TO AN OVERSEAS M

One of the first two American
Indians ever to fly the Atlantic
was Staff Sgt. Barney Old Coy
ote, a former student at Hardin
high school. Barney was the
navigator on the plane which
made the trip safely to some
where in Africa.
Principal J. N. Thompson has
characterized Barney as one OF
the best Indian students who
have ever gone to high school
in Hardin. His ability to write
won MIN a position on the staff
Big Horn, and he was frequently
called upon to exhibit his skill
in rope twirling.
If carney had not wanted to
do his "bit" for Uncle Sam he
would have graduated with the
class of "41". He joined the Air
Corps on December "a, 1941, and
received his basic training and
earned his wings at Tydall Field,
Florida. He is the son of Barney
Old Coyote, ST.. of Crow Agency,
Montana, and is at present sta
toned somewhere in Africa.

LOCALS DEFEAT
CARBON COUNTY
Ben Pedse. Hordin Center.
Scores IS Points
For Locals

The local Bulldogs defeated
Red Lodge SO to 81 last Friday
night in an exciting game which
displayed Hardin's ability for
team work.
Ben Pease, center for the
locals, made 10 points, 9 field
goals and one free throw for
high honors for both teams. Ben
is second to Pauley in height,
and is the pivot man from the
hole, where he makes the most
of his points. Ben is an outstan-
ding player and is fast on toot
and as a thinker in any ball
game.
During the first quarter both
teams we're feeling each other
out. Hardin started early with
team work that didn't end until
the final period. Red Lodge drew
first blood but at the end OF the
first period the score was 9 to b
in favor of Hardin.
In the second quarter, the
game rolled a little faster with
both teams fighting harder.
Hardin was trying to keep the
lead, and Carbon County was
trying to overcome 1.-THE half
time score was II to II, with the
locals still leading.
During the second half Red
Lodge came back stronger, but
the Bulldogs were determined
not to be outdone by their OPP
ponents. Red Lodge made ten
points to Hardin's nine. Both
teams played smoother ball than
at any time during the first
half. The third quarter count
was Hardin 26, Red Lodge, 81.
In the final period both teams
went a little wild. In the Last
four minutes of playing time
Hardin started substituting, with
Red Lodge following to finish
the time. The game ended SO for
Hardin and q for Red Lodge.

MANUAL TRAINING CLASS
CONSTRUCTS INLAY WORK

The manual training III class
has several different projects
under way, but the most impor-
tant one is a form of inlay
work. The boys are building
lamps, tables, chairs, and bowls
from wood of different kinds
which they glue together to
make a design. The preparation
in making these items is to sell
ect the wood for its appearance
when finished. The next step
is to square the sides and glue
them together. After several
weeks of drying, the wood is
ready for the long and accurate
job of turning the object out on
the lathe. Next comes the long
process of finishing the project,
This is one of the hardest jobs
given in the course of manual
training.

board of education in district
17H.
However, in showing our real
appreciation, we will have to
take more care in the treatment
of the books. Books are not just
paper, ink, and glue, as so many
think they are. They are alive
with adventures, romance, ex-
element, and inspiration. Con-
slider this and take care of them
in the proper manner. In this
way, the colors will remain
bright and the titles still be in
teresting to those who seek t1

Plan. for pefeat

Some two million Americans came
home from France in 1018-19 with the
story that the major German weakness,
as fighters, was lack Of Imagination, irli-
tiative and the ability to extemporize in
q hurry When World War II began, 1t
appeared for time that two million
doughboys were wrong, or else German
mentality had been completely revamped
in mere IS years. Nazis invading
Poland, France and the Low Countries
showed great capability whether in the
mass, under skilled officers, or off on
their own in little units ranging down to
individuals. Now we learn that the
A. E. F.. was correct. Germans cannot
fight except according to plan. They
resemble a football team under an auto
cratic coach. They are given wide
variety of plays, each to fit particular
need, and are drilled intensively in recog-
ntzing the occasion for each play and
executing 1t efficiently. So long as no
emergency unforeseen by the war college
strategists arises, they look good and
are good. The moment set-up arises
for which they were given no play, they
can think Of nothing except to fight
blindly and take whipping
These thoughts arise from new details
have come to hand. If the Nazis had not
been completely dependent upon slavishly
following elaborate plans, Britain would
have fallen three years ago and the Axis
would have won the war. The invasion
of Britain was to follow a minutely-
scheduled air bltz so many days to
demolish coast Notifications, so many
days to destroy the airfields, SO many
days to break morale by running London
and to smash the islands conmunica-
tions - five weeks of bombing, and then
the end of the British Empire.
But the schedule was trifle off. The
blitz left the coast just as 1t was about
to achieve it's objective there; 1t left the
airfelds just as 1t threatened to tie them
up disastrously; 1t failed to break British
morale by the damage to London. A little
variation in that plan or better yet from
the dictators' standpoint, last-minute
shift to substitute summer invasion for
the preliminary blitz-and there would
no longer be an England. It is comfort
ing to think about such things. It Is
because of them, and Hitler's errors, that
we are on the way to victory.

The Proof of the Pudding

General Norman T. Kirk, head of the
Army's huge 100000 officers, 100000
enlisted mem Medical Corps, in recent
statement said that the United States
Army Is haler and healthier than any
Army has ever been in any war. And
that Is something for every mothers son
Of us to remember in this country.
How can it be that q nation which
mas built one OF the worlds largest armies
n scant two years, can have such a
aecord? The answer is self evident. First,
under a form of government that has
encouraged individual initiative and I'M
Amited opportunity, American medicine
Has been leading the world in preventing
and curing disease. Second, under such
system, citizens of the United States,
including the boys who went into the
Army, have an outstanding health rec
ord. Third, large percentage of the
practicing physicians who helped bring
the health record of the United States
to its present high standard, were alb
sorbed into the Medical Corps
For your own sake, remember this when
you hear political proposals to socialize
the American medical system in line with
European countries which have no rec
ord to compare with private medicine in
the United States and its armed forces.
