Lou has the rare combination
of speed as well as power. He may
beat out a bunt or an infield

On June IT he became the sec

st. Louis (ANP) - Prentice
Gautt, the leading rusher for the
st. Louis Cardinals football team
last year, last week signed a 1862
contract with the pro team.
The former University of Okla
homa All-Amer1can netted 523
yards on 129 carries for a Al
average last season to lead the
team. He came to st. Louis last
June in a deal for John Roach.
He was originally assigned to
fullback duties but was moved in
to the halfback slot when injuries
sidelined John Crow and Joe Child
ress.
With Cleveland, who gave him
his first pro job in 1860, Gautt
made 20 carries for 159 yards. He
also caught IL passes for 1872
yards and three touchdowns, and
completed six Of IL passes for
100 yards.

surprising Los Angeles Angels De-
fore a cheering Fenway Park
crowd of 14,o02. Wilson was also
believed to be the first major
league hurler to accomplish this
feat in modern baseball.
Belinsky, who was one Of the
first to congratulate Wilson after
the victory, pitched the first no
hitter of the season, defeating the
Baltimore Orioles, May 5.
The 22O-pound, 6-3 Wilson was
also only the second Negro to hurl
a no-hitter in the majors. Sam
Jones, pitching at the time for the
Chicago Cubs, was the first to
accomplish the feat, defeating the
Pittsburgh Pirates on May IL,
1855.
In pitching the no-hitter Wilson
also became the first Red Sox
hurler to defeat the Angels in
seven games. Wilson likewise
pitched his first complete game
of the season and raised his won
lost record to 6-2.
How He Did It
Furthermore, the fast-balling
Wilson rewarded the confidence
of the Boston brass who stuck
with him despite a streak Of wild
ness extending back some six
years.
Wilson also helped himself to a
salary raise. Boston owner Tom
Yawkey was so elated over the
feat of his husky hurler that he
announced that he was tearing up
Wilson's old contract and giving
him a new one calling for a sub
Stant1al raise.
Wilson's Second Chance
This is Wilson's second chance
with the Red Sox. Fascinated by
his blazing fast ball and sharp
breaking curve, the Beantowners
took him into their fold in 1850,
but he was hampered by wildness
and had a mediocre 80 record. He
was shipped to Seattle in the Pac-
ific Coast League. At Seattle VIII
son, a native of San Diego, COM
piled a Ola record.
Wilson's no-hitter against the
Angels was so masterful that only
two Angels got as far as second
base. He struck out five and walk
ed four batsmen. Included among
his victims was Leon Wagner, the
AL homerIn leader.
After the game, the happy Will
son told how he did it. He said
he used his hopping fastball al
most exclusively. He also mixed
in a few shders. II just threw as
hard as I could all the way" said
Wilson. "T still don't think it's

Ringing The
BELL
BY Jesse Bell

Local tanS can remember back
few years when the Minneapolis
Millers farm club for the parent
Boston Red Sox produced talent
for the American League entry.
Local fans can also remember a
high strung fireballing right hand
er by the name of Earl Wilson
who was being readied for the
majors.
On the night Of June 20 in Fen
way Park, Earl pitched a no-hit
no-run game against the Los An
geles Angels. The six-foot, three
inch right handler flame thrower
of the Red Sox crowned his ac-
complishment by blasting a home
run for the winning tally in his
20 triumph.
The game pitched for the Red
Sox meant a new contract for
Wilson and a raise of $1,000.
The performance brought own
er Tom Yawkey down to the
clubhouse on a rare visit after
the game. He personally con-
graduated Earl and told him he
was getting a new contract.
The moment Gary Geiger in
deep center field had the ball in
his clutches, the entire Sox infield
came rushing to the mound. They
lofted Earl to their shoulders and
were about to carry him collegi-
ate style into the clubhouse, when
the whole mob of players off the
bench, from the bullpen and the
outfield joined the fold.
Last year at Seattle manager
PesIxy couldn't understand why
Earl had losing record. He had
the best arm on the squad, but
he just hadn't learned how to
make the best use Of 1t.
Earl has learned how to control
his temper and his fast ball. It
looks like he is beginning to ar
rive at the brilliance that was
forecast for him.
In the National League hitters
are moaning about the over-pow-
ering fast ball of st. Louis Card
inals right handler Bob Gibson.
Gibsons fast ball is rated with
Sandy Koufax as the leagues best,
So what does Bob come up with
to confuse the batters even more ?
A palm ball, which helps make
Gibsons fast one even more eff
fective.
Baseball fans in st. Cloud, Min

Public Ownership
Pays Big Profit To
State Of Montana

Montana's liquor enterprise devel-
oped more than So million for govern
mental operations the past fiscal year.
the State Liquor Control Board re-
ported this week.
Gov. Tim Babcock was advised that
the total of $8,443,567 is record by
Board Chairman J. Edward Rain of
Lewistown and members Ashton Jones
of Broadus and Oakley E.. Coffee of
Missoula. This compares with the
1861 record total of $7,861, 102.
Since the Legislature created the
Montana Liquor Control Board in
1888, its distribution system has
produced about $133 million for
the state. The first and only legis-
lative appropriation, 100000, was
repaid within the same year, 1884.
Since the liquor system began in
1888, it's revenue has surpassed all
other state-level revenue except that
from motor fuel taxes. However, for
the past fiscal year, motor fuel, in
come and liquor taxes rank 1928.
The liquor total included a record
'$670,996 city and county law en-
forcement tax which the state col
lects as per cent of the retail price
on alcoholic beverages. Incorporated
cities get per cent and counties one
per cent, pro rated on liquor sales
in each jurisdiction.
Liquor revenue which goes directly
into the state general fund included
$2,683,586 from the 16 per cent ex-
else tax, $517,4OO from liquor Ii
censes of bars, $429,525 from beer
licenses and $642,159 beer tax.
"These figures dramatize right
here in Montana how the control
state system benefits the public fl
nancially more than is possible
under the noncontrolled or open
state operation" Rain commented.
"While the IL control states have
less liquor consumption per capita,
the revenue developed for their re-
spective state governments is con-
siderably greater than in open
states"

State House Beat
FRANKLY SPEAKING
By FRANK SMALL

There is not much time between
now and Labor Day but very real
task confronts parents and the edu-
cational system. This has been the
vacation. The child has had a brief
respite from the conformity of the
classroom.
AS pleasurable as the summer hours
have been, a time of decision has
been reached by one fourth of those
of high school age in the Montana
system. They will not go back to
school.
This means that the Montana school
system is only just getting by-a &C"
grade. The rest of the Northwest is
getting by at the same rate-only
three fourths adequate for the chill
dren whom have been entrusted to
popular education, or private tute-
Ilage.
1t is factor to be proud of (if
not satisfied with) in the Northwest
including the Dakotas that we have
such high standard, meeting the
requirements of the children at a
passing grade, because the national
average is so much lower. Only 60
per cent complete high school train
ing in these great United States.
There have been a number of rea-
sons proposed why a young person
should not quit going to high school
the chief reason being that he or
she will not make as much money in /
later life if high school is not COM
pleted-the inability to drain values
from common resource (such as
utility company executives do) at
$4,000 per year plus stock bonuses.
Now, other than what I feel about
it, the problem of the high school
'drop-out is known to you.
You know about the "pecking sys-
tenn whereby young humans emulate
the affairs of the chicken coop where
canabalism, or the picking on the
weak, is a common practice. The girl
just Towering has her mental petals |
plucked because her parents have not |
been aware of, or able to, provide
her with the clothing which is stand
ard for the "peer group" in which |
she must attempt to be social being.
The decision not to go back to
school this fall many times is made
for one reason, clothing. This may

Farm Values Gain
In Montana, USDA
Studies Indicate

BOHEMIAN - The average value
per farm iii Montana increased from
$71,218 to $84,866 between 1859 and
1862, according to M. E. Quenemoe en-,
extension economist at Montana State
College.
In this same period the average
size of farms increased from 2,213
to 1928 acres. This year the land
on the average farm in Montana was
worth $75,004. Buildings were worth
an additional $9,862.
The number of farm title transfers
in Montana decreased from 81 per
1000 farms in 196O-61 to A in
1961-62. r.
A study by the economic research
service of the U. S. Department of.
Agriculture, Quenemoen said. shows
the average value per acre of farm
real estate reached a new high of
1923 per acre in the u. S. in 1862,
5 per cent higher than in the pre-
vious year. The average farm in the
u. S. has 336 acres, and is worth
$41, 400. About $4,000 of this is
accounted for by land, and the bal
ance, $4,000, by farm buildings.

seem trivial but it is a real factor
in the failure of our school system
Males are even more effected by the
clothing factor, perhaps.
The drop-out is also the young per-
son who has been stricken by physical
disability. The simple cold may cost
the nation very able scientist be-
cause of the lack of interest of the
teacher or the wish to slight on the
part of a "peer''. Those who have
been flunked mainly because of lack
of attendance or sickness are apt to
drop out this fall because there has
been no effort on the part of your
local high school to try to get the
work made up this summer Or en-
couragement to the absentee to try
to do better the coming season with
hints on studying, etc. SIS
*fsc* y rstr..f,g
The drop-out will be living, vital
part of America. He may not have
as many dollars to contribute to the
economy but he will be an example
of where America failed in it's duty
to make the free school system work.
The present trend to place first
emphasis on academies and to hell
with the kid trying to figure himself in
this world is thus losing our place
in the world of arts. Arts and crafts
are learned from masters not the
rote learners of physical sciences.
The very few breakthroughs in the
sciences have been made by gifted
persons to whom education has played
only a minor role in bringing the
benefits to the rest of us who must
live our quiet and not so desperate
lives.
If you know lad or lass planning
to drop out of high school, encourage
them to go back this fall. Help them
in any way you know how.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Winston
Churchill, in moment of crisis, once
said:
eve cannot escape our dangers by
recoihng from them. We dare not
pretend such dangers do not exist"
His words come to mind as we
watch our national leaders cropping
for a solution to the domestic eco
nomic crisis. Now they edge closer to
an across-the-board tax cut; then
they pull back The pressures from
all quarters are intense.
Old political foes, such as Ameri-
cans for Democratic Action and the
U. S. Chamber of Commerce, find
themselves in rare agreement on this
point although they undoubtedly have
different ideas about where taxes
should be cut.
The danger, as White House and
Treasury Department experts know,
is that we may expect too much from
a tax cut and get too little. At best
it is only temporary palliative and
1t does not get to the roots
of our domestic troubles, although
it may help "get America moving
again." The effects, however, are
likely to be short-lived if tax cut
is regarded as a panacea and the SUBJ
let-down could produce an
crisis.

There has not been a home-front
development comparable to IVA in
nearly quarter of a century. Yet
nothing helped develop the economy
of the mid-South as IVA by provid-
ng cheap electrical power. Why not
IVA for New England? Why not
utilize the waters of the Connecticut
and its many other rivers? Private
power companies cannot or will not
do this job.
Another kind of job does not re-
quire federal funds. There is a pro-

There has been talk of Domestic
Peace Corps. Fine, let's get it started.
What an education it would be for
our youngsters to meet the slum
jewellers of underdeveloped Harlem
or Chicago and teach them new
trades.
A domestic aid program does not
mean an end to foreign aid, it
would recognize that we are in
trouble ourselves. After all faith
