Lions Defeat CCC-lD
In A Thrilling B. b. Tilt

On Monday evening the Brown
ing Lions made it2 straight wins
over the CCC.ID quintet as
against one loss.
The game started cut fast with
both teams finding the basket
with regularity. With Wetzel
hitting the hoop from all angles
the Lions spurted to the front
and were never headed after the
first few minutes of the first
quarter, the Lions were leading
81 to II at half time.
The third quarter slowed down
quite alot. but the fourth stanza
was a thriller with the CCC-JD
team gradually narrowing the
lead. In the last few minutes
the Lions again started to make
some points and were leading SO
to % with few seconds left.
Just before the game ended Jun
eau made a long shot which
made the score SO to 80. The
gun cut the CCC-ID team short
in a last quarter rally.

Attorney-General Rules New
School Election Law Invalid

Qualifications of electors Der.
mltted to vote at school elections
have been materially changed BY
an act of the last legislative as
sembly and many persons who
have voted in the past at such
elections no longer possess the
necessary qualifications.
The new law was approved on
March l by Gov. Roy E. Ayers
and became effective Immediate
ly thereafter. 1t will therefore
be applicable for school elections
on April l.
Qualifications of electors are
set out in the measure as follows:
Every citizen Of the United
States 81 years old who has re-
sided in the state of Montana for
one year and 30 days in the
school district next preceding
the election and whose name ap-
pears on the tax rolls of the
county of which that sch Dol dis
trict is situate or whose wife or
husbands name appears on the
tax rolls of that county. or who
is parent. guardian or person
having the custody and control
of any child then attending
school in such district. or who
will be eligible to attend such
school during the term that the
school officers then to be elected
shall hold office. may vote there
at"
The complications arising from
the new law will be many. I'm.
der the old law any qualified
elector could vote at a school
election. Under the new law,
however, person may be a
qualified city and county elector
and yet may not be able to partl-
cipate in school election unless
he or she is the parent or guard
ian of a child. the owner of prop
erty appearing on the tax rolls
or whose husband or wife owns
property.
The act will unquestionably,
it was pointed out by school Of
ticials, exclude many teachers
and single persons from voting
at school elections, az they do
not have property listed on tax
rolls and cannot meet the other
qualifications.

Dog Is Regular Pupil
At School in Vermont

FAIRFIELD. VT.-Buddy Pelkey,
four-year-old dog, is a third-grade
pupil at the Soule district school.
In three years Buddy has not missed
a single session and has been tardy
only once, according to Miss Loret-
ia league, teacher.
Buddy Is the constant companion
OF 13-year-old Bernard Pelkey. A
black. wirehaired Scotch terrier, he
walks mile twice a day in going
to and from school with his master.
In the schoolroom he usually re-
tires to what the pupils now call
''Buddy's corner" and remains
there quietly until Bernard leaves
the room. At recess time or during
fire drill Buddy follows the other
pupils out Of the room, always
bringing up the rear.
When he first started coming to
school the pupils paid more atten-
ton to Buddy than they did to me"
said Miss league. But the novelty
Of having him about soon wore off
and now he could hardly be called
disturbing influence.
by pointing out the dogs devo-
tion to Bernard as result of the
boys kindly treatment of him, we
are able to use Buddy as an object
