School Board Plans to SaUe
81, 500 on Music; Petitions
Seek Retention of Lirnburg
Petitions Follow Report That
Instructor is Asked to
Find New Position

The school board is urged to re-
tain Stanley Limburg as music in
structor in Redwood Falls schools IN
petitions being circulated this week
by members of the city band and
others who drafted the resolutions at
meeting Monday night.
The petitions express appreciation
of the boards efforts to pare $lO,000
from its budget but contend that the
savings should not seriously impair
our present standard of educational
training" Fifteen copies of the resolu-
tions were drafted and are being cir
culated both in the business and re-
sidential districts by committees
selected at the meeting.
The school board voted several
weeks ago to save the school district
$4,000 next year. Several means OF
realizing the savings were suggested
and published in The Gazette at the
request of several school board MEM
bers who sought the public's attitude
on the subject.
The board was criticised for secre-
cy at the meeting of band enthusiasts
who declared they know from anthem
tic sources that Mr.. Limburg has
been asked to seek another position
for next year.
The petition reads as follows:
We, the undersigned, do hereby
respectfully petition the board Of
education of independent school dis
trict No. /, Redwood Falls, as fol-
lows:
We respectfully appreciate the sim
cere efforts of your honorable body
to reduce the burden of taxation upon
this community in so far as it does
not seriously impair our present
standard of educational training.
In view of the splendid progress in
instrumental music shown under the
leadership of Mr.. Stanley Limburg,
during the past four years, we hereby
request the board of education to re-
tain Mr.. Limburg and continue the
present working agreement between
the school and the Scenic City band
whereby the city of Redwood Falls
will be assured of outstanding music
al organizations and educational ad-
vantages.

Thief Breaks Into
Farmers Elevator;
Finds Safe Empty
Attempted to Enter Atlas
Elevator; BlOOdhOunds
Lose Scent

Sheriff L. j. Kise, his bloodhounds
and their trainer, A. B. Coan, were
called to the Farmers Elevator early
Wednesday morning in an attempt
to locate robber who had broken
into the elevator office sometime
Tuesday night.
The robbery was noticed when
employees of the elevator came to
work Wednesday morning. The back
door had been broken into and furth-
err investigation revealed that the
robber had opened the safe which
was empty and had been left unlock
ed. Nothing was taken.
By following the tracks which were
barely noticeable under the light
snow which fell Tuesday night,
Sheriff Kise trailed the prowler to the
Atlas elevator where he had visited
before going to the Farmers elevat-
or. The windows there had been
tempered with, but apparently no
other effort was made to get into the
building.
After leaving the Atlas elevator
the tracks showed that the thief inn
lmediately went to the Farmers
elevator where he broke through the
first door and sawed hole in the
panel of the second door, so he could
reach through and turn the lock.
The break in probably happened
sometime before $50 p. M, Tuesday
night as the snow came about that
time partially covering his tracks.
When the bloodhounds arrived, the
scent was several hours old and COW
cred with snow and the dogs were
unable to follow them far.
A robbery occurred at the same
place two years ago.

count when Cuff, Lauterbach and
Corbett Melted a field goal each.
Lamberton pulled ahead again with a
free throw and field goal to retain
its lead at the midway mark, II to z.
Redwood scored but once in the
third quarter on clever play. Dur
ing the last quarter, Coach Cady's
charges were held scoreless while
Redwood scored twice from the gift
line and one field goal. With but 35
seconds left to play and Redwood
still trailing by one point, time was
taken out by the Redwood boys. On
the next tip, one of the Lamberton
guards received the ball and it was
thrown around until the gun sounded.
Morton will be represented at
Springfield after long battle with
Belview in the last game of the
tournament. Only once during the
entire game, did the score between
the two teams vary more than one
basket and that was at the beginning
of the game when Belview was ahead
8 to O.
The moderated Belview team sur
prised the tournament followers with
its plucky stand The first quarter
ended z to 6 in favor of Morton, the
half IL to 8 for Morton and the third

Fire Fans Warned
to Obey Statutes;
ARRESTED, Fined
Mayor Not Joking in Drive to
Obtain Right-of-W Way for
Fire Trucks

In a drive to enforce state laws in
regard to conduct during fires, Char
les Schneider, Redwood Falls, was
arrested Monday morning for follow
ing the fire truck at too close range
while it was answering call to the
John Zitzman home Sunday. He was
taken before Judge T. F. Reed Mon
day and fined $5.75.
Schneider was arrested at the re-
quest of the fremen and members OF
the city council in an effort to dis
courage interference with fremen in
the discharge Of their duties.
To put more clearly in the minds
of the fire goers the law which gov
ems the following of fire trucks,
Judge Reed has supplied the follow
ing information: The state law pro-
vides that when fire truck, police
car or ambulance is making call,
car drivers should turn to the right
side of the road at the sound of the
trucks siren and stay there until
the truck has passed.
After the truck has passed, cars
must remain until the truck is in
front at least 500 feet. After the
truck has arrived at the scene of the
fire, visiting vehicles must be parked
at least one block away.
Mayor H. D. Thorp states that all
of the above law will be enforced
and if necessary, further arrests will
be made. "For 25 years these viola
lions have been taking place; the
chief of police has pleaded, the fire
chief has issued requests each year
asking cooperation with the depart
ment by staying clear of the trucks
path, the mayor and the council have
offered cooperation in the matter,
but violations still continue" the
mayor said Tuesday.
Because all the announcements
and pleadings have been issued by
authoritative persons and the viola.
tions are still taking place, I believe
it is time for action. We don't like
to be too strict, but I have been
fireman for % years and know the
hardships they have to go through
before arriving at the scene of the
fire."
He also says that the policemen
have been instructed to arrest all
violators. According to the mayor,
not only those who are driving cars
will have to be careful when the fire
truck is out, but also the pedestrians.
Onlookers will be arrested for stand
ing too close when the truck comes
out of the city hall. Also at the
fire, arrests will be made unless
spectators stand back at least 300
feet, according to Mr.. Thorp.
The Redwood Falls fire department
was summoned Sunday to the John
Zitzman home, west of the water
tower, to extinguish the blaze which
had started on the roof.
The chimney burned out earlier in
the morning and sparks burned
through the roof into the attic where
then caught fire. When the fire de-
partment arrived the attic and the
roof were burning wildly, but they
soon had the fire under control.

Japanese water warriors are
all set to batter down every
world swimming record held
by man.
This is the opinion of Robert
Bob" Kiphuth, coach of the United
States Mems Olympic Team and
swimming mentor at Yale. He pre-
diets the Japanese will dominate
the aquatic sport for the next four
years.
If they don't rewrite the record
book they will be instrumental in
forcing our own boys or others TO
do the trick" said Kiphuth.
I'VE have seen the japanese work.
ing quietly and seriously at speed
swimming for the last few years
and they now rank with, or better
than the rest of the worlds aquatic
stars. I believe the Japanese will
shatter many of the present great
marks within a short space of time"
The japanese are naturally buoy

dous leg drive. They glide over the
water like fast-traveling sea sleds
with prov riding high. They give
this effect by facilitating the arm re-
covery without rolling their bodies.
Another answer to their marvellous
speed is a two-handed pull on the
water, noticed particularly by Ray
Daughters, coach of Helene Madi-
son. the swimming queen Of the
world
Ray pointed out that the little
men from the Orient have both
hands in the water at the same time
one pulling the last of one stroke
and the other the start of the next.
The American form has one hand
entering the water as the other is
leaving.
Except for these exceptional points
in their swimming the Nipponese
use the orthodox style Of stroke
and leg action.
