ANNUAL SCHOOL
CARNIVAL OPENS

activity schedule the annual

year the festivities will begin in
the high school auditorium at
7:30 pm. April 8 with a special
school-wide variety talent show.
This program will be held only

Promotion Of Indian Village To Be
Discussed At Meeting Friday Evening

Those persons interested in the
promotion of a teepee village
during the Governors Confer
ence are reminded that an open
meeting has been scheduled for
Friday evening, April 8, to be
held in the agency barracks
building starting at 8 o'clock.
Conflicting circumstances con-
tributed to only a small repre-
sentation at the first meeting
last week, so it was decided to
hold a second meeting in hopes
of getting a larger turnout and
a more general opinion of the
businessmen and community.
The general idea is to set up
a teepee village of 10 or II tee
pees on or near the museum
grounds. The encampment would
be set up a couple of days be
fore the start of the conference
and remain there until two or
three days after closing.
Purpose of the encampment
would be to attract the Govern
ors and the convention-going
tourist, and to extend a welcome
from the Blackfeet tribe and
Browning to all who stopped.
General feeling, insofar as we
have been able to learn, is that
the time and expense would well
be worth the undertaking in that
chances of considerable national
publicity would result through
the numerous reporters and pho
tographers who will follow the
almost every move of the gov
errors ard their parties.
Financing is the main question
and about the only problem that
will be difficult to work out, but
it is felt that with the co-opera-
ton of all it can be solved at a
nominal figure.
All businessmen and anyone
else with ideas on such a promo
ton are urged to attend. The
meeting is open to the public.

Yielding Fair Return

3.78 per cent, over the COM
parable period a year ago.
The PUG staff had fore
cast a rise of 5.23 per cent, or
about $4,000 more than the
actual increase.
According to the report use
of tokens has been greater than
had been estimated. This
however, is offset by several
factors, Mr.. Falk said.
Drop Not as Great
One, the report said, is that
the drop in total passengers
as a result of the fare increase
has been slightly less than an
ticipated. Another, Mr.. Falk
reported, is that the operating
cost is less than the estimate
uSeu III Cne raCe proceeding.
Qualifying the conclusions,
Mr.. Falk noted that the figures
for the three months take in
depreciation on new buses, and
it is not contemplated that any
additional buses will be bought
during the remainder of the
year. The company, the report
went on, will incur an addi-
tional 1-cent-an-hour cost-of-
living increase in August along
with an additional 5-cent-an-
hour wage increase in De-
cember.
Whether or not this in
crease in costs will be sufficient
to warrant some increase in
fares cannot be predicted" the
