FOLLOWING THROUGH


Tonight at the High School
Gym, the first half of the Island
City Basketball League schedule
will come to an end. The standing
of the. clubs so far shows that the
Park Tigers are in first place but
the occupant of the second rung
of the ladder is yet in doubt. To-
nights games may give the Bak-
ers or the High School five .undis-
puted possession of the runner-up
position. Which team will it be?
The first contest tonight will
get under way at 7:30 o'clock,
and will bring together the tail
end WPA quintet and the Busy
Bee Bakers. The Park Tigers
will battle it out with the High
School five in the nightcap. The
Bakers have won five games and
lost three; the School boys have
won four games and lost four. If
the ABC team wins tonight and
the Bakers lose they will end the
first half tied for second place.
Anyway fans look at the situation
shows that an interesting and
hard-fought doubleheader is in
the offing for tonight at the High
School Gym.

DOINCS AROUND THE GOLF LINKS
(By GRAVY

Everything is in readiness for
the tournament which will begin
the coming Sunday and run for
the following three Sundays. That
is because some of the players are
unable at present to play other
than those days. However, you
are at liberty to play your ~
holes when and how you wish; the
only stipulation being that you
notify the pro or Kemp at the
starter shop before you start your
round. The tournament will end
on Feb. 9Th and will be of the
handicap variety. The way it will
work is this: you play your II
holes and make score of $50
Then subtract your handicap
which would be 40 10 on each
eighteen holes) and that leaves
you a net score of 80. The lowest
net score will win a prize and the
second best will also get some
thing. The cost to enter will be
small and it is hoped that 20 or
more players will take advantage
of the new competition. For fur
Their particulars or explanation see
Mr.. Dodge or yours truly.

Many of the boys were on the
job yesterday getting in a few
practice rounds and incidentally
having a bit of fun. 1t seems that
Samuel Ephraim Harris. our
genial Postmaster, can play neat
round when he wishes. He has
heard all about this tournament
business and is determined to win
something. So hee took Bill
Bruner for a partner which gives
Sam lots of ballast and then pro-
ceeded to shoot two ASS. Bill had
an SO; he got lost on the back
nine and didn't find himself until
the last hole. The two opponents
of Sam and Bill were Charlie
Salas with 90 and Louis Cruick-
shank with SO but Charlie and pal
lost 6 up.

The writer had the pleasure
yesterday of seeing the first round
of golf played in less strokes than
par. The maker of same was
George Dodge, pro at the course.
He played the last nine in "a,
making a birdie on number for
the beautiful score. He did not
miss drive and every second shot
was on the green except number
5 when he was on in the regula-
ton three strokes. He did not
putt more than twice on any
green and most were l putt

when you play that guy in the
future. Along in the same crowd
were Willie Watkins and Sam

There has been a rumor started
that the Fort Peck Press was re.
sponsible for publishing statements
to the effect that McCone City was

utterly false, since by actual rec

ed to cooperate to the fullest
possible extent in publication of
progressive news both concerning
McCone City and the other project
towns, and deroSative assertions
have been carefully avoided.
