MERCER Cannot Be
FORCED TO help IN
BUILDING OF BRIDGE
Attorney General opines That
Decision Is Up to County
Commissioners

Mercer county cannot be compelled
to participate in the building OF the
Big Bend" bridge over the Missouri
river near Garrison without the &C
quiescence and participation In the
project by the county,s board Of coun-
ty commissioners, according to an
opinion issued by Attorney General
James Morris.
The opinion was In reply to q query
from John Moses. Mercer county
states attorney. regarding the meas
ure passed by the recent legislature,
appropriating $l77.000 toward con-
struction of the bridge between Mer-
Ger and Mclean counties.
MI. Morris, in his opinion, said:
Chapter 40, session laws N. D.,
1929. provides:
That before any such bridge or
bridges is begun, the department OF
state highways shall select, approve
and acquire a suitable site therefor,
within the general limits or boun-
diaries prescribed by the state lcgis-
latiye assembly In its act appropriate
ing money for bridge construction
hereunder. prepare plans and specific
ations therefor. advertise for bids,
make an award or awards thereof,
enter into a contract or contracts for
the construction and materials there
for, approve and allow estimates for
such construction and materials IN
the same manner and procedure as
provided by law for the construction
OF q state highway, provided. however.
that the state shall not pay 0 than
one-third Of the cost Of such site and
cost Of construction and materials,
nor shall the state pay any money
from state funds in excess OF any ap-
propriation made by law for the site,
materials, and construction OF any
such bridge.
"Chapter 159, session laws N. D.,
1927, paragraph ~. provides the pro-
cedure for the construction OF state
highways and requires action on the
part of the board of county commits
sioners acuuiescing in the construc-
tion of the highway and setting aside
of funds out Of which to pay the
c~o,,nty,s share Of the cost Of the i'm
p1OSC4AACAAV' --.
blouse bill No. 66 does not change
the procedure insofar as the county
is concerned and since by Cnapter
l4o, session laws Of North Dakota Tor
1929. the same procedure now IS pro-
vided for the construction Of bridges
that was previously provided Q the
construction Of highways. Mercer
county can not be compelled to partlc-
ipate in the building OF the Big
Bend" bridge without acQ!uiescence
and participation in the project by
the board Of county commissioners Of
Mercer county.
"You also wish to know whether or
not the state highway commission
might be able to use a portion OF Mer-
Ger county,s share or either the gaso-
line tax or the motor vehicle license
revenue to apply upon Mercer coun-
tvs share In the bridge and against
the will Of the county commissioners
of Mercer county.
II would advise you that the state
highway commission has no such
powers now vested In It"

Fired Without Warning

Lesser jolts than the throw
ing of grapefruit without warn
ing have been known to sever
athletic relationships tWiXt
members of the Large Three.
Therefore the present appre-
l4ension may be somewhat justi-
fled.
A Harvard publication, The
Lampoon, once threw one in
the general geographical direc-
ton of Princeton, and the
Tigers cut Harvard off their
football schedule just like that!
Since only printed words
were thrown at Princeton, and
with some provocation at that,
what, we ask, might happen
when citrus fruit is heaved
at Yale with plenty of provo
cation, if your preference for
music is at all masculine.
Yes sir, a few more random
grapefruit and the former IA

and betWiXt the members of
the erstwhile Big Three will
have Simmered down to a mere
matter of one game a year be
tween Yale and Princeton,
each not contracting Harvard
athletically for some reason or
another. Yale knows it can
beat Princeton. but it's never
sure about Harvard.
Had the grapefruit heaved
at Vallee crashed the cymbal
at the moment the musical
score called for such a disturb
ance, all might have been for
given and forgotten, but the
intonation came at moment
when the music called for
twittering of birds only-and
in the meantime there's been
hell to pay.

A. A. Quite Upset

When the Athletic Associa-
tion of Yale University hears
about this, there will no doubt
be great indignation. Of course,
there is one mitigating circum-
stance surrounding the whole
thing, the same being that
the grapefruit didn't hit Rudy,
but rather crashed the cymbal
of the bass drum player. Be-
ing thus intercepted, the toss
may be said to have been in
completed, but there is no
record of them having called
the ball back and tried the
play over again.
Before this piece of collegiate
effrontery is over, somebody is
likely to be court martialed.
Already it is reported that notes
of apology are in preparation
by heavy-broWed Harvardians
to be forwarded through Off
cial channels to indignant Yale
professors. The next few hours
will tell whether Yale intends
to call off football relations in
retaliation.

Coach John D. O'Reilly has

The first of these will be the
Millrose games in New York Sat

NORRIS
SHINES FOR
MARYLAND

Jack Norris is one Of the big
factors in Maryland University'S S
success on the basketball floor
this year.
When Bob Gaylor quit school,
his departure left Coach Burton
Shipley with a puzzle. He had
no competent forward to take
Gaylor's place but d ecided to
switch "Bozie" Berger to Gay
lor's vacant spot and try Norris
at center. Norris, who stands
about six feet two, was under
study to Berger last year at cen
ter.
The new combination has
clicked beyond the fondest ex-
pectationS of Shipley. The Ter
rapins have suffered but one loss,
dropping a close decision to 10y
ola College of Baltimore in the
Ritchie gym. They are second
to Alabama in the Southern Con-
ference race with five victories
and no defeats.
