Y~ellOwjackets In
Win v Dillon

Billings, Oct. 13.-Four Lau-
rel men played prominent parts
in the gridiron victory credited
to Eastern Montana State Norm
al school Yellowjackets before a
record crowd last Saturday when
the Midland Empire college grid
ders handed the visiting Montana
Normal of Dillon Bulldogs the
small end of a 1876 score.
Jack Milligan starred for the
Yellowjackets by packing the
oval into paydirt territory in the
first few minutes of play. He
also is credited with the second
touchdown early in the third
period.
Melvin Lackman, also of Lau-
rel, started for coach Bjorgum's
first eleven at guard position,
and played o~utstandingly both on
offense and defense.
Rudy Phillips and Marvin Bait,
also from Laurel, carried a fair
share of the duty as right end
and left guard, respectively. Both
are considered to be among the
top men on the squad.
Thursday, Oct. ID, Eastern
meets Montana Mines at Butte
for their second Montana Small
College Conference tilt. The
Jackets return to Daylis field
on Oct. % to play host to Car
roll college, Helena, Saints. To

lege conference championship as

Smith Tells Story
Of MP. Trade Mark

original they have a small black
eye in the white or red portion
and a white eye in the black por-
ton. These eyes are intended
to show that there is a male
germ in the female and a female
germ in the male principle. These
two principles, or the Dual Pow
ers as they are also called, had
the primitive meaning of Yang,
light, and Yin, darkness. Philo-
sophically they stood for certain
positive and negative forces. That
Yang and Yin stand for light
and darkness and the sex or
creative idea is about all there
is to say about the original no
ton as pictorially expressed.
The expansion of the idea is
quite another matter. This Yang
and Yin applied to materialism
allows scope for the vagaries of
every individual who thinks he
understands and can apply it to
explain whatever phenomena come
his way-heat and, cold, light and
darkness, fire and water mind
and matter.
The speaker Smith outlined
how the ancient Chinese philoso-
ply explained the creation of the
universe and all it contains.
The symbol of the Great Mo-
mad is very generally used by
the Chinese in the ordinary af-
fairs of life. Suspended over
doors of residences it is suppos-
ed to ward off evil influences.
The japanese form is also used
in that country as a symbol of
Good luck. In America it has
been found in the basketry and
pottery of Indians and in the
mounds of the Mound Builders.
A monad design formed by the
natural m~eanderings of Trout
creek in Hayden valley of Vel
lowstone park has been observed
by many visitors. Its presence
in the park and the fact that it
is identical with the trademark
of the Northern Pacific, first rail
way to Yellowstone, is regarded
as a singular coincidence.
The speaker was introduced by
j. R. Hebner, program chairman.
B. M. Harris added to the pro-
gram by describing the railroad
show he had recently visited in
Chicago, while o. M. Void re-
lated the story of the monad as
he had heard it.
Visitors at the meeting were

ards of the University of Mon
tana it is necessary to offer sal
aries that will attract and retain
high quality instructors.
Over the year there have beer
ID Montana counties that have
consistently opposed the issues

The speaker expressed the opin-
ion that it is necessary to awaken
the interest of those wanting and
willing to pay for university
facilities and that the measures
should not be allowed to fail by
default.
The six units would be in a
sad plight, he said, if the meas

arise the necessity of setting up

were o. k, Davis accepted this as
surance.
Saying that although he hat
tremendous respect for the office
of president of the United States
he felt free to critically deal with
remarks of a candidate for the
office. He declared the admins
tration has attempted to cause
people to believe the reclamation
is in danger of being scuttled by
Republican controlled congress, al
though the last session appro-
priated over $100,000,000 more
for the program than any pre-
vious session. On the subject Of
water he said he believed that
water arising in the state should
be used first for the benefit of
the state. 1t is possible to build
hundreds of dams within Mon
tana to make it more fertile and
prosperous.
Another topic was soil erosion,
said to have eaten away a third
of U. S. top soil, for which Davis
said the last congress allocated
$500,000,000 for Combating a
most difficult ~peacetime enemy"
The R. E. A. fund was not cur
tailed, but instead was given
$500, 900 700 to carry light and
power to many nor rural homes,
the speaker declared. Later in
his address he said the R. E. A.
is self liquidating and that the
users of the service pay for it.
In reply to the presidents
charge that the tax reduction bill
was a erich mans BILL" Davis
said the bill that became law
over the presidents opposition
cuts off many low-bracket people
from paying taxes and saves the
taxpayers Sd billion.
After declaring himself in
favor of the public roads pro-
gram for which congress appro-
priated 100000 at the last
session, the candidate for con-
gress declared himself as favoring
the draft and military training
because of the emergency COR
fronting the nation.
Other topics included money
we owe," $25S billion; a vague
program about western develop
ment proposed by the admins
tration, involving a SGT billion
pork barrel; extension of govern
ment into every form of business;
dissipation of social security
money through numerous spend
ing avenues of the government;
and appointment of more than
100000 people to federal jobs in
recent months to build a greater
''bread and butter" vote.

are civil service exempt.
Now, it's reported, other Govern
ment units handling military, IN
telligence, security and allied work
would like to get out of civil service
if they can and have a free hand
in hiring and other personnel
actions.
Congress originally gave such
agencies as FBI and Acc the right
to hire outside Of civil service be-
cause of their special kind of work
and the need to hire people especial
ly suited for the jobs. without hav-
ing to take applicants off the civil
service register:
But, as one commission official
remarked the other day, now every
body wants to get into the act" The
commission can be expected to op-
pose any more requests for civil
service exemptions.
Incidentally, Atomic Energy Com
mission employees with civil service
status are very much upset over the
agency's new policy. They fear that
they may be replaced by war service
and temporary employees as well as
by outsiders.
Acc officials. however, say there
is no reason for these employees
to become panicky. They say that
merit will still be recognized in the
agency and that Acc will build up
its own merit system to protect
career employees. In addition, they
promise that the rights and bene-
fits held by the Governments civil
service employees will also be ex-
tended to AEF workers.
