Libby Fans
Enjoy Another
Wrestling Card
Main Bout Stopped by Injury to One
Contender in Third ROund-One
Armed Man Is Clever.

Libby wrestling fans enjoyed two
good bouts last Friday night and would
have seen another good one had the
main event gone to finish. In this
event between Bob Nelson OF Port
land, 2O5 lbs, and Rudy Skarda OF
Lewistown, 1913 lbs, Skarda sustained
a cash over the left eye in the third
round that made impossible continu-
ance of the bout. Although under pres
ent day rules nothing short OF may
hem and murder seems forbidden, yet
it can be said that Skarda's injury was
due to an accident. He bled profusely
and the injury was such that he could
not continue. Nelson voluntarily agreed
TO call the bout draw.
Skarda and Nelson are both clever
wrestlers and were giving good ex-
hibition. Skarda is quick, active and
well trained. Nelson is strong and
knows all the tricks of the game. Both
men were working hard. Skarda is a
former football star of Drake univer-
sity, Des Moines, Iowa. He has had
81 bouts and has won over 40 of them
He was evidently favorite of the local
fans.
Two good preliminaries added inter-
est to the card. Fred Grouse, champion
one-armed wrestler, of Michigan, was
matched with Lawrence Bjorneby Of
Kaispell, in three five minute rounds
The bout was draw, neither mar
getting fall. Both were active and \

100 Volunteer
Fire WardenS
Are Appointed
Forest Service Enlists Aid
of Local Men in Prevent
ing Fire.
HAVE SAME POWER
AS PEACE OFFICER

During the past week approximately
100 volunteer fire vardens within Lin
coin county have received formal ap-
pointment from State Forester Rutledge
Parker.
These men are all local residents
within the county, living within and
adjacent to the Kootenai national for
est. Businessmen, loggers and ranchers,
through their keen interest In main
tanning the best conditions within the
region, constitute the list. These men,
because of making their living here
and because of their desire as good
citizens to see continuance of good
conditions as well rs their love for the
beautiful region in which they live,
have volunteered to do all within their
province toward keeping fire out OF
the forested areas.
Volunteer fire wardens when moving
about the region will be constantly on
the watch for the careless one who,
in the Judgment Of the volunteer fire
wardens, seems careless with his use
of fire. They hope to be able to cor
rect the careless ones in manner that
will result in much fire prevention
Each volunteer fire warden has been
provided with copy Of the states fire
law and likewise will be on the alert
for open violations Of the law. They
have the power to arrest the same as
any peace officer, and may invoke such
authority if, in their judgment, an of
fender is acting in violation OF law.
Travellers within the forests during
the fire season are required to be
equipped with axe, shovel and water
bucket for each car or pack train, and
such requirement win be checked
Volunteer wardens, through contact
with fishermen, campers and others On
outing trips, expect to accomplish much
worthwhile fire prevention through
discussing with such people the safety
methods that are so essential in the
careful use of fire in the forested
areas.
