LoPresti is a dedicated student
of the hardcourt game and is a
fierce competitor.
He imbues this same spirit and
dedication in his players so that
they always seem to give that ex-

is the difference between victory
and defeat.
A stern master, LoPresti
gives his charges . thorough
grounding in fundamentals and
then fashions highly-polished
stars.
An indication of how dedicated
he is to the game, LoPresti once
was told by a sportswriter he
noticed a news picture of one of
his players going in for a shot.
The picture caught the player in
in a very graceful pose, and the
writer commented on it.
LoPresti's quick reply was "did
he make the shot-that's the i'm

Army Has New Sled-Mounted
 Shelter For Use In Frigid Climate

CT, and in mess Wanigan the chairs and tables fold against the wall. All of the Wanigans can be disassembled completely, or eight feet of each end of the 12 and 24-man units. containing the bulk of the equipment-heat- CTS, snow melters,-can be left intact and the center section dis assembled and stored therein and in separate packages.
 The medium and large Wani- gans are constructed of stress cover plywood panels two inches thick with one-fourth inch ply wood faces and fiberglass insul- ation in the panel cavity. The small Wanigans are made of plas- tic panels two inches thick with plastic-fiberglass cloth cover bonded to a single veneer of plywood which, in turn, is bonded to a two inch Styafoam core. This results in a lightweight panelized enclosure.
 The new Wanigans will be en- gineering and user tested by the U. S. Army Engineer Re search and Development Detach- ment and the U. s. Army Trans portation Corps on the icecap in Greenland, beginning this m on ta1. The Transportation Corps Heavy Sled Company is the prime user of Wanigans as their organizational equipment.

Bras, Background And Bringingg-Up Boost Big Busts

LONDON, R II "In America, a bosom is quite simply regarded as a good thing. English bosoms are ss-conscious."
 That's the verdict of 30-year- old Mary Tuck, Oxford graduate and onetime English teacher at the University of Pittsburgh. Her views are advanced in a new book, 'The Intelligent Woman's Guide To Good Taste"
 Miss Tuck's theory of class conscious cleavage is based on bras, background and upbring- ing and gives the biggest boost to the lower class bust. Put an- other way, she says the upper class bust needs big boost.
 Look under fashionable hunt ball, she says, and you will find the upper class are super troopers.
 "The reasons for this are an interesting subject for specula- tion," she continues. q think the most probable is that starchy feeding at fashionable girls schools produces unusually hefty figures in the adolescent (upper class) female"
 The heavy strain put on pee toral muscles at a comparatively early age causes the sag, she said, and mo one bothers to see she is properly corseted"
 So when this girl reaches the age of debutante parties and hunt balls, her figure is perman- ently damaged.
 But her (working class) sisters, who have been buying them selves properly fitting brassieres out of their wages since the age of IS, have far less to contend with"

Hotel Saturday noon for a no.
host luncheon followed by an in
formal hour of visiting and remi-
niscing. That evening a six o'clock
banquet was held in the hotel
dining room for all class mem
bers, their husbands and wives.
Don Nutter, presiding as toast
master, read excerpts from the
1882 annual edited by the class,
and the 1888 senior annual. He
stressed the stories about the
members present and the future
which was forecast for each. This
brought out much discussion and
proved very entertaining.
Each member was called on to
introduce his or her husband or
wife, after which the group adj
journed to the Elks Club for a
dancing party.
A potluck picnic at the High
School Park Sunday afternoon
concluded this very successful
anniversary event. Mark Fawcett,
the only member of the high
school faculty at that time who
was available, and Mrs. Fawcett
were picnic guests.
Plans were made at this time
to hold another meeting in five
years, in celebration of the both
anniversary of the class. All in
attendance left a complete rec
ord of their addresses, occupa-
tons, etc., which will be compiled
by a committee and a copy of
each sent to all members not
able to be here. Similar data
from those not present will be
solicited and by the time the
class holds its next reunion it is
hoped that there will be a COM
plete record of all members
available and that many more OF
the members will be present.
Those who came the longest
distance for this class reunion
were Evelyn Peterson Kerney of
Rochester, N. Y, and Reatha My
ers Larson of Longview, Wn.,
both of whom were accompanied
by their families.
Others outside the Sidney area
were Vesta Coffrin Ahlquist of
Billings, Douglas Ferris of Hell

Miles City, DR.. Malvin Klette of
Havre, Thomina Walstad Brown
of Circle, Eddie McGrane Of
G~lendive, Ida Bergstadt Seeve
and Kenneth Clark of Savage and
May Folkvord Chase of Fairview.
All members of the class whose
addresses were known were con-
tacted, several of whom replied
telling their location and occupa-
ton. OF these, one, Ruth Cowden
Petersen is in Panama and Alvin
Simonsen is in Alaska.
Arrangements for this very
successful event were handled by
