CLUB HAS FIRST
GENERAL SESSION
Plan to Provide Dentistry
For Needy Children;
Delegates Leave

Plans to provide free dental
work to children of needy families
were discussed Tuesday afternoon
at the seasons first general meet
ing of the Woman's Club of Red
Lodge, held at the home of Mrs.
C. c. Bowler, president.
Mrs. H. B. Field, chairman of
the public welfare department, re-
ported on a recent conference
with Mrs. Henrietta Crockett,
chairman of the state Tubercu-
losis association. It was agreed,
she said, that proceeds of the
Christmas seal sale in Red Lodge
last year, and the proceeds this
year, might be devoted to dental
service for children. The club will
ask the cooperation of local dent
lists in conducting dental examin-
ations in the primary grades of
the Red Lodge schools, to deter
mine the necessity for the work.
Mrs. w. B. Haselton, chairman
of the American citizenship de-
partment, gave to the club the
message of the state chairman of
citizenship work, including sug-
g~estions for club activity this
year.
Fingerprints, their uses in
modern society besides their use
in crime detection, were an inter-
esting feature of the program.
Mrs. S. C. Merriman, acting for
Mrs. A. t. Jenkins, read an article
on the practice of fingerprinting,
and Mrs. Field spoke on the or
igins of the practice. Axef
Nordstrom, experienced in the
process, made f~ingerprints of
those who desired, for purposes of
personal Identification or record.
Mrs. Bowlen, Mrs. Merriman,
Mrs. c. H. Draper and Mrs. Will
liam Freakes, delegates to the
convention of state district No. 4,
departed for Helena this after
noon. Mrs. s. nj. Souders will GO

CRUSHER TAKES
SECOND LIFE ON
COOKE ROAD JOB
w. I. Timonen of Red Lodge
Accidently Killed
Monday. Morning

Jerked by a drive belt into the
machinery of a rock crusher,
Waino Timonen, 20, was killed
and his body terribly mangled be-
fore the fatality was realized by
his working companions. The &C
cident occurred at $3.50 O'Clock
Monday morning, at the Morrison
Knudsen set-up is miles south of
Red Lodge, where the machine is
being used in ~surfacing work on
the new Cooke highway.
Young Timonen's death was the
second fatal accident in the three
year history of the Cooke road
construction. Exactly one month
before, on September 2, Glen
Welch, employe of McNutt &
Pyle, was killed in an accidental
powder explosion on top of the
mountain.
Funeral services were conduct
ed this afternoon at the Finnish
Lutheran church by Matt Erkkila
and R. G.. Martin.
Waino was employed as an oiler
on the gravel machine. While
working near the large drive belt,
it is believed, he slipped and fell
against the rapidly moving band,
which pulled him with force into
the pully wheel and wheel mount
ing.
None of the other men on the
operation crew witnessed the oc-
currence, as they were busy at
their stations about the machine,
and in the constant roar and clat-
ter of the crusher no sound could
be heard. Waino's oiling can
dropped on to a conveyor belt, and
its discovery caused an investiga-
ton to be made. Contrary to gen.
eral rumor, the victim did not fall
into the jaws of the crusher.
Waino Isaac Timonen, eldest
son or MI. n Mrs. isaac limo
men, was born in Red Lodge, July
II, 1904. He attended school in
this city, and for most of his life
had lived with the family here.
Besides his parents he is survived
by five brothers, Wilho, John,
Walter, Hemil and Oliver, and
five sisters, Mrs. Tyne Ahola,
Sigrid, May Lillian, Mildred and
Clara Timonen.
A brother-in-law of the de-
ceased, Matt Ahola, met a violent
death last February l, in the A.
c. M. mine at Washoe, when he
was buried under a fall of rock
from the roof of one of the en-
tries.

PRIMITIVE Man
HAS attention
OF SCIENTISTS
Evidence of Ancient Life
Is Plentiful in Red
Lodge Regions
By wendell r

United Press Staff Correspondent
There's a great mystery abroad
in Montana mystery several
million years old and more fasci-
mating to scientific minds than
the most perfect detective thriller.
The mystery resolves itself into
a hunt for a missing character
primitive man. With a perfect
geologic setting for the discovery
of human remains, at least ac-
cording to certain widely accept
ed theories, Investigators still are
unable to find any definite trace
of such an individual.
A complete geological record of
progress from the earliest times,
before the age of reptiles and
through that grotesque period of
giant dinosaurs to the age of
mammals has been traced in Mon
tana, northern Wyoming and the
province of Alberta.
Some of the most astounding
discoveries of dinosaurs and their
period ever made have been ac-
complished in Montana. The tyra-
nosaurus, king Of armored reptiles,
the camptosaurus, hoplitosaurus
and other monsters have been
found in skeletons remarkably
well preserved.
In 1880 a group led by DR..
Glenn L. Jepsen, eminent Prince
ton university scientist, found
fragments of a dinosaur egg in
the Dry Creek oil field, west of
Red Lodge. The only previous
find of such fragments was made
in 1923 by Roy Chapman An
drews in the Cobb desert of Mon
golia.
This summer the only complete
fossils of armored fish ever found
were taken from Beartooth butte,
in the Beartooth mountains. Lung
fish, believed to be among the
first air breathing vertebrates, al
so were discovered, as well as
primitive land plants. These re-
mains come from the age which
preceded that of mammals.
From Beartooth butte also have
come specimens of the sotra-
coderm, a class of fish or fish-like
animals from which vertebrate
animals emerged more or less d.
rectly. This summer a 10000, 900
year old ancestor of the ostra-
coderm was believed found by

FOREST SOLDIERS TO
LEAVE FOR
AT EASTERN STATION

Eighty-eight members of the
civilian conservation corps who
have spent the summer in road
and trail construction in the Bear
tooth mountains, in charge of two
of the regular army men, will de-
part Thursday for New Jersey,
where they will he discharged at
Camp Dix.
The departing group consists
of those who have secured en-
ployment, or have other reasons
for not wishing to reenlist in the
national forest army. Sergeant
Charles Smith, top kick of Com
pany 1928, and Corporal Rodney
Johnson, supply sergeant, will go

will be recalled to Camp FIJI on
Rock creek this Saturday, to mo-
Billie and strike camp for the de-
parture October IL, said Capt. M.
l.. Young, company commander,
this week.
The reenlisted forest soldiers
will be sent to some post in the
Fourth corps area, in the Tonnes
see valley, said Captain Young.
He has received notice from gov
eminent authorities that the men
of Company 1928 who were en-
listed from Carbon, Saltwater and
Yellowstone counties for work
with the rockies" during the
summer will not be accepted for
reenlistment with the regulars.

ENGINEERS OKAY
FORT PECK DAM
Northeast Montana Elated
Over Prospect of Huge
Water Project

News of approval in Washing
ton by army engineers of the
massive Fort Peck dam project
for water storage and flood con-
troll, 20 miles southeast of Glas-
gov on the Missouri river, was
welcomed in northeastern Mon
tana Monday.
The vast project for which sur
veys are completed may suddenly
transform a placid countryside in
to a beehive of activity with the
possibility that as many as $4,000
men could be placed at work.
The dam and storage facilities
are expected to cost $50, 100000
and the storage lake will cover
100000 acres of land, requiring
the acquisition of scores of farms
and several small communities.
The dam proper would be the
second largest individual struc-
ture of its nature in the nation,
would create a lake liza miles long
with a storage capacity of 17,000,-
600 acre feet of water. The dam
would be 231 feet high or about
500 feet less than the Boulder
dam, of the earth-fill type.
Army engineers have estimated
the power potentialities as hav-
ing a valuation of $29, 100000
In addition to its vast POSSIBLE
tiles in the impounding Of needed
irrigation waters, the dam is held
as essentially needed in CONTROL
ing the flow Of the Missouri river
thereby benefitting navigation
and as a flood control e~xpedient

|HOAG IS BEATEN
BY AL WEBSTER
Kellum and Gerhardt Fight
Fast SemifinaI in Card
At Red Lodge

Al Webster of Billings justified
his moniker, "Iron Man, for a
Red Lodge boxing audience Sat-
urday night by taking Young
Clint Hoag's punches on the chin,
and mauling the conservation
corps middleweight decisively in
six rounds at Washington hall.
Webster didn't hesitate to wade
in on Hoag's s~outhpaw artillery,
lodging the forest soldiers left
swings, taking his right jabs on
the point of the chin or the nose.
He rocked and mussed Hoag with
short hooks to the head and body
every time Clint left himself open,
which was not oftener than Clint
could help.
Before the end of the third
round, Web had Hoag's punches
nicely gagged, and had Hoag
bleeding under one eye. In the
fourth and fifth he followed Clint
constantly about the ring, push
ing his chin close to Hoag's out
stretched right, failing him heav-
lily every time he caught him
against the ropes. Once he nib
bled at Hoag's right glove. Hoag
landed plenty of times with his
right, but missed or laid himself
open, almost every time he threw
his left. The sixth round was
none too short for Hoag, whose
features ere already consider
ably battered by the iron mans
slashing blows.
"Wild Man" Lou Cozzens, who
recently defeated Webster for the
Montana middleweight title, and
who lost a six-round decision to
Young Hoag on September 16,
witnessed the bout.
In the fifth round, while Web
ster was soaking up Hoag's
punches with his face and body,
his second leaned through the
ropes, bawling loudly that his man
had been fouled. Whatever it was,
it escaped the referees attention.
Bert Castellano, referee, gave
Webster 33 points to 81 for Hoag,
giving the second, fifth and sixth
rounds to Webster, calling the
first, third and fourth draws. Ray
Houtonen turned in a score card
similar to Bert's. Ross Martin,
the other Judge, scored 81 for
Webster, rs for Hoag, gave Web
ster all rounds but the first and
third, which he called draws. No
fouls were called or figured in the
judges decision.
Larry Kellum of the forest
army, at 140 pounds, and Cliff
Gerhardt of Washoe, at las, boxed
four lively rounds. Kellum forced
the action, rushing Cliff frequent
ly and tagging him on the chin
with his far reaching left, jump
ing clear before Cliff could clip
him with his right. Gerhardt
forced Kellum onto the ropes sew
eral times, rushing and wrestling
him into clinches. Though Kellum
