Assembly Line Methods Boost
MOntana's Milk Production
Continued from Page u

The entrance door to the Hepps'
straight-line parlor and each of the
gates on the milking stalls are con-
trolled from the mixers alley by
rope-and-pulley arrangements. The
cows, in holding pen next to the
parlor, enter and leave by them
selves. Feeding, too, is done from
the alley.
The Hepps built grain hoppers in
the loft of the milking parlor, plac-
ing one directly over each stall.
Chutes drop from these 800-pound
hoppers to the stalls. The mixer
need only pull a slide, measure the
grain against guaged glass window
in the side of the chute, then pull
second slide to feed the cow. Her
man makes it few-second job.
The Hepps' milking parlor, their
cow-to-can milk pipeline, their feed
ing arrangements and other prac-
tees have made dairy work almost
a pleasure. Everything is easier"
Herman points out. "No STOPPING to
get at the cows, no carrying the
milk. With the loafing shed and
holding pen, the cows come in
cleaner. The floor here, land he
waves at the mixers alley, sis al
ways clean"
Income, too, is relatively high
these days. More important, though,
dairy income is stable, month in and
month out. In the 80 years of Hepp's
experience, prices have been both
good and bad. But they're been
good enough that he worked up from
1aborer in 1928 to owner of the dairy
in 1885.
1t is this stability of income that
has, in the last year or two, in
fluenced a significant number OF
Montana farmers to return to milk
ing. These farmers-men like r. A.
Ely of Teton County-may have had
many reasons to quit milking when
they did. But income is the big rea-
son they started up again.
Ely, for example, bottled and re-
tailed milk from his 80 cows until
1850. Then the labor problem hit
him hard so he quit and sold off the
older cows. 81 intended to sell the

Squad Cutting Task

Speciol Dispotch to The Stor

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 15.-
Curly Lambeau cut the Red
skins squad to 35 players today,

future reference.
The head coach did a lot of
pencil work as lectures replaced
some of the squads legwork.
Trying to decide which men will
be around after the next chop.
probably the day after the Rams
game next Wednesday. was the
first item on the agenda.
Lambeau believes he has his
best 35 men spotted, allowing
for a change here and there.
After that he's stumped. He must
cut to 33 players before the
opening league game with the
Cardinals in Chicago on Sep
tember 27, and three of those
on the approved list are Paul
Decker, Dick Modzeleweski and
Jack Scarbath. who played for
the College All-Stars last night
at Chicago. That makes a tight
fit among those here.
Selections Not Easy.
Choosing the best 80 players
here is no easy task. It's touch
and go in some cases--iust go
in others. The game with the
Rams will have an important
bearing on the immediate cuts,
of course. Some cannon fodder
will be carried for another
month to help out in the five
remaining exhibition games and
every now and then a dark
horse pops out of this group to
win a regular berth on the squad.
At this writing only 81 or %
men who finished the 1852 sea-
son with the club seem sure
to be around for the 1858 cur
tain-raiser. The list includes
Harry Gilmer, Eddie LeBaron,
Julie Rykovich, Charlie Justice,
Johnny Papit, Andy Davis, Chuck
Drazenovich, Dick Alban, john
ny Williams and Harry Dowda
in the backfield.
In the line there are Jim
Ricca, Buddy Brown, Jim Clark,
Knox Ramsey, Laurie Niemi,
Paul Lipscomb, John Yonokar,
Gene Brito, Hugh Taylor, Jerry
HenneSSey and Joe Tereshinski.
Eight Berths Open.
Counting the three from the
All-Star squad, that leaves only
eight berthS open, and competi-
ton for them will be brisk.
Lambeau, naturally, poo-poohs
the idea that his mind is made
up, but the players listed have
been at the head of the class in
training camp.
Although only one practice a
day is scheduled from now until
the game, the Redskins will have
blackboard drills in the after
noon and a meeting at night.
They'll work on Sunday for the
first time tomorrow and meet in
the evening.
The old injury bugaboo has
cropped up again to harasS the
squad in the stretch of prepara-
tions for the Rams, with eight
men on the ailing list. They are

Travers Looks Easy
As Dancer Goes for
4th Spot in Earnings
BY the Associated Press

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N. Y,
Aug. 15.-There is no earthly
reason why Native Dancer, when
this day is done, won't be the
fourth leading money-winning
horse in racing history.
The Dancer, beaten only once,
tackles four so-called rivals this
afternoon in the 84th running
of the Travers Stakes, Oldest
stake race in the country, and
if all start the value will be
$27,9Oo.
Winner Of the mile and one
quarter race gets $18,85O. Vir-
tually every one here expects
the Dancer will be that animal
In this event, Alfred G. Van

hike his total winnings to $677,-
420, moving him from fifth place
past Assault, the 1946 Triple
Crown champion who retired
with $675,470 in his bankroll.
(The race will be televised
in Washington by WTOP,
channel 9, from 5 to $50 p.mO
The 400 set in Saratoga s
boxes and the two-dollar Joe in
the grandstand had little worry
about what the Dancer would
do to his opposition. Their main
concern was whether the Sara

anything but win betting.
Native Dancer has cost race

Mats at Full Strength
|As PorterfieId Risks
Streak in Twin Bill
By Burton Hawkins
Ssar Sseff Correspondent

BOSTON, Aug. 15.-The eyes
Of the baseball world turned
temporarily in this direction to-
day as swift Bob Porterfield at
tempted a fourth successive
shutout for the Mats.
Porterf1eld, who carried a
string of 20 scoreless innings
into his effort against the Red
Sox in the second game of a
double header, was contending
with a perilously close leftfield
fence as he tried for his 18th
victory.
Chuck Stobbs, seeking his
eighth win, was slated to oppose
Ben Flowers in the opener, with
Porterfield due to face Bill
Henry. Porterfield was trying
to become the seventh pitcher
in history to notch four con-
Secutive shutoutS.
WTTG televised the first game
in Washington.
Johnson Missed Record.
Walter Johnson pitched four
successive shutouts for the Mats
in 1913 in starting assignments.
but because a scoreless relief
effort interrupted that streak,
he is not in the record book.
Johnson holds the major league
mark for consecutive shutout
innings. however, with Sc.
Doc White of the White Sox
is the only pitcher ever to hurl
five straight shutouts. He
achieved that distinction in 1904.
Mordecai Brown, Grover Cleve-
land Alexander, Ed Reulbach,
Bill Lee and Sal Maglie since
have pitched four shutouts in
row.
The Mats defense is at full
strength, what with Jim Busby
returning to centerfield and Ed
FitzGerald, Gil Coan, Jackie
Jensen and Pete Runnels recov-
cred from virus infections, but
Porterfield'S only defense against
the leftfield fence-only 315 feet
from the plate-is contained in
his strong right arm.
10000 Wait in Vain.
More than 10000 customers
sat in a steady rain last night
hoping the Mats and Red Sox
would play. but with no letup
in sight General Manager Joe
Cronin called it off at $50. The
clubs will clash in another
double-header tomorrow, with
Spec Shea and Walter Master
son due to fire for the Mats.
Busby, who wrenched his neck
and suffered a bruised side
banging into the centerf1eld wall
to make a sparkling catch at
Griffith Wednesday night, was
available for duty last night and
is expected to play both games
today and tomorrow.
Porterf1eld hasn't lost a game
since July Is. Since then he has
disposed of Cleveland, 4-3; Chi
cago, 20; Cleveland, Ito, and
Boston, 20.
Bob has pitched eight shut
outs this season, the first Wash
ington pitcher to do so since
Johnson accumulated that many
in 1924. Johnson pitched IL
shutouts in 1918.

seven passes for 106 yards. Box,
his opposite number, was in mid
season form with five receptions
for 108 yards.
Walker Fully Recovered.
Walker. who caught eight
passes for 81 yards and also led
both teams in ball carrying, was
constant source of satisfaction
to the Lions because he demon
strated that he was fully re-
covered from injuries which pre-
vented him from playing much
more than half of the 1852 sea-
son.
On the ground the Lions did
little. a tribute to the running
defenses set up by Coach Eddie

The second time the Lions got

9:32 of the first period and each
of the key plays was a pass.
When they finally reached the
5-yard line Hunchy Hoernsch-
meyer took it across on rum
ming plays.
Late in the opening quarter
the Lions started another drive
from their %, again after receiv-
ing a punt. The pros barged
down to the 1-yard line, were
hurled back on third down to
the 3, and cautiously settled for
field goal by Walker, which
made it 1910.

tones-the pros are winners in
more ways than one, because
those who stood out for the van
quished All-Stars today were
joining the National League
teams which had drafted them.
These men played as if they
might be a great help to their
new owners.
Dawson Cheers Green Bay.
The best looking running back
on the field seemed to be Glib
Dawson of Texas, who scored
the All-Stars' only touchdown
on a 17-yard run in the final
period, in addition to kicking a
29-yard field goal. Dawson joins

along with Buck McPhail of
Oklahoma. However, Sears ex-
pressed uncertainty about his
plans after the game.

toward California with no COM

were by no means spectacular.
but they all acted as if they could
hold their own. Dick Oittle Mo-
Modzelewski, 245-pound tackle
from Maryland, played big part
in holding the Lions to 116 net
yards rushing. Paul Decker, end
from Michigan State, was over
shadowed by other ends on both
sides, but his college record rec
ommends him, as does that of
Jack Scarbath. All = America
quarterback from Maryland.
Scarbath, playing with a dis
located index finger on his
throwing hand, completed only
two of a dozen passes but his
receivers on several occasions
dropped easy aerials. When
Scarbath was running the Stars,
instead of Purdue's Dale Sam
uels or Illinois Tommy O'Con-
nell, they seemed to function q
little more smoothly.
Lions Set Three Records.
The real stars of the battle,
of course, were the established
pros, Bobby Layne, Leon Hart,
Doak Walker and Cloyce Box.
Mainly due to the offensive
efforts of this foursome the
Lions rewrote the All-Star game
record book, setting three new
marks and tying another. If you
count the 112 yards Detroit drew
in penalties, they set a fourth
record.
Outrushed and out-flrSt-

periods that they wound up with
