P'WOOD TEAM HAS
GOODCHANCE TO Win
BY Lloyd skor

By Lloyd Skor
This year the Plentywood Wild
cats will enter the District Tourna-
ment as n of the teams favored
10 come through to the finals.
Drawings have as yet not been
made so it is rather difficult to
prophecy finalists for the tourney.
II may be possible for the strong
est teams to play in the first or
second round.
The Wildcats have a well-bal-
anced team and as their reserve
strength is greater than that OF
he other teams in the district they
have a better chance to emerge in
tournament play. In Reinertson
and Zimmerman, PIentywood has
two OF the outstanding men of the
district. Timmerman's fast break
with his ability to hit the hoop
from n angle or distance makes
him the greatest potential m
in the district. Zimmerman cap
tains the Wildcats and knows his
basketball.
No center in the district has
been able to get the tip consistent
iy from Reinertson. and his work
under the basket on defense and
offense Is second to mi HOLMAN
at forward, and Loucks at guard
are a pair of drivers that make
plays These boys are fighters and
coupled with Zeidler. a real ball
handler. have the ability to bring
the ball into scoring territory.
Knudsen. center and guard, al
ter having played no basketball for
two years. has developed into a
good ball handler. which. together
with his great height and strength
makes him dangerous under the
bankboard.
The balance of the squad. Hell
geson, Koike. Antonsen, and Nor
gan are good enough basketball
men to push the first string to the
limit
The type of game displayed
against Scobey and DOoley this
year leads us to believe that these
bows have plenty of dope up their
sleeves. AT their worst they are
hard to beat and at their best are
~invincible. The final game before
the tournament will be played
Friday night against Comertown
Comertown defeated P~lentywood in
an early season game This should
be a real battle.

Rural Schools to Be
Given Aid By Uncle Sam

State relief officials have esti-
mated at $4,000 the amount the
federal government will spend In
Montana to keep open the doors OF
about 300 rural schools. nov about
ready to close because of empty
county purses.
The rural schools of Montana
supply a livelihood for 546 teach

funds would have caused these
small schools to close one. two, or
three and In some instances four
months prior to the end OF the reg

public instruction.
The 300. moneYiess districts, In

Passengers on transcontinenta1
trains through the northwest this
summer will eat their meals in ar
officially cooled carr and enjoy the
scenery from cool. luxurious obser-
walton cars. This is another bid
the northwest lines are making for
the favor Of the travelling public
Acknowledging OF trains, how
ever, Is not merely a matter OF
keeping the cars comfortable in
summertime, according to w. r.
Kenney, president OF the Great
Northern. The same mechanism
which will keep the cars cool in
summer maintains an even temper
allure the year around. 1t switches
automatically from the cooling
system to the heating. 1t adds
moisture to the air or takes it out,
as the humidity varies from the
proper level. 1t removes any par
ticles of dust, and by maintaining
an air pressure within the car that
is slightly higher than the pressure
outside, no dirt or cinders can be
brought In by drafts. Windows and
present ventilators are kept sealed
and fresh air Is brought in only
through the air- conditioning sys-

|. Miller Wins Prize
At Twin City Auto Show

Mr.. and Mrs. e. I. Miller return
ed Tuesday night from St. Paul,
where they attended the auto show
at the Municipal auditorium Mr..
Miller says they were treated right
while they were down there, and
even won a $25 cash prize The
Herald reporter naturally wanted
to hear about such a lucky cir
cumstance and Irving said. Weal.
when a person enters the audIfOri-
um where the auto show Is being
held, he is given a free ticket, to
which a stub is attached. The
ticket goes in a large barrel and
the stub is retained by the holder.
AT the close OF the day, the tickets
are rolled around In a huge barret
and the tickets were drawn Ii and
the cash prizes given out in consec-
utive order. No. 13 was for the
largest amount, $50, and Irving
had No. IL which called for SIS,
which he considered fair enough
when it is taken into consideration
that over 5000 tickets were In the
barrel. But that was not all. When
name ~. 4. MhliEI, ThtHtg NOuu,
Montana was called, the crowd
yelled and cheered for the cowboy
from Montana as he stood on the
platform and received the SIS
prize.
In speaking OF the show, Mr.

The airplane has become a very
necessary instrument for locating
line troubles the Montana-D Dakota
Power Co. Is proving this winter.
With impossible roads and deep
drifts through which a car cannot
travel, the airplane again proved
Its worth when they sent out a ma
chine to locate line trouble between
Plentywood and Redstone. The
airplane located the trouble and
then landed on a hill side sliding
along on the skis with which 1t is
equipped for winter flying. The
break in the wire being fixed, the
machine returned to Williston, saw
ing hours of time and giving their

there are. in addition to the four-door
sedan, two-door sedan and business

1884 appear in four body styles in a
price range of from S1,495 to Sl,595
that brings this quality car within the
reach OF many to whom such luxury
and enduring performance we're former
ly denied. Fleetwood bodies on these
cars stress narrow radiator grill,
tear drop headlamps, beaver-tail rear,
long hood and tenders closely ap-
preaching the air-foil cowling Of afr
plane wheels.
La Sale features independent front
wheel suspension similar to that found
on the 1894 Cadillacs. Minus a front
axle, each wheel Is secured to the
frame by parallel upper and lower
forked arms. The upper arms operate
the hydraulic shock absorbers while
the lower ones serve as a support for
the frictionless helical springs. A very
much more rigid frame is employed,
while new double roller steering gear
and the narrower frame make possible
almost effortless steering and a greatly
reduced turning radius The effect Of
the softer springs is Offset by a tor
tional anti-sway stabilizer.

Pierce.ArrOuc

This veteran car Is stepping out for
1884 with new spirit, plainly indicated
by the fact that its Silver Arrow model,
offered in 1888 as a glimpse of the fu-
ture, now Is in regular production. Un-
der the new plan Pierce-Arrows are Of
fered in three general groups, ranging
from the straight-eight model $40 in
two wheelbase lengths, l39 and IA
inches, to the model 1910 Viz and the
model 1248 Viz. The Silver Arrow fits
into this second group, as do a number
OF more conventional types. on wheel
bases comparable to the eight, while the
more conservative models for formal use
are offered on those cars in the third
group on 147-inch wheelbase
Developing ITS brake horsepower. the
Pierce twelve is an unusually capable
motor. Traditionally Pierce, 1t IS de-
signed to deliver high top speed with
relatively low engine speed. Hydraulic
valve lifters which automatically adjust
tappet clearance as motor temperatures
vary have been retained for another
year, having demonstrated their worth
when introduced in 1888. A number Of
detailed refinements have been made to
the motor and chassis. Power brakes
also are featured.
The new Pierce-Arrow models are
roomier and closed bodies have been
equipped with a ventilating system. Body

is thrown up from the pavement by
the wheels deep-hidden cutters rolled
around the edge Of each fender prevent
it from being blown back along the
sides Of the car. There also are re-
cessed plates In the rear tenders to
catch stones cast up by the tires.
Two Of the chassis models are pow
cred with straight eight motors, while
the third carries Viz motor. Brake
horsepower of the three motors Is 120,
las and 100 respectively, at 5000 rpm.
To the highly eff1cient equipment Of
the eights has been added the new
Packard oil-conditioning unit which
serves to filter and regulate the tenc-
perature Of the lubricant. BY cooling
the oil in Summer and warming 1t in
Winter, this system Is said to minimize
engine wear. Retained In the latest
Packards are such proven features as
automatic chassis fabrication, synchro-
mesh transmissions, angle set rear axles
with quiet hypoid gears, power brakes
adjustable from the drivers seat, and
shimmy and wheel-tramp eliminators.
Close attention has been paid to de.
tailed body fitments such as the con-
cealed type curtain rollers and finger
tip adjustment Of the front seat
position.
