caused by the
hands leading clubhead at contact.
The effect Is the same as pulling
the face of the clubhead in toward
the left hip as you strike the ball.
The cure is easy, yet hard. All
YOU have to do is to have hands

your club goes through.

Drawing the storm last Monday
night about twenty-five south side
farmers gathered at Cherry Creek
school and perfected the Missouri
River Bridge and Road associa-

BOB STEFFENSON'S HOUSE
DESTROYED AT NIGHT
POOR CHIMNEY

The Bob S~teffenson farm home
a few miles south of the river
was destroyed with nearly all it's
contents between 1900 and 1900
p. m. last Friday night.
According to the best reports
available Mr.. Steffenson made a
late evening trip to the barn to
see if everything was in all right
and when he started to return to
the house he saw flames shoot
ing high around the chimney. An
effort was made to fight the fire
but it was utterly useless. AS
many of the furnishings as pos
sible were dragged out but most
of the contents were burned as
the flames enveloped the building
quickly. A small amount of insur-
was carried.
The other farm buildings were
not burned and the family took
shelter in a small building that
has been used as sleeping quart
ers and are now living in town.

residence, regret to learn that Mr..
Fullerton has been transferred to

move there within a few days.
The change comes as a promotion
and for that fact they are to be
congratulated. The Culbertson sta

ness from both the north and
south as well as from the east

has a heavy load of long distance
calls. From that point Mr.. Full

1881 CROP BUMPER
STATISTICIAN SAYS

VIM. B. Mears of ST. Paul. was
in Wolf Point Thursday. Mr..
Mears for the last eight years
has been making a study of the
crops in the Northwest from gov
eminent statistics and he says
that next years crop will be from
rair to good and that the crop
in 1881 will be a bumper one. Mr..
Mears issues forecasts to banks
all through the Northwest from
st. Paul to Great Falls.
According to his observations
history repeats itself in ten year
and forty year cycles, and crops
for the coming years may in gen
eral be predicted by a close study
of previous years. For instance,
conditions in 1881 will approxim-
ately duplicate those of 1891,
which was in general a big crop
year owe the northwest.
He says that from 1882 to 1890
Montana never produced a wheat
crop that went over 20 bu. to the
acre for the whole state, and
that beginning 1891 no average
yield ever fell below 20 bushels
in any year for "a years. From
this fact he deduces the prophecy
that there will be no yields below
20 bushels for a period of "a years
beginning with the year 1881. Fol
that he expects a Is year
when the average yield
will fall below 20 bushels each
year. In the period of 1916 to 1929
inclusive, there has been only n
wheat crop, that Of 1927, when
the average was owe 20 bushels.
Mr.. Mears says that one of the
troubles of the farming game has
always been that if there was a
bumper crop of a certain grain
one year. a considerably larger
acreage of that crop would be
the next year, with the
probable result that, conditions
being vastly different the second
year, the large acreage would not
Weld as well as expected and the
would lose money on the
investment.
1t is his aim in putting out
'orecasts to bankers and other
business men to reduce the odds
against the farmer and business
nan in the farming gamble by
cling them what kind of wealth
sr and how much rainfall they
ire likely to have.
When asked how about the
probable price for next year he
aid it would be better than this
rear. He said that the drought
n the wheat raising states in the
Middle West had not been brok-
at the time winter wheat was
,etting it's start, that there was
lot a great surplus of wheat in
he country, nor would there be
text year.

EXECUTIVE OFFICE

A serious fire, believed to have
been caused by defective light
wires, in the wing of the White
House at Washington, occupied by
the executive offices, furnished
the whole fire fighting force of
the capital a busy two hours on
Christmas eve. The President and
Mrs. Hoover were at the time
entertaining $50 children in the
living rooms of the building. The
damage to the offices was about
$780, 900 but the White House prop
er was not damaged.
Documents Saved
President and some of his aids
personally rescued all Of his files
and property from the Offices, al
though much material belonging
to one of his secretaries, Mr..

many documents, considered relics
from preceding administrations.

property.
Second Fire In Its History
This is the first time the White
House has been damaged by
flames since 1914, when a British
General. during the War of 1912,
found the city so easily taken
that he captured it and burned
the executive mansion. It's recon
struction was not begun until
1921.
Barring the absence of the
President and his son, Allan
Hoover, who ran out in evening
clothes to help rescue furniture
and documents from the flames,
the Christmas party was not in
terrupted and it continued safely
in the main part of the building,
more than $50 feet from the one
story of the office building.
