LOCOMOTIVES GUESTS
OF ROTARY At DINNER

Laurel Locomotives, a team that
won many honors and much renown
during the football and basketball
seasons just past, were guests Tues
day evening of the Rotary club at
a $3.50 dinner. With the boys were
their coach and other members of
the school faculty. The dinner re-
placed the clubs usual noon lunch
con.
The program committee was rep
resented by o. M. Void who ex-
planned the motives inspiring the
affair and the pleasure the club was
experiencing in entertaining the
young athletes. Campbell Calvert
extended the clubs welcome and
Fred w. Graft, superintendent of
schools, presented Dick McMullen,
instructor in the junior high school;
Leon Foote, principal of the junior
high school and coach of grade
teams, and Glenn Anderson, senior
high school coach. John Macdonald,
high school principal, vas unable to
be present.
Anderson briefly recounted the
Locomotives accomplishments in
both football and basketball during
the recent respective seasons, but
paid most attention to the browning
event, Laurel's first participation in
a state tournament. The team from
Laurel was one of the eight from
nearly 200 Montana high schools
who won the right to joust at Glas-
gov. The Locomotives were award
ed humbly entering lists and then
upsetting the dope. In the first
round they leaped from %obscurity
TO pleasant prominence, followed by
The fortunes of top-flight competi-
ion from the states best. Two
,urned ankles didn't help, although
he Laurel club was regarded for
l time as a possible champion.
After recounting some of the high
lights of the Glasgow contests the
.oach then introduced in turn the
team members. Each briefly
commented, the burden of their re-
marks being that they had had a
rood time and, in the last of the
that they hoped to attend
he state tournament next year.
.eo Foley, club manager with four
ears of experience, ended the
cams part in the program by Civ
ng a resume of the many things
e saw, heard and thought at Glas- I
ow.
AS Anderson concluded he said I
hat material makes coaches and ?
nat although he had met T.
Bennett, his predecessor as coach
Laurel, he was grateful to Ben
EFT for the material he had trained.

banding program of CARE, non
profit government-approved cooper
ative organization at so Broad
stree, New York.

 ROUNDUP
By HUGH FULLERTON JR.

NEW YORK. Nov. 8.-R-Is your hair silver? Your teeth gold? Are your eyes bleary? Do you remember when the Big Three" provided the top football games in the nation?
 That's just reminder that the Big Three still is in existence and playing pretty good amateur foot ball-as today's Harvard Princeton tussle may prove. and that all the traditional background and col or of intercollegiate football goes right back to Princeton, Yale and Harvard and a few other colleges that played in the l870's.
 Th!s is reminlscing about the bygone glories of Walter Camp, A. A. Stagg, Frank Hinkey, the Poe brothers, Snake Ames, Frank Hallo- well, Tack Hardwick, Charley Brick ley, etc.
 Heck, this Army-Notre Dame af- tair everyone is talking about to- 1ay is just Q Johnny lately eeries that began in 1913.

FIGCERs. BY JEGGERS

Speaking Of Army vs. Notre Dame. this dept can't quite fathom the reasoning that the Irish have had tough schedule and the Cadets 6 hard one.
 Tossing out the two admittedly tough games, Army has faced Vil- lanova, which has lost only one other game; Washington and Lee. co-leader Of the southern confer ence, disappointing VPI, and Col orado, still in the running for the Big Seven title
 Among Notre Danes rivals, Pitt, Iowa and Navy have won one ma- jcr game apiece and Nebraska has beaten two comparatively weak sis ters. Purdue has looked good lately but not until after holding the Irish to 15-po.nt margin.
