Bulldogs Complete Undecided Season With
Almost Double the Score of All Opponents

December. Although the local
hoopsters maintained a lead
during most of the game, they
had a margin of only six points,
81 to As, at the final gun. Laurel
scored more points against the
Hardin cagers than any otner
opponent.
The first stringers include
four juniors and a senior. No
single player can be selected as
outstanding. All five play con-
sistently good ball. Bob Saun-
ders has been best scorer, tax
ing or tying for high point hon
ors in Is of the % games. Tom
my Perkins, a newcomer to "A"
squad basketball this year, had
the same distinction in five
games, Donald Hammer in four,
Bill Schaller, substitute forward
in two, and Kunau, also a Sec
ond-stringer, in one.
Saunders made his scoring
record for the season against
Laurel, when he picked up q
points. "Hoop-happy Henry"
Hammer, not so consistent a
scorer, but always an effective
ball handler and guard, had
high mark for the season with
"a against Park City and %
against Columbus. Tommy Per-
kins' best mark, Is, was made
in another tilt with the Cou-
gars.
Vernon OFT, who makes any
where from six to 10 points
during almost any game, has
proved a dependable center ana
anchor man for the quint, and

In the % games played dur
ing the regular season, the Bull.
dogs tailed a total Of 1,249
points against 645 for their op-
ponents.
Hardin's hoop-happy cage
sters tailed 70 or more points
in three games, two against
Colstrip and one against Hy-
sham and had 60 or more in
seven contests. In many Of these
tits, first %stringers played only
about half of the time.
This is the most successful
season for high school basket
ball here for which a record Is
available. Competition in Dis
trict v this year was not as
strong as usual, which gave the
local basketeers a higher scor-
ing tally than they might 9TH
erWise have had
Several games played out of
the district, however, demon
strated that the local lads
could give almost any team in
this part of Montana a good
contest.
The Sheridan, Wyo., quintet,
which will appear in a posi-
season game next Tuesday,
came the nearest to defeating
the Bulldogs. The local lads
trailed in almost their entire
game with Sheridan at the in
vitational tournament here III
December, pulling ahead in the
final quarter to win, 80 to 80.
The Laurel Locomotives also

competition during a basketball

SOIL PRACTICES
APPROVED

A total of "a soil and water
conservation practices have
been approved for the Agricul-
turai Conservation program in
Big Horn county, George c.
Miller, county AGA chairman,
has announced.
These practices, Miller said,
are included in the county 1947
handbook, which will be made
available to farm and ranch
operators in the county. From
this handbook each operator
may select the practices which
he feels will be of most benefit
to his unit this year and will
indicate his choice when he fills
out his 1947 farm plan and, in
the case of livestock men, his
grazing land management plan.
The 1947 program is based
upon real grass roots Sugges-
tionS this year, Miller says. In
1947, the AGA committees made
a county survey Of
conservation needs and then
recommended at o n
practices to meet those needs.
Their recommendations were
used in formulating the ma
tlonal conservation outline from
which state and county hand
books were adapted.
Besides practicec selected
from the Montana state hand
book, Big Horn county will have
a special practice to offer TO
farm and ranch operators, de-
signed to meet a local conser-
walton problem. This special
practice for Big Horn county
is a cultural method for the
control of alfalfa weevil for
this coming season. Up to ten
per cent of the funds allocat-
ed for conservation payments
In this county can be used tc
promote the use of this special
practice.
Big Horn county farmers are
asked to double their flax seed
ed acreage for 1947. M%ontana's
flaxseed goal for the year is
set at 214,00O acres, compared
with 10000 acres seeded in 1915

Here With Initial Games P|ayed%6
Two Teams Elininuted
In Lost Nights
Tits: Comes Continue

With bracketing complicated
by the entry of ten teams, the
District v basketball tourna-
ment got under way here last
night, with Rosebud and Su-
matra eliminated, and Custer
scheduled to meet the coded
Bulldogs in tonight's feature
tilt at 9 p. m. Sumatra was I'M
able to reach Hardin and for
feited the game to Custer.
A preliminary between the
Crow Agency and Hardin eighth
grades was played, with Crow
Agency winning, Al to 81.
Hysham was playing Forsyth
and Worden was competing
against Colstrip in the contests
this afternoon.

one of this districts two entries
in the Southern division meet
at Laurel March 6, 7 and 8.

tournament. Competition for
second place is expected to be
extremely close, however, with
Forsyth, Worden and St. Pat
rick's the leading contenders.
Several other outfits In the
district, however, need only to
click to find themselves in the
running with the coded teams.
Custer, especially, with a poor

es and school colors, are as fol-
lows:

FAVORS WORK IN
MISSOURI BASIN

In a statement before the
House Appropriations committee
this week, Congressman Wesley
A. D'Ewart said he believes the
continued orderly development
of the Missouri basin soil, wa
ter and power resources is a
program essential to the ma
tons welfare which can be
carried forward without endan-
gering the efforts to balance the
budget and reduce the national
debt.
D'Ewart explained that the
Montana projects in the Mis-
souri, plan are "of great value
to Montana and will contribute
materially to the prosperity of
the entire nation. They are q
definite forward step in the
development of the West, and
compatible with the economical
functionfng of the government,
since their present cost is rela-
lively small compared to future
benefits"
The congressman asked ap-
proval of the Bureau of Recla-
nation budget request for 1913
expenditures on six Montana
projects, five of which are in
the planning stage and one of
which will be completed next
year. No requests were made in
the budget for funds for new
construction,
The Savage project, adjoining
the Lower Yellowstone project
near Sidney, can be "substan-
TALLY completed next year with
$300,000, D'Ewart said, and will
provide irrigation for an add
tional 1900 acres.
Other budget requests which
DEWart wants approved are
for planning and surveys on
the Marias project near Havre,
1923 900; the Montana division
of the Missouri -Souris project,
$25O,000; the Glasgow Bench
unit, 100000; the Hardin unit,
100000 the Canyon Ferry unit
near Helena, $4,000, and the
South Bench unit.
