Eagles Win
Dawson Meet
Idle This Week

A five team Invitational Track
and Field meet held at Glendive
last Monday was won by the
Eagles of Sidney with a SIS point
total .
Placing second In the meet
was host Dawson county with
40R. Dickinson, N. D. had 31R,
Miles City 20 and Williston, N.
D., 6.
Competing in IA events the To-
cal Eagles took first place rib
bons in eight of them. The team
won a beautiful trophy to add
to their growing collection. Sid
ney was shut out of only two
events both in the field. The
Eagles failed to get a place in
either the shot put or the broad
jump.
Leading the way for the victors
were double winners Doyle Dot
son and John Marman. Doyle
won the 100 yard dash and the
440 plus a third in the 220 and
lead off man on the winning re-
lay team to take top scoring hon.
ors for the meet with 1874. John
won both the discus and javelin
throws. Close behind were Tom
Quilting with 8A points and
Jack Marion with 8.
The javelin throw by Marman
of 1853 feet, one inch, was his
best meet throw of the year.
Dotson's time of 1925 seconds in
the 100 was especially good con-
sidering the soft track. Jack
Marion posted his best time this
year in the mile. A strong finish
by runnerup Caflisch of Miles
City made this event n of the
thrillers of the day.
In six freshmen events with
only four teams competing Sid
ney won easily with a 1914 to-
tai. In second place was Miles
City with 1914 followed by Will
liston Az and Glendive 3R.

Richland County
Cancer Quota
Falling Short

Progress in the American Can
Ger Society Crusade was reported
today as falling a bit behind that
of the same date last year. The
quota for Richland county is ST.
10000 and our crusade for funds
will soon be drawing to a close.
There is no room for compla-
cency in this campaign to save
lives. If all of us do our best, I'm
sure we will finish this job with
a record that this community can
be proud of.
The number of deaths from
cancer is increasing despite the
fact that more lives also are being
saved than previously. 1t is i'm
perative that more and more funds
be made available to combat mans
cruelest enemy. .
The crusade opened here April
l and will continue until April
80, with the rural areas to be
finished by May Is. Inclement
weather has hindered contact OF
some of the outlying communities.
Volunteer workers of the house
to house crusade in the city OF
Sidney are asked to finish their
assignment and turn in their pack
cts to Charles Evanson at the Sid
ney National Bank before the end
of the month.

Congressman
Leroy Anderson
Kiiwanis Speaker

Congressman Leroy Anderson
for this second Montana district,
was the guest speaker at the XII
wants club weekly luncheon at
the Lalonde hotel today noon.
Introduced by Nels Bach, he
expressed confidence in a planned
reduction in the federal budget.
This will mean a tax cut,
'but who is going to realize the
benefit from this cut is certainly
a subject ramified with many
opinions" he said. "We are all
in favor of a budget cut, but
when it hurts our particular
group, then we are less in favor
of it," In as much as farming
economy is still loaded with many
problems, the farming program
doesn't have a favorable outlook,
at least, not in the immediate
future. One of the reasons why
this happens is, for example, the
ch~annelling of about 80 percent
of the available economy into the
Corn Belt on the Soil Land Bank
program. This of course broke
down the farm bloc and formed
a rift between corn producers
and all other farm commodities
producers. Healing of this split
is not f~orseeable in the immediate
future, hence little positive farm
legislation is anticipated" the
congressman said.
Anderson concluded by calling
for questions from the group.
Walt Dasinger asked about the
foreign aid program. Anderson
said that aid in 1947-48 was ben
eficial in fighting communism,
which was recognized and ap-
proved by both parties. But the
recent aid programs have re-
ceived severe crutiny," he said.
He feels that there will be a
substantial cut in some of our
foreign aid. The object of any
foreign aid is to help countries
that might otherwise fall victims
to communism.
Dick Tippett asked about the
relative advantage of reduction in
the national debt and from a
tax cut. Anderson replied that
the policy to be followed is to SO
engineer the overall economy that
it shall be at its peak, and he

people in the interests of complete
cooperation with the statewide

being urged upon every commun-
ity by the state fire marshal's de-
partment.
Deputy Fire Marshal Adair
told The Herald that Sidney has
a splendid volunteer fire depart
ment and to maintain the interest
of the personnel in keeping it at
a high level of effectiveness there
should be no lack of support on
the part of business operators and
home owners. Let's have no

sal slogan in town and country in
the program to prevent them, De-
putty Adair emphasized.
Every community should adopt
an active cleanup campaign and
following r suggestions released
by the state department for carry
ing it out effectively:
"You don't have to wait for
the mercury to rise before insti-
tuting a vigorous cleanup cam

Spring is an ideal time to rid

thousands of fires annually.

ing grounds. And, of course, you
make your plant or store safer
