Days Short Full Life
Obituary

Obituary
'Oh, the fates of our poor chill
dren,
Oh, the deaths that they did die
Some got drunk and some wer'
drowned,
Some got choked on CHECKER
pie!"
So goes Colonial lullaby dat
ing almost from Shakespeariar
days; and so echoes the refrain
IN M. C. whenever we think OF
the features for our frontier days
celebration.
How enthused we all were
when first the subject was
broached! "a grand idea," agreed
the populace. Immediately the
Boom Town Builders appointed
an august committee consisting
of Al Brown, George Albright
and Bon Whealdon to meet in
solemn conclave and hatch out
a few feature suggestions.
Cheerfully this superannuated
trio of intelNctuals assembled
for deliveration in the rear of
the Silver bar. Attending and
assisted by Mayor Greene, Earl
Hollingsworth, Bill Zurn, Mike
Chambers, Madge Compton, Mr..
Peterson and other interested
citizenry we settled down on
beer kegs, bar stools and card
tables for a lively session of
scintillating ideas. Great was our
citation over the mental children
conceived and ushered into ex-
istence ere the clock struck the
mystic tones of midnight!
Faith! And we had brought
forth appealing features galore.
Came regular meeting evening
and we dumped our "infants"
into the motherly Cd lap and
care of the B. T. B. club. But,
what an unnatural foster-mother
she proved to be! For she
promptly throttled three Of the
most promising youngsters and
kicked their remains out into a
snow drift. Three days later four
more suffered ignominous deaths
from a diet of planer mill saw
dust. A week passed and two
more were drowned at a stormy
bar.
At last came that sad day when
OF all that brilliant group but
one remained - an Indian pa

BASKETBALL SEASON IS
 NEARING END

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 24.-iR-- Nine weeks of Northern Division Coast Conference play comes to close this weeks with the pace setting Oregon State Beaves need ing only to put together 40 min utes of concerted effort to fashion its first division title since 1922.
 The Slats Gill-coacher Staters come out three times during the week with a tonight and Tuesday night fracas against the Washing ton State College Cougars coming under the crucial" classification
 Two games behind Oregon State ard with a similar three games to play, the Cougars must win all three to co-hold the title. A single win sither tonight or tomorrow for Oregon State and the rest of the games will be matter of go- ing through the motions.
 Two factors favor the Washington State five. The series will be play ed on their Pullman floor and the Cougars have been idle for week working up to the series. Oregon State, on the other hand. comes up to tonights encounter after a sur prisingly tough two games at Mos COW, Idaho, where the University of Idaho Vandals turned in an upset win Friday night, but dropped a 69-35 decision Saturday.
 The Idaho win, incidentally, kept the Vandals from possibly estab- fishing 8 new division mark-that of going through the season with out a win. It was their line entry on the credit side against IA de- feats.
 Two Saturday games wind up the 1947 season. Oregon State invades Eugene, Ore, for a single go against Oregon with the latter needing to post a win to tie the Washington Huskies for third place Washing ton State travels to Moscow for a single tilt with the Vandals.
 Washington closed out it's season over the weekend with a split against Oregon At Saturday 63-51 win gave Coach Hec Edmundson Chargers an 8-8 record and at least a tie for third place.
