man team, predominantly a passing
weapon lead by the arm of Tom
Paul, tossed passes last Friday af.
ternoon at the University field for
double or nothing and doubled
their previous win over the Sank
Centre Junior College Buccaneers
81 to 0.
The Johnnies had ground the
Buccaneers to defeat earlier in the
season IA to 0 with this same Paul
lad tossing passes to lead the touch
down marches.
In spite of a lOp-sided score,
Coach Ray Schwartz this week
wasn't minimizing the work of
his Buccaneers. They fell down
on pass defense, but that Lad
Paul can spot pass on a dime.
Line play he felt gave an edge
to the Sank Centre crew as
Bohne and Thompson rejoined
the lineup.
That Tom Paul tossed most of
the passes for substantial gains,
scored a IS yard run on an inter-
cepted pass, and booted three sue
cessive placements after touch
downs. Coupled with Machildon,
Paul was faultless in passing. Mac
hildon starred crossing pay dirt
twice. First he shared long pass
from Paul to score. His second
came by way of the same route.
After making the catch he lateral
ed to a teammate who carried the
ball to the one yard line where he
fumbled. Machildon recovered for
the Johnny score in the end zone
Zins too tossed a touchdown pass
He flung to Steve Delyea late in
the final period to complete scor-
ing for the Collegeville men. Blank.

Manufacturing Pays
1880 Of Wages Listed
Study of State Reports on
Payrolls Shows Importance of
Industries in All Counties

Furnishing % per cent of the
wages paid by employers covered
by the Minnesota unemployment
compensation law, manufacturing
constituted the most important in
dustry in terms Of payrolls in TWEEN
ty counties of the state and formed
an imposing proportion of the in
come of the people in many other
counties, according to a new study
of income made public in st. Paul
today.
The information was contained in
a report of the Minnesota Resourc-
es Commission by ROLAND F. Hat
field, assistant professor of st.
Thomas College, as part of the
work of the committee on income
of the commission, prepared with
assistance of the WPA.
The report made available COM
prehensive data on the wages paid
by the ten major industries in
every county of the state, Mime
apolis, st. Paul and Duluth and
brought out, not only the import
ance Of manufacturing, but other
leading industries to all parts of
the state. Figures reported to the
state under the unemployment COM
pensation law were used as a basis
for they afford perhaps the most
comprehensive index available of
the wages and salaries paid. Agri-
culture, public and domestic service
are not included, but income from
these sources show up to some
extent in income of other groups.
One of the interesting develop
ments from the study was the re-
violation that manufacturing is the
most important industry in so many
Of the rural counties Of the state.
The twenty counties in which man
ufacturing Is the leading source of
payrolls follow, together with the

NO CHANGE in
SURPLUS FOOD
PROGRAM HERE
Stamp Plans Operation To
BE Confined To Twin
Cities For Present

There will be no change in the
program for distribution Of federal
surplus commodities in this coun-
ty, according to word received
Wednesday from Walter w. Finke,
director of the Division of Social
Welfare. Mr.. Finke made this an
nouncement as federal and state
officials began making preparations
for establishing the stamp plan
for distributing surplus commod-
tiles to the needy people Of Min
neapolis and st. Paul.
"All persons outside the Twin
Cities, who are entitled to surplus
commodities, will continue to re-
ceive them through the County We'll
fare Boards representatives as
heretofore" said Mr.. Finke. The
Hot Lunch program in all rural
areas also will continue to receive
surplus food, he said.
Mr.. Finke said that while the
stamp plan might be extended to
some of the second class cities of
the state, and ultimately to the
rural areas, there is nothing now to
indicate when such change may
take place.
In st. Paul and Minneapolis
when the plan gets into operation,
relief clients will be able to obtain
surplus foods at all food stores.
They will pay for these purchases
with blue stamps which they will
obtain when they buy yellow stamps
with which to purchase foods not
on the surplus list. With each $1.0C
spent for yellow stamps, the buyer
will receive free so cents in blue
stamps, the blue stamps being
good only for surplus commodities.

sured 25-35c, current top being

the upturn for that class measuring
25-3Oc. Choice light sows on Tues
day brought $6.40.
Cattle receipts decreased slightly
as compared with last week but the
decrease was on the side of grain

cows arrived more freely and the
supply of feeding cattle was rel
atively liberal. Yearling slaughter
steers and heifers held about
steady, weightier steers and mature
grass fat killers ruling weak to

feeding steers were draggy and
weak. Choice lightweight fed
steers made $1O.25-1075, compar-
able mediumweights $975-10.25,
grass fat steers $8.25 down. Most
grassy butcher heifers earned $500
775. Gamer and cutter cows bulk
ed at $3.50-450, beef cows at $4.75-
SIS. strictly good cows reaching
S6.75. Sausage bulls topped at
$6.75. The practical top on stock
calves was $1,000. Most yearling
stockers sold at $500 down and the
majority of feeding steers at $3.50
$50.
Strong shipper support enabled
sellers to hold fat lamb prices
steady despite generous marketing.
Good and choice lambs brought
$8.75 to packers, and shippers Sec
ured "a loads at $8.85-9.OO. Gull to
medium lambs turned at $6.OO-8.OO

$3.50-4.00, and common and medium
grades at $2.0O-3.OO. Feeding lambs

Coutinho and asked II her pupils
could give recital in place of the
meeting. The children, instead of
being appalled, by the idea Of having
only two days to prepare for a con-
cert, were delighted. They had
learned the lesson Nine. Coutinho
had taught Of spreading the JOY of
music. The next two days were
spent getting adjusted to the old
and battered piano in the town hall.
The townspeople turned out in a
body for the concert and it was a
huge success.
Besides the many young people
who owe their love of music to Nine.

Mime. Cout;nho, Noted Pianist
And Teacher, Dies Here
Inspired Pupils
In Appreciation Of
Joy Of Music

Nine. Louise Coutinho,, concert
pianist and teacher. who helped
many young people enjoy the study
Of music, died last night at her
studio home after a serious illness
Of three years, through which she
continued to teach music.
Born in Lisbon, Portugal, 48 years
ago OF a French father and an Eng
ish mother, Nine. Coutinho in 1912
married DR.. Joaquin de Siqueira
Coutinho, who was then connected
with the monarchial government Of
Portugal.
After the overthrow of the mon
archy, DR.. Coutinho came to the
United States, where Nine. Cou-
tinho and their small son joined
him In 1917. He is now a professor
in the Foreign Service School at
Georgetown University and also
teaches at Catholic University.
Nine. Coutinho's whole life was
devoted to music, even in the years
after her arrival in America, when
she did her own housework and
cared for her two children.
She kept up her practicing and
was never too tired to play. That
was one of the things she later in
stilled in her pupils, friends say.
Part of the joy OF music, she used
to tell them, was to play graciously
when asked, instead of complaining
Of being unprepared or not liking
the piano.
Appeared Before Royalty.
Nine. Coutinho got her musical
education at the Royal Conserva-
tory OF Music in Lisbon, from which
she was graduated with the highest
honors offered by the school, the
distinction of being graduate
laureate" In those years she gave
more than one command perform
ance before the royal heads of
Portugal.
Later she studied in the Sternes-
chenes Conservatory in Berlin,
where her masters were two dis
tinguished musicians we'll known in
American musical circles, Egon
Petri and Eugene d'Albert.
Evening star., 1939-10-03

Ten years ago, when she felt her
children could spare her, she opened
studio and started taking pupils.
She had already taught her daugh-
ter to play well and now she took
on about 80 young people. Gentle
and thoughtful, she inspired the
children with interest in their work
by giving monthly recitals. FIRE.
quently she provided little prizes
for her youngest students.
In the summer of 1885 she took
house in Berkeley Springs, w. Va,
and filled it with her young music
pupils. From morning till night
the house resounded with their
practicing, but everybody enjoyed it..
Pupils Replace Speaker.
It was during that summer that
large political rally was planned
for the town. Billboards and posters
were sent out to all the surround
ing country to hear the candidate
who was to speak, and people had
started pouring into the town two
days beforehand when the commit
tee in charge learned that the can
didate was i'll and couldn't come.
Desperate, the distressed chairman
of the meeting called on Nine.
