District NAIB Tourney To Be Held in Billings The Billings Shrine will be the site of the district NIAB tourna- ment, March 6 and 7. The original plan called for the first two teams in the Montana College Confer- ence and for two out of three of the following; Montana, Montana State, and Idaho State to par- ticipate in the tourney. Northern will end the season no lower than second place in the conference and they are ineligible to partici- pate so it will numbers 1 and 3 teams fro mthe small conference. To determine which of the three larger schools are to be repre- sented at the tourney, they will play four games with each team and the two with the best per- centages will enter. The winner of the tourney will represent this district at the na- tional NAIB tournament in Kan- sas City. This tournament is for four-year colleges.

The amend- ment read: \Any person missing two consecutive meetings would be suspended from M Club for the remainder of the year and could only be reinstated by pe- tition the following year.\ Harry Manuel was elected vice presi- dent to replace Dick Sitzman, who left for military service.
