Chief Plenty Coups
Relics Museum Is
Request of Indians

A memorial museum to house relics
of the late Chief Plenty Coups, leader
of northwest Indian tribes, was pro-
posed at Billings by a group of his
old-time subjects, the Pryor Crows.
In an effort to raise money for this
purpose, the Indians plan to stage a
rodeo at Pryor July 4 and also are
to solicit funds from whites in this
and other cities, they said.
Speaking through an Interpreter,
Frank Hawk, chairman of the commit
tee, said plans call for conversion of
the Plenty Coups home near Pryor into
a museum. In it will be preserved the
many relics left by the great chieftain,
Hawk asserted.
Serving with him: on the committee
are Plain Feather, who said he was
adopted as a son by Plenty Coups In
1904, and Nick Beartail. All are elders

ject for Martineau's plaque. The
young sculptor brings to life from the
pages of Granville Stuart's diary the
longing and hunger of James and
Granville Stuart for books, as the diary
records they had spent the entire win
ter without as much as an almanac to
look at.
Martineau's sensitive and skillful
fingers have nodded into reality this
dream. Learning that Neil Macarthur,
a Hudson's Bay company trader,
brought a trunkful OF books into the
Bitter Root valley, the Stuarts crossing
three dangerous rivers, travelling $50
miles, found Macarthur had left his
books in charge Of Henry Brooks and
finally persuaded the custodian to sell
five books to them for IS each.
The sculptor's 6 by 3-foot plaque
shows Brooks kneeling by the trunk. In
his outstretched hand is a book. Gran
vile Stuart, facing Brooks, is examining
another book. James Stuart is seen
nearby moving a horse blanket in which
to carry the precious volumes.
Martineau's work is outstanding,
critics say. The plaque will be placed
on the library wall between the stairs
leading to the second floor. Slopes
large paintings will be hung in Pin
chot hail..
In. addition to this work, Martineau
has done some private sculptoring for
Missoula families.
Slopes six pictures will be a val
liable contribution to the history OF
Montana's numbering history. The first
of the large canvass depicts an early
day logging scene. Rattlesnake FLAT"
furnishes the setting. The logs, after
being cut, old-timers recall, were skid
ded to wagons and hauled to the mill,
which was then where the Wilma
theatre now stands on the bank of Mis-
soula river.

BY. WILLIAM FLYNN

During the autumn Of 1881, herds of
farmers and stock raisers in the vicinity
of Warm Springs were harassed by a
giant cinnamon bear which wrought
havoc among their cattle and sheep.
Almost weekly the great creature exc
cuted night raids and with cunning
bordering on the diabolic, eluded all
hunting parties which endeavored to
end his costly forages.
At last, becoming desperate at their
lack of success and the mounting toll
the bear took from their possessions,
ranchers offered a 500 reward to the
person or persons who would kill the
animal. Even this added incen-
tive, which caused more and more hun
tiers to shoulder their guns and take the
trail of the bear which was marked by
partially eaten stock, did not end his
activities. -:
Among those who were attracted by
the reward was n Peter Haelstrom,
only two months from his native Swe-
den, who was making his home on a
ranch not far from the Warm Springs
mound. Guest and dependent of his
brother, Haelstrom believed the reward,
should be kill the bear, would enable
him to make at least a start in acquir-
ing a ranch of his own
His thoughts were fired by memories
of a flaxen-haired girl-wife he had left
In Sweden.
If he should SUCCESSFULLY hunt the
bear, he reasoned, and win the reward,
he could more quickly send her word
that he had found a haven of security
and a place of happiness and peace in
the land to which he had journeyed.
BY dint Of much persuasion, Christian
Jorgenson and Andrew Peterson, coun-
trymen Of the ambitious young Swede,
agreed to join him in the hunt. Hazel
strom offered a share of the reward,
should their undertaking be successful,
but once having given their word, they
generously refused to accept any part
of the money. The sport and adventure
Of the hunt would be sufficient compen-
sation for their trouble, they explained.
Early on the morning of September
Is, the three hunters left Warm Springs
and worked north from the mound. In
q large pasture known as Peterson's
field, they found the trail of their
quarry. Huge paws had left Impressions
in the soft ground and the crushed
grasses of the meadow showed a plain
trail leading toward the Mount Powell
foothills.
Proceeding with all possible haste,
the hunters followed the tracks. The
bear was travelling slowly, loggy and
overburdened from a nights feasting
on several kills. When the hunters
followed the animals tracks into the
brush-covered foothills below Mount
Powell, the fresh condition OF the trail
showed their quarry to be not far off.

 On paper, Crosby rates much stronger than Wilby this season, though the SchoGeld squad was soundly walloped by both Harding and Central, dropping q 37-17 de- cision yesterday afternoon, Schick, Central center, scoring no less than 21 points, while his Crosby opponet, Dave Bartolini, showed the only bit of consistent basket ball play visible from the Water bury angle.

TILDEN CAPTURES END STRAIGHT SET
 WIN OVER VINES

Providence, R. l., Jan 17--4 UP) Bill Tildcn scored Il straight-set victory over Ellsworth Vines in their fifth professional tennis match before a crowd of 4,000 per- sons at Rhode Island Auditorium last night. Scores were 7-5, 6-3s 8-6.
 It was the veterans third victory in tho five matches they have played on their national tour. Their next engagement is scheduled for Cleveland, O., tomorrow night.
 Surprise
 Oddly enough, 1t was the youth- ful Vines who first showed the strain of the tour. At the end of the gruelling final set he had to sit down and rest for few minutes before he could leave the audito- rum. Tilden seemed comparative ly fresh.
 Big Bill played inspired tennis, a contrast to his performance at Boston Monday night when Vines defeated him fin five sets. He daz- zled his young opponent with his cannonball service and forced him into repeated errors. His drives had more length. Vines being constant- ly on the defensive as he raced from side to side of the baselines.

Their player roster, issued today, reveals virtually no attempt to bol. ster the clubs batting strength. Last season they were called the "1Iitless Wonders" Few strangers are found among the 32 names which decorate the list.
 Many MOundsnen
 The Giants have II pitchers Carl Hubbe1l, the screw ball king, tops the mound staff, fianked by Hal Schumacher, Freddy F'itzsimmons and Roy Parmelee. They were the big four of the 1888 season.
 Adolpho Luque, HI Bell and Bill Clark, are the nucleus of the relief brigade, which includes four oth- CTS. Bill Shores, recalled from Kansas City last fall; Al Smith, the southpaw who was retained as coach for observation and training last season; Johnny Salveson of Los Angeles, and the lone new hurler, Joe Bowman, obtained from Portland, Ore.
 Counts On Elm
 Manager Bill Terry expects Hub- bell, Schumacher, Fitzsimmons and Parmelee to function better than ever, and he believes some of the other fingers, particularly Smith, will lend able support.
 There are no actual newcomers among the four catchers or seven outfielders. Gus Mancuso, backed by Paul Richards, is to carry the burden of catching, with Harry Danning and Frank Healcy, both of whom had numerous trials with the Giants, as understudies.
 New Inner Works?
 Most of Terry's experimenting will be carried on in the infield during the training season, to start March 1. at Miami Beach, Fla. Ten infelders are listed, They include two newcomers, George Grantham from the Cincinnati Reds and Fresco Thompson, former Dodger and Philly, who was purchased from Buffalo.

 AT NEW BRITAIN

New Britain, Jan. 17--Roller hockey will return to New Britain next Sunday afternoon when the team which adopted this city as it's home will meet the Lowell club.
 The Portland players. who trans- ferred their equipment here last week after pulling up stakes in the Maine city, arrived in New Britain this noon and tonight were in a long conference with Jack Arute, former polo operator here, and Bill Clancy, who acted as manager for Arute.
 The players wanted Arute to take over the team and guarantee salaries cpd other expenses. Arute refused but did consent to guaran- tee the rental of Stanley Arena. As a result the players will split the net profits. Clancy will prob- ably act as business manager for the team.
 The team will play here every Sunday afternoon and Thursday night.
