Zero Weather
For Two Weeks

With harsh wintry conditions
prevailing for the second week,
this section is not. escaping some
OF the unpleasantries of the long
and tortuous winter of 1861.
Early last W eek local ther-
mometers took an abrupt drop
and recorded as low as q below
zero. Considerable wind at times
has made the cold more penetrat-
ing. With but little snow this
season, only shallow drifts have
developed, thus causing no i'm
pediment to movement of traffic.
Through this week the mer-
curry has lowered around zero
most of the time. Threats of chin
ooking came to naught.

Feb. IS Deadline
For '48 Plates

All Montana automobile owners
must get license plates by Feb
ruary Is, C. L. Sheridan, state
highway patrol supervisor, this
week reminded drivers and urged
them to obtain plates as
soon as possible to avoid la t
minute rushes on III e county
treasurer'S offices.
Only one plate is being furnish
ed this year and drivers are re-
quired to place this plate on the
rear of the car, to remove last
years's paper sticker from the
windshield and to remove other
plates from the car.
The state had originally plann-
ed to have two plates in 1913. but
when the board of examiners last
spring attempted to obtain COM
mltmentS on steel, s t eel pro-
ducers were reluctant to assure
supplies. Consequently. the state
prison which manufactures all
plates used steel on hand, which
was sufficient for one plate for
each Montana car.
The board authorized one plate
under emergency powers, since
state law requires two plates un-
less the board deems a change
necessary. Throughout the war,
drivers had one plate and in one
year had composition plates to
replace the steel ones.

District Tourney
"opens At Cut
Bank Thursday;
s Teams Battle
(By Jack Billedeaux)

Browning drew h e Oilmont
TroJans as opposition at meet
ing of coaches last Saturday to
seat and pair teams for the COM
ing tournament at Cut Bank,
February 10, 20 and 21. Brown
ing with play Oilmont Thursday
night.
They were seated as follows:
Cut Bank first, Shelby second.
Browning third, Sunburst fourth.
Conrad fifth, Waller sixth, Oh
mont seventh and Sweetgass
eighth.
Sunburst will open the tourna-
ment by meeting the weak Sweet
grass team Thursday afternoon
and Shelby will play the ever
dangerous Waller quint to round
out the afternoon games. Brown
ing will open the night game by
playing the very dangerous OIL
mont team and Cut Bank will
close the first day by pairing with
a hot and cold Conrad hoop squad.
AS the tournament lines up there
will be 8 teams which are ex-
pected to win the first 8 places,
these being the Cut Bank Wolves.
Shelby Coyotes and Browning
Indians.
Shelby got break by b e in g
seated econd and getting a
second night pairing with a medi-
OGRE Sunburst squad while
Browning and Cut Bank will
probably clash the second night
if the they come though the first
game Thursday. \
During the season, Cut Bank
dumped Browning twice but lost
to the Shelby team and Browning
although defeated by Cut Bank
completely upset everything by
hating Shelby 1926.
AS in many o t h things, it
only depends on which team is
on in tournament and season
record has nothing at all to do
W h the final verdict of the
tournaments. Cut Bank is favor
ed because of the season record
and they will be playing on their
home floor while it seems to be
anyone's guess as to who might
surprise between Browning and
Shelby, and while we are on this
subject we must not forget the
Sunburst Refiners. The Refners
have nice team and recently
took the little five tournament at
Waller.
The Indians will be on their
toes and if they lose the second
night, they will be cunning for
the thirteenth game. which will
give them a chance for second.
So. let's back the Indians and
give them support and they will
try their best to bring the trophy
back to Browning.
The Indians will round out
their season by playing the Great
Falls Reserves there tomorrow
night.

Showdown Threatened

By Nelson M. Shepard

A final showdown was believed de-

In the latest exchange Of notes
between the two departments, Un-

"I am strongly Of the opinion
that the continued availability OF
the West Potomac Park to the Navy
would be an economic as well as q
material benefit to the Govern
ment," he wrote. 1T Is earnestly
requested that the Department OF
the Interior give consideration to
the possibility Of authorizing con-
tinued use Of this land by the Navy
until ut least June 80. 1919.
THE Department OF the Navy
realizes the Department Of the In
terror has made its plans for dredg-
ing operations and reconstruction
Of the rose garden in the West
Potomac Park area. and also realizes
that no legal limitation has been
placed on use of the land. In con-
sideration of those facts, the De-
partment OF the Navy Is making
preparation at this time to realo-
cate its personnel from these bar
racks in order that removal Of the
buildings may be accomplished by
the dates stipulated. However,
