On the basis of scoring, however, the Brown broth- ers, Hank and Fay, connected with the net four times apiece from the field, most of the tosses being of the long distance varicty. the alumni, the work of Jimmy Olson, Johnny Lofthouse and Willis Shepard stood out. Olson has lost none of his old cunning at advancing the ball while Lofthouse and Shepard were the bulwark of the defense. After fighting through the first 20 minutes with honors even but the prep five leading because of} Hank Brown's three sensational | shots from midfloor which set the count at 14 to 9 at the halfway) mark, the alumni were exhausted an offered only a half-hearted bat- tle in the second half.

King Football Closes 1927 Season as Penn and California Clash The reign of King Football in central California collegiate circles for 1927 day as grid teams of the University of Pennsylvania and California faced each other in an intersectional con- test. A fast field was assured, due to the canvas covering that has kept the turf dry during the past week, and with both elevens featuring a wide open passing attack, a free scoring game was forecast. Approx- imately 30,000 tickets have been sold and the ‘tickets that will be disposed of at the gate are expected to raise the attendance to 50,000. California had a weight advantage of approximately 11 pounds to the man, but the attack of the Quakers hinged upon speed and deception rather than to weight.

WINS ~ OVER BUD TAYLOR IN THIRD FIGHT > | - 'Comish Establishes New York} Boy as King of Feather- weights New York, Dec. 31.—(?)—Tony Canzoneri of Brooklyn, had b= lished himself as the prevailing featherweight champion of the New York state athletic commission t day by virtue of a hard-earned vic- tory over the slashing Bud Taylor, jof Terre Haute, Ind. Meeting for the third time in a roped square, the battlers engaged in a furious 10-round combat before 14,000 spectators in Madison Square Garden last night. Although Taylor waged a stiff offensive, ringside experts credited Canzoneri with the edge in seven rounds, gave Taylor two, while one; was even. Canzoneri weighed 125 1-2 pounds, four pounds more than his rival. In previous tussles between the pair, Taylor took the verdict once, while the other resulted in a draw. The action of the state athletic ed ete in recognizing Can- {zoneri as the featherweight cham- | pion, developed another title di: pute as the Pennsylvania commit sion backs the title claim of Benny| Bass, of Philadelphia, who defeated Red Chapman of Boston. A match between Canzoneri and Bass, to set- tle the conflicting claims, is now in prospect. Receipts aggregated $46,490. Mandan Young Bucks Defeat Old Warriors | 26-8 in Loose Game} Coach Leonard McMahan’s Man- 'dan High cagers played ragged but none the less superior basketball to beat an Alumni outfit Friday night by a score of 26 to 8 on the Braves’ ‘warground. After the first quarter there was not much doubt as to the outcome of the loosely played contest, the young bucks gallivanting around the old warriors steadily and rolled up their winning count like clock- work, id . Burdick and Owens bore the brunt of the offensive and defensive work of the alums while McMahan’s performers offered no outstanding net artists. The contest between the State Training school five and the Wash- burn independer‘s was indefinitely canceled when both busses and trains proved unreliable means of transportation to the would-be in- vaders from the north intry. Sti Tough for Irish , Notre Dame learned in 1927 that a schedule can be made too hard for even an institution that has a squad of over 100 players. But the South Bend team will have another load in 1928 against Georgia Tech, Army, Navy, Southern California and others.

New York, De football needs is less its stars and more about its teams; as a whole, in the opinion of W. W.| Roper, newly elected president of the American Football Coaches’ as- sociation. Princeton's football mentor, at the annual banquet of the coaches’ as- sociation last night, declared him- self opposed to the practice of some sports writers who devote long col- umns of space to the accomplish- ments of some backfield sensations and dismiss the remainder of the team with bare mention. “Some of these fellows that get in the headlines,” he said, “possibly may have done less than any oth man on the team to win the game. What I should like to see is these sensational stars put in their proper place. Considerztion should be given to the , guards, tackles and ends who are ‘clearing out the op- posing line so that the backfie man can get away on his long runs.” There still is plenty of room for the development of football, Major John L. Griffith, com foner of the Big Ten and executive secretary of the National Amateur Athletic Federation, told the coaches, citing the growth in college population and the abundance of money as two fac- tors which led him to believe the peak has not yet been reached. Iowa Track Stars Will Compete For Yank Olympic Team Iowa City, Ia., Dec. 31.—Frank J. Cuhel of Cedar Rapids and Leonard E. Hunn of Davenport, both veterans on the University of Towa track team, will compete in the final trials for the 1928 American Olympic team to be held at Cambridge, Mass., July 6 and 7. Cuhel, who is western conference titleholder in the 220 yard low hurdles for 1926 and 1927 with a time of43 2-10, will enter the trials for the 100 meter hurdle event. Hunn will choose between the 5,000 meter run and the 3,000 meter steeple chase for his Olympic trials. Besides being individual champion in the Big Ten cross-country race in 1926, Hunn won the indoor two mile! title last year. i Badgers Confident Hockey Team Will Make Good Record Madison, Wis., Dec. 31—The Wise consin hockey team under the coach- ing of Johnny Farquhar is due for a successful season if advance in- dications mean anything.

Three Outstanding Achieve- ments Cited by Secretary—| Establishment of Communi- ty Chest, Sponsoring of Au- to and Style Show, and Ini- tiation of Park Board Move- ment “More civie and community good has been done by the citizens of Bis- marck working as a unit during 1927 than in any previous year,” H. P. Goddard, secretary of the Association of Commerce, said today in reviewing the year’s activ: as sponsored through the Association of Commerce. “The general prosperity of the country and city is reflected in the prosnerity of the association itself which ends the year in the best con- dition financially of any since it was| organized,” said Mr. Goddard. “Looking ahead to 1928 and the ars to follow, the board of direct- ors and the members of the Asso- ciation of Commerce feel that a com- ive program of civic and com- progress has been adopted that will reap golden benefits for the Missouri Slope,” said Mr. Goddard. “We have not chosen a hit-or-miss plan of development, rather have we stressed the idea that a well-| rounded program, slowly and surely | developed from well laid plans, will bring maximum benefits. 1928 Program in the Making “At the present time we are com- pleting our program for 1928, a pro- gram that will be as easily adaptable to other years after that. In Jan- uary we will have an_ association meeting at which the plans will be discussed and the activity program outlined and approved by the mem- bers. “There have been three outstanding achievements initiated and developed by the association during the past year. They are, first and foremost, the establishment of the Community Chest, second, the sponsoring of the auto and style show, and third, the initiation of the movement to create a park board. * “Other projects that have been sponsored and are considered out- standing accomplishments were the founding of the spring peony show of the highly successful baseball tournament, the aid and assistance given the national directors of the nation’s first transcontinental air derby, and the arrangements made for the visit and lectures by Roald Amundsen, the famous Arctic ex] plorer. “The Community chest has that could been developed by the citizens of the city in many years and for that reason 1927 will always be regarded as a red-letter year.

At the present time, the lack of a commun- ity building or any building large enough to house the exhibits threat- ens the continuation of this affair ‘or the next few years at least. It was one of the most successful shows that Bismarck has even held and was practically a self-supporting prop- osition. “More than 10 years ago, the citi- zens voted tu establish a park board. The law permitting the creation of and physical troubles and_ the efficient conduction of the municipal tourist camp. | Several Conventions Here “Bismarck, considering its inade- quate facilities for caring for con- ventions, has had its share during the past year. Notable among them’ were the North Dakota Educational association meeting, the state bar association convocation, the North Dakota State Baptist association meeting, and others, “More than 1,200 cheering kiddies and close to 100 needy families pro- vided with Christmas baskets, testi- fied to the good that resulted from the initiating of the Community Christmas program and welfare idea which the service clubs had so ably handied prior to this time and which this year proved to be the largest ever handled by the Christmas com- mittees. “Hundreds of letters have been written in the past year to denne all over the United States and Can- ada who have sought information of Bismarck or the Slope country. Each of these letters carried liter- ature depicting the advantages of living here. Community Building Big Need | “Bismarck needs a community building. The need becomes ‘more ed dpe every year as association and organizations of various kinds pass up consideration of Bismarck as a convention city because we do not have a large enough auditorium. Seeing that such a building is con- structed should be one of the major activities of the association in the next few years. “More and more the association is becoming a clearing house for infor- mation of all types—travel, agricul- tural, weather, road conditions, civic, community, convention and many others. restricting solicitations for funds, advertisements and other ventures that might be of more harm than good to citizens.” The officers for the past year were: H. J. Duemeland, president; A. W. Mundy, vice president; R. P. Logan, treasurer; and H. P. Goddard, secretary. Officers for 1928 are: S. W. Cor- win, president; J. C. Taylor, vice president; R. P. Logan, treasurer; and H. P. Goddard, secretary.

His records show that the total esti- mated cost of the 60 new homes for whch permits were granted dusing 1927 is $215,475. ee Seventeen new business buildings were given permits during 1927, the total estimated value of which was placed at $115,275. ‘ Permits were granted for 27 pri- vate garages during the year, with while alterations estimated to cost $18,250 were made on 23 buildings here and miscellaneous construction work totaled $33,300. Totals Nearly $500,000 This brings a grand total of $388,- 808 for the year, as shown by the building inspector's permit book. such a board was allowed to lapse between that time and this until the Association of Commerce initiat- ed the lire year the real establish- ment of a body that means the fu- ture building of municipal play- grounds and a beautiful park system along the Missouri river.

Kitchen, Commis- sioner of Agriculture, Prepares Review ,, Prospects are more than ordinar- ily bright for-bumper crops in North Dakota next year, according to Jo- seph A. Kitchen, commissioner of bide and labor. cS review of e crop year, made by Mr. Kitchen, follows: is By Joseph A. Kitchen North Dakota was a favored area of the United States in 1927. Throughout the state conditions for crop production were excellent. It was rather an unusual season inas- much as crops were uniformly good scorn, wheat, flax, potatoes, Tay. The eastern part of the state had considerable moisture in the spring and this meant that the drier west- ern part had ample for the best yields. And there is considerable variation in precipitations in this state. Eastern Cass county, accord- ing to the U. 8, weather bureau re- rts, has an annual drop of 26 inches; parts of the western slope receive an annual precipitation of 16 to 18 inches. The year 1927 was one of the best the western part ever saw. Everything that was planted thrived. Grains and feed crops alike were of bumper HDS parisons Then, an unusual amount of snow fell cov- ering to a considerable depth the entire southern half of the state. What a fine condition for winter wheat and winter rye! As we can- not rely on a blanket of snow for this winter crop protection very lit- tle winter wheat is seeded. As rye is much hardier there is a largo acreage in for 1928. Conditions for this are perfect. Plenty of Feed While Noigd snow-covered part of the stat requires more feeding there is an abundance of feed on hand. Last year was lavish in heavy growth of all feeds. This was well jtored and conserved. The snow as- sures those in the western part that thfe outlook for 1928 is far above nor- mal. There will be a good acreage planted for 1928. With the increase of dairy stock larger tracts have been reduced to tame grasses, clov- ers, alfalfa and other such fields for pasture and hay. As North Dakota has steadiliy progressed in butter fat production, the prices on dairy products have been an added inducement to get ar ta x Beicee on grains. prices for poultry and eggs have been good. In the ea vorn eel of the state the venture in sugar. beets has proved a splendid and paying matter in crop diversifica- tion. It will be noted that large luring growing season in This labor is a neces- ‘ard, 818 Fifth street, $200, | Where coal is mined eno: Wm. S.
