he relax at a time like this?
Game warden's cap goes past
office window, gliding nonchal-
antly above Bank Mite crowd.
Strangled cry from your re-
porter brings him in.
And here's the true story from
the. lips of Warden w. H. Quist.
It wasn't Sunday, it was Fri
day. The vio1ators weren't oper-
ating beside the power plant, they
were fishing at little falls on the
opposite side of the hogs back.
They weren't SEEMING, they
weren't spearing, they weren't
dynamiting. They were simply
fishing in the age old tradition
with willow poles and lines.
The warden didn't see them
from the hogs back. He looked
down on them from the road near
Hanson's tourist cabins.
It is true that they ran away.
The warden was forced to drive
through the park, back to the
hogs back. As he approached
someone yelled at the fishermen
a d they scrammed.
There were only three of them.
And his entire seizure was of
the willow poles, some tackle not
worth mentioning and a ragged
old minnow seine.

ChangesUnder
Consideration
COACHES ORGANIZE;
TOM, WALLBLOM
ARE OFFICERS

Several plans for revising the
sub-disTict and district high
school basketball elimination set
up were advanced at a meeting
here Thursday evening at which
coaches of district ten formed an
organization and elected Ben
Tom and Charles Wallblom of
Redwood Falls as president and
secretary and Joe Hartman of
New Ulm, vice president.
Twenty-one coaches and as
sistants representing II schools
were present.
One scheme advanced was to
reduce the field to 16 teams, play
two rounds one weekend and fin
ish the meet the following week
end as is done in some districts
including the twelfth, played this
year at Olivia. Since there will be
10 schools in the district next
year, with the entrance of San
born, this involves eliminating
two teams. One idea was to
scratch the two weakest, another
to let the two strongest enter af-
ter the field has been reduced to
two other teams. A problem arose
Immediately in how to pick the
two strongest, or the two weak
est.
Revision of the present system
is urged by some of the smaller
schools, who contend that sub
district play wears down the win
ming entrants while teams of the
larger schools are getting COM
paratiVe rest. Coaches of larger
schools contend this is offset by
the opportunity sub-district win
ners have to become accustomed
to tourney play and the tourney
floor Holding the two best teams
out until the semi-finals would
give them a further advantage,
others suggest.
The various plans will be
worked over and submitted to
all the coaches for further study
after which they will vote on re-
concentrations to the district
committee, made up of superin-
tendents. The coaches will meet
again May 16 at Springfield.
Oscar Lubke, Montevideo
coach, was here to assist with the
organizing and discussed the re-
giona' tra"'l ~-cet at Montevideo

plars for the district ten track
